The heavens begin from the Daluo Hall

Chapter 20
Countless stars are shining, gathered into a majestic and magnificent picture, Wu Ming stands under the starry sky, as if he can touch the sky.

"I made a lot of money in the first world, which is enough to support the tickets to travel through the [-]th world. Then I can try to be bolder in the choice of the second world." Wu Ming thought deeply.

In the Daqin and Blue Star worlds, he felt quite oppressed by the environment, so this time he must travel to a world where the source energy is extremely active.

Secondly, the [Strange Immortal System] has only reached the fourth step at present. If you want to go on in the future, you must learn from many systems. Poor, and the cultivation system must have full potential and a solid foundation.

However, in a world where the source of energy is active and the energy level is high, the practice system will not be too bad.

As soon as the three key words 'peer body', 'above level four', and 'source of energy active' came out, countless stars in the Atlas of the Heavens immediately retreated, but there were still many left.

Wu Ming frowned, and couldn't help but add various restrictions on "Oriental Civilization", "Extraordinary Side" and "Humanity".

Because in the heavens, the world energy level is not equal to everything. Sometimes there are always some civilizations that can ascend mechanically, have super technology, and some first-level worlds that are 'harmless to humans and animals' may have to stumble even if the true immortal deity enters.

Finally, after searching for a long time, he selected a world.

"Spiritual cultivation... is interesting." Wu Ming's eyes light up slightly. The world he lives in is more suitable for spiritual and soul-side cultivation systems, such as sanctification of the physical body. The quality of the body is exaggerated. The magnetic field is distorted, and the sky falls apart.

In addition, the influence of the Guixian system is also transmitted from the concept to the lower layers, and the soul is nourished more, and may have a greater first-mover advantage.

"It's just... a sixth-level world?!" Wu Ming hesitated, but decided after a while: "It doesn't matter, it's still the same sentence."

The national teacher is as stable as an old dog. This wave is called steady with recklessness, and recklessness with finesse.

In an instant, Wu Ming's true spirit came out of his body, carrying his consciousness, wrapped in a layer of mighty force, soaring into the sky, turning into a bright meteor, passing across the picture scroll, and submerged in a huge blue-purple star, the world shook suddenly, a kind of nobleness The majestic breath spread.

…………

In the third year of Xingwu in the Han Dynasty, Jinan County and Yangqiu County.

At this early morning, the sound of a young man reading a book came from a mansion on North Street.

"Heaven's mandate is nature, willfulness is Dao, and cultivating Dao is teaching. Dao is one that cannot be separated even for a moment; if it can be separated, it is not Dao..."

The courtyard is not big, but it is full of warmth, and there is a clear spring flowing slowly. The environment is very quiet. There is a courtyard in the middle, which is very delicate. There is a fence around it, and some high-quality polished rice and grains are planted. Full-bodied, full of vitality, the growth is very gratifying.

The young man casually spread a layer of bamboo mats in the backyard, sat cross-legged, held a copy of "The Doctrine of the Mean" and read it like this. , combined with Wanguan’s family fortune, it’s not so easy for ordinary people to come into contact with the extraordinary.”

This young man is naturally Wu Ming who passed through the body of the same body. He was crowned at the age of twenty. He sighed and said to himself: "That's right, ascetics are the representatives of the highest force in the world. Compared with modern times, they are the military. They are even stronger than those soldiers who master guns." Horror, transcendence, human nukes."

"Even joining the army requires an innocent family and a famous name for generations, let alone a cultivator who has mastered great power. How can he succeed without guarantee?"

Here the importance of personal connections and background is highlighted. Common people in this world have no background and cannot find a reputable person to guarantee. If he was elected at will, who would be the one to become a heretic?

But having fame is different. First of all, he is a scholar. He is included in the system in a feudal society with strict rules and regulations. He has a vague official guarantee. He wants to have many opportunities to practice Taoism. ah?

"Sure enough, the reliability of class is more important than anything else. It doesn't matter if the common people have outstanding talents and character. If you want to practice Taoism, you should obediently study the right way." Sitting on the straw mat, Wu Ming looked down at a book of the mean and couldn't help but laugh.

He discovered that the world he was traveling in had already achieved great unification, and its name was "Han", which seemed to be different from the "Great Han Empire" in the history of the previous and present lives. Therefore, as a sixth-level extraordinary world, it had extremely strict control over monasticism.

There is no way, after all, the inevitable path of centralization, Wu Ming has been traveling to the world of Emperor Han for three years, and he has only done one thing, which is to study hard and earn fame.

Fortunately, the original family was in good condition, barely regarded as a scholarly family, counting from his grandfather to him, three generations were scholars, and his grandfather was a high-ranking official with a rank of a thousand stones. In the county, the power of appointment is only the long history under the prefect and Junwei.

With a wide network of contacts and a clean family, this is the initial qualification for cultivating Taoism.

Even so, in my memory, I had to read and write since I was a child. At the age of twelve or thirteen, I had to travel around with my father to increase my knowledge. After my father became an official, he returned to his hometown of Yangqiu County. A Cao official (ancient civil servant), honed in the official office, and watched his character and talent by the way.

Of course, the way forward is also clear. One is to follow the path of his father and ancestors, accumulatively promoted to become an official, two hundred stones, six hundred stones, and finally one thousand stones to the top. He is protected by the dragon's official spirit. Do not obey.

The second is to become a cultivator in the county and become an apprentice under the Taoist sect, and gradually promote according to the progress of practice, Taoist soldiers, immortal officials, and then promoted to the county as 'Jingpingwei' or 'Dangmosi', noble and transcendent.

The two paths are gradual, and both have their own advantages and disadvantages. The former can achieve extraordinary power without hard work, but power is bound by the system, and after becoming an official, he is relegated to a mortal and dies of old age.

The latter's great strength belongs to himself, transcending the common world, but if he has no talent, it is nothing but a waste of time. That's how it went down.

From here, Wu Ming could see that the rules of the Great Han Empire were clear, fair and reasonable, and there were many and wide channels for civilians to rise up. His grandfather walked up slowly from a white body.

It stands to reason that he has the foundation laid by the original body, and he just chooses a path after crossing over, so why should he spend three years in "empty time"?

"Sure enough, no matter which world you are in, there is an invisible gap in the channel leading to the upper layer." Wu Ming let out a long breath, and the fragrance of green grass entered his nose.

The magistrate of a county, Bailihou, looks majestic, and Jingpingwei Dangmosi, a master of Taoism, looks noble, but in fact he is not considered a mainstay in the eyes of the empire. He is dead and fallen, and a lot of people will fill in at any time. Have as much as you want.

Being an official with a thousand-stone ceiling, cultivating the Dao Jingpingwei is the top, and there are very few people who have transcended.

But if you want a decent and bright future, the only way to become an official is to worship a great Confucian as your teacher and treat the classics!The only way to practice Taoism is to join the local Daoist sect and the Taoist palace in the county, and learn the truth!
After that, you can sit on the border officials of two thousand shi, protect your family property from falling, and be included in the aristocratic family, and then you can enter the Dragon Court as a mage, worship the great sect and become a real person, and the soldiers will not be ignorant, and you will sit and watch the wind and clouds surge.

"It should be like this." Wu Ming put away the scriptures and stood with his hands behind his back, with a relaxed expression, not knowing what he was thinking of.

In fact, everyone knows the "bright and righteous way", but almost no one can do it. Qi Tongwei, who is analogous to human righteousness, understands that if you have the ability, you have to be rich and powerful. At least take a rich family as your wife and ask the old man to write a letter of recommendation Believe it or not, civilians can only rely on luck.

Wu Ming relied on luck. He had just crossed over three years ago when he heard that Chen Ping, the new Qingzhou shepherd, was passing by Jinan County. The children of scholars in Jinan County, by the way, recommend talents.

Then, either by relying on the newcomer's good fortune converted from welfare and the effect of Suihou Zhu's suppression of fate, or the original background is clean, and his father and grandparents have a lot of connections, someone mentioned it next to Zhou Mu, so Wu Ming was caught by Chen Ping. In the photo, he was accepted as a registered disciple on the spot.

Three years, two years of studying with the teacher, the remaining year was sent by Chen Ping, and he returned to Jinan County to serve as the deputy accountant (responsible for population statistics) of [-] shi. With the title, all kinds of benefits such as exemption from corvee, no need to pay taxes, and the ability to purchase extraordinary items are all given.

Moreover, the power of statistical population, a typical lowly position, is at least at the department level in modern times. The deputy director of a certain office is also in the county. The starting point is several steps higher than that of the original father and ancestor. , Turning to the Dao Road can also be formally included in the County Middle Dao Palace, and gradually promoted to the Continent Dao Court.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Originally, Wu Ming planned to make some achievements during his tenure, impress his teacher, and officially accept him as a student. However, Yuanben's father died of illness. According to the custom of a big man, he had no choice but to resign and return to mourn for three months.

He even wondered if he was the lone star of Tiansha, and his peers in the past were all "orphans". Since time travel, Wu Ming was still uneasy. He didn't know how to get along with his original father, and then he died of illness after three years outside. ? !Perfect solution to the problem, but it's not the right time.

If Chen Ping is still there, Wu Ming can go back to Jinan County to serve as the chief accountant of the two hundred stones after observing his filial piety. Chen Ping is gone...

Don't think about it, once the backer is gone, even if you go back, you will be "leveled" to some idle positions. It's better not to go back. After all, the rule of the mean, the disciple of Chen Ping, with a clean background and no defects in moral character (Shou Xiao March), a proper young man Talented people have already seen it in the eyes of those with a heart. Waiting for three or four years to "raise filial piety" is the most upright way.

"But I can't wait." Wu Ming sighed.It is very taboo to stay in one state for a long time in cultivating the Tao. If you don’t have that rushing energy, you will exhaust your energy when you stop, and there is no great way to speak of.

He rolled up Zhongyong and clapped his hands, paced back and forth, and finally looked at an ancestral hall in the courtyard, making up his mind.

At this moment, suddenly a maidservant ran all the way from the front yard to the back yard carrying her skirt and shouted: "Young Master! Something is wrong, Zhao Yi's evil wolf led people to wander around the main entrance of the mansion again."

　What two hundred stones and six hundred stones are official titles and ranks, and salary treatment, similar to the nine-rank official system, department level and division level.There are also nouns such as Dao Bing and Immortal Officials. You don’t need to memorize them. It will slowly unfold with the protagonist’s experience later on. I gave a general impression. If you can understand it, you can basically straighten out some of the background.
