Hou Tiao slowly walked back to his residence in the south of the city in the drizzle. It was no longer the big mansion before his father left, but an ordinary small courtyard. He had filled all his wealth into the huge pit of cultivation. Here, there hasn't been much in return.

For a person who grew up in a family environment like him, the childhood memories are actually lacklustre, and the boring and complicated rules are the only thing that accompanied him growing up, instead of having a lot of time to play like other children, even reading, is also the piano. Chess, calligraphy and painting, all schools of thought.

Therefore, his character is actually a bit paranoid, which is also an inevitable result for people who grew up in a legal education environment.

Without friends, even the contacts that his father had made all his life were offended by him, and he was called an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.

It is said that paranoid people are more likely to succeed, but he is getting deeper and deeper in the quagmire of failure.

Apart from him, there is only one old servant in the family, Uncle Sun; it's not that he can't afford more servants, but that no one wants to be with a boss like him, and when he goes out to buy groceries, people will stare at him, keep him at a respectful distance, and even be ignored by others. Fist waiter, who can hold on to ordinary people?

Uncle Sun is an old man who follows his father, and he is taciturn; but no matter how honest he is, he still has heard about everything that happened in the government office today, so he doesn't need to inquire about it. The unfinished fireworks in front of the door explain everything.

"Master..."

Hou Tiao waved his hand, "Hou's family is over, there is no suspense anymore; Uncle Sun, how much money is left in the account?"

Uncle Sun said tremblingly: "Young Master, you just bow your head once, Master had so many friends during his lifetime, there is always a chance to forgive..."

Hou Tiao smiled wryly, "They are the ones who stepped on me the hardest! Why bother to humiliate themselves? The old Hou's family can't afford to lose this person!"

Sun Bo grabbed his sleeve and said earnestly, "Or, young master, let's go! Go to other cities, other countries, can there be no future with young master's ability? The most important thing is to bloom and flourish, and leave it to the Hou family. A bloody mess."

Hou Tiao's attitude was very firm, and he grabbed Uncle Sun's hand, "Uncle Sun, you can't escape, have you ever heard of anyone in this world who can escape the pursuit of Daomen? Not to mention other countries, I can't even get out of Fufeng City Go, it's a joke to be caught again.

Time is running out, Sun Boxiu wants mother-in-law and mother-in-law to deal with the business as soon as possible. "

Uncle Sun was in tears. He had served the old master all his life, and now he has been reduced to such a state after only a few years with the young master. It is really impossible to imagine how the young master got himself into this situation?

But there is one thing, the master and the young master have the same temper, they say what they say, and there is no change in what has been decided, so what can he do as an old servant with little knowledge?
"... There are more than 600 taels of silver in the family account. This is living money, and there are some things..."

Hou Tiao nodded, he didn't need it anymore, "Give 200 taels to Sister Hua in Kuanjiexixiang, even if it is to thank her for helping her all these years; you can keep the rest of the grandsons for the elderly, including this one. house.

I think no one will chase after me after I leave. If you really can't stand the harassment, Uncle Sun, then sell your house and go back to the countryside. "

Sister Hua in the wide streets and narrow alleys, um, is a widow; in fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows what she can help; for Hou Tiao, no one wants to marry his daughter to him, and it is against the law to go to the place of fireworks, so can only compromise...

Uncle Sun was a little hesitant, "Master, Sister Hua gave birth to a son the year before last..."

Hou Tiao turned around and walked towards the study, "That's not mine... Just do as I say, do it."

In addition to comforting him, Sister Hua actually comforted other people. For a foreigner, a person with his temper is too boring and has no fun at all. He knows this well.

His interpersonal relationship is very simple, and he is alone, which is probably the final destination of all the cruel officials.

Walking into the study room, apart from a wall full of Anhe laws, the only oddities on the bookshelves are some books about spiritual practice. Of course, there are no special treasures. With his aptitude, even these mainland products can’t understand. Not to mention other advanced Taoism.

Sitting down in front of the book case, looking back on his life, his mood is a little gloomy. He has realized the original sin of his current outcome. He thinks that he can show his ambitions by stepping into the Taoist path. In fact, Taoism is the same as ordinary officialdom. What kind of status and strength do you have? What kind of deeds can we do, how can we only rely on ideals?

There is a book on the top of the desk - A Brief Introduction to the Great Dao; he has read this book countless times over the years, and I am afraid that he will never have such an opportunity in the future...

The way of human cultivation in Splendid Continent began 500 years ago, when inspiration began to recover; so there is the current saying of 1453 in Splendid Calendar, but in various countries, people are still more accustomed to using the reign name of the current dynasty , For example, in Anhe Kingdom, now is the 13th year of Anhe Yuanhao, and the 13th year of Emperor Yuanhao's accession to the throne.

The inspiration came to light, and human beings immediately began the era of self-cultivation. This is a watershed, and the entire continent is fundamentally different from the previous Splendid. After more than a thousand years of changes, the current continental pattern has gradually formed, and the cultivation of the Splendid Continent is unique to it. world.

He doesn't understand things that are too profound, and he doesn't need to understand them. His current strength may not be able to understand so much; .

Pulsating, entraining qi, cultivating yuan, bigu, connecting bridge, tongxuan... are the cultivation levels within his cognitive range, and there are more, but he can't know it. As a person, he has not really entered the Taoist gate. It's just a coincidence that Ono Xiu, who succeeded in pulsating, said that he was a Taoist disciple and overestimated him.

He is now at the most basic pulsation entry stage, but the wind patroller Chong Ling is an expert who has reached the bridge level, and he is only one step away from Tongxuan, which is very important for people who practice Taoism, because I can fly!

is a watershed.

Generally, non-systematic practitioners like him, if they have the opportunity to step into the pulsating state, they will usually seek the opportunity to join the real Taoist sect after consolidation; it is not that he has tried it, but unfortunately, people do not accept him because his qualifications are rubbish .

This is undoubtedly a great insult to a young man full of ambition who has just entered the Taoist path. As a result, the Hou family's relatively rich family wealth was squandered in just two years. In the eyes of a considerable fortune, it is nothing in the world of practice.

Hou Tiao also finally understood that there was a reason why other Taoist sects looked down on him, and it wasn't intentional targeting; in fact, among people like him who stumbled into the Tao by mistake, nine out of ten people had such a result.

As a result, there is one less penance in the world, but one more cruel official.

Hugh asked every person, but he forgot to say anything when he was frustrated.
