Chapter 55 Ancient Inkstone Competition
"baby?"

When Fang Dushu heard this name, he would think of children.

Why would a child set up a dharma altar?
Fu Shiqing seemed to see Fang Dushu's doubts.

Explain to him next to him: "The baby is Aunt Huang's daughter Fu Yuqing. She was born with fair skin, like a ceramic doll, and the tribe has always called her that."

"Is that the disciple of the Zhenwen Sect?"

"Well, she is also Senior Liang's junior sister."

"The monks who can join the Zhenwen School must have excellent literary qualifications. She also needs a huge reward to decipher the real text?"

"This little brother doesn't know."

Fu Shiqing looked at Fu Wanjun.

But Fu Wanjun didn't know the details, what she was interested in was a huge reward: "Let's go and have a look, and then ask the members of the clan, won't it be clear?"

In the past few days of the new year, there are Dharma meetings on the five main peaks. Even if Fang Dushu stays at one peak a day, he can visit all the Dharma meetings on the five peaks.

So it doesn't matter which peak you go to first.

He agreed to Fu Wanjun's proposal, he did not object, and Fu Shiqing followed suit.

So the three of them rushed to Quzhi Peak together.

This Quzhi Peak, which is hundreds of feet high, has a climbing stone ladder dug at the foot of the mountain.

Usually, the stone ladder is not open to the public, except for these few days, all monks from Wuyuan City can go to the top of the mountain to participate in the puja.

The three of Fang Dushu left early, and when they arrived at the top of the mountain, Fu Yuqing hadn't entered yet.

However, there are hundreds of monks who want to observe the text.

Most of them are members of the Fu family, gathering in groups of three or four in the square on the top of the mountain.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Fa Conference has not yet been held.

The three of Fang Dushu gathered around several old monks of their uncles and grandparents, and listened to their explanations about Fu Yuqing and the 'Miao Zhi Zhen Wen'.

"At the beginning of spring this year, Wawa was awarded a Miaozhi Ding from the Zhenwen School. At that time, she had cultivated the eleventh level of Qi training, and when she had completed half of the "Miaozhi Zhenfa", her cultivation had already risen to the [-]th level of Qi training. Foundation building is just around the corner.”

"Since the foundation can already be established, what is the purpose of her convening the magic fingering meeting?"

"Recently, she has comprehended almost all the true texts of Miao Zhi Ding, but the last one is not complete! Originally, she planned to return to the Zhenwen School and go to the same school to read it, but the elders of the clan let her here Xuanwen, and made a promise with her!"

"What agreement?"

"If anyone in the clan can unlock the scripture, then she must preach and teach the whole method of the magic finger to the clan!"

"Hey, the elders of the clan still have a way. Even if the clansmen can't solve it, there will be hard work if there is no credit. She has to show it. At least she must teach three tricks and two styles."

"It's hard to say! Once these clansmen who joined the Zhenwen Sect established a firm foothold in the sect, they became disrespectful to their relatives and began to alienate us. They all said that only one person can ascend to the sky. These clansmen are good. They forget their relatives once they get the Tao. !"

"Don't say such things, let the elders hear it, and you will curse again!"

The old monks of these uncles and grandparents stopped talking suddenly, turned their heads and saw Fang Dushu and the three cats in front of them, and immediately pushed them with their hands: "You three little guys, what are you doing here sneakily, go as you go, go as you go !"

Fang Dushu and the others hurriedly moved their positions, and squeezed into the side of several old ladies of aunt's generation.

The mother-in-laws are more kind and don't push them out.

"Counting the days, is the 'Ancient Inkstone Competition' going to be held again?"

"Isn't it? Next year is the competition date."

"Every five years, the Zhenwen School is held once, and each time it picks out dozens of young disciples. On average, one city may not be able to produce one. I don't know if there will be any children from our Fu family who will stand out in the competition next year. .”

"In the previous ancient inkstone competitions, the Zhenwen faction picked out exactly how many young disciples were selected, mainly to test the qualifications of viewing literature. If there are many geniuses, then they will accept more, otherwise, they will accept less. This kind of thing cannot be forced."

"Too."

When Fang Dushu heard this, the questions that had plagued him for a long time had been slowly solved.

The ancient inkstone competition that the mothers-in-law talked about should be the apprenticeship ceremony of the Zhenwen School.

He pulled Fu Shiqing aside: "How much do you know about the Gu Yan Grand Competition?"

Fu Shiqing replied: "My little brother only knows that the age of monks participating in the competition is basically limited to eight to 12 years old. If the qualifications are particularly outstanding, they can be extended to fourteen or five years old. If they are older, they will not be eligible to participate."

"There are such strict requirements on age."

Fang Dushu was speechless, he was already over 20 years old, and he didn't even have the conditions to go to the Zhenwen School to pay homage to him.

He asked Fu Shiqing: "Have you ever participated in the Ancient Inkstone Competition?"

Fu Shiqing shook his head: "Wuyuan City holds a qualification competition every three years. My younger brother participated three times in a row and was eliminated every time. My younger brother can't even compare with this city. Hey, how can we talk about the ancient inkstone competition?"

Fang Dushu still wanted to ask about the venue of the Gu Yan Grand Competition.

Fu Wanjun came over to remind: "Shut up, Fu Wa has come out, and the two elders of the clan are with her."

The originally noisy environment of the square quickly became silent.

There is a row of palace buildings behind the square, and Fu Yuqing and two elders walked out of one of the secret halls.

Facing the group of cultivators in the square, Fu Yuqing shook his hand lightly, and a jade platform flashed beside him, with a pale gold authentic text floating on it.

She is 17 years old this year, her face is still childish, but her temperament is dignified and elegant. She stands quietly and is not afraid of the stage when she is in the public.

Fang Dushu went forward and looked at her, and found that she was dressed in white, her skin was flawless, she was really shining like a jade, worthy of the name of a ceramic doll.

"Listen up!"

The middle-aged male elder beside the baby cleared his throat and shouted to everyone: "Before nightfall today, this magic finger text will be placed here. All family relatives and guests can read it to your heart's content. Whoever can unlock it, the family Don't skimp on rewards."

In fact, watching and reading is just for show.

Fu Yuqing's aptitude is so good, she can't solve the real text, and it's even more impossible for the children of the clan.

But in order for Fu Yuqing to teach the "Miao Zhi Zhen Dharma", the elders of the clan made such a bad plan. The clan members have worked hard for you Fu Yuqing all day, don't you express it?

The Zhenwen School does not restrict the disciples of the sect to teach the Dharma to their respective families.

In fact, the true Dharma acquired by the aristocratic family is generally passed down from generation to generation from the disciples of the Zhenwen Sect.

In other words, Fu Yuqing is not unwilling to teach it, the main reason is that the "Miao Zhi Zhen Dharma" has not yet been completed, and she feels that it is not the right time to teach it.

Looking back on the past, she got the magic finger tripod at the beginning of the year, and then she has been spending sleepless nights and food to study. Before she followed her senior sister Liang Shengyin down the mountain this month, there were only a few authentic texts left to study.

Because the previous practice was very smooth and she didn't encounter any obstacles, she felt that it was not difficult to practice these few authentic texts.

Unexpectedly, when she returned to Wuyuan City and watched the text at home, she found that the last authentic text could not be deciphered no matter what.

She once asked her senior sister Liang Shengyin for advice, but Liang Shengyin couldn't solve it.

At this time, the elders of the clan found her and asked her to teach the Dharma according to the usual practice. She shirked and said that the "Miao Zhi Zhen Dharma" had not yet been fully enlightened.

After the elders in the clan learned about her situation, they suggested that she hold a magic finger ceremony.

The elders opened their mouths, but it was hard for her to refuse.

She didn't have any expectations in her heart, but she was still willing to wait. Maybe someone from the clan had a flash of inspiration and deciphered the last authentic text, but it's still unknown.

　The third update, I beg you to vote, brothers, for the new issue, I urgently need your support.
