Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 2 Detection

Time flies, and seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.Zhang Miao is also ten years old.

On this day, more than a dozen people of the same age in the village were gathering around Zhang Miao to chat.

"Sanshui, do you think any of the dozen or so of us will have spiritual roots this year?" A friend said to Zhang Miao.

His eyes were wandering, as if he wanted to say that he had spiritual roots, but his reason told him that this was impossible.

Zhang Miao shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. I'm not an immortal master. How could I see it?" As he spoke, he focused on his purple bamboo in his heart.

After seven years, his purple bamboo has grown one section taller, and this section emits a bright green light, which seems to indicate something different.Just after this section of purple bamboo grew, Zhang Miao felt that the world was a little different.

He couldn't tell what the specific difference was. It was as if the world had become much clearer and had some connection with him.This feeling is like scratching an itch. Whenever he pursues this feeling carefully, it seems to be playing hide and seek with him, making him elusive and unable to comprehend it.

But after all, he had been a human being for two lifetimes, and he had a vague idea in his mind. Could this be his spiritual root?He wasn't sure, after all, he didn't know anything about it.

Just when he was distracted, a friend next to him suddenly said: "I think Daqing is very promising. He is so tall and strong, so he must have spiritual roots. My father said so."

After he finished speaking, the friends around him turned their attention to a tall and fat little fat man.This little fat man is Da Qing. He is a head taller than others, and his body is round and powerful, comparable to that of an adult.

Hearing this, the kid named Daqing couldn't help but puff up his chest, and then said: "I think so. If I didn't have spiritual roots, I would have grown so tall and powerful." Break off an arm-thick green bamboo.

Green bamboo is so tough that it is really difficult for ordinary people to break it.The exposure of his hand made the friends around him marvel in admiration, with envy in their eyes.

What do children know? This is very powerful in their eyes.

But someone immediately said: "This is stupid strength. I think Qingqing still has hope. She runs so fast. No monkey can catch up with her."

The Qingqing he mentioned was a girl, the same age as them, but she didn't often play with boys like them.Girls have their own circle.But she did run very fast, and the monkey really couldn't catch up with her.

His words made the other friends nod their heads. They all said that Qingqing was indeed very powerful.

At this time, a friend next to him said to Zhang Miao: "Sanshui, I think you also have hope." His words made the people next to him sneer: "What hope does Sanshui have? He can't run fast or jump well." He is tall and not very strong. He just likes farming, which is the most unpromising thing."

Zhang Miao smiled after hearing this. How could he be as knowledgeable as these children?However, the person who spoke for him was unconvinced and said: "How can it be impossible for Sanshui? The last time I was bitten by Bamboo Leaf Green, it was the snake medicine that Sanshui helped me find. He has been particularly good at finding medicinal materials since he was a child. You guys It’s not like I don’t know.”

His unconvinced look made Zhang Miao smile again.A year ago, this boy was accidentally bitten by a highly poisonous snake while working in the bamboo forest. Thanks to Zhang Miao, he found a special herb to treat the venom of the snake and applied it to him. Saved his life.

Zhang Miao's behavior was praised by the villagers.In fact, everyone living here knows the antidote for green snake venom, but the medicinal materials were nowhere to be found at this time. Fortunately, Zhang Miao found the medicinal materials and saved this kid's life.Zhang Miao is very good at finding medicinal materials, and everyone in the village knows this, but everyone thinks he is lucky.Only Zhang Miao himself knows that he is good at finding medicinal materials because of his vague feeling, which makes it easy for him to discover the plants around him.

The group of friends chatted for a while. Seeing that the sun was noon, Zhang Miao said: "No more talking, I'm going home to cook." When the others heard this, they scattered and went home to cook and eat. .

When she returned home, Zhang Miao saw her mother busy taking care of a group of younger siblings.In the past seven years, Zhang's mother gave birth to five children in seven years. Maybe she thought that all the children would be as easy to take care of as Zhang Miao.Only after the child was born did she realize the pain of raising a child.

Zhang Miao immediately went to cook. When he was done, he came over to help take care of his younger brothers and sisters, so that his old mother could relax.

Not long after, my father also came back from the bamboo forest.Everyone also started to eat.

At the dinner table, Zhang Miao dealt with his younger brothers and sisters with sharp eyes and quick hands, while Zhang's father said: "The immortal master from Qingzhu Sect will be coming in the next few days. Miaomiao Miao, please stop running around and be prepared."

Zhang Miao nodded and continued to take care of his younger brothers and sisters.In fact, Zhang's father also knew in his heart that the chance of Zhang Miao having spiritual roots was not high.People with spiritual roots always have some special talents, but Zhang Miao is just an ordinary child, which is probably useless.It's just that deep down in his heart, he still has something to think about, what if his eldest son has spiritual roots...

People always have to miss something.

At this time, someone outside the house suddenly shouted: "The immortal master of Qingzhumen is here! The immortal master of Qingzhumen is here! Children who are qualified should go to the ancestral hall to gather!"

The family who were eating were stunned, and then Zhang's father immediately said: "Is the Immortal Master here? Miaomiao, don't eat, hurry up and go to the ancestral hall!"

Zhang Miao glanced at the half-eaten meal, put down his bowls and chopsticks, and followed his parents to the ancestral hall with a group of younger brothers and sisters.

Along the way, Zhang Miao saw many villagers.Most of these people came to watch the fun. In fact, there were only a dozen or so people in the village who met the age limit this year.Zhang Miao also saw Daqing on the road. The little fat man was very nervous at the moment. His fat face was covered with sweat. His parents kept wiping his sweat and giving him instructions.

Not long after, everyone arrived at the ancestral hall.Zhang Miao, a school-age child, was taken directly up.In the center of the ancestral hall, several village elders were talking to a middle-aged man wearing a green bamboo crown and a mysterious green sash robe.

Judging from the careful and respectful look on the village elder's face, this person must be the immortal master of Qingzhumen.

The immortal master responded word by word. When everyone arrived, he coughed lightly and said, "I will be the one to do the test this year. Those who are old enough can come forward."

Hearing this, Zhang Miao and a dozen other boys stepped forward.

The immortal master didn't waste any time and took out a round plate from his arms. Then he threw the plate in his hand and the plate was suspended in front of him, floating steadily in the air.

"Okay, let's go forward and get tested."
