Dao Fruit

Comprehension of the contents of the Li Gua, Qiu Yan sat down, traced the source, and vaguely realized that it was related to the divine body and the Land of the Lost.

"The heavenly soldiers have already arrived, and it is natural for the divine body to bear pressure. I just don't know whether the Heavenly Court will continue to attack blindly or have other countermeasures. But why is there still a risk in the Land of the Lost? Is it because of those foreign gods?"

In the Land of the Lost, Qiu Yan settled in Lianxi. The development of his tribe has been on the right track. Even if Qiu Yan did not ask too much, there would not be too many deviations. It has already passed the primitive accumulation stage and has a clear social division of labor. In addition to hunting, gathering has also become organized, not to mention that after Qiu Yan's personal teaching, they began to try to cultivate crops.

For the survival of primitive society, food is an important part, which is related to inheritance and survival, and the second is force.

The Lianxi tribe is strong, with many subordinate tribes, a large number of people, and a set of training and marching methods left by Yin Xiao'e. After eliminating many factors, it is enough to crush the surrounding tribes.

In addition, there is one thing that this tribe cannot avoid in order to survive, which is to fight against natural disasters and the environment. Originally, when the Lianxi tribe encountered natural disasters, they could only flee or wait for death, but with the method of observing the gods in the heart passed down by Qiu Yan, it can be said that it is like a tiger with wings, and it can resist many disasters.

Not to mention, Qiu Yan also left three guarding "gods" for the tribe's residence.

These three people have gods and monks, but they are restricted by restrictions and cannot leave. In addition to helping the Lianxi tribe maintain the safety of the tribe, they are also insurance when facing the gods of other tribes.

After all, in the land of the relic, many tribes have gods behind them. Qiu Yan cannot come often, so naturally he needs other help.

"The recent prayers of the Lianxi tribe have mentioned the idea of ​​expansion. The gods of many tribes kept the totem poles after the tribes they controlled were annexed. Therefore, there was no further threat to the Lianxi tribe. Of course, this was also due to the deterrent power of the three guardian gods."

In fact, in the early stages of the development of the Lianxi tribe, the tribes that were annexed and conquered were still tribes without gods behind them, but gradually. This could no longer meet the needs of the tribe, and eventually began to get involved in those tribes ruled by "gods".

At the beginning, facing the invasion of primitive tribes, those monks and gods could not tolerate it, but because of the forces behind the Lianxi tribe, they had to compromise. Later, they found that there was no real conflict between the two sides——

"The gods control the tribes to reduce their own consumption. In the Land of Metamorphosis, they cannot replenish their divine power and spiritual energy, so they need slaves to do it for them. In the final analysis, their purpose is not to strengthen the tribe, but to seize the totem pole."

"The Lianxi tribe annexed other tribes and plundered a large number of people, but did not touch the totem pole. Only then could the gods settle down and realize that their goals were different from those of the Lianxi tribe. There was no direct conflict."

The gods who descended were asking for totem poles and then picking the sun, while the Lianxi tribe wanted to grow stronger. What Qiu Yan needed was the ancient human way displayed in this process.

"However, in addition to these, there is another major uncertainty, which is a few foreign gods."

The origins of these gods are a mystery, but after entering the Land of Metamorphosis. They were discovered by Qiu Yan.

"What the gods want is nothing more than incense. Even if they are in a strange place, they should focus on spreading sacrifices. But in the Land of the Lost, incense is not available. Those gods finally set out to unify the tribes on the other side, and clashed with the Lianxi tribe across the water. I also took this opportunity to get in touch with them and get in a little bit of a covert hand."

However, the other party is also a god, and many of their methods are not safe.

"Those gods are obviously planning something, and they also give the tribesmen the method of supernatural powers. Could this hexagram indicate their plan against the Lianxi tribe? The fight between gods is not that simple, and we cannot take it lightly."

Qiu Yan thought about it and realized the problem. He and the other party had different focuses. It was difficult to gather incense in the Land of the Lost, and no matter how widely the sacrifices to any god were spread, it would be useless.

And with the humanistic fire from the tenth sun, Qiu Yan was proud to absorb the incense in the Land of the Lost, which was unique.

"Speaking of which, those gods seem to have ways to replenish their power, otherwise they would not lend their power to ordinary mortals without hesitation..."

Thinking about it, he slowly sorted out his thoughts.

"The changes in the Land of the Lost need to be carefully investigated. It will not be clear in a short time. You might as well use the Heart Demon Body to go there. The people there are simple and honest, and their hearts are close to the origin. Maybe you can gain something."

Speaking of the Heart Demon Body, thinking of the impact of the dragon energy, several pieces of the Heart Demon fragments eroded it, and there were some changes afterwards. Qiu Yan couldn't help but sort out some recent things in his mind and sorted out the clues.

These days, things have come one after another, whether it is the palace examination, or the golden elixir, or the dragon energy, or the order, almost giving people a feeling of being overwhelmed. Until now, it can really be relieved a little, allowing Qiu Yan to sort out what he has gained recently.

"The soul has transformed three times, entering the peak of the third realm. Once it transforms seven times, the seven spirits simulated by the medicine will be combined with the soul, and it should be able to advance to the fourth realm. However, it is not easy. Each transformation will increase the yang energy. If the soul itself is not strong enough, it will be hurt by the yang energy. However, it is enough to support the solidification of the heart fire."

In the body, the soul moved, and the heart fire was like a city. There were soldiers on the edge of the city, civilians inside, scholars as pillars, and officials covering the top. There was a vague bright yellow air surrounding the top of the city, but it was not clear.

Then, strange fluctuations emerged from the soul, similar to the breath of cause and effect.

"The cause and effect of his ambitions have been completed. How can this scholar not want to be named on the gold medal list, govern the country and cook delicious food? If his predecessor had not died, he might eventually fall into ruins, but since he has left the cause and effect, he will ignore the reality and turn into obsession. This time It's normal. However, the completion of cause and effect has created a sage's spiritual consciousness, but it also leaves mysterious fluctuations in the soul and golden elixir, which need to be discovered. Now, among the three causes and effects, only kinship remains. Regarding this last cause and effect, It looks like I’m going to give it a try…”

The third transformation of the soul and the transformation of the virtual core into reality were all gained during this period of time, which made Qiu Yan very disappointed.

"The will of the city and the dragon energy of the dynasty are now partially integrated with me, and I can use them to gain insights. But after all, they are external forces. The order of the military strategist is something I have gained myself. Because I borrowed the help of my inner demon, it is not yet complete. It is similar to Great Confucian, but there are still some shortcomings. I think I have to wait for confirmation with other great Confucians to consolidate it..."

After a few days of experience, I have gained a lot, and there is no need to elaborate on the tedious aspects.

Not long after, Mr. Chen and people from Dafan Temple came to the door, congratulated each other with small profits, and left their own words, which made Qiu Yanyue find a way forward. These are all things for later.

Let's talk about the Qionglin banquet on the second day. The emperor gave a banquet. Qiu Yan and many new Jinshi gathered together, singing and laughing. During the banquet, they met Wang Fu, the master. The two parties settled on their names. This was the official name, and he became the prime minister from then on. disciple.

The word "disciple" is derived from disciple, which means disciple, but it is different.

In short, those who are taught by great Confucians and masters are disciples, and those who are taught by others are disciples.

Before the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty in the previous dynasty, the Central Plains was divided, the north and the south were in conflict, and the imperial examination was not popular. This was the golden age of aristocratic families. Even though the scholars at that time were full of knowledge and had talents in the world, they were still unable to realize their ambitions due to their family status and reputation. Being able to rely on aristocratic families made the term "disciple" gradually become more widespread and was eventually used.

Later, the imperial examination was established, the examiner was called the master, and those who took the high school entrance examination became students.

It is worth mentioning that after passing the palace examination, many Jinshi also had the title of "disciple of the emperor".

Halfway through the banquet, the emperor left, all restraints were gone, and the atmosphere gradually became lively. At the same time, some people talked with the examiners, or went to seek advice from several prime ministers.

While speaking and behaving, literary thoughts spread out, matching the dragon spirit, official spirit, and luck. They gradually transformed. They were no longer simple literary thoughts, but mixed with a lot of nobility. They were vaguely consistent with the dynasty and reflected the imperial palace, making the banquet style gradually change. grand.

Compared with this, the dinner party at Pang Mansion's Villa pales in comparison.

Gao Jing, Ye Yun and others came over to talk to Qiu Yan one after another, and then left separately. Zhou Guan looked at the lively scene and felt happy, but after a while, he felt regretful and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Ruoluo, too. It would be great to be able to see such a scene and take a seat with me.”

Luo Jiayun failed in the examination, so he returned to Jiannan a few days later and brought home letters for Qiu Yan and Zhou Guan.

Qiu Yan won the first prize, and everyone in Jiannan Road was already aware of it, while Zhou Guan won the third class, with the same Jinshi background, and his ancestral glory. Even his mother, who came from a humble background, could soar to the sky with this, and would never be seen again. If anyone dares to question his status as a concubine, even if he inherits the family business, it is not impossible.

However, the opposite is the frustrated person.

Those who are successful are overjoyed, while those who are unsuccessful cannot avoid feeling sad no matter how open-minded they are.

Luo Jiayun spent more than ten years in poverty, walking on thin ice on the imperial examination road. At the last moment, he still failed and could only return with loneliness and disappointment.

He was not the only one. Those who had gathered for the general examination had overcome many obstacles and defeated countless opponents. However, only one person out of twenty or thirty people made it to the imperial list, and the majority were those who failed.

In the past few days, the mood of frustrated people has filled most of Xingjing. Qiu Yan can't even think about it without paying attention. Moreover, he has experienced humanity and is proud of the spring breeze. This is a state. The dejected mood of the person who has lost his name cannot be let go, so he borrows the will of the city , to capture the emotional fluctuations, taste them, and feel emotional in my heart.

At this time, after hearing Zhou Guan's words, Qiu Yan looked at the grand scene around him and couldn't help but recall his loneliness.

The two heavens of ice and fire are only derived from the choice of human beings. I immediately had a realization, and I was reminded of the way forward between the divine way, the human way and the inner demon way. It seems extraordinary, but it is also full of difficulties. The fire in the soul moves, spiral changes, there are yin and yang. The beginning of the division, a poem came to mind——

"The three-foot carp in the Yellow River originally lived in Mengjin. It couldn't become a dragon by touching its forehead, but it returned to accompany ordinary fish."

As soon as the voice fell, an old voice came from the side——

"Shen Zhi is the number one scholar in a new subject, why do you feel so emotional?"
