Fighter of the Destiny

A man stepped on the broken fence and looked at the sunset in the distance, with a look of sadness and joy on his face. A man was walking quickly around the dilapidated hut, speaking quickly like laws and regulations, and his whole body was full of infatuation. This scene does look a bit weird. Who would have thought that these two young men are actually disciples of the world-famous Lishan Sword Sect and members of the Seven Laws of the Kingdom of God?

Chen Changsheng was a little surprised at first, but then he thought that Liang Banhu and Qijian had some insights after reading the stone tablet and were digesting it, so they didn't bother them.

The twilight is getting thicker and thicker, and more and more people are returning to the thatched cottage. Gou Hanshi's expression is calm as usual. It seems that the removal of the monument has not caused any damage to his mind. Guan Feibai, who was forcibly brought back by him, is better than Liang Banhu. He Qijian was even more exaggerated, as if he was drunk, and kept shouting: "I can hold on for a while longer! I can hold on for a while longer!"

Chen Changsheng asked: "Is everything okay?"

"It's okay, it's just that the spiritual consciousness was consumed too much, and the inscription shocked the sea of ​​consciousness too much."

Gou Hanshi apologized for his junior brother's gaffe, let Guan Feibai fall asleep with his fingertips, and then threw him into the room.

Chen Changsheng deliberately did not use his spiritual consciousness when viewing the monument. Looking at Guan Feibai's appearance, he thought it made sense to be careful.

Tang Thirty-Six came back with a tired look on his face. He was too lazy to say anything. He waved to Chen Changsheng and went to sleep in the back room. The last one to come back was Zhexiu. At that time, the sky was already pitch dark, and the stars were in the sky, making his face extremely pale. It was obvious that his consciousness had been exhausted.

After the sunset, Liang Banhu woke up and Qijian was tired from walking. He wiped his sweat and walked back to the courtyard. He remembered what he had done before and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and his face turned red.

Chen Changsheng went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Gou Hanshi took Qi Jian to help. Not long after, the room began to be filled with the steamy aroma of two-course steamed rice, as well as other aromas. Qi Jian went to ask Guan Feibai and Tang Sanliu to get up for dinner, while Gou Hanshi and Liang Banhu remained silent in front of the two plates of bacon on the table.

"What's wrong?" Chen Changsheng asked.

He sliced ​​the cooked bacon into two plates, one plate was fried with scallion oil, and the other was pickled with sugar.

Gou Hanshi said: "I... never thought that sugar can be added to bacon."

Liang Banhu showed fear on his face and said, "Can it be delicious?"

"I ate it twice before I was ten years old. It tasted very good." Chen Changsheng handed the chopsticks to Gou Hanshi.

Gou Hanshi took a chopstick of candied bacon, put it into his mouth with a frown, chewed the piece back, and relaxed his brows.

Looking at his senior brother's expression, Liang Banhu didn't understand. He happily put a few pieces of candied bacon into his rice bowl, then squatted outside the threshold and started eating.

After dinner, Qi Jian went to wash the dishes. Guan Feibai sat at the table, his face still gloomy, and he was very dissatisfied with Gou Hanshi for taking him away from the Heavenly Book Monument.

"Unhappy?" Gou Hanshi asked calmly.

Guan Feibai's expression suddenly became serious, he quickly stood up and saluted, and said, "Junior brother, I don't dare."

Gou Hanshi shook his head and said, "You still don't want to leave Zhaoqing Monument."

Guan Feibai said helplessly: "Those whose cultivation levels are far inferior to mine are still insisting in front of the monument. I can obviously look at it for a while longer."

Gou Hanshi said: "What is the Heavenly Book Monument? How can reading and interpreting the Monument be accomplished in a day? Why do we have to fight every day?"

Guan Feibai said with some distress: "The Zhou Garden will be opened in a month, and the time is too tight... It took Wang Po one year to solve the thirty-one monuments. My current level of cultivation is far inferior to his. There is only one How many monuments can I solve in a month? Senior brother, I can only rely on time to fight for it."

"Although Zhou Garden is good, how can it be as good as the Tomb of Heaven's Book? Before leaving, the headmaster told us that no matter what happens, the first thing we have to do is to understand the stone tablets in the Tomb of Heaven's Book... The headmaster must know that our senior brother has opened the Zhou Yuan, then that should be what you said. Of course, cultivating Taoism is all up to the individual, so you have to make your own choice."

Gou Hanshi looked at Qijian and Liang Banhu who were washing dishes, then at the closed door of the inner room, and said, "You all should think about it carefully."

…

…

"You heard it too, even the head of Lishan Sword Sect thinks so."

Chen Changsheng looked at the pale Zhexiu and shook his head. He took out the thin needle from the needle box, gently pressed the position of his shoulder blade with his fingers, slowly and steadily inserted the tip of the needle into it, rubbed the fingertips lightly, seemingly casually but with a certain rhythm, and continued: "This is the moment. It’s the first monument, why are you so anxious?”

Zhexiu said expressionlessly: "It's because this is the first monument, so I'm anxious."

Chen Changsheng transferred the true energy into his body through the copper needle, carefully observed the condition of his meridians, and said, "What does this mean?"

Zhexiu looked out the window and said, "There is a monument in front of the Tomb of Heavenly Books. Many names were written on it, but it was later chopped off."

Chen Changsheng knew the monument he was talking about. There used to be a list similar to the Qingyun Ranking on that monument, which was arranged according to the speed of the observers in solving the monument. More than a hundred years ago, the Holy Empress performed the Shinto ceremony on behalf of His Majesty. When the Queen of Heaven saw this monument, she thought that viewing the monument was a glimpse into the way of heaven. Such lists were disrespectful to the way of heaven, so they were destroyed.

“Although the list on that monument is gone, no one will forget those names.”

Zhexiu said: "Twenty-three people took only one day to unlock the Zhaoqing Monument. Back then, Zhou Dufu only glanced at the surface of the monument before going to the second monument."

Thinking of those legendary figures whose monastic talents were so powerful that it was difficult to understand, Chen Changsheng could only remain silent.

Tang Sanliu rolled up the fur in his arms and lay on his side on the bed, watching Chen Changsheng treat Zhe Xiu. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "You failed to unblock the monument on the first day, so you feel very embarrassed." ?Then what do we guys who have been watching for two days count?"

Zhexiu couldn't turn his head and looked out the window quietly, saying, "Idiot?"

Tang Sanshiliu was furious and said, "If I hadn't seen you as a patient, I would have beaten you to death."

Zhexiu said expressionlessly: "If I hadn't asked Chen Changsheng to treat me, I would have beaten you to death during the imperial examination."

Chen Changsheng took out the copper needle from his neck and said: "There is something wrong with the interlayer of your main governor channel that is connected to the sea of ​​consciousness, so every time the hidden tide of the sea of ​​consciousness surges, you will have a sudden impulse. In the past, it was all supported by strong willpower. But if your mind is consumed too much and you can't suppress it, problems in your meridians are very likely to break out. Who can save you then?"

Zhexiu understood that he was trying to persuade him not to look at the monument for too long and focus too much like today, but he didn't answer.

Chen Changsheng said: "You said that living soberly is the most important thing than getting stronger."

Zhexiu was silent for a moment and then said: "Yes, but where I live, if you are not strong enough, you won't be able to survive for long."

Just like Gou Hanshi said, cultivating Taoism is up to the individual, and there was no way Chen Changsheng could force him to persuade him about this kind of thing. He looked at Tang Sanliu and asked, "How did you do with your interpretation of the stele today?"

Tang Thirty-Six said casually: "Correlate the lines on the stele with your own meridians, and then mobilize your true energy... This is how the Zhaoqing stele has been interpreted from ancient times to the present. Is there any other way?"

Guan Feibai's sarcastic voice came in from outside the door: "It's been thousands of years, and you northerners still only know how to use this stupid method. No wonder there are fewer and fewer capable people." The inscription on the Heavenly Book Monument How could it be a circuit for the movement of true energy? It is obviously a method of divine perception, okay!"
