Calamity of Tomorrow

Chapter 108 Preparing to Sprint (Part 1)

In the next two weeks, Zhou Bai silently read Dao Zang, improving his Daoization.

As for the laziness points, they were all accumulated and not used at all.

But Daozang 09 was indeed more weird and difficult than he expected. Every time after reading, he needed to walk around in order to relieve the discomfort in his heart.

Zhou Bai found himself chatting with Qian Wangsun and Jingxiu, and then going to the cafeteria to have a meal, walk around with the dog or something, and the discomfort in his heart would be relieved a lot.

The only pity is that the 2000 points rewarded for the first place in the last assessment has been spent by Zhou Bai.

Now he only has 200 basic points and 200 extra points for his monthly income, and he can no longer continue to eat and drink like before.

But at least one meal of meat a day is doable.

‘Hey, the points are still not enough to spend. If I can eat snake bone soup, red fish soup, and all kinds of extraordinary food every day, my cultivation will definitely be faster. '

'There are also those magic weapons, array maps, talismans and the like, not to mention. '

'well. '

At this moment, Zhou Bai was sitting in the cafeteria, with a bowl of rice and a bowl of crystal magic kernels in front of him.

Then I saw him eat a mouthful of rice and meat, eating well.

This crystal magic kernel has the taste of shrimp, and it can subtly enhance the reaction speed of the eater. It is a dish that Zhou Bai likes very much.

At this moment, the aunts in the cafeteria sat down at the table on Zhou Bai's left with their meals and began to eat dinner.

Zhou Bai looked at the time, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the aunts in the cafeteria had their meals early.

But when he saw the food they were eating, Zhou Bai's eyes moved slightly, and he found that they were all eating porridge and some pickles.

This wasn't the first time Zhou Bai had seen such a scene. The ladies in the cafeteria seemed to only eat porridge and pickles, and never had meals from the cafeteria.

This time Zhou Bai finally couldn't help asking, "Auntie, you guys eat porridge every day."

Aunt Wang who once added meat to Zhou Bai with "shaking hands" turned her head and said with a smile: "It's good to eat porridge, but this is porridge soaked in human food. If you eat a bowl of porridge for a whole day, you can't eat it outside." .”

"Outside..." Zhou Bai asked curiously, "Is there not much food outside?"

Aunt Wang shook her head: "There are more than 300 million people in Donghua City. How can we eat anything? We can follow you in the Taoist school to eat some human food and make porridge. Outside, we can't eat this kind of extraordinary food now." For food, you can only eat ordinary porridge noodles, adding an egg is a holiday."

Thinking of adding eggs, Zhou Bai's eyes were slightly in a trance, as if thinking of the bowl of noodles that he ate in the morning of the entrance examination.

He nodded thoughtfully, and then heard Aunt Wang say: "I specially added an extra spoonful of crystal magic kernels to you today, come on, practice hard."

Zhou Bai nodded with a smile: "That's for sure, I will definitely be number one in the school from now on."

After eating, he took Aisha for a walk again. Zhou Bai felt that he was in a good mood now, and he could try to go to the quiet room to read Daozang 09 again later.

In the past two weeks, Zhou Bai has become more and more used to reading Daozang 09. The degree of Taoism has also been raised to 9.6%.

"There are still two days until the assessment."

"Today's condition is good, you can try it and see if you can increase the degree of Taoism to 9.9% in one go."

On the way back to the dormitory, Zhou Bai saw Kong Ji.

At this moment, Kong Ji had a desolate expression on his face, and there was nothing under the sleeve of his right hand.

Zhou Bai still remembered the picture of Sun Yuzhen wringing off the other party's right hand during the Heavenly Demon incident because it was melted by the demonic energy.

Recalling how high-spirited Kong Hao was in the ring when he first met each other, now he is almost two people in comparison.

Zhou Bai swept across the back and side of the other party. At this moment, Kong Ji was carrying a large bag and a small bag, and beside him were two men and women with yellow complexions and gray temples, who followed him and helped him carry things in his hands.

Zhou Bai guessed in his heart: "I heard from Jingxiu that after Kong Xie lost his arm, his cultivation has been unable to keep up. Did he drop out of school?" ’ Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Zhou Bai shook his head, just sighed in his heart, and didn't go up to say hello.

Back in the dormitory, Zhou Bai saw that Jing Xiu was mobilizing the power of Yuanshen, sweeping the floor, washing clothes and sheets, and at the same time grabbed Aisha in the air to help her wash her body.

"Ah, Brother Zhou?" Jingxiu turned her head and said with a smile, "You're back, I'll finish it right away, let's study together."

"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded, and sat on the chair, watching someone clean the room for him, while increasing his laziness, he was really happy.

Meow! Meow!

Hearing the cat meowing, Jingxiu turned around and said, "Come here, Tina." Then she saw the invisible power of the primordial spirit move slightly, and it had already gently touched Tina's body, and began to massage her back.

The white cat's body was pressed up and down, and then there was an expression of enjoyment on its face, and its eyes narrowed bit by bit.

"Hmph, this woman is pretty easy to use." Christina communicated with Zhou Bai with the power of Yuanshen, "I've already trained her to be my slave girl. It's really easy to train her."

As she spoke, she saw Christina stretching her paws to the ground, raised her butt, stretched her paws vigorously, and stretched her waist.

Jingxiu on the side looked at the kitten who had stretched and lay back again, and couldn't help but rub it again: "Christina's hair swells like cotton, so comfortable to touch.

Brother Zhou, I kind of understand why you want to keep a cat. Even if I feel bad after reading Daozang, when I come back and touch such a kitten, I will feel better. "

"Hehe." Zhou Bai smiled on the surface, and said in his heart, "If you knew what this silly cat really thought, you might want to beat her to death." '

These days, Jingxiu came to Zhou Bai's house every day to help clean up, and then studied together, and naturally became familiar with Zhou Bai's cats and dogs.

Zhou Bai casually picked up a scripture book on the table and read it, but he just flipped through it casually, to relax his mind in order to sprint to the Dao level again tonight.

While watching, Zhou Bai asked casually, "Jingxiu, your home is in Donghua City, right? Why don't you go back and have a look?"

"It's nothing to do when I go back." Jingxiu said while doing housework, "My father is a doctor and my mother is a teacher. They are usually very busy. I can't see them when I go back. Instead, I might as well practice hard."

Zhou Bai nodded. In addition to Donghua Taoist School which specializes in cultivation, the huge Donghua City, with a population of more than 300 million, still needs various hospitals, schools, factories, food and other industries.

It's just that there are almost no private companies now, and everything is under the central control of the government and heaven. After the basic living conditions of civilians are met, everything is tilted towards monks and wars.

After a while, Jingxiu finished tidying up the room, sat next to Zhou Bai, took out her notebook and said, "Brother Zhou, I didn't understand some questions yesterday, and I want to ask you for advice."

"That's it. When I breathe out recently, I always feel that the position from the twelve-story building to the lower dantian is not smooth. Is it because the number of cycles of my breathing is not matched with the number of heavenly stems and earthly branches? Look, this is I counted my Sunday numbers."

Zhou Bai frowned and fell into silence, his eyes shone with wisdom, as if he was thinking about Jingxiu's question.

Crack, Christina jumped onto Zhou Bai's shoulder, and a pair of cat eyes glanced at Jingxiu's notebook.

Then Zhou Bai said, "Oh, this question is very simple, just listen to me..."

After a long while, Jingxiu said happily: "So that's the case, is it because I didn't count the numbers in Yi Xue? Brother Zhou, you are really amazing."

Zhou Bai: "Sigh, these are the most basic, nothing. Yi learning is the foundation of cultivating the Tao. You must study hard by yourself. If you learn clearly, just ask me if you don't understand anything."

After studying for the past four months, Zhou Bai also knew that the current human civilization still has the theory of the Book of Changes.

And thinking of Yi Xue, he couldn't help but think of the first hexagram of the Book of Changes absorbed by Christina's gemstone.

‘Speaking of which, the current textbooks do not contain the original text of the Book of Changes, but various second-hand annotations, which are also one of the basic theories of Taoism. Alas, it's a pity that I can't recite the Book of Changes at all. '

'Speaking of which, what is the use of this gemstone and the sixty-four hexagrams? '

After the Tianma incident, Zhou Bai also tried to use gems and the first hexagram.

It's a pity that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't use the power in it, so he could only give up temporarily.

‘I’m afraid it’s not something I can use now, let’s improve my cultivation. '

That night, after seeing off Jingxiu, Zhou Bai came to the quiet room again, preparing to increase his dao level to 9.9%.

Christina listened to Zhou Bai's heartfelt voice, and looked at the gemstone on her neck.

Since absorbing the first hexagram, with the increase of Zhou Bai's degree of Taoism, the cracks on the gemstone seem to be getting smaller and smaller, and more and more like the original appearance.

‘Gem, are you recovering? '
