One Hundred and Fifty-Seven, Dingge Tiangang
Wang Chong leisurely sat down in a noodle shop and asked for a bowl of noodles.
He himself is still in the Tiangang realm and is not considered an immortal. Even if he can be convinced, he still cannot avoid grains, so he often comes to this shop.
In Jietian Pass, no matter which pass it is, the only people who make a living are the old Chinese people.
Wang Chong chatted with the store owner for a while, and the braised noodles he ordered were brought to him. Wang Chong blew it slightly. Although he was not afraid of the noodle soup being too hot, this habit was still unavoidable. Lifting up the bamboo chopsticks, Wang Chong took a few bites and felt a little emotional.
After being at Jie Tian Pass for a long time, in addition to the cultivation disciples of various sects, it is inevitable that they will also come into contact with the old people of China.
Because their homes were destroyed, most of these people were moved to other continents. Some small sects and brave men were willing to stay in Jietian Pass to protect their old homes.
The Alliance of Mending Heaven provides some care and some restrictions on the old people of the Middle Earth. For example, they cannot join various sects and can only practice the complex spells collected by each sect, which are compiled into a book called "Yuan Dao Jing".
As long as you are an old Chinese citizen, almost every household has a copy.
Wang Chong also got a volume and flipped through it briefly, but lost interest. There is no Tiangang method in the original Dao Sutra. It is still the divine method and Qi method that were popular thousands of years ago. The forbidden method is also incomplete. If you practice based on it, your achievements will be limited.
However, in recent decades, a practice method called "Alchemy Cauldron Method" has become popular among the old people of China, and Wang Chong is quite interested in it.
This method is also known as the "Alchemy Furnace Method" and the "Cauldron Furnace Method". After refining the Qi Fei Yuan, instead of practicing the Gang Veins, one uses oneself as the Cauldron Furnace to open the thirty-six orifices of the Zhoutian and exhale the Yuan Qi.
The speed of progress in the cultivation of the Alchemy Cauldron Method is not inferior to that of the Tiangang Method. However, the person who created this method has only reached the level of the Great Evolution. Therefore, there are very few practitioners in the old people of the Middle Earth, no more than one hundred people. One or two people are willing to practice.
These predecessors of the old people of China are certainly people of great courage, but with a history of thousands of years and dozens of generations of population changes, the current ideas of the old people of China have long since changed.
Many people also want to leave Jietianguan and no longer want to live this kind of precarious life, where they are invaded by demons every day.
There are even more people who want to join the great sect of cultivation, learn the superior Taoism, and stop being like people.
Those who inherit the legacy of our ancestors are gradually becoming a minority.
Most people are helpless because the Twelve Major Sects simply do not allow them to have any other choice and can only live like this.
Many old people in the Middle Earth are actually quite resistant to the monks of various sects. Although they are not yet hostile, there is an undercurrent.
For example, when Wang Chong occasionally walks in the market, he will hear the old people of Middle-earth talking about him. The status of the monks of various sects is far higher than that of the old people of Middle-earth. For example, the harvest of hunting is never divided into rich and poor. , all belong to the monks of various sects, and the content of these discussions can be imagined.
Wang Chong ate the noodles in a hurry, paid the bills, stood up, and planned to leave.
He vaguely heard a table of young people talking about him, and he didn't want to question him. After all, he couldn't be punished with words, but he didn't want to listen any more. After all, it was a bit distracting.
Just as Wang Chong stood up, one of the young people at the table raised his voice slightly and said bitterly: "These cultivation dogs are always so arrogant and look down on people."
Someone next to him also answered, saying: "So what if I look down on you? Who are you? He is the great master of cultivation. We only have the original Dao Sutra to practice. No matter how we practice, we can't live longer than a hundred years."
The owner of the noodle shop came over and said with a smile: "Why can't the original Taoist scriptures cultivate immortality? Aren't there people who have cultivated the Great Evolution and can fly into the sky and escape from the earth at every pass?"
The young man who complained just now sneered: "Yes! Among one or two thousand people, there may be one, but look at these cultivation dogs! Almost all of them can cultivate to the Great Evolution, and among two or three people, there must be one One, the speed of cultivation is several times faster than ours. Isn’t it because the sect’s techniques are so good? If everyone practices the same way, we won’t be far behind these cultivation dogs.”
The owner of the noodle shop wanted to persuade him again, but he heard a clear voice shouting: "Brother Ren, you are talking nonsense again, that is, those cultivating masters never convict for their words, otherwise you would have been arrested long ago. ”
A girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a coarse Tsing Yi, walked in with a smile.
The young man who had just complained immediately stopped talking. He made a gesture, and several young people at the same table ate noodles together, quickly paid the bill, and followed the girl.
The owner of the noodle shop sighed slightly when he saw them leaving.
In fact, he naturally knows that these people are going to attend some gathering of the Alchemy Sect. These people use the practice of the Alchemy Sect as a link. They have disciples at the eighteen passes. They are obviously the largest hidden people in the old people of China. power.
It's just that the noodle shop owner is also an old citizen of China. Of course he won't report these people, not to mention he doesn't think these young people can do anything bad.
These young men followed the girl and entered a courtyard.
There were dozens of people in the courtyard. The young girl led the people there and mixed in with those people. After a while, a middle-aged man in a green robe came over and coughed lightly. Everyone was solemn and stopped talking.
The middle-aged man said slowly: "Our Alchemy Sect is about to produce a golden elixir. The sect leader has been in seclusion for dozens of days and will soon break through. If the sect leader understands the golden elixir method, he will definitely spread it to everyone. , sooner or later we will be able to appear like those monks from various sects, with golden elixirs and even Yang Zhen powers."
After hearing the middle-aged man's words, these dozens of people did not dare to shout loudly, but they were quite excited. They whispered to each other and even shouted excitedly in low voices. Many people shouted: "The master of the gate is mighty, the master of the gate is mighty." …”
The middle-aged man smiled slightly, pointed at everyone, and said, "Today I am going to test the progress of your practice. Has anyone tried to form a tripod in the past few days?"
Immediately, seven people came out of the crowd, and the middle-aged man asked again: "Who successfully formed the cauldron?"
In the noodle shop just now, the complaining young man shouted excitedly: "I have successfully formed a tripod."
When the middle-aged man asked just now, it was just casually. He didn't think that anyone could really succeed in forming a cauldron. As soon as the young man said this, not only him, but the other six people who stood up also looked sideways. Needless to say, these six people were all trying. The tripod failed, and there was a look of jealousy in his eyes.
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and encouraged: "Hurry up and show it to your fellow disciples."
The young man opened his arms, and his lower abdomen suddenly emitted real heat. An illusory alchemy furnace appeared faintly. On the alchemy furnace, there was a small hole that was spitting out flames.
The middle-aged man shouted happily: "Sure enough, the cauldron was successfully formed. Your true energy is biased toward flames, so you can work more on fire techniques."
