Chapter 58 The spiritual root is hard to find
The road down the mountain is not difficult. It winds down until it reaches the bottom of the valley below. The road continues into the Luo Family Immortal Square.
Looking around from here, one can clearly see the general architectural divisions of Xianfang. In the distance are hills that are not too high, scattered here and there. On each hill there are carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions, and mountains. There are water veins running through it, and there is a lake in the distance, forming a beautiful landscape.
Here, many places are surrounded by clouds and mist, appearing and disappearing, accompanied by the sound of cranes chirping. It is more like the grand scene of an immortal's home, and it is more refined. Lu Shi can even think of living here. There will definitely be a sense of transcendence, and I can't help but look forward to it.
Going all the way down, we soon came to the foot of the mountain, and we saw a tall attic. There were no people along the way, but here we saw people coming in and out of the tall attic.
Lu Shi saw an elegant middle-aged man walking out of the attic. After seeing Lu Shi, he smiled and nodded at him, then turned and left.
After being startled for a moment, Lu Shi took a closer look at the man, but found that with his own eyesight, he could not see through the man's cultivation level. He immediately understood in his heart that the man's cultivation level must be higher than his own.
With a solemn look on his face, Lu Shi gathered his thoughts and walked into the attic.
This building is called the General Affairs Building. When you enter the door, you will see a huge counter-like table, which occupies less than half of the hall. There is a person sitting on a futon behind the table. He is an old man with a pale complexion, closing his eyes and concentrating.
As if he noticed someone coming in, the old man opened his eyes, which were very clear. He raised his eyes and looked at Lu Shi.
"Hey, are you new here?" the old man asked.
Lu Shi cupped his fists and saluted, and replied: "That's right, this junior is from outside the mountain."
The old man touched his beard, looked at Lu Shi carefully, and then nodded: "It seems that he came from outside the twin peaks. It's interesting. There hasn't been an ordinary person like you in this immortal workshop for several years." If someone enters it, you will have a good opportunity."
"Senior has been rewarded, but junior is also a little confused." Lu Shize said.
"Okay, then you want to stay here?"
"Exactly, I dare to ask senior, what are the requirements for this junior to live in this fairy house?"
The old man nodded, turned his hand, and a jade pendant-shaped jade plate appeared in his hand. He said, "Name, age, and origin. Well, don't use pseudonyms. The rules of the fairy house are to conceal the name of the person." Don’t stay.”
When Lu Shi heard this, he said seriously: "Junior Lu Shi, from Dafeng, is seventeen years old."
The old man did not raise his head, but pointed to the jade tablet and began to write, but did not see any writing appearing.
"Have you tested your spiritual roots?"
The old man asked without raising his head.
Lu Shi shook his head.
"Never tested."
Lu Shi answered truthfully.
The old man raised his head at this time and said: "I see that although you are at the first level of Qi training, your body is pure and pure. It was not transformed from the innate master of martial arts, but you have practiced the authentic Qi training method?"
Lu Shi pondered slightly, but the old man did not rush him, but just waited quietly, as if he knew Lu Shi's concerns.
In the end, Lu Shi nodded and said, "This junior is indeed practicing the authentic Qi refining method."
The "Yunshui Qi Training Method" is a spiritual root cultivation method. For monks, it is indeed the most authentic method of Qi training. Lu Shi still knows this.
The old man said: "Your true energy is biased towards the water attribute. You should be in the water attribute path, right?"
"exactly."
At this time, Lu Shi didn't hide anything and told the truth.
The old man nodded slightly and looked at Lu Shi before saying, "You are lucky enough to be able to find the authentic method of refining qi in that ordinary place, and you happen to have spiritual roots in your body. Judging from how old you are, He is big, his true energy is also pure, and his talent is probably pretty good. I have an opportunity here, little friend, would you like to give it a try?"
Lu Shi's heart sank slightly when he heard this, but he remained calm on the surface. The change in the old man's name made Lu Shi think of a lot for a while.
"I hope senior will make it clear."
Lu Shi pretended to be slightly surprised when he spoke, but in fact he was already wary inside.
"My name is Luo Xueyi. You can call me Mr. Luo. I am considered a branch of the Luo family in Immortal House. If your talent is good, little friend, I will have a good marriage for you here."
Lu Shi's expression changed, looking a little strange.
"Marriage? Mr. Luo...what does this mean?"
"Hehehe."
Mr. Luo chuckled softly, threw the jade token to Lu Shi, stood up from the futon, swayed, and appeared at the door, waved to Lu Shi and stepped out.
Lu Shi took the jade token and looked at it, and found that a flash of fluorescence appeared and then disappeared. After thinking about it, he tied it to his belt as a jade pendant, and then followed.
Outside the door, Mr. Luo stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the distant mountains.
"You entered this immortal workshop through the entrance of the twin peaks. You should know how difficult it is to find immortality in the ordinary world."
Lu Shi nodded but said nothing.
Mr. Luo added: "The entrance to the twin peaks is the entrance left to ordinary people with spiritual roots in our Luo Family Immortal Workshop. If you have spiritual roots, you can still enter it even if you have not reached the Qi refining stage. And if he is young, he can be supported by my Luo family and be counted as a member of my Luo family. This is also a benefit left by the Immortal Sect to a monk family like my Luo family."
As he said that, Mr. Luo chuckled: "I'm afraid it's because those who don't know spiritual roots are rare among the common people. It's not wrong to say that there is only one in a million. In a family of monks like ours, although there will be some in every generation, A descendant with spiritual roots is born, but the probability is only slightly better than that of ordinary people."
Mr. Luo turned around and looked Lu Shi up and down: "You are seventeen years old and at the first level of qi training. Although I don't know how long you have been practicing, I guess it won't be too long. After all, if no one teaches you, you also need to have certain skills. Only through experience can you know how to practice, so I dare to conclude that your practice time must not exceed five years. This kind of speed is nothing if you look at the Immortal Sect, but for a monk family like our Luo family, it is not bad. It’s a fairy seedling.”
After Lu Shi heard this, he already understood a little bit in his heart. What Mr. Luo meant was that he wanted to marry him.
Sure enough, then I heard Mr. Luo say again: "I happen to have a granddaughter who is pretty and only two years older than you. If you are qualified, you can become a Taoist couple with my granddaughter. How about that?" "
"This……"
Lu Shi hesitated for a moment. He was not pretending, he was really undecided.
If Mr. Luo had no other plans and it was someone else, this would really be a good thing. As soon as you enter the Immortal Chamber, you will have a backer, which is something that is rare for any monk who has just entered the Immortal Chamber to seek immortality.
But Lu Shi had some scruples. After all, he had the Ruyi Dao Fruit in his body. Lu Shi didn't want much. He just wanted to find a stable place to practice. But looking at the situation in front of me, if I don't agree, I'm afraid there will be some twists and turns.
Thinking of this, Lu Shi took a deep breath and said: "Mr. Xie Luo values him, but the younger generation is still ignorant in practice so far. He doesn't even know his own qualifications. He is afraid that he will be disappointed by Mr. Luo."
Mr. Luo chuckled lightly and said: "This is easy to handle. Come with me to the Yundao Platform to test your spiritual root qualifications, and everything will be answered."
"In this case, Mr. Luo will be troubled."
At this point in his words, Lu Shi could only take one step at a time, only to realize that his encounters were more or less magical.
Who would have thought that yesterday, while still struggling to seek immortality, a marriage would be bound to him today?
