Cultivation Begins With a Mysterious Tripod/
Chapter 3: Rising
Soon the school-age children in the village lined up.
Seeing this, the woman waved her hand, and an exquisite table appeared out of thin air. Under everyone's surprised gaze, she took out a fist-sized milky white stone and placed it on the table..
"Let's begin. Place your hand on the stone and count to five. If you can make the stone glow, it means you have a spiritual root and immortal resources. You can follow me to Fallen Feathers Sect..
”
"You, come forward..
”
The first child in the line stepped forward and pressed his hand on the stone as required.
" This is my Xiao Hua. Little Hua, cheer up…" Next to her, the child's mother waved excitedly. The village chief saw this and quickly came over to stop her shouting." Quiet, quiet, don't disturb the fairy..
”
Hearing this, the child's mother quickly covered her mouth and kept quiet, but her excited and eager eyes showed her nervousness at the moment..
Unfortunately, after five counts, the stone on the table did not change at all..
"Not qualified, next..
The woman's calm voice seemed to have been expected..
The child called Xiaohua was at a loss when he saw this. He stood where he was with tears in his eyes. The village chief was quick to react and quickly pulled him to his mother's side..
"Mother…"
The tears in Xiaohua's eyes immediately burst out.
" It's okay. Little Light is good. We're not going to learn the magic. We'll stay in the village. I'll cook your favorite braised pork tonight..." Little Light's mother comforted her child. Although she was disappointed, she could not let her child see it..
Soon, one child after another was tested, but there was no exception. The stone on the table remained motionless, without any change..
The child named Xiaohua had stopped crying long ago. Seeing so many people like him, he didn't feel embarrassed at all..
"It's lit, it's lit…"
Suddenly, an exclamation came from somewhere. Everyone looked over and saw the milky white stone on the table shining brightly..
Everyone did not dare to breathe loudly and stared straight at the child in front of the table..
The woman in white seemed surprised. She tilted her head and looked at the youth in front of her." What's your name?"
"O, O Immortal, my name is Wang Feng..
The boy bit his finger and was nervous, but there was not much excitement..
" Haha, isn't that my useless brat…" The middle-aged man laughed excitedly..
" Little brother, little brother actually succeeded…" Wang Tong was stunned beside the middle-aged man..
"Wang Feng, qualified..
The woman nodded and pointed to her side,"Stand beside me.".
”
The king shook his head repeatedly: "I, I…I don't want to cultivate, I want to obtain fame, I want to be a high official.".
”
The woman was stunned. She didn't know what to say for a moment..
It was not easy to have a child with spiritual roots, but he refused to cultivate?
As he spoke, Wang Feng ran in the direction of his father, causing everyone to laugh..
Wang Fu, who was at the back of the team, knew that Wang Tong, this younger brother, had his own ambition. He really wanted to be a high official. As for cultivation... Wang Feng would sneer at all the stories he had told about immortals..
The court is the largest, and the immortals are behind..
"Brat, if you dare to come back, I'll break your legs..
The king's father immediately took off his shoes and smashed them toward the king who was running back..
Wang Feng only stopped for a moment and ran back..
Wang Feng's father finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He took a few big strides over and pulled Wang Feng's arm. He slapped Wang Feng's butt and made Wang Tong's eyelids jump..
Wang Tong was angry, funny, and envious..
He didn't succeed, but his younger brother who didn't want to cultivate succeeded. It was really a joke of fate..
In the end, Wang Feng succumbed to his father's tyranny and stood not far away from the white-clothed woman..
The usually cold woman in white didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this. It wasn't the first time he had tested a mortal's spiritual root, but it was the first time he had seen such a scene. He found it interesting..
"Continue.
She shook her head and almost couldn't maintain her fairy's dignity..
More than half of the nearly thirty school-age children in Wutong Village had gone, leaving only a few people behind..
" Little Fatty, do you think we can succeed?" Wang Fu looked at the few people in front of him and was extremely nervous..
"Brother Fu, be confident..
The village chief's fat heart is relaxed and fat,"as long as you dare to think, you will always succeed.".
”
Wang Fu smiled bitterly..
:.
Soon, it's Little Fatty's turn..
The next one was Wang Fu himself. He watched Little Fatty put his fleshy toot hand on the white stone. He was so nervous that his palm was sweating.
Buzz!
The stone lit up..
" Light, light! Light again!" The villagers who were staring intently were the first to notice..
"Village Chief, congratulations, Village Chief. Your family is going to have an immortal..
"Everyone naturally recognized the little fatty in front of the table and congratulated the village chief..
" Haha…" The village chief immediately laughed happily." No, no…" He sighed heavily in his heart. When he saw that the second son of the Wang family had passed the test, he had been tightly worried. If his grandson failed, when the officials of the imperial court came down later, he might have to change his title as village chief..
"Brother Fu, look, I said you have to be confident..
"Little Fatty turned his head and smiled at Wang Fu..
"Name?"
Hearing the beautiful immortal's voice, Little Fatty quickly turned around and said," Zhou Peng!.
”
"Well, qualified, stand beside me.
The second child with spiritual roots appeared, and the woman was no longer so surprised..
Those with spiritual roots were one in ten thousand. She had met no child with spiritual roots in a mortal county, and she had also met several children with spiritual roots in a small ravine..
Spiritual roots have something to do with bloodlines and regions..
"Next…"
Wang Fu took a deep breath and placed his palm on the stone. It was ice-cold…
Five minutes later, Wang Fu felt that it was too long..
He was extremely nervous. When the fifth count was completed, the white stone finally emitted a faint white light..
" This, this... how does this count?" Wang Fu looked at this fairy who he had never seen before anxiously..
"When it's lit, it's over..
”
Wang Fu felt that this voice was from Wutong Village, no…it was the best voice in the entire county and the entire world..
"Thank you, thank you Immortal..
”
He quickly stood beside Fatty, his heart still beating non-stop..
Brother Fu, how do you feel?.
"Zhou Peng smiled..
"It feels good..
Wang Fu wanted to shout out loud and vent his excitement. He knew that from this moment on, he would also have the opportunity to be like the immortals mentioned in the stories in the school books..
Slay demons and eliminate demons, fly into the sky and escape from the earth.
Not far away, Wang Fu's father was even more excited..
"Master Wang, congratulations…"
"Haha…"
After a while, the test ended. Except for Wang Fu and the other two, no one else could make the stone on the table light up..
The villagers looked at the relatives of the three children and complimented them one after another..
The old man of the school was also praised, and all the children in the village were taught by him..
The old man stroked his beard and smiled: "At the beginning, these three children were still the names I gave them, meaning extraordinary.".
”
"What did the old man say?"
"As the saying goes,'The roc rises in the same wind in one day and rises 90,000 li in the same wind.'.
”
"Not bad, not bad, that kid in my family is called Zhou Qi…Unfortunately, he wasn't chosen by the immortals..
”
" There's no hurry. If you can't become an immortal, you can still become an official. You can still seek glory and wealth…"
