Chapter 42
"Children can be taught! Reading, painting, and even practicing are not the same thing, but there are some principles that are interlinked."

The old city god was quite relieved, turned his head and said to Master Meng: "The old man searched his stomach, but gave him all the stock! It's rare to get up early tonight, so let's get promoted."

"Deputy Xian wait a moment, the next official will go to prepare." Master Meng saluted respectfully, and hurried away with Bai Dutou.

Qi Jingzhi gave a deep bow, and solemnly expressed his thanks: "Thank you for your advice, my lord!"

The old city god waved his hand, and said indifferently: "The old man is just a layman, I just hope that I don't mislead my disciples."

Qi Jingzhi shook his head, solemnly and respectfully: "As the saying goes, one sentence is true, and thousands of volumes of books are false. The teachings of adults are all true knowledge and insights. They will enlighten the juniors to the key points of cultivation. I don't know how many detours will be avoided in the future."

Although the young man practiced for a short period of time, he also gained a lot of experience, which corroborates what the old city god said, and there is some similarity.

These days, he has been studying the "Xian Yu Jing" quite smoothly, and every time he has epiphany, it is like eating and drinking water.Looking back at this moment, apart from my reluctance to be restrained and the coincidence of this sutra, I am afraid that it is also because I often recite the scriptures silently and visualize white cranes, so that the physical and mental state is more in line with the practice.

This is a habit he has developed from studying since he was a child, and it is not mentioned in the fragments, nor in Lu Yunzi's memory fragments, but it is clearly the method used by those high-name disciples in the old city's mouth to nourish their hearts and bones.

In addition, Jiao Yulang's statement that quack warlocks have a lack of heart and mind, so that it is difficult to find exercises and practice them, also fits closely with the old city god's heart and bones.It can be seen that what the other party said is the real mystery of cultivation, the most important thing.

With this in mind, the young man once again sincerely thanked: "My lord's kindness, I am deeply grateful to you! I dare you to ask your lord's name?"

"Old man Yu Zhongnan."

Old City God Yu paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "I, Yu, originated from the Jiang surname Chunyu. Going back to ancient times, I can't say that I am related to you."

Qi Jingzhi smiled knowingly, with a touch of emotion in his tone: "The younger generation has lived for 16 years, and has never benefited from his surname. Only when he heard about some secret bloodlines recently, did he know that this surname is also a kind of power."

"Benefits? Power?"

Old Chenghuang Yu was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you talking about Lu Ao? I know what you're thinking, but I just think this world is too stupid. Practitioners are also connected by blood, it only depends on who the ancestor is!"

Qi Jingzhi nodded and said frankly, "Your Excellency really hit the nail on the head!"

In the past few days, he first witnessed Lu Ao's change of fate because of his blood, and then learned from Jiao Yulang how miserable those unfounded warlocks are. No. is not high.

After hearing and seeing, it is not surprising that Qi Jingzhi has such thoughts.

Unexpectedly, the old Chenghuang's complexion suddenly sank, and the law lines on his face became deeper and deeper, revealing the profound majesty accumulated in the long years before and after his death.

"Do you still think that Yu has the honor of having the same surname Jiang as the lord of the country, so that as a mere third-rank official, he surpassed those colleagues of the first and second ranks in front of him, and was able to be named a county town god after his death? ?”

He stared at the young man, with lightning flashing in his eyes, and said coldly, "Are you thinking that the reason why the old man is willing to mention you is not only Meng Xiucai's face, but also because your surname is Qi?"

The sudden repeated questioning was like thunderbolts, crashing into Qi Jingzhi's heart.

This kind of mysterious method of concealing divine power in words and eyes, the young man had learned it from Master Meng, now because of the old city god's use, the power is not only several times greater?
It really is as powerful as hell and as powerful as lightning!
For a moment, Qi Jingzhi only felt his heart pounding, the spirit accumulated in his chest was scattered, his eyes were even more painful, and he almost shed tears.

"My lord is right, that's exactly what I think!"

Qi Jingzhi tried his best to open his eyes wide, and said loudly without hesitation: "The Zhenmo Academy divides divisions by blood, and among them, Chi Yousi specializes in accepting Lu Ao's blood descendants of the Yan Emperor and the descendant of the Holy Jiang, which shows that Da Qi has great respect for blood. It’s so important to other people, isn’t it true that you don’t ask about your background when you enshrine the gods?”

"As for the younger generation, even though they have the national surname, they have nothing to do with the royal family of Daqi. Thinking about it, they still can't get into the eyes of the adults. With your blue eyes and your willingness to preach and solve doubts, it is a great favor to me, let alone other things! "

Facing the power of ghosts and gods, the young man did not have the slightest fear, instead, every word and every sentence was clear and clear.

Seeing this, the old city god Yu suddenly lost his anger, clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Good! It's all right to draw inferences from one instance and know the truth by seeing the small things. Facing the old man's heart-breaking questions, he still has the courage to express his heart. This kind of disposition is rare, no wonder Meng Xiucai values ​​you so much."

"What you just said is right. There are indeed many people in this world who value their surnames and bloodlines more than anything else. This is true in the world of mortals, as well as those in practice. If the younger generation of any family is up to the challenge, everyone will inevitably praise it. As expected of someone’s descendant, isn’t that the reason? As for this old man…”

He paused for a moment, and said solemnly: "Yu went from a poor family to a third rank, and was able to become a god after his death. Putting aside his own talents and hard work, it is only natural that he has a share of the credit for this name!"

The young man couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect that Yu Old City God not only didn't try his best to cover up, but also admitted it so straightforwardly and confidently.

"Qi Jingzhi, you are one of the few smart people in this world, which is very good. However, smart people are also the easiest to get into a dead end. Once you can't get out, you will inevitably die from sitting. But since you want to take the road of cultivation, there are some things that you should avoid. not open."

Although Yu Laochenghuang withdrew his divine power, his eyes were still sharp.

With a solemn expression, he stared into the boy's eyes and asked, "Let me ask you, in such a world, what would you do when you meet those bastards who look down on people?"

Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi didn't rush to answer, but thought about it seriously before he said solemnly: "It's his business that he sees people as inferior. As long as he doesn't make enemies with me, the juniors don't bother to pay attention. If they are enemies, naturally Slash it!"

"Oh? This old man is a man and a god. It has been more than a hundred years. I have heard and seen a few heroes who rose from the grass. Because they have suffered enough since they were young, most of them are full of hostility. The style of a famous family and aristocratic family always wants to overthrow everything and rebuild the universe, and even if it doesn't work, it will be replaced before it is willing to give up..."

Old Chenghuang Yu paused, and asked with interest: "With your intelligence and courage, don't you have such a pattern and ambition in your chest?"

"The juniors have never been used to this world, so they would rather run wild in the mountains than study and become an official."

Qi Jingzhi shook his head and said: "However, the battle of ideas is the most boring. If I don't like it today, I will change it. If I don't like it tomorrow, I will change it. There is no point in arguing. Besides, it is human nature to value surnames and bloodlines." It's normal, can I still force the world to forget their ancestors?"

"I once heard Master Meng say that the Jiang surname has continued to this day, and there are at least hundreds of branches of each family. Needless to say, Emperor Yan, the first ancestors of the following branches must also be extremely powerful figures. Among the surnames that have been handed down to this day, which family does not have a luxurious ancestor, and whose bloodline is not noble?"

Old Chenghuang Yu became more surprised the more he heard it, and couldn't help asking the young man, "So?"

"So, those mediocre people who cling to their surnames and bloodlines, and only judge their status by family status, have never been in the eyes of the younger generation. If they only want to overthrow, rebuild, and replace them, wouldn't they be exalted and underestimated? Myself?"

"When you are down for a while, it is right to respect the heaven and the ancestors and strive to be strong. There is no need to be angry with others. People will not offend me, and I will not offend others."

Hearing this, Old City God Yu showed admiration: "What a superhuman insight! What an open-minded mind!"

He paused for a while, and spit out another sentence: "What a domineering arrogance!"
