Prehistoric: A steady life, starting from Journey to the West

This made Chen Qi couldn't help frowning. If every small realm is doubled, then it is completely conceivable how terrifying the next consumption will be.

This made him wonder whether the millions of books in the Hanlin Academy could support him to cultivate to the realm of land gods.

"Forget it, don't think about it so much for now. There must be a way for people to go to the mountain, and the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's talk about the future."

"The most important thing now is to improve your own strength, so that you can gain the power to protect yourself as soon as possible."

Chen Qi shook his head, dispelling the worries in his mind, and then continued to meditate in his heart: "System, raise the first level of the basic body training technique of the human race to the realm of Xiaocheng.".

Chapter 31 Summary, a shortcut to experience points! (for collection)

The first level of the basic body training technique of the human race is small, the middle stage of the ninth rank of martial arts, and the muscle training is completed!

"boom!"

When Chen Qi punched out, the big tendons in his body were like a spring compressed to the extreme. Obviously his own strength didn't increase much, but his explosive power more than doubled.

This is the effect of tendon training, which makes the martial artist's explosive power stronger, and the strength that can be exerted is stronger.

"Is this power?"

Chen Qi closed his eyes, and carefully felt the surging power in his body like a river. Until now, he did not know the gap between ordinary people and warriors.

Such a gap cannot be made up by swords and armor at all, and it is not at the same level at all.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and started a new summary.

No way, who made his system dumb, and there is no instruction manual.

So in order to make better use of the golden finger in the future, he can only make a summary by himself.

"The improvement of the basic body training technique of the human race is completely different from the acquired 64 hexagrams. During the improvement process of the former, the consciousness enters a mystical space, transforms into a small person to practice in person, and affects the external body through the practice in the sea of ​​consciousness space."

"And the latter is the instillation of pure practice and perception, similar to epiphany. Is it because one is a body training method and the other is a secret method?"

Chen Qi was a little skeptical.

"In addition, when the body refining technique is promoted, a strange power is generated out of thin air, which replaces the precious medicine assistance required for cultivation, and also avoids the possibility of failure due to lack of energy during the promotion process."

"Then where does this energy come from? Could it be transformed by system experience?"

"If this energy is transformed by system experience points, then what kind of power is the so-called experience points?"

"Is it the energy of heaven and earth accumulated by the system itself during the reading process, or the so-called spiritual power?"

"Experience points can not only allow people to enter a state of epiphany, but also can be turned into energy from heaven and earth to supplement the needs of cultivation. Is this because the mind is strong enough to affect reality?"

Chen Qi recorded his conjectures one by one, and when the conclusion was almost complete, he burned them all before taking the candle to avoid leaving hidden dangers.

However, experience points can replace the energy required for cultivation, which is undoubtedly good news for Chen Qi.

This means that he doesn't have to worry about cultivation resources at all in the future, he just needs to keep reading.

Don't underestimate this point, because the saying "poor culture and rich martial arts, practice law and destroy family" is not just a casual saying.

With his annual salary of more than twenty taels, let alone practicing martial arts and immortality, it is already good enough to support himself and not starve to death.

Of course, the salary issued by the imperial court includes not only silver taels, but also food and fields.

It is impossible for the officials to really starve to death.

It's just that if it's just silver, it's okay to say that many key cultivation resources have been monopolized by the imperial court, aristocratic families, and sect forces.

Ordinary people can't buy cultivation resources no matter how much money they have.

Therefore, when using experience points to improve skills, there is no need to consume resources, and experience points can replace practice resources.

For Chen Qi, this matter is definitely a great thing.

Must be celebrated.

Well, let's celebrate with tonight's all-night study!

Chen Qi thought of this, picked up a copy of "Mencius" from the desk, and read it with relish.

"Mencius" is a classic work of Confucianism, written by Mencius and his disciples Wan Zhang and Gongsun Chou in the middle of the Warring States Period.

There are seven chapters and fourteen volumes, with a total word count of more than 260 characters, subdivided into [-] chapters, and the number of words is almost double that of "The Analects of Confucius".

However, at this time, Chen Qi, who had read the "Analects" thoroughly, and then read "Mencius" in reverse, only felt that the language and grammar that were a little difficult to understand before suddenly became clear and easy to understand.

The reason is that the two books "Mencius" and "The Analects of Confucius" have too many things in common.

This kind of commonality is not only spiritual and ideological, but also a lot of linguistic commonality.

Chen Qi's reading progress of "The Analects of Confucius" has reached [-]%, which is equivalent to having thoroughly read the book "The Analects of Confucius", and also fully understood the various subtleties and meanings in "The Analects of Confucius", and Confucius' thoughts.

In this way, reading "Mencius" in turn will naturally be much simpler.

As a result, after Chen Qi finished reading "Mencius", the reading progress jumped from 20.00%60.00 to [-]%[-].

Just reading it once will increase the reading progress by 40.00%.

Such a scene made Chen Qi overjoyed.

This means that his previous guess is completely correct. The reading progress of the book does not depend on how many times he has read it, but on whether he can fully understand the thoughts and ideas that the book wants to explain.

This also means that the more books Chen Qi reads and the higher his level of education, the easier it is to improve his reading progress.

For example, if he can read the Four Books and Five Classics, then he can read other Confucian classics in turn. He may only need to read it once to fully understand it, and he can increase the reading progress of the book to [-]%.

In this way, the difficulty for him to obtain experience points will undoubtedly be reduced a lot, and the speed will be much faster.

It is equivalent to finding a shortcut to gain experience value by reading, no need to study hard, just read dead books.

Chapter 32 Thank you at the court meeting, and it's all up to you to take a job!

Time flies like a white horse, and two days passed in a blink of an eye.

The etiquette training of Chen Qi and his group of new scholars came to an end. Everyone happily walked out of the Honglu Temple as if they were relieved, and began to prepare for tomorrow's morning morning thanksgiving.

According to the requirements of the "Datang Huidian", after the three-day training at Honghe Temple, the number one scholar will lead the Jinshi to express their gratitude.

It can be regarded as a test of the results of the three-day etiquette training at Honglu Temple.

This time the table of gratitude is a standard court meeting, which means that this day happens to be the day when all civil and military officials go to court.

Thanking you at the court meeting is the best way to test the etiquette of new Jinshi.

The location of the court meeting is still the Tai Chi Hall.

On this day, just after dawn, Chen Qi put on his crown clothes early in the morning, and went to the palace alone.

Different from the previous two visits to the palace, Chen Qi felt a little lonely when he entered the palace this time.

Standing alone in front of the palace, bearing the isolation of other Jinshi and the pointing and pointing of court officials.

No way, three days passed, enough for Chen Qi's reputation to spread throughout Chang'an City.

Of course, his article "The Theory of Exterminating Buddha and Rapid Wealth" must not have been circulated, and only Emperor Zhenguan and a few important court officials are eligible to read it.

The others didn't know the real reason why Chen Qi offended the emperor, and it was impossible to know what kind of angry articles he had written in his arguments. They only knew that he didn't respect sages, immortals and Buddhas.

It is also understandable that if Chen Qi's arguments are really published, it will also greatly affect the glorious image of Buddhism.

I can't tell everyone that Buddhism has tens of thousands of temples in the Tang Dynasty, hundreds of thousands or even millions of monks and nuns, and occupies millions of fertile fields, eating meat and drinking, and all of them No need to pay taxes.

If the imperial court really dared to publish such an article, the people at the bottom would not be crazy.

Damn it, being a monk is so good, why not just put down the hoe and become a Buddha right away?

When you become a monk, you don't have to worry about being hungry, you don't have to worry about being bullied by aristocratic families, and you don't have to be taxed by the imperial court.

That's why Li Shimin and others were crazy to publish Chen Qi's essays to the public. They could only use the name of "disrespecting sages" and "disrespecting immortals and Buddhas" to send him directly to the Imperial Academy.

And what about other civil and military officials?

Although they didn't know what Chen Qi wrote, but the emperor had spoken, would they dare to confront Li Shimin?

So they can only do what they like and suppress Chen Qi.

Not long after, the gate of the palace opened wide, and all civil and military officials lined up to enter according to their ranks. Chen Qi also followed the Jinshi team and followed the crowd to the Taiji Hall.

Then, under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, the thank you form written in advance was placed on a table engraved with dragon patterns not far from the gate of Taiji Hall.

The above table of thanks is a fixed program, and there is no room for development in the content of the table.

It's nothing more than gratitude to the present day, etc., just like the thank-you letter written by Chen Qi's former employees to the company leaders, it's just flattery and flattery anyway.

Perhaps it was because Chen Qi had a criminal record, so when he wrote the gratitude form, the officials of Honglu Temple guided the whole process, and after writing it, they did not forget to check it personally.

Just in case he messes with his gratitude form and writes something he shouldn't.

Regarding this, Chen Qi was very speechless.

He is not stupid, how could he do something in this situation?

Something like a gratitude watch is just a face-saving image project, so it's no wonder Li Shimin would read it.

Just like the thank-you letters and suggestions letters that employees of later generations are compelled to write to company leaders, which company leader would really read these.

If he engages in this aspect, not only will Li Shimin not know about it, but it will be of no use at all.

He would also offend the officials of Honglu Temple and the servants of the palace, and be hated by everyone.

His head was caught by the door, so he did this thankless and useless work.

Besides, he is not an iron-headed boy, and there is no need to use his small body to test whether the Tang Dynasty's sword is good or bad, and whether it can kill people.

Therefore, Chen Qi was very honest during the entire court meeting, standing behind the Jinshi, like a little transparent, inconspicuous at all.

He does what others do, he says what others say, and follows the trend throughout the process.

At the beginning of the court meeting, Chen Guangrui, the number one scholar, presented a thank you table on behalf of all the Jinshi, and led all the Jinshi to pay homage to Li Shimin, the emperor of Zhenguan, who was sitting on the dragon chair.

"Whether you enter the Hongwen Museum, or enter the yamen of the six departments of the three provinces, you should serve the country and the people. Don't slack off, otherwise I will never forgive you lightly."

Zhenguan Emperor Li Shimin, sitting high on the dragon chair, looked at the newly promoted Jinshi kneeling in the hall, nodded in satisfaction, opened his golden mouth, and exhorted the Jinshi again.

"Follow the decree."

The emperor said so, what else can Chen Qi and others do, of course you are right.

After the above table of gratitude is completed, this court meeting will be successfully completed.

Emperor Zhenguan left the venue first, and then the civil and military officials also went back to their respective homes.

As for Chen Qi and other new scholars, they first went to the Ministry of Officials to receive official documents, official uniforms, seals, etc., and then reported to the yamen they were going to.

Of course, the Jinshi who were left to serve in Chang'an City like Chen Qi were fine, those who were appointed to other places, or even the Xiaoqian world controlled by Datang, would not be able to report for their appointment in a short while.

It's okay to be close to the place of work, as long as you work hard, you can get there in ten or eight days.

If you are far away, it will be hard to say, and you can go to the place in three to five months if you go smoothly.

If it doesn't go well, it may become the ghost of a certain green forest hero, or some mountain spirits, wild monsters, demons and ghosts.

These are all possible, anyway, the imperial court is not responsible for the transfer.

Everything is up to you.

Chapter 33 Supernatural powers, great righteousness, and the three swords of Mencius (for collection)

After the court meeting to thank you, Chen Qi received the scholar's document from the Imperial Academy from the Ministry of Officials, and returned to the other courtyard of the Yang Mansion indifferently.

Sad and disappointed?

It doesn't exist at all, okay?

When he returned to his residence, he casually threw aside the official uniform in his hand, and he couldn't wait to pick up "Mencius" and continue reading.

At this time, his reading progress of "Mencius" has reached 90.00%[-], and it takes at most two times to read "Mencius" thoroughly.

In this way, another experience value is recorded, and there may be additional surprises.
