Strange mountains and rivers

Chen Huaisheng went to see Yu Fengqian before leaving Dongyuan Town.

Even if they were in tune with each other, they both knew that they had their own goals and tasks and could not ruin their future.

For cultivators, love should be put after the plan of cultivation, not to mention that for Fengqian and Chen Huaisheng, now is not the time for love.

Yu Fengqian wanted to wait for the appearance of Yunmi Realm with the senior teachers of the Holy Fire Sect, but Chen Huaisheng had given up this plan. He had his own schedule, but considering the huge expenses of Taiyi Spirit Body, even if Yu Fengqian helped him borrow tens of thousands of spirit stones, there would still be very little left.

And to continue south to Bianjing and Luoyi, there might be other needs, so Chen Huaisheng borrowed 20,000 spirit stones from the Holy Fire Sect, and then he felt at ease.

He didn't spend it in Bianjing City, but in Luoyi City, Chen Huaisheng planned to put these 20,000 spirit stones to use.

"According to your request, I have selected 32 copies of Taoist Scriptures and Skills. You can take a look at them first. If you think they are useful to you, you can keep them..."

The last cooperation on the Hualin Garden incident brought Mi Shaohua and Chen Huaisheng closer to each other. It can even be said that their relationship based on interests is closer than that of ordinary friends.

Everyone knows that once this matter is leaked, Chen Huaisheng will naturally not be able to gain a foothold in Dazhao. He will face the pursuit and even hunting from the official Zhao family, the Taoist Palace and the Western Tang Dynasty, while Mi Shaohua may be directly killed, and even his respective sects and families will be implicated.

The two were tied together because of this matter, which made their relationship far beyond ordinary friends.

The 32 volumes of Scriptures and Skills were also selected according to the scope mentioned by Chen Huaisheng. For Mi Shaohua, these things are not very meaningful. He has long lost the motivation to make progress in cultivation, especially when he saw Chen Huaisheng's progress day by day, and then looked at his own talents, he lost interest even more.

Mi Shaohua is now nearly fifty years old, with four sons and two daughters, but two of the four sons and one daughter are ordinary mortals, one son is an acquired Dao seed, and only one son and one daughter are innate Dao seeds, and they are just ten years old now.

Logically speaking, a large and prestigious family like the Mi family is not short of resources, and Mi Shaohua is also a legitimate son, so his descendants can naturally be treated preferentially, but Mi Shaohua knows that large families also have their own difficulties and pain points.

In his father's line alone, he has more than 20 brothers and sisters in his generation. Even the so-called legitimate sons and daughters, that is, the so-called Dao couples, have 13 children, and their children add up to more than 60 people, among which there are more than 20 innate Dao seeds, and there are also six or seven with better talents than his son and one daughter.

Moreover, although the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children is also discussed in large families, it is not so important. There are more than ten brothers and sisters born to his father's companions, and they are not young either. They also have more than 30 children, among which there are more than ten innate Dao seeds.

That is to say, my children are not ranked in the entire next generation. If we must talk about talent, Mi Shaohua is estimated to be ranked in the top ten.

But this is only my father's line. My father has two younger brothers, the so-called second uncle and third uncle. They also have more than ten children and their grandchildren are fifty or sixty. It is even more difficult to talk about it.

This does not include the children of more distant branches.

In the final analysis, heroes are judged by their talent and progress.

If you want to get special treatment from the clan and want to get special resources support from the clan, then you have to prove yourself. The so-called legitimate sons and daughters can only provide you with some help in the starting stage. Once you fall behind at a certain stage, the resources you get will naturally be reduced.

As the three great families in Xijing, including the Mi family, are declining, the Dacheng Sect has become the undisputed helmsman in Luoyi City. The three great families now have to rely on the Dacheng Sect to survive, and more benefits and resources are seized by the Dacheng Sect. The resources of the Mi family are also getting worse and worse, so the resources of the children of the family will also be affected.

Although the children of the Mi family must have much more resources than ordinary small sects, small families or casual cultivators, compared with the Mi family twenty or even fifty years ago, it has been reduced a lot, and this comparison also makes people feel very uncomfortable.

Because of this, Mi Shaohua has to consider the long-term.

Maybe thirty or fifty years later, the Mi family will have a chance to usher in a revival, but that has nothing to do with himself and his descendants. What he needs now is enough resources and spirit stones to ensure the favorable treatment of himself and his descendants. He needs more spirit stones to provide spiritual materials for his children to ensure that they can make faster progress in cultivation during the initial stage of Qi Refining.     The last time the map and intelligence of Hualin Garden were provided, Mi Shaohua made a lot of money, and also made Mi Shaohua very satisfied with Chen Huaisheng's keeping his promise, and his trust was greatly improved.

You must know that under the circumstances at that time, if Chen Huaisheng did not give it, or lied about the situation casually, his income would be greatly reduced, but Chen Huaisheng did not do so, but paid his part of the income truthfully.

So this time when Chen Huaisheng proposed the demand for the skills and sutras, Mi Shaohua did not make any excuses and went straight home to do his best to help Chen Huaisheng.

These skills and techniques were also selected by Mi Shaohua from the clan's scripture collection, as many as possible. The only one who could make Mi Shaohua achieve this step was Chen Huaisheng, and he knew that Chen Huaisheng would not treat him badly.

Chen Huaisheng's attention was quickly attracted by the skills and techniques brought by Mi Shaohua.

Among the more than 30 books, he roughly flipped through them and found that there were 13 books related to the practice of the four images, including five books on strengthening bones, three books on opening meridians, two books on strengthening marrow, and three books on nourishing roots.

Chen Huaisheng had no way of judging whether these books were suitable for him after a hasty reading, but he felt that some of the mysteries in several books were still inspiring to him. In any case, he could gain a lot by thinking about them carefully after taking them back.

"The most important books are "Xuanmu Changsheng Jing", "Lian Shen Ning Sui Fa" and "Yunhe Guiyuan Xi Gu Shu". In addition, "Yuan Ding Gu Shen Fa" and "Qingyang Zhuang Gen Shu" are also quite insightful. My dear brother, you may wish to take a good look at them..." Mi Shaohua reminded: "If you memorize them, it is best to destroy the manuscripts..."

Chen Huaisheng also understood Mi Shaohua's concerns. These sutras and techniques were all learned by the ancestors of the Mi family after thousands of trials and tribulations, and then handwritten and annotated. Once they were leaked, Mi Shaohua would definitely be in trouble.

But he thought it was nothing. The key points of the techniques in the cultivation world are similar, and there are more understandings of the Dao. There are more than tens of millions of spiritual practitioners over the past thousands of years, and the understanding of the meaning of the Dao is also flourishing. It is normal to have similarities.

If you say you copied or stole the doctrine of a certain sect, no one will believe it, because you don't know whether what you got is suitable for you. Maybe others can reach the sky and cultivate to the Tao with this scripture, but you may be possessed by the devil and die.

So it is extremely rare to steal the scriptures of other sects, and the sects do not prohibit the sale of some scriptures in the study and bookstore. On the contrary, some people hope to spread their own scriptures more widely, and it is best to see what they can expand and break through. It is equivalent to using others to try.

In the final analysis, the master leads the way, and the practice depends on the individual. On the road of practice, it is more about combining one's own understanding with one's own endowment. Even the master can only play a leading role.

But for Chen Huaisheng, the situation is different.

Because of his own special experience, his physical endowment is completely different from others. The appearance of the cauldron and the inner sense of his consciousness make him have an extraordinary understanding of his endowment. He knows the advantages and disadvantages of his roots, bones, meridians, and marrow, and knows what he needs to improve in which aspects, and even has a path to do these. So what he lacks most now is the specific sutras that can improve his shortcomings.

It is not that you can improve your shortcomings and strengths just by knowing what your shortcomings are. Whether it is spiritual roots or Taoist bones, or meridians and blood marrow, you need specific sutras to cultivate in a targeted way to grow, strengthen, relax, and thicken. You also need various spiritual plants and spiritual materials with different properties to cooperate with nourishment to do it the fastest.

Chen Huaisheng sorted out some of the sutras in the Chonghua School early, but he found that there are more traditional basic practice sutras in the Chonghua School.

In other words, the Chonghua School focuses more on the conventional traditional practice chapter sequence from the beginning, and there are few special sutras for specific, individual, specific period, and special endowment practice.

This is also a common problem of small and medium-sized sects, that is, they focus on consolidating the foundation and at the same time pay attention to the balanced development of the overall practice level. For talents with special talents, they are more likely to achieve improvement through special individual guidance, so there are very few such practice methods preserved in the form of text documents.

The situation of super sects or large aristocratic families is different. They have a long history, and a group of extremely talented and amazing people will emerge in the sect every few dozen or hundreds of years, so they have more experience in cultivating and training such talents.

And these people will also write relevant methods and scriptures for their own situations in a targeted manner during their self-growth process. This has been passed down from generation to generation, and naturally there are a lot of them in thousands of years.

What Chen Huaisheng needs is these things. He can quickly browse through them and choose the ones that are suitable for him. He can even use his spiritual consciousness to explore the roots, bones, and marrow of the people around him, and then find one or two suitable methods for them.
