On the Importance of Chinese Characters

"Brother Qiling? Brother Qiling!" Zhuang Yunzhou looked around anxiously, calling Fang Qiling's name, but no one responded, and he seemed to be alone on the stone steps from beginning to end. opened the mountain gate, pursed his lips, and ran towards the summit.

Fang Qiling looked at the platform standing under his feet in a daze. Didn't he just step up a step?Why did you return it to yourself?Still not letting go?Where did Yunzhou go?No, if you don't let me go, why did you confiscate my Yunzhou?

"..." Seeing the bewildered behavior of the two, Meng Changwei looked at Master Yangming and asked, "Yangming, didn't you tell them what the purpose of reciting the stone steps is?"

"Forgot." Yangming casually took a bite of the sweet potato, "It's the same anyway, so you don't have to leave or something?"

"Oh." Jing Bo sneered, and Yang Ming, who was full of sarcasm, almost jumped up and started to fight. Dai Zhongqin quickly pushed him down, "Calm down. It's your fault, let's go." "Seeing the source order" is uncomfortable, if you don't notify in advance, Xu's test will be inaccurate. It's not that you don't know the situation of Jingbo! If you do bad things with good intentions, it's you."

Seeing that the elder sisters were not on his side, Yangming glanced coldly at Bo, refusing to explain that he forgot about it because he was eager to offer treasures, and said stiffly: "If these two people are so stupid, they will be kicked out of the palace." just go."

"That's a good relationship," Yan Yushu's eyes lit up, encouraging him, "Hurry up and get out!"

"So that you can pick it up again?" Xia Hongyu had always been close to Yan Yushu, and couldn't help teasing him. Yan Yushu laughed, somewhat teasing his junior brother.Yangming rolled his eyes, and a fruit beside him disappeared and appeared in Yan Yushu's mouth in an instant, holding his smile in his throat: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother respects you for a fruit to eat."

Yan Yushu spit out the fruit, stretched out his index finger and nodded him fiercely in the air: "Xiao Yangming, I still don't suffer from it."

"Knowing that you still hired him." Xia Hongyu laughed at him, and brought the topic back, "The second inspection of the sea level is the size of the innate sea knowledge square, and the size of the innate sea knowledge square determines the sea of ​​knowledge square every time the wall is broken How much is the increase, from the first grade to the ninth grade, if I remember correctly, the stone steps at this stage are only ninety steps at most? The young man who said he was going to be Jingbo's apprentice, the Consciousness Sea Square has been broken, but it is saved This step is over. It’s just that there is no Sea of ​​Consciousness Square, and it will be a pain when we go to the third step of the God of Appearance.”

"It's okay, my apprentice got a ray of source mother energy earlier, which glued his Sea of ​​Consciousness Square together." Yangming curled his lips into a smile.

Jing Bo stared at Fang Qiling for a moment, then moved to Yangming's face, and narrowed his eyes slightly.Yangming changed his sitting position, put one arm on the propped leg, and smiled inexplicably: "Without the Sea of ​​Consciousness Plaza, the feeling of divine consciousness raging in the sea of ​​consciousness, Junior Brother Jingbo should be the most clear, you may not Take him as an apprentice, why would I bother to be this villain?"

Jing Bo met his eyes, and Yang Ming's eyes seemed to be full of evil spirits.Turning his head calmly, Jing Bo responded indifferently: "What brother said is true." Ignore him again, and return his attention to the scene below.

Meng Changwei was listening on the sidelines, not daring to get involved in the affairs of these two juniors, but looking at Fang Qiling who was frowning and thinking, he couldn't help feeling a little pitiful.

Fang Qiling looked at the stone platform under his feet, then raised his head to look at the frost-white mulberry trees on both sides of the stone steps, and suddenly felt something was wrong: "This doesn't seem to be the platform just now." Covering his lips with one hand, he recalled it carefully, and suddenly Yi Gulu lay down on the ground, this is the position where he was lying and resting on the stone platform just now, from this angle - indeed it is not the same platform.He got up, clapped his hands and smiled: "It's really not that easy to enter Baopu Palace. No matter what, you can see Yunzhou as long as you go in." Looking at the stone steps in front of him, he raised his foot and stepped up.

When both feet were standing on the third step, Fang Qiling frowned suddenly. He felt that there seemed to be some changes in the sea of ​​consciousness. He closed his eyes and sank into the sea of ​​consciousness. , even the surface has become pitted, like a broken mirror glued together by inferior glue.Fang Qiling stood on the broken square, wandered around, and finally found a trace of gray mist in the corner. The mist was only a very thin layer, and it was almost invisible if you didn't observe carefully.

Exiting the Sea of ​​Consciousness, Fang Qiling ran without hesitation while paying close attention to the situation in the Sea of ​​Consciousness Square. Sure enough, the more stone steps he walked, the thicker the gray fog became, and at the same time, a heavy feeling Unexpectedly, it was transmitted from the divine sense, and the movement of the divine sense, which has always been light and free in the Sea of ​​Consciousness Square, actually became a little sluggish, as if something heavy was on his body, and Fang Qiling felt his head began to feel heavy due to the pressure. His fast running speed As time passed, it slowed down, and the gray mist in the sea of ​​consciousness became thicker and thicker, making it difficult to move the divine mind.

Now Fang Qiling only feels that there is a weight that grows tied to his spiritual consciousness. Every time he takes a step, the weight of the heavy object increases some weight. There was a cracking pain, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his running had stopped long ago, he changed from running to walking, then from walking to moving, and in the end, almost every step he took, he had to stay for a long time.Despite this, his back was always straight. Although he didn't know why the stone steps were like this, he felt that the longer he persisted, the better. Therefore, even if the pain in his mind was overwhelming, it was like someone holding a blunt knife. It was so uncomfortable to cut the meat one by one, and he never thought of giving up.The feet trembling as he stepped up the steps, Fang Qiling gritted his teeth, shouted loudly, and stood up another step.

"This son's spiritual consciousness is so solid, which is rare at this age." Xia Hongyu was moved. He turned his head to look at Jingbo. Lai Jingbo cared about this child.This young man not only has a solid mind, but the most important thing is his will, as well as his ruthlessness towards himself, he should indeed be Jing Bo's apprentice.

"Yangming, what's that child's name?" Yan Yushu, who had been silently looking at Zhuang Yunzhou, watched the child step up the No.90 step to the third step of Zhao Nian, and the shock in his heart could not be explained.

"Zhuang Yunzhou." Yang Ming said his apprentice's name with a straight face, and was also surprised by his own apprentice.Although he had investigated Zhuang Yunzhou's Sea of ​​Consciousness that day, he also found that the other party's Sea of ​​Consciousness Square was huge, but he didn't care much, just because in Zhuang Yunzhou, a talented Spirit Race member of his age had broken through the wall several times, and having such a big Sea of ​​Consciousness Square was not enough. strange.But now, seeing the ninth grade of the sea rank and the ninth rank of the innate, Yang Ming wanted to ask, apprentice, have you ever broken through the wall?

Yan Yushu responded, put away the banter he had been playing all along, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Yangming came to his senses at this moment, he stared at the other party vigilantly: "Brother, don't think about it."

"Brother, I didn't think about anything." Yan Yushu stroked his beard calmly.

It's strange to believe you, Yang Ming curled his lips secretly, and simply said clearly: "He has Xu Hai. Today's walk is not the sixth step, but the seventh step."

"What?" Yan Yushu grabbed her beard and hissed in pain.

Seeing the fourth senior brother, Meng Changwei said in surprise: "Senior brother Yu Shu, you really want to grab your apprentice? You never thought that you can let Yangming bring back in advance to say that you want to take an apprentice, then it is [-]% sure. There is Xu Hai." This sentence almost didn't add the sentence 'Are you stupid? '.

……

Yan Yushu really forgot about this. You Xuhai is a prerequisite for becoming a rubbing master. Yangming himself is a rubbing master, and he has issued Baopu stone cards. Xuhai?No wonder seeing such uncut jade, the other peak masters were so calm, it turned out that they guessed that they had nothing to do in the morning.

You are stupid!Yan Yushu cursed in her heart, and was as quiet as a chicken ever since.

Yangming solved a competitor and was in a very good mood.

Zhuang Yunzhou wiped the sweat from his forehead, rubbed his head that was still tingling, and exhaled lightly. The stone steps just now were so weird that they directly affected his divine sense. It took two hours to set foot on the platform. Seeing the mountain gate that was finally getting closer, Zhuang Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief and embarked on the journey again.

But at this time, in Baopu Palace, the news that someone was walking the Zhaonian stone steps outside the mountain gate had spread all over the place.

"What's so strange about someone walking on the stone steps? Are there still not many people from the same sect who took the mission every year?" Many people didn't care.

"Oh, you don't know, it's different this time, these two people were brought back by Master Yangming!" The person who broke the news lowered his voice, "I have a distant relative who waits beside Peak Master Hou, and Peak Master Hou Please talk to Peak Master Yu, during the conversation, Peak Master Hou picked up a sound transmission stone and unintentionally told Peak Master Yu that those two people are apprentices of Master Yangming."

"Is it true? Didn't it mean that after three months, only those who hold the Pushi card can enter the palace for selection? The teacher will accept the apprentice now?"

"Really, many peak masters are watching the ceremony in the main palace now. I heard that their talents are really outstanding!"

"Tell me, does Yu Xinyu know about this? She has been keeping an eye on the position of Master Yangming's first disciple."

"Then who knows? If you have been stubbornly refusing to ask others to be your teacher, you have the potential to become a rubbing master, and your talent is superb. It's useless if you don't accept Yang Ming's teacher."

"Extraordinary talent? She doesn't count, does she? I heard that the two people have walked the stone steps of Zhaonian for nine hours and haven't finished yet!"

"Nine hours?!"

"Yangming, your luck is really good." Dai Zhongqin stared at the two people who stepped on the last platform of the mountain gate one after another, suppressed the huge waves in his heart, and said slowly, "Zhuang Yunzhou, the submerged step that tests the potential of the innate sea consciousness, five One hour; to test the size of the Xianhai Consciousness Sea Square, a total of [-] steps, the innate ninth grade; to test the spiritual consciousness aptitude, two hours; to test the potential source of the affinity of heaven and earth, three One hour; the Jianyuan level, which tests the meridian qualification, one hour; the current source level, which tests the source force qualification, one hour; and finally the Xuhai level, which tests the Xuhai qualification, four hours! It took a total of sixteen hours."

"As for Fang Qiling, five hours for diving into the sea; five hours for seeing the sea, the sea of ​​consciousness has been broken, so I won't mention it for now; three hours for the present god stage; four hours for the potential source stage; Two and a half hours! A total of sixteen and a half hours!"

In the main palace, the palace lords who came after hearing the news looked at each other, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes. With such talents, there was a situation where one was scrambling for the other. Now when Baopu Palace came, there were two of them!Although it is a pity that Fang Qi's sea of ​​spiritual consciousness is broken, it is a pity that he has the potential of spiritual consciousness, but with Junior Brother Jing Bo, who can say well about his future development?

Of these two people, one is good at spiritual thoughts, and can be a rubbing master, who will be admired by all directions;

"Jing Bo, what do you think?" The old palace lord sat in the main seat and asked Jing Bo who had been silent all this time with a smile.

Jing Bo stood up, walked in front of Yangming, and slowly saluted: "Thank you, brother Jing Bo."

Yangming raised the corner of his mouth, then pressed it down again: "Remember, you owe me once."

"Let the seniors order."
