Aspiring to the Immortal Path

v1 Chapter 40: Selection (top)

After a rain at the end of autumn, the weather suddenly became cold.

The night began to grow long, and the sun was no longer as bright as before.

Winter is the most leisure time for gardeners. When everything is dying, Tang Jie has more free time.

Guan Shi suddenly arrived today, and the two of them drank a little wine at the table, chatting casually, drinking and drinking, and there were snowflakes floating in the sky.

Tang Jie opened the window, and a gust of wind sent snow into the house. Snow flakes fell on Tang Jie's shoulders, in the palm of his hand, and gradually melted into the invisible.

"Another year has passed." Tang Jie said softly.

Sentimental for no reason.

"Yeah, it's another day with heavy snow, which reminds me of the heavy snow more than 20 years ago." Qin Guan also looked at the snowflakes outside the window and said leisurely: "If there were no two elders from the Wu family, there would be no me, Qin Yuan. Today...I have to add you now."

Tang Jie just smiled.

"By the way, have you visited them these few days?" Manager Qin asked.

"Well, I just visited yesterday. The second elder is in good health, but he misses his son a little, but he is not in good spirits. It is useless to persuade me."

Manager Qin frowned at hearing: "Wu Xing is too shameless. After going to the college for so long, it took almost a year to write a letter. Even the young master writes more frequently than him."

"That's it, I'm asking for money for a letter." Tang Jie said with a smile.

Manager Qin didn't think he was speaking directly, so he glared at him, but thinking about Tang Jie's right, he laughed.

After a sip of old wine, the warmth coming out of his body dispelled the cold, and Guan Shi Qin suddenly said, "Young Master is about to open the door."

"En?" Tang Jie was shocked: "When?"

"Only these two days." Guanshi Qin replied, "I will start school next year, and now it is time to open the door to wash my pulse. It is time to stop."

Since the process of opening the Yumen Gate is relatively painful, the major families generally do not require the children of enrollment to open the door too early, and try their best to open the door after they are mature. Those who opened the door early, like Xu Muyang, were either not talented or otherwise beaten more often, and their anti-pain ability was exercised.

After the new year, the young master will be enrolled. Now is the best time to open the door, and if the young master wants to open the door, the servants will naturally be fast too.

Sure enough, then Guanshi Qin said, "Your business is about to be settled. In the past few days, all kinds of ghosts and snakes have been circling around your wife, showing great diligence, hoping to seize the opportunity."

"Oh." Tang Jie just said oh.

"Are you not in a hurry?" Guanshi Qin was surprised.

"If it's useful in anxiousness, I must be anxious, eager to rush, burn my eyebrows and be eager to show you Uncle Qin." Tang Jie said with a smile.

"...Smelly boy, you are so mean, you are so confident that you can make it?" Qin Yuan also laughed.

"It's not self-confidence, but I feel that everything that deserves to be contested has already been contested. At this point, it is no longer the time to continue the contest. You only need to wait quietly." Tang Jie replied.

For Tang Jie, the result of the servant study is like a graduation exam for the students. It is basically done during the study, not relying on the cuddling before the exam.

As for the old lady of Weifu, they should have already made up their minds at this time. Therefore, the real result is doomed long before the last moment arrives.

"That said, after all, you can only do it with a calm mind. I really didn't expect that this old man of mine might not be as firm as you." Guan Shi Qin shook his head.

"That's Uncle Qin who cares about the kid, how careless like me." Tang Jie said with a smile.

"You're just sweet!" Guan Shi snorted angrily, and stood up: "Okay, everything that should be notified is also notified, old man, I have to do what I should do...you are not in a hurry, I'm always worried about what I have, and I have to run for you again and ask."

"Uncle Qin bothered." Tang Jie bowed to Guan Shi Qin.

After sending Guanshi Qin out and returning to the house, Tang Jie glanced at the table, and the small white flower in the flowerpot had transformed into Yiyi.

"Dad! I want to hide and seek!" Yi Yi cried and picked it up on Tang Jie's shoulders, grabbing his ears and giggling.

"I have said so many times, I want to call my brother!" Tang Jie twisted Yi Yi's little face: "Also, I am too big, I can't drill your hole..."

Well, why does this sound so unpleasant?

"Use phantom array, use phantom array!" The little guy clapped his hands and shouted, and raised his hand, a phantom array had appeared in the room.

Unlike Tang Jie, this little thing's illusion formation didn't even use cloth, so she raised her hand and came, to put it bluntly, the illusion formation was not a formation, but a spell.

This is also the game she plays with Tang Jie most often since she can talk.

"Next time, brother will be busy these two days, you are good, don't run around."

Xiao Yiyi's face drooped immediately and shouted at Tang Jie: "Hate!"

Turning around, he changed back to the flower and returned to the flower pot, ignoring Tang Jie.

Tang Jie smiled and shook his head, and sat back at the table.

Opening the drawer, Tang Jie took out a letter from the drawer.

Looking at the graceful handwriting on the letter, a smile appeared in Tang Jie's eyes.

————————————

The day of the examination room has finally arrived.

On this day, the servants of Jingxinyuan gathered in front of the wife's hall, waiting for the fate to come.

Before that, first the young master opened the door.

Perhaps it is because you don't want to lose face in front of people, the young master's opening of the door was not shown in front of people, but in the hut behind the hall.

Despite this, the screams from afar, like a slaying pig, still make everyone hear clearly. The roar is so thrilling, and occasionally it is mixed with the concerned cry of the wife: "Don't shout, hold your breath, use force! I You must hold on to it, it's opened... it's already opened, you can do it..."

How do you sound like giving birth to a child in a delivery room.

A faint smile appeared on Tang Jie's face.

This smile was seen by the other young servants, who mistakenly thought he was full-fledged. Shi Mo gave him a fierce look and made a few mouth shapes. Tang Jie could see clearly, it was "Don't think you just It's a win."

He chuckled, but did not respond.

The screams gradually lowered, and Tang Jie knew that the rush to the door was about to be completed.

After a while, the spiritual master Lu accompanied the old man and his wife, and said as he walked: "Congratulations, master, congratulations, madam, the door is open four times, the young master's talent is still good."

The talent is good, but the will is too low.

Tang Jie said secretly in his heart, even with Wei Tianchong’s earth-shattering cry, he could imagine that he could not really use all of his talents, otherwise at least the door was opened for five turns, and if he was stronger, he would also have six turns. possible.

"Finally, it is also a middle-grade qualification, much better than Tianzhi...Unfortunately, Wei's men are not as competitive as their daughters after all." Zheng Shufeng automatically ignored the lower-grade characters in the middle-grade and low-grade, but instead was because the Wei's men are not as good as the women. Very sorry.

Her daughter Wei Qinger's door opened six turns, but she was born with seven emotions, which is very suitable for the practice of Qianqingge. The future is the greatest. Wei Qingsong's daughter Weidie's door opened five turns, the future is also bright, but she is the young master. Wei Tianzhi had only two ranks. Although he entered the Xiyue Academy, he made little progress. He is still working hard to enter the Linghai Rank. If his luck is not enough, the Linghai Rank may be the pinnacle of his life.

However, Wei Qingsong's son Wei Mingmen opened three times and pressed Wei Tianzhi's side, which kept Zheng Shufeng upset.

Now the youngest son has opened four turns and entered the middle rank. As long as the resources are sufficient, reaching the peak of the spiritual master is not a problem in theory. As long as there is a good opportunity, it is not impossible to enter the heavenly state of mind.

After all, the family was supported by men. With these four turns of Yumen, Zheng Shufeng was also relieved.

Stepping out at this moment, Zheng Shufeng had already said to the servants below: "The young master opened the door and the door has been opened four times!"

All the servants replied loudly together: "Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the old lady, I hope that the young master will cultivate immortality as soon as possible and brighten the door lintel!"

Zheng Shufeng nodded with satisfaction: "Little Master's business is complete, and it should be you next. I want to come, some of you have been waiting for this day, and have been waiting for a long time."

Hearing this, everyone became nervous.

Tang Jie secretly admired Zheng Shufeng's skill.

The young master Wei Tianchong had just opened Yumen at this time. It was the moment when his vitality was severely injured and he needed a rest. It is estimated that everyone has fainted at this time.

At this time, if he decides to learn, it is impossible for him to interfere.

Although Zheng Shufeng is his mother, it is useless even if he wants to intervene, but one less objection and one less person who refutes his own face is also good-if his choice is opposed by her husband and son at the same time, it is considered to be She will also be difficult to do.

Now that there is one less possible objection, and her husband is not easy to refute himself in family matters, Zheng Shufeng has actually grasped all power in his own hands invisibly.

In this respect, Zheng Shufeng's attitude towards Shimo is more obvious-she will never give her son to Shimo.

At this time, Wei Danbo and Zheng Shufeng had already sat down, and Zheng Shufeng Shi Shiran said: "Since this is the case, I don’t need to say anything extra. Everyone knows how difficult it is to have a place in a moon-washing college. Although the Wei family has a big family, But you can’t just throw it on useless people. After all, it depends on your performance. Now I’ll give you the last chance. Let’s talk about what you want to say, one by one, Shimeng, just Let’s start with you."

Although Zheng Shufeng's words are implicit, his meaning is undoubtedly to make everyone make a devilish wish. Of course, he is too short to say that he always wants the other party to be willing. good.

Shi Meng has already stepped forward and said loudly: "Si Meng has been selling himself to guard the family since he was a small child, and is under the care of his master and wife..."

After talking a lot of grateful nonsense, Shi Meng finally said: "...If you can get the kindness of the master and wife and enter the academy, Shi Meng swears by the demon of the heart, remembers his heart forever, and since then, he will be loyal to the Wei family and belong to the Wei family. Dedicated to serving the Wei family, glorifying the lintel of our Wei family."

Shimeng’s heart demon wish can be regarded as quite satisfactory, speaking of allegiance, affiliation, and service. To put it bluntly, he will belong to the Wei family in the future, but after becoming a spiritual master, he must have the treatment he should have.

This is also very normal. People fight for their future, after all, to change their lives. If you become an immortal and have to serve as a servant for a lifetime, then who is full and has nothing to do to cultivate an immortal?

"En." Wei Danbo and Zheng Shufeng just nodded after hearing this.

After Shi Meng, it was supposed to be Shi Mo, but Shi Mo lowered his head and did not step forward, but pushed the other boy next to him.

The young man was pushed out by him, but he had no choice but to make a wish on the spot.

He knows he has no chance. In fact, by this time, everyone knows that this is just a cutscene. If there is no accident, then the wife who chooses will only be Shi Meng and Tang Jie, and this is why the young man made a wish so weak. , Listless.

One by one the servants just played until Tang Jie and Shimo were left in the field.

Tang Jie knew that Shimo was going to be the last one on purpose. Therefore, when he made a big wish, no one would follow suit. He chuckled and stepped forward and said: "If you can get the chance to cultivate immortality with the blessing of the Wei family Tang Jie must do his best to serve the young master, and hereby make a wish with the demon of the heart, the young master will not escape from the ordinary, the Tang Jie will not escape the servant, the young master will not escape from the Tianxin, the Tang Jie will not escape. Senfa stays at Eemon!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Danbo and Zheng Shufeng were moved at the same time.

Different from the previous aspirations of the servants, Tang Jie's wish was extremely specific.

The young master does not escape from the ordinary, and Tang Jie does not escape from the servant, which means that if the young master Weitian does not enter the escape from the ordinary realm for a day, he will remain a servant for Tang Jie and will not change his status because of this. And even if the young master enters the realm of escape, as long as he has not entered the state of mind, Tang Jie will not escape, that is, he will always appear as a guardian, of course, he is no longer a servant.

This is a very solemn promise. It not only limits himself, but also expresses that the future return to the young master will include not only the service in life, but also the care in practice. If he is not sure of this, he would not dare to say this. talk.

But at the same time, this is also another statement, that is, if one day the young master Wei Tian rushes into the state of mind, he will officially no longer belong to the Wei family, and will be free again. Of course, as the price of regaining his freedom, he will leave a fairy law for the Wei family to pass on.

Most of the small servants’ wishes are illusory and do not refer to the real thing. This is to give themselves a chance to turn back in the future. In the case of seeking opportunities, no one will say that they will succeed in cultivation in the future, although everyone will inevitably have this. idea.

Tang Jie was probably the first servant of the Wei family to leave in the heart demon wish, but at the same time he also proposed the conditions for leaving the Wei family.

This is what moved Wei Danbo and Zheng Shufeng. The difference is that their performance is completely different.

Wei Danbo snorted, obviously dissatisfied.

Zheng Shufeng showed a smile on his face.

To be able to create an immortal technique, at least it would have to be the state of mind, that is to say, Tang Jie had absolute confidence in himself to say this.

To be honest, this kind of promise is actually far more powerful than the previous servants. It is only because of the intention to leave that makes people dislike it, but for a practical woman like Zheng Shufeng, it is like this. The promise of goals and rewards made her more acceptable.

In any case, to ensure that Wei Tianchong can enter the heavenly state of mind and that the Wei family has the immortal law inheritance, these two points alone are worth all the investment in Tang Jie. From this point, Tang Jie may not be loyal enough, but to The rewards are definitely the most lucrative, at least more affordable than "serving the Weijia"-living in Weijia every day and not doing work is also called service. Isn't that the way the spiritual master of Weijia is now? The number of times they really need to be used is actually very small.

In addition, Tang Jie’s departure is tied to Wei Tianchong, which means that in the days to come, if Tang Jie wants to be free, he must do his best to help Wei Tianchong. From this point of view, he is better than anyone else. A servant is more motivated to take care of Wei Tianchong, because this is also for his own benefit.

In the end, Zheng Shufeng doesn't trust the wishes of her heart, and she prefers to believe in human nature. In her eyes, if there is a real servant who can reach the state of mind in the future, it is not something that a small guard can control. It is better to let him go and make a good bond. And even if the other party is truly free, as long as the relationship is good, it may not help defend the family in the future. Sometimes, feelings are more important than contracts.

Therefore, she really liked Tang Jie's wish.

The couple showed different attitudes towards the same wish. For Shimo, this was an opportunity.

At the next moment, he took a step forward and knelt down in front of Zheng Shufeng and his wife, crying: "Master Meng took care of his wife, and Shimo was able to enter the home, follow the young master to read and write, and live a worry-free life. Such a great kindness. , Shimo can only repay with his body! Shimo knows that he has done a lot of things and made big mistakes, but Shimo now knows that he regrets and is willing to change it. Today I make a great wish here. If the old lady doesn’t dislike it, I can give it again. Serve Mo’s one chance, and Serve Mo will be loyal to the Wei family from now on, and the Wei family will be the master of the whole life. He will be a cow and a horse. There will be no complaints and will never change!"

Big ambition!

Not only the great aspirations, but even the Wei family as the lord of his life, all came out.

Shimo, you are really cruel enough to even not get rid of the cheap books in order to cultivate immortality. It seems that you are desperately pressing on it. Tang Jie sneered in his heart.

He knew Shimo’s plan. As long as he could become a spiritual master in the future, even if he didn’t ask for his status as a servant, Wei Jia couldn’t really use him as a servant, but he would be the lowest among all spiritual masters, even The position of being in charge of Qin is inferior to that!

Hearing Shimo's ambition, Zheng Shufeng and his wife were also obviously stunned.

The two of them looked at the Master Lu Ling who was sitting next to them, only to see the other nodded, which confirmed that the other's wish came from the heart and can be counted.

The heart demon swears, there is no set rules, the key lies in the heart and soul, the role of Ling Master Lu is to confirm whether each servant's heart demon wish is sincere.

Wei Danbo asked in a deep voice, "Shimo, do you know what you are talking about?"

Shimo replied loudly: "The little one knows, what the little one says, every word comes from the bottom of his heart, there is no falsehood!"

"In this case, look at Shufeng..." Wei Danbo groaned and looked at his wife.

Although he had discussed with his wife before to serve both meng and Tang Jie, he couldn't help but become tempted in the face of Shi Mo's great aspirations. At this moment, he hoped his wife would change her mind.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Shufeng slightly shook his head with a gloomy face~lightnovelpub.net~ This action shocked Shimo's heart, and even Wei Danbo was a little dissatisfied: "Shufeng, are you too prejudiced with Shimo? NS?"

Zheng Shufeng snorted, "This is not a prejudice, but an understanding. What is not suitable is that it is not suitable. Even if it is a great aspiration, it is meaningless. I, Zheng Shufeng, don't know how to cultivate immortals, but I know how to live a life, but I have never heard of it. Anyone who is ignorant can grow up after making a wish. In addition, there are thousands of people in Wenxin Country, and I have never heard of anyone who dares to serve as a servant. My little Wei family dare not open it. This is a precedent. Some promises, he dared to give, we dare not accept... I think it’s better to be a man after all. No matter how beautiful the promise is, it’s just a promise. And netting!"

After that, Wei Danbo was speechless. Master Lu smiled and nodded repeatedly, and even Tang Jie was shocked when he sank into an ice cave.

He didn't expect that Zheng Shufeng would be unmoved in the face of Shimo's big wish, which was far beyond his expectation.

Zheng Shufeng said again: "Though Tang Jie has a long-term ambition, it has something to say, not illusory and empty. The Heavenly State of Mind is still a little far away from the Wei family. If one place is exchanged for another Heavenly State of mind, this business can be done greatly. ..."

Wei Danbo also laughed, changing a quota for a heavenly state of mind is naturally a rewarding reward. There are tens of thousands of people who enter Xianxue every year, but on average, they may not be able to get a heavenly state of mind every year. With Tang Jie's promise, it was indeed extremely valuable. Hearing what his wife said was reasonable, he also nodded and said yes.

Shimo yelled: "I'm not convinced! Madam, what is he Tang Jie? Why can he help the young master to enter the heart of heaven? He just said nothing..."

"Just relying on my Yumen Fifth Turn, is it enough?" Tang Jie said leisurely.

Everyone was shocked when he said this.
