In the quiet room of Qingyang Temple.
Ouyang Shuo and Ge Daozhang sat cross-legged facing each other. There was a small tea table between them, and Ge Daozhang was making tea. As for Bing 'er, she was playing with the Taoist children in the temple.
Ge Daozhang handed a cup of tea to Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo took it, took a sip, and praised, "Good tea!" The tea was Baihao Tea that Ouyang Shuo asked someone to send. The water used to make the tea was Ge Daozhang's secret recipe. Therefore, the tea had a special charm.
Ge Yan smiled without saying anything. He stared at Ouyang Shuo and said, "Your Excellency, did you have an encounter recently? From your body, this humble Daoist can sense a trace of the aura that belongs to my Taoism. "
Ouyang Shuo was shocked. This Ge Yan was really not simple. He could actually feel the inner qi of Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch in his body. During this time, he had been practicing diligently and had already reached the second level.
The second level of Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch increased the upper limit of his inner force to 1000 points. However, Ouyang Shuo could only run the Circulatory Cycle five times a day. In other words, according to this speed, he needed 180 days, which was half a year, to reach the third level.
Such a slow cultivation speed couldn't help but cause Ouyang Shuo to feel anxious, and he was wondering if his method of cultivation was wrong. It should be known that Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch had 12 levels. According to this speed, even if he practiced for 10 years, he might not be able to reach the top level.
Ge Yan was a Taoist. Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch could also be classified as a Taoist. Did he have some method? Ouyang Shuo's heart moved. Perhaps, his opportunity was in front of him.
Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to be negligent. He said sincerely, "To tell you the truth, some time ago, I was fortunate to obtain Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch. After practicing for a period of time, I found that my practice speed was unusually slow. Please give me some advice. "
Ge Yan suddenly understood and said with a smile, "Your Excellency is very fortunate. Inner Canon of the Yellow Thearch is one of the top Taoist classics. Your Excellency did not enter the Taoist gate and did not read the Taoist scripture. It was naturally difficult to practice. "
Ouyang Shuo nodded. So that was it.
Ouyang Shuo stood up and bowed to Daoist Ge, "Please accept me as your disciple, Daoist Ge."
Ge Daozhang turned sideways and accepted it. He invited Ouyang Shuo to sit down again and said, "Daren is a noble lord, a first-class count. Your status is honorable and you are destined to enjoy the riches and honor of the mortal world. This humble Daoist does not dare to accept you as a disciple."
Ouyang Shuo was a little anxious and was about to stand up and bow again.
Ge Daozhang stopped him. "Milord, there's no need to rush. Although I can't accept you into the Dao Sect, I can teach you the Dao Scripture. After you return, as long as you study the 'Dao Scripture' yourself, you will definitely gain something. "
Ouyang Shuo calmed down. It was good that there was a way.
The two of them sat down again, and Ge Daozhang began to teach Ouyang Shuo the Dao Scripture.
The lecture went on for two hours. Finally, the sound of the system notification resounded in Ouyang Shuo's ears.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player 'Don't Say You Don't Have Clothes' for receiving guidance from the Head of Qingyang Monastery, Ge Daozhang. You have comprehended the" Dao Scripture ", experienced the Heavenly Dao, and comprehended the method of cultivation. As for the specific content, please explore it yourself."
What the system said was specious, and Ouyang Shuo did not know what effect it had. He could only find out after he returned and studied the 'Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor'.
Near noon, Ouyang Shuo and Bing'er ate at the Qingyang Temple and left. Before leaving, Daoist Ge gave Ouyang Shuo a copy of the 'Dao Scripture' for him to study.
On the way, Bing'er sat on the horse and asked curiously, "Brother, what were you talking about with that Uncle Daoist in the quiet room this morning? You talked for so long that Bing'er was bored."
What a curious little girl. Ouyang Shuo smiled and said, "We were talking about the path of cultivation."
"What is cultivation?"
"Cultivation is when adults go to school." Ouyang Shuo could only explain it this way.
"Oh, so brother was in class." Hearing this, Bing'er lost interest.
Back at the Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo asked Bing'er to find Zisu and let Zisu play with her. He returned to his room and began to practice the 'Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor'.
After one cycle, Ouyang Shuo was delighted.
It turned out that he could increase his internal energy by four points with one cycle. In other words, he could increase his cultivation speed by four times. Ouyang Shuo did not dare to slack off and continued to cultivate.
After the fifth cycle, he felt a swelling pain in his meridians and had to stop. It seemed that Daoist Ge's guidance only improved the quality of his internal energy and did not increase the number of cycles.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo was very satisfied. After all, it used to take him half a year to reach the third level, but now he only needed one and a half months to complete it. As long as he continued to study the 'Dao Scripture', he would definitely be able to increase his cultivation speed again and his future would be bright.
After the cultivation ended, it was already four o 'clock in the afternoon.
Ouyang Shuo walked out of his room and returned to the front yard to deal with today's government affairs.
…
On the 13th of June, Lingxi Town was successfully promoted and became the fifth first-class county in China.
Two days later, the population of Shanhai County reached 20000.
Ouyang Shuo walked into the meeting hall and muttered the words' Territory Promotion '. A white light flashed and in the middle of the meeting hall, a golden stone tablet slowly rose from the ground. He pressed his right hand on the front of the stone tablet and the System Notification sounded.
"System Notification: Checking the requirements for Shanhai County's promotion …
"Requirement 1: The population has reached 20000, the maximum population limit. Requirements met!
"Requirement 2: The construction of all basic buildings has been completed. Requirements met!
"Requirement 3: The Territorial Lord must be at least a Second-Class Earl. Requirements met!
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Who Says Nothing for establishing Shanhai County. All the promotion requirements have been met. Do you want to upgrade?
"Upgrade!"
On the stone tablet, a golden light shot up into the sky and exploded in the air, turning into a golden halo that spread in all directions. The halo extended to the new edge of the territory and disappeared again.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Who Says Nothing for becoming the first Territorial Lord to be promoted to a second-class county in China. Achievement Points rewarded: 2,200!
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Who Says Nothing for becoming the first Territorial Lord to be promoted to a second-class county in China. Achievement Points rewarded: 2,200!
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Who Says Nothing for becoming the first Territorial Lord to be promoted to a second-class county in China. Achievement Points rewarded: 2,200!
Shanhai County was once again one step ahead, becoming the only second-class county in China.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Who Says Nothing for becoming a second-class county. Three basic buildings of a second-class county will be randomly selected. Player may choose one of them."
"System Notification: Three buildings have been randomly selected. They are the Opera Building, the Mountain Altar, and the Crop Altar. Please choose!"
"I choose the Opera Building!"
"System Notification: The building is being automatically generated. Please check for yourself!"
