This was Zhao country, a white area on the map. The Dao tablet was also very ordinary. It was the Dao of Spring Rain, so the cultivation power in the country was not strong.
He walked forward at a steady pace. He looked at the scenery, the people, and the styles. Through this method, he could understand what he was doing!
A month later, he walked slower and slower because some things gradually became clearer and some ideas became firmer.
He passed by a small town by the mountain and found a small tavern. He ordered a pot of local aged wine and a plate of salted peanuts. He drank alone under the setting sun.
The wine was strange. It was not that there was anything wrong with it, but the taste was strange. It should be a combination of some kind of medicinal wine. There was a medicinal fragrance in the spiciness. When he drank it, he did not feel it at first, but the aftertaste lingered. It was as if there was heat seeping into his internal organs. It was especially comfortable in the winter.
Of course, this level of medicinal power was insignificant to him, but it was still quite extraordinary to be able to induce heat in cultivators using mortal wine.
"What exactly is in this wine? I feel that it is different from the others. "
The tavern owner looked at him warily. "It is a thousand-year-old recipe. Forgive me for not revealing it! If you like it, you can have a few more cups. It will give you extra strength when you travel. Don't worry, the wine will not go to your head! "
Lou Xiaoyi smiled. "Sorry, I have no intention of prying into your tavern's secret recipe. I just feel that although this wine is good, it is spicy when it goes down the throat and the taste is not good. I see that your business is average. Why don't you make some changes to your winemaking skills? Or you can add some mild medicine to neutralize it. I think this wine will sell better? "
The tavern owner let down his guard. "You seem to like wine! But you don't know that my wine recipe has been passed down for thousands of years. Countless generations have tried it. Some have succeeded, and some have failed. In the end, I still returned to the old ways of my predecessors!
There is no other reason. When drinking wine, you have to look at its audience! In big cities, rich families, high officials, and scholars, of course, this wine is not good enough. Not to mention selling it, no one even wants to make it into slop.
But here, the mountain roads are rugged and the climate is gloomy and cold. Most of the people who come here to drink wine are peddlers, woodcutters, and hunters. What they care about is not the taste, but whether the aftereffects last long, whether the medicinal effects last long, whether it can withstand the cold of the deep mountains, whether it can promote the growth of the Yang energy, then it is a good wine!
Therefore, the key was not whether the wine was good or not, but whether it was suitable for different people!
If the customers feel that it's a little spicy, if I really change it to Mianhe, my old customers won't come anymore! "
Lou Xiaoyi couldn't help but laugh. "Give me another pot so that we can hurry through the night!"
The tavern owner's words were actually very simple logic. As a cultivator, and a Yuanying Grand Cultivator at that, it was impossible for him to not understand. However, in a person's life, there were many things that even if you understood, you might not be able to react to when you actually encountered them.
Suitability was the best. It sounded simple, but it was actually very difficult to achieve! This was also the reason why Lou Xiaoyi walked slower and slower, and finally stopped at this small tavern to drink wine and watch the sunset.
He was beginning to realize this problem!
Heading straight for the nameless sword dao stele, was that what he really needed? Did he need a place like this to raise his cultivation level? Even if this was a legacy left behind by a sword immortal?
Before a sword immortal became a sword immortal, where did his legacy come from? Did he learn it from someone else? If he learned it from someone else, how could he be so immoral?!
The path of a sword immortal might not be his path! What was suitable for him might be something else? Sword Saint or Sword God? Or Sword Soldier?
Could one become a sword immortal just by learning from a sword immortal? This was the most laughable idea! Looking up at the thirty-six heavens, which one completely learned from someone else before walking up there?
People in different environments should drink different wine! People in different eras, people with different personalities should have a sword that belonged to them!
He had already paved a path that belonged to him on the path of swordsmanship in close to a thousand years of cultivation. There was no reason for him to change himself when the framework of the system was more or less set!
The achievements of a sword immortal were, of course, beyond his reach at the moment, but who knew if he would reach such heights in the future?
Would he become a sword immortal? Or would he become a Sword Soldier that silently cultivated his own path of swordsmanship?
This thought had been tormenting him. The most suitable was the best. It was such a simple principle, but when it was finally placed in front of him, the choice was still incomparably difficult!
That was a sword immortal! That was the highest achievement of a Swordsman since the beginning of this era! What did it mean?! Even if the latecomers could not reach such heights, it seemed acceptable to be slightly inferior? Golden Immortal? True Immortal? Human Immortal?
To say no to authority, one needed great courage and incomparable confidence! Were you sure that your own path of swordsmanship could reach such heights?
Under such pressure, even someone as resolute as Lou Xiaoyi began to hesitate. He was also caught in a dilemma on which choice to make!
But this hesitation slowly became clear during the journey. This was the benefit of relaxing his mind. It calmed his boiling hot mind and calmed his surging blood.
When he heard the tavern owner's words, it was not that the knowledge of this mortal had truly influenced him, but that his thoughts had already taken ninety-nine steps. He only needed the final hammer to make the final decision!
The tavern owner had helped him swing the hammer! Lou Xiaoyi drank a mouthful of wine with satisfaction. Yes, in the future, he could write another thick stroke in his biography: Lou Zu was enlightened by a mortal in a certain small town on a certain date. From then on, he began his unique path of swordsmanship!
Very Cultivation! Very mainstream! It was in line with all the preaching of Daoism!
In fact, how could a mortal decide the thoughts of a cultivator? The reason for this was because the cultivator had already considered this for a long time. In the end, in order to be similar to the novels, they had deliberately arranged it.
Cultivators also need to talk about stories!
He would not go to the Nameless Sword Path Monument! After making this decision, Lou Xiaoyi felt much more relaxed!
This was not a permanent decision! It was only temporary! When he became a Perfected Lord and his path of swordsmanship was completely fixed, he would of course go. However, he would not have the attitude of a primary school student who worshipped him. Instead, he would compare, challenge, and learn from the competition!
He could not do it now because he was still a small seedling in front of a sword immortal's path of swordsmanship! It was not that he did not have confidence in himself, but the huge gap was there. It was not that he could not be influenced just because he did not want to!
There were some influences that were imperceptible! Silently, they would change his original path without him noticing!
This was exactly what he wanted to avoid!
He was the Nascent Soul, but he was also the Sword! This was his true self!
He finally thought it through. This opened his mind and he drank a few more pots. He also filled a few jars with the tavern owner's hidden wine as a memento!
Once the tavern owner was happy, he catered to his tastes. "Customer, are there any specific steps for the change you mentioned? You are right. Accepting all rivers into the sea and learning from others is the way of our tavern! "
Lou Xiaoyi's mood instantly changed. He really wanted to smash the wine jar at this blind tavern owner!
The Great Dao, the Great Dao, the Great Dao of boasting!
It made sense no matter what he said!
