After saying this, Ling Fengxiao stopped talking, got up and lay on the bed sideways, and looked at Lin Shu with her head supported on one hand.

There is a beautiful smile in the eldest lady's eyes, and the soft red gauze curtain makes her more beautiful.

Lin Shu thought it looked good, but also felt a little nervous.

Think about it, the eldest lady is the cousin, the cousin is the eldest lady, and the cousin treats me so kindly—it turns out that the eldest lady has always been good to me.

The eldest lady reached out and brushed a strand of hair scattered on his cheek.

Lin Shu felt a little hot on his face.

Just at this moment, the cat who was sleeping together woke up, let out a "meow", and walked between the two of them.

The eldest lady reached out and hugged the cat into her arms, scratched the soft fur behind its ears, and said: "I think it is too fat, and it needs to be fed less in the future."

The cat was still snoring comfortably just now, when it heard the words, it let out a scream, broke away from the eldest lady, and jumped onto Lin Shu.

Lin Shu: "I think so too."

The cat frowned, jumped onto the table, turned its back on them, and made a fuss.

The eldest lady said: "Qingyuan is good, don't get angry."

The cat lay down and ignored them.

The eldest lady laughed, then turned her head and continued to look at Lin Shu.

The tent was warm and fragrant, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of honey. Lin Shu found himself much more relaxed.

"I think, if you are like this every day, it's not a waste of time." The eldest lady said.

Lin Shu didn't know how to answer, so he gave a soft "hmm".

If the other party is a eldest lady, then getting along with others does not seem to be a difficult task.

They talked a little more, and the eldest lady reluctantly got up from the bed, hung up the curtain, tied her hair, and said, "Go to the Xiefengxiyuyuan, so that they don't have to worry about it all the time."

The atrium of the Oblique Wind and Drizzle Garden is brightly lit, and the girls are still awake, gathering in the atrium to read.

Seeing the two of them coming, Ling Baojing said pleasantly, "Miss is well!"

The girls gathered around to take care of them again.

"I can't rest easy if the eldest lady is not awake. I have only read five pages of the book so far." Ling Baochen said.

Lin Shu looked at the books piled up on the table, and suddenly thought of something.

At this time, Ling Baoqing complained again: "Miss, I can't read this 'Historical Examination of Shu Region', I'm afraid I'll get C!"

The eldest lady said: "It's okay."

Lin Shu: "..."

The academy takes exams twice a year, once in June and once in December—now it's mid-November.

It's the end of the term.

end of term.

Lin Shu: "!!!"

His Nanxia customs examination, history of Nanxia, ​​outer alchemy, and preliminary mastery of formations—twenty courses, almost all of which had to be memorized.

The eldest lady seemed to remember something, and looked at Lin Shu: "It's time for us to review our homework."

Lin Shu nodded, feeling frantic and desperate.

——And the crape myrtle spell, which he has never learned!

In addition, you have to accept the assessment of Mr. Meng.

If you don't do well in the course exams, at most you will lose some people, get less jade souls, and postpone your graduation.Mr. Meng failed the examination, but was about to be expelled from the academy.

The eldest lady talked to the girls again before leaving, and asked him on the way: "Is there any homework you don't know?"

Lin Shudao: "I don't understand Ziwei's spells."

The eldest lady said: "I will study with you."

Lin Shu felt happy again.

He can get help from the god of learning.

In the days that followed, the academy was peaceful and there were no accidents.The Dajijiu even came to Jingfengxiyuyuan, and brought a very delicious fish stick to the cat, and promised that the canteen would invite a chef to cook fish in the future, and welcome the mountain guardian.This made Mao realize the fact that he would not be deducted from his rations, and he became more confident when facing Lin Shu and Ling Fengxiao.

The cat is naturally in a good mood, and the Dajijiu seems to be in a good mood too.In other words, there are mountain guards who are in the realm of land gods guarding the Shangling Academy, so what are you afraid of?

——Even if the mountain guard is just a fat cat that wanders around the bamboo houses of Lin Shu and Ling Fengxiao from time to time, eating and drinking.

The cat likes to sleep in the atrium recently, because everyone gathers in the atrium to study.

Lin Shu recited the book, and the brothers and sisters of the Yue family were practicing in the bamboo forest. Most of the courses they took were martial arts, so they didn't have to recite too much, and they were much more relaxed than Lin Shu.

As for the eldest lady, she was extremely busy, reviewing her homework, helping Lin Shu with the crape myrtle spell, disciplining Xiao Lingyang, and abusing her younger brother when Xiao Lingyang was angry with Lin Shu.

But the younger brother was stubborn and unyielding, and continued to sow dissension tirelessly under domestic violence. Every day, he recited in Lin Shu's ear ten times "Ling Fengxiao is not a good thing", ten times "You are just a bad boy", ten times "Ling Fengxiao wants to I will never give up on you."

Lin Shu: "Oh."

Ling Fengxiao: "The History of Southern Xia, copy it ten times."

Xiao Lingyang: "Ling Fengxiao, I advise you not to be arrogant. Although you have confiscated my "Twelve Bad Pleadings for Chen Ling and Evil Thieves", I can write it out silently at any time!"

Ling Fengxiao: "Even if you write the "Pain to Chen Lingfengxiao One Thousand 230 Four Evil Pleadings", Lin Shu is already mine."

Xiao Lingyang: "Since you are not married, everything is still unknown!"

Ling Fengxiao: "Oh."

——This scene was repeated day by day, and the whole November passed in a frenzy.

As soon as December arrives, various courses begin to take exams one after another.

As a god of learning, Ling Fengxiao took a few more courses than normal people and had more exams, so although the two lived in the same garden these days, they hardly saw each other.Often Lin Shu was about to go to bed, Ling Fengxiao hadn't come back, or they had breakfast together, and they went to take their own exams.

On the afternoon of the day after the exam, the disciples went to Dreamland to accept Mr. Meng's assessment.

Lin Shu entered the dreamland. Mr. Meng, who had turned his back to the mountain road and was staring at the sea of ​​clouds, turned around, straightened his sleeves, and said in a gentle voice, "Fellow Daoist, sit down."

He sat opposite Mr. Meng at the stone table in the pavilion.

"Fellow Daoist's martial arts attainment is already very rare. If there is no special opportunity to realize it, it must be that the moves are more proficient." Mr. Meng poured tea into the pot and poured tea for both of them, and said, "So I want to see Has the state of mind of Fellow Daoist changed from before?"

After finishing speaking, he sighed softly, and said again: "But fellow Taoist's state of mind is no one in a million, and I don't know how to take the school exam for a while."

——Whenever he talked with Mr. Meng and was praised by Mr. Meng, Lin Shu always wondered if it was his salty fish who was praised.

"Since it is difficult to take the school exam, you might as well tell me about the experience and understanding of going to Huandang Mountain." Mr. Meng finally said.

Lin Shu sorted out his thoughts and began to explain to Mr. Meng.

On the Tongtian steps, the part that relies on spiritual power to move forward is lacklustre, so let's directly talk about the part that tests the Taoist heart.

"I couldn't get out of the Heaven-reaching Step at first."

Mr. Meng said "huh?" quite unexpectedly.

"I cultivate immortality, but I can't think of any purpose." Lin Shu was a little nervous, lowered his eyes to look at the lines on the stone table, and said, "I don't know why I cultivate immortality, so I can't get out."

Mr. Meng said: "What happened later?"

"Later... I thought about a lot of things. I realized that I really didn't want to make progress, but I didn't want to change. I also thought, I cultivate immortality, but I just want to cultivate immortality, and I don't want to do anything else, so I cultivate immortality."

Mr. Meng laughed.

Lin Shu blinked innocently: "Then I went down the steps, and the Heavenly Steps let me out."

Mr. Meng clapped his hands and praised it wonderfully: "Fellow Taoist, if you can devote yourself to cultivating immortals, you will be able to do what you want, and you will not fight for anything." There is a saying in the "Seven Signs of Yunji", the way of heaven, do what you do without fighting .It is exactly your way.”

Lin Shu said, "I don't know."

He thought about it, and felt that according to Mr. Meng, his own way was in line with the way of heaven, and he should follow the path of "harmonious way", but he didn't want to assimilate with the way of heaven, so he said again: "Then I am 'harmonious way' Is it?"

Mr. Meng said: "No."

He only heard his gentle voice, like a flowing spring in a valley, and said slowly: "Combining the Tao is to understand the mechanism of the operation of all things in the world, understand the rules of the operation of the heavens, and then obey the laws of heaven and assimilate with them, fellow Taoist, have you ever done this? Pass?"

Lin Shu: "No."

He just often looks at the rising and setting of the sun in a daze, and he doesn't have the diligence to explore the truth of the rising and setting of the sun.

"That's right, so you are still 'breaking the way', and you will fly through the thunder disaster in the future." Mr. Meng smiled slightly, and continued the tea: "When Confucianism and Taoism make articles, I think diction is second, and intention is the second." First, it’s the same when changing to the Immortal Daoist Academy.”

Lin Shu listened quietly.

"The Dao heart of a cultivator is the intention of a literati. The Dao of a cultivator is the article of a literati. After the article is written, it must be judged by others-whether it is unique and whether it is justified. The same is true for people who practice Taoism. If your way is firm enough, without flaws, and you can live alone without the way of heaven, then you can hope for Mahayana, leave the mortal world, and go to the fairy world."

Lin Shu nodded.

If before, he might not understand it, but now he can understand it thoroughly.

What Mr. Meng said at this time is basically the same as what the young master of Linglong Cave taught.

"Your Dao heart is in line with the way of heaven. That is to say, your intention can be compared with the way of heaven." Mr. Meng smiled, "It is really rare for you to have such a temperament before your age. , the shape of the transformed dragon is already vague', when you grow up a little bit, you can ascend through the tribulation, wouldn't it be easy to catch?"

It seems that it is not difficult to practice step by step and ascend through the tribulation.

But Lin Shu still felt that he had no Dao heart and no Dao.

In his previous life, he just cultivated according to the master's inner strength and martial arts method, and he naturally reached the stage of crossing the catastrophe. If he wants to describe it, it is really lacklustre.

Mr. Meng probably saw his confused eyes, so he didn't delve into it, but said: "You will understand in the future."

Lin Shu nodded and said, "Okay."

After talking about the Tongtian Rank, he said that he solved a demon caused by an old incident in Wanzhang Maze, and then talked about the Zhenlong chess game that he and Ling Xiao completed together in Linglong Cave.

He didn't say who Ling Xiao was, only that he happened to be on the same road.

"The principle of Zhenlong's chess game is exactly the principle of cultivating immortals to become immortals." Mr. Meng said, "You must have gained a lot from the favor of Master Linglong Cave."

Lin Shu nodded his head, his soul has strengthened, and he is also quite proficient in the operation of spiritual power.

He also said the truth he understood in Linglong Cave: There are loopholes in his chess game, and Ling Xiao's also has loopholes. The two complement each other, and the problem can be solved. After removing the impurities, there is a perfect solution.According to what the young master said, if the exercises of the two families are combined, even if this is the case, all the exercises in the world will be gathered together, and it must be an extremely exquisite way.

Mr. Meng's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he nodded in relief, "Friend Daoist, what you said has benefited me a lot. Even if one person makes a thousand and eight hundred solutions in Linglong Chess Game... a family's words, even if they are self-explanatory , but it is biased -- but I have gone astray."

Lin Shu looked at Mr. Meng, and remembered the man his cousin had mentioned.

That man had the talent to make one hundred and eight kinds of solutions to the Zhenlong chess game, but he died while guarding the isolated city at night during the Battle of Changyang.

The man's surname is Meng.

Meng, dream.

And Mr. Meng said at this time that he has gone astray——

He was at a loss for a moment.

After drinking the last sip of tea in the cup, Mr. Meng closed the cup with a smile on his face: "Fellow Daoist, you have really gained a lot in the past six months."

Lin Shu said: "Yes."

"However, even if it is the Tongtian Dao, it will not be flat. I have one thing to warn you."

Lin Shu said: "Okay."

Mr. Meng folded his hands in his sleeves, looked at the sea of ​​clouds outside the pavilion, and said, "This matter is hard to explain. Let me quote an example so that you can understand."

Lin Shu listened quietly.

I only heard Mr. Meng ask: "Do you know why there are only women in Phoenix Villa?"

——That's a good question.
