Chapter 368 Inheritance
Mr. Zhuang will leave in one month.
This is what Mr. Zhuang said to Mo Hua and the Bai Zisheng brothers and sisters, asking them to prepare during this period and handle their private matters.
After that, they will leave Tongxian City and travel elsewhere.
Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi have nothing to prepare.
This month is mainly reserved for Mo Hua to spend time with his parents, say goodbye to acquaintances and friends, and deal with some trivial matters.
Ink painting is about to leave...
When Liu Ruhua made the decision, he was firm. But when things came to a close, he realized that Mo Hua, who had been by his side for more than ten years, was about to leave. Suddenly, he felt heartbroken and reluctant to let go.
Worried that he would sleep in the open air, not have enough to eat, and not sleep well.
I miss him and he has a long future ahead. I don't know what dangers he will encounter and how many grievances he will suffer...
Mo Hua spent more time at home to accompany his parents and reassure them.
When Elder Yu learned about this, he was reluctant to part with it, but he was also happy for Mo Hua.
It is not easy to become a formation master among casual cultivators, let alone a formation master with such extraordinary talent as Mo Hua.
But the dragon cannot be trapped in the shallows while traveling for nine days.
Tongxian City is too small and limited to this place. It will be difficult for Mo Hua to achieve higher achievements in the future. Therefore, although he feels regretful about the matter of traveling around as a disciple, he is also happy to see its success.
After Mo Hua left, there were no formation masters among the casual cultivators in Tongxian City.
With this in mind, Mo Hua also made plans early.
He went to find Master Qian and said:
“Master Qian, I have a request.”
Master Qian hurriedly said: "Don't you dare..."
He neither dared to call him "Master" in front of the ink painting, nor dared to accept the ink painting's request, so he said:
“Mr. Xiao Mo, if you have any orders, just tell me. As long as someone has the money to do it, I will do whatever it takes.”
The ancestor of the Qian family was convicted by the Taoist court, and all the family property was donated. The clan members were separated, and they all lived their own lives. Not only did they not help each other, they even fought for small profits and bloodshed.
The Qian family used to value profits over righteousness, and their disciples were all wolf cubs.
Now that it is in decline, there is no profit, and it is normal for the people to be alienated from their morality.
Today, the Qian family is no longer a family, but more like a group of casual cultivators named Qian, not even as united as the casual cultivators.
Master Qian is a formation master with a special status. Even without the protection of the Qian family, he can still live a good life.
However, after encountering many changes, I also lamented that the path of cultivation is unpredictable and the world is impermanent. The utilitarian mentality has faded away, and everyone has focused on the formation.
Mo Hua then said: "Master Qian, can you teach San Xiu how to learn the formation?"
Master Qian looked stunned. He never expected that what Mo Hua was talking about would be this.
Master Qian hesitated and said:
“Of course you can teach, but...”
It's just that he has never considered this aspect, and he has never thought that one day, he might do such a thing and teach casual cultivators...
Mo Hua said: "If you are willing, I will tell Elder Yu that if you have any needs or encounter any difficulties in the future, Elder Yu will also help you."
Master Qian was slightly startled, and then he gradually understood.
Ink painting gave him an opportunity and a guarantee.
The Qian family is in decline, the walls are falling, and some old accounts will be settled, and life will not be easy in the future.
Although he is a formation master and does not need to worry about this, his surname is Qian after all, so he cannot escape the involvement.
Now Mo Hua gave him an opportunity to teach Sanxiu formations. He also made good friends with Elder Yu and eased the relationship.
If there are any difficulties in the future, Elder Yu will help him because he teaches the formation.
Behind Elder Yu are all the demon hunters in Tongxian City. With Elder Yu's relationship, he will not be in trouble in Tongxian City.
This matter is beneficial to both parties, and it is very thoughtful.
Master Qian then agreed: "As long as Mr. Xiao Mo doesn't dislike me for my lack of talent and shallow learning, I will naturally be willing to teach him everything I have."
Mo Hua nodded.
Although the Qian family does not rely on formations, they still have a certain inheritance of formations, especially when it comes to teaching formations to their disciples, and there is experience to follow.
It was for this reason that Mo Hua asked Master Qian to teach the casual cultivation formation.
But this is not enough.
Mo Hua took out another book "General Interpretation of the First Grade Formation" and handed it to Master Qian:
“This is the formation book that I took the time to compile these days. It records the general drawing method of the first-grade formation, arranges the process of learning the formation step by step, and also appends some insights..."
“…Master Qian would like to ask for some advice. If there is no problem, we can use this “Comprehensive Explanation of Formation” as a basis to teach the formation to casual disciples…”
Mo Hua said it very politely.
Master Qian smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Mr. Xiao Mo is too polite, but I don't dare to take the word 'pointing' seriously..."
With Mo Hua's formation level, he is not qualified to "give guidance" at all.
Master Qian was also curious about what kind of formation book Mo Hua would compile.
He opened the "Comprehensive Interpretation of First-Rank Formation", glanced at it for a few times, and was stunned.
This... is not an ordinary formation book.
Rather, it covers the general outline of learning formations from one formation pattern to nine formation patterns, all first-level formations and below.
From the shallower to the deeper, from the outside to the inside, the principles of the first-level formation and the rules of spiritual power operation are explained step by step.
Easy to understand, with detailed foundation and extremely profound foundation of formations.
What is even more valuable is that not only the basic formation theory, but also how to go further and learn more complex complex formations after learning the nine-line formation. There are also explanations in this "General Interpretation".
This means that this "Comprehensive Explanation of the First-Rank Formation" can not only help monks who do not know how to learn formations, but also learn the first-level formations step by step from beginning to end.
A "pseudo-first-grade" formation master like me who is stuck on the threshold of determination can also benefit from it and learn more advanced formations, thereby stepping over the threshold and possessing the ability to pass the qualification and become a first-grade formation master.
This book is a consistent, complete and profound inheritance of formations.
Even the formation inheritance collected by the Qian family over hundreds of years cannot compare with this.
Master Qian's hands were trembling and he felt that the book was extremely heavy in his hands. He couldn't help but ask:
“Do you really want to leave this to me?”
He felt that he deserved it.
"Yes." Mo Hua nodded, "For things like formations, if we keep them to ourselves, they are just outdated knowledge. Only by passing them on, letting more people understand them, and benefiting more monks, can they be regarded as complying with the way of heaven, and can they be regarded as true formations. Law."
Ink painting has clear eyes and sincere tone.
At that moment, Master Qian actually felt a little ashamed of himself. He sighed and solemnly said:
“Don't worry, Mr. Xiao Mo, I will keep my promise and pass on these formations for the rest of my life!”
Mo Hua was greatly relieved and saluted:
“Then there is the master of labor and money!”
Master Qian quickly returned the gift, "Mr. Xiao Mo, you're so polite!"
Mo Hua thought for a while and said, "There is one more thing I need to trouble Master Qian."
“I dare not say 'trouble', Mr. Xiao Mo, please speak.”
Mo Hua said: "I would like to ask Master Qian to help take in a child and personally teach him the formation."
Master Qian was slightly startled, "Who is this child?"
"His surname is Chu, and his nickname is Zhou'er. I promised his father, Uncle Chu, to teach him the formation, but Zhou'er was still young at that time and couldn't learn it."
“Since I promised, I can't go back on it.”
“I am going to travel now and I don't know when I will come back, so I want to ask Master Qian to help me and teach the formation on my behalf, so that he can make a living in the future.”
"Chu Zhou'er..." Master Qian recited it again, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Mo, I will teach him carefully."
“Then thank you Master Qian!”
After that, Mo Hua stood up and left, and Master Qian respectfully sent him to the door.
After Mo Hua left, he went to see Master Luo again and gave him a copy of "Comprehensive Interpretation of First-Rank Formation".
Master Luo was extremely grateful as if he had found a treasure.
The basic points of formation in it are of little significance to Master Luo, but the formation experience in the appendix is very precious to him, and can even help him see through the bottleneck of a first-grade formation master.
Mo Hua told Master Qian that he had asked Master Qian to teach him the Sanxiu Formation. Master Luo was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement:
“That's so good!”
It not only inherited the formation, but also eased the contradictions.
Mo Hua saw Master Luo drinking tea leisurely at home, and suddenly asked curiously:
“Aren't you going to the Lanshan Sect?”
The big demon appeared before and Tongxian City was about to be moved. Master Luo found a way out, which was to become an outer sect elder in the Lanshan Sect.
Master Luo shook his head, "I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. I know how much I weigh."
"I would not leave Tongxian City unless I had to."
Master Luo sneered slightly, "I'm not afraid of Mr. Mo's jokes. In Tongxian City, I am a respected first-class formation master. Outside, I am just an ordinary outer sect elder. Being controlled everywhere, looking at the scenery, but not feeling comfortable, I don't want to suffer that.”
Mo Hua asked doubtfully: "But wouldn't it be better to inherit the formation from outside? Don't you want to go further?"
"You can't just go in if you want to go further." Master Luo shook his head, "The greater the power, the more benefits. The more benefits there are, the more intrigues are inevitable."
“Sometimes, when it comes to formations, we still pay little attention to fame and wealth, but also pay attention to tranquility and long-term goals. If the mind is confused, it will not be easy to learn well, and you may even learn incorrectly.”
"What's more, the inheritance of formations outside is not so good." Master Luo sighed, "It's possible that you can only get some leftovers if you put all your efforts into it, which is not enough to satisfy your hunger. You also need to Being looked down upon by others..."
In Mo Hua, he suddenly realized that Master Luo is also a person with stories.
Perhaps I have gone out before, endured the wind and waves, and worked hard to camp, but still got nothing and was treated coldly.
At this time, he returned to Tongxian City, lying on a bamboo chair, drinking tea, and living a peaceful life.
“Don't you feel unwilling?” Mo Hua asked curiously.
"Everyone has his own destiny, and you can't force it." Master Luo was very open-minded, "And inheritance sometimes depends on chance..."
He patted the "Comprehensive Interpretation of First-Rank Formation" that Mo Hua gave him, "Look, isn't the opportunity here?"
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. He thought Master Luo was really interesting.
Mo Hua drank a few more cups of the fine tea collected by Master Luo, chatted about some of his experiences in formations, and when it was getting late, he got up and left.
Master Luo also stood up and personally sent the ink painting out of the door.
Looking at Mo Hua's retreating figure, Master Luo murmured:
“I went out to travel with my teacher. This is because I got a personal report...”
“If you come back after learning this and the formation is even better, it will be really… unlimited…”
Master Luo sighed, then looked expectantly, looked at the back of the ink painting and said softly:
“Study hard…”
