"Not entirely."
Cui Yuan shook his head, "There are still some things to say. The first one is respect."
"Before entering the temple, you don't need to burn incense and take a bath, but you must clean up after all. After entering the temple, you must calm down and concentrate. You must not have the slightest distracting thoughts, let alone be disrespectful to the Spirit Seal in the temple."
Jiang Yuechu nodded slightly.
She understood this.
You have to hand over a cigarette when asking for help, let alone ask for a trace of all the souls in heaven and earth True Intention?
"The second rule is to measure your ability."
"Among the Martial Temple, there are many Spirit Seal. Although our ancestors of the human race have asked for them from heaven and earth, they are also divided into three, six, and nine grades."
"Some are gentle, some are violent, and some are even more vicious."
"As soon as you activate your will, if those Spirit Seal sense it, they will respond naturally."
"If it's the gentle one, that's fine. If it provokes the cruel one..."
Cui Yuan paused and pointed at his forehead.
"If one's own foundation is not strong enough and one's mind is not strong, and one tries to accept such a great opportunity by force, at least one's soul will be damaged and become a person of dementia, or at worst... the body will die and the Tao will disappear."
Jiang Yuechu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is there such a thing?"
"Natural."
Cui Yuan sighed, "Every year there are always some arrogant geniuses who have their eyes set higher than the top and insist on seeking the top Spirit Seal. As a result... hey, good seedlings die before they can grow into big trees."
"So, if you feel something is wrong, remember to stop thinking about it immediately."
"If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood."
Jiang Yuechu nodded.
"What about the third item?"
"Article 3..."
Cui Yuan grinned, "Hey, I just listen to fate."
"Even if you do the first two, whether you can get Spirit Seal still depends on luck."
"Sometimes, you fall in love with someone, and they look down on you. Sometimes, you fall in love with someone, and you feel that it's almost boring."
"This thing is just like finding a wife, it depends on fate."
Jiang Yuechu: "..."
Not...
After all, isn't it still about luck?!
Cui Yuan also knew that what he said was a little wrong. He coughed and quickly changed the topic, "Do you think the imperial examination is too cumbersome and even a little humiliating?"
"Not really."
Jiang Yuechu shook his head, not that he had any intention.
In her opinion, since the imperial court opened this Daoist Sect, it is normal for it to be on guard.
Cui Yuan heard this and looked at her deeply.
"Jiang General of the Guard is a sensible person."
"Although the court has strict inspections and many rules, the door to Martial Temple is open as long as you have a clean family background and sufficient merit."
"Furthermore, once you obtain Spirit Seal and become Ink-Dotting Realm, the imperial court will have no other strict restrictions other than letting you continue to perform your duties. Your abilities are your own."
Speaking of this, Cui Yuan sneered and pointed to several towering pavilions in the city in the distance.
"Did you see those places?"
"Those Aristocratic Clan clans with long-standing heritage have profound heritage, and their clans all enshrine inherited objects such as spiritual monuments."
"The ones sealed inside are their own ancestors, or Spirit Seal who were captured from heaven and earth at a great cost."
"As long as you are willing to nod, with your talent, no one will refuse. They will even beat gongs and drums to bring Spirit Seal to you to help you break through immediately."
"It can even provide you with a steady stream of resources to help you Lotus-Planting or even Mountain-Viewing in the future."
Jiang Yuechu narrowed his eyes, "What's the price?"
There is no free lunch in the world.
If such a good thing really happened, wouldn't all the warriors in this world become dogs for the Aristocratic Clan?
"Price?"
Cui Yuan sneered and shook his head, "Your life, and even the lives of your descendants, belong to the master. Once you have second thoughts or want to backfire on the master, all it takes is the master's thought..."
"Got it."
Jiang Yuechu faintly spit out two words.
Although she likes to take advantage.
But it's hard to live a somewhat humane life.
If it's for this Ink-Dotting Realm, to be a dog for others...
Cui Yuan Seeing that her expression was dull and not showing any emotion, a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes.
"Every year, there are countless arrogant geniuses who hit a wall at Martial Temple, turn around and kneel at the gate of the Aristocratic Clan, begging to be treated like dogs."
"But they don't want to think about it either..."
"With his backbone broken, no matter how high his cultivation level is, he is just a guard dog that looks a little more ferocious."
"In martial arts, what you cultivate is not only the body, but also the mind."
"If your heart drops to your knees, this journey of martial arts will come to an end."
Jiang Yuechu also stood up.
These words are quite clear.
"Thank you, Mr. Cui, for clearing up the confusion."
The two chatted for a while.
Cui Yuan looked at the sky outside and saw that the sun had already climbed into the middle. He patted the corners of his robe on his knees and stood up.
"It's almost time."
"If you miss the auspicious time, no matter how lucky you are, the door to Martial Temple will not open."
Jiang Yuechu Hearing this, he did not dare to neglect and stood up to follow.
Exit the side hall and pass through several corridors.
The back door of General Headquarters is facing the east side door of the majestic Imperial City.
There were not many people standing at the door like General Headquarters, only two people.
But these two people were wearing Golden Scales heavy armor, with bronze beast-head masks on their faces, holding long swords in their hands, and their auras were condensed and silent.
Jiang Yuechu looked at the two of them and felt a little depressed.
Good guy...
I was considered one of the top ones at Longyou, but at Chang'an, I felt like everyone was better than me.
Even a veteran like Cui Yuan who has been in General Headquarters for many years, when he got here, he couldn't help but calm down his laxity.
He took out the token from his pocket and handed it over with both hands.
The guard took it, inspected it carefully, and then looked at Jiang Yuechu.
He didn't speak, just waved his hand.
The two walked into Imperial City, one behind the other.
Although it is a side door, it still has a strict atmosphere.
Jiang Yuechu squinted his eyes and looked at Great Tang's Imperial City with some curiosity.
Cui Yuan lowered his voice, "Although Martial Temple is located within Imperial City, it is in a remote location, next to Taiye Pond in the northwest corner."
"We have to pass through several forbidden areas along the way."
He looked serious and warned, "Don't look around, let alone ask around."
"In this Imperial City, there are not only His Majesty, but also the ladies in the harem. If you bump into any nobles, or see something you shouldn't see..."
Jiang Yuechu looks calm and does not squint.
"I understand the humble position."
She has no interest in the so-called royal secrets.
As long as it doesn't delay her request for Spirit Seal, let alone the empress, even if the emperor runs naked in front of her, she won't bother to take a second look.
The two of them walked quickly along the base of the palace wall.
Occasionally, when I encounter Yulin Guard on patrol, I just stay away from him.
Perhaps because he felt it was too boring, Cui Yuan held it in for a while, then couldn't help but speak.
He turned his head and looked up and down at the girl next to him.
Xuan Yi is well-dressed, and the figure is slender and straight.
Although it has been mixed in the Demon Suppression Bureau all year round and has been contaminated with a bit of murderous aura, this skin is indeed extremely healthy.
Especially her cool and dusty temperament is even more unique in Imperial City, which is rich in makeup and powder.
"Actually..."
Cui Yuan touched his chin, lowered his voice and laughed:
"Besides seeking the seal of Martial Temple, or taking refuge in the Aristocratic Clan, there is a third way in this world that can allow you to reach the sky in one step."
Jiang Yuechu paused slightly, a little confused.
"Third way?"
"Not bad."
Cui Yuan pointed not far away, "With Jiang General of the Guard's appearance, if she can be chosen by His Majesty, she will be selected into the palace and made a royal concubine or something."
"When the time comes, this country's fortune will be blessed, what can Spirit Seal not ask for?"
"Even if you just want to be a wealthy and idle person, you are still inferior to a few people but superior to ten thousand people."
The words are not finished yet.
Cui Yuan felt a chill on my back.
He looked subconsciously out of the corner of his eye.
He saw the girl next to him with a dark face.
It seemed like he was about to draw a knife and kill someone in the next second.
For Jiang Yuechu.
Even if it is to become stronger or to survive, some bottom lines can be flexibly adjusted.
But...
Be the emperor's concubine?
"Master Cui."
Jiang Yuechu gritted his teeth and said with a soft smile, "This joke is not funny at all."
"..."
Cui Yuan also realized that he had made a mistake. He blushed and laughed dryly, "Ahem... pretend I didn't say it, pretend I didn't say it."
Young people are very angry...
He turned around sarcastically, and his steps quickened a bit.
"Go quickly, go quickly, we'll be at Martial Temple soon."
"Don't waste time!"
