Zu Xiwei and I were incense on the portrait under the supervision of Qin Huailiang, and then he called us to the study.

Zu Xiwei found a place to sit down, while I stood by the desk and did not dare to move.

There are a lot of books in this study, and many of them are ancient books on TV. I can’t help but imagine that the books here are all martial arts secrets, right?

Qin Huailiang looked at me and said to me, "You can find a place to sit down too."

Then I found a chair to sit down.

Qin Huailiang said: "Zhang Mu, listen, from today on, Xiaowei will be your senior sister, and she will supervise and complete your practice from now on. If you fail, she can punish you at will."

I nodded and said "Yes".

Although Zu Xiwei is the same age as me, she has richer knowledge and broader vision than me. There should be no problem teaching me, not to mention that I don’t know what “cultivation course” is now.

Qin Huailiang continued, "Xiaowei, you must also provide good guidance to your junior brother."

Zu Xiwei said: "I don't care."

Qin Huailiang said again: "That's it. Tonight, you supervise Zhang Mu to put three incense sticks in front of the master, and then kneel in front of the master for another three hours, it will be a ritual. I have something to do, and I want to go out?"

Zu Xiwei said unhappyly: "You accepted him as your apprentice, are you not present?"

Qin Huailiang said: "I have something big to do."

Zu Xiwei snorted, got up and slammed the door and left the room.

But I didn't dare to be arrogant to Qin Huailiang, so I could only ask in a low voice: "Which room do I live in?"

Qin Huailiang said: "There are three bedrooms and a study room here. The locked one is not allowed to enter. It is mine. Another one is Xiaowei's. The remaining bedroom is yours. You can clean it up yourself."

I nodded.

When I was about to leave the study, Qin Huailiang threw me a book and said, "When I'm fine, read it carefully. Ask your senior sister if you don't understand the words you don't understand. You don't have to understand the above meaning, just memorize it first."

I took the book and read it. It said the four words "Lingmen Ancestors' Teachings" and next to the four big words, there are three small words I am familiar with - "Zu Kaishan".

I asked: "Is this written by Zu Kaishan?"

Qin Huailiang said sternly: "How can you call the name of Master directly? Also, when you talk to me in the future, you should first call me 'Master'. Do you understand?"

I nodded and said "Oh".

After leaving the room, I found that Zu Xiwei had returned to the bedroom and there was no one in the living room. I was so tired that I pulled the bag of big luggage into my room.

The room is big, with desks, chairs, and a neat big bed. Just looking at these, I feel enjoyable.

I finished everything and went to read the book.

Sure enough, there are many rare words at the beginning, and they are all classical Chinese. I don’t know them, let alone memorize them.

After reading it for a while, I felt my head hurt and threw the book aside.

I was a little tired after traveling for several days. After reading the extremely boring book for a while, I crawled on the bed and fell asleep.

When I woke up again, it was already evening. Zu Xiwei knocked on the door and told me to get up and have dinner.

And Qin Huailiang is no longer at home.

Zu Xiwei said that the food was made by herself, so I could taste it or not.

After I washed up, I sat next to the dining table and picked up the dishes and put them in my mouth very carefully. Although it was just a simple scrambled egg with tomatoes, I felt that it was so delicious that it was endless and kept saying, "It's delicious, delicious!"

Zu Xiwei smiled and said, "If you like to eat, I will cook it for you every day. That old man Qin Huailiang has never praised me for the delicious cooking. I have cooked several times but he doesn't eat it."

After dinner, Zu Xiwei supervised me to burn incense on Zu Kaishan's portrait, and then I really knelt in front of the portrait for three hours. During this period, she didn't let me go to the bathroom, and she insisted that I kneel enough.

She became stricter and was not inferior to Qin Huailiang at all.

Next, Zu Xiwei began to tutor me to read the "Lingmen Ancestors' Teachings", and this became the only thing I did during the winter vacation. I almost memorized it every day except eating and sleeping.

Through a winter vacation study, I roughly understood what is said.

It probably talks about some rules of the Lingyan Gate and the introduction of some practice methods. At the end of this book, several towers are described, and among those towers, one is the Fox Empress Tower, which I am familiar with.

Several other towers are distributed around the world, and are just a general introduction to their location, appearance and functions.

As for what those introductions are for, I can't know.

I asked Zu Xiwei if she knew.

She said: "Qin Huailiang and Wang Shibo have been searching for those towers all their lives, saying that they are finding the secrets of those towers, and they can find a divine tower that can reach the sky. By entering the divine tower, they can become immortals and Buddhas."

Becoming an immortal?

I was also a little excited when I heard Zu Xiwei say this. If I found the Tower of Tongtian and became a god, wouldn’t I have to be afraid of Blind Wang and Qin Huailiang anymore? It should be a very simple thing to get back my soul back then.

Thinking of this in my heart, I memorized the contents of the last few chapters of the "Lingmen Ancestors" with great skill.

As the winter vacation starts, Zu Xiwei and I received a letter from Qin Huailiang, which contained my admission procedures and some money.

Apart from these, Qin Huailiang didn't even have a question or explanation.

Even when the winter vacation starts, my admission procedures were handled by Zu Xiwei. I am her distant cousin at home, and I am his junior brother.

I have no friends in school. In Zu Xiwei's words, people like us don't need any friends, so I am a very introverted person in school. My classmates all think I am a freak and are not willing to play with me.

Fortunately, my academic performance is good, and the teachers attach great importance to me.

As for Qin Huailiang, I thought he would be back after walking for two months, but I didn’t expect that he would leave for more than a year.

During this period, we often received the money he sent back, but everything else was gone.

In the past year, I have memorized the book "The Ancestor of Lingmen" thoroughly.

Moreover, based on his own experience in practicing, Zu Xiwei also assigned me some practice courses. Over the past year, I have gradually mastered some key points of practice, and I have been able to concentrate on practicing.

The so-called concentrating practice means opening up a separate consciousness space in one's consciousness. Meditation and concentration can make that consciousness space connect with the pulse and breath of the body, and then control the speed and flow of the pulse and breath.

Through such practice, coupled with some physical exercise, the body can become particularly strong and also help improve the brain's memory. In this way, I have become the second fastest person in school to memorize texts.

As for the first place, it is naturally Zu Xiwei.

Zu Xiwei told me that in this academic practice, one must first concentrate the mind and then gather energy, and then one can perform the magic. After several years of training, one can become a celestial master. Only when one becomes a celestial master are qualified to find the Tower of Heaven and embark on the road to becoming an immortal and Buddha.

At this time, I also understood that Qin Huailiang and Wang Xiaozi had already become Tianshi Masters.

Let’s talk about it now, when Qin Huailiang came back, Zu Xiwei and I were already eleven years old, which was the summer vacation.

At that time, under the care and influence of Zu Xiwei, I became a city child.

When Qin Huailiang came back, I was meditating in the room.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Zu Xiwei and I ran out to see it. Zu Xiwei said directly: "You are finally willing to come back. I think you are dead outside."

Qin Huailiang's face was extremely ugly, his lips were white, and his body trembled from time to time. Moreover, it was summer now, but he was wearing very thick clothes and looked very cold.

Although Zu Xiwei's mouth was amazing, she still had a sense of worry in her eyes, but she did not make any concern.

Qin Huailiang ignored Zu Xiwei, but turned to look at me and said, "You, come with me to the room."

I instantly felt something was wrong.

But I could not disobey Qin Huailiang's orders. My body walked towards Qin Huailiang directly as if he was out of control.

Zu Xiwei was stunned for a moment and asked Qin Huailiang what he asked me to do.

Qin Huailiang showed a look of wanting to eat people, then glared at Zu Xiwei with his lifeless eyes and said, "It's not your business!"

Zu Xiwei was also stunned.

Many times, a child is always at a loss in the face of the majesty of an adult, even the smart and independent Zu Xiwei.

After entering Qin Huailiang's room, he directly pinched a finger and pressed it on the back of my neck. I couldn't move at once. Then he took out three silver needles and pricked them on my forehead, palms and palms.

Like before, he took away part of my soul and swallowed it.

But I have no strength to resist.

I could feel only horror and despair.

After swallowing my soul, Qin Huailiang took a deep breath, and then his expression recovered a lot. He took off his thick clothes and said slowly: "Your soul is indeed a good thing. If you let me recover from this level of injury, it will be impossible in less than one or two months, but now I can recover in up to three days."

As he said that, Qin Huailiang smiled, then slapped my shoulder, and I was able to move immediately, half-sitting on the bed.

I looked at Qin Huailiang in horror and asked, "You will finish my soul."

Qin Huailiang smiled and said, "I took this point just a drop in the bucket. It's far worse than what my senior brother took it away, so you're still early to die, and I can't bear to die."

Before I could speak, Qin Huailiang said, "Put it out, take the iron box and go into the mountain with me, and call your senior sister."

"Something is something that you should experience in person."

I asked Qin Huailiang if he was going to the place where he was injured.

He snorted, "If you take you there, it is equivalent to letting you die. I will take you to other places."

I asked Qin Huailiang again what we were going to do.

Qin Huailiang had just eaten my soul, and I couldn't help but feel resistant to what he arranged.

Qin Huailiang smiled and said, "Go to catch a man-eating insect, the process will be guaranteed to be unforgettable for you. By the way, haven't you always wanted to find my senior brother to get back the lost soul? Maybe you will meet him there."

Will Blind Wang go, too?
