Chapter 136 Change of Identity
Mopan Mountain, Wenjian Villa.
As soon as Mo Juren returned from Baoyuntai, he received a message from the Fifth Madam, saying that Wenjian Villa had been built and invited Mo Juren to inspect it together.
After several months of construction, the Wenjian Villa has grown to a considerable size and has now become a formal branch of the Jingjiao Society, specifically responsible for training young disciples in the gang.
Mo Juren simplified the method of sensing qi that he had excerpted from "Tiannan Five Elements Basic Exercises" into cultivation formulas for several acupoints on the hands, and prepared to let these boys test it.
Of course, this technique was not taught directly, but was mixed into the daily practice of these boys, disguised as a series of calligraphy articles for self-cultivation and invigoration, and taught to them in batches every day by a special teacher.
During their practice, there will be someone responsible for checking their practice every day. If their palms are found to be hot, it is very likely that they have absorbed the corresponding spiritual energy and may have the corresponding spiritual roots.
This is the method that Mo Juren thought of to test spiritual roots and recruit disciples. As to whether it is feasible, it may take a few years to find out.
It's such a hassle, but there's nothing that can be done about it. After all, I don't have the kind of magical instruments that are specially used to test spiritual roots that the immortal sect or family has.
Mo Juren also had this testing method tried by several of his wives and daughters, even his third wife.
But unfortunately, none of them can sense spiritual energy, and each of them has a mortal body like his original self.
As expected, spiritual roots suitable for cultivating immortals are not that common, and the majority of people are born mortals.
Seeing that everything in the villa was on track, Mo Juren felt relieved and prepared to leave.
At this moment, he was eager to improve his cultivation and just wanted to return to the cave not far away to practice.
The Fifth Lady called Mo Juren and said mysteriously,
"Husband. The maid you asked me to find a few days ago has been found."
"Oh, really? Then bring it here. It will be just right for you to go back to the cave with me."
Madam Five clapped her hands and said,
"come in!"
A woman walked in from outside the door. Mo Juren glanced at her casually, but he was a little unhappy. He whispered,
"Why is it her! He'er, why did you choose her to be the maid? Don't you know her true identity?"
The person who came was a beautiful woman. She was dressed like a maid, and her clothes were simple, but it could not hide her graceful aura. Her makeup was light, and she didn't wear any powder, but there was a kind of charming and mature temperament between her eyebrows.
It was Ma Kongtian’s widow—Zhang Qing!
The Fifth Lady smiled and said,
"I know, isn't she Ma Kongtian's concubine? Haha, you, my husband, specially placed her in the Dark Rudder!"
Mo Juren explained,
"It wasn't a deliberate arrangement, it was just that at the time... By the way, doesn't she have a son? How could you have the nerve to separate someone else from their son?"
The Fifth Lady said seriously,
"She was chosen this time mainly because she is efficient, capable, smart, knows her limits, and is capable of taking care of her husband's daily life,"
"As for the rest, please don't worry about it. I have already asked about it. Her son is now training in Wenjian Villa and is being taken care of by the sect."
"She knows that she can serve you in your cave, which is closer to Wenjian Villa, and she is very willing to do so."
Seeing that Mo Juren was still trying to make excuses, the Fifth Lady pretended to be sad and said,
"Oh, I see. Could it be that my husband actually wants to find a young and beautiful girl? If so, it's He'er's fault? It's all He'er's fault for misinterpreting my husband's intentions..."
Seeing the Fifth Lady saying this, Mo Juren had no choice but to agree.
"That's not what I meant... Well, since He'er insists, then let her do it."
The Fifth Lady smiled and said, "Yes, husband."
"Zhang Qing, I have explained everything that needs to be said. From now on, you should forget your identity and serve my husband well in the cave. Don't make any mistakes. Do you understand?"
Zhang Qing stepped forward, bowed, and said,
"As you command, Madam Wu, I understand. I am Zhang Qing, your servant, and I greet you, Master!"
Mo Juren then took Zhang Qing and, like the Fifth Madam before, brought him back to the cave using the Wind Controlling Technique.
The speed of the Wind Controlling Technique is difficult for ordinary people to feel. Zhang Qing and Mo Juren rode the wind together and her heartbeat accelerated, but she endured it well, sticking to her duty and keeping silent.
The wife of his former brother had now changed her identity, and even Mo Juren had not figured out how to treat her, so the two of them remained silent along the way.
Arriving at the cave, Mo Juren activated the formation and entered. He pointed to the small house next to him and said,
"That is your daily residence. Various supplies have been prepared. You can get familiar with it. When I am usually practicing in the cave, I don't need to be disturbed. You just need to take care of your normal life. If there is anything, I will give you other instructions."
Zhang Qing answered obediently,
"I understand, Master. Please rest assured."
So Mo Juren went into the cave on his own and started practicing.
After a few days like this, Zhang Qing completed her maid's duties very appropriately and helped Mo Juren to tidy up the cave and courtyard in perfect order.
The food is no longer just dry food and barbecue, but normal hot meals and dishes.
All this has saved him a lot of time. Mo Juren enjoys it very much. The more he looks at this picture, the more satisfied he becomes.
It's another full moon night.
Mo Juren was in the cave. He closed the inner formation, took out the magical porcelain piece, connected the moonlight to the empty space of the cave, and released yellow light dust step by step to stimulate the growth of medicinal herbs on the green land.
He himself sat cross-legged on the ground in the cave, absorbing the leaked "yellow energy".
This is Mo Juren’s monthly homework.
The chaotic and disordered "vital energy" leaking out from this magical porcelain piece is a rare benefit to Mo Juren's cultivation.
Not only can it transform into magic power, but it is also far more suitable for body training than evil spirits and is hundreds of times stronger.
Unfortunately, there was only a little bit of it every month, so he absorbed all of it without missing a single issue.
Fortunately, he now has the help of many wives and maids who can help balance the yin and yang in his body at any time. He does not have to worry about excessive yang accumulating and having nowhere to release it.
After practicing all night, Mo Juren opened up five obvious acupoints and ten hidden acupoints.
Now, at the internal organ level of Xiangjia Kung Fu, sixteen of the twenty-four acupoints have been opened, which is two-thirds of the progress.
But he was a little confused. This training at the organ level didn't seem to have any effect on improving the strength of the body, and the number of acupoints seemed to make no difference.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the 100 kilograms of monster meat that he brought back from Tainan Market. It seemed that after eating the monster meat containing spiritual energy, it nourished his body more effectively.
If things don't work, you have to seek change. It seems that I need to go to Mengshan, where many monsters and spirit beasts live, and try my hand at hunting.
I believe Hu Pinggu and the other girl would be more familiar with these matters and could contact each other.
There are also the Five Friends of Mengshan, who seem to be proficient in this as well...
