"Is it so exciting at first?" Lian Ge shook his head, let go of his emotions, and carefully looked at the evil spirit in front of him.
"Well, the skin is festered and swollen, showing the state of a giant. It should be drowned, a drowning ghost."
Lian Ge looked at the answering interface again and gave his own judgment.
The voice fell, and the system did not give feedback on whether the answer was correct.
It's just that the ferocious ghost in front of him gradually disappeared.
The first question on the answer interface also disappears.
New questions quickly emerged on the answering interface.
"The second question, as the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. Is this sentence correct?"
After a quick scan, nothing out of the ordinary this time.
Lian Ge looked at this question, and after a little thought, replied:
"Not entirely correct. As the resentment and hostility of ghosts become stronger, they will gradually lose their rationality and become disgusted with life and death. In this case, ghosts may cause harm to people indiscriminately."
After speaking, Lian Ge paused slightly, and added, "In addition, ghosts belong to yin, and humans belong to yang. Even if ghosts have no intention of harming others, they will do harm to both humans and ghosts if they live together for a long time."
"The third question..."
A series of questions gradually emerged and disappeared with Lian Ge's answers.
Except for the first question, there was no abnormal situation. It seemed that the scene at the beginning was just to give him a bad impression.
……
Time goes by, in the pure white environment space,
Lian Ge's reply echoed continuously.
Perhaps because of the most solid grasp of "Mysterious Common Sense", Lian Ge did not encounter any major problems in the first half of the entire subject test.
"Question No. 30, please explain the complete steps of going negative."
The moment he saw this question, Lian Ge couldn't help smiling. Perhaps this is the knowledge he knows best about "Mysterious Common Sense". After all, he has personally experienced it.
"First, go to the local urban area and look for the bus stops related to the Temple of the Earth or the Temple of the City God..."
Lian Ge replied smoothly.
Soon, the No.30 question was answered and the question disappeared.
A brand new topic gradually emerged.
"Question No. 30 is a comprehensive application question. Please respond correctly in the following situations."
"Ok?"
Seeing this question, Lian Ge couldn't help but roll his eyes, suspecting that something would pop up suddenly like the first question.
And the system did not live up to his expectations. Almost instantly, the environment around Lian Ge began to change.
"One year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, you were alone at home late at night. In search of excitement, you decided to watch horror horror movies in the living room..."
The system sound sounded, as if it came from a distance, and it seemed a little melodious.
The environment in front of Lian Ge also changed accordingly.
From the pure white fantasy space, he entered a certain living room.
Seeing the moment when the surrounding environment changed, Lian Ge quickly glanced around to observe the situation.
The entire living room seemed a bit dark, the space was not wide, even cramped, and the furnishings were relatively simple.
A fifty-inch TV was hung on the opposite wall, and an unknown horror movie was playing on it at the moment, and weird music was released from time to time.
There is a chandelier above the head, but it is not turned on, only the TV with horror movies is emitting a faint light.
Except for the wall where the TV is located, there are rows of sofas on the other three sides, surrounded by a coffee table.
At this moment, Lian Ge was sitting on the sofa opposite the TV with horror movies on.
Looking at the surrounding environment, Lian Ge did not move rashly, he was afraid that his movement would trigger a chain reaction.
Keeping vigilant, Lian Ge took advantage of the light from the TV to observe the whole living room in detail.
On the wall where the TV is located, there is a clock hanging on the upper right corner, and the ticking hour hand on it shows the current time: "01:22"
After a slight pause, Lian Ge looked away and looked at the wall behind the sofa on the right. There was a window on the right wall. The window was open at the moment, and the wind outside the house was blowing the curtains inside the house from time to time. , making it look like an invisible elf is hiding inside the curtain...or a ghost.
After resting his eyes on the window and the fluttering curtains for a moment, Lian Ge moved his eyes again and looked to the left.
Behind the sofa on the left, there is a passage reserved, which seems to lead to the bedroom outside the living room, and on the wall next to this passage, there seems to be a painting or photo vaguely hung.
After carefully looking at it, and after confirming that he couldn't tell the difference, Lian Ge looked away, and finally looked at the coffee table in front of him and the TV in front of him.
On the TV, the horror movie continued to play, and screams could be heard from time to time, as well as a weird and horrifying soundtrack.
And on the tea table in front of him, there were three sticks of incense, a piece of yellow paper with talismans written on it, and a box of matches.
Seems like a quest prop.
Lian Ge glanced at the three items on the coffee table, smiled slightly, neither reached for them, nor stood up, and sat still on the sofa,
He even turned his gaze back to the opposite TV and watched it with great interest.
"call……"
As if feeling Lian Ge's indifference, the wind outside the window howled even more, disturbing the curtains and moving them manically,
The ticking sound of the clock hanging next to the TV became more and more intense,
The thing hanging on the left wall, I don't know if it's a painting or a photo, I don't know if it was affected by the wind or something, it bumped against the wall.
On the TV, the voice from the horror movie became more and more shrill.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what kind of rotten movie, this can also be called a horror movie."
Lian Ge looked at it with relish, seeing nothing in the changing environment around him, and even relaxed a little, lying down on the back of the sofa, only to pack popcorn.
It seems that Lian Ge's unscrupulousness stimulated something unknown.
"Boom thump... thump thump..."
The wind became more violent, and even the door behind Lian Ge began to be knocked.
"Knock what, knock, you came in." Lian Ge said casually, leaning on the back of the sofa, without turning his head.
The voice fell, and in an instant, the knocking on the door stopped.
"Click...click...click."
There was a clear sound of the door opening, followed by a gust of cool wind from behind, and the sound of approaching footsteps.
It seemed that something really was approaching Lian Ge from behind.
But Lian Ge didn't move at all, still enjoying the horror movie on TV.
at last,
The footsteps behind Lian Ge stopped, as if the man was right behind Lian Ge.
Immediately afterwards, a biting cold feeling came from Lian Ge's shoulder, which made Lian Ge pause.
He clearly felt that there was a hand on his shoulder.
"Don't make trouble, just watch TV."
Still not looking back, Lian Ge stretched out his hand, patted that hand, and then directly pulled off the 'hand',
The moment this action was completed, the wind howling outside the window stopped, the horror movie on the TV ended, and the end credits began, and the photos or paintings that hit the wall from time to time also became quiet.
Seeing this scene, Lian Ge, who was leaning on the sofa, couldn't help smiling, and whispered to himself,
"Who are you scaring? You don't even have any yin energy and you're still haunted."
"It's fine to put Zhang Talisman on the coffee table, it's still Zhang Zhao Ghost Talisman..."
With the sound of Lian Ge's voice, the surrounding environment gradually changed again, the living room disappeared, and Lian Ge returned to the pure white fantasy space.
Chapter 36 Assessment of the Basics of Practice
"...Congratulations to the host, you have completed the assessment of the first subject "Mysterious Common Sense". It took 47 minutes. The system is grading, please wait a moment."
"Out of 98 points, [-] points, congratulations to the host for passing the first subject assessment."
The system notification sound echoed in the pure white assessment fantasy space,
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge showed a smile on his face,
"Do you want to start the next subject assessment immediately?
Note that the system exam time is calculated based on the total time spent on the three subjects. "
The system beeps again.
"Sure." Lian Ge nodded and said directly.
"Please host to choose the next exam subject, please choose one from "Principles of Talismans and Seals" or "Basics of Practice"."
"The foundation of practice."
"The assessment of "Practice Basics" is about to begin, please prepare the host."
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge took a deep breath,
If the "Mysterious Common Sense" assessed before was the subject that Lian Ge mastered the most and passed the assessment, then "Fundamentals of Practice" was the subject with the least grasp among the three subjects.
The reason is nothing more than that "Practice Basics" is too boring and there is too much pure conceptual knowledge.
Shaking his head and clearing his mind of distracting thoughts, Lian Ge focused his attention on the answering holographic screen again.
"The assessment of "Practice Basics" has officially begun."
The system prompt sounded at the right time, and then, on the answering interface, the first question belonging to "Practice Basics" appeared.
"First question, what is the concept of practice?"
"Cultivation refers to the process of never being perfect and constantly becoming perfect.
Human practice is mainly divided into two parts. One is "cultivation", that is, practice. Practitioners need to constantly cultivate their hearts to make their hearts perfect.
The second is behavior, that is, behavior. Behavior needs to be in line with one's own thoughts, and the unity of knowledge and action is required.
Specific to the narrow sense of 'practice', it is..."
"Second question, does practice have to be the continuous improvement of mana? Please explain your point of view."
"Wrong, according to the concept of practice..."
In the pure white space, Lian Ge looked at the questions that emerged one after another, and kept answering them,
The theoretical concepts kept pouring out of his mouth, making Lian Ge feel like he was taking a pharmacology exam.
……
As time passed slowly, Lian Ge either talked eloquently, or just skipped a few words of nonsense, quickly answering the questions that kept emerging.
Finally, after a series of conceptual discussions,
Just like the previous "Mysterious Common Sense Assessment", another comprehensive application question appeared in front of Lian Ge.
"Question No. 30, comprehensive application questions."
"In the spring of the 28th year of the ancient Tang Dynasty, there was an evil spirit in Nanyang County. You stepped forward and tried to eradicate this evil spirit for the world, but your magic power was low. During the battle with this evil spirit, you were seriously injured and could only escape home... "
The system prompt sounded, and the environment around Lian Ge changed again.
Almost instantly, Lian Ge appeared in a small house,
"...There is a magic circle set up by your ancestors in Suo Xing's house, and you have also found a breakthrough opportunity in this battle between life and death. As long as you practice diligently, you can recover from your injuries and complete the breakthrough within a month."
Along with the continuous beeping of the system prompt, a memory about practice appeared in Lian Ge's mind.
But the system prompt sound did not stop.
"However, the evil spirit was also aware of your threat and wanted to kill you, so he told the people in the city, if you don't come out of the house, you will chop off hundreds of heads, feet, and hands every day. Drinking the blood of hundreds of people, and at the same time, let people publicize that you are a master of Taoism and can beat him, which attracts countless people to come to your courtyard every day to beg, howl...curse."
Accompanied by the system notification tone, one after another sound, penetrated the courtyard gate and courtyard wall in front of Lian Ge, entered the courtyard, and rang in Lian Ge's ear,
