Three, eighty-seven, cultivation
Han Yiming said: "Are there anything that has never been painted?" Ding Wudao: "Those who have not been painted have not been able to be supported by me." At that time, I couldn't listen to them, I didn't know what they liked and hated, I couldn't take care of them, so I couldn't feed them, but it's a pity. Han Yiming said, "Senior brother, then, since when have you been able to hear them talk?"
Ding Wudao: "Oh, I don't remember this either." Senior Brother Feng and I, you still remember, what I told you is the senior brother who sends rice to me in the rice jar every day, Feng Yuzao. Although Han Yiming didn't remember the name of this senior brother, he still remembered that Ding Wu once said that as long as the rice jar was opened every day, there would be enough rice grain in the jar for everyone in the sect to eat for a day, no more, no less. He nodded and said, "I remember." Ding Wudao: "Senior Brother Feng has also planted a lot of vegetables that he has never heard of, he has many seeds, according to Senior Brother said that some of them were found by the ancestors when the Lingshan Mountain was built, and some were brought back by the brothers when they came down the mountain later. Senior Brother Feng planted some, but not much, he will graft the method, will always make some vegetables that I have never seen or heard of, and I have no time to come out one of them, I have nothing to do, so I asked Senior Brother for some and planted them myself. ”
It turned out that on the Ling Mountain, there was also a Senior Brother Feng who bowed his head and planted like Ding Wu. Ding Wudao: "Senior Brother Feng is different from me, he realized a lot of truths in the process of planting, and through his hands, he planted many strange flowers and plants on the Spirit Mountain. I, on the other hand, can only grow vegetables, and then I planted a Jiuxuan grass, which I heard was only available in ancient times. On the Ling Mountain, there are only two seeds, and when Senior Brother Feng handed them over to me, he said to me, if you can't plant them, they will be gone. I planted it in front of the door, very carefully. It sprouted, but after it sprouted, I could only fumble for watering. Junior brother, some dishes require a lot of water, and they are poured at different times. But I have grown vegetables that I have never seen before, and I have never heard of, so I have no way of knowing how to grow them. ”
Han Yiming thought that the flowers and trees on the Ling Mountain were all cultivated by Bai Ying, but after hearing Ding Wu say this, he realized that there was also a Senior Brother Feng who was also cultivating. Although he didn't know how strange these vegetables were, he also knew that they were planted in season, and the watering had to vary according to them. Ding Wudao: "The Nine Xuancao is very cold, and it needs to be watered nine times a day, and it doesn't need to be too much each time, but I don't know at all." Pour enough at once. Seeing that the Nine Xuancao was wilting like this, there was nothing he could do. Later, one night, a burst of hail fell on Lingshan......" Han Yiming said in surprise: "There is still hail in Lingshan?"
Ding Wudao: "Lingshan would not have hailed. That hailstone was made by a little girl, and it was very boring and messing around. It came to me to rain this hailstorm because it was here to smash the vegetables. I heard it, so I hurried out and came out with the quilt and covered it with the dish. I couldn't cover it, so I used a table and stool to put it on it, and finally it wasn't damaged a lot, and when it was enough to make trouble, I took back the quilt table and chair, and Jiu Xuancao spoke to me. This is really amazing, Han Yiming became more and more interested, and said, "Senior brother, what did it say to you?"
Ding Wudao: "It's it, it scolded me." Han Yiming smiled and said, "Did it scold you?" Ding Wudao: "Yes, it scolded me for being stupid, scolding me for not understanding anything, and causing it to die of drought when it was dry, and waterlogging when it was waterlogged." Anyway, after scolding for a while, I realized that it had to be watered nine times a day, according to what it said, go to water on time, and when it was enough, it would tell me. Han Yiming said: "Then why didn't it tell you before?" Ding Wudao: "I also asked it, and asked why it didn't say it before." It says it's said, but I can't hear it. Maybe I heard it by chance that night. Since then, the vegetables I grow have started talking to me. Sometimes when you squat down by the vegetable patch, you can hear them shouting and shouting, which is very lively. ”
Han Yiming had already understood at this time, and it was only after that that Ding Wu learned about the habits of these strange treasures, and he planted many vegetable seeds that others had never heard of or seen. Others can't grow because others don't have such intentions, and he uses his heart, so he hears the sound of these many vegetables, and plants them according to their preferences, how can he still not grow them?
I couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, what do they say to you?" Ding Wudao: "Sometimes they say what they want, sometimes they greet me, and more often they quarrel with each other." Han Yiming couldn't help laughing out loud, arguing with each other, it was hard to imagine a flower arguing with a bush of grass, let alone a cold eyebrow between them. But all this happened in front of Senior Brother Ding. Ding Wudao: "They are like children, arguing around, and if they get closer, they pull each other. Alas, there's really no way to take them. ”
Han Yiming said: "In this case, when Senior Brother Ding cooks, will he feel that he can't do it?" Ding Wu said: "That's not going to happen." I'm going to cut the food we eat when it's time to cut it. They also talk and quarrel, but when I go to cut them every day, the vegetables I want to eat that day are already grown and waiting in the field. For example, when I want to cut onions, they will all fight to tell me which ones can be cut and which ones can't. And every time he would tell me not to cut the roots, keep the roots, and they will grow again. They also know that they are vegetables, and they have to cut them when they grow to a certain extent. Therefore, when it is time to cut it, they will clamoring for me to cut it. ”
Ding Wu had a smile on his face, and when he talked about these treasures around him, his rough face also changed, but the joy that came out of his heart moved Han Yiming for no reason. After a pause, he said: "Fortunately, it's senior brother, if you change me, you won't be able to do this." Ding Wudao: "Senior brother, they are endless, you don't hurt their roots, cut off the ones that have grown, and new ones will grow." The ones that are cut off are like cutting off our hair, and they will not hurt their vitality. Han Yiming sighed slightly, Senior Brother Ding is really different, and his ideas are indeed simple. Perhaps only such a simple person can have such a simple idea. If it's someone else, you can't do it, let alone hear the voices of the vegetables, and you can't even grow them.
Picked up Ding Wu's painting shadow, opened it back, looked at a few pages, and then looked at it again, no longer as before, just words and pictures in his eyes, but saw the spiritual treasure, no wonder Senior Brother Ding treasured them like this, it was indeed extremely cute. Listening to these vegetables say their names and say their origins and preferences is really emotional. Senior Brother Ding has indeed attained the Tao by doing this.
