The crowd returned to the stone wall where the door was painted. Ding Qi did not walk down from the side path, but from the platform above, and staggered forward to stand firm. This posture wouldn't be very high if it was given a rating, but it felt like a swallow, after all, it was more than three meters tall.

Seeing that he took the lead, everyone almost didn't take the steps, and jumped down one after another, only Zhuang Mengzhou Shi Shiran still went around the stone path. Xian Hao covered his mouth and said: "I have the impression that Mr. Ding has always been very stable, but I didn't expect to be so naughty." ”

Ding Qi: "It feels so good, I really hope I can remember it!"

Shanny: "What are you two muttering?"

Shi Buquan: "Don't worry about other people's affairs...... Huh, this painting is so weird!"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "It doesn't seem to be painted. ”

Except for Zhuang Mengzhou, everyone didn't take the stone, what they saw was only the stone wall and the pattern of the door on it, and they couldn't see the backyard on the other side of the door. If scientists find such a stone wall on Mars, they will conclude that it is a trace left by intelligent beings, and it should be done by "aliens", but the question is - how to draw it?

The pattern of the door is not painted on the stone wall with pigment, nor is it carved, the blue-gray stone wall, the brown-red lines, look carefully at these lines are actually the natural lines in the stone! How can the natural lines in the stone just form this pattern, and there is even a couplet and the inscription of Zhu Jingyi, the demon king of the south gate, which is obviously impossible.

Tan Hanchuan muttered, "Could this be the legendary refining supernatural power? Such a big stone wall!"

Ding Qi: "Even the small realm lake in the world of Fang Wai Immortal Family, of course, there is nothing impossible for someone to make such a stone wall." ”

Zhu Shan sighed: "We are self-proclaimed masters of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes, and when we visit today, we know that we are frogs at the bottom of the well." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou smiled and said, "It's not anymore...... Let's take out the stones, and when you see the backyard, take a picture of the door, and see if it's a stone wall or a backyard?"

Five people came in with mobile phones, three of them still had electricity on their mobile phones, took out the stone to enter the country, saw the backyard of Zhu Shanxian's house in front of him, picked up the mobile phone and took a photo. When I opened the photo album in my phone again, I saw that there was no backyard in the photo, only a stone wall.

Shanny: "What's going on?"

Shi Buquan: "If you have any questions, look for Teacher Ding." ”

Ding Qi smiled bitterly: "The mobile phone does not look at the physical environment, this is a phenomenon of human consciousness, and I can only explain so much." ”

Zhu Shanxian: "Mr. Ye is looking at it over there, let's go out quickly!"

Before passing through the portal, Ding Qi glanced back at the Xiaojing Lake at sunrise, full of nostalgia, it was really beautiful, although he knew that he could come in again, but after experiencing so much this night, he couldn't remember it anymore.

Eight mermaids walked out of the portal, and the small gazebo was almost crowded. Ye Xing greeted him and let out a long breath and said, "You guys have finally come out!"

Seeing that everyone looked at each other again, their expressions were a little trance-like, Zhu Shanxian patted his head and said, "We have already gone in just now?...... Oh, it should be like this, Sister Shannie is all right!"

Originally, it was discussed that only Zhuang Mengzhou would keep this memory, but after everyone came out, of course, they even forgot about it, so they stared at each other at a loss. Shannie is fine, but they don't know that Ding Qi also had an accident, and then he was cured again, because the whole process happened in the small realm lake.

Ye Xing was stunned: "Why are you all amnesia?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "They all have amnesia, only I remember." ”

Ye Xing: "What did you do to them?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "I didn't do anything!"

Fan Yang shouted: "I don't believe it! We all have amnesia, how can you remember, Mengren?"

Shang Ni also shouted, "I don't believe it either!, Mr. Zhuang, are you deceiving us?"

It's a little hard to explain. Zhuang Mengzhou had to explain: "Everyone is very busy, so they all put down the stone, leaving me, an idler, to hold the stone for a long time, and retain this memory, which also confirms Mr. Ding's previous judgment." ”

Shi Buquan: "Idler, if you want to say idle, it should also be Senior Brother Zhu, and he only has an idle word in his name." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Senior Brother Zhu is the busiest, you see that he is tired, and everyone has lost weight!" Then he straightened his face and said, "Do you know what good things you have done? I know everything!"

Everyone knew what they had done, and they were all in a daze, and Shi Buquan shouted again: "This is not right! How can we let Mr. Zhuang keep his memories alone? How can we also leave two people to corroborate each other." Otherwise, when everyone comes out, won't you be what you say?"

Zhuang Mengzhou laughed and said: "Yes, only I know what you did, of course I have the final say." ”

Shanny: "It's not fair, what have we done ourselves, how can you have the final say?"

Zhuang Meng spread his hands on Monday: "That can't be helped, that's the case." Hurry up and have breakfast, I've been hungry all day, and I should go to work after eating. When I get back from work in the evening, everyone is here, and I'll tell you about the night in detail. ”

Xian Hao: "It's strange, I'm not hungry at all. ”

Not only was she not hungry, but everyone said they weren't hungry. Ye Xing wondered, "What are you stealing in there?"

Zhuang Mengzhou nodded and said, "It's normal not to be hungry, everyone is taking drugs collectively inside." ”

Ye Xing: "Drugs, do you mean moon condensation?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Yes, it's the moon condensation." Mr. Ye, it's time for you to take medicine. ”

Ye Xing: "What medicine do I take, can you also bring me a copy?"

Zhuang Mengzhou shook his head and said, "I mean you should take cold medicine." ”

Ye Xing: "When did I catch a cold?" Before the words fell, he sneezed several times in a row.

Ye Xing did catch a cold. Although the weather is not cold in June, it is still a little chilly at night at the foot of the mountain. Of course, he couldn't sleep at night, so he sat in the gazebo and waited, and when he couldn't sit still, he paced back and forth in the courtyard. I wore less clothes, and my body was stained with the dew of the early morning, and I caught a cold.

When he returned to the house and finished breakfast, Ye Xing began to have a fever. Fortunately, there are ready-made antipyretics, Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and now he has boiled Chinese medicine for him to drink, so he doesn't need to add soil. But the medicine prescribed by Tan Hanchuan was for Shang Ni, which was not too symptomatic, and the kind-hearted Shi Buquan went out to buy cold medicine again.

It's just a cold, it's not a big problem, Ye Xing, Zhu Shanxian, and Fan Yang all went to work one after another, and Shi Buquan also rushed to the library of Jinghu University. Shang Ni said, "Mr. Zhuang, what happened in Xiaojing Lake?

Zhuang Mengzhou was really able to calm down, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'll talk slowly when everyone gathers in the evening-you all did those good things!" said with a yawn, "I'm tired, I have to go back and sleep well." ”

Ding Qi said to Shang Ni: "If it is really like what Mr. Zhuang said, only if he is in a state of mind holding Jingwen Stone, in fact, he is the most tired, and he should have a good rest." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou didn't even eat breakfast and went back to the hotel, he was not in a hurry, but the others had no bottom in their hearts. Listening to Zhuang Mengzhou's tone, it seemed that everyone had done something in Xiaojing Lake, so he felt strange in his heart during the whole day, and even a little uneasy inexplicably.

Ding Qi only went to the hospital in the afternoon, and took a shower in the guest bathroom on the second floor in the morning. There is only a bathtub in the bathroom in the master bedroom, and only a shower in the guest bathroom outside. When he took a shower, Ding Qi felt that his skin was very tender, as if it still had a faint fragrance, it smelled very good! He wondered a little, could it be the smell of shampoo or soap, who bought it?

As the water rushed through his body, he inexplicably thought that if he was lying in a pool made of large white and jade-like stones, with water outlets up and down the pool, which could be filled with natural spring water, and lie in it and let the spring soak his body and flow slowly, then it would feel cool......

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Ding Qi felt refreshed and energetic, and did not feel tired at all, it is estimated that he had a good rest in Xiaojing Lake last night. He cleaned all the dirty clothes he had accumulated for a week with his hands, and then took them to the next yard to dry, and happened to meet Xian Hao who also came to dry the clothes.

There are daily chores at home, such as washing and drying clothes, where are so many people's clothes hanging, just hang them in the backyard of Ding Qi's small building, and there is a door in the two courtyards. On sunny days, they build a penny, and on rainy days, they hang under the porch that sticks out from the back of the hall.

Xian Hao was a little embarrassed, she was drying the girl's underwear, but she didn't avoid it, nodded lightly and greeted a little shyly: "Come to dry the clothes too?" Why didn't you go downstairs to use the washing machine, you can wash them together." ”

Of course, Zhu Shanxian will not put two washing machines in the small building, only in the guest bathroom downstairs, Xian Hao was washing clothes there just now. The large clothes were machine washed, and the close-fitting underwear was washed by hand, and they were washed and brought out to dry, but Ding Qi was not seen going downstairs to use the washing machine. Ding Qi smiled: "I just took a shower, and I rubbed my hands." ”

Xian Hao: "Teacher Ding is really diligent and capable!"

It's not like there's nothing to say. Coming out of Xiaojing Lake, although he didn't remember what happened, the feeling between the two was inexplicably closer, and there was an indescribable change, which made Ding Qi even more curious. In fact, it was not only him who was curious, but also other people, including Xian Hao.

Finally stayed up until dinner time, Zhuang Mengzhou came, Zhu Shanxian, Fan Yang, and Ye Xing also arrived after work, Ye Xing Road was far from the traffic jam, and everyone waited for him, and the meal was only started at about eight o'clock. Ye Xing took cold medicine, a little dizzy, and still had a low-grade fever, but he insisted on rushing to attend, his nasal congestion was more serious, and he took a whole pack of tissues and kept wiping his nose.

Ye Xing wiped his nose and urged: "Zhuang ...... Mr. Zhuang, when the people are here, you can hurry up!"

Fan Yang also urged: "Hurry up, you have suffocated us all for a day." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou smiled: "I can't hold it back?" I said that you peed your pants in Xiaojing Lake, do you believe it?"

Fan Yang: "Cut, of course I don't believe it!"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Actually, it's not you, it's Teacher Ding who almost didn't hold back, but fortunately he didn't pee his pants." ”

Ding Qi hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't believe it either!"

Zhuang Meng shrugged his shoulders on Monday: "Since you don't believe it, what do you want me to say?"

Zhu Shanxian poured Zhuang Mengzhou a glass of wine and said, "Mr. Zhuang, you drink a glass of wine first! Whether they believe it or not, you say yours." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou picked up the wine glass and began to tell about last night's experience, which sounded plain, but after careful consideration, it was very thrilling. There are many details that Zhuang Mengzhou doesn't know, such as the smearing of medicine in the house, the inner activities of some people, etc., which can only be imagined and experienced by himself.

Comparing the photos on everyone's mobile phones, Zhuang Mengzhou described everyone's visit to the manor. Xian Hao suddenly took out his tablet and said: "I was writing an ancient story, there was a manor in the story, and a lot of scenes popped up in my head at that time, so I simply drew a rendering." Mr. Zhuang, look, is this the pattern of that manor?"

Zhuang Mengzhou took the tablet and glanced at it, nodded and said: "Yes, this is the pattern, you even outlined the lotus pond, the small lake, the verandah, and the painting boat, I remember it very clearly." ”

This is a schematic plan that depicts the general layout of a house, and everyone has also taken a tablet to see it. Xian Hao shook his head again and said, "I don't remember, it's just that when I was thinking about it, I seemed to have these things in my mind." How to describe it, it's like a dream that I had a long time ago and has forgotten. ”

Ding Qi nodded and said, "Seeing the picture you draw, I also feel familiar." It's a kind of re-consciousness reconstruction, and although we can't remember what happened, it seems that there are still impressions in the subconscious. ”

Ye Xing said worriedly: "Teacher Ding also fell ill after he went in, so I ...... now"

Tan Hanchuan: "You didn't go in again! What are you worried about? It's just a cold." ”

Whether everyone believes what Zhuang Mengzhou said or not, only he knows what happened, so he can only listen to him. After Zhuang Mengzhou finished speaking, he looked at Ding Qi again and said, "Teacher Ding, my door confirms your previous judgment. Being able to enter and exit the Xiaojing Lake freely is probably beyond the contemplation realm you summarized earlier, right?"

Ding Qi nodded and said, "Yes, I have already experienced the realm above the contemplation realm, which can be called the subtle realm. ”

The contemplation of the body realm that he realized earlier was actually only aimed at how to discover the small realm lake, and with Jing Wenshi as a guide, he could put his mind in and out freely and retain his memory, which was beyond the contemplation of the body. Or borrowing the name of the secret art of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes, he called this state of mind and body the subtle realm.

Why is it called the Micro Realm? The name is not a random one, it is inspired by the secret introduction of the micro-technique, but it is different from the micro-technique.

Tan Hanchuan sighed: "Teacher Ding's cultivation of the contemplation of the body has been completed, and this secret method you created by yourself has now been cultivated to a higher level, and has reached the subtle realm from the contemplation of the body. So has Mr. Ding summed up this secret tradition?"

Ding Qi was ashamed and said, "It's still a little close." ”

Zhuang Mengzhou nodded and said: "This is also a normal phenomenon, sometimes I have cultivated myself, but I may not be able to teach others, and it is much more difficult to leave and inherit my own cultivation." ”

Fan Yang interjected: "We all have the foundation of cultivating various secret arts, so it is not difficult to reach the subtle realm that Teacher Ding said. But it is too troublesome to always hold a stone back and forth. For example, I've already gone in twice, but I haven't remembered it at all! Since Master Ding can create a secret method by himself, then when he reaches a higher level of cultivation, won't he need to hold a stone?"

Ding Qi: "Thank you Mr. Fan for reminding me, I think so too." If this is the so-called cultivation, if it is a level higher than the subtle realm, we don't always need to hold that stone, we can come and go freely and retain our memories. ”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Oh, interesting! So what did Mr. Ding name for that heavy realm?"

Ding Qi: "I think it's best to call it 'Hidden Realm'. It can be Mount Emei, or it can be that piece of Jingwen stone. Cultivation has really reached the point where it no longer needs to be held in your hand, it is invisible. ”

Shang Ni was very interested and said, "How should I cultivate?"

Ding Qi smiled bitterly: "I just had an idea, and I haven't reached that level yet, and I won't know until I finish practicing." ”

Zhu Shan smiled and said, "It seems that the names of the eight secret sects of the rivers and lakes will be borrowed by Teacher Ding sooner or later." He patted Ding Qi on the shoulder again and said, "You have the final say on the method you created." ”
