Walking past the twenty-fifth statue, there is also a stone niche next to the mountain wall, and in the stone niche stands an irregular stone pillar two feet square and more than one person high. Cui Shanhai introduced with some shame: "This is the statue I built for my master, and I have always felt that my cultivation is not enough, so it has not been completed so far." ”

Tan Hanchuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, take your time." You can't fool yourself by fooling anyone, and you need to be diligent in your cultivation, but you can't be reluctant. ”

There are many stone niches and connected corridors excavated here by taking advantage of the natural terrain, and it can even be named Xiangshuifeng Grottoes. They walked to the deepest part of the cliff front, where there was a semicircular open hall with an altar in the center. There is no statue on the altar, and there are several big characters engraved on the natural mountain rock behind - the position of the ancestor of Yanhuang Huaxu.

Hua Xu can indeed be respected as the ancestor of Yan and Huang, until now China's country name is still "Hua", and the descendants of Yan and Huang are called Chinese, this Hua is the Hua of Hua Xu.

At this moment, Zhuang Mengzhou took the initiative to step forward and bow to the position of Hua Xu, and everyone also bowed and bowed. There are also incense burners and incense sticks on the shrine, and after bowing, everyone worships incense in turn.

The incense burner is a gilded copper furnace of the Ming Dynasty, which is extremely exquisite, and the stone is not complete and has been seen several times. After bowing and burning incense, Shang Ni muttered in a low voice: "Mr. Zhuang is right just now, donkey friends can also become pilgrims, don't we all worship incense." ”

Walking through the stone niche in the middle, there are stone rooms dug on the mountain wall on the other side, the outdoor stone wall is a small courtyard, and the mountain spring is a three-fold pond in the courtyard, and the back room is hollowed out of the mountain to form. The location of these chambers is very irregular, and it is obvious that natural caverns are used to save the amount of work.

Cui Shanhai introduced: "This is the place where the masters and heirs of Xiangshui Peak have cultivated, especially in the Song Dynasty, there were nearly 100 people living here at one time, but after the Ming Dynasty, there are fewer and fewer people who live outside the world for a long time. Now we don't live here for a long time, just like the story told by Mr. Zhuang, this Xiangshui Peak is like the Iron Tile Temple, we only come to stay for a few days occasionally.

In modern times, there are not many ancient relics here, so you can feel free to visit and rest before having dinner...... Master Ding, can you take advantage of this time to speak, I want to ask for advice in private?"

Ding Qi: "Okay, find a place to sit." ”

Cui Shanhai led Ding Qi to a stone room, where there were stone couches, stone tables, stone benches, stone chairs, and stone screens, all of which could not be moved or moved, because they were directly chiseled out of the overall mountain rock. The only thing that can be moved in the room is a wooden cupboard and a tea tray on a stone table.

Cui Shanhai took out the tea leaves from the cabinet and put them in two cups, took a kettle and went to the spring pool outside to catch a pot of water, and after sitting down, he closed his eyes with the handle of the kettle in the air, and he didn't know what he was doing. But Ding Qi could see that he was performing the exercises, so he waited quietly and did not disturb.

After a while, heat came out of the small eyes of the lid of the pot, and then there was a gurgling sound in the pot, and when the sound of water became quieter, the water boiled out of thin air. Cui Shanhai opened his eyes and said, "It's ugly, please use tea!"

Ding Qi patted his thigh and said, "Hey, it turns out that you are boiling water! Why bother so much, don't you just have to make a fire? If you think it's troublesome to make a fire, we also brought camping heating agent and a simple self-heating small hot pot ......."

Cui Shanhai: "And these things?." ”

Ding Qi: "A must-have field suit for travelers, you don't need to make an open fire in the mountains and forests, and now you can buy it online." ”

Cui Shanhai: "What's the matter with the self-heating small hot pot, you don't need to make a fire, and you don't need to boil water?"

Ding Qi: "Internet celebrity small hot pot, haven't you heard of it? It's a small box stuck on top of a big box, and everything you eat is put in a small box." There is a sealed plastic bag with a non-woven bag, take out the non-woven bag and put it in a big box, mix it with some cold water, automatically heat the water to boil, and steam the contents of the small box above, which can continue to steam for 15 minutes. ”

Cui Shanhai: "It's really creative, now as long as there is demand, any product can be provided." ”

Ding Qi: "By the way, Cui Gong, you are engaged in scientific research, I would like to ask, what is the principle of that, and what materials are used to process it?"

Cui Shanhai smiled: "Although I don't know how the specific product is made, I also know that there are many ways to implement it theoretically, and the principles are not complicated." For example, the plasters sold in pharmacies now have automatic hot compresses, not only in science and science, but also in middle school, you should have read chemistry, let me give you a few of the simplest examples.

First of all, it is more dangerous, and the violent reaction of sodium metal with water will release a large amount of heat energy. As for other substances that generate heat when exposed to water reactions or water dissolving, that's too many......

Ding Qi: "When you say this, I think about it all, the principle is really not complicated, but it can be processed into a safe and simple camping product, that is creativity." I also want to ask, you boiled the water with the kettle, where did the energy come from?"

Cui Shanhai: "You should also feel the cultivation realm of the master of the Ding Academy, right? The secret method of our cultivation, which the ancients called supernatural powers, is actually a way to transform and use energy......

Ding Qi: "I haven't thought about these things in particular, listening to your words today is better than reading for ten years! No, no, no, no, it should be said that it is better to practice for ten years...... Come, tea!"

Cui Shanhai: "The master of the Ding Courtyard is too modest, your cultivation is much better than mine!"

Ding Qi: "No, no, no, you must not say that, I haven't practiced the kung fu of boiling water just now, so I sigh to myself!"

According to the evaluation of Mr. Zhuang and others, Ding Qi's cultivation of the secret method outside the square is a method of direct cultivation of the mind, regardless of the rest, and the so-called mana is also available, but it is only used to explore and discover the unknown of the world on weekdays. Ding Qi did not "delve" into many of the supernatural spells described in the book, and his purpose was not to do so.

Cui Shanhai showed his hand just now and boiled a pot of water out of thin air, which is already quite a remarkable effort. Tan Hanchuan, who also cultivates the Fire Gate Furnace Ding Technique, has this ability, I guess he has it, but he has never revealed it. These masters around Ding Qi, except for Shi Buquan, who is a little in love, no one else likes to show off all kinds of stunts.

This may be because I have been with Ding Qi for a long time, and I have been affected by Ding Qi's state of mind by following him to practice the secret method outside the square, and it is more likely that these tricks of the eight descendants of the rivers and lakes are never used to show off.

With Ding Qi's current cultivation power, if you think about these with your heart, you can probably figure it out. But Tinzi's energy was never used for boiling water, because it could have been achieved by other simpler means.

After taking a sip of tea, Cui Shanhai reacted and said, "Oh, I have something to ask the master of Ding Academy, why did you talk about the Internet celebrity hot pot?"

Ding Qi: "I'm sorry, I just deviated from the topic, Master Cui Feng has something to say." When he spoke, he secretly said in his heart that Xu had been in contact with Mr. Zhuang for a long time, and he was unconsciously brought out of a problem, that is, the topic always deviated when chatting.

Cui Shanhai: "The flow of information that you just transmitted directly to my consciousness should be the legendary divine thought, right?"

Ding Qi: "Cui Gongzhen can poke words, it is indeed a divine thought." ”

Cui Shanhai sighed with emotion: "I finally saw it today! But I still have a question, you haven't drunk bamboo wine, although I introduced bamboo wine in the confidential information in Xiangshui Peak, but I didn't say too specific." Bamboo wine is an elixir to my Xiangshui Peak descendant, this is a secret that will not be passed on, how do you know?"

Ding Qi replied, "It's just a little deduction, you have given me enough information to come to this conclusion." ”

As he spoke, he sent a divine thought, introducing his own deduction and judgment process. One of the most important conclusions he came to based on various information is that bamboo wine can make ordinary people have sweet dreams, and they can see what they think in their dreams, or that it is not a dream in the real sense, but only the hallucinogenic effect left by bamboo wine after the toxicity of dream flowers is resolved.

This is true for ordinary people, but for the descendants of Xiangshui Peak, it is a means to assist in cultivating the concept of thought. If ordinary people recall a specific character image from decades ago, it is certainly impossible to present it in complete detail. This requires mental concentration in a state of concentration that stimulates specific subconscious messages, such as seeing the Guru in front of you.

As for whether the master seen is an absolutely accurate reproduction of the true image, it is not necessarily. That's what the visualizer knows in the depths of his subconscious, and he can even visualize all the details – just think about it.

In Ding Qi's view, the effect of bamboo wine can create an effect similar to delusion, of course, it cannot be a real delusion, and there are essential differences.

The delusional realm is a kind of cultivation achievement, and the opportunity for diligence after the completion of the cultivation of the five realms. Delusion is different from dreams, and it is also different from the psychedelic experience or visualization experience created by bamboo wine, for the person in it, everything experienced is no different from the reality, sometimes they are not aware of it, and it will consume longevity.

Bamboo wine can make people have beautiful dreams that they want to make, if they keep their spirits clear and focus on what they are contemplating, it is also an elixir to assist in cultivation, which can help refine the gods and may hurt the spirits, depending on how to use it. Ding Qi also speculated that when the cultivation of the Five Realms was completed, bamboo wine might also be a means to assist in entering the delusional realm.

Each lineage has its own characteristics, which are related to the internal logical and speculative system of the secret method. For example, in the cultivation of the secret method outside the square, Ding Qi has already experienced the means of entering the delusion realm, which is to directly enter a non-existent outside world constructed in the primordial spirit.

Then the descendants of Xiangshui Peak can one day also use bamboo wine to enter the delusion they visualize. The premise for this to be able to do this is that the cultivation of the Five Realms is complete, and whether or not it can be broken is another matter.

But about the speculation of entering the delusional realm, Ding Qi did not say much to Cui Shanhai. Because the delusion situation does not say or ask, if it is too clear, it will be misleading, making Cui Shanhai think that what should be done at that time, which is the so-called obstacle of seeing and knowing. Ding Qi came to such a conclusion from so much fragmentary information, not only related to the process of reasoning, but also related to his cultivation realm.

Cui Shanhai was stunned for a few minutes with the teacup, and then he let out a sigh of relief and said, "I see! To be honest, I was taken aback by you just now, and now I realize that I have a lot of heart." I'm sorry, thank you for your honesty, and thank you for your advice!"

Ding Qi smiled faintly: "You didn't say anything, you just muttered twice in your heart, why apologize? I know how you feel, your own secret has been revealed, and anyone will have suspicions, this is my mouth." ”

Cui Shanhai: "No, no, no, I want to thank you for saying more, otherwise there would be no opportunity to ask for advice." ”

Ding Qi: "Don't dare to ask for advice, communicate with each other, what else does Lord Cui Feng want to ask?"

Cui Shanhai: "Lao Tan and Mr. Zhuang both said, how to open Xiangshui Peak more securely, let me ask you carefully." ”

Ding Qi: "So that's it, it's actually simple!" said and sent another divine thought.

Ye Zongqing had already reminded Cui Shanhai when he was having lunch, don't easily show the treasure of the world of control, let alone let people know that he carries the treasure of the world control with him on weekdays. In fact, Cui Shanhai himself can not lead the way at all today, he can come to Xiangshui Peak in advance and open the door when the guests arrive.

The second thing to note is that Xiangshui Peak must have a central core to prohibit guests from setting foot in. This area is easy to delineate, and that's where they are now. Visiting this main peak, tourists can set foot in the area until the lake called Shanglongtan, and they can no longer drill holes to climb to this area where there is a statue of the patriarch and a stone chamber for cultivation.

Ding Qi saw through many of the inheritance secrets of Xiangshui Peak here, and other masters might be able to see through it. There is also a purpose for this purpose, that is, not to let outsiders know how many people are in Xiangshui Peak.

Therefore, there must be at least three people at each time the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm is opened: the first person is responsible for bringing visitors to the portal, but he himself does not come in, but only stays outside to answer. The second person is equivalent to a tour guide, leading the guests to visit Xiangshui Peak. As for the third person, he generally does not show up, and stays in the core area that is not open to the public, just in case, and also makes visitors with ulterior motives dare not act rashly.

As for how these three people are distributed, it depends on Xiang Shuifeng's own arrangements. In a word, don't let people see all the details of Xiangshui Peak at a glance, and don't let people know how many people are in Xiangshui Peak. This is how Ding Qi arranged the opening of the Jinshan Academy, and now he has told Cui Shanhai all his experience.

Cui Shanhai groaned: "For example, today, I will give an example...... The little demon went to the tin water cave to bring you to the door, if Shui Ruo took the treasure of the control world to open the door in Xiangshui Peak, she could stay here and not show up, and I will take you to visit Xiangshui Peak, and the little demon will stay outside to observe and respond. ”

Ding Qi nodded and said, "It can be arranged like this." ”

Cui Shanhai said with a bitter face: "But there are too few people in our Xiangshui Peak, if we go back and forth like this, these three people always take turns to show up, and others can still see the details." ”

Ding Qi: "If it's convenient to say, can you ask, how many people are in Xiangshui Peak now?"

Cui Shanhai: "Except for me, Shui Ruo, and Xiao Xi, there is only one little demon." Xiaoxi is definitely not suitable, I didn't bring her here today, then there will only be three people who can come forward. ”

Ding Qi: "In this way, there are indeed fewer people. In fact, it doesn't take too much, as long as a few more people show up, so that people can know that there may be your people in the secret realm of Xiangshui Peak, as for whether it is true or false, that is another matter. If I really can't, I can lend you a few people to help, as long as you can trust it. ”

Cui Shanhai: "Then thank you for your help, of course I can trust the organizer of the Ding Academy!"

Ding Qi: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, our people came to help you, and you have to be paid." ”

Cui Shanhai: "Of course! I open Xiangshui Peak for people to visit, and each person charges 100,000 yuan each time, how can the staff not be paid...... By the way, how do you calculate the Jinshan Academy?"

Ding Qi: "Actually, it's very simple, it's counted as three staff members at a time. Whoever holds the treasure of the world will receive a subsidy of 200,000 yuan each time, and the other two will each receive a subsidy of 100,000 yuan each time. The person I lent you can't hold the Realm Control Treasure of Xiangshui Peak, so let's just take 100,000 per person each time. As for how to distribute the rest of the money, that's your own business. ”

Cui Shanhai got up and said: "Toast you tea first, and then toast you a few glasses of wine later! Your idea is too good, and the help is too great! It's a pity that you can't drink more bamboo wine, I'll cut a few more bamboos with wine on the spot, and let's drink a few more cups of unprocessed ordinary bamboo wine." ”

Ding Qi: "Let's go out first, they probably should be in a hurry." If Lord Cui Feng has anything else, you can communicate with me at any time. ”

Cui Shanhai thanked him again and again, which made Ding Qi embarrassed. Ding Qi first gave Cui Shanhai advice, and then took the opportunity to say that he could send someone to help, which was a mutually beneficial decision. The people of Fang Waimen, especially a few disciples of Ding Qi, will not only be able to go to Xiangshui Peak for free to experience in the future, but also earn money! 100,000 yuan each time, this "part-time part-time job" is higher than the income of most formal jobs.

PS: It's too late, sorry! I have something to do today, so take a leave of absence, and continue tomorrow (23rd).
