Lin Yan Lanqi said: "Senior brother, do immortal cultivators also want to cultivate fields and grow vegetables?"

Gu Feng said with a smile: "Although we cultivate immortals, after all, we are not immortals, so naturally we also eat whole grains, but we eat less than ordinary people." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lin Yanlan nodded as if she didn't understand.

Gu Feng nodded and said, "Senior brother come with me." ”

Lin Yanlan walked with him with a puzzled face, only to find that the pastoral field was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and on the other side was a cliff, and under the cliff was a very wide stream that flowed far beyond the mountain, crisscrossing the fields, repairing many waterways, intertwined into a net.

On the side of the cliff is simply built a pergola, one side of the pergola is repaired with a sheep intestine path, spiraling to the stream below, on the other side is a well, the diameter of the well is more than two zhang huge, far beyond the ordinary wells several times, Lin Yanlan leaned over to see, the water surface in the well is at least five or six zhang away from the wellhead, the well water is clear, I don't know how deep, the probe looks, only to feel a refreshing cool air from the well, indescribably comfortable.

"Senior Brother Lin," Gu Feng led Lin Yanlan under the pergola and said, "This is the homework you have to do every day in the future." ”

Lin Yanlan looked into the pergola and saw that the upper and lower three layers of platforms were built with stones in the shed. There are dozens of buckets in three rows neatly arranged on it, each drain bucket is divided into two sizes, the large one is five feet in diameter, the small one is three feet in diameter, there is an iron frame on one side, and dozens of iron locks with a length of several zhang and the thickness of a thumb are hung on it, and there is nothing else.

Lin Yanlan looked at the buckets, the bottom row, were dozens of wooden barrels, the edges of the barrels were very thick, obviously the wood used was very heavy, I was afraid that each one would weigh no less than dozens of catties, and after being filled with water, I was afraid that it would be one or two times heavier, and I couldn't help but secretly stick out my tongue.

When I saw the second row, I couldn't help but be shocked, these buckets were actually made of stones, not to mention that they were used to get water, only this bucket, I didn't practice for a year and a half, even if I wanted to pick it up, it was a fool's dream.

When he looked at the third row again, Lin Yanlan was directly stupid, it was a row of buckets made of pure iron, seeing this time, Lin Yanlan simply didn't have any thoughts, and a voice in his heart said straightly: "Is this work done by a human being......?"

Lin Yanlan had already made up her mind to go for a while, but she was no longer worried in her heart, and asked Gu Fengdao: "Senior brother, do I want to use this well water to water the vegetable garden every day?"

Gu Feng said with a smile: "Your foundation is not stable, and you can't do this thing of taking water to water the garden now." “

Lin Yanlan saw that the edge of the well was flat and smooth, and there was nothing to rely on, so he turned his head to look at the buckets, and then at the chains made of pure iron, and secretly thought that he would have to be dragged down by using these things to draw water from a deep well of five or six zhang.

I wondered in my heart, but I didn't dare to guess anymore.

Gu Feng stretched out his hand to lift a small wooden bucket, pointed to the stream under the mountain in the distance, and said, "What I have to do every day is to carry the bucket, go to the stream to get water, and then carry it back and pour it into this well." “

Lin Yanlan suddenly said: "How long do I have to do it?"

"You start with the smallest barrel, and when you have more strength, you change to a larger barrel, and when you have more strength, you change to a small stone barrel...... Step by step, when you can carry a large iron bucket in each hand and get water ten times a day in half a day, you don't have to go down the mountain to get water, but take water from the well to water the garden. “

Then, Gu Feng told Lin Yanlan the difference between the two.

"Taking water from a stream, like boiling soup over a soft fire, is to take time as a fire, temper the muscles and bones, and become self-made over time, while taking water from an iron chain to water the garden is like forging a sword with fierce fire, emphasizing that the momentum is not slightly reduced, and the qi is not slightly broken, and it is done in one go. When you can carry a large iron bucket in each hand to get water, it is no longer difficult to get water from the well, but the difficulty is that you have to carry a hundred buckets of water in a single breath in half a day. “

"By the way, I'm talking about a hundred large iron buckets. “

Although Lin Yanlan was already desperate when he saw those buckets, after listening to what Gu Feng said, he still couldn't stop despairing again, his mouth half open, stunned.

Originally, Lin Yanlan could still accept this way of doing coolies to exercise his muscles and bones, after all, Murong Yu had taught him from time to time the principles of diligent limbs and healthy grains. Just after listening to Gu Feng's words, he was completely stupid, this is not ordinary hard work.

Gu Feng saw his expression, and he was not surprised, and continued to explain: "We cultivators are indispensable for cultivating the true yuan inside and cultivating the muscles and bones outside. For example, some of the Dao methods are strong and uncast, but if the caster's physique is not strong and the true element is not thick, they will not be able to exert the power in the Dao Law, or they will be reluctantly issued, and they will not be able to last, while some of the Dao methods emphasize flexibility and longevity, and they can be long-lasting, but they will inevitably lose their strength and let the enemy take advantage of them. “

"It's hard to have a way to have both worlds. We are waiting for the cultivation of immortals to seek the Tao, and we must not be greedy and hope for the realm of 'strong and long-lasting', but it is always necessary to strengthen the muscles and bones, can you understand, junior brother?"

Lin Yanlan said sneeringly: "Senior brother, I understand, but ...... Can I really do it?"

Gu Feng patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Little Senior Brother, what do you think of Senior Sister Gai and Senior Sister Weak Water?"

Lin Yanlanqi said, "Have they done these too?"

"Every first-time disciple has to do it. “

Lin Yanlan was puzzled: "But they look ......"

Lin Yanlan wanted to say that they were jade girls and pavilions, and they didn't see how strong they were, even if the weak water was stubborn, they didn't seem to have much strength to do these jobs;

But these words, he was not easy to say, so he had to look at Gu Feng blankly and smile.

Although Lin Yanlan didn't say it, Gu Feng knew it in his heart, and said: "Little junior brother, whether you go down the mountain to get water or water the garden with well water, I will only give you half a day, do you know what the truth is?"

Lin Yanlan thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I don't know." “

Gu Feng said: "All things are born in nature, people are primates, and the human body also contains the way of heaven. The big instrument of the Tao is heaven and earth, the small instrument of the Tao is the human body, the five organs in our body, each should be the number of the five elements, the number of yin and yang, and the same as the sky, therefore, the mortal body contains the primitive power of the wilderness, not to say that it is this small lesson in front of you, that is, the power of opening mountains and cracking stones, turning rivers and seas, I am afraid that there are also people, but most people do not know it. “

When Lin Yanlan heard this for the first time, she felt very fresh and listened to it with relish.

Gu Feng continued: "For cultivators like us, whether they are decent or sideways, although the ways of cultivating the methods are different, the principles are similar, and they all use their different methods to excavate and stimulate the primordial and pure power hidden in the human body. Not only humans, but also birds and animals. “

"But man is the primate, and the wisdom is far superior to the other, so he is the master. However, it is precisely because human beings are too intelligent and have too many distracting thoughts, which are far less pure than the temperament of other categories, so although most of the people who have glimpsed the path of cultivation are human beings, but when they really reach the extreme, human beings are often inferior to other races. “

Lin Yanlan listened to it in her ears, and was infinitely fascinated, and asked: "Can birds and beasts also cultivate the Tao and become immortals?"

Gu Feng sighed: "It's not just that you can! If you don't take it, how can it be that people are unique to you? People are just taking advantage of their clever minds." But as I just said, human beings have a complex mind, and they have long violated the natural law of heaven and earth, but those low-level birds and beasts and the like, have a pure heart, the law is everywhere, and they are born and die naturally, and a very small number of them are far superior to human beings when they get a glimpse of the way by chance, such as many desolate alien species, even if human beings cultivate for a lifetime, how can they reach it?"

When Lin Yanlan heard this, he suddenly remembered Gai Tianjiao's demeanor of not eating fireworks on the Void Spirit Platform, and at this time he faintly understood that perhaps, she was cultivating a Dao method similar to "returning to the basics", extinguishing the mind and mind, and making people's minds return to the empty like birds and beasts.

Thinking of this, Lin Yanlan suddenly realized, and repeated Gu Feng's words: "Don't take it...... In this way, when it comes to cultivating, human beings are superior to the broad and the best is lost, and the genus of birds and beasts is the opposite, right?"

Gu Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right. The genus of birds and beasts is longer than the bones and bones, and shorter than the intellect, and the opposite is true for humans. The reason why I want you to spend half a day doing this homework every day is because no matter how strong your muscles and bones are, they will eventually run out, and the remaining half day is not only for you to have a good rest, but also for you to use to practice the exercises. If it weren't for both internal and external cultivation, and from time to time, with the strength of a few bones, how many people would be able to do these things?"

Lin Yanlan suddenly realized at this time and said, "I see, I understand." ”

Gu Feng nodded, handed the small wooden bucket in his hand to him and said, "Little junior brother, you just went up the mountain, at first, pick up ten buckets of water every day." ”

Lin Yanlan stretched out his right hand to catch the bucket, Gu Feng was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Little junior brother, you have to hold it steady." ”

As he spoke, he let go of his hand.

Lin Yanlan saw that the wooden bucket was not very big, and Gu Feng had no trouble holding it in his hand, so he didn't care too much, and as soon as Gu Feng let go, he suddenly felt that his hand sank, and the bucket was very heavy, and secretly said that it was not good, and it was too late to reach out his left hand to pick it up.

Not only did the barrel not be lifted, but he was dragged to the ground.

Gu Feng saw that although Lin Yanlan was young, he was very smart, but he was afraid that he would not be calm enough and commit a taboo in cultivation, so he deliberately let him suffer some small losses.

Seeing him fall to the ground, he picked him up, Lin Yanlan rubbed his knees and stood up with a grin.
