29. Crossing the Heart
When Guiyuan opened his eyes, he saw the familiar old house beams, and there was a small spider web that he had pierced before, and the spider that had been driven away by himself had now crawled back and continued to weave the broken spider web. He was covered with a familiar half-old green-bottomed sprinkled quilt, Gui Yuan sat up, feeling as if there was something wrong there, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Just when Guiyuan was thinking wildly, his grandfather's voice came from outside the house, "Yuan'er, my good aunt, get up and have breakfast!" ”
Ha, it's grandpa, Gui Yuan heard his grandfather's voice and immediately lifted the futon, jumped out of bed, turned around and folded the futon neatly, placed it on the inside of the bed, and threw the little question from before to the clouds. Why doesn't it seem right? My wrist was bitten by the little beast with the white rabbit head and fox body before, and the little beast got into my wrist later, will there be anything wrong with me in the future?
"Yuan'er~ Why hasn't it come out yet? Grandpa made you your favorite pumpkin porridge and vegetarian stuffed buns, and if you don't come out, they will be cold! ”
"It's okay, grandpa, I'm coming out!"
Eh, forget it, grandpa made my favorite pumpkin porridge and vegetarian stuffed buns, I'd better pack up and go out quickly, don't let grandpa wait for a long time. Thinking like this, Guiyuan no longer bothered with those small problems, quickly put on his dress, ran out of the house, and washed his face casually with a bucket of cold water in the well on the east wall of the courtyard, why does he feel a little weird today?
"Yuan'er, my good nan, I have wronged you, eat more." Grandpa said and handed over a steaming vegetarian bun.
"Grandpa, Yuan'er is not aggrieved. Grandpa, you eat more, too! Guiyuan also sandwiched a vegetarian stuffed bun into his grandfather's bowl, and he was also a little strange why his grandfather said that he was wronged.
"Huh! It's all grandpa useless, it hurts our family's young age, so we have to go to the endless forest to pick sunsets for grandpa, if it weren't for grandpa, you wouldn't have to suffer those crimes, this time it's really thanks to Xuanguang Sect's Shui Wen real person who passed by the endless forest, and happened to save you who was almost killed by the power of building the foundation, or grandpa really didn't dare to think that there would be no you in the days to come, how would grandpa live alone! As he spoke, Grandpa hurriedly raised his hands like withered branches and wiped the tears from his cloudy eyes.
"Grandpa~ I," Gui Yuan looked at the scene in front of him and suddenly couldn't stand it, tears like a flood bursting the embankment, rushing out of his eyes, how do I feel that grandpa seems to be much older?
"Grandpa~ I miss you so much." Guiyuan choked up and finished saying this, and realized that something was wrong, why did I say that?
"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! My good yuan'er, grandpa will never let you alone in the future, okay, don't think about it anymore, go to the back well and wash it again, see you cry, grandpa is about to be drowned by your tears and snot. ”
"Grandpa~! You're laughing at people! Gui Yuan said abruptly.
"Hehehe, our family's Yuan'er is about to become a big girl, and her face has become thinner, so she won't let me, an old man, joke. Hahahaha...... This time, this pumpkin porridge is really cold, and grandpa will serve you a bowl of hot again. Hurry up and wash your face. ”
Guiyuan was so ashamed of his grandfather's joke that he almost got under the table, and quickly turned around and ran to the well behind him to draw water and clean his face. Suddenly, he remembered something and hurriedly turned around and said, "Grandpa, I'll serve it myself, don't move when you sit, I'll wait to help you serve a bowl of hot one." ”
"Good! Good, good! Our family Yuan'er has really grown up to become a big girl, and we all know that I feel sorry for my grandfather, hehehehe, oops! It seems that I can't wait a few years, and grandpa will have to find a mother-in-law for our family's good aunt. ”
"Grandpa! ~ I'm not going to get married, I'm a person who wants to cultivate into an immortal, and when the time comes, I'll take my grandfather to become an immortal together, and I'll be by my grandfather's side forever! Gui Yuan stomped his feet, half shy, half determined.
"Okay, it's great that our grandmother has such lofty ambitions, but if you become an immortal, you also need a Taoist couple, and you can often come back to see your grandfather when you get married, right?"
"Grandpa! What are you always thinking about marrying me off? You think I'm annoying you by your side, don't you? Gui Yuan quickly washed his face as he spoke, refilled two bowls of hot pumpkin porridge, brought them to the table, and replaced the two bowls of cold pumpkin porridge on the table, and then sat back in his place and continued to eat.
"Hahaha, how come, don't say it, don't say it, eat quickly, when you're done, let's go to the market to see if there is any suitable exercise for you to practice, this time the Shui Wen who saved you can be said, if you can pass the test of recruiting disciples in the Xuanguang Sect in three years, I will directly accept you as an apprentice."
"No, Shui Wen is a good person! Grandpa, I'm actually pretty good at practicing your exercises, isn't this all a layer of Qi refining, so you don't need to buy a new one, right? Those spirit stones are still grandpa, you keep them for cultivation in the future, and use them well. Oh, by the way, grandpa, how did I get back? Why am I not impressed at all? "Guiyuan always felt that he had forgotten something particularly important and sad.
"Naturally, Shui Wen sent you back, and he also healed his injuries for his grandfather, you see, isn't grandpa doing well now? How else can we make delicious pumpkin porridge and vegetarian buns for our grandmother? Grandpa paused for a moment, then continued,
"Ah Nan, do you want to practice Grandpa's yellow-level lower-level exercises? Do you want to be like your grandfather and you can't build a foundation at your grandfather's age? Yuan'er is good, go to the market with grandpa to find a good practice that suits you, our Yuan'er is a rare thunder and fire twin spirit root, you are a rare qualification among tens of millions of people, God is pitiful, Yuan'er, you have such a good qualification but no good cultivation conditions and environment, grandpa is really sorry for you, but our family Yuan'er is very sensible when he was a child, and he is also very competitive, only nine years old he successfully introduced qi into the body, and he refined qi at the age of eleven. Grandpa didn't let you live in a place with plenty of aura, it's useless grandpa, the aura on the periphery of this Yulin Fang is already thin, and if you don't find a good exercise, Yuan'er, if you want to break through to the second layer of qi refining within a year, the difficulty will soar in the day! At that time, how will you compete with those monks who have participated in the entrance test of the Xuanguang Sect? ”
You must know that the higher the level of exercises, you can absorb the spiritual power during the week of meditation, and retain more spiritual energy in the body, so as to improve your cultivation faster.
If ordinary people want to cultivate, first of all, you have to have a spiritual root, and only when you have a spiritual root can you communicate with the Heavenly Dao and attract spiritual energy into the muscles and veins in your body. However, as for this spiritual root, the more the better, on the contrary, the higher the singleness and purity of your spiritual root, the better, so the general nature of the spiritual root can determine how far you can go on the road of cultivating immortals in the future.
Of course, this does not exclude the exception of individual people with amazing luck, such as some monks whose spiritual roots are mottled and mixed, because their own luck is deep and amazing, and they can also achieve success.
Generally speaking, the more pure the spiritual root, the more spiritual energy you can absorb and retain when you meditate and cultivate. The more spiritual roots there are, the more mottled and mixed the monks are, the less spiritual energy they can absorb and retain when practicing meditation.
When monks practice meditation to let the spiritual energy run in the tendons and veins, there are also specific methods and routes, and these special factors are determined by the exercises practiced by the monks, so good exercises have a great impact on the accumulation of spiritual energy when the monks practice on weekdays, as well as the speed of progress in the future.
To sum up, that's why Grandpa Guiyuan is particularly persistent about whether Guiyuan can have a good book of exercises.
"Grandpa is not going to go with Yuan'er, Yuan'er can't enter the Xuanguang Sect, grandpa, it's the same if you enter!" Gui Yuan looked firm and said unrelentingly.
"Silly boy! Grandpa's qualifications are poor, and he is old again, Xuanguang Sect, as the first sect in the Xuanguang Continent, has extremely strict requirements for the qualifications and age of recruiting disciples, grandpa is afraid that he will not be able to go in this life, and now he is counting on you! Ahh Therefore, having a good exercise can make your cultivation improve greatly in the past three years, and it will also be beneficial to the test and competition when you sign up for the Xuanguang Sect to recruit disciples, so you will have to work hard to cultivate from now on! Grandpa made a look of coaxing a child, and said patiently to Guiyuan with a kind smile.
"Oh well! Yuan'er listens to his grandfather, and he will definitely work hard to cultivate from the beginning to the future, and successfully pass the test and competition of recruiting disciples from the Xuanguang Sect! When Yuan'er enters the Xuanguang Sect and cultivates, he will definitely come back to pick up his grandfather to cultivate together! "Grandpa said so, I don't follow it, it's too ignorant.
"Good, good, good! Hahaha, my good nan, grandpa will wait for that day anyway! ”
"Finished eating, Ann? Let's go out then. ”
"Well, I'm done eating, grandpa! It's better to wait for me to clean up the dishes and chopsticks before leaving, grandpa. ”
"No need, it's not too late to come back and clean up."
"Okay, then let's go, grandpa!"
Guiyuan went out of the courtyard of the old house with his grandfather, because outside this old house was a narrow alley, which could only accommodate one person, so Guiyuan at this moment was walking behind his grandfather.
Just when their grandfather and grandson were about to turn around and walk out of the narrow alley, they met the neighbor uncle who was about to come back, that was the neighbor uncle Li Guang, who had always been good friends with their grandfather and grandson. Although this uncle usually likes to tell stories to Guiyuan, the protagonist in the story will always be him, he himself will always be a hermit power, mana to the sky, countless magic weapons and spiritual weapons, sitting on the world's beautiful monks or something, and so on self-comforting, self-deception of legendary stories. But in addition, he is also a very warm-hearted good neighbor uncle, because he often brings some worldly gadgets and snacks to Guiyuan, so he gradually became familiar with each other.
Although Guiyuan is not big, he is not a child who doesn't know anything, and he knows that this neighbor uncle actually just wants to brag about himself and talk nonsense. After all, he is almost past the age of not being confused, but he is still a third-level Qi refining monk, and he doesn't even have a storage bag, so I'm afraid that there is no hope of building a foundation in this life. (In fact, most of the people living in the old houses outside this Yulin Fang are poor and destitute cultivators who have no power, no power, and no wealth, and even many ordinary people who can't cultivate.) And only when she is not too old or too young to understand what he is saying, and who does not laugh at the people who ridicule him.
This Uncle Li Guangda looked extremely nervous for some reason today, and he hurriedly bumped into the two grandfathers and grandsons of Guiyuan who were about to go out of the narrow alley, and at the same time a book suddenly fell out of his arms that he didn't know if it was made of materials.
Who knew that Uncle Li, who had always had a good relationship with them on weekdays, didn't even say a word of thanks, ignored Guiyuan's greeting, quickly took the strange book and stuffed it back into his arms, and just said in a low voice: "Borrowed." When Guiyuan and their grandfather and grandson walked out of the narrow alley to make way out, they hurriedly passed by Guiyuan's grandfather and grandson and left.
Gui Yuan was wondering what was going on with Uncle Li today, when he suddenly heard his grandfather say excitedly, "Okay, let's not buy the exercises today." Let's go back! ”
"Okay, Yuan'er listens to grandpa." Guiyuan is even stranger now, what's going on today, Uncle Li is so strange, grandpa is also so strange, it was clear that grandpa had to buy exercises for himself before, why did he suddenly decide not to buy it today? Forget it, what do you want to do so much, it's better not to buy it in the future, and save all the spirit stones for grandpa's cultivation.
After that, Guiyuan followed his grandfather and turned around and entered the narrow alley, and returned to the courtyard of his old house.
Suspicious, he watched his grandfather enter his own room with high spirits, and closed the door tightly, Guiyuan had to clean up the dishes and chopsticks that he had eaten pumpkin porridge and vegetarian buns before, brush the pot, wash the steamer, wash the clothes, and finally returned to his house with a suspicious mind.
In a blink of an eye, the sky darkened, and Guiyuan and Grandpa had dinner early in the unitary hour, and after washing, they went back to their own rooms.
At three o'clock, Guiyuan, who should have been asleep for a long time, was still tossing and turning in bed at this time, and it was difficult to sleep. Suddenly, Gui Yuan heard a slight movement in his ears. It seems to be the sound of the door opening from the grandfather's house, what is the matter with the grandfather still coming out of the room so late? Grandpa doesn't feel uncomfortable, does he? It's a little weird to look at grandpa today.
Thinking like this, Gui Yuan hurriedly got up from the bed, put on his clothes haphazardly, and quickly pushed open the door and went out to find his grandfather, but Gui Yuan didn't see his grandfather in the courtyard, and he didn't see his figure in his grandfather's house, and the courtyard door outside was still locked.
What's going on? Did Grandpa sneak out over the wall? Where else can you go so late? Wrong! Suddenly, Guiyuan somehow, there has been a voice in his head saying, open the courtyard door and go out to Uncle Li's house!
Then Guiyuan opened the locked courtyard door uncontrollably, turned left and went to Uncle Li Guangda's house at the other end of the narrow alley. However, after returning to the Yuan for a while, he arrived at Uncle Li Guang's house, only to see that the door of his courtyard was closed, and the courtyard was also blinded by black lights.
Just when Gui Yuan was thinking in horror about why he suddenly opened the courtyard door without his control at night and ran to Uncle Li Guangda's house, the sound of furniture toppling and fighting suddenly came from the courtyard of Uncle Li Guangda's courtyard, followed by the sound of quarrels.
This is not the most terrifying, what is even more terrifying is that Gui Yuan heard his grandfather's voice in it! Wrong! There must be something wrong with this! With a strong belief, Guiyuan found a puppy hole outside the wall of Uncle Li Guangda's courtyard that he had found before, this dog hole has been covered by a clump of weeds, even Uncle Li Guangda himself has never found it, and he only found this place by chance because he often comes to Uncle Li Guangda's house, and he hid it as his little secret at that time, and no one said anything.
Now Gui Yuan is planning to go in and explore the reality in person.
"Lin Yun love! I can't believe you're such a person! I want to kill people and take treasures! Fortunately, I had an extra heart after I bumped into you during the day, and set a simple ban outside the door, reminding me that I don't want you to really come, if I hadn't been alert, I'm afraid that I would have been your sword now! ”
Guiyuan didn't even have a head out of the dog hole, he heard Uncle Li's grief and indignation, and was shocked by the content of his words on the spot, Guiyuan looked out carefully through the weeds, and saw Uncle Li's body facing him obliquely, and his grandfather was standing opposite Uncle Li with a sword at the moment.
They were nervously confronting each other at this time, as if they hadn't noticed Guiyuan peeping in the dog hole at the foot of the courtyard wall.
"Since you know that I will come, you should honestly hand over the Heavenly Rank Exercise Returning Recipe during the day now, instead of talking nonsense here, save me and do it myself! Don't worry, I'll keep you a whole corpse for the sake of your kindness to Yuan'er on weekdays! ”
Gui Yuan saw that his grandfather had not finished speaking, and he had already quickly raised his sword to stab Uncle Li Guangda, who had not had time to react, and Guiyuan didn't see how his grandfather made his sword moves, so Uncle Li Guangda also seemed to have lost his vitality under this sword, standing there as if he wanted to say something, but his throat was able to gurgle and foam blood, and after a while, Uncle Li Guangda, who was not blind, fell straight to the ground with a bang, startling a burst of dust.
This thrilling scene made Gui Yuan dumbfounded, and he subconsciously shook his head, no! No! No! The grandfather in my memory is not like this, the grandfather in my memory will always call me Yuan'er Nan with a grand smile, and has always taught me how to treat people and things kindly, and it is absolutely impossible to do this kind of murder and treasure grabbing! Especially the object of this treasure grabbing is Uncle Li Guangda, who has always been good friends with us!
Right! My grandfather would never kill people and grab treasures by any means for the sake of a mere heaven-level exercise! My grandfather wasn't that kind of person at all! Even if it's for me, it's absolutely impossible! This man is certainly not my grandfather! This qiē is not right!
Suddenly, Guiyuan's mind seemed to have opened a door, and the memories of the past turned into pictures one after another, and they rushed out of that door.
Yes, this qiē is all fake, grandpa is long gone, and he has already entered the Xuanguang Sect, the clothes are wrong, it should be his favorite white-background gold-rimmed robe, and he is now a foundation building monk, and Guiyuan, who understands it, secretly swears in his heart that when he forms a golden pill and can fly over the black sand river full of gangwinds, he will definitely return to Yulinfang to avenge his grandfather!
Guiyuan, who suddenly woke up from the demons in his heart, retreated from his sea of consciousness, and his five senses and six senses, which were forced to be closed, were also reopened.
Huh? That's not right! What is this place? How did you end up here? Why is there so much resentment here?
