That afternoon, after Su Qing finished writing, Han came in to look for her, the two of them carried a basket, and unconsciously came to the place where the black mud was bubbling, and just found that there was a flower feather chicken trapped inside.

Seeing that someone was coming, this Hua Ling chicken struggled desperately, but it was getting deeper and deeper, Han Jin saw this, took out a small net, threw it over and lassoed the Hua Ling chicken, and pulled it hard, and dragged the desperately fluttering chicken to him.

The two of them skillfully disemboweled, took out the internal organs, washed them in the stream next to them, and then pasted the chicken with mud.

Su Qing grabbed Han Jin's rear collar and retreated a few feet, seeing that the fire was still spreading, the two of them immediately buried their heads in digging and covering it! It's easy to put out the fire, and the chicken has already burned to ashes!

Su Qing looked at Han Jin's burned half of his sleeve and thought; 'What is this, such a blazing fire!' I only heard Han Jin say indignantly; 'What the hell, it almost burned me, shhh Su Qing took his hand; 'What's up?' I saw a blister the size of a baby's fist on the wall of his hand!

After a toss, the two of them had no intention of wandering, and when they returned home, Su Qing carefully helped Han Jin clean the burns and said to him; Don't touch this blister, it will go down slowly, and then it will be fine. ’

After dinner, Su Qing copied the Sutra for an hour as usual, and after freshening up, she lay on the bed and took out the medical scripture she brought with her to read, in the past six months, she was used to reading it before going to bed every night, and gradually learned a lot of herbal knowledge.

I turned off the lights and was about to fall asleep when my brain suddenly flashed; The burning black mud during the day can't be oil!

After listening to the next morning, she didn't go home, went straight to the black mud ditch, carefully took a tuo and wrapped it in leaves and took it home, and put it in the stove a little bit when cooking, no need to look at the fire, it can be burned for a long time, but the temperature is too high, and the stir-fry is easy to paste.

Unconsciously, the sky gradually got colder, the valley was dry and yellow, Su Qing led a group of boys in front of him, went to harvest more than a dozen baskets of sweet potatoes, and took Han Jin to dig a few buckets of black mud, it shouldn't be too sad in winter!

When a light snow fell in the sky, Su Qing finally saw Yu Wei again, he gave Su Qing two cotton clothes, and told her a news; After a month, these disciples will go to the front mountain to stimulate the spiritual root, if it can't be stimulated, they will be sent down the mountain, and if the stimulation is successful, if they do not induce qi into the body within three months, they will also be sent out of the mountain.

On this day, after listening to the sermon, Su Qing did not go back, and went to find the preacher Senior Brother He, who lived in the cave behind the disciple's hall, Su Qing came to the door of the cave, and before he could make a sound, he heard a loud voice coming; 'Miss Su, come in! ’

Senior Brother He's cave is very simple, there is only a set of stone tables and four stone benches, but the place is very large, and it is empty, seeing Su Qing coming in, Senior Brother He pointed to a stone bench and said; 'Sit down. He got up and poured Su Qing a cup of tea.

Su Qing hurriedly took the teacup and said; "Brother Lao, I'm here today to ask him about something. Senior Brother He glanced at Su Qing and motioned for her to continue.

Su Qing put down the teacup and said; "Can you tell me about stimulating the spiritual root and how to become an immortal cultivator?" Senior Brother He nodded and said; 'To become an immortal cultivator, you must first have a spiritual root, some are born with a spiritual root, which can directly induce qi into the body to cultivate, most of these people can successfully induce qi into the body, but there is no one in ten thousand such people, and it is called an innate spiritual root.

Senior Brother He took a sip of tea and continued; There is also a way to stimulate the latent spiritual root after entering the innate realm of the unity of heaven and man through the study of the scriptures and enlightenment. ’

Su Qing was puzzled; 'What is a latent spiritual root?' 'Senior Brother He said; In fact, each person is born corresponding to one or more of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, but in addition to the innate spiritual root, which may lead qi into Xiu Xiu cultivation, there are some people with good understanding among ordinary people, and they can also pass through the realm of the Spiritual Realm of the Spiritual Table, and at this time, their potential spiritual roots can be stimulated by the Immortal Disk. ’

Su Qing nodded and asked; 'Can you cultivate by stimulating the spiritual root?' Senior Brother He shook his head and said; Not to mention the mortals who can stimulate the spiritual root the day after tomorrow, there is not one of the 100,000 people, and after the spiritual root is activated, half of them cannot successfully induce qi into the body. ’

'Oh, then why is there a disciple hall?' Su Qing asked with some frustration, this thing that stimulates the spiritual root seems to be very unreliable.

Senior Brother He sighed and said; 'You can't give up just because the odds are small, one of our Jade Yin Sect's founding patriarchs is the hidden spirit root, he is also the only advanced god cultivator in our Heavenly Desolate Continent, he passed down the Heavenly Dao Sutra, established a disciple hall, and left a glimmer of heaven for the hidden spirit root, the three sects and four sects, as well as the large and small immortal cultivation sect families, except for the Jade Yin Sect, the others only accept the disciples of the innate spirit root. ’

Su Qing felt that she really had a deep chance at this time, she already knew that she had no spiritual root, and if she had a spiritual root, Lu Pei would not send her here.

At this time, Senior Brother He said again; Even if there is a spiritual root, there are advantages and disadvantages, the best is the single spiritual root, the second is the double spiritual root, the third spiritual root is again, the fourth spiritual root, and the fifth spiritual root is the worst. ’

'Then senior brother, you are an innate spiritual root, right? How many spiritual roots are there? Su Qing asked in surprise. Senior Brother He stroked his silver-white beard and said; 'I am an innate four spirit root, I am ninety-eight years old this year, and there is no hope of advancement! After speaking, his expression was very depressed.

Su Qing asked cautiously; 'How high is that senior brother now?' 'Senior Brother He said; 'Fourth-order Qi refining, it's almost lifespan! ’

Su Qing asked in surprise; "Senior brother, you look very healthy and in good spirits, why can't you advance?" Senior Brother He looked at Su Qing, and his eyes flashed; 'Su Qing, do you enter the realm of the unity of heaven and man every time you listen to my preaching? ’

'Huh? Su Qing was stunned for a moment at this sudden question, she did enter a mysterious realm every time she heard the sermon.

She told Senior Brother He the truth, and Senior Brother He said after listening; 'You have entered the realm of the unity of heaven and man, as long as you activate the spiritual root and induce qi into the body within three months, you can cultivate. ’

Su Qing almost jumped up with joy when she heard this; 'Really? "Yes, I teach the Tao Sutra every day, but I can't understand it, and I can't get over it." Senior Brother He said with a gloomy expression.

'Senior brother, are you not in good agreement with the Heavenly Dao Sutra, why don't you try the Tao Te Ching?' Su Qing's brain was hot and blurted out.

Senior Brother He stood up and asked; 'What is the Tao Te Ching?' Su Qing was dumbfounded, why didn't he even know the Tao Te Ching, what a primitive society this should be, isn't that a Taoist classic?

Under the gaze of Senior Brother He, Su Qing silently read the eighty-one chapters of the Tao Te Ching, and then was driven out of the cave, and when he returned home, it was past noon.
