Xiao Yiran, who had been immersed in the heat flow in his body running in the second vein of Ren Du, didn't know how long it took for him to wake up slowly, and he searched the cave hall, but he didn't find any trace of Xu Ying. Turning his head to look at Qingwen and Musk Yue, still sitting quietly with his eyes closed, Xiao Yiran did not disturb the two. I saw a note on the stone table, and when I picked it up, I saw that there were four lines of handwriting on it.

Invisible and insubstantial, a wisp of wind,

East, West, North and South,

Past and present lives are not asked,

Everything in the world has a spirit.

Xiao Yiran silently read it a few times, but he couldn't understand the meaning at all, so he could only put it away temporarily. I thought in my heart, this time I came to Kongtong Mountain, first, I wanted to visit the mountains and rivers, and secondly, I wanted to ask Sister Xu Ying, the mantra I taught to myself at the top of Huashan last time was from Xuannu Niangniang, I don't want to just come to Xu Ying's sister's cave, just because of the thousand-year-old stone milk and enter the realm of forgetting things and me. Hurriedly stood up and walked out of the cave, wanting to see if Sister Xu Ying had come outside. It's just that after Xiao Yiran walked out of the cave, he didn't see Xu Ying, only Xiao Qing who was waiting outside. Looking up at the sky, I saw that the sun had just set in the west, probably around the clock. I couldn't help but wonder.

"Xiao Qing, how long have we been in the cave mansion?"

"Miss, it's been a day and a night."

"How can it take so long? Have you seen Sister Xu Ying? ”

Xiao Qing shook his head and said:

"Yesterday evening, Sister Xu Ying came out and said to me that she wanted to stay here for the night, so that I could come here to pick up Miss from time to time today."

"Sister Xu Ying, did you say anything else?"

"Sister Xu Ying said that after this meeting, there will be no post-meeting."

"What?!"

Immediately, Xiao Qing took out the small bottle that Xu Ying gave him yesterday, the three pills in it, after Xiao Qing went back, he didn't take it immediately, and still stayed in the bottle. At the same time, I repeated what Xu Ying said yesterday to Xiao Yiran.

"How so?"

Xiao Yiran's doubts in his heart were even worse, and at this time, there were footsteps behind him, and Xiao Yiran turned to see that it was Qingwen and Musk Yue coming out of the cave.

"Miss, I feel that after a long time, why is the sun still hanging in the sky?"

Musk Moon asked, looking at the sky in confusion.

"It's been a day and a night, Sister Xu Ying has left, let's go down the mountain too."

Xiao Yiran only said this, then turned around and walked down the mountain. I knew in my heart that since Sister Xu Ying said this to Xiao Qing, it would be in vain to find it any longer. The group came to the inn at the foot of the mountain, and Xiao Yiran said to Xiao Qing and Xiaoxi:

"Since it's the elixir that Sister Xu Ying gave you, take it. We'll spend another night at the inn, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”

Xiao Yiran came to his room, took out the note left by Xu Ying's sister again, and pondered. I pondered and pondered, but I still found nothing. I always feel that Sister Xu Ying's note is talking about her life experience and origin, but I can't understand the meaning. It seems that these four lines of poetry by Sister Xu Ying are even more obscure than the ode left by Master Yuantong.

After a while, Qingwen and Musk Yue came to Xiao Yiran's room, and Xiao Yiran asked the two of them:

"How do you feel after drinking the stone milk?"

"It feels like a stream of heat swimming through the body. When Sister Xu Ying recited the mantra, the heat flow actively ran along the meridians of the front chest and back. At first, it was not obvious, but the later I went, the more I felt warm and comfortable. ”

Taking Qingwen's words, Musk Moon continued:

"yes, I'm worried I'm going to sleep comfortably. If I hadn't been reminding myself in my heart, I was afraid that I would really fall asleep. Who knows, nearly twelve hours have passed since this sitting. When I woke up, I felt refreshed. ”

Hearing that the two of them felt the same as himself, Xiao Yiran asked again:

"Do you still remember the mantra that Sister Xu Ying recited?"

Seeing that Qingwen and Musk Yue both nodded, Xiao Yiran instructed:

"In the future, if you have time, you will meditate according to the mantra and guide the heat flow in your body to run in the second vein of Rendu. Perseverance is bound to have unexpected benefits. ”

"Miss, could the mantra recited by Sister Xu Ying be a method of cultivation?"

"I guess so."

Regarding Qingwen's question, Xiao Yiran was not very sure.

"After practicing that mantra for a while, you will naturally know."

Naturally, Qingwen and Musk Yue also learned from Xiao Qing that they would never see Sister Xu Ying again in the future, and Musk Yue said quietly:

"If you can see Sister Xu Ying again, you can ask her the meaning of the mantra again. There are so many places that I don't understand yet. ”

"Didn't Sister Xu Ying say that how much you can comprehend depends on your own creation. Don't say that you will never see Sister Xu Ying again, even if you can see it, I am afraid that you will not tell us. ”

Qingwen's words, Xiao Yiran, who listened to it, nodded again and again.

"Seeing each other is fate, and how much you can comprehend is also your own fate, and you can rely on yourself as soon as you can."

"Miss, since Sister Xu Ying taught the three of us at the same time, does it mean that we also have some origins in our previous lives?"

Musk Moon usually doesn't talk much, but she likes to use her brain more than Qingwen. Her words made Qingwen look up at Xiao Yiran, and asked suspiciously:

"Is it possible?"

Xiao Yiran couldn't answer, although in his memories of his previous two lives, there was no fragment of Qingwen and Musk Yue, Xiao Yiran still felt that Musk Yue's words made some sense. After all, a person can't have only one life and two lives, and no one can say how many past lives there are.

In the gap between the two masters and two servants talking, Xiao Qing's family had already paid the pill sent by Xu Ying. There was no obvious reaction, but they slept for most of the hour, and when they woke up, they just felt refreshed.

After dinner, Xiao Yiran sat cross-legged on the bed, releasing Zheng Xinxin's soul, and the two were once again bathed in the golden light of the Buddha beads left by Master Yuantong. Xiao Yiran first followed the mantra taught by Xu Ying to guide the heat flow in the second vein of Ren Du and ran for a few weeks. After that, according to the mantra taught by Xu Ying and Xuannu Niangniang, he cultivated his soul. It wasn't until after midnight that he undressed and went to sleep.

In a trance, Xiao Yiran found himself in a valley with beautiful scenery, only to see the wide valley bottom, surrounded by trees, there was an open field, a tall poplar tree, standing luxuriantly by the clear stream. Xiao Yiran suddenly felt that his body was as light as nothing, like a wisp of breeze frolicking among the green leaves of the poplar tree. From time to time, the green leaves stir and make a loud noise, like a light laugh.

When he was tired of playing, Xiao Yiran lay down among the branches of the poplar tree to rest, sometimes looking up at the blue sky, sometimes looking at the two slender wildflowers in the rocks under the poplar tree, each gently swaying a red and a purple flower in the breeze.

Suddenly, the scenery in front of him changed, and it became dark, followed by lightning and thunder, and violent thunder, which woke Xiao Yiran from his sleep. He sat up from the bed suddenly, and vaguely remembered that in his sleep, the lightning only struck the tall poplar tree. Xiao Yiran felt that his heart ached for no reason.
