The scabbard was buried in the soil for many years, and after taking it out, the surface was already rotten and could no longer be used. There was nothing to say that night, and the next day he went to the old shop dealing in antiques and ordered three things: a high-end antique short scabbard; A sword holster made of fine bronzing pattern old leather can be put in the sheath and hung around the waist; A handicraft collection appraisal certificate can be regarded as a forged "ID card" for the sword, which cost thousands in total.

Why do you want to get such a "certificate", this thing belongs to the control of knives, it is very inconvenient to carry, and the nosy police found out that there is a danger of confiscation, it is not difficult to get on the train, but if you want to take a plane, there is basically no possibility of bringing it. But there is always a loophole in the law, if it is usually carried as an antique collectible, it can be flown in a special package, and it can also be checked in with baggage.

In the next few days, You Fang was very "busy", but in the eyes of outsiders, this guy was completely idle, not going to school or looking for a job during the day, but wandering around Yanjing City. Liu Li's cheats make it clear that the entry to spiritual consciousness should be in a place where the earth's qi and various objects change, and at the same time achieve the state of "containing but not developing, and feeling as encountered", and gradually practice from the place of induction peace to intensity.

The first stop you choose is Panjiayuan, where the atmosphere is relatively peaceful, but the largest antique market in China is extremely cluttered, and if you want to distinguish clearly when you wander here, the sensitivity of the sense of perception and the use of subtleties are extremely demanding, as if trying to hear every sound that reaches your ears in a noisy vegetable market. It is very difficult to exercise spiritual sense here, but the danger is not too great, and you must be cautious and solid in the subtlety, and you are also familiar with the way.

The acquaintances of Panjiayuan were a little puzzled when they saw You Fang again-how did the little wanderer change into a person? I saw that his face was peaceful, his posture was upright, his eyes were not squinting, and he walked calmly in the bustling crowd, looking not like he was visiting Panjiayuan, but like walking in a park. As everyone knows, at this time, You Fang is more focused than the Taobao people who are carefully looking at the objects around him, and he curses in his heart as he walks - why are there so many fakes? There are not many things that can trigger the spiritual sense and produce obvious senses!

At this time, the efficiency of Taobao is also on a higher level, and the spirit has a sense of encounter, and then squint to confirm it, basically you can find the real thing, most of them are some damaged antiquities, and the store puts them in front of the door to attract the eye. He is not dead-eyed, and occasionally when he finds a good opportunity, he will stop and do some private work, after all, he has to make money to live.

After four days of wandering around Panjiayuan, You Fang felt like a fish in water - he was a little wanderer in Panjiayuan. In fact, his foundation is very solid, and the breakthrough of the inner kung fu realm is of great help to the use and control of spiritual sense. He was fully introduced to the use of psionic sense, and his senses were particularly keen, and he mastered the subtleties as much as a veteran who had practiced them for many years, which of course had something to do with his previous experiences.

The only drawback is that his spiritual sense is not strong enough, and the fire is not strong enough, which is something that cannot be forced and requires long-term training.

At the beginning of next week, Panjiayuan closed the market, and you mixed with Chinese and foreign tourists to "visit" the major scenic spots and historic sites in Yanjing, such as the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Ming Tombs, and the Summer Palace...... Whether you have been there before or not, now when you walk around, the feeling is very different, and it can even be described as breathtaking! You Fang did not easily activate the spiritual sense to disturb and control the aura in the environment, but tried to experience the natural induction as much as possible in the state of implication but not emitting.

The most exaggerated situation appeared in the Temple of Heaven, it was noon one day, You Fang came to the mound after a long sacrificial road, that is, the ancient sacrificial platform, Haoran's powerful aura formed a diffuse coercion, and it felt like struggling to walk through the viscous and abnormal air, and it was very difficult to move through it. Stepping on the "Tianxin Stone" in the middle of the mound, the sense of oppression in the spiritual sense made the whole person solidify, standing there and unable to move, the feeling of the five senses was blurred, as if everything around him was far away.

Someone next to him spoke to him in a foreign language that he didn't understand, thinking that he wanted to get out of the way and take pictures. You Fang smiled slightly, slowly completely converged and closed the spiritual sense, no longer had the slightest induction, and turned around and said, "Scratch Rui!" "Walk down the mound like a normal tourist, cross the Danbi Bridge and head towards the Hall of Prayer.

Liu Li made it clear in the cheats that having spiritual sense is not the same as mastering spiritual awareness, as long as you don't act rashly in various environments, you can be like ordinary people who are not troubled by it, and the heat is considered home. Otherwise, it's better to have nothing, and sooner or later it will hurt the original spirit, but it is worse than normal people. After returning from the Temple of Heaven, You Fang knew that he had completely mastered the use of spiritual consciousness, and as for further refining and cultivation of higher realms, he was still in a hurry.

It was on this night that he took the sword to Yuyuantan.

After nine o'clock in the evening, the idlers on the edge of Yuyuan Lake gradually became scarce, and the surroundings were quiet. It was a clear night, and there was a half-curved moon in the sky, and a cool breeze was blowing, but it was gentle and not even wrinkled on the surface of the water, and the waterhole reflected the moonlight like a mirror. You Fang sat quietly in the shadow of a big tree by the edge of the pool, motionless, not to mention that there was no one around, even if there were people, they would unconsciously stay away from this shadow, because the yin qi under the tree was very heavy, and it was still slowly converging.

Water can gather yin and return to yang, and the water edge at night is often the heaviest yin. There is also a difference between pure and mixed earth qi, and the better the feng shui aura, the purer the earth qi is. On the one hand, you Fang chose Yuyuantan because it is convenient to go back and forth from home, and the situation here is also familiar, and on the other hand, because the feng shui aura here is good, and it is within the scope of his control.

After nightfall, You Fang unfolded his spiritual sense, slowly disturbing, moving, and controlling the pure yin qi in the Yuyuan Pond to converge in front of him. waited until about midnight, when the yin qi was at its peak, and You Fang opened the yellow silk and took out the short sword.

The short blade let out a soft groan, through the moonlight reflected on the water surface, You Fang saw its true face for the first time, the sword body is about more than twenty centimeters long, there is no obvious sword spine in the middle, the arc between the sword body and the tip of the blade is very smooth, faintly emitting a sharp silver luster, revealing obvious evil qi, but the surface is covered with a layer of mist like tears - this is the characteristic of being sealed by yin qi and condensing vitality.

There is wrong gold handwriting on the sword, and the delicate and beautiful bird seal inscription - Qin Yu. You Fang said to himself in his heart: "It turns out that you have a name, your name is Qin Yu." His expression was not like facing a cold ancient sword, but like communicating with a spirit being.

The pure yin qi in the condensation environment of the You Fang surrounds this sword, and the time happens to be at the time of the day when the yin is at its peak and the yang is born, which is the birth of heaven and earth and one yang. With the slow and faint recovery of the yang qi between heaven and earth, You Fang activated his spiritual sense at the same time, and the vitality and agility around him were slowly injected into the sword, without adding a trace of it, which needed to be controlled quite subtlely, otherwise the sword cultivation could not achieve the best effect.

For this sword, the most vigorous source of vitality in the surrounding environment is of course not the grass and trees, but the living person of You Fang. You Fang is also equivalent to "repairing" this sword by operating its own vitality, and communicating through spiritual sense at all times, it is like gently appeasing with a pair of invisible hands, and always dissolving the evil qi in the sword. Of course, this is not to counteract the evil qi in the sword and erase its spiritual surname, but to let his spiritual sense and the spiritual surname of the sword have a strange communication and resonance, so that he can control and use its spiritual surname.

An hour passed, and the yang energy between heaven and earth gradually vomited, and the tear-like mist on the sword seemed to fade a lot, revealing a luster like a pool of water reflecting the moonlight. The fire is almost over, and at this end today, this sword cannot be cultivated overnight.

You Fang slowly retracted his spiritual sense, no longer operating the surrounding yin qi and vitality, still calming and communicating with the spirit surname in the sword, and it seemed that he heard the sound of low chanting and shallow singing in his spiritual sense. Looking up, a layer of white mist rose on the water surface of Yuyuan Pond at some point, You Fang held his sword and concentrated, and suddenly saw the mist rising and converging into a slender figure, gradually clear from the haze, it was the woman he had seen in the dream of Cangzhou Lotus Garden.

At this moment, her image has changed, her dress is no longer wet and sticking to her body, but is slightly fluttering like mist, her face like a white jade sculpture has a hint of vitality, and the luster in her eyes is also a little real, very cold, but when she looks at You Fang, it adds a touch of softness. She stood barefoot on the mirror-like surface of the lake, but there was no reflection in the lake, like a cold and glamorous elf in the night.

Of course, there will not really be such a person in the Yuyuan Pond, and others can't see it, what you see in front of you is an illusion refracted by the "heart image", if the mind is addicted to it, it is a demon realm, and if you can understand its subtlety, it is a kind of view. You Fang whispered in the depths of his soul: "Qin Yu, it won't take a few days for me to cultivate you." ”

The word "cultivation" flashed in his mind, and there were some inexplicable indecent associations, and he came out of the concentration, and the vision disappeared and it was still a large pool of fog shrouded in water.

You Fang put the sword into the prepared new scabbard, wrapped it in yellow silk, inserted the sword holster and hung it around his waist, and buried the original scabbard in a wooden box under this tree. After doing all this, he didn't leave immediately, he still sat under the tree to nourish his spirit, and nourished his soul with the aura of heaven and earth that was born before dawn. After the introduction of spiritual awareness, I finally understood a lot of doorways, at least I don't have to always play the role of a rice bucket, if I completely rely on the five grains absorbed in my body to consume, no one can stand it.

When the morning glow rose, You Fang opened his eyes, and the Yuyuan Pond in the morning light was slightly spitting out and the clear waves were shallow, and there were already early rising old people playing Tai Chi not far away. Gazing at the water and recalling the image of the woman he saw in the illusion last night, for some reason, his thoughts drifted far away, recalling what he heard when he first met Mr. Wu Pingdong.

It was a year and a half ago when we met in Panjiayuan, and Wu Lao said at the time: "The true value of cultural relics is first of all given to it by the creators and inheritors of civilization, not anything else." Then he asked, "Can you explain why such an object existed at such an era?" Can it elicit a deep spiritual resonance in your heart and convey that resonance to people? ”

You Fang later realized that Wu Lao was actually asking him what the "antique dealer" was playing. But at this moment, I have another layer of insight, which is related to last night's "sword raising".

The lifeless ancient sword naturally could not be a woman, but in You Fang's magic realm and viewing realm, it was transformed into the image of a certain woman, for no other reason, this image was given to it by You Fang himself, and it was related to his thoughts and experiences. However, after You Fang gave this image of the ancient sword in his heart, and then in the process of spiritual sense, "she" became a part of the sword, which was very bizarre but not completely illusory for You Fang, and this image had been integrated into the spirit surname that the ancient sword could communicate and resonate with.

Wu Lao may not know the way of raising swords, but his words contain the same philosophy, which goes beyond the pure professional field. Liu Li's secret book only teaches the method of raising a sword, but what life insights in the specific process can only belong to personal things, and there is no way to teach, and You Fang's perception comes from Wu Lao's teachings.

You Fang raised his sword in Yuyuantan for three nights, and on the third day, when he collected the sword and returned it to the sheath, the east was already the beginning of the sunset. At this point, the first step of the fire is almost over, and this sword has regained the vitality that has been stagnant for thousands of years, and there will be no more rapid decay. But on the other hand, it is still very fragile and cannot withstand the impact of too strong yang energy, otherwise it will hurt the spirit surname, like a newborn baby who has just come into the world.

Next, continue to raise the sword, Yuyuantan is not very suitable, although the yin qi here is pure in the middle of the night, the vitality around it is not too vigorous. The season is the end of August and the beginning of September, from summer to autumn, the Mid-Autumn Festival of the four seasons belongs to gold, and the main anger is introverted, condensed, and collected. The five elements of the ancient sword are also gold, and it is quite appropriate to raise a sword in this season, but it is not easy to find the vitality and purity, after all, it is not the spring when all things grow.

From the fourth day, you changed places and chose the Zizhu Courtyard next to the West Third Ring Road, where there is a water surface, the earth is clear and not gloomy, and it is surrounded by large bamboo forests on all sides. Bamboo is one of the three friends of the cold year, autumn and winter are not completely withered, its own surname is introverted and rising, upward jointing and no branches, the ground atmosphere here is the most suitable, and it is within the range that you can control. Zizhuyuan was not too far from his residence, about three stops to the north.

PS: About the update and release of this book

It's already the end of the month, and it's a new month in a blink of an eye, and many enthusiastic book lovers ask when the book will be on the shelves? My plan is to hit the shelves in April, but not in the first few days of the month. First of all, because the current free public version of the book "Earth Master" does not have too many words, and I am not too embarrassed to compete for the monthly ticket list of new books on the first day of the month, so I still try to send a few more chapters of the public version.

There is another reason, my little Xu Gongzi will be born in early April, but maybe it will be some day, I have been very busy during this time, almost hitting the back of the head with my foot. The content of the novel is in my heart, but I really can't squeeze out too much time to fall on the keyboard, if something is delayed when it is put on the shelf, some readers may not be satisfied, so it is postponed for a few days. At that time, if there are a few days of updates that are not normal, please understand.

Old book friends who know me well know that I have never been a lazy person, and although I can't compare with codeword maniacs in my spare time, I have maintained a fairly stable update, almost never stopped for four years. As for this "Earth Master", my attitude is the same, try my best to maintain a stable rhythm of updates, and I will ensure that the whole book is perfect.

I discussed with the editor, not to seize the first few days of the month, tentatively scheduled to be on the shelves on April 6, if there is any change, it will only be postponed and not advanced. Thank you for your long-term support!
