There was a snowfall last night, and the Qilian Mountain on the edge of the farm in the Western Capital Shengjing was suddenly pale. On the desert in the distance, the original long yellow sand is also dyed with snow, yellow and white, like a crisp pear skin.

Cai Hongming got up early in the morning to see it, so he took out a broom to clear the snow, so as not to get wet in front of the door when the snow melts.

Chu Chu came out to see it, and immediately pinched the little snowball and threw it at the unicorn mastiff horn and Bailu Xuexue, and the two little guys hurriedly dodged.

The pika dragon who was originally going to pass looked at it and didn't dare to go over. Wukong, who has always liked to hide at home and be a beautiful rabbit quietly, finally came out for a walk, and when he saw the snow outside, he immediately turned around and returned to his soft sofa nest.

Black and White Twins and Cher also came, and they stood quietly watching them play.

The golden yak was already at the lake, but it didn't come, but just glanced at it and turned its head again.

I don't know why, any animal on the farm dares to mess with it, except for the golden yak. I usually pat it and say hello when I see it, and I never dare to yell at it.

After a while, the big buck family, Huahua and Daxia also came over. For a while, the open space in front of the house was filled with all kinds of animals, and it became a world of animals.

After eating, Cai Hongming walked up the mountain. When Chu Chu saw it, he immediately followed him, followed by his followers Jiaojiao, Xuexue and Xiaolong. As soon as he was halfway up the mountain, only two hundred meters away from home, the little guy shouted, "Oh, I'm so tired!" Dad, we've been gone for a long time, where are we going! ”

Cai Hongming knew that this little kid was a trouble, and suddenly said with a bad face: "I'm tired after only walking a few steps, why don't I see you tired when I play." ”

Chu Chu said confidently: "Of course I didn't know I was tired when I was playing, but now I'm climbing a mountain, of course I'm tired." ”

Cai Hongming likes to see her speak confidently, because it feels very funny.

"Okay, okay, I'll be there soon, and you'll talk a lot. If you look at the horns, they don't shout tired, but you shout tired. ”

"Dad, they walk on four feet, I only use two feet, of course I'm tired!"

Talking to her, Cai Hongming can sometimes vomit blood. Because the little one has countless reasons at all times, and each one of them is quite reasonable. Ignore her for the moment and continue to walk up. When she got to the mountain, the little one didn't feel tired again, and ran forward with her followers.

The little one was sometimes brought to the temple by his grandfather and mother to play, so the old people in the temple knew her.

As soon as they saw her coming, the old people went to bring her their treasured sweets to eat. In just a few moments, the little one's pockets and mouth were stuffed.

It was snowing today, the weather was a little cold, and the old people did not play mahjong outside, but stayed in the temple. Cai Hongming greeted the old man one by one, let the little guy stay with them for a while, and then walked in.

The little guy is very familiar with this place, she ran in front with Jiaojiao and other followers, and Cai Hongming followed behind unhurriedly.

When he came to the small courtyard behind the last major hall, Chu Chu saw an uncle he had seen before. He was still the same as before, wearing a long dress, with long hair like his mother, and a cow's tail in his hand, which his mother said was dust. She also has a small one, which was given by Uncle Xiahou, saying that it can be used to chase mosquitoes, sweep dust, and teach disobedient animals. She felt useless, there were no mosquitoes or dust in their house, and they were very well-behaved, so she didn't want to fight them?

Sometimes, though, she would use her little whisk to tease her father, and he was so funny.

When Dad was sleeping, she took the tail of the little whisk and scratched in front of his nose, and his nose moved, and then sneezed, so loudly, and once frightened the timid Xue Xue.

When Chu Chu saw Ji Changqing, he immediately exclaimed sweetly: "Uncle." ”

Although the little guy is usually naughty and mischievous, his mouth is very sweet, and when he sees people, he calls his sister, aunt, aunt, uncle, uncle, and grandfather, so she never has to spend money to buy things when she is taken to the street by her grandmother, and they are all forced to give her.

"Chu Chu is here, who are you here with this time!" Ji Changqing asked with a smile.

"Come with my dad." Chu Chu looked restlessly left and right, and asked Ji Changqing, "Uncle, do you know martial arts?" ”

"Not at all." Ji Changqing said modestly.

"Is my dad so good?" Chu Chu said curiously.

"Well, of course not!"

"I don't think so, my dad is so good, once I saw my dad beating ten uncles by himself. Alas, I'm not that good, I can only fight four. Chu Chu said solemnly with four fingers.

"So powerful, who are you fighting with?" Ji Changqing asked with interest.

"Fight with the horns."

Saying that, Chu Chu didn't know which tendon was wrong, and she actually practiced the Feihe Boxing that Cai Hongming usually taught her on the spot, practicing and practicing, only to see her punch on Jiaojiao's body, Jiaojiao suddenly lay on the ground like a cramp, and her tongue was exposed; Then, she punched the pika dragon again, and the dragon was even more exaggerated, and simply fell straight back; Finally, another punch landed on Bailu Xuexue, who took a few steps back, squatted first, and then fell to the ground.

Chu Chu looked at the lesson and said: "Xue Xue, you are not right like this, you should lie on the ground directly like a horn." ”

Xue Xue stood up and licked her flatteringly, it wanted to say that it was so high, and the floor was hard, it would hurt to fall.

Chu Chu seemed to know what it meant, touched it and said, "Okay, okay, let's find a place with sand to play next time, it won't hurt if we fall." ”

She comforted her loyal followers one by one, and then asked Ji Changqing, "Uncle, you see how powerful I am!" ”

"Awesome." Ji Changqing worked hard to maintain his image, so as not to laugh out loud.

"Evergreen." At this time, Cai Hongming came from outside.

"Here you are, sit." Ji Changqing asked Cai Hongming to sit down, and went to make tea, and Chu Chu was playing with them on the side.

The fragrance of tea lingers in the grass hall. After a while, Cai Hongming took out a book from his arms and pushed it in front of Ji Changqing. When Ji Changqing saw it, his heart was surging.

"As the old saying goes, 'The law should not be passed on lightly, and the Tao should not be passed on to the unvirtuous'. You have been in the temple for a while, and during this period of time, I have observed your human nature, and I see that you are also a person who has no quarrel with the world, quiet and inaction, and should be worthy of me to pass on the Fa decision, I hope you will not let me down. This is a note I copied from the minutes of my master's practice left by my master Peng Yuzhen, I hope it will be helpful to you. ”

Ji Changqing was extremely excited, got up and said, "Thank you." ”

"Fellow believers, why bother to say thank you, besides, you also sent a copy of the Dan Sutra."

After hearing this, Ji Changqing couldn't help blushing and said, "Actually, that Dan Sutra is useless. ”

"Not necessarily." Cai Hongming is here for this matter, and since it has been done, get up and leave. Chu Chu's little kid hurriedly followed with her followers.

Ji Changqing watched him leave, and then turned his gaze to the notes on the table, and touched it lightly with his hand, as if touching his beloved.

It is naturally impossible for Pu Dan to be useless, at least not for Cai Hongming. Now that he has prepared all the things for alchemy, he is waiting for the furnace to be alchemized.

Cai Hongming's road to alchemy was bumpy and bumpy. He originally thought that he could just get some medicinal herbs and mix them together to make alchemy, but after inquiring, he found out that it was not. First of all, some of the medicinal materials in the Danjing specifically indicate the harvesting season. Which medicinal herbs are dug in which season is clear, you can't dig indiscriminately, otherwise the medicinal effect is not right, and you won't be able to refine the pill at that time.

For example, the medicinal herbs that grow in the spring, because it is born in spring and die in spring, if you don't accept it, it will be gone.

Some are spring, summer, and autumn, and you can't do it early, and you can't do it too late, because too early it won't work, and too late you will freeze to death, so it's very troublesome. It was only until now that Cai Hongming reluctantly collected all the medicinal materials.

Originally, he could buy it directly from the medicinal herb dealer, but he was afraid that it would not be fresh, so he contacted many parties and asked for the freshest medicinal materials to get it himself.

After the medicinal materials are bought, they have to be concocted, one is to remove their toxicity, and the other is to absorb the essence, which is very cumbersome.

Despite this, Cai Hongming still prepared the things that should be prepared, and prepared to open the furnace for alchemy today.

The place for alchemy was chosen in the backyard, and he specially paved a four-meter-diameter ground with stones, with a Dan furnace on top and jujube wood below. Next to it was full of medicinal herbs that he had spent countless efforts to buy, some of which he had dug up himself. Prepare things and clear the field, that is, to drive the curious Chu Chu and her followers out of the backyard, so as not to make trouble with these guys and cause the alchemy to fall short.

Chu Chu was very dissatisfied with this and complained to his mother: "Mom, Dad, he won't let me play with Jiaojiao in the backyard." The little guy pouted, looking so aggrieved.

"Daddy is doing something, and when you're done, you can go play." Shi Wan'er comforted her daughter.

"But I want to see him do things."

"Then I'll take you upstairs to see it later, and you can see it upstairs from our upstairs."

"Oh"

Hearing her mother say this, Chu Chu can only do this. In fact, she just wants to watch her dad do things next to him. The curiosity of the little one is very great. Cai Hongming just knew that he drove her away, otherwise the little guy would be curious to touch the Dan furnace during alchemy, so he would have to do it?

According to the records of the Baopu Dan Sutra, before alchemy, it is necessary to burn incense and bathe, abstain from women's sex, remove irritability, and calm the body and mind.

Sometimes the things said in the ancient books naturally have their truth, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, Cai Hongming did it, and it was even more ruthless, he hadn't talked to Shi Wan'er for a month.

Mencius said it well: "Therefore, the heavens will descend on people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their hearts, and act chaotically. ”

The other Cai Hongming didn't know if he could do it, but this "forbearance" was done to the extreme.

So, the night before yesterday, he watched his wife take a shower and had a nosebleed. (To be continued.) )
