Chapter 40: Mouth Escape
Li Huairen is a Buddha, why are there rumors about him everywhere.
How does this make him explain? This disciple of the Heavenly Mandate Sect really didn't do anything for a day, and rumors spread everywhere.
Yuan Jiao's favorability is 65!
Li Huairen: "??? ”
Co-authored now that the rumors really increase the favorability? That's fine!
"Yuan Jiao, I saw you chopping bamboo just now, are you practicing?"
Li Huairen said.
Yuan Jiao said respectfully: "Back to Senior Brother Huairen's words, yes! This is the first stage of practice in the Bitter Mountain. ”
Li Huairen secretly sighed that the cultivation method of the Bitter Mountain was really orthodox enough.
Asking the disciples to chop and chop something, it is very similar to the routine of cultivating immortals in orthodox fantasy novels.
"Then I won't bother you, you go on, I'll go find Uncle Lu."
After Li Huairen finished speaking, he was about to leave.
I heard only a jingle of bells.
"Mission: Yuan Jiao's troubles
Mission Details: Let Yuan Jiao break through the limit and complete the first stage of the cultivation task of the Bitter Mountain.
Reward: Transfiguration'
Li Huairen was a little confused, could it be that this bitter mountain was really his blessed land? Any person you meet will trigger a quest for him.
Transfiguration?
Oni, the kind from Naruto?
I feel like there's a benefit!
He Naruto can change the transformation technique to the color seduction technique, why can't he Li Huairen?
Li Huairen's mind went crooked in an instant.
"Senior Brother Huairen?"
Yuan Jiao saw Li Huairen say that he was leaving, and then stood in place and lost his mind, and couldn't help but shout in confusion.
Li Huairen came back to his senses when he heard this, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Yuan Jiao.
It's you, the name is right, and the rewards for the triggered quests are all related to that!
"Oh, I'm fine, I just suddenly want to see you practice, don't worry about me, you can continue!"
"Yes, Senior Brother Huairen."
As soon as Yuan Jiao heard that Li Huairen wanted to see his own cultivation, he was still about to rest for a while, and he suddenly felt that his strength was surging again!
That's Senior Brother Huairen! He wants to see his own practice! How to slack off yourself!
After Yuan Jiao replied, he picked up the axe again and slashed at those bitter bamboos.
Li Huairen stood aside and quietly watched Yuan Jiao's operation.
From the process of Yuan Jiao's chopping bitter bamboo, Li Huairen discovered something strange.
When those bitter bamboos are cut down, they will actively absorb the surrounding aura to repair themselves.
Yuan Jiao, who was closest to the bitter bamboo, was the first source of absorption, and when he finished cutting one, Yuan Jiao was already out of breath and couldn't stand steadily.
"Isn't that going to work?"
Li Huairen frowned.
"Wai...... Senior Brother Huairen......"
Yuan Jiao lowered his head, and his words couldn't be smooth.
"Tell me, aren't you going to do it?"
Li Huairen's tone was very stern.
"I ...... I ......"
Yuan Jiao wanted to say that he couldn't do it anymore, he felt that he couldn't stand on his feet now, and he would fall down anytime and anywhere.
"Yuan Jiao, do you know that Kushan is called Abandoned Mountain?"
Li Huairen said.
"I ...... Know. ”
Speaking of the abandonment of the mountain, probably no Kushan disciple would say that he didn't know.
But what about knowing?
If the talent is not good, it is not good, compared to those disciples of other mountains who break through the realm at every turn, and the knot is as simple as eating and drinking, their bitter mountain can indeed be called an abandoned mountain.
"Do you think you're a failure?"
Li Huairen asked again.
"Lost ......"
Yuan Jiao wanted to say failure, but he choked up when he saw Li Huairen's scorching eyes like flames.
He can't say it!
"Man, you only fail when you give up, do you want to give up forever?"
Li Huairen's suddenly gentle tone was like a heavy hammer, more severe than it!
Yuan Jiao's whole person was in a trance.
No one had ever said anything like that to him.
Failure is only when you give up......
He thought of his first 80 years of cutting bamboo, every time he was tired, he would rest, and then continue chopping.
A little progress is satisfying, and then there is a long period of stagnation.
He has tried many methods, such as how to quickly cut down a bitter bamboo, and then recover in the shortest possible time. As long as the interval between his repetitions is short enough, sooner or later he will be able to meet the requirement of cutting a hundred bitter bamboos in one day.
Another example is to chop both hands at the same time, cutting two at a time.
But he didn't succeed in the end.
Constant failure, and then constant repetition, as if in the past eighty years, except for time walking, he has remained in place and has not moved.
"Really...... May I? Senior Brother Huairen? ”
Li Huairen's words gave Yuan Jiao a glimmer of hope.
Li Huairen smiled when he heard this: "Can you do it, you will know when you do it, what exactly are you going to accomplish?" Is it to cut down these bamboos? Or do you win over yourself? ”
"Cut down the bamboo? Overcome yourself? ”
Yuan Jiao lost his mind for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he had unconsciously clenched the axe in his hand.
Yuan Jiao didn't speak, but set his eyes on Kuzhu.
He raised his axe, and out of nowhere, he slashed down at the bitter bamboo.
Over and over.
Every time he raised the axe, Yuan Jiao felt that he couldn't hold on anymore.
But he still gritted his teeth, this time, he didn't want to give up!
He has given up for 80 years, but today, after Li Huairen said those words, he doesn't want to give up!
Li Huairen watched quietly on the side, but he was thinking in his heart.
Maybe I have the potential to be the king of the mouth? It's no wonder that the guy likes the mouth cannon, and the feeling of the mouth cannon is really not covered!
Axe after axe, Yuan Jiao's movements became inexplicably coherent.
An inexplicable spiritual power erupted from Yuan Jiao's body, and Li Huairen's eyes couldn't help but widen.
One axe, two layers of foundation, one axe, three layers of foundation......
With more than a dozen axes in a row, Li Huairen watched Yuan Jiao go from the first floor of the foundation to the seventh layer of Jiedan!
Yuan Jiao's old appearance no longer exists, and now in front of Li Huairen, he is a young man!
"What the hell am I ...... Could it be that he also has a cheat? Upgrades aren't like that, are they? ”
Li Huairen's eyes turned red.
He still has three layers of foundation, why does he feel like he has lost?
Yuan Jiao stopped suddenly.
He was also aware of the changes in himself.
"Senior Brother Huairen, what am I?"
Yuan Jiao was still confused, not knowing what was wrong with him.
"Congratulations, it looks like you've beaten yourself. I think the purpose of this first stage of your practice is not to actually cut how many bamboos you can cut in a day, but to allow you to break through yourself. As the saying goes, keep the clouds open and see the moon, I think this should be your accumulated work for many years. ”
Li Huairen was very sour in his heart, but he still said very seriously on the surface.
When Yuan Jiao heard this, he suddenly realized.
He didn't think much about it, he just knew that he came to cut bamboo every day.
I thought that my qualifications were really not good, and I might not be able to cross the threshold of the first stage in this life, but I didn't expect that under the encouragement of Li Huairen, he crossed the threshold in a blink of an eye! And he became a monk in the Yudan period!
"Thank you, Senior Brother Huairen!"
Yuan Jiao bowed deeply and said in admiration.
"Small problem, small problem, okay, then I'll go find Uncle Lu."
"Senior Brother Huairen, wait, I'm with you, and I'm going to find Master as well, and ask Master to give me the second stage of my cultivation task!"
Li Huairen secretly said annoyingly.
He's going to try his transformation in a place where no one is around.
But Yuan Jiao said so, how could he refuse?
I could only reluctantly go to find Lu Yu with Yuan Jiao.
