The sun shone on the world, and as the darkness was dispelled, the heavens and the earth became bright and clear again.

On the Ice Wind Cliff, Xiao Mozhu and the four of them waited anxiously, and agreed with the old man Buzhou for the next stage of cultivation, but the old man did not show up for a long time.

In front of the cave, Xi Ziqian kept walking back and forth, and her mood was clearly expressed in action.

"It's been this time, and Master hasn't come yet, so he doesn't want us to continue meditating, right?" Du Hanyun said with a frightened face.

Perhaps, when the four of them were meditating, the old man had been observing somewhere, so he had a better understanding of the progress of the four of them, but he was not satisfied with the current results of the four of them's practice, so he simply did not show up, and let the four of them reflect on themselves before continuing to meditate on the cliffside......

In the minds of Xiao Mozhu and the four of them, such a conjecture couldn't help but appear, which explained very well why the "master" had not yet arrived.

"I don't want to meditate anymore, I've already reached my goal, and I won't fall any further!" Xi Ziqian pursed her mouth, feeling very aggrieved, and said with a sad face.

Not only Du Hanyun and Xi Ziqian, but even Xiao Mozhu was also very depressed, although he was practicing with his master, he should have done whatever the master said, but it had been a few days since he came to Xuelian Peak, and he had just sat on the edge of the cliff doing nothing for three days, at least Xiao Mozhu didn't feel any change in himself.

Maybe it's just a waste of three days! Xi Ziqian thought about it like this, but it was impossible to say it directly.

"Why are you so early and in good spirits?" At the mouth of the cave, Xiaoice stood behind everyone and said suddenly.

After hearing the voice, the four people turned around and looked at Xiaoice together.

"Xiaoice, you should know, right? Master, why hasn't he come yet? Xi Ziqian hurriedly ran over and pulled Xiaoice to ask.

After scanning the four people one by one, Xiaoice nodded suddenly and said, "So you guys are waiting for him!" Is it so motivated? ”

"Xiaoice sister...... Oh no, Sister Xiaoice, tell us quickly! Originally wanting to curry favor temporarily, Du Hanyun suddenly remembered Xiaoice's age and hurriedly changed his words.

In terms of human age, although Xiaoice has always looked like a little girl, she is actually over 100 years old, and she is undoubtedly an "elderly girl"!

Seeing the four young men with different expressions, Xiaoice snickered and said seriously, "If you are waiting for the old man, then you don't have to wait, because he won't come here." ”

Hearing this, Xi Ziqian took a step back, instantly lost her vitality, and muttered to herself, "Are you really not satisfied with our cultivation results?" ”

"But why is that when all of us have achieved our goal?" With such a development, even Pu Xueying couldn't be silent, and asked Xiaoice in confusion.

Xiaoice chuckled, raised his arm, shook his index finger, and said, "Tsk!" I didn't say anything else, it's all your own conjecture! ”

"I only said that he wouldn't come here, but that doesn't mean he won't be ......waiting somewhere else," Xiaoice whistled leisurely and said slowly.

It was after these words that Xiao Mozhu and the four of them all changed into a stunned demeanor......

"What kind of expression is this? Okay, let me tell you, old man Zhou, he asked me to take you to a place, a place that is more suitable for your next practice. Xiaoice whetted the appetite of several people, and finally said his task peacefully.

"In other words......" Du Hanyun was about to ask a rhetorical question, but was interrupted by Xi Ziqian next to him.

"We're going to change places to cultivate?" Xi Ziqian couldn't wait to ask.

With a smile on his head, Xiaoice said, "Yes, on the other side of the Snow Refining Peak, there is a waterfall pool, and the old man just ordered me to take you to that place." ”

"Haha, I see, I'll just say, how could Master and his old man break his promise, right?" Xi Ziqian's mood improved, and she said with her hands dancing.

"But, that's not what you said just now......" Du Hanyun couldn't help but complain, but was completely ignored by Xi Ziqian.

"Quick, quick! Xiaoice will take us over quickly, by the way, what kind of place is it? Xi Ziqian said eagerly.

Xiaoice was helpless, and after looking at everyone, he pointed to the exit of the Ice Wind Cliff to the west, and then was pulled away by Xi Ziqian.

Xiao Mozhu, Du Hanyun, and Pu Xueying also breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.

To the south of Xuelian Peak, less than 200 meters above the ground, there is a beautiful pool.

At the top of the mountain, there is a white area, and from the perennial snow area to the low level, the water that melts the snow drips down, forming a small waterfall, and the falling water is mixed with the snow and ice that has not completely melted, which is an ice fall.

Below the icefall, the water is pooled, and although the water is clear, it does not know its depth, and the Xiaoice calls it a cold pool.

The ice waterfall cold pool is the place where Xiaoice took everyone after the orders of the old man.

At the end of October, when winter comes, the icefall cold pool also begins to change a little.

As the temperature drops, there are more "ice" components in the water falling from the icefall, and there is more "swish" in the cold pool.

Moreover, in the cold pool, there is already a thin layer of ice flakes floating on the surface of the water, and under the influence of ripples, the ice flakes are broken and condensed, condensed and broken, and the cycle is endless.

Xi Ziqian was very anxious, constantly urging, Xiaoice still wanted to walk over slowly, but was annoyed by the noise, so he had to turn into demon wind black smoke, fly at the forefront, and lead the way.

In the rush of the group, and also by the momentum of going down the mountain, it only took a quarter of an hour to come to the place described by Xiaoice, the ice waterfall cold pool.

The fresh and quiet scenery makes everyone's eyes shine, although the momentum is slightly smaller, but the ice waterfall cold pool is also a beautiful scenery.

Crash!

Crash!

Thin streams of ice and snow fell from a high place into the cold pool, and there was a non-stop clapping sound.

"It's a nice place, but it's a little stingy compared to Icewind Bluffs." Du Hanyun looked at the cold pool of the icefall and commented.

Xi Ziqian disagreed, and retorted, "I think it's better here, I'm tired of staying at Ice Wind Cliff!" ”

Listening to the sound of splashing water, looking at the blue cold pool, an indescribable coolness hit, just standing on the edge of the cold pool, the senses were affected by it, and produced an illusion that it was colder here than on the Ice Wind Cliff.

Looking around casually, Xi Ziqian asked Xiaoice in confusion, "We are all here, so where is the master?" ”

Not only Xi Ziqian, but the other three also looked at it at the same time, Xiaoice sighed and shook his head, slowly raised his slender arm, and pointed in one direction.

Icefall cold pool.

Under the gaze of the four, Xiaoice pointed to the edge of the cold pool.

Xiao Mozhu, Du Hanyun, Xi Ziqian, and Pu Xueying were immediately in confusion, and after scanning the cold pool, they looked at each other.

"Xiaoice, are you kidding?" The muscles on Du Hanyun's face twitched, and he asked.

The scene seen by the four people is exactly the same, the ice waterfall and cold pool are just a natural scenery, where can I see the shadow of half a person?

So it's no wonder that Du Hanyun asks questions, because he feels like he's been tricked.

Xiaoice imitated Xi Ziqian's appearance, suddenly crossed his hands and waist, and scolded in a loud voice, "Apply what you have learned, apply what you have learned!" If you take a good time to calm down and observe, and confidently say that you have reached the state of 'meditation', is this the level? ”

Suddenly with a straight face, Xiaoice changed his usual idle expression, like a stern teacher, glaring at a group of four.

Still confused, the four of them looked at Hantan again......

"Remember, 'meditation' is a state of mind, a state of mind! Meditating at the Icewind Cliffs is just a first glimpse of the threshold of this state, and it is only when you can maintain a state of 'meditation' at all times that you can truly achieve this state of mind! ”

When several people looked around in confusion, Xiaoice explained in detail on the side.

"All things are moving, and stillness is resting, the so-called phase is born from the heart, only by doing 'meditation', can we see the 'quiet' side of the world, and the combination of movement and stillness is the real world and all things ......"

With Xiaoice's step-by-step temptation, Xiao Mozhu and the four began to stand and open, recalling the feeling when they sat on the Ice Wind Cliff.

No fear, no distractions, nothing to seek, the heart is like water, that is, the "meditation" that several people do.

The sound of falling water is like a sound, one drop at a time, hitting the heart, the cold pool reflects the icefall, and the circle ripples so that the reflection of the icefall is fragmented.

At some point, Xiaoice had stopped talking, and there was silence outside the icefall pool.

Everyone was motionless, originally looking at the scenery, but now it seems to have changed into a stroke of the scenery......

In such an environment, the feelings of Xiao Mozhu and the four of them gradually became clear, and the surrounding scene seemed to be completely new, and everything and everything were displayed in front of them in a different image.

When the four people who were amazed looked at the edge of the cold pool again, they unexpectedly found a different scene from before.

A vague figure appeared proudly on the edge of the pool, as if it was erratic, but when I looked at it again, I found that he didn't seem to move at all.

Attention gradually focused, and the figure finally became clear......

Not thoughtful old man!

"Master!" Xi Ziqian shouted in surprise.

Xiao Mozhu, Pu Xueying, and Du Hanyun also saw the figure of the old man clearly, and felt that the world was really wonderful.

"Really, let me be a demon to tell you humans what realm, it's ridiculous!" Xiaoice took a breath and grumbled dissatisfied.

It turned out that from the time the group came to the ice waterfall cold pool, or even more ago, the old man had already stood quietly somewhere, just melting into the surrounding "quiet", which was difficult to find with ordinary eyes, until Xiaoice reminded him several times, Xiao Mozhu and the four finally "looked" him.

Under the watchful eyes of a large number of people, the old man turned around slowly, shook his head, and sighed, "It's far away, it's still far away!" ”

"Master, don't say that, we've only been here for three days, and we've been working hard and working hard, and it's already very good to be able to make progress so quickly!" Xi Ziqian pouted.

The old man was stunned for a while, and wanted to reprimand two more sentences, but he couldn't find anything to say......

Indeed, judging from the progress of these four people, it is already a very fast speed, but fortunately, it also has a certain foundation, and the state of mind of "meditation" also takes time to achieve, and it is very rare for the four people to have the current state.

Holding his long beard, the old man thought for a while, nodded to himself, and said, "Forget it, I won't worry too much about you, let's start the next stage of cultivation." ”

"Yay! Long live Master, I know that Master is the best! Xi Ziqian cheered and jumped, excited like a child who won a candy gift bag in the lottery.

Even a great master like Old Man Buzhou, who lives deep in the world, is a little relieved when he sees Xi Ziqian's lively appearance, plus Xi Ziqian praised a few words, and he unconsciously felt a little fluttery.

In the back, Du Hanyun looked at this scene speechlessly, approached Xiao Mozhu, and whispered, "Do you know? She often uses this trick against her dad! Either I want pocket money, or I have caused some trouble, as long as this trick is used, I will ensure that Uncle Xi will walk with wind when he laughs, and when he reacts, this girl is gone! ”

Pu Xueying was not far from Xiao Mozhu, and when she heard what Du Hanyun said, she couldn't help but smile and bend over.

"Capricious! But look at the master's red face, you have to ask Ziqian to make the master happy in the future, maybe he will teach us any tricks! Xiao Mozhu said with a smile.

"It's almost there!"

Xiaoice pinched the sides of the red dress and jumped up and floated towards the cold pool......

Just when she was about to fall into the water, her toes tapped on the surface of the water, and after touching a circle of ripples, she stepped steadily on the water, and behind her was a falling ice fall, and the Xiaoice at this moment was like a light elf!

It seemed to turn around casually twice, the red dress fluttered, and Xiaoice said, "Wasting time on meaningless things is a blasphemy of life." ”

"Ahem!"

The old man immediately regained his seriousness, put his hands behind his back, coughed lightly twice, and said, "Since you have a preliminary understanding of the realm of 'meditation', then next, I will teach you the 'Meditation Technique' and concentrate your attention." ”

Xiao Mozhu and the three of them, who were joking, and Xi Ziqian, who was "touting divine skills", saw that the old man's face changed, and he hurriedly treated it solemnly, and the word "good" was written on his face.

Satisfied with his "majesty", the old man said slowly in front of Xiao Mozhu and the four of them, "The Resting Technique is a high-level spiritual technique of the ancient witch clan, which strengthens perception and consolidates spiritual power, which is of great benefit to the improvement of cultivation!" ”

"However, the premise of learning the Resting Technique is the realm of 'Meditation', and there is still some difficulty, but fortunately you have a good foundation, otherwise you don't know that the Year of the Monkey is qualified to learn this." The old man said.

"Master, rest assured, we guarantee that we will make you happy and satisfied with the cultivation of forgetting sleep and food!" Xi Ziqian couldn't help but continue to talk rhetorically.

"Don't be poor!"

The old man already had "resistance", and this time he didn't get hit, and after a loud shout, he stood facing Hantan.

Just as the old man was speaking, Xiaoice had already left the cold pool, and he didn't know where to run.
