Chapter 1057: Story
"Xiran, what do you want this scripture for?"
Li Qing asked, holding the scriptures. This book may seem to have some research value. If the artistic conception depicted in it is really the mood, it is worth the money.
"This is my grandfather's scripture, and he has carried it with him for the rest of his life."
Xi Ran said. For as long as she can remember, her grandfather has treated this book like a treasure.
"Then take me to your grandfather, I have something I want to ask him, and by the way, return the scriptures to him."
After Li Qing finished speaking, he threw the scripture book to Xi Ran. If this book really has a background, when the time comes, she will borrow it herself, and her grandfather will probably not refuse.
"Really! Uncle Li Qing is such a good person! This way! ”
Xi Ran hugged the scriptures and was overjoyed, and happily praised Li Qing and led the way in front.
"Uncle?"
Li Qing was stunned for a while, he was less than 20, okay? But then he smiled and followed, there was no need to be serious with children. If she can get some artistic conception gains from her grandfather, it will be worth the trip.
"Who else do you have in your house? What about parents? ”
On the way, Li Qing asked casually.
"Mom and Dad are dead, they are great starry warriors!"
Although Xi Ran said with confidence, he couldn't hide the sadness in his expression.
"Oh, how far is it?"
Seeing Xiran's injury, Li Qing diverted the topic.
Losing one's parents at such a young age is inevitable. It's like I haven't had any memories of my parents since I was a child, and I don't really feel much sadness when I think of my parents except for a sense of emptiness.
……
After walking through a few streets, I took a car for more than ten minutes, and finally arrived at Xiran's home. Centered on a huge ancient tree, a small village with dozens of families has been formed.
In these planetary cities nowadays, land for houses is cheap. As long as you don't eat and wait for death, it's still easy to have an independent courtyard house. For example, this is a fringe location of the city, and you can buy a set of about 100,000 Star Sky Coins.
"Grandpa! Grandpa......"
Walking into a courtyard, Xiran shouted happily.
Li Qing followed. This is a two-story wooden house, simple and atmospheric, a bit like the shape of a temple, I think it took some effort to build it in the first place. There are seven or eight rooms in total, and they look a little old.
"Xiao Ran? Why aren't you in school? What are you doing when you come back? ”
At this time, the door opened, and an old man of seventy or eighty years old came out, with a wrinkled face, a gray beard, and a bald head. But the body looks quite tough.
"Look! What is it? Hehe......"
Xi Ran shook the scriptures in front of his grandfather as if showing off.
"This!"
The old man was startled at first, and then he roughly understood when he saw Li Qing in the back. But his eyes are a little more vigilant.
"Li Qing has seen the old man!"
Li Qing took the initiative to come forward to salute. He could feel the old man's wariness.
"Whoever comes is a guest! Inside please. ”
The old man took Xiran's hand and took the lead and walked inside.
"Grandpa, ...... today"
Xi Ran can't wait to talk about today's encounter.
When you enter the house, you can smell the scent of sandalwood, and there is also a half-meter-tall statue enshrined in the main hall. The statue is so weathered that it looks thousands of years old. When he entered the inside, the old man beckoned Li Qing to sit down.
"I see, old man, thank you for your help."
After listening to Xi Ran's narration, Xi Xiang got up and thanked Li Qing.
"It's just a gesture, and I want to help her because I worked so hard."
Li Qing also got up and replied. But how did he feel that the old man didn't seem to be as happy as he imagined, didn't he say that this was the treasure he had brought for a lifetime?
"Xiao Ran, it's not the holiday yet, you should go back to school. You have to ...... well."
Xi Xiang turned his head to look at Xi Ran and said slowly.
"That's it! All right! You have to treat Uncle Li Qing well, he is a good person. ”
Before Xi Xiang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xi Ran. walked out with a helpless face. She came out of school without hiding, and she will definitely be punished when she goes back. After all, at this stage, whether it is cultivation or study, the school is very tight.
"That's right! I'll give you the money back. ”
Xi Ran, who had just walked out of the door, suddenly ran to Li Qing again and said.
"It's better not to give too much money to the kids."
Yuxiang also smiled and nodded.
Li Qing, who originally wanted to forget it, had to get the contribution points back, but only took 490 points. On the eve of the Eve, she also entered the Liantai Residence, and must have paid a ticket of 10,000 starry sky coins, although she didn't know where she got the money, but 10,000 was definitely not a small amount for her.
"Look at Xiaoyou's clothes, are you a guard?"
After seeing Xiran leave, Xixiang asked.
"I'm from the expeditionary fleet! The old man also spent time in the guard? ”
Li Qing couldn't help but look at the old man at night. The clothes he wore were casual clothes made by the Guards, and there were no markings on them, so people who hadn't been in the Guards couldn't recognize them.
"O expeditionary fleet! Xiran's parents used to be expeditionary fleets, but they never came back after a long voyage. ”
Xi Xiang said with a hint of sadness.
"You're here for the Heart Sutra, right?"
Soon Xixiang put away his emotions and asked again.
"Don't hide it from the old man, I've read this scripture, it seems to be related to artistic conception?"
Li Qing also replied truthfully. This evening phase seems to have seen the world, and it is better to tell the truth, so as not to increase misunderstanding.
"What level of cultivation have you reached?"
Yu asked.
"Phase 2! I just couldn't find a way to break through the third stage, and now I'm looking around. ”
Li Qing replied.
"Seeing that you have reached the second stage of cultivation at a young age, you are worthy of being a member of the expeditionary fleet! Come for tea. ”
Xixiang said as he made a pot of tea for Li Qing.
"This is indeed a kind of artistic conception, called Yuli Mantra! However, the scriptures are not complete, and it is impossible to comprehend the mantra of the imperial power from the scriptures. ”
Xi Xiang said after taking a serious look at Li Qing. After living for seventy or eighty years, he thinks that he still has some ability to see people. Li Qing gave him the feeling that he was a pure cultivator who did not have too many desires and evil thoughts. That's why the truth was told.
"Imperial power? But the man who wrote the scriptures has reached the third stage of artistic conception? ”
Li Qing hurriedly asked. I won't learn other artistic conceptions, but the artistic conception of interception is also the artistic conception of driving power, and I may be able to learn from this mantra of Yuli!
"Shall I tell you a story?"
Xixiang did not answer Li Qing directly, but began to tell the story.
"Almost 200 years ago, right? A baby boy named Yasheng was born. Yasheng is naturally intelligent, and he reads and learns a lot of miles a day, far beyond ordinary people. Before the age of 14, he was called by the state and became an official of one party. But at that time, the whole country was already at war, and the officialdom was corrupt and full of mediocrity. ”。
After seeing through the darkness of people's hearts, Yasheng resolutely resigned and devoted himself to cultivation. A few years later, a war spread to his temple, and he accidentally fell off a cliff while fleeing for his life. But luckily, he was saved by an old tree in the middle of the cliff. ”
"And he found a cave next to the old tree, and in addition to a vague statue, there was a delicate little tree bearing a glowing fruit."
