13. Three levels of agility

"I didn't expect you, a playful boy, to have some filial piety." Qin Murong said slowly: "Let me save your master, heh, if you didn't listen to me at the beginning, you wanted him to suffer a loss." Okay, it's up to you to save him, I'll save him. ”

Qi Mu was immediately overjoyed: "Really? ”

Zhang Tiansheng smiled bitterly and said, "Murong, why are you torturing me so much." Even saving me is just for the sake of my little apprentice's face. ...... between us"

"Less nonsense." Qin Murong said coldly: "When we parted ways, you should have known the current result. ”

Zhang Tiansheng nodded: "Yes, I know, even if you save me, I should thank you well." You could have left me to live and die, regardless of it. ”

A touch of pain flashed in Qin Murong's eyes, and then his tone hardened: "Save you, but you little apprentice, you have to accept some tests from me, otherwise don't mention this matter again, you two should leave as soon as possible." ”

"What test?" Qi Mu jumped up, followed by a bitter face: "If you ask me to do the exam questions and practice by endorsement, then I might as well admit defeat directly." I can do anything, but I can't study. ”

"Don't worry, I won't let you take the test." Qin Murong smiled slightly: "The test for you is the three levels of agility, if you pass, I will help your master see a doctor." ”

Qin Rouyi was stunned for a moment, and opened her mouth to say, but Qin Murong had already interrupted: "Rouyi, you are not allowed to help." Zhang Tiansheng, you too, are not allowed to help your apprentice. This test can only be completed by him alone. ”

Qi Mu smiled: "What are the three levels of agility? ”

Qin Murong raised his hand and said, "Take your time." The first one, before dark, catch three fish. ”

"Catch fish?" Qi Muhaha smiled, pointed to the river not far away and said with a smile: "Isn't there a river here, it's not easy to eat fish, Master, I'll catch it for you now." ”

"Okay, I can see three fish on the table before dark, even if you pass the level." Qin Murong smiled.

Qi Mu turned around to leave, but Zhang Tiansheng grabbed him and whispered, "Stinky boy, since Murong wants to embarrass you, it will definitely not be so simple." Most of these three levels are related to the Qi Pulse Dao Technique, so you have to think about it and watch it more and pay attention to it. ”

"Zhang Tiansheng, what are you talking about?" Qin Murong shouted: "Just in case you instruct your little apprentice, you can come in for me now!" ”

Zhang Tiansheng's eyebrows fluttered, and without saying a word, he rushed over in three steps and two steps. Qi Mu rolled his eyes, he really had a master and forgot about his apprentice. He was just about to go fishing, but he saw Qin Rouyi staring at him blankly. Thinking that he was being cleaned up by Qin Murong just now, he vaguely heard Qin Rouyi's plea.

Qi Mu smiled and said, "Are you worried about me?" Don't worry, catch birds and fish, I'm a good hand. ”

Qin Rouyi snorted: "Who is worried about you?" I think you'd better give up, Grandma's level is not so easy. If you think it's normal fishing, you're wrong. ”

When she said this, there was a coughing sound from the house, Qin Rouyi paused, and then walked in, and only Qi Mu was left in this simple small courtyard.

"Hey, isn't it just fishing, how hard can it be?" Qi Mu smiled, turned around and walked around, found a fishing rod made of bamboo, dug through bricks and soil in the corner, caught five or six earthworms, held them in his hands, and walked towards the small river outside the door.

The small river came from Cangyun Mountain, and when it reached the foot of the mountain, it was already a trickle into the sea, and the amount of water was very large. Qi Mu walked around the river, then walked to the entrance of the river at the foot of the mountain, flicked the fishing rod, sat down cross-legged, and said to himself: "There are the most fish and shrimp at the inlet, not to mention fishing three fish, just catch a thousand eight hundred, isn't it trivial?" ”

After fishing like this for a while, the fishing rod did not move, Qi Mu picked it up and looked at it, replaced it with a live earthworm, and threw it down again. This time he waited patiently for twenty minutes, but still no fish took the bait.

"Is there really anything weird?" Qi Mu couldn't help but half-kneel by the river, staring into the water. The river water in the mountains is clear, and you can see the bottom at a glance, the stones and sand, the fish and crabs, all of which are clear. Qi Mu seized the opportunity and gently threw the hook into the middle of several large fish, but the big fish did not look at them, and swam leisurely past the bait.

Qi Mu threw the fishing rod aside, took off his shoes, pulled up his robe, and stepped into the water with both feet, only to feel a chill. He bent down and saw a big fish passing by, his hands stretched out suddenly, and he was about to hug the fish, but the big fish twisted his body, just dodged Qi Mu's hand, swam over leisurely, and turned around, as if laughing at Qi Mu.

"Ouch, I'll go, could it be that the fish have Qi Pulse Dao Technique?" Qi Mu was annoyed and angry, flew over directly, his robe was wrapped into a net, and he was about to stand up when he hugged a fish, but the fish had a lot of strength, and his tail shook Qi Mu's face and fell into the river again.

This scene was like Qin Rouyi slapping herself before, it really made Qi Mu angry, and he threw himself around in the water, but he still didn't catch anything. Qi Mu realized that it was not that simple at all, sighed, and lay on his back on the grass by the river.

"Hey, little brother, are you going fishing?" A voice suddenly came from not far away, Qi Mu sat up suddenly, and there was a middle-aged man standing on the hillside, carrying a hoe, who should be a farmer in the farm when he came down the mountain just now.

Qi Mu nodded hurriedly: "Uncle, you live near here, do you have any fish for sale, or where is the nearby vegetable market, I want to buy a few fish here." ”

Qi Mu had this kind of ghost idea, but the farmer uncle said with a smile: "This is not the city, where does the vegetable market come from. We all farm and eat, you want the fish in this water, I can't catch it, don't waste your efforts. If you live around here, in a few hours, when it gets dark, Daoist Qin here will bring fish to everyone to eat, so you might as well wait. ”

Qi Mu stretched out his hand and pointed: "Is that the aunt who lives there?" ”

The peasant uncle raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense, that's Daochang Qin, a fairy-like figure, and those rural aunts in our village are different." We are poor and remote in this place, and there used to be some tour groups, but now there are no more. No one cares, we have to walk a long way to see a doctor. A few years ago, Qin Daochang came here, and he was to treat us and help us build water conservancy, this small river was led by Qin Daochang, and even the fish and shrimp in this water were the fish fry that Qin Daochang put in at the beginning. ”

Qi Mu's heart moved: Sure enough, the master said that the master's belief has always been to cultivate the Tao and use it for the people.

Thinking of this, Qi Mu suddenly shouted: "It's okay to see a doctor, this Qin Dao Chief, can he still build water conservancy and open mountains for drinking water?" How can it be? ”

The peasant uncle scratched his head, and then said, "I didn't believe it at first. But you see, we are all mountains here, where does the river come from? If you want water, you have to carry water for a long distance. After Daoist Qin came, he said that he wanted to bring water in, and Miss Qin dug in the mountains, and after a few days, there was water. And now, it has developed like this. Magical, you say, isn't it magical? The fish in this water, it is estimated that it was raised by Qin Daochang, so only Qin Daochang and Miss Qin can catch it, how many times have I tried, but I can't catch it at all, do you say it's magical? ”

The peasant uncle said a few magic in a row, and his respect for Qin Murong between his words can be seen. Qi Mu wanted to ask again, but the peasant uncle went home with a hoe, and the mountain song echoed in the mountains and rivers.

Qi Mu sat down cross-legged again, supporting his head with one hand, and calculated in his heart: as long as it is a fish, it will definitely be baited, and if it can't be baited, it is not a normal fish. Everyone can't catch it, only Shi Niang and Qin Rouyi can catch it, which is obviously related to the Qi Vein Dao Technique. It's just that how does fishing have to do with Taoism?

Thinking of this, Qi Mu began to recall Zhang Tiansheng's "Taoist Code of Conduct" again, but he didn't look at it well before, and he couldn't remember whether he had described the qi vein. After thinking about it, I still don't have a clue.

Crash!

The sudden sound of water broke Qi Mu's thinking. He looked up and happened to see Qin Rouyi standing in the distance downstream of the river. Qin Rouyi's long red dress fluttered in the wind, like a fire. She glanced at the side without a look, then turned to the river, flicked the fishing rod in her hand, and fell into the water.

Qi Mu was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask, but saw Qin Rouyi's hand shake, the fishing rod had been raised, and a prawn was brought up underneath. Without waiting for Qi Mu to be surprised, Qin Rouyi had already picked the prawns, and he threw the rod again, and in less than a few seconds, another prawn was caught.

Qi Mu was dumbfounded. It's okay to catch a shrimp, Qin Rouyi actually used a fishing rod to catch shrimp, and there were two in a row, is it easy to catch shrimp? Qi Mu threw out the fishing rod and tried it, but the shrimp in the water still ignored him.

Qi Mu looked back and suddenly felt a little different. Qin Rouyi was obviously standing there, wearing a red dress, the color was out of place with the surroundings, but when she looked at it, she still felt natural and harmonious, as if she was completely integrated with this landscape. This wonderful feeling was just like when Qin Murong turned him upside down before.

Thinking of this, Qi Mu stood up, looked at it intently, and saw that around Qin Rouyi's body, there was a white air current, like mist, although it was blurry, but it could still be seen if you looked closely.

When Qin Rouyi was fishing, the air flow on her body merged into the water, and then returned to her, and in this circle, a prawn was caught again. Just caught a few shrimps like this, Qin Rouyi looked back at Qi Mu, turned around and left.

Qi Mu saw it in his eyes, and his heart suddenly changed: Is she here to help me? But I didn't say anything, I just caught a few shrimp, how can I understand?

Qi Mu thought back to the air flow on Qin Rouyi's body just now, and remembered Zhang Tiansheng's description of the Qi Pulse Gate, and then thought of the wonderful fish here, and suddenly had an inexplicable thought in his heart: Qi Pulse cultivation, you can know the movement of the human body's breath, and natural things should also have their own breath, Qin Rouyi's cultivation of Qi Pulse must know the flow of the breath of these fish and shrimp, and if you know, you can catch fish and shrimp along the Qi Pulse. When I distinguish carefully, I can vaguely see the breath on Qin Rouyi's body, so if I look closely, can I also sense the breath of the swimming fish?
