Chapter 15: Xiaoxue's Home
I began to pack up and organize the magic weapons, and when I looked closely, the ancient realm was still exactly the same as before, but when I injected a strong enough aura, it was like suddenly coming to life, the metallic spiritual power was greatly improved, and the mirror surface became brighter, although it was not as clear as the modern glass mirror, but it was far brighter than the ordinary copper mirror.
I didn't know that Weishenme would seriously hurt Xinyu if she took a photo, and I was embarrassed to ask it to turn into a tree again for me to take a photo. Thinking about it, the ancient mirror has a strong metallic spiritual power in the activated state, and at that time, Xinyu became a large laurel tree to present wood attributes, and the gold can overcome wood, and the ancient mirror originally had a restraint effect on demons, probably so, right? In the future, if you have the opportunity to meet other demons, you will know if you try again.
We packed our things and walked back, and we didn't go far before we met Huang Yilan. It turned out that he had gathered the corpses of the villagers and burned them all the houses, but this afternoon the black smoke attracted some people, and he stayed nearby, he did not want to be seen by outsiders, and he did not know where to go, so he came along the canyon to find us.
I also told us what happened, but Zuihou had a headache about how to place him. Ouyang Zhenfei and Ling Fengpiao are both good people, and they squeezed their eyebrows at me, hoping that I could accept Huang Yilan as a junior disciple and strengthen the team, but I saw that Huang Yilan's physique was a little weird, and his heart might be a little extreme, so he hesitated.
Compass suddenly spoke: "Amitabha, is Lord Huang willing to be a monk?" โ
Huang Yilan shook his head again and again: "I'm not a monk, I'm going to find my relatives, but I don't know how to find it, and I don't have any clues......
We all sympathized with him, and Compass said, "I don't have anything important, why don't I go with you?" โ
This time, Huang Yilan finally agreed, and the compass had the demeanor of a monk who could afford to let go, and immediately said to me: "Then don't leave it at that, let's go." โ
I hurriedly asked, "You don't leave me contact information?" โ
"If you have a fate, you don't have to ask for it." Compass is still the same sentence.
I'm not so free, the sea of people is vast, what are the chances of meeting again? This thing is too ethereal, I said: "You must be looking nearby, how about we meet at the original site of Laozhaigou today next year?" โ
"Good!" Compass and Huang Yilan agreed, and left without asking us what we were doing here or where we were going.
Before the two figures disappeared, Ling Fengpiao suppressed his voice and asked anxiously, "Senior brother, don't you accept Huang Yilan?" was abducted by the little monk in vain! โ
Ouyang Zhenfei immediately said: "That is, he is such a special person, he must have special abilities, he looks like he is only twenty years old when he is in his thirties, and the compass also says that he is now equivalent to a baby, that is to say, when others are still breastfeeding, he has already graduated from college and has more than 30 years of experience, what an advantage!" โ
"Take him in, you go and help him find his relatives, won't you?" I glared at the two of them, "You think I can't see his advantage?" But he grew up in such a special environment, and has been in a very depressed state, once this repression is released, the psychology may be seriously distorted in the opposite direction, with his extraordinary patience and acting skills, we can't really understand him at all, can I teach this mastery to such a person? โ
Xiao Xue said: "Your senior brother has good intentions, deliberately let Kompasu go with him, let the little monk's peaceful atmosphere dissolve his anger, and let him take the little monk as an example to establish a new outlook on life during his confusion, so that even if he can't find his relatives, he will not become extreme and narrow-minded, so that he is the most haode." โ
Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei nodded as if they were pecking rice, admiring me so much. In fact, there is another reason I didn't tell them, that is, intuitively, I was a little inexplicably uneasy about Huang Yilan, and I didn't worry about teaching him the yin and yang tricks, so I handed him over to the compass first - anyway, the job of the compass is to ferry people, and it is a good thing that he will not lose his job.
Yutu Xinyu also hid in Xiaoxue's Qiankun bag, and we climbed up the cliff, and Xiaoxue guided the way to the cave where she once lived. We left the fault and canyon area, and the terrain was getting higher and higher, but fortunately, a full moon hung high in the sky, and Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei could barely see the road.
Stop and go all the way, climb over a few small peaks, and come to the top of a high cliff in the afternoon of the next day, as far as the eye can see, there are cliffs, and look down at the fog lock deep stream, I don't know how deep it is. Then I turned over a very inconspicuous small valley, and when I got to the bottom, I suddenly felt a quiet atmosphere blowing in my face, which was refreshing.
The stone walls on both sides of this place are upside down, the flowers and vines hang on the high place, and there is a clear small pool at the bottom, and a small waterfall pours down, broken into thousands of white flowers and falls into the pool. Although the sound of the water is loud, there is a sense of tranquility, although the stone walls and the plants on them block some of the light, there is no sense of oppression, nor does it feel gloomy, just right.
The waterhole has dozens of square meters, one side close to the small waterfall is sparkling and scaly, and the other half is flat like a mirror, and a few fallen flowers float on the water, which is picturesque. Suddenly, a fish three fingers wide and as white as silver jumped out of the water, fluttering a wave that shattered half of the natural jade......
"Wow, there's fish!"
All three of us cheered, drooling wildly, and we couldn't blame us for wanting to eat fish, which had been eaten dry food for days, and had never eaten fresh meat, and the fish looked so delicious.
Xiaoxue didn't scold us, and said quite proudly: "There are a lot of fish in this pool, but they are all clever and not easy to catch." โ
It looked like it had been caught before, so no wonder it felt the same way as us, and Xiaoxue left my body and jumped under the stone wall, and then I realized that there was a hole there, because there was a rock outside blocking most of the hole, so it was not easy to see.
I hurried along, and the entrance to the cave was open with a slight bend, and the inside was quite wide and complicated, and the ground was quite dry. Before I could see the structure inside, Xiaoxue screamed: ", what about my Tai Sui, who stole my Tai Sui!" โปยง๏ผ ๏ผ๏ผโฆโฆโฆโ
Khan, I've never seen her so angry, not only because Tai Sui was stolen, but also because of the anger that her home was ransacked. But her "home" is not fortified, there is no house number, anyone can come in, and if something is taken away, it can't be considered stealing?
Ling Fengpiao and Ouyang Zhenfei followed, and also scolded, running all the way over, not only to avoid trouble, but also to taste the taste of Tai Sui, maybe they can improve their skills, strengthen their bodies, etc., but they didn't expect to be in the air, how could they not be annoyed?
I walked to Xiaoxue's side to take a closer look, there were no human or animal footprints, no dirt pits or anything like that, it didn't look like it had been stolen by someone, or it was taken away a long time ago, it had been more than 300 years, and it was not strange that it was not at all strange.
I said, "Okay, don't scold, let's pack up and settle down." If you want to rely on taking elixir to improve your cultivation, immortality, etc., it is not reliable in the first place, but you still have laid a good foundation step by step. โ
Xiaoxue was soon relieved, she couldn't eat without a physical entity now, it was originally for us to eat, but now I don't care, and she has no reason to be emotional.
Ling Fengpiao still refused to give up: "Sister Fox Fairy, I believe you didn't lie to us, you must have been stolen!" โ
Ouyang Zhenfei then said: "Yes, we must investigate deeply, and we must find the thief......"
I was furious: "You two shut up for me, now punish you to clean the inside of the cave, and then arrange the things we brought in order, and finish dinner before dark, and then start practicing." Starting tomorrow, I will start practicing martial arts at dawn every morning, cook and eat two hours later, and start teaching another hour later......"
I arranged a day, and the free time I gave them was only two hours in total, and these two hours were also used for fishing, hunting, picking wild fruits and digging wild vegetables, and the rest of the time was either practicing or studying, and even sleeping time had to be in a state of semi-practice...... They thought they could relax when they got here, but they didn't think that I would be training like this? Rolled his eyes and fell.
Isolated from the world, without any entertainment and enjoyment, coupled with harsh training, it is only through the two of them that their impetuous minds can be tempered and their foundations firmly established. Of course, I also have to practice like an ascetic, and strive to break through to the third layer of the Yin and Yang Technique as soon as possible before I can carry out the Big Dipper Receiving Method.
Xiaoxue's "cave house" is indeed very secret, not easy to be discovered, and it is spacious enough, and the space inside is not smaller than my house. The entrance to the cave is considered a hall, and there is an ear hole on the left, which is considered a single room, which is assigned to Ouyang Zhenfei; The right side is divided into two holes before and after, like a suite, Ling Feng floats in the inner cave, and I live in the outer cave, just supervising the two of them.
I walked around the neighborhood and saw a lot of edible wild fruits, wild vegetables, birds, beasts, snakes and insects, and there were fish in the pool, so we should be able to persevere. I have learned a lot of experience in wild survival with the second master, Lao Linzi, and I can get by in terms of identifying herbs and plants, catching wild beasts, and recuperating food, and now it can come in handy.
Thinking of Lao Lin, I can't help but think of Lin Mei again, if only she were here...... I already vaguely guessed the reason for her departure, but I don't want to believe it's true, can I really find her again?
Back in the cave, the two of them had already settled down and made a simple dinner with the ingredients they had brought. I wasn't in the mood to eat, so I started tidying up where I slept after eating a little bit, and then I started urging the two of them to practice, and I started to practice too.
The practice of yin and yang is divided into two stages, first collecting the external aura or the essence of the sun and the moon, and then refining it in the body. The former must be carried out with a high degree of concentration while awake, and the latter can be carried out in a semi-sleeping state, of course, it can also be done at the same time, but for the sake of efficiency, I generally collect qi in the first half of the night, and half-sleep and half-practice in the second half of the night, refining and purifying the collected aura.
It is also possible to practice in the secret room, but in order to improve the effect of qi collection, it should be done in a place where the aura is strong and flowing. There is also a full moon tonight, so we chose to meditate on a stone in the middle of the valley, and when the moon shines overhead, it will have a multiplier effect.
Not long after we started practicing, before the full moon had risen, I suddenly sensed a large amount of aura empowerment coming in, just like a full moon on the head. I opened my eyes and saw Jade Rabbit Xinyu standing on the ground not far away, her body emitting a soft white light, and the moonlight breath was extremely strong, which was better than the night of the fifteenth full moon!
