Chapter 8 Self-cultivation
Time passed by, and before I knew it, it was already evening. Garvin got out of bed again, but he would wake up hungry. When I went out and walked to the restaurant, I saw that the cooked meal had been served on the table, and there was a note next to it.
"There is still in the pot of food, eat it while it is hot, I will go out for two days, don't wait for me, take care of yourself. ☻ "Aunt Nai.
Putting down the note and touching his rumbling belly, Jiawen sat down unceremoniously to eat.
After a while, Lucy came downstairs and came here looking for the smell of food.
"Okay, Jiawen, I don't even call me if there is something delicious, and I actually eat alone here. Lucy pouted unhappily after seeing Gavin.
"Woo....... ”
Jiawen's mouth was full and he couldn't speak.
"Goo, goo, ha. He chewed vigorously a few times and swallowed the food with a glass of water.
"Didn't you say a few days ago that you won't eat dinner in the future and want to lose weight?"
"I'm a wounded now, do you know about the wounded? Lucy sat down angrily, snatched the turkey leg from Gavin's hand and said.
"What to eat, what to make, this chicken foot is for you. Garvin unscrewed the chicken feet and placed them in Lucy's bowl, then brought the whole turkey to him.
"Okay, you Jiawen, dare to touch the old lady's meat, I'm not done with you. Lucy said and rushed over with her teeth and claws.
"First come, first served," Garvin flashed to the side with the turkey.
"Don't run, you stop me. ”
The two circled around the dining table.
......
After the meal, Lucy went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Jiawen lay on the bed and looked through the meditation book given by Aunt Nai.
After a long time, I closed the book, and now Jiawen can probably understand the meaning.
The book is about how to abandon the distractions in one's mind and combine the mind and body in order to achieve a state of perception.
This state does not belong to any of our existing five senses, but a new "sixth sense".
This feeling cannot be described, and this is the ultimate purpose of meditation.
Strike a pose, cross your legs, and sit on the bed in a lotus sitting position. Keep your head held high, your chin slightly tucked, your waist straight but not bent, and one hand stacked on top of the other, palm up.
Then take a deep breath to calm yourself and remove distractions from your mind.
......
"Whew!" said Jiawen lying on the bed in a large shape.
"It's so hard to think about nothing in your head. "After a few minutes of meditation, Jiawen couldn't stand it.
On the bed, Jiawen lay there motionless. There are many thoughts, but only the one who remembers the wild boar.
When that fate was not in his hands, remembering the powerlessness of that state at that time, Jiawen sat up from the bed again.
Strength is the only thought on Jiawen's mind right now.
Get back into your posture and let go of your mind.
One minute, two minutes, more than ten minutes passed, and Jiawen was still motionless. At this moment, there was a slight snoring sound from Jiawen's side, which was small but still audible.
I saw that his eyes were closed, and Yanran looked like he was asleep. Well, it's really easy to fall asleep after emptying your mind, but I don't know what kind of expression Jiawen will have when he knows his current state.
......
Four days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is a sunny day with sunny skies and a good day.
In the manor, Lucy sat alone in a daze. And Gavin is holding the knife from before to bleed the rabbit.
"Brother Jiawen, why hasn't my mother come back yet?"
Next to the room, little Lucy held her chin with one hand, looked in the direction of the wooden door and asked Jiawen.
"Come on, I have a hunch that I'll be back today. Jiawen put down the rabbit in his hand and comforted.
Speaking of which, Aunt Nai goes out for a maximum of one day at a time, and it will be capped in two days at most. It was never said that there would be anything like this time, and there has been no news for so many days.
Not only Lucy, but even Jiawen was a little anxious, but now that Aunt Nai is not at home, he is the backbone, and no matter how anxious he is, he can't mess up.
Besides, Aunt Nai may have something important, and she can't get out, and it's useless for the two of them to be in a hurry here.
Suddenly, the rabbit bullet in his hand jumped a few times, attracting his attention back again.
Just yesterday, Jiawen finally made a breakthrough. The meditation cultivation was successful, and he reached the state of the "sixth sense" that is mysterious and mysterious.
According to the description in the book, he had reached the necessary spiritual strength for mage cultivation, and it took three days, and because there was no comparison reference, he didn't know if his speed was fast.
However, after reaching the C-level spiritual strength, with the restraint and neutralization of spiritual power, the energy that can be stored in the body has been improved, and the demon knife can finally come in handy.
So this morning, the impatient Jiawen began his experiment.
took out the knife, the blade was dark red with an evil aura, and the little rabbit trembled with fright.
Gently cut through the rabbit's skin, only to see blood flowing out, but it was strangely engulfed in the blade.
At this time, Jiawen really felt a subtle stream of heat pass through the hilt of the knife through his arm, and finally flow into the location of his heart.
His whole body was warm and fluttering, and he felt that his state was instantly full. The waist doesn't hurt, the legs don't ache, and it is estimated that it is not even a matter of going up to ten floors.
But on the other hand, the little rabbit already has more air in and less air out.
Smacked his lips, and decided that it was you, red stewed rabbit meat.
After the red stewed rabbit meat was ready, Jiawen looked at the flame that had not yet disappeared and started to experiment again.
The blade of the knife skipped over the flames, and the flames suddenly extinguished with a pop, followed by another wave of energy.
This energy was different from the previous one, and finally flowed into the position of the dantian, and Jiawen felt as if he could mobilize it at any time. Stretching out the palm of his hand, the intention moved with his heart, and the energy flowed back from the dantian, and many small red points of light suddenly floated on the palm, and finally accumulated to a certain extent, and the sound of "Teng" turned into a small fireball.
......
After shaving his teeth with a toothpick, Jiawen felt that the meal was not ideal, and the rabbit meat always felt that it was not so delicious, as if there was something missing.
Could it have something to do with the knife, by the way, Aunt Nai said that the knife was made by the vampire's fangs, and it sucked away all the essence from the rabbit, so that the rabbit meat would become so unpalatable. It seems that this knife will not be used for game hunting in the future.
After several trial and error, Jiawen understood what the knife was for.
All in all, this knife can absorb almost all elemental abilities in terms of energy, and can absorb blood essence in terms of matter, and these two energies can be fed back to the host.
This knife is an artifact for scrap wood. As long as the energy you absorb is not beyond your control, turning over the serf and singing is not a dream, even a salted fish can become stronger.
