Chapter 25 The First Experience of West Lake
As an authentic Jiangnan native, Xu Haibao is naturally no stranger to West Lake. Even if he is in the East China Sea, Xu Haibao has been to the West Lake a lot of times. To some extent, West Lake is also a tourist card in the south of the Yangtze River.
It's just that for Xu Haibao, who came out of the hotel at this moment, he didn't have much mood to enjoy the scenery. Avoiding the cameras around West Lake, Xu Haibao quickly came to the place where he looked good during the day and quickly took off his clothes.
Even if the temperature by the lake is a little low at this time, this temperature doesn't seem to have much impact on Xu Haibao. Leave a pair of anti-slip boxers, put the clothes you take off into a waterproof bag and put them in the nameless bead space.
Everything was ready, Xu Haibao looked around again, and after confirming that there was no one, he quickly jumped into the West Lake. Compared with diving in the sea, Xu Haibao, who went down to the West Lake, felt that the water quality of the West Lake was quite good.
At least walking to the lake, Xu Haibao can also feel that the water element here is abundant. If he has money in the future, Xu Haibao will also consider buying a private villa by the West Lake. But now, hardly even think about it.
The reason is very simple, the detached villas currently located on the shore of West Lake are all rich or expensive. If you want to buy a villa from these people, you can imagine the difficulty. As for the commercial villas on the periphery, Xu Haibao didn't have much interest.
After all, Xu Haibao hopes that the house he lives in can be as close to the water source as possible. In that case, it may also save you the trouble of this kind of sneaky cultivation. But as it stands, he really needs to be careful!
Xu Haibao, who went down to the West Lake, looked at the fish and lakes in the West Lake, and also fished out some space for the nameless pearls. As he had guessed, these freshwater fish could coexist just like marine fish in the Nameless Pearl space.
By the time Xu Haibao emerged from the lake again, he had already appeared on the edge of the island in the middle of the lake. The probe listened carefully, and after making sure that there was no one on the island in the middle of the lake, Xu Haibao carefully landed on the island in the middle of the lake.
Finding a dry place, Xu Haibao pinched a trick, and the water that was originally on his body and pants quickly disappeared. It takes less time to dry a pair of boxers than it does to dry a whole garment.
This is also the reason why Xu Haibao takes off his coat every time he enters the water. This kind of water control technique is also some of the spells learned by cultivating the Xuanshui Technique. With the increase of Xu Haibao's cultivation level, some small spells are still handy to use.
After getting dressed again, Xu Haibao knew that there was not much time left until dawn, so he quickly began to meditate and practice cross-legged. When Xu Haibao began to cultivate, the water spirit qi that had accumulated near the island in the middle of the lake also began to be absorbed.
It's just that Xu Haibao, who was immersed in cultivation, didn't know that when he was meditating and refining qi. In the Yunyin Temple, not far from the West Lake, an old monk who also practiced meditation suddenly opened his eyes.
"There are people in the same path who are cultivating in the West Lake? Look at this aura fluctuation, this person's realm is quite deep!"
Although this old monk sensed that there were people cultivating near the West Lake. But in the end, he still didn't get out of the meditation room, closed his eyes again and continued to practice zazen. And at this moment, Xu Haibao didn't know that anyone was perceiving his existence.
Feeling the water element absorbed into his body, Xu Haibao felt that the cultivation environment here was no worse than that of cultivating in his hometown. Even in Xu Haibao's opinion, the efficiency of water element refining by the West Lake is higher than that by the sea.
This different cultivation experience made Xu Haibao somewhat aware. This may be the difference between seawater and freshwater. The water aura by the sea is a bit manic, while the water aura by the lake is more docile.
This discovery also made Xu Haibao feel. In the future, if you really have the opportunity, you may be able to go to some freshwater lakes with better environmental protection to practice. But his real cultivation ground, the future is only afraid that it is still in the sea.
The reason is simple, most of the freshwater lakes are inland, unless he is really willing to retreat to the mountains and forests. Otherwise, in order to take care of your family and not attract attention, staying at the beach and cultivating is the long-term way.
When the first rays of sunlight appeared in the sky, Xu Haibao, who quickly captured a wisp of purple qi, also seized the time to refine this purple qi of heaven and earth. Every day's cultivation, purple qi brings Xu Haibao the most benefits.
Sometimes, Xu Haibao also wanted to catch more heaven and earth purple qi. It's a pity that absorbing one more piece of Heaven and Earth Purple Qi can't be refined at all with Xu Haibao's current strength, on the contrary, it will produce a very uncomfortable feeling.
Xu Haibao still knows the truth that he can't chew it out. It was precisely after trying that Xu Haibao gave up the idea of catching a few more wisps of heaven and earth purple qi at a time. Steady and steady, capturing a wisp of heaven and earth purple qi every day for cultivation.
With the refining of purple qi, after feeling the aura in his body increase a little, Xu Haibao quickly opened his eyes and looked at the quiet West Lake again. It's just that compared to the tranquility of the lake and the island in the middle of the lake, people began to move around the lake embankment.
Knowing that it was almost time to leave, Xu Haibao took off the coat he had simply put on, and quickly got into the lake from the island in the middle of the lake. Dive to the other side of the lake in one breath, Xu Haibao carefully probed.
After making sure that there was no one to exercise in the morning, he quickly walked to the shore. Put on the clothes that I had changed before, and then walked to the sidewalk of West Lake and began to jog in small steps.
After seeing the old man walking and exercising nearby, Xu Haibao didn't stay long. This kind of situation is actually relatively easy to see in many parks in China today. It's just that there are still relatively few young people who exercise in the morning.
Not long after running around the nearby lake, the originally quiet West Lake slowly became lively. Even on the lake, there are already fishing boats pulling nets. This discovery made Xu Haibao also a little lucky, and he didn't stay on the island in the middle of the lake for a long time.
Otherwise, if people see him on the island in the middle of the lake, I'm afraid that it will also attract people's attention. Thinking of this, Xu Haibao suddenly felt that it was better to stay in his hometown and cultivate. Don't worry, he's different at any time.
Even in Xu Haibao's view, when the spring auction is over and he has money, he plans to rent Washan Island for tourism development first. In that case, during the time he lived on the island, I believe that no one would disturb his cultivation.
If Xu Haibao didn't understand before, why would cultivators choose to avoid the city. At this time, he finally understood that cultivating in the city was indeed a very troublesome thing. In contrast, the deep mountains and wild forests are less suitable for people to disturb.
In addition, the cultivation environment in the city is somewhat different from that of the deep mountains and old forests and uninhabited islands. If you really want to succeed in cultivation, you must also abandon the prosperity of the city and find a truly suitable dojo for cultivation.
With these realizations, Xu Haibao became more and more convinced that it would be more appropriate for him to choose his future dojo on the island. Compared with the camera probes that can be seen everywhere in the city, they are more unrestrained at sea.
When I returned to the hotel after the morning exercise, the hotel attendant who had already gotten up didn't feel any surprise at Xu Haibao who returned to the hotel. After all, Xu Haibao booked a room for two days, and naturally no one cared about entering and leaving the hotel.
As long as you don't come back too late and go out too early, the hotel will not pay much attention to the travelers' early departure and late return. Xu Haibao, who returned to the room to wash up and changed into underwear again, quickly walked out of the hotel again.
At the breakfast shop not far from the hotel, after a simple breakfast, looking at the text message from the mobile phone again, Xu Haibao quickly dialed back. This text message asking him if he had gotten up was naturally sent by his sister Xu Qingya.
"You've already gotten up early! You've eaten breakfast, so you don't have to go to class today?"
"Yes, although the school is closed tomorrow, there are also students who leave the school early today. However, it was more troublesome to ask for leave in advance, so I decided to leave tomorrow anyway. Take the opportunity to spend an extra day in the provincial capital. ”
Listening to his little sister's smiling words, Xu Haibao also felt that college life was indeed more free than high school life. It's just that there is more free time, and many students who have worked hard to get admitted to university no longer concentrate on their studies.
"So what are your plans for today?"
"Brother, why don't you come to our school? I'll take you around our school, how about it?"
Facing Xu Qingya's invitation, Xu Haibao shook his head and said, "I'm not interested! If you don't have classes in the morning, then come out and accompany me to visit the West Lake." After eating, I will take you to visit my company commander again, and by the way, I will pick up my company commander and his daughter.
When I went to his house yesterday, I promised to take his daughter to the children's playground. That girl is very cute, very similar to when you were a child. It's just a blink of an eye, you've changed from a cute little girl to a big girl, what a pity!"
Listening to Xu Haibao's ridicule, Xu Qingya also said with some embarrassment: "Brother, aren't I cute now? You are only three years older than me, when I was a little girl, you were also a little child, okay?"
"Okay, you're a big cutie now, okay? Shall I pick you up, or will you take a taxi by yourself? I'm here at West Lake Square? The weather is good today, I'll take you on a cruise later, are you interested?"
"Yes, but can I bring a classmate?"
"Yes, it can't be a male classmate, right?"
"It's not it! It's Mengchu, you saw it yesterday. When I go back tomorrow, can I take her with me? Her house is from the East China Sea, didn't we just pass by when we went back? I asked her to refund the ticket!"
"You've decided, do I dare to say no? Okay, let's talk about it when you come over!"
For his little sister to bring her best friend over, Xu Haibao was a little surprised, but he didn't stop it. After all, this girl named Mengchu, in terms of intimacy, should be the girl who had the best relationship with her little sister among all the girls yesterday!
