Chapter 4 Refining and refining gas
The day is just dawning, and it is dripping.
The flowing water of the spring day washed over the entire Xishi Village, and the old man Lin got up early, and every time the spring rain continued, his left leg began to ache faintly. Sitting on the stone pier at the door, the Niushou Mountain in the distance was covered with a layer of white mist.
Guang Zhai got out of bed and freshened up, with the consciousness of modern people, he pays more attention to personal hygiene. Although the dwelling was simple, crude yellow salt could still be supplied, and it could only be used to clean teeth. Old man Lin was also a little heartbroken when he saw him use salt to clean at first. After all, the distribution for each family is limited, but in his former status, he is not so precious as coarse salt.
Guang Zhai sat down next to Old Man Lin, looking at the mountain range where he was, and could vaguely see the big tree at the entrance of the village. In the wind and rain, the branches and leaves danced. Rainy days always make people melancholy, sigh.
"Have you read that book?" Old Man Lin saw him, and sat with him blankly looking at the mountain peaks in the distance, thinking to himself, it was time to start to let him start to step into the path of cultivation.
Guang Zhai took out the book from his arms, looked at it carefully, and opened the top of the page to read. "Essence, qi, and spirit correspond to the five organs of the human body, the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. Immortal cultivators regard the five internal organs in the body as the source of the body's strength. By constantly extracting the aura in the weather, it is incorporated into the five internal organs and slowly strengthened. Makes the acupuncture points around the body full, strong and free of blockages. Gradually, he reached the realm of self-forgetfulness, and his body was as soft and soft as a baby sleeping. Breathe slowly and slowly when you are still and stop slowly. Mud Pill Palace began to condense spiritual power......"
Old man Lin saw Guang Zhai looking at the book attentively, and he didn't know if the child understood the meaning, it took him a full year to feel the dantian for the first time. His qualifications are limited, but he is fortunate to be admitted to the sect. With the help of the Zongmen Pill, it only took him a year, and this achievement was only inferior.
"Boy, you read the book roughly, you start with meditation. After sensing the dantian, looking for an opportunity, the two of us went to the periphery of Niushou Mountain, where the branches and leaves were luxuriant, the aura was naturally abundant, and some spiritual grass grew naturally. When the time comes, pluck it for you to take and see if it can elicit your spiritual roots. Old man Lin said presence.
"Meditation?" Guang Zhai was so strange, this is for me to learn to meditate as a monk, so that I can cultivate the truth? Is it so simple. Thinking about it, he closed his eyes and sat up with his hands folded.
Old man Lin was stunned, what does this kid's gesture mean. Could it be that it was written in a book? No, he had also visited this book roughly. Could it be that this kid really has Huigen, he has never seen anyone so quiet when he was in the sect. Shaking his head, he didn't think much about it, leaned aside and pretended to sleep.
In the darkness, Guang Zhai felt a stream of heat coming from his arm, slowly climbing up to the back of his head. His eyes began to burn, and the white dots of light swam around like small tadpoles, concentrating on these tadpoles. As if frightened, the white dots of light began to scatter in all directions, and Guang Zhai's consciousness suddenly loosened, and he suddenly woke up from his state of silence.
Old Man Lin was also secretly surprised to see that he had lasted for three hours for the first time in silence. Is this kid more talented than me? Seeing Guang Zhai wake up, he eagerly asked him if he felt anything.
"I felt a warm current. Before Guang Zhai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Old Man Lin.
"Warm current? You felt the warm current the first time you entered the meditation! How about it, did you feel the dantian?"
"Dantian?" Guang Zhai was confused, the warm current rushed straight to his Baihui acupoint, and he suddenly felt those tadpole-like white points of light, Dantian didn't feel it at all.
"No, this warm current rushed up to my Baihui acupoint, I saw some white points of light, and when I tried to gather them, my consciousness suddenly disconnected. Said with a helpless shrug.
Old man Lin was also confused when he heard this, is this kind of qualification good or not? The first time he entered the meditation, he felt the warm current, Baihui acupoint? Impossible, why did he feel it Baihui acupoint. He couldn't figure it out, and began to babble in pieces. Is it because of the lack of the aid of the elixir? No, it seems that I can only go to Niushou Mountain alone these days. Although his cultivation has been lost, but the periphery is still difficult for him, these villagers don't know Baoshan, and they don't know how to avoid those beasts, but they are not, he has set foot in the cultivation realm, and the periphery of Niushou Mountain is naturally easy for him.
Guang Zhai saw that Old Man Lin was still thinking hard, and it seemed that he didn't know what was going on. Stand up, um, your own eyes, you can see through the fog, and you can see through the white fog, even if it is still a little blurry. Dantian didn't feel it, and he didn't seem to have gained nothing.
Well, is it because of the geographical environment? Guang Zhai remembered that in the previous world, those Taoists who pursued immortality, or monks. You will find the so-called treasure land of excellent feng shui, enlightenment and meditation. In this village, where is the best place for feng shui, Guang Zhai thought about it, under the big tree at the entrance of the village, he used to sit under that big tree. By the way, the tree at the entrance of the village grows thick and dense, and I often see the influence of those towering wolf-reaching trees on Niushou Mountain, and I have never felt that the tree at the entrance of the village has anything special. In this way, apart from this tree, this tree is the largest and densest in the area of Xishi Village.
Feng Shui treasure land, in fact, is also the place where the aura gathers. The tree at the entrance of Xishi Village, it is said that the first generation of village chief led the villagers to settle down, I think it should be because of this geographical location, looking at the towering and dense trees, I think that the geographical environment here should be relatively stable, otherwise why does this tree grow so well. This village is located with this tree.
Guang Zhai didn't think much about it, so he walked towards the old tree at the entrance of the village. The drizzle fell on his shoulders, and a delicate touch came from his hands. The spring rain continued, and although the rain was light, it still slowly soaked the sackcloth on his body.
Looking at this old tree, Guang Zhai lost his mind for no reason. Turning his mind, he sat up cross-legged under the trunk, and this time he did not subconsciously put his hands together, but placed them on his knees, and began to meditate.
Time passed, and the spring rain gradually receded. The children of the village began to come alive. Suddenly, all kinds of laughter spread in the village.
The children who were playing and playing suddenly found Guang Zhai sitting under the tree and began to point.
"Brother, look, why did he sit there motionless, is he asleep?" asked Xiaohu beside him curiously. Stared at Guang Zhai curiously, did he really fall asleep, why didn't he go home to sleep, in case he got sick and had to drink those bitter potions, thinking of the bitter taste, his mouth subconsciously sipped.
Xiaohu also saw the little mute sitting under the tree, frowning slightly, this kid was always inexplicable, and he didn't play with them. I completely forgot that I was only two years older than Guang Zhai.
"Shallow, leave him alone. Let me tell you, I just heard from my father that the old people in the village and the village chief decided to invite a martial arts instructor to come to the village to teach martial arts, and when we grow up to be more powerful than our fathers, we can go and catch even bigger beasts. Everyone in the village had enough to eat. ”
Although they are still young, the children in the whole village still know that it is a good thing to practice martial arts, so that their fathers will be less injured when they go hunting in the future. Well, if you have to work hard, you must become very powerful, so that your mother will not cry every time she sees her father's injured body.
"Is there any money in the village, I heard that it costs a lot of money to practice martial arts?"
Xiaohu spared his head, and he didn't know what to say, but when he saw his sister looking at him with bright eyes, if he couldn't say anything, it would be embarrassing.
"Hmm...... , The village chief must be rich, grandpa said that it was the ancestors of the village chief who led us to settle here, and the village chief must be a capable person, yes, it must be like this......" Xiaohu said in an uncertain tone.
Although I didn't understand it, I was even happier when I saw what my brother said. In the blink of an eye, I forgot about the little mute who was still sleeping under the tree. Follow my brother in the village to call his friends out to play.
It is said that in the village at this time, the centenarians of those years were sitting together. The village chief called everyone over this time, naturally discussing the matter of inviting the head of the martial arts sect.
"Old man Li, your family is a relatively wealthy family in the village, over the years, your eldest son is the hunting captain of the village, every time you hunt and share the meat of the beast, the animal skins are taken and sold by your family, and there is a little surplus money for several generations. ”
The village elder said that he and Old Man Li were the only ones in the village who could co-authorize this teaching fund. The other old men just listened quietly, unable to interrupt. After all, it was the ancestors of the village chief who led everyone to settle here, and he and others were very respectful, and besides, his family really couldn't come up with the money. In the past few generations, the captain of the hunting team has been in the hands of the old man Li's family, and the ancestors of the old man Li have practiced martial arts for several years, and it has been passed down from generation to generation, and the men in the family are naturally much stronger than the rest of the village.
Old man Li lowered his head and pondered, the movement in Niushou Mountain has been getting bigger and bigger recently, although his father has passed down the martial arts, but it is not as good as those who practice martial arts full-time. Today, there are many more generations in the village than before, and they have been recuperating for so many years. It's time for a change. Let the children be strong, so that the village will develop better.
"Village Chief, that's what you said. In my generation, there are more and more children, and every family can afford to feed their children. We can't let the next generation just know how to work the fields. In this matter, my Li family will definitely give full support. ”
Listening to Old Man Li's words, the other old people in the village also nodded one after another, although they have been like this all their lives, but now they can barely solve the problem of food and clothing, so they naturally have to start thinking about the way out for the next generation. After all, they are not sure what will happen in the future, so they will take this period of time when the Niushou Mountain is not peaceful. They also started to get anxious.
The village chief bowed his head and signaled that since Old Man Li understood things and knew that if the village wanted to survive, it had to rely on the next generation. His ancestors were actually cultivators, although he didn't understand why he gave up cultivating immortals and brought the villagers to settle here. Over the years, the lineage has been broken years ago. I think that the ancestors didn't have a fairy fate, but they still had some knowledge of it. Now the remaining savings, plus Old Man Li's family. It's enough to hire a martial arts instructor. The idea of cultivating immortals did not dare to move at all, just kidding, how could it be so easy to cultivate immortals. It is already a matter of burning high incense to produce an immortal cultivator in the village, how could those immortals look down on ordinary people like themselves. The village chief shook his head, this is simply impossible.
"Then it's decided, I'll go out with Old Man Li these days to invite the head of martial arts to come to the village. Old man Li, let your eldest son accompany us for a while. ”
After the village chief consulted with the people, they dispersed. I had to start packing my own bags, and my only son never came back when he went hunting in the mountains a few years earlier. After the daughter-in-law heard the news, she was depressed for a while and passed away. Lin'er didn't have time to give birth. Now, he is the only lonely old man left in the family. Thinking about it, I felt bored for a while, and walked towards the entrance of the village.
A group of children were vaguely playing at the entrance of the village, and Xiaohu told the other friends about the village to ask the head of the village, and everyone felt very happy and had even more fun. Every child will have their own martial arts dream in their hearts. Now, they feel like their dreams are coming true.
The village chief slowly crossed his steps to the entrance of the village, looking at the children in front of him laughing and laughing, and the wrinkled face showed a comforting smile, this is the new force of the next generation. The future of the village depends on them.
I saw the village chief coming over from afar, and ran over happily, surrounding the village chief's grandfather.
"Grandpa the village chief, is it true that Brother Xiaohu said that the village should invite the head of the village to practice martial arts? ”
The other children heard the shallow words and gathered around the village chief, wondering if it was true. The village chief touched his beard, since the children were so interested in practicing martial arts. Talk to them yourself.
"Of course it's true, tomorrow Grandpa will set off to ask the head of the martial arts sect, and he will come back soon, you have to wait in the village obediently. Martial arts is a hard job, and you have to persevere. ”
The other children were about to speak, but Xiaohu was the first to jump out. Said eagerly.
"I'm not afraid of hardship, my mother said that I am already half an adult, I want to work hard to practice martial arts, and catch more prey for the village in the future, so that everyone in the village can have a share. I want to become stronger than the head of the sect, and I want to lead the village to become more prosperous. ”
The village chief touched Xiaohu's head with a smile, if he had a grandson, he would be so big. Not bad, not bad.
"Well, is that little mute going to practice martial arts with us? You see, he's been sitting under the tree and sleeping all afternoon, and he hasn't woken up yet. Shallow and focused on Guang Zhai's body again. Although I have been playing with my friends, I am still curious to glance at Zhai from time to time. He's been sitting for so long, why hasn't he woken up, doesn't his ass feel pain?
When the village chief heard the shallow words, he couldn't help but turn his face to look at Guang Zhai, who was sitting cross-legged under the tree, this child? At the beginning, he followed the lame old man to the village, and assigned them a place to live, and the people in the village also helped to send some daily necessities. At that time, although the child's face was dirty, the old man was also unkempt. But he noticed that the child's clothes were made of expensive fabric. But he didn't ask much, and came to this village, no matter what kind of people were in the past, here. It's all just to live incognito. It's grown so big.
The surrounding sounds Guang Zhai didn't hear at all, and at this moment, he was still trying to catch those white tadpoles. Despite failing again and again, he was not discouraged. Whenever I felt that my consciousness could not support it, I gave up the idea of grabbing those tadpoles and quietly meditated to restore my energy.
Dusk came unexpectedly, the village chief had already gone back, and the children were scattered at the entrance of the village to play. In the end, only Xiaohu and his sister Qianqian remained. Qianqian was still curiously observing the little mute sitting under the tree, Xiaohu had no way to take him, so he went back first.
The small white tadpoles became denser and denser, and Guangzhai felt like he was about to catch them. Be more focused on approaching them. It was almost a moment, the highly concentrated spirit began to collapse, and with a "pop", Guang Zhai felt that his headache was about to explode, and at the last moment, although those little tadpoles ran out, a tiny white light was still collected by him into the Mud Pill Palace. Then his closed eyes opened, and a white light flashed in his eyes. Then he got up and walked towards the village.
Qianqian had been staring at the little mute under the tree, and when he was looking at it, he suddenly saw a white light shoot out of Guang Zhai's eyes, although it was very short, he was still seen by Qianqian. At this moment, her mouth was wide open, and she watched the little mute walk past her and slowly disappear in the night.
"Ahh
......
