Chapter 66: The Ascetic
The aura entrenched in the cave continued to converge towards Xiao Qi's body, almost condensing into a pale cyan ball, protecting her in it.
Xiao Ming didn't dare to approach and observed closely.
Seeing that Xiao Qi's face gradually became a little more expressive, and the beads of sweat on his forehead became bigger and bigger, he didn't know what kind of pain he was experiencing, and he was even more worried in his heart.
But he had no choice but to watch Xiao Qi's painful appearance.
This lasted for nearly two hours, and Xiao Qi's face gradually began to improve, and the aura entrenched around her was incorporated little by little, and gradually became weaker.
After this advancement, Xiao Ming could clearly feel that the aura in the cave had thinned a lot, and seeing that Xiao Qi's state had gradually stabilized, he was also relieved.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Qi finally opened his eyes.
Xiao Ming hurriedly came to his side.
"Xiao Qi, how do you feel, is there anything uncomfortable?"
Xiao Ming looked at her worriedly, such a young child had already advanced, and Xiao Ming didn't know what danger there would be in this regard, so he was anxious.
Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "Baba, Xiao Qi is a little hungry." ”
She touched her stomach, and her clothes looked like she was hungry.
When Xiao Ming heard this, he suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Sure enough, it was a snack food, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to eat.
Xiao Ming said helplessly: "Dad will help you check your body first, and I'll do it for you when I get home." ”
Xiao Qi nodded obediently.
"Don't worry, Xiao Qi doesn't feel uncomfortable. ”
"Really, do you feel uncomfortable?"
Xiao Qi shook his head, an embarrassed smile on his face.
"It's just that Xiao Qi is hungry. ”
Xiao Ming repeatedly confirmed that she was fine, and she was really hungry.
I'm afraid that this advance has also consumed all her physical strength.
"It's okay, Baba will take you back to eat. ”
As he spoke, he picked up Xiao Qi and walked outside.
As soon as he walked out of the cave, Xiao Qi turned his head to look in another direction.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Qi shook his head.
"Baba, the bird is over there. ”
"Birds?"
When Xiao Ming heard this, he was a little puzzled, and looked in the direction she pointed, but saw nothing.
Where are the birds?
Xiao Qi said again: "It's there, come over quickly." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Ming saw the fiery red bird that had brought them here before flying over from afar, stopping on a tree branch, looking down at them.
Xiao Ming was even more surprised, before this, this bird had also come to them a few times, but Xiao Qi didn't notice it at those times, this time it had just advanced, and the bird hadn't approached yet, so she noticed it, could this be the cultivation of the mixed yuan?
Looking at all sides, hearing in all directions, the situation within a radius of dozens of miles can be clearly understood.
Seeing this, Xiao Ming was even more envious in his heart, if he worked hard, after a while, he should be able to get the realm of Xiao Qi, right?
He made up his mind, saw that the bird was just standing in the treetops and watching them, without making any moves, nodded at him, and turned away.
The fire spirit bird watched them go away, and then flapped its wings, hovered in place for a few weeks, and finally left.
Just when Xiao Ming was busy cultivating, the Long family's auction gradually kicked off.
From time to time, Xiao Ming would listen to Long Chengfei mention the current mortal cultivation, and Xiao Ming gradually understood this aspect.
The mortal world has lost a lot of the inheritance of the method of cultivating immortals, and the last person who has successfully ascended has been nearly a thousand years ago.
Due to the turbulent historical pattern, the method of cultivating immortals has also been continuously lost in the inheritance, until now, there is not even a systematic cultivation method and a method to measure the strength of cultivation, each family guards its own remaining cultivation method, and offers it as a treasure, and is unwilling to make it public.
Therefore, even the Long family didn't know how high the cultivation of other people was, and only after the formal competition could they distinguish a superior.
In addition to the Long family, there are several other families who are also studying the cultivation method, followed by some ascetics who have lived in seclusion in the mountains all year round, and they will all appear in this auction.
Xiao Ming listened to Long Chengfei's words, and was a little unsure whether the cultivation method he saw in the cave was the same as theirs, so he didn't speak.
It wasn't until two days before the auction that Xiao Ming went to the venue with him, and finally saw the second cultivator besides Long Chengfei.
Long Chengfei had just taken him to the auction house, and before he entered the door, he saw a man dressed as a monk sitting cross-legged at the door, with a hat on his head, and a bowl with a missing mouth in front of him, as if begging.
Xiao Ming glanced at her suspiciously, only to feel that this person was sitting like a clock, although he couldn't see his face, his demeanor was extraordinary.
Immediately afterwards, he saw Long Chengfei standing respectfully in front of the human body, stopped, and bent slightly towards him.
The other party did not react, and Long Chengfei was not angry, and walked with Xiao Mingchao inside.
Xiao Ming was very surprised in his heart.
"Who's that man?"
Long Chengfei explained to him: "The auction will be held in two days, this time Grandpa has made a lot of money, and many ascetics who have cultivated in the deep mountains have also rushed over, and the one just now is a monk in the deep mountains, and it is the first time to come to our auction." ”
Although the Long family provided food, clothing, shelter and transportation for all the monks, these ascetics entered the Tao with a hard life, preferring to sit on the side of the road rather than hotels and houses. ”
Xiao Ming nodded, no wonder when he came in just now, he felt that there was something wrong with the aura on that person's body, and he was not an ordinary person.
Long Chengfei continued: "Most of the penances are higher than the family members, but these people cultivate the unity of mind and body, and if they don't touch their reverse scales, they will rarely get angry. You can rest assured, this time a few people are here for the auction, and there will be no conflicts with others. What we're really worried about are members of several other families. ”
At this point, he frowned at some thought.
Xiao Ming asked, "What kind of family are there from?"
"You'll know when you see them. Long Chengfei didn't seem to like those people and didn't want to talk about it.
Walking with Xiao Mingchao, because the lot is different this time, it is not set up in those auction houses that Xiao Ming knows, but on the second basement floor of the Longjia Hotel.
Before again, Xiao Ming didn't know that there was something else here.
The arrangement of the auction has been completed, Xiao Ming came to the backstage and saw that Old Man Long was checking the information in the opponent.
There were a few boxes on his desk, and after seeing Xiao Ming come in to greet him, he said: "Little Brother Xiao, seeing that this auction is about to start, and other lots have already been sent over, ready to be collected and put into storage to evaluate the auction reserve price, what do you want to auction, we should also prepare in advance." ”
