Chapter 16: I'm going to be the dark horse
A lazy afternoon is supposed to be a pleasant time, but when you are young, there will always be more or less things on your body, and it will invisibly hinder the mood of seeing the scenery, but because of this, it is precious.
The girl walked slowly down the hill, and suddenly her steps stopped, and she looked back at the back of the dashing forward.
There was still a bright and fresh smile on her fair face, but there were more tears under her curled eyelashes.
It has always been said in the world that when I was born, it was early spring, everything recovered, and the grass grew and the warbler flew.
The most interesting thing is that it is said that at a certain time, the backyard of the mausoleum was full of flowers, making the whole mausoleum full of fragrance. It's just that the fragrance is fresh and refined, not like a potpourri fragrance but more like a clear spring fragrance.
The sorcerer in the palace said that this is a gift from the spiritual spring next to Baishiyan to this piece of heaven and earth - the spiritual spring has watered all things, and then turned into a living creature of heaven and earth to come to the world, which will be the auspicious spirit of the spirit clan.
The indigenous people of Lingdu are all irrigated by the spiritual spring with the blood of Nuwa, so they will naturally give the most sincere blessings and love to the princess of the Ling clan.
Emperor Ling named her Yuquan'er after the mausoleum, but after her father disappeared and her mother went into retreat, no one ever called her name again.
The young man's question reminded her of this familiar and unfamiliar name.
Thinking that in the future, there will be someone who will call herself that, her heart feels very warm, remembering countless past events, tears naturally fall, fortunately no one sees it.
It was cold in place for a long time, Ling Yumo pursed her lips and wiped the tears in her eyes, until the bright smile at the corner of her mouth rendered her clean face more tender, then turned around and left with the same chic steps.
......
......
The two separated, and Lu Beichen continued to go up the mountain.
Naturally, I came here today not only because of the inspiration of the phrase "read 10,000 books, walk 10,000 miles", but also because I heard some rumors that someone once enlightened here overnight.
And that person is not an old man, but Wang Jinqiao, who first went to the crown prince Jin.
The story of Wang Jinqiao's first enlightenment on the holy mountain has spread thousands of miles, but no one knows what happened that day, only that he does not have much bright spots in his cultivation, except for the phoenix flute that loves him. People once speculated whether it was because of the phoenix flute that Wang Jinqiao was able to realize his first enlightenment.
It's just that this is a historical story after all, there are no witnesses at all, and what remains for the world is infinite conjecture.
......
......
The more you get to the top, the fewer people there are.
The scenery at the top of the mountain is very different from the one below, with more trees and relatively low temperatures.
I don't know when, Lu Beichen suddenly stopped in one place.
There is a pavilion with the word "Listen to the Cold" written on it.
According to the book, this is a pavilion built by the emperor of the previous dynasty, and it used to be a good place for cultivators to gather here. It's just that after the Holy Emperor unified the great cause, there were more and more Taoist temples under the mountain, and the location of the academy was more exquisite, and most of them were some feng shui treasures under the mountain, so fewer and fewer people went up the mountain.
The bottom of the mountain is prosperous, but the mountain is quite clean, like two worlds. Sometimes, when we get used to prosperity, we forget the preciousness of purity and the power that purity brings to human beings.
Because I forget, when I remember, it may be a turning point.
"This pavilion probably bears a lot of stories. Lu Beichen looked at the old traces in the pavilion, and thought of a lot of irrelevant things in his heart.
A mantra-like phrase came to mind.
"I want to see a dark horse. ”
These words kept echoing in his mind, lingering all the time, as if forming a huge force, running back and forth in his meridians, igniting Lu Beichen's fiery heart.
It was almost dusk, the sun was sinking in the west, and the dusk sunset shone on the top of the holy mountain, as if it brought a bit of depression.
Lu Beichen sat down and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The chill is growing, both inside and out.
The reason why the human race is getting stronger day by day is mainly because they have learned to absorb the power of heaven and earth and turn the power of heaven and earth into the power of people. To transform the qi into their own use, cultivators generally need time, but for Lu Beichen, it takes time to explore and precipitate, it needs mental methods to stabilize the qi veins, and there are many things that he doesn't know yet.
There are many reasons for not being able to condense soul thoughts, and Lu Beichen guesses that the most likely is the influence of the cold qi in his body. Although the Divine Stone helped him bypass the cold qi to a certain extent, allowing him to condense his vitality by chance, the growth situation of that cold qi began to affect after descending the mountain.
The only way to do this is to repair the Sun and Moon Essence.
Since he was eight years old, he can be said to have been living by this set of mental methods, and the essence of the sun and moon has always nourished his meridians.
At this moment, he was slowly running his breath, preparing to activate the light of the spirit lotus, connecting with the light of the stars that would appear. Condensing soul thoughts is inseparable from the role of the spirit lotus, but the star lotus is a little strange, and there is no relevant record in the Taoist book, so that Lu Beichen is very confused about it.
In fact, after more than half a month of cultivation, Lu Beichen has made great progress in running his breath, and when he tries it today, it is like taking a reassuring pill, because at least in tomorrow's exam, he will not be able to show his appearance because of this.
The night is dark and starry. The temperature on the mountain gradually cooled, and Lu Beichen shivered a little.
At this moment, the dantian was like a burning fire, and the whole body seemed to be frantically sucking the light of the stars.
Lu Beichen's expression changed slightly, and beads of sweat fell on his forehead.
You can do it anywhere you can concentrate on your qi, and the reason why you can't achieve your first enlightenment is not because of efficiency, but why do you have to come to the top of the holy mountain?
One of the reasons is to try to be stargazing.
On the night of Zhuji, he never found out which star he was practicing, although he once doubted that he would be able to connect to the North Star as his name, but speculation is only speculation after all, and what has not been confirmed cannot be said to be true.
But because of this speculation, his consciousness inadvertently drifted north.
Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, Yaoguang, the North Seven Stars are far away in the sky, shining brightly, so the consciousness can easily perceive the specific location in the high sky, but the so-called North Star is the farthest away from this continent, and the starlight is the weakest, so it is difficult to perceive.
At this moment, the speed of the spirit lotus's sucking was a little fast, which made him a little uncontrollable, and the energy flow in the meridians began to be a little chaotic, as if it was going to spread various organs, but it was like returning to the dantian.
It's like an uncontrollable dissipation, and it's like a huge cycle.
"Poof......" Lu Beichen's body seemed to have reached a limit, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
He didn't understand why Ling Lian seemed to be crazy this time, absorbing the light of the stars at such a speed, causing the Heart Cultivation Sutra to transform the light of the stars into the breath of the stars, let alone use this dividend for his own use and become a real power.
After such a toss just now, he seemed to feel that his body had reached the limit of what it could bear.
"I want to see a dark horse. The gentle voice corresponding to the smiling face reappeared in the spiritual world.
"I want to be that dark horse, and come back ......" suddenly another voice in my heart.
Lu Beichen calmed down and continued to try to run his breath. At this time, the cold qi in his body began to faintly attack, and it gradually began to threaten his meridians.
"Cold ......" Lu Beichen seemed to have consumed the physical strength in his body, reached the maximum limit he could bear, and fell into the pavilion at once.
......
......
"Bang ......"
The same scene happened in the pear orchard.
A Tsing Yi Qianying finally couldn't support it and accidentally fell in front of his room.
The difference was that a gentle scene took place in front of the door: a white-clothed major general gently picked him up and walked into the room.
