Chapter 21: Continue to mend the sky
On the seventh day,
Not eating, drinking, or sleeping is already the limit of the human body, and even a cultivator, as long as he does not cross that threshold and step into the sacred, he will not be able to last too long after all.
If I go down, I'm afraid that something will go wrong with my body.
Of course, such a high-intensity load can only be borne by the practitioner's body. Focusing on one thing with a high-intensity load can only be done by the disciples of the academy, because it is not only a test of one's physical strength, but also a test of one's mental perseverance.
The students in the front yard are the students, and the ones in the back yard are considered the disciples of the academy.
The disciples and students of the seowon were divided into two different classes.
On the seventh day, Liu Mengmeng and Tang Guo'er first took their eyes off the books in their hands and "woke up", it was not that the two of them were not committed enough, their cultivation was relatively the lowest among them, Liu Mengmeng was at the peak of the sea, Tang Guo'er was higher, and he had just entered Lishan.
The originally round and ruddy face was thinner to a melon seed face, but if it weren't for the sallow face and bloodshot eyes, Tang Guo'er would have become more delicate.
After looking away from the books in her hand, Tang Guo'er looked around a little blankly, but there was a "bang" sound in her ears, but it was Liu Mengmeng who fell from the stool and fell to the ground.
The stool was brought by the fifth senior sister from the backyard.
His cultivation was the lowest, and as soon as his eyes moved from the book, he fainted when he relaxed his mind.
If it weren't for the fact that the scholar gave everyone a glass of water at the beginning, he would definitely not have been able to persist until now.
Certainly not ordinary water.
"What's wrong with you, little peacock. Tang Guo'er shouted.
But the voice was inaudible to herself.
Tang Guo'er shouted again, her voice hoarse, but it woke up the others.
The scholar raised his head first, saw Liu Mengmeng lying on the ground, and hurriedly walked over, Tang Guoer had already helped Liu Mengmeng up and sat on the ground.
The scholar put his hand on Liu Mengmeng's back, and a piece of vitality entered Liu Mengmeng's body through the palm of his hand, "It's okay, he's just a little out of strength." The scholar comforted Tang Guo'er.
The others woke up and gathered around, each with big dark circles under their eyes.
Liu Mengmeng finally opened his eyes slowly, and said faintly: "I'm so hungry...... ”
As soon as he said this, everyone's stomach gurgled and screamed, and for a while, countless gurgling sounds sounded, one after another like thunder.
The second senior brother had the most important demeanor, and at this time, he felt a little embarrassed, and couldn't help glaring at the scholar.
Mo Mo and Red Makeup also glared at the scholar fiercely, and the woman always felt more embarrassed.
The scholar was a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly smiled: "Senior brother, I'm going to find some food for the junior sisters." Hearing him say this, even Su Yan couldn't help but glare at him.
The scholar hurriedly added: "Of course, there are also juniors and disciples. Sansan let out a sigh of relief, but fortunately it wasn't him who went.
The scholar disappeared in one step, and when he appeared, he was already at the door of the best restaurant in Licheng, and threw a heavy gold ingot on the table with a "pop": "Xiao Er, hurry up and make all your best food and pack it in a food box, and it will cost ten people." ”
Scholars pay attention to food, but when they are in Licheng, they rarely eat outside, and Sansan is responsible for cooking in the academy. Sansan's craftsmanship is not even picky with him.
"Okay, you sit down first, and the little one will arrange it immediately. When Xiao Er saw the gold, he hurriedly agreed, and took the arrangement of trotting all the way with the gold.
The scholar sat on the stool, cocked one foot very unfiguratively, grabbed the teacup with one hand, and drank it all in one gulp, not seeing Xiao Er secretly bite the gold with his mouth while walking.
The scholar felt a little miserable: obviously he is the senior brother, why is he doing all the errands by himself, don't look at the second child's humble appearance, it's not that he didn't treat himself as a senior brother at a critical time.
There are two people in the academy who are the most bullied, the senior brother and the youngest junior brother.
Thinking that Su Yan was not the youngest junior brother after he came, the scholar felt even more sad: the elder brother could still be upgraded, and no one would replace him as a senior brother no matter what.
The gold is heavy enough, so the speed of cooking is fast enough.
Soon Xiao Er and the other two guys came over with food boxes, and there were more than ten boxes of large and small.
Xiao Er was thinking in his heart: in addition to the cost of these foods and packaging, there was obviously a lot of gold left, and he had to find a way to let the shabby-looking scholar reward the rest as a tip.
The other two men looked at the scholar's empty hands, wondering how he had taken the large pile of food boxes with him.
These problems didn't bother them for long, and things came to an end. Because the scholar was gone, he was carrying a lot of food boxes.
Xiao Er rubbed his eyes, and ran to the counter to see if the gold just now was still there.
The gold is still there.
......
When the scholar appeared in front of the academy, the blacksmith was standing by the fire in a daze, and after these days, he became more and more sure of one thing: he was indeed not a piece of reading material.
Su Yan stood next to the flatbed truck and looked at the unfinished book on it in a daze, the corners of Sansan's mouth were drooling, yawning constantly, and the rest of them also had different expressions and behaviors.
"Coming, coming......" the scholar shouted like a guy running in the hall.
When he saw the scholar, he yawned and stopped fighting, and even the always serious gentleman came over, surrounding the scholar, staring at him like a pack of wolves.
Pulling his hand into the air, another white cloud came down and turned into a table in the scholar's hand, and everyone was surprised.
"This is the crystal shrimp, this is the bergamot gold roll, this is the golden silk sparrow...... , brothers and sisters, come, come. The scholar took out the food box like magic, and played the role of the guy to the fullest.
Where did anyone care about him, they swarmed up, and only the gentleman solemnly saluted him: "Senior brother has worked hard." ”
"Wait, I'll leave a few crystal shrimp. The scholar shouted, but no one paid attention to him.
......
Eat and drink enough.
Sansan stared at the remaining books on the cart and shook his head.
The gentleman frowned.
Red Makeup and the blacksmith were silent, and the others all looked at the scholar.
"I still haven't thought of a way," the gentleman said, "If you compare this heaven and earth to a container, the law is the water contained in this container, when the little junior brother and the holy woman break the space, the law escapes, or is swallowed by the black hole of space, just like the flow of water in the container, even if the senior brother fills this hole in time, but after all, some water flows out." ”
This is the so-called truth that it is difficult to recover after being covered with water.
Liu Mengmeng and Tang Guo'er had never heard of anyone comparing heaven and earth to a container for water, but they knew that this was a rare opportunity, so they all listened quietly, corroborating what they had learned and the words of the second senior brother, and only felt that they had touched a new world.
The scholar said: "The teacher once said that at the beginning of the birth of this world, there was no heaven, no earth, no vitality, no law, just a chaos, infinite, and infinitely small. Later, I don't know how many years have passed, there have been a long, long time, maybe it was a moment, because the law of time had not yet been born at that time, at some point, chaos exploded, and the moment of the explosion emitted the ultimate light and the ultimate darkness, and the ravioli turned into two substances, one tangible, sinking to the ground, and the other invisible, rising to the sky. ”
"It's like setting off a firecracker", the scholar vividly described the explosion that was unknown in the master's theory.
The scholar paused for a moment and continued: "The tangible objective embodiment is the mountains and rivers, the treasures of heaven and earth, in short, everything we can see. The invisible embodiment is the existence of subjective consciousness, which is the law of this world, which requires each of us to meditate and perceive, between existence and non-existence. ”
"So the three thousand avenues are one after all, and the one here must be the chaos. "It was here that the scholar gave a lesson to the disciples in the backyard.
Everyone was listening attentively, including the gentleman, who had read these words in a book called "Taimeng" written by the master, but at this time he had learned something else from listening to the scholar.
The book "Taimeng" was in Su Yan's hand at this time, and the senior brother glanced at it: "I have never understood this book, because if according to what the teacher said, the origin of the world was created by the explosion of chaos, then what is chaos? In other words, the explosion created space. Obviously, space is real and objective, but it is not the substance we see. Space is not the same as the law. "I doubt what the teacher said, but not only scholars have done such things in the academy.
Space is not the same as the law, but the law can create the corresponding space, such as the law of space, such as the means by which the scholar brings back the food box.
Whether the law creates space, or whether space produces law, the question is unsolvable, just like whether there is a chicken or an egg
The chaotic explosion can't be explained, because no one has seen it, and it is impossible to confirm whether the explosion is the space or the law that it was generated, as for the above record of Master Taimeng, it is only a reference for the disciples of the academy, not the only answer. The scholar had not figured out these questions, although he could use them.
Sansan, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly interjected: "What we are thinking about now is how to fill this hole", he raised his hand and pointed to the patch of white clouds in the sky: "Chaos explosion or not, what is the matter now? It doesn't matter if his law is eaten by the black hole," he made a very vivid analogy, and opened his mouth, "It is good if there are more laws or less, what is the matter now?" ”
The scholar patted his head very unimaged, of course, this kind of thing is similar to the second senior brother and gentleman.
"I don't want to think about it, I don't want to make up for it, make up for it", the scholar waved.
"How to make up?" the gentleman asked the scholar seriously.
So, the problem is back to square one.
So, Sansan rolled his eyes twice, one for the senior brother and one for the second senior brother.
What two awesome mallets.
"Of course, how strong is how to make up. Sansan said.
The senior brother continued: "How beautiful is how to make up".
As a result, a problem that took countless efforts and wasted countless hours of disciples in the backyard was solved.
"The third child is really a genius", the scholar secretly praised the third sentence in his heart. If you let Sansan know, you will definitely smack him in the face: This is also called a genius? Don't insult this genius, it's all because you are stunned that you complicate simple things.
The genius of the harm also followed the devil and read the book for so long.
As soon as the matter was decided, everyone began to act, Liu Mengmeng, Tang Guoer and Su Yan began to sort out the books that had been turned over on the cart.
The blacksmiths began to light the stove, and Sansan ran over to open the two chests he had picked up, which contained some jet-black ore, sparkling diamonds, colorful gems, and many unknown things.
Red makeup is next to him, and the end of the color is mixed.
Only the second senior brother frowned and thought about things. The scholar didn't know when he flew into the sky again, and took a ruler and measured there.
The fire quickly burned, and Su Yan saw that the books were almost finished, so he ran over to help the blacksmith pull the bellows.
Sansan threw the things in the box into the stove.
The elder brother seemed to think that the temperature of the furnace fire was not high enough, so a red fiery cloud in the sky was thrown into the furnace by him.
This concludes a bachelor's seminar in the backyard.
Many years later, when Liu Mengmeng and Tang Guoer, who were already at the top of the world, recalled this incident, they both wondered if it was the qualification exam for the two of them in the backyard, which tested their mental perseverance.
After all, the terrifying seven days and seven nights of not eating, drinking, sleeping, and reading, not everyone can persevere, they persevered, so there were two more junior brothers and sisters in the backyard.
