Chapter 22: Illusion and Reality
In the early morning of the second day, the mist shrouded in the mountains, the green leaves of the treetops were stained with crystal dewdrops, and the stone platform in front of the Lin Dadong Mansion was also moistened by the mist, and in the distant sky, a ray of light shone on the earth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lin Er got up early, and at the moment he was chopping wood on the stone platform, although Liao Yuanbao claimed to be a virtuous person, but after all, he was a young man, and he had been practicing alone in the mountains for more than three years, and the other senior brothers in the view were also busy cultivating, so they usually had no time to pay attention to him.
At this moment, Liao Yuanbao looked at Lin Er, who was working hard to chop wood, with an interested face.
"I say! Lin Er, what are you chopping wood for? Your eldest brother is a Taoist in Guanzhong, and you don't need to do this kind of rough work at all. Liao Yuanbao asked with a puzzled expression.
"Humph! Opinionated. Lin Er snorted coldly and continued to chop hard, ignoring Liao Yuanbao.
At this time, Lin Da walked out listlessly, he didn't sleep well last night, and what the wind raised Daoist said made him quite upset.
"Senior Brother Lin, you don't have to be frustrated, the first cultivation has no effect, it's a normal thing." Looking at Lin Da with a listless face, Liao Yuanbao thought that he had made no progress in his cultivation, so he spoke.
"Senior brother, I practiced hard in the mountains for a year, before I cultivated the Yuan Shen, although the senior brother is not a genius, but he also has middle and upper qualifications, at the beginning of cultivation, the most important thing is to be down-to-earth, junior brother, you don't want to be ambitious." Liao Yuanbao said.
Lin Da was slightly stunned when he heard this, he naturally cultivated the Yuan Shen by cultivating yesterday, but thinking of the words of the Wind Yang Daoist, Lin Da secretly sighed.
Seeing Lin Da sighing secretly, Liao Yuanbao shook his head slightly, and scolded in his heart: The shaft cannot be taught.
Subsequently, Liao Yuanbao returned to the stone platform in front of his cave to meditate and practice.
After Liao Yuanbao left, Lin Da took the iron treasure knife, came to a huge rock, and began to practice the knife drawing technique, this knife drawing technique Lin Da has been practicing since he was a child, and it has been integrated into his bones, and the practice of drawing the knife has become his habit.
A boom boom sounded, Lin Da practiced the knife drawing technique, and the rock block he cut down rolled down the steep hillside and collided on the mountain rock, making a loud noise.
After slashing the fifteen knives at the peak, Lin Da felt exhausted, returned to the cave and planted himself on the bed, and slept with a snort, to make up for the insomnia last night.
Falling asleep again, the first thing Lin Da saw was the kind of small cyan sapling, the slender roots were rooted in the void, sucking a little halo, and the sunlight outside projected through the stone wall of the cave and fell on the little sapling.
This is a real and strange dream, Lin Da knows that the little sapling in front of him is real, but the dream is originally illusory, and it only becomes real because of the little sapling.
It's a pity that in this real dream, there is no one else except Lin Da himself.
Suddenly, out of the corner of Lin Da's eyes, he saw three porcelain bottles placed at the head of the bed, and the bottles contained blood essence pills, if these blood essence pills were not assisted by the power of the Yuan Shen to refining, then the blood essence pill was like a stone, not absorbed by the stomach and intestines, and then discharged through the stool.
Lin Da's expression moved slightly, he picked up one of the porcelain bottles, and poured out a dark red pill the size of a dragon's eye, the pill was extremely hard, like a stone.
After taking the Blood Essence Pill, Lin Da began to refine the power of the Yuan Shen.
The Blood Essence Pill that fell on the stomach, with the assistance of the power of the Yuan Shen, dyed the gastric juice red, and the stomach and intestines continued to absorb the red substances in the gastric juice, and after these substances were absorbed by the stomach and intestines, they were transformed into essence qi at an extremely rapid speed.
After Lin Da's body absorbed these essences, he quickly reached a saturated state, but the essence obtained from the Blood Essence Pill was still pouring into his body in a steady stream, if there was no method to refine mana at this time, Lin Da would die of over-replenishment.
Lin Da was clear about this, so he didn't panic, he didn't hurry, and gradually used the power of the Yuan Shen to convert these essences into mana.
I don't know how long it took, not long after the essence of the Blood Essence Pill was absorbed by Lin Da, Lin Da almost converted these essences into mana by using the power of the Yuan Shen.
Since Lin Da does not have a magic furnace, the converted mana is scattered all over his body, nourishing his physique, this mana is the 'strength' of the Taoist, with incredible effects, with the nourishment of these mana, even if Lin Da does not practice in the future, his physique will be nourished more and more strong.
Completely absorbing a Blood Essence Pill, Lin Da secretly concentrated, and after a while, he woke up from this real dream.
When he woke up, Lin Da checked his body and was stunned, because all over his body, like a dream, there was a trace of mana hidden.
Immediately, Lin Da took a porcelain bottle, this porcelain bottle was the porcelain bottle containing the Blood Essence Pill, Lin Da poured out the Blood Essence Pill inside, and poured the dark red round pill on the table, counting it carefully, there were a total of ten pills, one of which was gray and dark, and the surface was covered with a trace of cracks, like a dry mud pill.
Lin Da knew that this pill should be the one he took in the dream realm, and the reason why this pill turned gray was because the essence in it was extracted to the brink.
Picking up this pill, Lin Da secretly exerted his strength, and the pill suddenly turned into gray powder, like quicksand, scattered to the ground.
Seeing the gray powder falling to the ground, Lin Da was slightly stunned.
…………
June passed quickly, and Lin Da came to the Mufeng Taoist Temple to usher in the first first day of the first month, and the first day of the seventh month, which was the day when the Taoist with profound mana gave lectures.
On this day, bidding farewell to Lin Er, who was working hard to chop wood, Lin Da and Liao Yuanbao walked to the Vipassana Hall together, walked along the bluestone mountain road, walked for half an hour, and came to the Vipassana Hall located on the top of Mufeng Mountain.
The main hall enshrines the originator of Mufeng Taoist Temple, Mufeng Taoist, below the portrait of Mufeng Taoist, there is a shrine, there is no sacrifice on it, only an incense burner, a stick of incense burns quietly, a faint smoke.
The main hall of Vipassana is very ordinary, the furnishings are simple, there are nine tuanpu on the ground, one of the more prominent tuanpu is under the god platform, and it is the Taoist who teaches sitting.
The eight Tuanpu below were neatly placed, when Lin Da and Liao Yuanbao came to the main hall, there were already six people sitting on the Tuanpu, and the Fengyang Daoist was among them, Liao Yuanbao took Lin Da to salute these people one by one, because they were the senior brothers of the Taoist Temple.
These six people are old and young, the younger one looks like a Taoist in his twenties, and he may be nearly a hundred years old, and the old Taoist should not be regarded as an old man, because the Taoist cannot judge his age by his appearance.
It is said that the elder brother of Vipassana Mujian Daoren has an age of 300 years, and the division of generations in the Taoist temple is really not complicated.
