Chapter 136: Baking Bricks

He paused and carefully studied the "Yuanhua Umbrella" on the wall. At this time, he had stopped reading and practiced to the middle of the paragraph, only to see "Yuanhua Umbrella" write like this: "With Yuan Qi, one becomes two, two turns into four, four turns into eight, and even infinity." A void has its own real supplement, and there is an endless stream. Then there is the method of exhaling luck and how to distinguish whether the number of transformations is more or less. Xiao Dongshan thought secretly: "Sure enough! It turns out that the subtlety of the Yuanhua umbrella lies in the division of the vitality, one into two, two into four, and how much it can become in the end, it depends on the individual's cultivation, and even can be divided endlessly. ”

On the fifth day, there was no longer half of the old qi in the body, and it was no longer as smooth as before, and he practiced until the evening, and finally felt that a wisp of green smoke seemed to float in his body, and he controlled this wisp of green smoke according to the law, and turned this true qi from the Yuan Shen into two sections, and then divided into four sections when the two sections expanded...... When it was too difficult to divide into eight sections, he sensed that everyone had left the cave and returned to the resting place one after another, so he also put away his thoughts and went back to the village to rest.

Time flies, after practicing like this for more than 50 days, Xiao Dongshan only feels that his true qi is full of energy, and he is indescribably comfortable, but his original spirit seems to be damaged, and he doesn't sleep very peacefully at night. There is a way to infer whether you have over-cultivated in "Yuanhua Umbrella", and you try it according to that method, but it is not over-cultivation.

In the past 50 days, Xiao Dongshan's skills have not only increased greatly, but also figured out the people inside, in addition to himself, the remaining twenty-seven people are: "Forty-three", "Forty-eight", "Five-one", "Five-two", "Five-three", "Five-five", "Five-six", "Five-seven", "Five-eight", "Six-zero", "Sixty-one", "Sixty-five", "Sixty-six", "Sixty-nine", "Seventy-zero", "Seventy-one", "Seventy-one", "Seventy-two", "Seventy-two", "Seventy-three", "Seventy-four", "Seventy-six", "Seventy-nine", "Eighty-nine", "Eighty-one", "Eighty-one", "Eighty-two", Eighty-four", "eighty-six", "eighty-seven". He pondered for a while, and also understood that the reason why Master Rujian was called "Master Qiqi" was because he had heard something wrong, and Master Rujian thought that it was a vacant "Qiqi".

He whispered to the "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist: "Where did Seventy-Seven go?" "Eighty-seven" said: "How do I know! I haven't seen it since I came. Xiao Dongshan thought about it, and he was right, this question should be asked to people whose numbers are less than seventy-seven. But the smaller the number, the more cold and addicted people are, and they don't know who is better. Thinking of this, I was shocked: "Will I be so cold and addicted one day?" ”

Early in the morning, Zixuzi suddenly came.

As soon as he came in, he said loudly: "What day is today, everyone knows that according to the old rules, the top three will each be rewarded with an elixir." He also pointed to the "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist and Xiao Dongshan and said: "You two go to make blanks!" Xiao Dongshan exclaimed: "Fart? The "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist pulled his sleeve and said, "Don't be rude in front of real people, follow me." ”

The two of them went out of the brick kiln, and at the corner of the pile of green bricks, they saw several wooden boxes, some of which had four grids, each of which was exactly the size of a green brick, and a box, which was much larger and longer than other wooden boxes, but there was no grid, and I didn't know what it was for. The "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist picked up a four-grid wooden box and picked up a thin rope on the ground, and Xiao Dongshan also took a four-grid wooden box and a thin rope.

Xiao Dongshan followed the "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist to the back of the pile of green bricks, only to find that there was a pile of mud here, the "Eighty-Seven" Fit Daoist found a piece of wood, scraped a layer on the mud pile, revealing the mud that was not thin or thick, picked up the four-grid wooden box and turned it over, buckled it, with a little scooping momentum, filled the four-grid wooden box with mud, and put it together with his hand, scraped it on the wooden box with a thin rope, removed the excess mud, and the wooden box was just full and neat.

Xiao Dongshan understood that this was brick-making, and he also followed his example and filled a box.

The two walked to the brick kiln, and the "87" Fit Daoist buckled it to the ground, leaving four neat pieces of mud bricks on the ground, and Xiao Dongshan did the same. In this way, the two went back and forth, and laid twenty-eight mud bricks on the ground of the brick kiln.

Starting from the white-haired old man of "Four Three", everyone came over and carefully took away a piece of mud brick, sat against the wall, formed a circle, and put the mud bricks in front of him. Xiao Dongshan watched it interestingly, and did it according to their appearance.

I saw everyone stretching out their fingers and marking their numbers on the mud bricks, and Xiao Dongshan also drew two "eights" on the mud bricks. Zixuzi sat in the middle and said loudly: "Begin!" ”

After listening to the order, everyone slowly put their hands on the ends of the mud bricks and began to exercise. Xiao Dongshan didn't know what he meant, and said in a low voice: "What are you doing?" The arrogant "Eighty-Six" rich and noble boy snorted and said in a low voice: "Roast it!" Idiot! ”

Xiao Dongshan heard this, put his hands on both ends of the brick and mud, and carried the Yuanhua umbrella, if the green smoke ignited in the body instantly, although he didn't know what was burning in the body, but he only felt that the green smoke was getting thicker and thicker...... After a while, it was divided into two hundred and fifty-six sections of true qi, and the true qi slowly poured out from the palm of his hand, and after a while, the mud bricks were also baked.

Xiao Dongshan was pleasantly surprised in his heart, he didn't think that in less than two months, his martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds. When I thought of the outlying island, I was already slightly better than Yang Yang, and now I am afraid that my skills have left Chen Zhiduo and Brother Chen far away, and I should be able to compete with a first-class master like Yao Zhongtian. But when I think about it, what do I have to be happy about? Without separation, what is there to be happy about in the world?

At this time, everyone was baking bricks. They have the same method, and their bodies are like green smoke, but they don't look different from the outside.

I only heard Zixuzi shouting, "Stop!" Xiao Dongshan only heard the wind rise sharply, Zixuzi flew up out of thin air, his feet lightly touched on each mud brick, and he had already circled in the brick kiln, Zixuzi returned to the middle and sat down, and he didn't see how his hands came out, and he had pulled three bricks in front of him.

He picked up three cooked bricks and looked at them, and said, "Sixty-one first, seventy-six second, eighty-eight third." ”

The white-haired old man of "Four Three" said: "I don't accept it!" Why not me! My bricks are baked harder than steel, why didn't they make the list? Lost to this new kid? Xiao Dongshan looked at him, "Sisan" was seventy years old, with white hair, ragged clothes, and a withered appearance. Zi Xuzi said softly: "Your bricks are hard but hard, but they are too hot, this is a false work, because you have mistransported many methods!" If you are not convinced, look at this young man! As he spoke, he pushed the bricks baked by Xiao Dongshan in front of him. The brick flew in front of the white-haired old man of "Four Three" and stopped steadily. The white-haired old man of "Four-Three" took it and touched it, and it was really cold, and his own was hot, and he had nothing to say.

Zixuzi said: "Although you are old, I can't rank you by age. But you have a deep foundation, and if you correct your method well, you have a great chance! When the white-haired old man of "Four-Three" heard this, he calmed down and seemed to have found hope again.

Zi Xuzi took out three more pills, and used his finger flicks to the "61" Daoren, the "76" Iron Tower Han, and the "88" Xiao Dongshan, and said: "This pill is my new practice, and it will be of great benefit to you and other exercises, so it is better for you to wait for months of hard practice, swallow it." Xiao Dongshan swallowed it as he said, only to feel that it was fragrant and bitter, bitter and sweet.

Zixuzi said again: "Today, October 14th, is the day when I relieve the irritability in your body, you all turn your backs!" They all turned and sat facing the wall. Xiao Dongshan lowered his head and peeked with his afterglow, and saw Zixuzi walking behind the white-haired old man of "Four-Three", gently putting his palm on the back of his neck, stopping for a while, and then walking to the back of "Four-Eight", and also putting his palm on the back of his neck and stopping for a while......

He pressed the back of everyone's neck for a while, and finally said to Xiao Dongshan: "Every newcomer must first be tested by irritability, and you will ......" As he spoke, he walked behind Xiao Dongshan, and suddenly said "Huh", as if he was surprised, only to hear him say: "Next time, you can turn around." ”

Xiao Dongshan turned around, but he was already suspicious in his heart.

Zixuzi said: "Today is everywhere. Next time it's a big day, the first place will be promoted to the immortal path with me, so you can work hard. "After that, he left.

Xiao Dongshan waited for him to leave, pretending to be very happy to win the third place, humming a small song and drilling around in the brick kiln, and looked behind the "May 1st" monk, "52" monk, "53" monk, "66" monk, and "71st" monk, and couldn't help but tremble in shock - these five monks, three of them have no hair, and two of them have very short hair, so that they can see it really, and there is a purple spot on the back of their necks!
