Han Nuo, who walked up to the third floor, sat tightly next to the beam, looking at the dazzling full moon in the sky, and the stars in the sky that the dazzling moonlight still couldn't obscure, and looked at the dazzling eight stars in the north: the North Star and the Big Dipper.

I don't know if this Lingbao Realm is in such a state? Is it a spherical planet like the earth? There are actually Big Dipper stars here, which is really unusual!

Han Nuo looked at the vaguely familiar stars in the sky, and he recognized one or two constellations according to the Western way, but it was a little different, and for a while, Han Nuo was also a little confused.

'Jingle bells-'

Suddenly, a string of bells hanging at the top of the staircase rang rapidly.

Although Han Nuo's mind was wandering, his ears did not relax in the slightest, and when he heard the bell ringing, he quickly retracted his thoughts, and then stood up calmly, his hands pressed tightly against the wood, and slammed into the bronze bell hard......

While......

While......

While......

After three bells, Han Nuo's tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and he walked down the third floor with some ease, looking at the people who began to wash, Han Nuo also began to wash, and then went to bed......

At six o'clock in the morning (half past four in the morning), Han Nuo and the three of them were woken up by Zhong Lao, which is also a special feature of the Zhonglou disciples, others only get up after the bell rings, but the Zhonglou disciples need to get up before and ring the bell on time......

After the group went up to the third floor, Zhong Lao said to Zhang Da Niu: "Da Niu, you can tell Xiao Nuo and Xiao San about the method of judging the beginning of the time!"

"Yes, Grandpa Zhong!" Zhang Daniu said, and came to the side of the pillar at the southeast foot of the third floor excitedly, and then pointed to a recessed straight mark on the column and said: "Do you see that nick, as long as you follow the carved line and look straight over, if it is facing the morning star, then it will be the time of the day, if it is not right, it means that it has not arrived, of course, it may have been exceeded, and then there will be other bells from Fenggu Island, which means that we are late to ring the bell and will be punished!"

"You two go and give it a try!" Zhong Lao, who was in the rear, reminded him when he saw that Zhang Daniu had not forgotten his teaching yesterday.

Han Nuo and the three of them stepped forward in turn according to their words, and carefully looked at the nick to the east, and sure enough, they found that the point where the mark was pointed was not in line with the morning star, and there was still a slight gap, but it was constantly approaching.

Okay, Xiao San, you continue to observe carefully, Xiao Nuo, Da Niu, the two of you go to Xiaolou to make a fire, and after the bell rings, the two of you will come up and start meditation together.

"Yes!" Han Nuo and Zhang Daniu turned around and walked down the third floor to start the stove in the living room, and only Zhong Lao and Ji San were left on the third floor, quietly observing the east, just waiting for the arrival of the hour.

......

As soon as the hour arrived, the three bells began to spread from the roof of the building on time to the entire Chiyun Peak, reverberating, and the sound was endless......

At this time, Han Nuo and the others, who had already raised the stove in the living room, also began to think about walking to the third floor.

Speaking of which, Han Nuo and the others are also special in their lives, and they use not flints, but a talisman, which is called: Fire Talisman. The fire talisman is just an ordinary mortal talisman, it is very common, and it is also a fire talisman used to make a fire in the Sword Castle, as long as it is quickly crossed in the air, the tail of the talisman will burn slowly, enough to ignite any wood, and it is also the most common fire tool in the Lingbao world, although it is not as small and durable as a lighter, but it is windproof, moisture-proof and accident-proof, and it is much easier to use than flint or something!

And the fire charm is not big, only the size of a thumb, so it can be said that it is the smallest charm!

......

At this time, Ji San on the third floor sat in the southeast corner of the third floor facing east under the guidance of Zhong Lao, practicing the breathing and breathing technique of the twelve brocade methods.

After seeing Zhang Daniu and Han Nuo coming up, Zhong Lao made a small gesture to the two gently, then pointed to the northeast corner of the bell tower and walked over.

After the three of them arrived at the northeast corner of the third floor, Zhong Lao said softly: "Xiaonuo, you are meditating here, Da Niu, follow me downstairs!"

Han Nuo sat cross-legged in the northeast corner quietly and began to recite the "Huang Ting Sutra" silently, practicing in meditation little by little.

After Zhang Daniu followed Zhong Lao down the bell tower, he followed the path to the square at the top of the mountain.

Zhong Lao said to Zhang Daniu: "In the future, when you don't hit the bell, you can practice the 'Eight Brocades' here!"

"Yes, Grandpa Zhong" Zhang Daniu replied very solemnly, and began to put on a posture in the square, playing eight brocades with one move.

The sun rose from each other bit by bit, and the golden morning light spread over the earth bit by bit, and under the white snow, it looked particularly dazzling......

Before you know it, the sun has jumped up, completely jumping out of the horizon, sprinkling that selfless light and heat on the earth, warming everything that is cold in the cold winter......

At the moment when the sun jumped out of the horizon, Ji San's eyes opened suddenly, and then, his eyes were firmly fixed on the sundial in the south, watching the shadow of the pointer under the morning sun quietly point to the end of the hour (seven o'clock) at the moment, his body jumped like a rabbit to hit the wood, and then ......

When- When-

After the three bells rang, Han Nuo also slowly opened his eyes, and then stood up calmly, "Little San, let's go down!"

"Hmm!" Ji San also replied, and walked down the third floor with Han Nuo.

......

On the first floor, when Han Nuo and the others came down, Zhong Lao had already returned to the bell tower with Da Niu, and a steaming breakfast was already hot on the stove at this time.

After the four of them had breakfast together, they came to the second floor, the library of the bell tower, and it was also the last public place of the bell tower that Han Nuo, Zhang Daniu, and Ji San had never entered.

After coming to the second floor, Han Nuo and the three of them were attracted by the old books, different from most of the paper books in the private school, there are also some books composed of bamboo slips, silk satin, and scrolls, which look extremely old, but also have a special flavor that those new books do not have.

It can be seen that the books are well protected, although they are all traces of being read, but they are still placed in a row, clean and abnormal!

The light source of the library is from the surrounding windows of a few feet and sizes, most of the windows are open very high, and there is a faint light shining from the windows, lighting up the entire library cabinet.

Through the layers of bookshelves, you can vaguely see that on the south wall of the library pavilion, there are four special windows that are still the size of a few feet, the window position is very low, and below the adjacent windows, there are four low tables, and the faint sunlight penetrates through the windows, illuminating the low table on that side. Obviously, that is where Han Nuo and the others read and write.

"This is the library of the bell tower! You will recite the Taoist scriptures here in the future, study the scriptures and classics handed down by your ancestors, and the 'commentaries' made by those scriptures! Okay, go and choose one, and then start chanting, and if you don't understand, come and ask me!" Zhong Lao thought with a faint pride, and after everyone introduced the various scriptures in the library, he picked one and walked to the low table on the far left of the south.

"Hmm!" Han Nuo nodded in unison, and then began to look for the annotations and detailed explanations of various scriptures in the bookshelf, and finally, Han Nuo chose a copy of "Huang Tingjiu Notes", sat on the second low table, and looked at it quietly, and after a while, Zhang Daniu also chose a book and sat down on the third low table. In the end, Ji Sancai walked over with several books in his hand, and then put them on the third low table, and carefully flipped through them page by page.

......

Unconsciously, the daylight began to straighten out little by little, and Zhong Lao, who was reading, raised his head and looked at the three people who were still reading seriously, as if they had not noticed the passage of time, and coughed lightly in his mouth, interrupting the silence of the three of them.

Glancing at Zhong Lao with some doubts, Ji San seemed to remember something, looked down at the oblique shadow cast by the sunlight on the window on the table, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Grandpa Zhong, I'll go up immediately!"

"Well, let's go!" said Zhong Lao, and then began to pack up the books on the low table.

"Well, Grandpa Zhong, I don't know what we should do?" Han Nuo and Zhang Daniu glanced at each other a little blankly, then looked at Zhong Lao and asked!

"Well, Da Niu, accompany me to the kitchen, Xiao Nuo, you can also go up to the third floor, help Xiao San look at it!" Zhong Lao thought for a while and said.

"Hmm!" Zhang Da Niu and Han Nuo nodded in unison, and then after packing up the books, Da Niu walked down the first floor with Zhong Lao, and Han Nuo walked up to the third floor.

......

"When-when-when-"

The three bells finally rang on time, and Han Nuo and Ji San also laughed and walked down the stairs to the third floor.

At this time, in the living room on the first floor, Zhong Lao had already made a few light stir-fried and four plates of big steamed buns together and placed them on the square table next to the stove!

"It's time to eat!" Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhong Lao said loudly, and then left to chant and eat together......

After the meal, Zhong Lao walked out of the bell tower with a few people, and walked up a rugged mountain road next to the path leading to the small square, and after a while, he came to the depths of a bamboo forest.

In the depths of the bamboo forest, a white and dense mist shrouded the front of Han Nuo and the others, penetrating to a distance of several zhang, but the water mist a few zhang away quickly condensed into water droplets and hung on the bamboo leaves under the cold cooling......

Zhong Lao led a few people through the thick fog and layers of bamboo forests, and came to the edge of a clearing, where scattered stones formed a circle, and in the middle was a steaming, yellowish pool.

"Hot springs!" Han Nuo was in the rear, and finally there was silence in the group.

"Yes, hot springs!" Zhong Lao led everyone to the other side of the hot spring, walked dozens of steps, came to a small bamboo building, and said to everyone: "You can change into bathrobes inside, and then put your clothes in the wardrobe to prevent being damp by the mist here!"

Then, Zhong Lao took the three of them around the bamboo building, but a few steps, they came to another pool, however, the pool here is not a hot spring, there is a small gap on one side of the pool, and there is a pool of water leaking out along the gap, flowing out of the bamboo forest in a zigzag, turning into a stream and meandering down......

"Here, it is the nearest source of water for you to fetch water from the bell tower in the future, and it is a bit rough along the way, so you must be cautious!" Zhong Lao said with the three of them, looking at the three of them with a serious face, Zhong Lao relaxed instead: "Okay, go back and have a good hot spring, there is a water leak on the side of the hot spring, don't forget the time like in the morning!"

After finishing speaking, Zhong Lao took the lead and walked back to the small bamboo building.

The bamboo building is supported by live bamboo, and it is built in the sky, so the bamboo building is very small, the first floor is a small living room, and the second floor is only four small changing rooms......

Han Nuo and the others walked into the changing room, took off their clothes and put them in a small wooden cabinet in the changing room, changed into a brand-new robe hanging outside, and then began to enjoy this short hot spring bath......

After the second noon bell rang, Da Niu and Xiao San walked down the peak of Chiyun Peak in unison and came to the dining hall at the bottom of the peak to get the wood and ingredients needed for the day, while Han Nuo alone carried two ten-pound small wooden barrels and began to fetch water back and forth......
