Chapter 16: The Shadow Becomes Three
Dan Xuan now feels that a void space has appeared in his dantian, and this space is the "Xuanqi Sea".
Whether or not you have the "Xuanqi Sea" is the difference between the "Realm of Refining the Body" and the "Realm of Gathering Spirits". The "realm of refining the body" is only to strengthen the body, and the body can only be nourished by the aura, but cannot store the aura. The "Realm of Gathering Spirits" with the "Sea of Xuanqi" is very different, and a one-star gathering spirit can refine the spiritual energy for its own use, which is called "Xuanqi". Therefore, reaching the realm of gathering spirits is the only way to truly embark on the path of cultivation......
The night sky is like a navy blue curtain, and the depth is dotted with stars, and you can't help but feel a deep sense of intoxication.
Dan Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and there was a slight excitement in his dark and clear eyes. "One-star gathering spirits", Dan Xuan finally stepped into the right track of cultivation.
Danxuan now has three attributes: wood, fire, and water, and the main attribute is the fire attribute.
After becoming a one-star gathering spirit, it stands to reason that Dan Xuan can try to condense his "Xuanhuo". But Dan Xuan has just opened up the meridians now, and the current meridians have not yet been stabilized. If Dan Xuan immediately condensed the Xuanhuo now, it would be easy to cause the meridians to be damaged, thus causing irreparable regrets.
Therefore, the current Dan Xuan needs a period of cultivation to slowly moisturize the meridians with the power of aura. After the meridians are completely stabilized, they can condense their "Xuanhuo" and use it to refine pills to help them increase their cultivation speed......
Dan Xuan got up slowly, wanting to move out the sewage from the big wooden basin and dump it. But suddenly feeling a burst of hunger in his belly, Dan Xuan realized that he didn't seem to have eaten much for a day.
"Alas......" A helpless sigh came from Dan Xuan's bitter mouth.
"Now...... Li'er should have fallen asleep...... It seems that I can only go to the kitchen to find something to eat by myself......" Dan Xuan thought in his heart.
......
The moon is like a silver plate, and the white moonlight is covered by the faint clouds in the sky, like a mist, quietly pouring into the small courtyard of Danxuan, which is not too big.
Dan Xuan inhaled the clear air while looking around at the faint and hazy courtyard shrouded in the moonlight, and quietly walked towards the kitchen.
When Dan Xuan came to the kitchen, he found that Li'er, who thought he was sleeping, appeared here.
Li'er was sitting in the moonlight picking vegetables. The bright moonlight gently shone on the slightly immature face in the fairness of the child, which looked extremely delicate and elegant.
Li'er's mouth was still humming a little song that I didn't know what the name was. But it sounds very melodious and tactful, coupled with Li'er's sweet voice, clearing her throat and delicate, like a gurgling stream, with a slightly naughty waves, people can't help but be a little reluctant to destroy this beautiful and harmonious sound.
Dan Xuan was stunned unconsciously......
Li'er was picking vegetables seriously, and then casually glanced at it, and saw a person standing not far in front of her. The little girl was startled, screamed, and quickly jumped up, squatted aside, and covered her face with her hands. Shouted: "Don't come...... Don't come here...... No...... To ......"
The little girl just shouted twice, and her eyes looked through her fingers, and it turned out to be her own young master.
"Ahh Then the little girl stood up awkwardly, a blush appeared on her immature little face, and a vegetable leaf was accidentally stuck to a wisp of green silk on her forehead. His eyes were like children who had done bad things, and he didn't dare to look at Dan Xuan.
The corners of Danxuan's clean mouth turned up slightly, and he only felt that this little girl was too easy to be shy......
When she walked to Li'er's side, she was still very shy, and she didn't even know where to put her hand.
Dan Xuan stretched out his hand to help Li'er pick up the vegetable leaves in front of his forehead, and said gently: "Li'er, it's so late, what are you doing here?"
Li'er still didn't seem to be able to react, but she felt that her young master was too gentle. On weekdays, several sisters talk about how their young master is domineering, or how irritable he is. Why is this young master like a kind big brother, he never scolds himself, and he doesn't have a young master's shelf, but is very gentle.
Originally, a few days ago, the old patriarch asked him to serve Young Master Danxuan, and Lian'er felt a little apprehensive in her heart, but now it seems that she is really lucky, and she has met such a gentle and kind young master.
Dan Xuan didn't know that Li'er was thinking about this, but he felt that this girl was stunned again......?
"Ah......" Li'er woke up like a dream: "Young master...... The slave maid thought that you hadn't eaten for a day, and I wanted to make some side dishes for the young master, but who knew ...... young master"
The more the little girl talked, the quieter her voice became, and in the end it was almost inaudible.
Dan Xuan grinned and said in his heart: This little girl is really good at taking care of people.
Dan Xuan looked at the little girl so ashamed that she almost buried her head in the ground, so she had no choice but to stop teasing her, and gently patted Li'er's shoulder with her white palm. He walked straight towards the kitchen, and as soon as he took a few steps, Dan Xuan's voice sounded behind Li'er's head: "Li'er, I'll let you taste the young master's craftsmanship today!"
"Well...... Ahh
Dan Xuan looked at the neatly arranged various utensils and ingredients in the kitchen, and suddenly seemed to have returned to the Huoshen Mountain in his previous life, wasn't he able to use these utensils and ingredients to make all kinds of delicacies in the world at that time?
Suddenly, a wave of pride surged into Dan Xuan's heart, and Dan Xuan's face swelled with confidence.
Li'er wanted to come forward to help the young master with his work, but when she entered the kitchen, Li'er was completely dumbfounded.
I saw Dan Xuan cutting cabbage with a knife, quickly and delicately with a knife, the kitchen knife left an afterimage, just a moment, a cabbage was cut by Dan Xuan cleanly, the cutter was picked, and the cut cabbage accurately fell into the wok, followed by various materials.
Dan Xuan held a shovel in one hand and continuously put various spices into the pot in the other. What made Li'er incomprehensible was that Dan Xuan's hands moved together, and there was no sense of conflict at all. And it seems that the amount of materials used is still very accurate.
“...... This...... This ...... "Li'er is completely blinded, even if the young master of her own family is so gentle, she is still so good at cooking, and her cooking movements are so elegant, so ...... Handsome...... Gas......
Li'er only felt that she was the happiest girl in the world, and she had met such a perfect young master. If the young master can be so talented in cultivation, then it should be ......
"Alas......" seemed to think of this, and Li'er didn't want to think about it like this, she only felt that God was too unfair to her young master......
Just when Li'er was thinking like this, Dan Xuan's hands were becoming more and more free, and the movements in his hands were getting faster and faster. In a short time, two plates of dishes with good colors and flavors were already born, neatly placed on the table next to them, and bursts of aroma emanated from the plates......
Li'er sniffed her nose gently, only to feel that the aroma of the tantalizing dish was overflowing, and she really wanted to go over and taste it immediately. Thinking like this, Li'er's stomach gurgled twice. Li'er was unbearably shy, and her little face was also flushed.
Dan Xuan smiled slightly, and the movements in his hands never stopped, and each dish gave people a sense of being done in one go. And Dan Xuan also felt more and more comfortable, and only felt that these utensils in his hands were easy to use.
Next, Dan Xuan even combined cooking and performance, the movements were clean and neat, the starting points were not bad, and the dishes made were also good in color and fragrance, and the plates were like beautiful scenery, which made people salivate unconsciously and couldn't stop.
......
By the time the master and servant were ready to eat, it was already late at night, with a small square table and two antique chairs, the master and servant sat opposite each other. On the table are seven or eight plates of bright dishes, as well as two soup plates.
"Li'er, is there any wine at home?" Dan Xuan only felt refreshed, and couldn't help but feel a little like drinking.
"Yes, young master, I'll get it!" said the little girl, and jumped to get the wine.
In a short time, there was another jug of wine and two glasses on the small table. Originally, Li'er didn't think that her young master would let her drink with a girl, but she didn't expect Dan Xuan to really let herself drink with her, and in the end she could only pick up the wine glass and drink with Dan Xuan.
When the moonlight is in the sky, the white moonlight is like a wisp of tulle, floating gently in the breeze. The breeze was blowing, and the shadows of the hazy trees in the courtyard were slowly swaying. In the quiet courtyard, only the laughter of the master and servant remained......
The little girl was overwhelmed by the wine, and after a while she fell asleep on the chair, with a happy smile on her pink little face. Dan Xuan carried Li'er back to her own room, and returned to the moonlight.
To the moon...... Raising his glass, Dan Xuan drank it all, and a slight flush appeared on his fair face.
"Now, only you know me......"
A fluttering word seemed to float out of the void......
