Chapter 2 Moon Lotus
In the quiet room, Xia Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged, was preparing to attack the cultivation threshold.
More than a month had passed since Xia Yuan crossed over, and his cultivation had reached the peak of the third layer of the quenching body, ready to attack the fourth layer.
After personal practice, Xia Yuan deeply realized the rebellion of the Tibetan inheritance.
The original master of the Qianyuan Qi Refining Technique in terms of absorbing and gathering aura, mainly in Zhou Tian, supplemented by the eight veins, the name of the exercise is quite mysterious, but in fact, it is only a very rough and stupid exercise, the aura absorbed is less, and there is still a lot of aura that escapes. The means of refining the body with aura are also poor, and there are always some places where the tempering is not enough, which makes it difficult to advance to the top.
Zang Luo's exercises don't have any fancy names, they are simply called quenching the body. With the five elements growing together, yin and yang complementing each other as the core. When performing the exercises, start from the yang vein, follow the principle of the five elements to take the hidden veins of the five organs, and then go out from the yin vein, and connect the yang vein.
The symbiosis of the five elements doubles the efficiency of the body's absorption of aura, doubles and doubles, and the fusion of yin and yang makes the absorbed aura rarely escape. In the end, the cultivation efficiency of gathering spiritual energy was about thirty times that of Xia Jiaqianyuan's Qi refining technique.
In terms of body quenching, more attention is paid to systematically refining the body, which is subdivided into viscera, meridians, flesh and blood, bones, fascia, and skin, and guides the aura to temper the body through different methods such as tearing, concussion, hammering, squeezing, and infiltration according to the different parts of the body.
In this way, to the peak of quenching, there is no shortcoming in the strength and vitality of all parts of the body, and it can reach the neckline, and then through the guidance of divine consciousness and the urging of aura, the body can produce a qualitative change and can smoothly advance to the top.
Xia Yuan closed his eyes and calmed his mind, rehearsing the details of the process of rushing through the level again, and after confirming that it was correct, he began to attack the fourth layer.
The third layer to the fourth layer of the quenching body is the first level that the cultivator encounters, and if you break through to the fourth layer, you can release the aura, cast the primary spells, and use items such as spirit runes and array flags that need to be activated by the aura.
After all, inheriting the memories of the great cultivators, in less than a pillar of incense, Xia Yuan easily advanced to the fourth layer without being shocked.
After a little consolidation, Xia Yuan stood up and walked out of the quiet room.
This house is divided into two entrances, there are many houses, the yard is very large, the front yard lives two servants and two servants hired locally, and Xia Yuan and Yahuan Yuehe live in the backyard.
There is a small flower garden in the north corner of the backyard. In the flower garden, Yuehe is pruning the flower branches with a pair of scissors.
Xia Yuan was in a good mood after being promoted, and when he saw the beautiful girl in a tender yellow dress among the flowers, focusing on taking care of the flowers and plants, he only felt pleasing to the eye, and stopped to watch silently.
Yuehe's appearance is very delicate, not flamboyant, it is a very pure and clean kind.
Yuehe is two years older than Xia Yuan, and he is eighteen this year. After Xia Yuan's father died that year, the family chose the twelve-year-old to serve the ten-year-old Xia Yuan.
The little girl is very conscientious and careful, and she is also very peaceful, and she has served the original owner very well for six years. Growing up with a withdrawn young master, she also developed a quiet and cold temperament.
Yuehe pruned in the flower garden for a while, his forehead was slightly sweaty, he took a few steps back to look at the effect of pruning, nodded with satisfaction, and turned around to see Xia Yuan standing at the door of the quiet room.
Stunned, Yuehe slowly walked to Xia Yuan's side, bowed slightly, and saluted: "Young master." ”
Xia Yuan responded casually, squinting his eyes slightly and looking at Yuehe carefully. Xia Yuan was very satisfied with the woman in front of him with a delicate appearance and a quiet demeanor. Ingenious and industrious, loyal and conscientious, Xia Yuan believes that this is the best inheritance inherited from the original owner.
"Girl, in a few days, young master, I will teach you to cultivate. Xia Yuan said with a smile.
The girl looked up in surprise and replied with a little confusion, "Okay, young master." ”
Xia Yuan bowed slightly when he heard this, and walked unhurriedly along the bluestone road to the front yard.
For the moon lotus that he is very satisfied with, he has long had the intention of cultivating. However, as a personal maid ring, Yuehe has only undergone simple literacy and arithmetic training in the family, and he does not know anything about meridians, acupoints, and the internal structure of the human body.
Xia Yuan planned to start directly from practice and use her own aura to guide her cultivation. In the past, there were less than four layers of quenching body, and the aura could not be released, but now there are four layers of quenching body, and after a few days of consolidation, the plan can be implemented.
Yuehe followed behind the young master, and thought slightly chaotically in her heart: "After the young master woke up from a coma, he has changed a lot, he is much more cheerful, much gentler, and his eyes are no longer gloomy and decadent, but firm and confident. Now he calls himself a girl in private, and he no longer takes care of the affairs in the Zhuangzi, and he is busy cultivating, and now he wants to teach himself to cultivate. ”
Yuehe was a little confused in her heart, and immediately thought that she was just the young master's personal girl, no matter what changes the young master had, take good care of the young master and listen to the young master. The mind is certain, and the steps are brisk.
Xia Yuan walked into the hall in the front yard, sat down on the main seat, and Wen Yan instructed Yuehe: "Call Steward Lin." ”
Yuehe went out in response and found a servant to tell him to inform Steward Lin to come quickly.
After a while, Lin Shan hurried over, entered the hall and bowed to Xia Yuan: "What is the owner's instructions for finding subordinates?" Lin Shan is nearly fifty years old, his temples are already gray, and he is a little out of breath when he walks too quickly.
Xia Yuan waved his hand: "Steward Lin sat down and took a breath and said, there is no hurry." ”
Lin Shan sat down as he said, and a servant woman served tea.
After Lin Shan sat down, Xia Yuanfang said warmly: "I have been working hard for Lin to manage things for more than a month. ”
"It should be, it should be. Lin Shan replied hurriedly, muttering in his heart whether Xia Yuan was going to take power.
Xia Yuan saw the suspicion that flashed in Lin Shan's eyes, and his heart was clear. He is not the ignorant boy of the original owner, he comes from the earth where information explodes, and has the practice of office struggle, Lin Shan's careful thinking Xia Yuan is clear.
This grange has 2,000 acres of arable land and a granary, all of which belong to the Xia family. Every year, the cost of ensuring production, repairing leaks, transportation and purchasing is quite huge, which is not small, and there is a lot of oil and water.
Where is Xia Yuan still interested in these things now, he perfunctorily said a few words to Lin Shan, and ordered him to continue to be in charge of the affairs of the Grange, and there is no need to ask for instructions if there is no major matter.
Sent away Lin Shan, Xia Yuan thought while slowly drinking tea. Entering the fourth layer of quenching, there are many things that can be done. Spells, runes, and formations can all be practiced. Spells are easy to say, just take the time to do it, both the spirit rune and the magic circle need materials, and it seems that earning spirit stones is on the agenda.
The original owner sold all his family wealth when he left Guning City, and exchanged it for nineteen low-grade spirit stones at the price of five hundred silver and a low-grade spirit stone, and took the spirit stone to the town tomorrow to see if there was any way to make money.
Early the next morning, Xia Yuan hurried to Ping'an Town, fifty miles away, and with his cultivation, he arrived in an hour.
Ping'an Town is also located at the foot of the Lishan Mountain Range, but the hills are gentle. Several small streams that originate from the Lishan mountain range converge here to form the Xiliu River.
The Xiliu River is an important river for the defense of the country, which flows through the capital of Jianchang County, Guning City, and the capital of the defense of the country, Danyang City.
Because of the convenient transportation, gentle mountains and abundant water sources, Ping'an Town has become the best choice to enter the Lishan Mountain Range. Those who enter the mountain to practice, hunt demon beasts, and collect spiritual materials are all gathered in Ping'an Town, which is quite prosperous and has no less than an ordinary small city.
Xia Yuan entered Ping'an Town, saw that the scale of this town was not small, and was thinking about finding someone to ask for directions, when he suddenly heard someone calling his name, and turned his head to see that it was Xia Ming from the same period of ethnography. At the beginning of the three-layer quenching body during the adult assessment, he was assigned to the Xia Family Fu Paper Workshop here as a deputy manager.
Xia Ming has a cheerful and enthusiastic personality, and although he is not friends with the original owner, he is the only person in the clan who can say a few words to the original owner.
"Xia Yuan, how are you doing? Xia Ming, who was dressed in green clothes, patted Xia Yuan's shoulder.
"It's been good lately, so I'm here today to buy some talismans and array things. Xia Yuan replied with a smile.
Xia Ming's eyes widened, and he glanced up and down Xia Yuan in surprise: "Hey, Xia Yuan, after a few days, you don't seem to have changed as a person, you used to be a stuffy gourd." ”
Xia Yuan said gently: "There's no way, now that I'm out to do things, I can't do anything without change." ”
The coarse Xia Ming simply accepted Xia Yuan's statement, and his demeanor returned to normal, "I'll take you to buy something, what are you buying? Who did you buy it for? You came out early, right? Hurry back at night or stay here for one night?......" While talking non-stop, he dragged Xia Yuan towards the place where the materials were sold.
Xia Yuan couldn't help grinning, and said in his heart that this person was a talker.
The two walked around a few shops in the town, and Xia Yuan found that drawing talismans was a good trade. So he used the seven spirit stones to buy the spirit rune pen, the three spirit stones bought a bottle of spirit ink, the five spirit stones bought a set of array nails, and the four spirit stones bought twenty pieces of rune paper, although they were all the lowest-grade, but they were enough for Xia Yuan to start in the early days.
After the matter was done, he invited Xia Ming to have a meal at noon, politely declined his invitation to play for a few more days, and Xia Yuan left to return to the village after the meal.
Back in Zhuangzi, Xia Yuan went directly into the meditation room, preparing to set up a gathering yuan array in the meditation room. Open the box containing the array nails, and there are twenty-four array nails inside. The round head of the purple and red formation nails is the size of a chess piece, and the nails are three inches long, which is the most simple equipment for arranging and fixing the formation.
After setting up the Juyuan array with eighteen array nails, Xia Yuan felt it in the array, and the concentration of spiritual energy was close to three percent.
After cultivating in the Juyuan Array for a while, and his state returned to his best, Xia Yuan took out the spirit pen, spirit ink, and rune paper. After thinking about it for a while, I decided to draw a rigid body symbol with relatively simple points. Closing his eyes and carefully recalling the experience and perception of the Tibetan talisman several times, Xia Yuan began to make talismans for the first time.
As a result, eight of the twenty rune papers were wasted and twelve rigid talismans were painted. I calculated in my heart that this kind of rigid body talisman is two spirit stones in the shops in Ping'an Town, and it can be sold for twenty-four spirit stones.
A bottle of spiritual ink can make fifty talismans, twenty-four spirit stones can buy two bottles of spiritual ink and ninety rune paper, and the next time you maintain a success rate of sixty percent, you can make fifty-four talismans, which is worth one hundred and eight spirit stones, and the profit is still good. In the future, when the success rate of drawing characters increases, the profit will be even more.
From the drawing talisman Xia Yuan also found that although he inherited Zang Luo's memory and understanding, the drawing talisman seems to be very easy, but after all, it is separated by a layer, and there are many big and small problems in the real implementation. In Zang Luo's memory, there was no failure in drawing this kind of low-level talisman, and the quality of the talisman was much higher.
Xia Yuan thought thoughtfully, it seems that it is not necessary to sit back and relax if you get the inheritance, but you still have to comprehend and practice diligently, otherwise you will waste this precious opportunity.
Since then, Xia Yuan has been immersed in cultivation, drawing talismans, practicing spells and guiding Yuehe's cultivation every day, and every once in a while he goes to Ping'an Town to sell talismans and buy materials.
A few months later, his cultivation was promoted to the seventh level of the quenching body, and his divine consciousness was able to release alchemy refiners, so he added alchemy refiners to his daily practice.
In the busy summer, Xia Yuan's cultivation has steadily improved, and he has become more and more proficient in spells, talismans, alchemy and refining tools, and Yuehe has also begun to cultivate under his patient guidance, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to Xia Yuan's plan.
