Chapter Seventy-Three: A Pair of Straw Sandals
When Lu Yangsheng opened his eyes again, the sky outside had just dawned, and he frowned and pushed away Jiang Guining's stinky feet on his face, and cautiously walked out of the wooden house.
Taking a deep breath of the morning air, a cool feeling instantly dispelled the drowsiness, making Lu Yangsheng only feel refreshed, completely dispelling the drowsiness and the smell of stinky feet in his nostrils.
Because Lu Yangsheng usually slept on straw, it was the first time in a long time that he slept in a bed, which made him somewhat uncomfortable, which made Lu Yangsheng laugh at himself.
Feeling sleepy, Lu Yangsheng walked to the side of the water tank and scooped a little water into the basin, and after washing, he was suddenly relaxed.
After doing all this, Lu Yangsheng walked to the open place, looked at Dongfang who was showing the whiteness of the fish's belly, took a deep breath, and then sat down cross-legged in front of Dongfang and began today's cultivation.
Jiang Guining once inadvertently said that the breath of the day lies in the morning. He said that the aura between heaven and earth is also divided into attributes, and for people in practice, the gains brought by different attributes of aura are not the same, and among these different aura, the most beneficial to people in practice is the qi of Taiyin and the qi of the yang. The energy of the Taiyin originates from the Taiyin star, that is, the moon, and the qi of the Yang originates from the sun.
In the early morning, especially when the sky is just white, the sun will not rise, and the moon will not set, the aura between heaven and earth will be precipitated overnight, and it is also the lightest time. At this time, because it is the time when yin and yang meet, coupled with the light aura of aura, there will be the qi of Taiyin and the qi of the supreme yang at the same time.
Yunlai purple qi is precisely the product of the fusion of Taiyin Qi and Sun Qi, but this kind of aura cannot be artificially created, only the natural fusion of Yin and Yang Qi can be produced with a certain probability. In other words, if an ordinary monk wants to absorb the purple qi of the clouds, he can only succeed if he tries his luck by cultivating in the early morning.
Therefore, all monks, as long as there are no special circumstances, will choose to practice in the early morning.
Besides, even if you can't meet the purple qi of the clouds, the qi of the Taiyin and the qi of the supreme yang are not something that can be encountered casually, even if you take a step back, the turbidity qi wrapped in the aura of the early morning is the least, and you can get twice the result with half the effort when you use it for cultivation. Therefore, most monks do not miss this time in the morning.
When people, there are certain exceptions, such as a certain Taoist priest who is sleeping in the house.
This time the practice was the first time that Lu Yangsheng carried out it without the help of outsiders and without being in a coma, he carefully felt the aura enter the body from the heart, then walked all over the body, and finally included every detail of the dantian, carefully felt the difference here, and deepened the perception of the meridians by the way.
Although the speed of cultivation will be much slower in this way, since Jiang Guining reminded him, Lu Yangsheng has already understood the truth that if you want to be fast, you can't reach it, and he will no longer blindly pursue the speed of cultivation.
It is said that this practice has no years, Lu Yangsheng finally collected the aura into the dantian, and when he opened his eyes again, the sun had completely come out, but the fog in the mountains and forests had not completely dispersed, and the sun shone on the foggy above, looking at the direction of the town from afar, making the town like a fairyland.
Opening his mouth and exhaling a breath of turbidity, Lu Yangsheng officially ended his day's cultivation. He stood up, walked to the door of the wooden house and took a look at the house, and saw that Jiang Guining was still sleeping, so he quietly retreated again.
Walking to the kitchen, Lu Yangsheng began to prepare breakfast for two people, and after a while, the smell of rice wafted out.
"Yo, the meal is almost ready?"
Lu Yangsheng glanced at the door of the house, and saw Jiang Guining unbuttoning his pants, he stared at Jiang Guining, and said helplessly.
"Dao Chief, can't you stay away? I'm cooking. Besides, that's where we sleep, can you be a little more particular? ”
Hearing Lu Yangsheng's reminder, Jiang Guining picked up his pants and walked into the distance.
"I said, little brother, can you not be so annoying, we cultivators, we pay attention to doing whatever you want, but what about you? I want to take care of everything. ”
Walking to a small hill, Jiang Guining unbuttoned his pants and began to pour thousands of miles, he hummed while urinating: "Urinating in the wind, flooding the Seven Kingdoms ......"
Lu Yangsheng listened to Jiang Guining's complaints, and said in a low voice: "Come on, you can do whatever you want, I will be content if I can save my life." ”
It didn't seem to hear what Lu Yangsheng said, Jiang Guining turned around while peeing and asked, "What did you say?" ”
Lu Yangsheng replied loudly angrily: "It's nothing, it's just calling you to eat." ”
As soon as he heard that it was time to eat, Jiang Guining hurriedly sped up the speed of peeing, and he shouted loudly: "You wait a while, I'll be fine right away." ”
……
After eating, the old rules, Lu Yangsheng cleaned up the mess, and Jiang Guining continued to go back to the house and lie down.
"I said, I'm so lazy, how did you embark on the path of cultivation?"
Lu Yangsheng really couldn't look down on Jiang Guining's lazy appearance. Every day, in addition to eating, I know how to find a place to lie down, how do such people practice?
Jiang Guining heard Lu Yangsheng ask, and raised his head and rolled his eyes.
"Can you handle it?"
Lu Yangsheng pointed at himself.
"I really can't care about you, but Dao Chief, have you forgotten what you came up the mountain for this time?"
As soon as Jiang Guining heard that he was going to work by himself, he was immediately unhappy.
"What are you anxious about? Am I not ready? Wait, when the time is right, I'll help you. Besides, Xiaodao, I slept in the straw nest at your house for so long, and I was about to die, and now I finally have a bed, why don't you let Xiaodao give me a good rest? ”
After speaking, Jiang Guining covered his head with a quilt, no matter how Lu Yangsheng shouted, he just wouldn't show his head.
Lu Yangsheng really had no choice but to let it go.
"Lu Yangsheng? Are you here? ”
In a trance, he seemed to hear someone calling him, Lu Yangsheng hurriedly looked at the place where the voice came from, and after seeing the person clearly, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Uncle Feng, are you looking for me?"
Lu Yangsheng tried his best to control his speed within a normal range, and after a while, he ran to the person who came, and this person was Li Nianfeng.
Li Nianfeng watched Jiang Guining run over, he didn't go any further, he stopped in place, breathed a few breaths, and explained his intention.
"Yangsheng, something happened in the town yesterday, and my father said that he needed you to go back, so he asked me to call you."
Lu Yangsheng "chuckled" in his heart, but there was no change on his face.
"What's the matter? Is it appropriate for me to go? ”
Lu Yangsheng looked at the filial piety clothes on his body, and his face was full of embarrassment.
Li Nianfeng's face was also full of embarrassment, but thinking of his father's advice, he could only say stubbornly.
"No way, my father asked you to go by name. In this way, you can talk to the ninth master, just say that there is something important, and then take off your filial piety clothes and put them in the house. I think the Ninth Master can understand. ”
Lu Yangsheng's eyes were a little unnatural, and he asked in a low voice, "Nian Uncle Feng, what is the matter?" Do I have to go? ”
Li Nianfeng also noticed Lu Yangsheng's unnaturalness, but he thought that Lu Yangsheng was nervous, so he didn't pay attention to it.
"Don't ask, you'll know when you get there, hurry up, maybe we'll be scolded if it's late."
Lu Yangsheng took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became firm.
"Okay, then read Feng Shu, you wait a while, I'll go talk to the ninth master."
Li Nianfeng nodded, and Lu Yangsheng hurriedly ran back to the cemetery.
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Lu Yangsheng knelt in front of the grave of the ninth master, whispered the matter clearly, and then he entered the house and began to change his clothes.
When Lu Yangsheng entered the house, Jiang Guining glanced up at him, and said angrily: "Can you not keep going in and out, it's annoying or not." ”
Lu Yangsheng didn't say anything, and changed his clothes by himself.
When he was about to finish changing his clothes, Lu Yangsheng suddenly said to Jiang Guining: "Dao Chief, I need to go back to the town, and it is estimated that you will have to cook by yourself at noon." ”
Jiang Guining glanced at Lu Yangsheng and hummed angrily.
"If I don't come back and there is nothing to eat here, you can go to a rice shop in the north of the town, find a woman named Li Rou, and say that you are a Taoist priest who lives in my house, and if you ask her for food, he should give you ......"
Before Lu Yangsheng finished speaking, Jiang Guining was suddenly unhappy.
"Okay, okay, are you bothered? I also didn't let me sleep. ”
Hearing Jiang Guining's impatient voice, Lu Yangsheng suddenly stopped talking, he turned around and began to walk towards the door.
"Wait."
Lu Yangsheng had just walked to the door, and suddenly heard Jiang Guining shouting to himself, he hurriedly turned around, but suddenly saw two black shadows smashing towards him, and he hurriedly reached out to pick it up. When he got it in his hand, Lu Yangsheng finally saw these two things clearly - they turned out to be two pairs of straw sandals.
"The filial piety doesn't even have a pair of mourning shoes, and he has a pair of bare feet all day long, and he is not ashamed. I made these shoes myself when I was too busy to do anything, and they are not worth much, so you can make do with them first. ”
Lu Yangsheng hugged the straw sandals in his hand, and his nose suddenly became a little sore.
"If you have something to do, go your way, don't disturb my sleep."
may be the reason for getting up angry, Jiang Guining's tone of speech is particularly impulsive.
"Thank you."
Lu Yangsheng thanked him softly, then turned around and ran out of the house, not forgetting to close the door for Jiang Guining.
"Pretentious."
Jiang Guining pursed his lips with a look of disgust.
Out of the door, Lu Yangsheng carefully put on straw sandals, jumped lightly a few times, and smiled all over his face.
Shoes, this is your own shoes. For so many years, Lu Yangsheng never felt that he could be so happy.
Seeing Li Nianfeng waiting for him from afar, Lu Yangsheng smiled and ran towards him in a hurry.
Li Nianfeng looked at Lu Yangsheng who was smiling happily, although he didn't know why he was so happy, but the corners of Li Nianfeng's mouth unconsciously showed a hint of a smile.
————
Today, there are many people outside the ancestral hall in the town, and if you look down from the entrance of the ancestral hall, you can see that the ancestral hall is almost crowded with people.
It's been a long time since the town has been so lively.
In the ancestral shrine, the patriarchs of each clan sat on their chairs, waiting for the judgment to come.
Time passed quickly, and it was almost noon, and finally someone couldn't hold it back, and he asked Li Chengyuan in a low voice.
"Patriarch Li, the time is almost there, right? Why don't you see the prisoners come out? ”
Li Chengyuan glanced at the person who spoke, and replied with a smile: "Patriarch Song, what's the hurry, the people haven't arrived yet, wait." ”
The old man known as the Song patriarch glanced at the direction where the head of the Song family was in the courtyard, shook his head slightly, and seemed to have received some reply, so he could only speak hard.
"Patriarch Li, aren't all these important people here? Who else do you have to wait? Besides, the villagers in this town still have something to do, so they can't delay the time of the big guys for one person, right? ”
Li Chengyuan frowned, and was about to speak, but unexpectedly, someone else took the lead.
"Song Lao'er, if the old man remembers correctly, the dead person this time is someone from my Liu family, what's the matter, when did Liu Mazi change his name to Song Mazi? Why doesn't the old man know? ”
"Old man Liu, you ......"
Patriarch Song didn't expect Liu Yunyi to speak so impulsively, and he was suddenly choked and speechless.
"What am I? Old man, as the patriarch of the Liu clan, I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about? Let you wait and wait, what so much nonsense? ”
Patriarch Song didn't care about it, but at this time, he was squeezed by Liu Yunyi like this, and his face was a little unbearable for a while.
"Okay, as the patriarch of a clan, what kind of system does it become to be noisy in front of the ancestors? Shut up for me. As for who he is waiting for, you will know when he comes. Rest assured, it won't be long yet. ”
Li Chengyuan was really a little upset, and it was even more annoying to see the two patriarchs arguing here.
Seeing that Li Chengyuan was angry, Liu Yunyi and Patriarch Song couldn't quarrel anymore, so they could only silence themselves and obediently shut their mouths.
After a while, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the ancestral hall.
"Mourning Star, this is an ancestral hall, who allowed you to come?"
Then another voice came.
"Are you blind? Didn't see me? I invited people, what? Are you going to stop me? ”
"Less...... Young patriarch? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. How dare we stop you? ”
"Then you won't give way!"
"Yes yes yes ......"
Listening to the voice outside, Li Chengyuan's frowning brows finally relaxed.
After a while, Li Nianfeng came in, and in addition to him, there was actually a child who also came in.
"Father. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry I'm late. ”
Li Chengyuan nodded, motioned for Li Nianfeng to retreat, and then looked at the child brought by Li Nianfeng.
"Lu Yangsheng, come up for a moment."
Seeing that Li Chengyuan actually let a child enter the ancestral hall on such an occasion, the patriarchs of the various clans in the ancestral hall suddenly frowned.
Lu Yangsheng cautiously glanced up at Li Chengyuan, seeing that Li Chengyuan had an angry expression on his face, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he hesitated, but slowly walked towards the ancestral hall.
"Wait, I have something to say."
Just when everyone was looking at Lu Yangsheng, someone suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence at the moment.
