Chapter 9: Cultivation
The next morning, the sky was bright.
The first rays of sunlight in the sky shone into the windowsill, and Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes.
That night, he fell asleep very late. Lying on the bed, he tossed and turned, thinking of his sister, of his father, of his mother.....
I don't know what happened to them now, if I let my sister know the news that I successfully joined the Martial Sect, my sister will definitely jump up happily.
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Tian's mouth curled slightly.
Forget it, if you don't want to do this, let's hurry up and prepare breakfast for Shizun and Senior Sister.
He jumped to his feet, stretched and walked towards the kitchen.
Soon, he walked towards the inner courtyard with a pot of steaming porridge.
I saw that the master and the senior sister were already waiting at the stone table.
"Senior brother, you have to get up earlier in the future, don't displease your master," Mu Xue said solemnly on the side.
"Okay, I know, senior sister" Lin Tian hurriedly trotted over and left a bowl of porridge for Wanqing.
"Lin Tian, you haven't cultivated martial arts yet, so I don't blame you. The most precious time for us martial arts cultivators to cultivate is in the morning. Because the aura in the morning is the strongest, it is also the best time for us to cultivate martial arts. Wan Qing said solemnly on the side.
"Okay, Master, I must remember the master's instructions." Lin Tian drooped his head like a child who had done something wrong.
Soon, several people left after breakfast.
Lin Tian packed up the dishes and chopsticks and trotted to the library pavilion.
He remembered that his master had instructed him to come here today to sort out his books.
Pushing open the door of the library pavilion, I saw rows of bookshelves in the main hall lined up all around, there were hundreds of bookshelves, each of which was half a wall high. Volumes of books are lying quietly on the shelves, but they are also a little cluttered, and the visits are uneven.
Lin Tian stepped in, thinking, Master should have asked me to put these books in order.
He walked over to the first row of shelves, picked up a book that had fallen aside, and was about to put it back on. He glanced at it: he saw that the scroll was written "Qi Gathering Technique".
He was very excited, this was the first time he had come into contact with the secret book of exercises, and he didn't know what was written in it, whether it was about how to cultivate.
Just as he was about to open the book, he suddenly remembered that his master had instructed him not to tamper with the books inside. If I move at this time, wouldn't it be against the master's order?
Moreover, a man ought to be righteous and not to do these small things.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and put the books on the shelves. Although I really want to see it in my heart, I should also get the permission of my master.
He was stunned, and then got busy. While picking up the books scattered on the ground, I organized the scattered books on the shelves and arranged them neatly.
What Lin Tian didn't know was that at this moment, Xu Xiaotian and Wanqing were feeling Lin Tian's every move with their divine sense on a hill outside the main hall.
Seeing Lin Tian act like this, Xu Xiaotian smiled unconsciously.
It seems that we should not be mistaken in person! This person is born with martial bones, and his nature and character are good, which is worth cultivating!
Wanqing also smiled slightly: after these subtle temptations, it can indeed be seen that he is upright, backbone and proud. On the way to martial arts, he is indeed a good seedling.
With that, the two walked towards the cave behind them.
Before I knew it, it was noon, and the scorching sun shone at the door of the main hall. Lin Tian lay straight on the ground.
After sorting out his books all morning, he was sweating profusely and panting heavily. I secretly said in my heart: Not good! It's noon, and I have to cook for my master and sister.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian ran to the backyard with a smoke.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Lin Tian came to the inner courtyard with the food, only to see Mu Xue sitting at the stone table looking at him.
Why don't you see the master? Lin Tian asked.
"The master has entered the cave to cultivate, and he will usually return in the evening." Mu Xue smiled playfully.
"After dinner, you can come down the mountain with me to pick some wild vegetables." Mu Xue said again.
"Okay senior sister" Lin Tian hurriedly picked up the bowl and gulped down the rice.
Looking at Lin Tian, who was eating in front of him, Mu Xue smiled in her heart: This junior brother is too sincere! You can't bully him in the future!
Soon, after the two finished eating, Lin Tian put away the dishes and chopsticks and ran towards the kitchen.
When he walked to the door of the main hall, Mu Xue was already waiting here, and she still held the small basket from yesterday in her hand. Coupled with a snow-white dress, it looks like a fairy going down to collect medicine.
Seeing Lin Tian coming, she turned her head and smiled: Let's go.
Lin Tian followed behind in a hurry.
"Senior sister, where are we going to pick wild vegetables?" Lin Tian asked curiously.
"Whoa! Right at the foot of that mountain. Mu Xue pointed to a small mountain peak not far away.
"Then we usually only eat wild vegetables, no meat," Lin Tian scratched his head.
"Meat? Yes! There is a room in the sect, but I am too far away, and I usually don't bother to go there to get it. Mu Xue blinked.
"Oh, I see, if there's game in the mountains, I can catch some." Lin Tiandao
Really? That's great! I haven't eaten meat in a long time! Mu Xue jumped happily and pulled Lin Tian's arm.
Lin Tian was a little embarrassed, so he had to say.
My father and uncle were both hunters in the village, and I grew up with them in the mountains, so naturally I also learned some hunting skills.
Wow! Brother, you're amazing.
Along the way, Mu Xue led Lin Tian on the winding mountain path, talking and laughing. And Lin Tian generally just answered.
Half an hour later, they came to the foot of the mountain. Lin Tian looked at the dense jungle around him and said to Mu Xue:
Senior sister, you wait here for a while, I'll go in and catch some game!
"Good! Be careful. If you encounter a wild beast, call me out. Without waiting for Mu Xue to finish speaking, Lin Tian turned around and slipped into the jungle.
This junior brother is really cute! Mu Xue grinned, and then picked up a small basket to look for wild vegetables around.
After an hour, Mu Xue's basket was already full. There are mushrooms, wild vegetables, fungus.....
She found a large rock by the stream of the mountain stream and sat down, and swung in the water with her bare feet, so uncomfortable.
Why did the junior brother go for so long and not come back? Mu Xue muttered.
Suddenly, there was movement in the grass not far away, and with a bang, a figure jumped out, carrying two hares and a pheasant in his hands.
Seeing this, Mu Xue hurriedly made a gesture towards Lin Tian.
"Senior brother, you are really amazing! In the future, we will all have a mouthful," Mu Xue jumped happily and led the way in front.
With the setting sun, the two walked back to the library along the winding mountain road. Looking from afar, it looks like a pair of childhood sweethearts who have no guesses, Mu Xue is running in front, and Lin Tian is following closely behind with his head down.
Half an hour later, they returned to their dwellings.
Lin Tian carried the hare and pheasant and walked to the kitchen.
Soon after, the smoke rose, and the fragrant smell filled the entire courtyard.
Mu Xue rolled her saliva and said to Wanqing:
Master, my junior brother is so powerful. He also hunts, and we have meat to eat tonight.
Oh? We haven't eaten meat for a while, and it's hard for you to stay with me for so long.
Hehe, I follow my master's cultivation, focusing on martial arts, and this hard waiting is not hard. Mu Xue said seriously.
Wan Qing nodded with satisfaction, the martial arts are all the way, and only by seeking the Tao can you go further.
In an instant, Lin Tian walked into the inner courtyard with a plate of fragrant stewed rabbit and roast chicken.
The three masters and apprentices, without much to say, hurriedly built them.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Mu Xue patted her round little belly with satisfaction and said:
Brother, the food you cook is so delicious, if it goes down like this every day, I will gain weight.
Lin Tian scratched his head embarrassedly.
That's it, the days are uneventful.
Lin Tian's daily work is to sort out the books in the library and follow Mu Xue to pick vegetables.
And Wan Qing has never had the intention of instructing Lin Tian to cultivate.
And so three months passed,
Six months have passed......
On this day, Lin Tian was sorting out his books as usual, when an old man in a gorgeous robe walked in, and when he looked up, it was the sect master Xu Xiaotian.
Lin Tian hurriedly got up and bowed!
Xu Xiaotian waved his hand, no need to be polite. Then he looked at Lin Tian with a smile and said:
Do you know why we haven't asked you to cultivate all these days?
Lin Tian shook his head, he was also wondering in his heart.
"Because your physique is relatively special and you have not built a foundation, your master and I have been studying how to teach you some exercises, so that it can be perfectly integrated into your innate martial bones." Xu Xiaotian said.
Building a foundation is not only the body, but also the foundation of the avenue. Suffice it to say, how high your ceiling will be in the future depends on how deep your foundation is.
Of course, if you can break through your own shackles, even if the foundation is poor in the early stage, you can make some qualitative leaps.
These are all for ordinary martial artists, and you have innate martial bones.
Suffice it to say, your ceiling may be beyond all of us realize.
Because none of us have ever seen the constitution of the innate martial bones, let alone how to guide your cultivation.
Ay! This is all due to the fact that my cultivation is too low. Xu Xiaotian shook his head and sighed.
Well, you can cultivate in the same way as an ordinary martial artist. As for what you can achieve, it depends on your own creation.
Then, Xu Xiaotian pointed to Lin Tian's eyebrows, and Lin Tian shrank back in fear.
I saw some cultivation methods on how to build a foundation, which were slowly reflected in his mind.
Seeing this, Lin Tian hurriedly bowed.
Thank you, Sect Master!
If you have any questions, you can always go to the cave in the back mountain to find me. At this time, a woman dressed in dark green walked in, it was Lin Tian's master, Wanqing.
Lin Tian hurriedly nodded.
In the future, you don't have to organize books and prepare meals for us, you can go to Xuanyin Cave every morning to practice.
Xuanyin Cave? Lin Tian frowned puzzled.
"It is the cultivation place of the inner disciples, the aura is abundant, and there are many cultivation insights left by the ancestors in it, and going there to cultivate is more effective than doing it outside."
When Lin Tian heard this, his heart was overjoyed.
I can finally cultivate, and I will become a martial artist in the future.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian couldn't help but laugh out loud in his heart. But on the surface, it is silent.
Congratulations to the Sect Master! Congratulations to the Master!
Before the two could speak, the forester ran towards the backyard.
The two looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled......
