Chapter 73: Blue Soul (1st Update)
Li Muchan shook his head and smiled: "If you don't go with me, find someone to marry, live a peaceful and stable life, follow me, it will inevitably be dangerous." ”
Xiuxiu said: "I'm the master's person, how can I do it if I don't go with the master!"
Li Muchan said with a smile: "I helped you redeem yourself at the beginning, first, I pity your life experience, and second, you are smart and well-behaved, and you will suffer with me." ”
Xiuxiu lowered her head and said softly: "My father and mother are gone, I am the only one who is alone, I have a master now, you don't want me anymore?"
She looked up at Li Muchan, her eyes were bright and full of tears.
Li Muchan sighed, shook his head and said: "Xiuxiu, I am a martial artist, my head is tied to my belt, and I will die at any time, it is really not a wise move for you to follow me!"
"I do. Xiuxiu said softly.
Li Muchan heard the resolute stubbornness in her words, and sighed: "That's it, since you have chosen this path, then from today on, you will practice martial arts!"
"Martial arts?" Xiuxiu's eyes were burning, and tears were still there.
Li Muchan said: "Yes, follow me, it's dangerous to have no martial arts, but it's very hard to practice, can you be a weak woman?"
"Yes!" Xiuxiu nodded vigorously: "Master, I have long envied those women who fly around! No matter how much suffering there is, I am not afraid!"
She thought of her lonely and helpless situation at the beginning, and she was extremely envious of those women who knew martial arts.
Li Muchan smiled and nodded, she has experienced hardships in life, and her tenacity is far beyond that of ordinary weak women, which is quite accomplished.
"Then I'll pass on your mind today. Start cultivating. Li Muchan said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Xiuxiu nodded excitedly.
Li Muchan said: "Call me son." I'm not that old. ”
Xiuxiu looked at him suspiciously, and Li Muchan smiled: "Go prepare the wooden barrel, and you will bathe later." ”
Xiuxiu thought that he wanted a ritual before passing on his martial arts, and he needed to bathe and burn incense, so he obediently agreed: "Yes, master...... Childe!"
Li Muchan waved his hand: "Put it in my room." ”
"Yes, Childe. Xiuxiu nodded, Yingying left, she looked delicate and weak, but after all, she was a child of a poor family. The strength is not small, it is very difficult to carry a large wooden barrel, but it can barely be moved, and there are two middle-aged maids. She doesn't have to do this kind of thing herself.
After a while, she returned to the pavilion: "Childe, it's all right." ”
Li Muchan nodded, got up and walked outside the pavilion, Xiuxiu followed, and the two came to Li Muchan's house.
――――
There was already a large wooden barrel in the center of the room, which could hold a few people, and the hot white air was blowing, and the whole room was a little warmer.
Li Muchan ignored it and sat directly on the couch. Pointing to the other side: "Sit up cross-legged." ”
As soon as Xiuxiu entered the house, Xiumei's face turned crimson, thinking that he had finally opened his mind and wanted his own body, she gritted her teeth and decided to go along with him, she was his anyway.
Hearing the latter sentence, she was stunned.
Li Muchan smiled: "Don't think crooked, sit like me!"
Xiuxiu's face turned even redder, and she hurriedly lowered her head and sat on the couch. Li Muchan put on her vest and said softly: "It's not good for a while, you have to endure it." ”
"Yes. Xiuxiu replied in a low voice.
Li Muchan began to exercise, and a bubbling internal force was injected into her body, and began to warm her body. She started to feel comfortable, but then slowly changed. Crisp and soft and sour, and then it was painful and torn, and the body first seemed to be torn apart, and then it became a thousand cuts.
She almost fainted in pain, but thinking of the helplessness at the beginning, she gritted her teeth and remained motionless, her body was not her own, and she looked down coldly.
Time passed slowly, and she felt that decades had passed, a long time of almost despair, and she was groggy, and a will was hard to hold on. ...,
Suddenly, in an instant, she woke up, and the pain slowly receded like a tide, numb and comfortable, and her body was as light as a feather, and a gust of wind could blow it.
Li Muchan's voice sounded: "Okay, Xiuxiu, wash first, change your clothes, and then start cultivating." ”
"Yes, Childe. Xiuxiu responded weakly, staggered, and her whole body seemed to be fished out of water, and her clothes were attached to her body to reveal her graceful curves, which was seductive.
Li Muchan didn't seem to see it, got up and got off the bed, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the wooden barrel, and suddenly the white gas was steaming, and the heat hit people.
He left the room, turned and closed the door, and the footsteps faded away.
Xiuxiu leaned on the wooden barrel as if she was paralyzed, trembling and holding on to the edge of the barrel, the cold water was pressed by Li Muchan, and it suddenly turned into hot water.
She glanced left and right, although there was no Li Muchan watching, but this was his room, Xiuxiu always felt a little strange, took off her shirt with a red face, and struggled into the barrel.
The hot water enveloped her, she was light, her spirit suddenly lifted, as if she had recovered some strength, she sat in the hot water, a mantra suddenly poured out of her mind, and there was a scene, as if it was her own appearance, she was in a strange posture, this person's body seemed to become transparent, a red line started from her mind, and followed a strange route all the way to the dantian, and the cycle was endless.
As soon as she saw this scene, her body couldn't help but turn with the scene in her mind, and a warm ocean flashed from her mind, and then slowly circulated in her body, taking the route in her mind.
Before she knew it, time seemed to stop passing, and when she came back to her senses, the water was still hot, but it felt like a long time had passed.
The water is warm, and there is also a warm breath in the dantian, like a ball the size of an egg, which is slowly circulating, as if it is affecting the flow of the breath of the whole body.
It was a wonderful feeling, she was comfortable, light as a feather, and she felt infinitely powerful, as if a punch could knock a hole in the sky.
――――
Li Muchan's voice came from outside the house: "Xiuxiu, are you awake?"
"Childe!" Xiuxiu exclaimed, covering her chest in a hurry, and then woke up to Li Muchan outside the house, and hurriedly said: "Childe, I'm fine!"
"Hmm. Get dressed. Let's go out for a walk. Li Muchan said softly.
Xiuxiu hurriedly responded: "Yes, Childe." ”
She looked up, and suddenly froze, her face was flushed, and there was a set of goose yellow Luo shirts on the small table outside the barrel, and she clearly remembered that there was a set of green shirts before entering the bath.
She thought that Li Muchan was going to bathe and change clothes, so she put the green shirt in place, but she didn't expect it to be herself, but at this time it had been changed to goose yellow.
She knew at once that someone had come in. Could it be Childe!?
She was blushing, shyly guessing, and Li Muchan's laughing voice came from her ear: "Don't rub it in, I went in." ”
"Male-son-!" Xiuxiu sneered.
Li Muchan smiled: "Don't worry. I didn't look too much, I'm waiting for you in the back garden!"
The footsteps gradually faded away, the room was quiet, she blushed, slowly came out and put on a Luo shirt, feeling that the whole person was completely different, pushing open the door and seeing, the clear and beautiful world came into view, she had never found that the world was so beautiful.
She felt as if her whole being had been cleansed, not only her eyes. The heart was cleansed, and everything seemed like new.
When she arrived in the back garden, Li Muchan was sitting in the small pavilion reading, and when she saw her coming, she put down the book and looked at her with a smile.
She had never felt so shy, and his eyes seemed to have weight, pressing her body and staggering to the front.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad!"
"Thank you, Childe!" Xiu Xiu Yingying saluted, her changes were all due to the people in front of her. Although it is his person, I still want to express my gratitude.
Li Muchan waved his hand: "That's it, let's go out for a walk, you have been staying in the yard for the past few days and not going out, although it is stuffy!"
"Childe. I don't care. Xiuxiu said: "I like to stay at home, I don't like to go out." ”
Li Muchan smiled: "Then come with me!"
He understood that this was the truth. is because she has suffered and knows that the world is sinister, and nothing is as safe as her own home, and the prosperity outside is only for the rich, but it is not so good for ordinary people.
"Yes. Xiuxiu responded obediently.
――――
The two walked out of the courtyard and slowly walked around Jingzhou City.
Jingzhou City is very large, extremely prosperous, there are everything that is sold, several streets have their own main business, some are ready-to-wear, some are jade jewelry, there are calligraphy, painting antiques, and all kinds of snacks.
The two of them started shopping, tasted a few snacks, and then walked around and slowly walked to the antique street.
Li Muchan has nothing to do, he has been too lazy to come over to shop for antiques, although he has been in this world for a short time, he doesn't know much about it, and he has to start anew.
In the original two worlds, he looked at antiques one by one, and he never forgot his memory, plus he usually liked to read a lot of books and was knowledgeable.
The world in front of me is new, I don't know everything, I look at antiques and I am purely blind, I can't recognize the good and the bad, antiques are a cultural sustenance, I don't understand these, these antiques are broken bricks and tiles.
Xiuxiu looked at the small shops in front of her, she was very curious, antiques can only be played by rich families, and when she used to go shopping, she didn't dare to look at it at all.
The two of them entered a small shop, which was full of stones, all kinds of stones, strange shapes, different colors, some green, some green, some yellow, and red, and it was very lively to watch.
Li Muchan glanced at it, he didn't recognize any of these stones, but he reached out and touched it, the owner of the small shop was a round old man, sitting on the recliner with a leisurely expression, holding a book, caressing the snow hair and looking, seeing the two of them come in, they just nodded, not enthusiastic.
Li Muchan also nodded, touched the stones one by one, and finally stopped on a green stone, raising his eyebrows.
After taking a few careful looks, Li Muchan felt strange and pointed to the palm-sized round stone: "Uncle, what kind of stone is this?"
The old man sat up from the recliner, put down the book slowly, stroked his hair and smiled: "Hehe, the son has good eyesight, this is the Blue Soul Stone." ”
Li Muchan smiled: "Blue Soul Stone, why haven't you heard of it?" ”
The old man stroked his beard and smiled: "Hehe, this blue soul stone is extremely rare, it is said to be condensed by the blood of the ancient beast, the blood of ordinary people and beasts is red, the blood of this ancient beast is green!"
Li Muchan laughed and shook his head, although he didn't fully understand the world, he had read a lot of books, read legends and myths, and indeed had some ancient beasts, and the lifespan of these ancient beasts was extremely long, even reaching 10,000 years. But whoever reaches 10,000 years. The blood will turn red to green.
The old man stroked his hair and smiled: "Whether the son believes it or not, the old man believes it, this blue soul stone is very rare and precious!"
Li Muchan glanced at the old man with a smile: "Interesting, interesting,...... The name of this blue soul stone was given by you personally, uncle, right?"
The old man's hand stroking his beard stopped, and then he laughed: "Seeing a smile and laughing, it seems that the son is also an expert,...... Yes, how did you come up with the old man's name?"
Li Muchan smiled: "It's funny. I like it!...... According to this legend, I will also buy this stone and put it in the water to look good!"
"Exactly. The old man laughed, not embarrassed.
Li Muchan doesn't understand antiques. I don't know about stones, but I have a heart, and he can find out the old man's thoughts, and the old man who knows this strange stone doesn't know either. ...,
――――
Li Muchan said: "Uncle, is there any more of this stone?"
The old man smiled and said, "Childe really wants to buy it?"
Li Muchan nodded and said, "It's very beautiful, if you put it in the water, it can make the water green,...... I'm about to make a water spring, and it's good to put it in,...... Where did you get it?"
The old man stroked his hair and said with a smile: "Childe." That's not a cheap price. ”
Li Muchan used his heart to understand that this stone was picked up by him unintentionally, and when he was climbing the mountain to find a stone, he accidentally found on the top of a mountain that the mountain was not high, and the stone was the top one, and the surrounding stones were rounded by the wind and rain, but it was still angular.
He was curious, so he found someone to move it back, and then sharpened it like jade. This green stone was found in the center of the stone, as if it was the essence of this stone.
Although he didn't recognize it, he thought it was a good thing, so he put it out and wanted to sell it for a good price, but unfortunately people didn't recognize it. After decades here, he went from hope to disappointment. In the end, I didn't bother to think about it anymore and just treated it as an ordinary stone.
However, its color is green, and it is not flattering, so no one has bought it, and today he finally met Li Muchan, who knows the goods, and he was very excited.
It's not that I want to sell it for a good price, it's that what I discovered has finally gained recognition.
"Boss, quote a price!" Li Muchan smiled happily, took the palm-sized green stone in his hand, and rubbed it.
The old man groaned, gritted his teeth, and stretched out a finger: "One hundred taels!"
Li Muchan smiled and stretched out one: "Ten taels!"
The old man shook his head hurriedly: "No, it won't work, just to transport it from the mountain to home, it will cost more than ten taels!"
Li Muchan said with a smile: "My husband has been on the table for a hundred years, and no one has bought this stone?...... Unlike this bloodstone, this is the real soul stone. ”
He pointed to some red stones beside him, there were blood-red spots on the stones, which looked like blood was splattered on them, the color was auspicious and very pleasing, but the green was not so pleasing.
The old man said painfully: "Eighty taels, it really can't be less!"
Li Muchan smiled: "Fifty taels, my husband doesn't have to talk about it anymore, I'll take it if it's okay, forget it if it doesn't work!"
“...... Alright, here you go!" the old man nodded viciously.
――――
The two went out of the shop, Xiuxiu held the stone, looked left and right, frowned, and was very unconvinced.
She couldn't see anything unusual about this green stone, it didn't look like it was worth fifty taels, she sold herself to the Hundred Flowers Boat, but it was only ten taels, such a broken stone was worth five of herself?
She asked suspiciously, "Childe, such a stone is worth fifty taels?...... Could it be a baby?"
Li Muchan smiled and nodded: "It's a baby." ”
"What baby?" Xiuxiu suddenly became excited.
Li Muchan smiled: "I can't tell you clearly for a while, but you will know in the future, let's go!"
"Childe is no longer shopping?" Xiuxiu glanced around in disappointment, still unsatisfied.
Buying things to pick up treasures, which makes her feel a sense of accomplishment, in the past, she didn't like to go shopping, because she felt very dangerous, she was too helpless as a weak woman, and anyone could threaten herself.
Now with Li Muchan, she feels safe, as if she is hiding under a big tree, she can protect herself, and she is not afraid of anything.
With this sense of security and security, she feels that it is a pleasure to go shopping again, as if the world has changed and is indescribably wonderful.
Li Muchan smiled: "Wait for tomorrow, come back tomorrow and continue shopping!"
"Okay!" Xiuxiu smiled.
When the two returned home, Li Muchan came to the pavilion with the turquoise stone and sat down, asked Xiuxiu to fetch a basin of water, and then put the stone into the water. ...,
Suddenly the water turned turquoise, and it looked like sea water, which was beautiful.
"It's beautiful!" Xiuxiu admired as she stood by.
Li Muchan nodded: "It's really good...... Wait for a look at the spring over there, put the stones in the spring, it will be more beautiful!"
"Yes. Xiuxiu nodded vigorously.
Although this back garden is good, but it is less smart, she has always wanted to tell Li Muchan to get some water, only the flowers have no water, and there is a trace of vitality.
Xiuxiu waited for Li Muchan for a while, everything was in order, and then went to the middle of the flower garden, where there was a small martial arts training ground.
She came to the martial arts training ground, assumed a strange pose, and began to practice.
Li Muchan's mental method is not to sit and practice, but to stand and walk, which is completely different from the ordinary martial arts method, and is a new mental method created by himself by combining many secrets.
Li Muchan is confident that this mental method is stronger than any mental method in the world, and Xiuxiu has always been by his side, so he can rest assured and boldly let her practice, and once something goes wrong, he can correct it immediately.
The big deal is to let her start over, for him, it is not difficult to create a master with empowerment, but he doesn't want to shock the world, Xiuxiu is a person around him, but he is not afraid.
Li Muchan watched her quickly enter the state of concentration, and nodded slightly, she was able to enter the state so quickly, one is that she has a simple heart, and the other is that the heart method is exquisite, which is directly mixed with the method of spiritual cultivation.
He played with the turquoise stone in his hand and smiled.
This blue soul stone is indeed not an ordinary stone, its value is far from being comparable to jade, and it contains a huge amount of power.
It's a pity that it's hard for people in the world to feel this power, and they can't use this power, but Li Muchan can use this power and can use it to arrange formations.
The formation of this world is useless, because the vitality of heaven and earth is thin, and the root of the formation is to use the vitality of heaven and earth to turn into a universe.
Jade can store vitality, Li Muchan can beat vitality into jade, and then use jade to form a formation, but the vitality stored in jade is limited after all, and it will be exhausted in the blink of an eye.
Now with this Blue Soul Stone, it's different. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
