Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 12 The First Glimpse of the Doorway
Outside the tea shop, there was a young man in a blue robe, turned over and dismounted, and his eyes couldn't stop looking into the courtyard.
One of the boy's best friends, the boy in the red brocade robe, parked his horse elsewhere and waited to see a good show.
Sure enough, Mu Tao walked out of the yard unhurriedly and looked at the strange boy with indifferent eyes.
"You're looking for me? Have we met? ”
Wei Yuhan's heart was sour, but he still smiled and said: "Xiaosheng Wei Yuhan, I just had a relationship with the girl in the lotus alley, but I just made people and failed to get acquainted with the girl, so I dare to ask the girl's name?" ”
The guests in the tea shop, Lu Ying and Fu Qi all looked at the heroic son, and after a little deduction, they could guess that this Wei Yuhan Wei Gongzi was most likely in love with Mu Tao.
"What's my name, and what does it have to do with you?"
"This ......" Wei Yuhan looked embarrassed, and complained bitterly in his heart.
I really don't blame him Wei Yuhan for being too reckless, on weekdays in Daqi Dongjing, with his identity as the second prince of Wei Yuhan and Wei, as well as his appearance, how many women are haunted by his dreams, and street painters paint and sell with his true face, causing thousands of empty alleys and peddling out.
No matter how arrogant and cold the talented women and beauties are on weekdays, they all pretend to be drunk at the banquet to recommend their pillows, but they don't succeed.
Wind and moon red dust, smooth sailing, he has never been troubled by the pursuit of women, and this is the first time.
"If you have anything to do with me, please come back if not."
Wei Yuhan was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly offered the bundle of rouge in his hand: "I was outside the rouge shop in Lotus Lane just now, and I saw that the girl hesitated for a long time, but she still didn't buy the box of rouge. ”
Mu Tao's expression became more and more cold, and Wei Yuhan felt terrified in his heart.
"Give it to me? What is the rationale? It's useless, I appreciate your kindness, take it back. ”
Wei Yuhan's face became more and more ugly, and finally asked the question he wanted to ask the most: "Xiao Sheng dares to ask, what kind of relationship does the girl have with the young man Fang Cai?" ”
Xu Hun stood in the distance, with a burst of embarrassment, slapped his forehead, and sighed: This nerd, does he ask people such a direct question?
Mu Tao was angry, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and she was just about to make a move.
"Wood girl, you are."
Mu Tao turned his head, and the swarthy boy ran out of the alley, sweating profusely, holding a box of rouge in his hand.
Wei Yuhan's face was quite ugly, and Xia Ze just glanced at it and ignored it.
"Wood girl, this is for you." Xia Ze handed over the things in his hand and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
"For me?"
Mu Tao looked at the palm-sized jade rouge box in his hand, the jade was a little whitish, and it was very cheap to look at.
The lid of the box is carved with a slim hairpin maid, apparently from a fledgling jade master, and the carving is somewhat rough.
Spread out the lid, the pomegranate-colored rouge powder is as delicate as fine sand, ten fingers lightly grinded, the rouge powder slipped from between the fingers, the girl's fingertips left a touch of vermilion, and the wind blew through and could smell a faint fragrance of Su Fangmu.
Mu Tao held the rouge box in his heart, and his eyebrows and eyes were like crescents.
smiled sweetly at Xia Ze: "Thank you, I like it very much." ”
Xia Ze smiled back: "It's good if you like it." ”
The scene in front of him, in Wei Yuhan's opinion, was like falling into an ice cave, obviously he just knew the girl's surname, he looked at the rouge in his hand, the decorated box, the color and price of the rouge, which is not better than the shabby young man?
"Isn't this the rouge we've seen in that shop?"
The reason why Mu Tao asked like this is because the fingertip rouge is still a little moist, warm, and bright in color at the moment, not like the goods that have been deposited in the rouge shop for a long time.
Xia Ze nodded: "The town is a big palm, and the shopkeeper is not willing to spend some money to buy goods from the two countries of Dazhou and Daqi, and the women in the town have been picking and picking for almost two years, so naturally they are not so clean, and they are easy to mold in rainy weather." This box of rouge was made by me when I went into the mountains a few months ago, collected Su Fangmu, red and blue flowers, and I only need to pick a little bit of fine hairpin and rub it on my lips, which is enough; Melt it with a little water and wipe it in the palm of your hand, and it will be enough to pat your face. ”
Mu Tao's heart was hot, it turned out that this guy had just gone to boil rouge.
Ignoring Wei Yuhan, who was in the same place, Xia Ze and Mu Tao turned around and walked back to the yard with a smile.
Wei Yuhan suddenly felt a bad chill, and when the young man passed by him, he didn't shy away from it, and he was so angry that he threw the rouge in his hand on the ground, stepped into the mud, and brushed his sleeves away.
When he saw Lu Ying, Xia Ze didn't say anything, put a box of rouge boxes that were exactly the same as Mu Tao's hand on the stove, and left.
Lu Ying's vision was a little blurry for no reason, and she wiped it with her sleeve while she was looking up, the figure of the plainly dressed swarthy young man, who always raised his head high when he walked, but his heart was as careful as a hair, and he unconsciously overlapped with a similarly kind man in her memory, since he died, no one had given her rouge for many years.
Xia Ze was ordered by Lu Yingfa to sit on a low Mazha with a steaming bowl of mustard greens and lean porridge.
Opposite him, there was a Li You with a somewhat pale face, and when he saw Xia Ze coming in, he stubbornly leaned against the head of the bed.
Big-eyed stared, speechless.
In the end, it was Xia Ze who took the lead in breaking the deadlock, scooping up a spoonful of porridge and water, and Nunu mouthed: "You have to eat, how can you be good if you don't eat." ”
The spoonful of porridge water was handed to his mouth, crumbling, Li You looked flustered, for fear of dripping on the bed, so he simply swallowed it, and after a while, his face turned red.
Xia Ze was a little unbearable, so he put the next spoonful to his mouth and blew it, but unexpectedly, this scene was extremely dazzling in Li You's eyes, and he refused to eat anything.
The angry Xia Ze grinned, if it weren't for Lu Ying and Mu Tao's face, he wouldn't have been able to get rid of this face.
Finally, I found a puff fan out of nowhere.
He didn't understand that Li You had a very paranoid cleanliness habit, and he loved to be clean the most on weekdays, and every time he finished cultivating, he had to bathe and change his clothes.
"I heard Mu Tao say that you want to cultivate and become a Qi Refiner?"
Xia Ze nodded, and the guy on the other side shook his head: "The innate qualifications are poor, the avenue of qi cultivation is hopeless, and it may be smoother to follow the path of martial arts." ”
Xia Ze rolled his eyes, and regardless of Li You's willingness or not, he picked up the bowl and scooped up a spoonful of porridge water and handed it to his mouth.
Li You was helpless and ate most of the bowl in one go.
"I'm not burying you, after all, you helped me detoxify, if you want to know about the Qi Refiner and the Martial Arts realm, I can tell you, it's just that it involves things that the mountain people avoid, and you need to understand it yourself."
Xia Ze was a little surprised, this kid's attitude was much better.
Li You cleared his throat: "Qi refiner, the name is different in different places, some places are called Taoists, and some places are called Fangshi. The names are different, but the ultimate goal of Qi Refiners is the same end, that is, to achieve immortality and ascend to immortality. ”
"The Taoists among the hundreds of sons firmly believe that the Tao is the law of the operation of all things in the world, and the Tao is natural. The Tao is the ultimate destination of people and all living beings, and human beings, as the first kind of creatures after the two qi of Qiankun and Kun are divided into heaven and earth, have the possibility of enlightenment and ascend to immortals, so they are born with an innate aura in the body, and the size of this qi determines a person's talent for cultivation. ”
"With the small world of the human body as the furnace, the mind as the fire, the breath as the wind, and the true qi and aura as the medicine, we finally practice an inner pill. There is a saying that it is called forming a golden pill, and it is my generation, and the golden pill has been formed in the body, and it is only then that the threshold of refining qi is first seen. ”
"There are various ways to practice qi, such as meditation and pranayama; Alchemy; Practicing all kinds of thunder methods and great heavenly immortal recipes are all qi training. ”
"There is a Qi Refiner, there are fifteen realms, Kaiyuan Realm, Xinglu Realm, God Worship Realm, Qi Gathering Realm, Kaiguang Realm, Mixed Yuan Realm, Xianglong Realm, Xiangdi Realm, Fatian Realm, Taiyi Scattered Immortal Realm, Daluo Realm, the remaining five realms are rarely known in your Ethereal Continent, I am not good at revealing the heavenly opportunity, every difference is a realm, such as the next heavenly moat, and each realm is divided into three stages."
"Among the Qi Refiners, the sword cultivation has the greatest killing power, if you can cultivate the Natal Flying Sword, you can climb a realm when facing the enemy."
Xia Ze listened a little fascinated.
Li You's painting style changed: "The martial arts line is just the opposite, upholding a pure martial arts true spirit, taking advantage of the wind on the top of the mountain, the big waves of the rivers and lakes, the thunder and the earth to polish the martial arts' physique, fighting with the avenue of heaven and earth, fighting with the pawns of the peddlers, and fighting with the wild beasts." ”
"Poor and rich in martial arts, pure martial arts, extremely difficult, like wild dogs digging food, not an inch of land, so few people can make achievements on this way, pure martial arts are divided into ten realms, stubborn stone realm, red realm, Xianrui realm, lake heart realm, Tibetan Feng realm, peak realm, sea viewing realm, wind realm, King Kong realm, Ming Wang realm."
"It is rumored that the martial artist is still lost in the eleventh realm, and now no one knows that in Longsheng Continent, where we are located, the highest level of martial arts is the Ming King Realm. Before the Seven Realms, if a Qi Refiner was close to a martial artist of the same realm, without a Dharma Protector, there was almost no chance of winning. ”
Li You took out a yellow-covered boxing book from his arms and handed it to Xia Ze, the name of the boxing book was blurry and couldn't be seen clearly.
"This boxing book was found by accident in the family's library cabinet, the boxing book is not properly kept, the real name of the boxing method is unknown, I haven't seen the mystery for many years, I think it's just an ordinary boxing book, and I take the road of Lei Fa and sword cultivation, I can't divide the heart into three uses, this boxing book will be given to you."
Xia Ze shook his head: "I'll take this boxing book, even if I bought it with you, the money will be owed first." ”
Li You asked, "Can you tell me why you want to become a Qi Refiner?" ”
Xia Ze didn't even think about it: "In order to become a living immortal in everyone's mouth and be admired by thousands of people, if anyone provokes me, thousands of flying swords will fall from the sky and take people's heads thousands of miles away." ”
The young man on the bed frowned: "Think about it again." ”
Xia Ze Zhengse said: "In order to be able to travel thousands of miles in the future, drink the best wine, ride the fastest horse, see the great mountains and rivers of Kyushu, see the road is uneven, draw a knife to help." Lead the knife into a fast, live up to the boy's head! ”
"The first half of the sentence is a bit sincere and chic, and the rest of you will think about it when you are blowing the conch."
So Xia Ze thought about it seriously, and suddenly smiled: "In order to become a certain woman's little girl, to be the most powerful and chic sword immortal in the world!" ”
Li You nodded, a rare heartfelt smile.
"Very good!"
