Chapter 48: The Immortals Throw Their Shoes
In the early morning, Qi Jingzhi, who had not slept all night, gently pushed open the door of his yard, his shoes were still stained with blades of grass, and his trousers were already wet with dew.
The old yellow dog lay by the door as usual and pretended to sleep, not bothering to lift his eyelids, but covering a big gnawed bone in front of him more tightly.
A bonfire in the courtyard has been extinguished, and the air is filled with not only the aroma of barbecue, but also the very strong fragrance of mountain fruits.
When the boy looked around, he saw a large pile of fruit pits gathered in the corner of the wall, and many of the flesh had not been eaten, and it was covered with messy bite marks, which looked like a mess.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Jiao Yulang jumped out of the kitchen and exclaimed excitedly: "Brother is back!" The predecessors of the mandrill sent a lot of monkeys and monkeys, and took advantage of the fact that no one was in the middle of the night to send the remaining tiger meat and tiger bones, and also brought a lot of fruits, half of them were eaten and half of them were left, and they chattered until dawn. ”
Qi Jingzhi imagined the scene of Jiao Yulang eating fruit with a group of monkeys, and suddenly said angrily: "It's not that you can't eat enough, so you cheekily beg your seniors to find a way!" ”
As he spoke, he walked into the kitchen, and saw that Qi Laohan was holding a knife to cut tiger meat, and couldn't help but be a little worried: "Grandpa, you haven't slept all night?" ”
Qi Laohan was so busy that he didn't raise his head, and said happily: "Jiao Wazi said, eating tiger meat can greatly replenish blood and qi, and drinking tiger bone wine can strengthen muscles and bones, strengthen the waist and kidneys, and dispel wind and cold, which is very beneficial to martial arts." This is still an ordinary tiger, and our head has become fine, so it will be even more expensive, and it will be used to lay a foundation for you. ”
"Don't say it, Grandpa, I just ate a piece of barbecue, and my stomach is like lighting a stove, and my whole body is full of strength!"
Qi Jingzhi took a closer look, and saw that Grandpa's face was ruddy and radiant, and the sickness and fatigue caused by the spine cane had also disappeared, so he was relieved.
Jiao Yulang followed, and when he saw a smile between the Qi family's elder brothers' eyebrows, he whispered a little proudly: "Grandpa only said that you are practicing martial arts, and I will just say it, and I will never leak my mouth!" ”
Qi Jingzhi nodded silently, withdrew from the kitchen with Jiao Yulang, and returned to his room.
He closed the door, looked at Jiao Yulang with a solemn expression, and suddenly bowed.
The little baby was startled, and waved her hand again and again: "Brother, what are you doing, if you have something to say, just say it!" ”
Qi Jingzhi's tone was extremely solemn: "I won't hide it from you, I accidentally got a remnant sutra a few days ago, although even the exercises of the Zhuangmei realm are not complete, but it is a real cultivation scripture." Although you are young, you have a wide range of knowledge, I want to ask you, where did this remnant scripture come from, is there a way to complete it, and what are the consequences if I learn it without permission? ”
Qi Jingzhi has been thinking about these questions for a long time, Master Meng is not good at cultivation, and he clearly doesn't want to inquire and interfere, Yu Lao Chenghuang may know, but it is easy to involve Lu Yunzi's affairs, and the consequences are really unpredictable, but he can ask Jiao Yulang, a half-familiar person, for advice.
Hearing this, Jiao Yulang's expression also became solemn, and his eyes said for a moment: "The monk's scripture is the foundation of enlightenment, you and I have just met, brother can think clearly, do you really want to tell me?" ”
Qi Jingzhi smiled freely: "Shanxiao's predecessors and my grandfather both like you, and I should believe in you." What's more, it's just a remnant, I use it as a climbing crutch, and I use it when I use it, and I can trim it without taking advantage of it, or just change it. As for the foundation of enlightenment, shouldn't it be me? ”
Jiao Yulang was a little stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that after only one night, the Qi family's brother's conversation temperament had changed significantly, and he was more resolute and high-spirited, as if he was looking down on everything from the inside out.
The little baby held back for a long time before nodding and said, "Please tell the brother the name of the remnant, if the little brother knows, he should know everything." ”
Qi Jingzhi did not hesitate, and immediately said the name of the "Immortal Feather Sutra" along with a part of the general outline.
"The Book of Immortal Feathers?"
Jiao Yulang's expression immediately became strange: "Is there really such a scripture in this world?" When I was a child, I heard the elders in my family mention it, and I had the right to listen to it as a story. ”
He frowned slightly, and thought carefully for a moment before saying, "Roughly speaking, hundreds of years ago, there was an immortal surnamed Feng who turned into a farmer and lived in seclusion in the mountains and wilderness of Daqi. One day, when the rain was pouring down and the roads were muddy, the neighbor's boy came to borrow straw sandals from him, but the immortal refused to borrow them, saying that others could borrow straw sandals, but he couldn't. ”
These straw sandals were a very cheap and common thing, and the boy next door felt that he was being despised and immediately spoke ill of him. The immortal was also annoyed, and said that he wanted to make you a disciple, but he didn't want to be so stubborn, so he should go to Xianyu Mountain to be a crane attendant who pushes cloud carts and holds peach blossoms. ”
With that, the immortal threw his straw sandals on the boy next door, and the boy turned into a crane on the spot! Then the immortal stepped on the crane's back, and one man and one crane flew away. ”
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi's face also became strange.
If the children in Shanqian Village are disobedient, the elders will scare the wolf woman with a doll in the mountain, which is similar to the story of Jiao Yulang, at most the latter is more elegant, most of it was told to him by Jiao Yulang's elders when they were sleeping.
Jiao Yulang also seemed to feel embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "This story is a little unreliable, but in my Daqi, straw sandals do have two aliases: 'no borrowing' and 'crane shoes'. ”
"It is said that there is a follow-up to this story, someone found a nameless exercise from the grass house where the immortal surnamed Feng lived in seclusion, because the immortal had mentioned Xianyu Mountain, and the exercise was also named. It is said that many people from the rivers and lakes rushed to compete, and some practitioners were even involved, which really set off a bloody storm. ”
"Now that hundreds of years have passed, there is no trace of anything left except for the story itself, at least I have not heard of the sects and powers that use the "Immortal Feather Sutra" as the main scripture. The so-called Immortal Feather Mountain is completely gone, even if it really exists, I am afraid that it is not in the territory of Daqi. ”
"The exercises that my brother got may be true, or maybe it is the name that the descendants will take after the chisel attached, the advantage is that there should not be much trouble, and the disadvantage is that it is likely to be impossible to complete, and there is no teacher to rely on."
Qi Jingzhi nodded and said with a smile: "That's a mixed bag?" After all, it's not the worst situation, at least there won't be any high-ranking people who will be angry with me for stealing the exercises and want to eradicate me. ”
Jiao Yulang saw that there was no frustration on the face of the elder brother of the Qi family, so he relieved his heart and comforted: "As my brother said, the monk himself is the foundation, and there is also unborn power in the scattered cultivation. ”
He was obviously comforting words, but Qi Jingzhi seemed to take it seriously, nodded and said, "There's no place to make it up, I'll make it up myself." It's just that I'm new to cultivation and have shallow knowledge, and I don't have this ability yet, so in a few days, I will go to the county town Demon Duwei to take a trip to exchange a few exercises to open my eyes. ”
Jiao Yulang was stunned when he heard this, he really couldn't imagine that the brother of the Qi family was so ambitious, or should it be said that he was too arrogant?
"Senyu Mountain...... Crane Shoes...... Pushing cloud mountain, peach blossoms? It's really fun! ”
Qi Jingzhi ignored the little baby's complicated expression, and muttered to himself, obviously distracted.
The scriptures of the "Immortal Feather Sutra" flowed through his heart, this exercise was only a fragment, and the third step of the Zhuang Life Realm was devoted to the wings of the refinement, and there were only two lonely sentences left.
"The heart shakes like a dancing crane, and the bones come out like a flying dragon!"
