Chapter 382: The Endless Sea (2)
Coming out of the bamboo forest, Xia Yu's mood was mixed, on the one hand, he was excited that he could enter the Endless Sea, and on the other hand, he was worried because of Qin Xiang's prophecy.
Zhao Wu had been waiting outside the bamboo forest, and when he saw Xia Yu coming out of the bamboo forest, he immediately strode up to meet him. "Xia Yu, you're out. Walking in front of Xia Yu, Zhao Wu suddenly noticed that Xia Yu was holding a small teacup in his hand, which contained a turquoise liquid. Zhao Wu seemed to remember something and asked. "The dean invited you to drink this too?"
Hearing Zhao Wu ask like this, Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly understood: "Yes, the dean also invited you to drink?"
"I've drunk it, I, Senior Brother Tianming, Senior Brother Cheng, Cao Rui, and other senior brothers have all drunk. Zhao Wu said. "I don't know what this thing is, maybe Senior Brother Tianming and Senior Brother Cheng know, but neither of them said it. When I drank it, I felt that this liquid was extremely spicy, spicier than the strongest liquor, but when Cao Rui drank it, he said that this was the best tea he had ever tasted in his life, and so did the other brothers and sisters, and everyone drank it differently, which was really strange. ”
When Xia Yu heard this, his face immediately changed slightly, and he couldn't help but be taken aback in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What about Elder Cheng and Great Elder Tianming?"
"Hmm......" Zhao Wu frowned and thought about it seriously. "Senior Brother Cheng, I forgot about it, Senior Brother Tianming seemed to say after drinking...... He didn't drink anything, and he said there was no taste ●. ”
"No taste......" Xia Yu savored this sentence carefully, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Zhao Wu then asked, "Xia Yu, what did you drink?"
"I?!I ......" Xia Yu looked down at the teacup in his hand, his slightly thin face was reflected in the turquoise liquid, and he sighed helplessly. "I can't describe the feeling, I don't know...... What exactly did you taste? ”
........................
Since this bamboo forest talk. Xia Yu stayed in the Tai Academy, and this conversation was regarded as the top secret of Huaguo, and only a very few people knew about it. Later, at Xia Yu's request, he returned to the house where he lived with Meng Siqi, which was quiet. Few people bothered Xia Yu, only Tianming and the old children sometimes visited Xia Yu, Xue Hao also visited Xia Yu a few times, and now he has already advanced to the Great Yuan Realm, Tianming gave him more rights, everyone is talking in private, Xue Hao should be the next Taixue Eight Sages.
At the end of that conversation in the bamboo forest, Xia Yu asked Qin Xiang his own question: "Why did your cultivation stagnate and you can't move forward half a step?"
Qin Xiang listened. pointed out sharply: "Xia Yu, I know that you have a strong temperament, but everything that is too good and strong may not be a good thing, and the so-called speed is not enough." After entering the Great Yuan Realm, the way of cultivation has also changed, and comprehension is often more important than meditating and practicing day and night. ”
Xia Yu suddenly realized after hearing this. He obeyed Qin Xiang's advice and returned to his original residence. Every day, I no longer forget to sleep and eat, and begin to meditate and cultivate my nature, dance with swords in the morning, chant poetry in the evening, and play with flowers and plants during the day, or play in the landscape.
But. Xia Yu didn't practice at all, the turquoise liquid he got from Qin Xiang was regarded as a treasure by him, and every time he only took a small sip, and then began to meditate. Each meditation is very long, as short as three to five days. It is a month, and no matter how long it is, every time you wake up from meditation, Xia Yu will have a feeling of being separated from the world and enlightened.
In the blink of an eye, two months had passed, and the turquoise liquid that Qin Xiang had given to Xia Yu had gradually bottomed out, and only the last sip was left.
Xia Yu didn't want to simply finish the last sip, so he climbed to the highest peak of Beihua Mountain, sat on the mountain, looked at the rolling sea of clouds in the distance, drank the last sip, and entered meditation. But Xia Yu didn't expect that it would take him half a year to close his eyes this time.
The stars are moving, the moon is full and the moon is missing, Xia Yu sits on a boulder on the mountain, as if he is integrated with the mountains below, and looks at the sunrise and sunset with Beihua Mountain, bearing the wind and rain. It was midsummer when he closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, it was already the early spring of the second year, half a year was long and distant for others, but for Xia Yu, it was only the length of a dream.
One morning in the second year, when Xia Yu slowly woke up from his sleep and was about to open his eyes, there was a sudden roar in his body. This voice can't be heard by the outside world, but Xia Yu felt like thunder exploding in his ears, he was immediately shocked and suddenly opened his eyes, and then it seemed to be a matter of course, without the slightest ups and downs, Xia Yu broke through calmly and successfully entered the late stage of the Great Yuan Realm.
When Xia Yu woke up, the sea of clouds in the distant valley was still rolling like a dragon, and the ancient pines around him were still green and vigorous, and nothing seemed to have changed, as if time had stood still.
Xia Yu didn't know how long it was, he slowly got up from the boulder, raised his arms high, and stretched a big lazy waist.
"Ah~~ This sleep is really comfortable. ”
As soon as Xia Yu's words fell, a girl's surprised voice suddenly came from behind him: "Brother, you're awake!"
Xia Yu was immediately taken aback, he turned around suddenly, only to see Wan'er standing not far behind him, behind Wan'er, there was also a huge tent, at this time, Xia Xue was lifting the door curtain with one hand, stepping out of the tent with one foot, she saw Xia Yu, and stayed in place in surprise.
"Why are you here?" Xia Yu asked in surprise, he clearly remembered that he had only written with Xia Xue a few days ago, and Xia Xue said that she couldn't leave for a while, and she needed to wait a while before she could come to Tai Academy.
"What the hell am I ...... How long have you been asleep?" Xia Yu then asked.
"Brother, you're finally awake!" Wan'er happily threw herself into Xia Yu's arms, buried her little face in Xia Yu's chest, and shouted loudly. "You've been sleeping for half a year!"
"Half a year!" Xia Yu couldn't help but cry out in shock.
"yes, you've been sleeping for half a year. Xia Xue walked out of the tent and came to Xia Yu with a joyful smile on her beautiful face. "I, Wan'er, Bai Pengfei, Wang Jin, Li Chunfeng, and Li Yu have all come to Tai Academy, and Wan'er and I have been guarding you here for half a year. ”
"Oh no!" Before Xia Xue could finish speaking, Xia Yu suddenly screamed anxiously. "I made an appointment with Uncle Qin to enter the Endless Sea in five months, and now it's overdue!"
"Well, brother, you can rest assured. Wan'er let go of Xia Yu and smiled happily. "Uncle Qin said, he is waiting for you. Now, Uncle Qin should be waiting for your news in the Tai Academy. ”
"Really?!" Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said to Wan'er and Xia Xue. "Okay, let's go, let's go see Uncle Qin immediately." (To be continued......)
