Chapter 8: First Experience
Inside the wooden barrel, Mo Qingchu carefully felt the changes in himself.
It's also strange to say, don't look at the water vapor all the time, but the water temperature doesn't feel particularly high, and it's warm and comfortable to soak in.
This made him lean back comfortably, his whole back resting on the bucket.
"You don't look nervous at all." Shen Yu looked at him and couldn't help but say.
"I've always wanted to practice, and now I'm about to get my wish done, so why should I be nervous?" Mo Qingchu is very natural and authentic.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt an itch in his body, and it was itchy everywhere in his body.
This itchy sensation is unpleasant. Have you ever tried the feeling of a brush gently slicing over your skin?
At the back, it's a bit like someone approaching your skin and gently exhaling through your skin with their own snort.
These feelings made Mo Qingchu's expression change slightly.
"Well, it's starting to hurt." Shen Yu stood aside and felt very interesting: "This is just the beginning, it will hurt you later." ”
"I don't hurt ............. Well...... Just a little itchy....... huh! He let out a downward-pitched muffled grunt.
Shen Yu listened, and only felt that this young man was trying to save face and was holding on.
However, in the back, Mo Qingchu did feel a slight pain, but everything was within an acceptable range.
At this moment, Shen Yu reacted: "You really don't feel pain?" ”
"Well, totally bearable." Mo Qingchu said directly.
"Why!" Shen Yu recalled that unbearable experience, and couldn't help shouting in his heart.
"Obviously, the senior brothers and sisters in the door are also very painful!"
"Every time everyone talks about medicinal baths, they feel more painful than anyone else!"
Her psyche was extremely unbalanced all of a sudden.
"How is he still comfortable enough to squint? It's too much! ”
"No, no one cares?"
Shen Yu circled around the wooden barrel, carefully looking at the young man and the medicinal liquid in the wooden barrel, and saw that Mo Qingchu was a little embarrassed.
Although the liquid was as black as ink, he still instinctively clamped his thighs and lifted his buttocks slightly.
"It doesn't make sense." Shen Yu couldn't help but say.
During the medicinal bath, it is common knowledge that the pain will be unbearable in the early stage.
"Unless he's inherently problematic with his pain, or ....... he's the rumored quirk." Shen Yu came to a conclusion in his mind.
She heard Senior Sister Feng say that there is a kind of person in the world, the more painful it is, the more excited it is.
If a normal person is choked, it must be uncomfortable.
But that kind of person will have comfortable pupils dilated, eyes rolled upward, and then involuntarily stick out their tongues.
Even if you are whipped, you will feel very comfortable.
According to Senior Sister Feng's description: "There are many kinds of [price] of cultivation that are related to pain, and this kind of person who enjoys pain is simply a natural embryo of cultivation!" ”
The round-faced girl looked at Mo Qingchu, revealing an expression with all her facial features twisted together, a bit like a cute version of the classic emoji: the old man in the subway looks at his phone.
This made the boy in the barrel a little puzzled.
Time went back a quarter of an hour, and at this moment, the pain really intensified, but it only intensified.
He could vaguely guess that his situation didn't seem to be in line with common sense, otherwise this Shen Yu wouldn't be so surprised.
"The medicinal powder she brewed for me shouldn't be inferior, right?"
"Does this thing have an expiration date?" Mo Qingchu said in his heart.
If there is any problem with this, is it yours or mine?
……..
……..
Half an hour flew by.
Shen Yu glanced at the black liquid in the barrel and bowed slightly.
"It's a little lighter, and it looks like you're absorbing it well." The girl said.
"Is the degree of absorption of a medicinal bath distinguished by color?" Mo Qingchu asked.
"Yes, the liquid is as black as ink at the beginning, and when it comes to the back, the lighter the color, the better it is absorbed." Shen Yu explained.
After speaking, she waved her hand, signaled Mo Qingchu not to think too much, and said, "It's been half an hour, and the pain in the early stage of the medicinal bath, you can be regarded as boiling ....... cough, and you can be regarded as over." ”
"Next, you must remember what I just said."
"No matter what you see, hear, smell, touch....... no matter how weird, you must remember - fake, it's fake!" Shen Yu said.
"You're going to be in a very psychedelic state, but don't be too scared!"
"Fear will greatly affect your absorption in this medicinal bath."
Since the [Medicine King] Li Tianshu created the method of medicinal bath and opened the path of human body cultivation, every cultivator has to go through such a stage.
Even high-level cultivators can't rely on the secret method to forcibly change the [Medicinal Bath: First Experience] this time.
However, the whole process is not completely inaccessible.
For example, Shen Yu is now using the simplest method.
"When you feel something is wrong, you tell me everything. Whatever you see or hear....... you say. ”
"I'll give you confirmation on the side and tell you if it's true or not."
"You just have to trust me."
"Believe me, if you can successfully complete the three medicinal baths, I will be your senior sister in the outer gate of the [Mo Sect], and I will not harm you." Shen Yu said.
It stands to reason that this kind of link is best handled by the person most trusted by the medicated bather, such as Mo Qingchu's younger brother Mo Shuli.
But the boy was blind.
Moreover, according to the unwritten rules of the cultivation world, it is best not to have ordinary people watching the whole process.
Wait a minute, if Mo Qingchu can't tell what is true and what is false, like a madman, it is easy to leave a psychological shadow on others.
"I'm so cute, I'm harmless to people and animals, he must trust me." Shen Yu is very confident in himself.
The boy in the barrel raised his head, glanced at the obviously childish and inexperienced girl in front of him, and nodded with difficulty.
With this condition, can we still pick or drop?
As time passed, Mo Qingchu began to feel his temples swell faintly.
This feeling is very familiar, like the symptoms of a previous life after staying up all night on Earth.
After crossing into the earthly realm, his routine is very good, and on Earth, he is the typical kind of "can't sleep" and "can't sleep enough".
Two things that seem to be very contradictory can exist in him at the same time.
After a while, he began to feel a headache, a tingling sensation.
This feeling of splitting headache continues to intensify.
"It feels like my head is going to explode." Mo Qingchu said in his heart.
This reminded him of his previous life playing extreme sports on Earth, and when he was doing [wingsuit flight], he had an accident and landed on his head.
As a person who has really had a headshot, I think this level of "about to explode" is quite acceptable.
Shen Yu half-squatted in front of the barrel, the wall of which covered half of her face.
"Did you see anything?" She grabbed the wall of the barrel with both hands and said in a half-crouched position.
The vast majority of people, when taking a medicinal bath, have visual problems, and will see a lot of messy things, which is extremely weird.
Only a small number of people have problems with hearing, smell, touch, etc.
"Nothing special." Mo Qingchu said: "There is no difference from before. ”
Yes, no different from what he had before.
It was as if he could still faintly see the pink lines on the back of Shen Yu's neck from the side, flashing with an extremely dim pink glow.
It's just that the "normal world" in his eyes is different from ordinary people.
He has long been accustomed to how to distinguish between "true" and "fake", and used to his unreliable eyes.
"What about the others?" Shen Yu said with concern.
"That's it...... There is a little itch on the forehead. Mo Qingchu said.
This position was the place where his body was touched by the black mist when he slaughtered the village.
"It's okay, your forehead is normal, trust me!" Shen Yu is sonorous and powerful.
But after a while, she who had been half-squatting in front of the barrel, and her whole person flicked back violently, and her buttocks landed directly on the ground, causing the buttocks in her pants to shake slightly.
Shen Yu showed endless panic on his face, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.
Her startled appearance frightened Mo Qingchu instead.
"What, what's wrong?" His nerves tensed.
