Book 1 Beginning to Chapter 10 Enlightenment
"Cultivation begins with the cultivation of the mind."
The words of the village chief were imprinted in Li Qingshan's mind, and for three days, he had been practicing the breathing method with the fat tiger Jiang Shixing and several people in the ancestral ancestral hall, and realized the changes in the body between breathing and absorbing qi.
"Ahem!"
Holding his breath, Li Qingshan coughed violently, the feeling of suffocation reminded him of the feeling after falling into the water, his body trembled, his eyes were cracked, the green tendons between his foreheads were bulging, and he was shrouded in the breath of death, which was really uncomfortable.
"Still can't calm down......"
Li Qingshan shook his head, on both sides of his side, Fat Tiger and Jiang Shixing breathed long and steady, and gradually realized the true meaning, he had too many distracting thoughts, and he couldn't be as pure as them, so he slowly got up and walked out of the door.
"That's the kid......"
Under the old locust tree, the village chief Li Fengxian sat opposite another old man, the two raised their glasses and drank each other, and saw Li Qingshan walking out of the ancestral hall, and the old man in Xuanfu carried the pot to fill the cup, waved his sleeves lightly, and asked casually.
The village chief nodded slightly, took the wine cup and drank it all, and then said: "Good character, with adventures." ”
While the two were talking, Li Qingshan wandered around the village aimlessly, feeling impetuous. People who have experienced a fast-paced life, want to really calm down, but it is a very difficult thing, every time you close your eyes, want to calm down, all kinds of past events will be noisy in your mind, relatives, friends voices echo in the ears, urging yourself why not go home.
"Why do you look so preoccupied?" The old man in Xuanfu stared at Li Qingshan for a while, and when he saw that his eyes were blank, and he was wandering around the village with his mind full of thoughts, he couldn't help asking.
The village chief sitting opposite, drinking the elixir by himself, noticed Li Qingshan's condition a few days ago, picked up the wine jug and continued to fill it, it was already empty, shook it twice, put it aside boringly and said: "All living beings, all enlightened people, will be affected by the seven emotions and six desires, once the obsession is formed, others can not persuade it, and can only enlighten themselves." ”
Seeing that his old friend was so shameless, the old man in Xuanfu glared dryly, and reluctantly took out a pot from his robe and put it on the stone table, and after pouring it full, he moved the wine jug slightly to his side.
Li Fengxian ignored the movements of the old man in Xuanfu, and looked at Li Qingshan's side with interest. I saw a little girl, three or four years old, pink, cute, with jerky in her hand, jumping up and down behind him, with pigtails on her head, swaying up and down with a shudder.
"Brother Qingshan, what are you doing here?" The little girl's immature voice sounded behind Li Qingshan, her little fingers gently poked his waist, the dried meat grinded in his mouth, saliva flowed to his hands, her big eyes flashed, her head tilted, and she looked at him curiously.
"I don't know...... What am I doing......"
Li Qingshan said something very middle two inexplicably, looked down and saw this cute little girl, his mind instantly returned, and he leaned down and said, "Brother is thinking, how can I eat the jerky in Xiao Xiuxiu's hand." ”
"Na!"
Xiao Xiuxiu did not hesitate, as soon as Li Qingshan finished speaking, he immediately took the jerky out of his mouth, raised his little hand and handed it to him.
"My brother is laughing...... Just had a full meal. Li Qingshan pursed his lips, patted his stomach and said, proving that he definitely did not dislike the saliva on the jerky.
"Then tell me when you're hungry." Xiao Xiuxiu put the jerky back in her mouth, crunched and said with a serious face.
"Good!" Looking at Xiao Xiuxiu's sincere eyes, Li Qingshan also responded seriously.
The innocence of the young child made Li Qingshan forget the troubles in his heart for a while, and the two walked slowly in the village holding hands, and they would greet the busy villagers warmly. There are potholes on the road, Xiao Xiuxiu will jump over, and then let Li Qingshan do the same, and the two old men under the old locust tree also smiled when they saw this warm picture.
"Brother Qingshan, are you missing your family?" Xiao Xiuxiu was tired of playing, sitting on the stone pier with her legs shaking, looking at Li Qingshan with clear eyes and asking.
"yes, I miss my family." Li Qingshan smiled wryly, wondering how they were doing now.
"Dad is not in good health, and he always likes to drink."
"Alas...... Mom definitely couldn't persuade him again, so he straightened up for a lifetime, and the old couple lived like this for a lifetime. ”
"Mengmeng won't lock herself in the room again......" Li Qingshan's eyes were moist, and he said a lot unconsciously, shrugged his nose, a little embarrassed, and didn't know when he became sentimental.
"Xiuxiu also misses Daddy......"
Affected by Li Qingshan's emotions, Xiao Xiuxiu lost her previous liveliness, lowered her head, and said in a low voice.
Li Qingshan was stunned, yesterday I heard Jiang Shixing and Fat Tiger mention that before he came here, the last time he went into the mountains to hunt the team encountered a tide of beasts, it was the big murderer who woke up and patrolled the territory, the beasts fled in a panic, trampled, and crashed into the air, and many people in the village were killed, including Xiao Xiuxiu's father.
"Grandma said that Daddy went to a far away place and it would take a long time to come back...... But I know, Daddy can't come back. Xiao Xiuxiu's voice was even quieter, her cheeks bulging, and tears had already covered her cheeks, dripping down her jaw and falling on the corners of her clothes.
Li Qingshan was silent, rubbed Xiao Xiuxiu's hair, and sat down against the stone pier, not knowing how to persuade for a while.
"Child, come to ......" The village chief came at some point, picked up Xiao Xiuxiu distressedly, wrapped his sleeves in his hands, and gently wiped his tears for him.
"Grandpa the village chief, Xiuxiu won't cry, A-Niang will be sad when she sees it." As she spoke, Xiao Xiuxiu didn't care about the jerky that fell to the ground, and her hands touched her tears indiscriminately.
"Alas......" Looking at this sensible little girl, the village chief couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing Xiao Xiuxiu's words, Li Qingshan's heart was touched, since he came to this world, his mood has been chaotic, he wants to succeed too much, he has no patience, he seems to be calm, but in fact, he has been chaotic.
"Xiao Xiuxiu, you are stronger than your brother." Li Qingshan said very sincerely, a three- or four-year-old girl can think about her family, but she still sighs to herself, which is really ridiculous.
"Living at the foot of Tianmai Mountain, people will die every day, either fighting between villages, or dying tragically in the mountains, becoming the blood food of those fierce birds and beasts, children, you should understand your own heart, do not sink. Otherwise, this Jiulao Village is the place where you will die. Seeing Li Qingshan's demeanor change, the village chief was also relieved in his heart, and opened his mouth to teach.
"Thanks to my grandfather's teachings, I have found my heart." Li Qingshan's eyes were firm, and he bowed and thanked the village chief, such an old man deserves anyone's respect in his heart.
"Brother Qingshan, you have to work hard." Xiao Xiuxiu clenched her little hands and cheered for Li Qingshan.
"Good!" Seeing that Xiao Xiuxiu's mood had improved, Li Qingshan smiled and also raised his fist in response.
……
"Old fellow, do you like this kid very much?" Looking at Li Qingshan's back, the old man in Xuanfu said to the village chief.
"The group of bald donkeys in the Miluo Ancient Domain often talk about the fate law, this child is from a foreign land, and he is from the same clan as the old man, so it is fate." The village chief could not deny it.
