011, the worries of the mountain god (I)
If Li Qingshui back then secretly sensed or tested the operation of the tiger baby's aura, he would be able to know what his situation was at the moment. But now Li Qingshui can only silently watch all this, what he sees in the Yuan Shen is not much different from the observation of ordinary people, and all the conclusions are judged based on his experience, and they cannot be determined.
After being surprised, Li Qingshui felt deeply worried again, he was worried about the tiger baby. Some people may think it is strange, why is this great master not surprised? The reason is precisely because the tiger baby is so young and has no one to guide her. If Li Qingshui's judgment is correct, the tiger baby has already completed the ninth transformation of the first realm, and if he continues to enter the second realm to cultivate at this time, it will be harmful to him!
In the intuitive concept of ordinary people, the main thing to cultivate when entering the initial realm is perception, and the process of a child coming into the world and gradually growing up is the physiological process of complete development of various sensory organs such as eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin. It is precisely because of perception that we have an understanding of the world, and then we learn how to survive in the world and pursue our own life.
At the age of the tiger baby, it is accompanied by the complete development of various perceptions, and its ears and eyes are especially better than those of adults, so there is no problem in cultivating the initial realm in theory. However, the cultivation in the two realms is mainly muscles and bones, which not only look healthier, stronger, and more powerful on the surface, but also contain inner refinement, so that they can reach a perfect state.
However, the body bones of the tiger baby have not yet grown, and if this kind of cultivation is carried out too early, it may leave defects or even disabilities. For example, if the body bones are solidified too early, they may become dwarfs in adulthood, and for example, the soft organs cannot withstand such exercise, which will leave lifelong hidden dangers and dark wounds.
Li Qingshui had never encountered such a thing before, a five-year-old child had already achieved the first nine transformations, who could teach him? But as the top great master in the world, he could deduce this result from the principle of cultivation, so he was secretly worried, but he couldn't remind anyone.
Some people may think that being able to enter the initial realm so early may be called an unprecedented peerless genius boy! But Li Shimizu does not think so, most of the masters he knows have entered the initial realm around the age of 20, and as for whether it is a few years earlier or a few years later, it will have no impact on future achievements.
Time has different concepts for different people. For ordinary people, although two-year-old children are twice as old as one-year-old children, they are the same age when they reach adulthood, but the difference between a forty-year-old and a twenty-year-old is a generation, but if they can live more than 100 years, there is not much difference.
And a master like Li Qingshui, who has a long lifespan, he is already more than three hundred years old, even if he is now severely injured and imprisoned on the tree mound, he can still hold on for another hundred years. For such people, the achievements they have achieved are cultivated over a long period of time, and it makes no difference whether they entered the initial realm at the age of fifteen or when they entered the initial realm at the age of twenty.
However, at the beginning of ordinary people's cultivation, they are still particular, for example, they have reached the prime of life at the age of 30, they have experienced too much in life, their state of mind has long been lost, and their character and concepts about various things have been formed. If you are not able to cross the initial state by this time, then the chances of being able to cross the initial state in this life are very small, unless there is a special change of chance.
On the other hand, even if you enter the initial realm and cultivate very early, it doesn't mean that you can break through to a higher realm. Only by breaking through the Six Realms can he be called a true master of the world and can leave a complete inheritance guide. This is a goal that most monks cannot achieve in their lifetime, and if they have not yet entered the Six Realms when their vitality cannot continue to maintain their peak state, then the hope of this life is extremely slim.
Therefore, it is better for people to enter the first realm when they are teenagers, otherwise there is very little hope, and if they do not enter the six realms when their physical condition remains at their peak, then it means that there is no hope for life. In addition, it doesn't matter what age or stage of cultivation you have, and there is no reason why you are a genius if you enter the country earlier. And the situation of the tiger baby was an accident, or it was purely an accident, and even Li Qingshui couldn't figure out what was going on.
Just like Pan Gu doesn't know what Li Qing Shui expects from it, of course, Huwa doesn't know Li Qing Shui's worries about him, and he still lives happily in the village. The childhood spent in the primitive tribe was very simple, there were almost no toys, but almost everything was a child's toy. Tiger Baby has a hobby, which is to go to the stream to pick stones—stones that look like eggs.
Outside the village, there is a stream formed by the confluence of mountain springs, which forms many large and small pools in the mountains, and flows all the way to the edge of the cliff and turns into a waterfall. During the rainstorm season, the mountains are very dangerous when torrents pour down from high places, rolling rocks fly on the steep slopes, and thick trees are broken or uprooted and rushed down the river.
There are many pebbles and stones washed down from the mountains by the stream, and on a clear day, the tiger baby will sneak out of the village to pick up stones. As long as he didn't cross the stream into the mountains, the area around the village was relatively safe, and the adults couldn't keep an eye on it all the time. And Pan Gu always follows the tiger baby with his tail wagging his tail, like a heel worm, with this guardian beast by his side, he will not be in any unexpected danger.
Patriarch Ruoshan probably couldn't have imagined that a "metaphor" at the beginning would develop this hobby of tiger babies. The tiger baby rummaged among the rubble, and every time she found a stone that looked like an egg, she would cheer and rejoice. Pan Gu will also use the dog's paws to help pull the gravel, and then pick up the pebbles that look similar to the tiger baby and run to the tiger baby to offer treasure. The tiger baby is very demanding, only stones that are almost exactly the shape of an egg will be picked up, and sometimes he can't find a single piece for most of the day, but he still has a good time.
Although such stones are rare, the tiger baby will look for them every once in a while, and after a long time, he has also saved a bunch in his hut. Some people who occasionally saw it in front of the door would be surprised and exclaimed, "Where did you get so many eggs? Did you pick all the eggs laid by the chickens here? Put them back in the egg basket!"
The tiger baby had to explain every time that these were not eggs, but stones that looked like eggs, and the tribesmen came in and touched them only to find that they were really stones. Later, everyone was not surprised.
On this day, Huwa and Pan Gu ran to the side of the stream to pick up stones, and for them, it was a pleasure to keep discovering. It was a cloudy day, and the clouds that had been covering the sky all morning finally lifted, the sun fell, and a rainbow rose over the cliff waterfall, followed by a cloud of mist.
Pan Gu suddenly straightened up and barked several times towards the mist, it was not a supernatural roar or an ordinary dog barking, and the tiger baby also stood up and looked into the distance, he heard footsteps from the other end of the cliff. If someone sees this scene, they may be puzzled, this person and a dog are still some distance away from the cliff, and there is a sound of water around them, and the person who comes is far away at the other end of the cliff, they can actually hear it!
The people on the other side of the cliff also heard the dog barking, and the people from Youlu Village on this side of Zhilu Road opened their voices and shouted: "I'm from Huahai Village, I'm here to exchange swan eggs for eggs! I also brought two fresh wild boar legs, can you change some water cloth?"
On the other side of the cliff, go further into the mountains, and there is Huahai Village. If you count the distance in a straight line, Huahai Village is the closest village to Lu Village, and various things are often exchanged between the two clans. However, due to a long deep ravine that divides the valley, it is difficult for the two clans to meet and shake hands, and they have to walk down the mountain for almost a whole day to reach the original Qingshui clan walled city to meet, and the road is very difficult.
But the tribesmen also have their own way, and people can throw things over if they can't get by. They made something like a stone thrower out of bamboo, negotiated the items to be exchanged, and then threw them in sacks. The location of the projectile is not in the narrowest part of the valley, but a relatively gentle and open place near the waterfall, the distance is about a dozen zhang away, and if you shout loudly, both sides can hear it clearly.
The exchange behavior is generally initiated by the people of Huahai Village, because the cliff is at the end of the flat land outside the entrance of the Lu Village, and there are often Lu Village people drying various products on the flat land, and it is very convenient to come and shout on a sunny day. Huahai is a lake in the deep mountains, there are large alpine reeds growing in the shallows on the shore of the lake, and many swans fly to lay eggs every year, so the people of Huahai Village often go to the lake beach to pick swan eggs, which is also their specialty.
Swan eggs are much larger than eggs, but eggs are more delicious and more expensive, so the exchange conditions between the two sides are one swan egg for two eggs, and the people of Lu Village do not suffer. The eggs used for exchange are all cooked, otherwise even if they are wrapped in hemp and thrown over, they will all be broken if they fall there.
Today, another person from Huahai Village came to exchange, and he wanted to exchange fifteen swan eggs for thirty eggs, and he also brought two fresh wild boar legs. When the people of Lu Village heard the news, they rushed to the edge of the cliff and shouted in the air, discussed a few words briefly, and agreed to give him a few more feet of water cloth.
The ruler is a unit of length, about the same distance as an adult from the wrist to the elbow, and the human forearm has a bone from the wrist to the elbow called the ulna. The earliest ruler was also made of bone carved with markings, and it is believed that the Shimizu clan brought the "ruler" into the mountains, and later it became a common unit of measurement used by all tribes.
After discussing, the people of Lu Village lit a fire in the open space and cooked thirty eggs, and the people of Huahai Village were waiting there, and there was nothing else urgent anyway. After the eggs were boiled, they were thrown with a bamboo pole in a sack, and the sound of the sack falling on the ground could be heard on the side of the fog.
Then the people of Lu Village waited here for another sack to be thrown over, but there was no movement for a long time. What's the matter with the other party, are your hands and feet so stupid, and they haven't been done well for so long? At this time, Pan Gu suddenly barked at the side of the cliff, and the tiger baby also shouted: "That person is gone, he forgot to give us things! He was still laughing when he left......
