Volume 1 The Elephant of the Circle of Heaven and Earth Chapter 8 The Blessed Land of Darkness and Sweetness
When the sky was bright, Liang Cheng restrained his breath and gradually retreated from the state of forgetting things and me. I just feel refreshed, and my body is indescribably comfortable, and even my mind feels more flexible.
was pondering whether he should go to the master to ask for advice, but he saw Ah Shen running in from outside the garden in a hurry, and when he saw Liang Cheng from a distance, he said loudly: "Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng, the master is coming back." ”
"Oh," Liang Cheng was also a little happy, and asked, "When did you get the news, when will Uncle Shi come back?" Ah Shen replied: "Just the thousand-mile transmission note I received from the master, saying that I have arrived at Wusheng Pass, and I was supposed to come back today, but there is something to delay for a few days, and I also ordered some things for me to prepare in advance." ”
This thousand-mile transmission note is a kind of note used for sound transmission, which can transmit the words to be said over a long distance. Liang Cheng had seen it with his master a few times, and he was surprised when he saw it for the first time, but now he is not surprised.
"Got it, you go and do it, I'm going to the master now. After the order was finished, Liang Cheng left the medicine garden and ran all the way to the Guanli with a brisk walk, and went to meet the master Qingxu Daoist.
When I entered the room, I saw Qingxu with his back to him, looking out the window, as if he was thoughtful. Liang Cheng was about to give a salute, but Qingxu turned around and said, "Mingcheng, you must already know the news that your uncle will come back in a few days." Qingxu said and looked at Liang Cheng, his face showed surprise, without waiting for Liang Cheng to speak, he stretched out his hand to put on Liang Cheng's vein, pondered for a moment, and exclaimed again and again: "I didn't expect it! In just a few months, you have cultivated the Introductory Mind Method to the tenth-level realm, such a speed, it is really unprecedented." ”
"Master, I have really reached the tenth layer realm?" Liang Cheng couldn't believe it. Qingxu said: "Well, it is true that your skills have been perfected and the qi period has been completed, but it is just that the teacher has noticed that your pulse is weak and astringent, and there seems to be a major change in your body." In this way, you don't want to live alone in the medicine garden for the time being, but you can go to the meditation room in the view to rest, there is a great array of demons arranged by the ancestor in the view, which has the effect of warding off evil spirits and subduing demons. ”
After arranging Liang Cheng, Qingxu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he didn't expect this closed disciple to be so talented, and he cultivated the Qi Cultivation Method to the tenth-level realm so quickly, it was simply incredible, and now he can try to build a foundation by consolidating the realm. Thinking back to my time, it took me nine years to start from practicing the primary mental method to reaching the peak of the Qi cultivation period.
That night, Liang Cheng sat in the quiet room, it turned out that this was the place where his father first brought him to rest when he came to the Immeasurable Temple, and more than half a year had passed, but there was no change here, and the painting of the middle-aged Taoist priest on the wall was still elegant and smart.
Liang Cheng loved this painting very much, and sat there to look at it carefully, and was distracted for a while. I couldn't help but think in my heart, thinking that in fact, the life of Qingxiu was very suitable for me, if it weren't for the fact that my parents and relatives were difficult to give up, I would have no attachment to those fame and fortune in the world. I thought of my parents, but a trace of uneasiness flashed in my heart for no reason.
Thinking about the middle of the night, Liang Cheng was a little sleepy. Although he was extremely reluctant and resisted hard, he became groggy, and at this time, a trace of black qi emanated from Liang Cheng's body, circling around his body. Liang Cheng himself didn't know these anomalies, he was already almost asleep, and there was a low noisy roar and some sobbing and whimpering sounds in his ears. Liang Cheng's last trace of lucid consciousness was about to fall asleep, and his mouth was a little bitter, knowing that what was waiting for him must not be a good dream.
Suddenly, Liang Cheng felt a wet thing on his face and made a "snort" sound, and he opened his eyes and saw a little familiar little beast sniffing around his body with his big nose, this blue-gray little thing has round ears, a nose like a pig and an elephant, and the bright little eyes are full of excitement.
What happened to Liang Cheng in surprise, the little beast actually sniffed Liang Cheng vigorously while stammering: "Hmm...... It smells so good, you ...... It smells so good...... Yes. ”
Liang Cheng couldn't help but smell his body, there was a bit of sweat. Thinking that he ran from the medicine garden to Guanli during the day, he was sweating, and he was embarrassed to listen to the evaluation of the little beast's "good fragrance".
"Your ...... It's delicious, you give it to me...... Okay?" the little beast looked up at Liang Cheng and stammered.
"Ahh His head was sweating, and he was a little scared, but looking at this little beast, it didn't look like a man-eating monster.
"No...... It's not about eating you...... Be...... Eat your ....... The little beast was also in a hurry, and it was even more difficult to speak.
Liang Cheng watched the little beast stammering like this, how could it not look like a man-eating beast, and his thoughts of escaping were gradually dispelled.
"Hey, aren't you the little thing in the painting, why did you run out?" Liang Cheng realized that this little beast was the image of the middle-aged Taoist priest in the painting.
"I ...... I ......" The little beast was even more anxious and incoherent, unable to speak for a long time, and suddenly spewed out a cyan flame to surround Liang Cheng.
Liang Cheng was shocked, and suddenly felt that the cyan flames in front of him rippled like water waves, gradually dissipating, and at the same time, the surrounding scenery changed.
Liang Cheng felt that he had arrived in a small valley-like place, surrounded by gurgling water and fragrant fragrance. As far as the eye can see, the surrounding trees are lush and the birds are singing and fragrant. What's even more rare is that the aura here is compelling, and it is really a good place to meditate and practice. Liang Cheng was in good spirits and was about to walk around to see what was going on, when he suddenly saw a short person standing under the shadow of the tree in front of him.
The villain walked over slowly, and it turned out to be a boy in Tsing Yi, who looked about five or six years old, with two pigtails on his head, a big nose, and a pair of shiny little eyes looking at Liang Cheng with a smile.
"Hey, fragrant kid, is it fun here?" the boy asked suddenly.
Liang Cheng looked left and right and saw no one before, and made sure that the boy was talking to him, and immediately felt angry and funny, and said, "You little bit, who is the child?" ”
"Of course you're a child, I'm more than a thousand years old, I'm not old, but I'm still older than you. The boy walked over and sniffed around Liang Cheng as he spoke.
"Oh, you're the little monster who threatened to eat me. Liang Cheng reacted at this time, and was also a little curious, and asked, "Aren't you a stammer?
"Nonsense, who is the little monster? People are divine beasts, gods-beasts, do you understand?" the boy pursed his lips and continued unhappily: "Why am I eating you, people didn't change their human form just now and said that it is difficult for you humans to speak, what's so strange." ”
"Oh, so you don't eat me, so why do you always smell a dish like you're smelling a dish, and keep saying, 'It's so fragrant', look at the way you were hungry just now. ”
The boy laughed, took Liang Cheng's hand and left, and said as he walked: "Come on, this is not the place to talk, I'll tell you slowly when you go to my cave." ”
Don't look at this boy is not big, but his strength is not small, Liang Cheng involuntarily had to follow him to the valley, but fortunately, he didn't take a few steps, and the boy said. Liang Cheng looked up at the cave, only to see two vermilion lacquer gates, covered with thick and shiny copper nails, the left and right two golden gluttonous beast heads each with a thick door knocker, a black background gold plaque, on which are written four big characters "Black Sweet Blessed Land". It looks quite magnificent.
The boy waved his hand, and the door slowly opened, and then made a "please" gesture, and the boy walked in first. Liang Cheng stood at the door and thought about it, feeling that the boy who didn't know whether it was a monster or a divine beast didn't seem to have malicious intent, and even if he had malicious intentions, what could he do?
Entering the hall of the cave, Liang Cheng looked around, the hall was very spacious, there were thirty or forty zhang, the layout inside was very simple, a stone table and several stone benches, the floor was paved with smooth bluestone, and the four walls were inlaid with several crystal clear round stones, emitting a soft light.
What surprised Liang Cheng was that the top of the hall looked at the boundless starry sky, only to see the stars bright, the Big Dipper winding, and the wide Milky Way could not be seen at a glance.
Seeing Liang Cheng's surprised appearance, the boy stood there rubbing his hands and giggled a few times, as if he was a little proud, then scratched his head and said: "I've never been a guest in this cave before, you're the first, and I don't know how to entertain you, don't be polite, just do whatever you want, hehe." ”
Liang Cheng looked at the boy's honest and harmless appearance, and his heart was at ease. So he sat down and said, "You're so nice in this cave, by the way, what kind of place is this? You haven't told me why you brought me here." ”
The boy also sat down, looked sideways for a while, and said, "This is a bit of a long story, where to start? ”
