Accompanied by a group of people, Tianci immediately came to the backyard. I saw that there was a cliff in front of me, towering into the clouds, not reaching the top, and at a height of dozens of zhang above the ground, there was a clear spring flowing straight down. You can see that the spring water is gushing out of a spring that is less than the size of a pot halfway up the mountain.

"The master's edict was placed in the spring above, and I have seen it in the form of a bird, and there is a stone box half a foot square that is placed in the spring more than an arm's length away, and I don't know how the master put it in it. Chixia pointed to the spring above.

Chixia continued: "We have tried all kinds of methods to obtain the stone box in this spring, and we are also very troubled by this. ”

"For this reason, I have practiced light skills and climbing kung fu, and now I can climb to the place not far from the spring with my bare hands. Yoko said with some smugness.

"Not far, at least a dozen feet. Chixia said sarcastically.

Tianci looked up at the high spring, the cliff where it was located, the surrounding rocks were flat and smooth, almost seamless and climbable, and under the spring, it was extremely slippery, and it was almost impossible to climb to the spring with bare hands with human power.

Zuo Dian said at this time: "Even if you can reach the spring, you can't get the stone box from it." ”

"Senior Brother Ye made a ladder out of long bamboo, and we once climbed this ladder to get close to the mouth of the spring. He added.

Tianci asked: "Didn't the master explain that you can't borrow foreign things and take them?"

Ye Chengshi scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "What I understand is that the master said that you can't borrow foreign objects and take them, and we just use foreign objects to get close to it, and it doesn't seem to go against the teacher's will." ”

"Yes, after Senior Brother Ye and I went up, we found that even when we reached the mouth of the spring, our arms couldn't reach the box, which was nearly three feet deep into the hole and stuck in a rock crevice, even with the help of foreign objects, it was difficult to take it out," Zuo Dian said.

"It seems that Master Cheng wants to embarrass us, and he doesn't want us to really look for him. Yoko said with a sigh.

Everyone talked about it in front of the flying spring, and they didn't have a clue, so they had to go home in a huff.

The next day, after Tianci exchanged skills with all the masters and apprentices, he came to the backyard cliff alone, looking at the flying spring and thinking bitterly.

He remembered that when he and Yangzi carried water here, they often played with each other under the flying spring, and there were two small springs on the cliff behind the Feiquan Waterfall, one was only the size of a palm, less than five feet high from the ground, and the other was the size of a bowl, more than a zhang high from the ground.

Thinking of this, Tianci's eyes suddenly lit up, he hurriedly rushed into the flying spring, came to the cliff and stood still, looked up and down the two springs under the cliff, after observing for a while, he came to the smallest spring, stretched out his palm forward to seal the whole spring, when the small spring only a small amount of water flowed out of his fingers, he looked up at the higher spring, it was obvious that the water flow of the spring was a little larger than just now, indicating that the two springs were connected.

Thinking of this, Tianci immediately sat cross-legged in front of the cliff, closed his eyes and breathed, and luckily dantian, after a while, I saw that he suddenly raised his right hand, turned his fist into a palm, gathered all his strength, and slapped a palm towards the smallest spring.

The palm slapped straight to the spring, the momentum sank, with a gust of wind, hit the mouth of the hole, made a muffled sound, only to see that the spring water all flowed back for a while, but there was not a drop of water flowing out of the spring, at the same time, the slightly higher spring but "whoosh", spewing out a stream of water, straight out of a meter or two away, instantly returned to its original state.

However, the flying fountain from top to bottom has not changed much, and it is still flowing calmly downward.

Tianci tried many times repeatedly, until he was exhausted, and he had no choice but to give up.

When he returned to his bedroom, he pondered again and again, he firmly believed that his idea was right, the three springs must be the same, but why no matter how hard he tried, he could not affect the water potential of the flying spring? Thinking about it, he thought that maybe his own skill was too small, and he could not change the water flow of the flying spring that was dozens of feet high through the small spring under the cliff.

In a daze, Tianci fell asleep on the bed.

In the middle of the night, Tianci suddenly woke up from his dream, turned over from the bed and sat up. "The skill is too small, the skill is too small!" the words lingered in his head.

He immediately got out of bed, opened his package, and found the packet of pills that the Taoist priest Buji had given him. He took out a pill and looked at it in his hand, thinking to himself, didn't the Taoist priest say that this pill can increase internal strength, why don't I give it a try.

He put this pill into his mouth, closed his eyes and swallowed it, and suddenly felt a cool sliding from his throat into his stomach, and after a while, a ball of qi arose in his abdomen, and it turned over the river and the sea, like a fire was ignited, and it burned uncomfortably.

Tianci hurriedly meditated on the ground, intending to adjust his breathing and control the breath in his body, when he suddenly felt the fire in his abdomen rising upward, burning his heart and lungs, and rushing straight to the top of his head, as if the whole person was in the midst of the fire, about to burn the jade.

Suddenly, the five internal organs of the heavens were churning in his body like a pot, and he was so difficult to control for a while, he opened his mouth and screamed, and he fainted to the ground.

When he opened his eyes again, there was Chixia in front of him, who was bowing his head and calling for him, and there were Yangzi next to him, Zuo Dian, Ye Chengshi and others were all there, and everyone was looking at him with anxious expressions, it was the next morning.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" Yangzi asked with concern when she saw Tianci open her eyes. Although he was two years older than Tianci, he later apprenticed, so he called Tianci his senior brother.

Tianci opened his eyes and looked at everyone, but he didn't know what to do, but he felt much better, he gently supported the ground with his left hand, and the whole person immediately jumped up from the ground.

He didn't hold it tight, pushed Chixia and Yangzi next to him, and sat on the ground. looked at him puzzled, thinking, how could he suddenly be as strong as an ox when he was weak and unconscious just now.

Tianci is also very strange, suddenly felt that his body was as light as a swallow, took two steps, and felt that his steps were solid and powerful, and when he tried to hold his breath and adjust his qi, he immediately felt that his dantian was full, and his qi was like a torrent, churning in his body. I thought to myself, this pill is really wonderful.

Tianci turned to everyone at this time and said, "I'm fine, don't worry, come with me." He walked out to the door.

Everyone followed Tianci with a full stomach and came to the cliff in the backyard together, a few zhang away from the flying spring, Tianci stopped, pedaled the horse, hugged his hands, and luckily dantian.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what the heavens wanted.

In a moment, Dan Tianci stood up, jerked his feet forward, jumped up in front of the flying spring, and flew into the waterfall.

I saw that Tianci was in the middle of the flying spring in the air, waved his right palm, and slapped directly at the spring in the middle of the cliff, the power of this palm was so great, with the whistling wind, wrapped in the water flow of the flying spring, and went straight to the spring.

Hearing a loud bang, Tianci's palm slapped heavily on the spring in the middle, and suddenly the water flow of the flying spring above suddenly spurted out from the spring as if it had opened a floodgate, and the water from the small spring below also shot out several feet away.

Everyone was stunned by the movement in front of them, and they never thought that Tianci would have such divine power, and they all stood in place with their mouths open, and they didn't feel like they were drenched by the flying water.

The spring water that spewed out was about to fly out with the stone box, but it was Yoko who reacted first, and he rose to his feet, picked up the stone box in mid-air, and held it high towards the godsend.

Everyone opened the stone box and saw that there was a square scarf inside, with five big characters on it: Youjing Tianshi Cave.
