Chapter 14: The Middle Stage of the Xuan Rank

Flying in the air is something that can only be done by the master of the sky, no matter how strong the internal force of a martial artist is, it can only help it jump higher and farther, and can not stay in the air for a long time, after all, the internal force has been integrated with itself, and the use of internal force to fly is like pushing a boat on a boat, no matter how much strength is useless, and only by controlling the vitality of heaven and earth like a master of the sky, with the help of external force can it stay in the air for a long time.

It was the first time for Su Huai to fly in the air, and when he was looking around, the big-eyed monk said to Su Huai with his hands folded, "Little monk Faxiang, may I ask Master Su, Lin Yanbu is what Uncle Zhishan receives."

Su Huai also wanted to ask the big-eyed monk some questions, and when he heard the monk called Faxiang take the initiative to talk, he also hurriedly returned the salute and said, "The next smoke step is the subject of Master Wuwei."

As soon as the Faxiang monk heard Master Wuwei, he immediately became excited, and said, "Master Su Shi knows where Uncle Wuwei is now."

Su Huai listened to the Faxiang monk for a while, and Uncle Zhishan for a while, but Uncle Wuwei was a little confused, so he paused slightly before saying, "Five days ago, Master Wuwei was still in Chaoyang City."

After learning where Master Wuwei went, the Faxiang monk thanked Su Huai, but when he saw Su Huai's puzzled look, he immediately understood and said, " Zhishan, is the name of Uncle Wuwei in Leiyun Temple, but Uncle Zhishan is wild and uninhibited in the temple, often stealing wine and meat outside the temple, so he is at odds with Uncle Zhide of the Discipline Academy, the two often quarrel, Uncle Abbot is merciful, Uncle Zhishan is just a small punishment and a big commandment, but once the robbers under the mountain are rampant, burning and killing and robbing in the town, just Uncle Zhishan went down the mountain, and killed all the robbers in a rage, this matter let Uncle Zhide know that after taking the disciples of the precept room directly tied Uncle Zhishan back to the temple to ask for guilt, Uncle Zhishan defended that he was the anger of the Bodhisattva's heart, and finally the abbot Uncle came forward, and read that there was a reason for not abolishing Uncle Zhishan's cultivation, but expelled him from Leiyun TempleBefore leaving, Uncle Zhide in the precept room gave eight words "lawlessness, inaction", so Uncle Zhishan changed the law name Wuwei after leaving Leiyun Temple.

After listening to the Faxiang monk's story, Su Huai nodded, then looked at the green-haired man and said, "Then this senior is .......?"

The Faxiang monk looked at Su Huai's eyes and looked at the green-haired man, and said with respect: You said that the predecessors of Mushuzi ah, it is Uncle Zhishan out of the Leiyun Temple after getting acquainted, Uncle Zhishan out of the Leiyun Temple after three years of penance in the world, and finally in the country of wood on the Tiantai Mountain and Mushuzi seniors acquainted, at that time Mushuzi predecessors are a hundred years of Bodhi tree, has opened the wisdom of the people, Mushuzi predecessors after a hundred years of wind and rain, read the vicissitudes of the world, Zhishan Uncle after three years of hard work, see through the red dust and mundane things, the two of them on the top of Tiantai Mountain to participate in Zen Taoism and finally enlightened, and after several months of hard work, Mushuzi seniors broke through to the tenth level, incarnate into a human form, Zhishan Uncle broke through the bottleneck, ranked in the sky”。

After listening to the Faxiang monk, Su Huai understood why Master Wuwei asked him to protect the iron bone ginseng, it turned out that the two had such a relationship. Just when Su Huai and the monk of Faxiang talked very happily, the eight-armed demon ape began to land on the ground from the air, this should belong to the center of the dragon forest, the open space within a radius of hundreds of zhang is accompanied by mountains and water, the surrounding trees are lush, there is a grass house near the lake, after the eight-armed demon ape landed, Mu Xuzi jumped down and walked towards the grass house first, the child with green leaves on his head followed, Su Huai and Fa Xiang also followed, although the grass house is small, there are all kinds of everything inside, the house is cleaned and tidy, and there are a few fresh fruits on the table, it seems that someone with a heart deliberately did it, the eight-armed demon ape lazily lay outside the grass house, and the iron bone staff rode on the neck of the eight-armed demon ape to play, it doesn't look like it has any intention of coming in at all.

After Mu Xuzi entered the grass house, he sat down first, and said to Su Huai and Fa Xiang, "You two can sit too."

When Su Huai and Fa Xiang heard this, they found a chair nearby and sat down, only to see Mu Xuzi take out a green bag from his sleeve and hand it to the child with green leaves on his head and said, "Guo'er, go to the lake to get some water."

The child, Guo'er, took the bag and put it down, picked up the teapot on the table and ran towards the door.

Mu Xuzi pointed to a few fruits on the table and said, "I have a lot to do with the old man Wuwei, and you two don't have to be polite to me."

Fa Xiang clasped his hands together and saluted Mu Xuzi but did not make any move, Su Huai had just experienced a big battle, his stomach was already empty, he said thank you to Mu Xuzi and picked up the apple on the table and bit it, Fa Xiang saw Su Huai pick up the apple and bite it down, and wanted to say something to stop it, but he wanted to stop it, Su Huai looked at his appearance, shook the apple in his hand and said, "Is there any problem?"

Fa Xiang looked at Mu Xuzi with unspeakable words, only to hear Mu Xuzi smile faintly and said, "It's okay, it's just that."

Just as Su Huai had eaten most of the apple, he heard an angry voice from the door: "You..... Dare to eat apples", I saw Guo'er holding a pot of boiling water in one hand and pointing at Su Huai with the other, and her already red face turned even redder because of anger.

Su Huai looked a little confused when he looked angry So, what does it mean that you dare to eat apples, and even he can't count the apples he has eaten since he was a child, and now someone tells him that apples can't be eaten, what are you kidding.

Su Huai looked at Guo'er's angry appearance and didn't look like a fake, and looked at Mu Xuzi with some embarrassment and said, "Little brother Guo'er, ..... this?"

Mu Xuzi looked at Su Huai and said helplessly, "The body of this fruit is cultivated by apples, and the apples on this table can barely be regarded as his clansmen."

"Ah, apples, this is really rare," Su Huai exclaimed in surprise, looked at the half apple in his hand, and immediately hid it by his side.

"It's rare, it's a rare occurrence in a hundred years, and it's a coincidence that the fruit can transform into a shape, and now I have followed me for many years, and I haven't met the second apple that cultivates into a human form," Mu Xuzi said meaningfully.

Su Huai looked at Mu Xuzi's meaningful appearance and said, "As far as I know, marriage among the beast clan doesn't seem to care much about their respective races."

"Then it's not an authentic apple" only to hear a hurried voice from the door, Guo'er glared at Su Huai with a pair of angry eyes.

"Okay, okay, it's not that you haven't opened your wisdom yet, it's an unintentional mistake," Mu Xuzi comforted Guo'er.

Guo'er heard Mu Xuzi's words, turned to Mu Xuzi with a red face and said, "That's not necessarily, like our clan, we only sent Hongyuan in the morning, determined to cultivate into positive fruits, and at noon, it became your belly meal, this also calls us how to cultivate, don't you always want to strengthen my Mu clan, you can't just spare him so easily."

Su Huai didn't expect that he would cause so many troubles just by eating an apple, but this fruit's words sounded a little reasonable, and for a while Su Huai didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile dryly and scratch the back of his head and look a little embarrassed.

Mu Xuzi saw that the fruit was a little unrelenting, and Zhengse said, "We'll talk about this later, you can make tea first."

Guo'er didn't say much when she saw Mu Xuzi's serious expression, and began to make tea for the three of them with a pot of boiling water.

Mu Xuzi looked at Su Huai a little embarrassed, and continued to explain, "Although my Mu clan is all over the place, but due to the restrictions of the ontology, before entering the heaven-level transformation, they have to take root in the soil and not leave, although there are many clansmen, but when they encounter danger, they can only face it alone, so I have been looking for people from the Mu tribe like Guo'er and Iron Bone Ginseng, who have been able to get rid of the restrictions of the land since the day of their birth."

After listening to Mu Xuzi's explanation, Su Huai suddenly realized, no wonder Mu Xuzi attached so much importance to Guo'er and Iron Bone Ginseng, it turned out that there was such a reason. Mu Xuzi said that Guo'er had already made the tea in front of the three of them, and saw Mu Xuzi pick up the teacup and take a sip of Fa Xiang and Su Huaicai picked up the teacup, the tea soup smelled fragrant and sweet in the mouth, and the tea only entered the stomach Su Huai felt that his body was tired and completely gone, and even his spirit was full of a lot, and he couldn't help but praise "It's really good tea."

Mu Xuzi heard it and smiled with satisfaction and said, "This tea is made by a senior of my Mu clan, and there are more than 100 pieces every year, so it is named Baiye Ling, I see that your internal breath has reached the peak of the early stage of the Xuan Ji, this tea has the effect of calming the mind and calming the qi, it is better to break through the middle stage of the Xuan level at this opportunity."

Su Huai saw that Mu Xuzi saw his skills clearly, and after the conditioning of this hundred leaf spirit tea, both energy and internal breath were in the best state at this time, and he was not hypocritical immediately, and said thank you to Mu Xuzi, then sat cross-legged on the chair and began to adjust his internal force to impact the middle stage of Xuanji.

Su Huai mobilized the internal force from the dantian to wander around the body, and at the same time continued to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and his own internal force, and returned to the dantian after running for a week, Su Huai sat for five hours, and when Su Huai woke up, the sky was completely dark, and he stretched his waist greatly, feeling the internal force full of his body, Su Huai muttered, "This is the middle stage of the Xuan level."

There were no more Mu Xuzi and Fa Xiang in the grass house, and Su Huai walked out of the grass house only to see the eight-armed demon ape and the iron bone ginseng sleeping together, but there were no other three. The night in the middle of the Monster Forest was extraordinarily quiet, some were just the wheezing sound of the eight-armed demon ape, Su Huai took a deep breath and felt the peaceful atmosphere, the night was full of water and sky, and he found a place to sit down, recalling the dreamlike seven days, from knowing the master of Wuwei to the predecessor of Muxuzi, but he fell asleep unconsciously, and the night was peaceful.

When Su Huai woke up early the next morning, he saw that everyone was gathered in the open space in front of the grass house, Su Huai rubbed his eyes, walked to Mu Xuzi's side, and arched his hand and said, "Mu Xuzi senior."

Mu Xuzi hummed and said to Su Huai and the Faxiang monk, "I still have important things to do, so I won't send you two out, this thing has my breath to help you two get out of the dragon forest safely", saying that Mu Xuzi made a move casually, a leaf flew into his hand, only to see a flash of green light on the leaves, leaving a little breath of Mu Xuzi, and took out a green bag from his sleeve and handed it to Su Huaidao, "This bag of Baiye Spirit Tea will be handed over to Master Wuwei on my behalf."

Mu Xuzi didn't stop much after speaking, and flew on the shoulders of the eight-armed demon ape with Guo'er and Iron Bone Ginseng, and flew in the opposite direction when he came.

Su Huai and the monk Faxiang saluted Muxuzi and said, "Thank you Muxuzi senior."

Seeing Mu Xuzi go away, Su Huai and the two also walked towards the periphery of the Monster Forest, the interior of the Monster Forest is mostly where demon beasts are located, humans rarely enter, and there is no designated road, the two of them wasted a lot of time, and it took nearly half of the night to walk to the periphery of the forest, "Master Faxiang, let's stay here all night tonight, even if you enter the city at this time, I'm afraid you will have to sleep on the streets" Su Huai said.

Fa Xiang looked at the sky and said, "There are indeed many inconveniences in rushing at night, let's be here tonight, I'll go pick up some dry firewood."

When Fa Xiang came with a bundle of dry firewood, he didn't see Su Huai, and when the fire rose, he saw Su Huai carrying a slaughtered hare.

Su Huai came to the fire, picked up a branch on the ground, and roasted the hare on the fire. When Su Huai handed the roasted hare to the Fa Xiang, the Fa Xiang bounced up from the ground as if he had encountered poison, and put his hands together and said, "Sin, sin", followed by a large passage of scripture read out of his mouth.

Su Huai looked at Fa Xiang and jumped up in a panic, and patted his head with his right hand to realize that Fa Xiang was a monk of Leiyun Temple, but because of Master Wuwei, he was confused with the little monk of Fang Yuan, looking at the appearance of the Fa Xiang monk chanting scriptures, Su Huai couldn't help but think of the appearance of Fang Yuan's chicken when he was secretly eating, and secretly muttered, "This Fa Xiang master will not be overtaking this hare."

Su Huai ate up a hare and saw that the Faxiang was still chanting the scriptures, so he didn't bother, found a big tree and fell asleep beautifully. The next morning, after the two woke up, they went towards Jinyang City, and along the way, they didn't meet anyone in the Dragon's Forest, and they didn't even show up to the nearby farmers who were collecting medicine. When you come to Jinyang City, both sides of the street are still very lively, and the shouts are endless, but among the pedestrians on the street, there are many fewer people in the rivers and lakes.

"Master Faxiang, there is a shop not far away, why don't you go with me and rest for a while."

"It's fine," said the prime minister.

After that, the two walked towards the Hengyuan shop, but before they reached the Hengyuan shop, they saw a group of people walking towards Su Huai and the two of them in full armor, the leader was Wen Mantang, and next to him was the gray-clothed man with a thick-backed knife, but now he was wearing a black suit, Wen Mantang was scolding at the man with a thick-backed knife, and the man with a thick-backed knife was looking lazy and lazy with his head down.

Su Huai waved his hand at Wen Mantang and shouted, "Uncle Wen."

As soon as Wen Mantang heard someone call him, he followed the prestige, and saw that the person who called him was Su Huai, and ran to Su Huai in three steps and step by step, staring at Su Huai with a pair of eyes the size of mung beans, and muttering in his mouth, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......

"I told him he'd be fine," said the man with his hands behind his head and his back facing the sky.

Wen Mantang became more and more angry when he saw the man holding the thick-backed knife looking lazy, and said, "Hmph, if something happens to the third young master, I will skin you."

The man with the thick-backed knife put his hands down, looked at Wen Mantang and said, "Uncle, I'm your own nephew, okay."

Su Huai looked at the man holding the thick-backed knife and smiled slightly and said, "Thank you brother for your help that day."

"It's easy to say," said the man with a thick-backed knife, not forgetting to glance at Wen Mantang.

"His name is Lei Zhan, and he is my nephew," Wen Mantang introduced to Su Huai.

Su Huai looked at Lei Zhan and looked at each other, smiled and pointed to the Faxiang and said, "This is the Faxiang Master of the Thundercloud Temple."

Fa said to Wen Mantang with his hands folded and said, "Senior Wen".

Wen Mantang heard that Fa Xiang was from Leiyun Temple, and he didn't trust it, so he hugged Fa Xiang slightly and said, "The master has worked hard all the way." said to Su Huai again, "The third young master is still talking to me when I go back to the store."

After speaking, he led the group towards the Hengyuan shop, and when they arrived at the Hengyuan shop, Wen Mantang, Su Huai, Fa Xiang, and Lei Zhan walked into the inner room, and the others performed their duties. After sitting down, Wen Mantang asked, "Listen to Lei Zhan, the one who took you away that day was a heaven-level master, and this matter can be taken seriously."

Su Huai said, "But he is a heaven-level master."

After hearing this, Wen Mantang patted his thigh and said, "There are so many masters in the world, there are more than 20 masters of the heavens, how can you let you run into it."

Listening to his tone, he is still a little angry. It turned out that when Lei Zhan came back yesterday, he told Wen Mantang that Su Huai was rescued by a heaven-level master, so he came back first to report it, Wen Mantang heard that Su Huai was rescued by a heaven-level master, and he was still a little suspicious, until today he saw that there were fewer pedestrians on the street, especially in the rivers and lakes, and there were many fewer people in the rivers and lakes. Remnant, for a while, people were panicked, those who came for the iron bone ginseng all withdrew from the Dragon's Forest, even far away from Jinyang City, Wen Mantang heard this scene, I don't know why he thought of the heaven-level powerhouse who rescued Su Huai, and after further confirming to Lei Zhan, he realized that it was the same person who took Su Huai and injured everyone, and immediately frightened, and organized all the people in Hengyuan Store to go to find Su Huai, but they met Su Huai soon after going out, which was considered to be in danger.

Su Huai heard the blame in Wen Mantang's mouth, and explained, "The predecessor of Muxuzi is not embarrassed by me, and my cultivation can be promoted to the middle stage of the Xuanji thanks to his guidance."

Wen Mantang listened to Su Huai's claim that his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Xuan Ji, his face was full of disbelief, in Wen Mantang's impression, Su Huai could not practice martial arts, a few days ago Su Huai escaped from his hands, Wen Mantang only thought that Su Huai had an adventure, at most it was a late yellow level, but he never thought that Su Huai was already in the middle of the Xuan level, and the eighteen-year-old middle stage of the Xuan level was also a genius in the entire Yan Kingdom, Wen Mantang looked at Su Huai and smiled from ear to ear, and said, "Then the old man knows that the cultivation of the third prince is so diligent."

"Father, he doesn't know yet," Su Huai said.

Wen Mantang heard Su Huai's answer, and his original idea of sending Su Huai to Chaoyang City tomorrow had changed, and he sat on the chair and thought about it again and again and asked, "That son still has something to do in Jinyang City, and the old man will send someone to do it."

Su Huai also understood what Wen Mantang meant when he heard Wen Mantang say this, and said, "There is nothing else."

Wen Mantang patted his thigh and said, "The son will rest for a while, the old man will go to prepare, and the old man will accompany the son to Chaoyang City after an hour."

Su Huai came to find Wen Mantang this time because he wanted to go back to Chaoyang City, and now that Wen Mantang is ready, he is also happy, and said to Wen Mantang, "There is Uncle Lao Wen."

Wen Mantang heard that Su Huai agreed to set off immediately, so he didn't delay any longer, got up and prepared the luggage carriage. An hour later, at the door of Hengyuan's shop, Su Huai said, "Master Faxiang might as well go to Chaoyang City with us, maybe you can meet Master Wuwei."

Seeing that Su Huai said sincerely, he clasped his hands together and said, "The little monk went out this time, and the agreed time with the master was five days later, and Chaoyang City would not be able to go, so please ask Su Shi to say hello to Uncle Zhishan on behalf of the little monk."

"Master Faxiang, don't worry, these words will definitely be brought" Su Huai said and hugged his fist towards Faxiang and said "farewell".

After speaking, he and Wen Mantang and Lei Zhan went towards the outside of Jinyang City, and the three of them quickly whipped their horses until noon on the third day, and they could vaguely see Chaoyang City.
