Seeing the old turtle escape into the lake, Li Qingxuan picked up the big clam shell, and saw that the hour was not early, but he was not in a hurry to practice. He has finished his homework, and although the treasure is good, he can't mess with his mind. Holding the mussel shell in his hand, he went back to the bamboo house.

During this period of time, every five days, the old turtle would come to ask for advice, and they came and went, but they were quite familiar. Among them, he also gave several gifts, except for one of the warm jade Li Qingxuan who kept it, and taught him to take it back, but when he saw that it was indeed sincere, when he explained the essence of Confucianism and Taoism with it, he was also more dedicated.

The old turtle has wisdom, but there is no chance, because of his own appearance, he has never stepped into the world, many human accidents, most of them are at the bottom of the lake to see the boat merchants and fishermen, tourists and passers-by, and they learned it under the influence of their ears and eyes. After a long time, I naturally have some insight.

However, in the end, no one has ever explained to him the principles of heaven and earth summed up by such sages and sages as Li Qingxuan did. After hundreds of years of accumulation, now that I have this opportunity, I have enlightenment, but the harvest is not small. Although there is no Fa-rectification, as time passes, just what Lu Xuan can see, he can also see that the aura of the old turtle is very different.

It was originally a turtle genus, and it was calm and calm, but because it was less than human communication, it seemed a little naïve, but now that it has been taught by Li Qingxuan, it is a bit like a person who has achieved cultivation. In the daily conversation, you can also see some changes.

"Master Li, the old turtle is gone today, but I don't know if I can say goodbye to Master Li. On this day, the old turtle listened to Li Qingxuan's lecture, said goodbye to the past, and suddenly bowed to Li Qingxuan three times. "Old turtle, ...... are you?" Li Qingxuan was a little surprised, not knowing what it meant. "The old turtle has accumulated too much, and the thunder catastrophe is coming, but today I want to say goodbye to Master Li. ”

The old turtle said: "I have to be honored by Master Li will not give up, I am willing to be friends with such a different kind of people, teach me countless truths, the old turtle has no regrets, if you can cross the past this time, come to Li Shi's door to listen to the sermon, if you can't cross, you can only camel Li Shi in the next life and swim the river!"

"Master Li cherishes!" Li Qingxuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know how to reply to it. Then the old turtle said goodbye, and then sank into the water, and the water waves surged, and it was gone. Li Qingxuan sat on the bluestone for a long time, sighed for a long time, and then left.

It is said that after he returned to Suzhou, he basically did not go out to make friends, but these days, he felt the feeling of making friends in the old turtle, and now he is quite sad. Especially the old turtle went to the catastrophe, and I don't know what the result will be......

Standing up, Li Qingxuan was not too immersed in it after all, the old turtle has lived for more than 300 years, and he should be able to see through this catastrophe, it is difficult to seek the way, everyone is like this, he may not have a way out, why lament so. Thinking like this, Li Qingxuan shook his head and turned around.

A few days later, when I saw the sky changing above Taihu Lake, the thunder was rolling, and others only said that the weather had changed, that is, there were those who believed in ghosts and gods, and probably only thought that the river god was angry, and they would not think much about it after all. Li Qingxuan had a guess in his heart, and looked at the thunder in the sky for a while, and he felt a lot of emotion.

The next day, the thunder subsided, and Li Qingxuan came to the bluestone of his previous practice early, but unlike usual, he was unable to settle down at this time. Li Qingxuan knew that his own mind was confused, so he didn't force it, just looked at the lake in front of him, hoping that a huge head would stick out of the water again.

It's a pity that there is still not much movement on this Taihu Lake. Li Qingxuan was in a bad mood, he waited for a day, but he didn't wait for the old turtle. His mood gradually calmed down, and he turned around and walked back towards the bamboo house.

On this day, five days have passed since the thunderstorm, and Li Qingxuan once again came to his own cultivation place and sat on the bluestone. Step by step, finish the day's homework, and he is not in a hurry to leave. It's just that after waiting for a day, the sunset has been seen on the horizon, and I haven't seen the slightest wave, and I sighed in my heart, after all, I didn't wait any longer, and I got up to leave.

At this moment, a handful of black shadows suddenly appeared on the surface of Taihu Lake, and Li Qingxuan was stunned at first, and then happy. "Old turtle!" Li Qingxuan called a few times, and saw the river rolling, and the old turtle's huge head was exposed to the water, but it was full of wounds, which was shocking.

"Master Li, the old turtle almost didn't survive the thunder tribulation, how lucky the old turtle is, he had to meet the guidance of Master Li to survive this tribulation. The old turtle was in a very weak state, and it was a little injured, but it still bowed to Li Qingxuan three times.

"Old turtle, it's good to get through the past, I hope you will practice hard in the future, do more good deeds, and accumulate merits. Li Qingxuan smiled slightly, "Please rest assured, the old turtle remembers your teachings, this is a little bit of the old turtle's heart, and please accept it." The old turtle held a bowl-sized orb with his mouth and handed it to Li Qingxuan.

"Next time I give me a gift, I won't see you again," Li Qingxuan said in a deep voice, although he was a little happy in his heart. "Master Li, the old turtle leads you to the law. This jewel is a koi fish essence inner dan that I got by chance the day before yesterday, and I am here to present it to Master Li. The old turtle said respectfully.

The old turtle was very happy to see Li Qingxuan accept the inner pill, and the old turtle continued: "Master Li, the old turtle was seriously injured in this tragedy, and he needs to sleep for several years. "Old turtle, it doesn't have to be so, I'll treat you as my friend. Li Qingxuan shook his head and said.

"Master Li's great kindness and the old turtle will always remember it, and in the future, Master Li will be sent, and the old turtle will go to the soup and the fire, and he will not hesitate. The old turtle excitedly bowed to Li Qingxuan three more times. "Master Li, the old turtle has returned to the bottom of Taihu Lake to recuperate, and he will come to serve you in the future. ”

"Old turtle, go, go, take care of your injuries. After a few days, Li Qingxuan's life returned to peace, practicing swords and meditating every day, and the days were leisurely and quiet. A few more days. In addition to meditation and practice, these days are sword practice. During this time, Fan Heihu came again and invited him to his home for a meal, Li Qingxuan couldn't shirk it, so he went out and went to the city to buy some things by the way.

After Li Qingxuan returned, he was a little depressed, thinking of the opportunity some time ago, and remembering that day he passed on his master Zhang Laodao, his mood was quite disordered, and it was difficult to meditate. In the end, he opened a book in the Taoist temple and recited the meditation tips recorded on it dozens of times. This meditation technique is very useful, and every time you recite it several times, it has a calming effect. Now that I have true qi in my body, I can recite this meditation trick again, and the effect is even more amazing.

"How did this raspberry grass become a little different?" Li Qingxuan looked at the raspberry grass blades that had turned golden, and guessed in his heart that this was about fifteen-year-old raspberry grass. A raspberry herb can only live for thirteen or fourteen years, so the fifteen-year-old raspberry herb is just a saying, and I don't know if it really exists.

Even if there is, but if one is not good, it will die, and the cold grass leaves that are less than fifteen years old are no different from the raspberry grass leaves that grow a twist. Now this raspberry grass has turned from green to gold, and the taste is fresh, and eighty percent of it has become a fifteen-year-old raspberry grass.

"Just the soup and porridge that I eat, and the sewage from washing the dishes, can grow into a fifteen-year-old raspberry grass?" Li Qingxuan secretly exclaimed: "If you raise it for a few more days, won't it become the legendary hundred-year-old raspberry grass?" That's just a legend, and it is estimated that there is no such thing." ”
