Chapter 8 Spiritual Tea
As the saying goes: "Small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city." β
This is the case with the Kunlun faction's mortal stronghold in Xitai.
Walk straight along West Street for 100 steps, and then turn right at the intersection to see the most famous Yaoxiang Street in Xitai.
Starting from the intersection, on the left side is the largest spice shop in Xitai - Agarwood Pavilion, from the raw materials of incense materials to the finished fragrance and balm, as long as you think of incense-related, there is nothing he can't do.
The shops on the right are the Zhao Family Medical Center specializing in pediatrics, the Chunlai Pharmacy specializing in herbal medicine, the Miaoshou Huichun Hall specializing in the treatment of incurable diseases, and a Donglai pawnshop that is open in the medical hall on an unusual path.
And Kunlun's stronghold in Xitai is this Donglai pawnshop.
"When I looked for your treasurer, I said that he had come from the west. Yu Yu came to the door of the Donglai pawnshop and said to the little boy who was counting the silver taels
Hearing this, Xiao Tong confirmed with her again: "You are a guest from the west?"
"Yes. β
"Wait a minute, I'll tell the shopkeeper. When the boy got the answer, he ran upstairs.
As she waited, she looked around, the pawnshop was small but eye-catching.
The golden plaque is already very eye-catching, and the blue curtain at the door embroidered with the word "dang" is embroidered with gold thread, the sun shines on the golden light, revealing a breath of the rich man from the inside out.
To say that the location of this pawnshop is very wonderful, who can not have a small illness and pain in the world, if you are sick, you have to find a doctor, and if you look for a doctor, you will naturally have to go to the doctor.
It costs money to see a doctor, and it costs more money to see a famous doctor, and this money is not for everyone. What should I do if I don't have money, there are only a few ways to get money without stealing or robbing, since I can't borrow it, I can only sell it.
As soon as the people who look down on the sick go out, they can see the four golden characters of "Donglai Pawnshop", and their minds are naturally active.
Donglai pawnshop's business should be doing very well.
Just as Yu Su sighed that the owner of the pawnshop really knew how to choose a location, a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties came down from upstairs and walked down, and when he saw Yu Su, he greeted and said: "This is Senior Sister Yu Su, I have admired the name for a long time, and please talk upstairs." β
Most of the Kunlun disciples who will take over the tasks of stationing in the mortal stronghold are hopeless cultivators, and the same is true for Jin Youcai, who has six out of forty this year, but his cultivation is still at the sixth level of qi training.
After confirming the identity jade plate, Jin Youcai and Yu Yu began to explain the current situation.
"The general secular small stronghold is three Qi cultivation period disciples with a foundation building period deacon, who inspects the area in charge every month, and can act on their own if they have nothing to do on weekdays, and if there is a situation, they can contact them with the transmission note. β
"Recently, the northern suburbs of Xitai have been a little uneven, Uncle Wu and Senior Sister Yang have gone over there to investigate, and I will introduce you when they come back. β
Yu Yu's face was embarrassed: "Senior Brother Jin should know my situation, I can't use the transmission note." β
Kunlun's side had already sent Yu Yu's information in advance, and Jin Youcai knew her situation: "The message we gave you should be able to receive the transmission note, if you can't send the transmission note, let someone else go to the Donglai pawnshop to deliver the message if you have something, do you think this is feasible?"
He thought it through thoroughly, and there was nothing wrong with Yu Yu.
"Senior Brother Jin is thoughtful, so let's do so. β
Jin Youcai suddenly felt a little pity for this junior sister, although it was difficult for him to be promoted, he had an expectation, and Yu Yu could only be desperate.
Jin Youcai's eyes were full of sympathy when he looked at Yu Su, and he poured a cup of tea for Yu Su as he spoke: "Senior Sister Yu taste this tea." β
Yu Yu took the cyan porcelain cup and took a sip, this tea has a mellow taste, fragrant but not astringent, and some spiritual power is integrated into the body after swallowing.
It's a pity that it's a bit of a tyrannical thing for her now.
"Good tea!" she praised.
Seeing that she liked it, Jin Youcai smiled and said: "It's just ordinary spiritual tea, but it's rare in the mundane, and it was obtained by a junior in my family from a Taoist priest to honor me." β
It was also Yu Su who was in a hurry, he just received this tea yesterday, and it was cheap for Yu Yu today.
"It's a pure filial piety. β
Hearing her praise her junior, Jin Youcai's smile became more sincere: "Yes, this kid is filial, but it's a pity that he has no spiritual roots." β
The spiritual root is the most basic difference between a monk and a mortal, and without the spiritual root, there is no chance to embark on the immortal path.
As long as there is a spiritual root, even the worst five spiritual roots are different from mortals, talent is important, but hard work and luck are also indispensable, and it is not without those who have successfully counterattacked the spiritual root.
But if you don't have a spiritual root, you don't even have the qualifications to work hard to counterattack.
Yu Su thought of herself, there was still a miracle of repairing the dantian in the immortal cultivation world, so she refused to give up.
But if she didn't have a spiritual root from the beginning, would she still be as persistent as she is now? Would she give up cultivating immortals?
Yu was a little stunned, looking at the porcelain cup and falling into deep thought.
The aura gathered and surged around her, and the noise around her was cut off, as if she was the only one left in the heavens.
She seemed to see the picture of meeting Master Tianhe for the first time-
When she was six years old, she went to the Qiancheng Temple with Mrs. Yu to worship the Buddha, and sneaked out to play while everyone was not paying attention, but she got lost in the mountains and forests.
It was a winter evening, and the fine snow shuttled between the trees like flying flowers, and the ground was cold, and the sky and the earth were the same.
Her face was blue from the cold, her hands and feet were numb, and she shivered under a huge mountain pine.
The sky was getting darker, and her body was getting colder, and sleepiness was eating away at her little by little.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, a silver light fell from the sky.
Tianhe Zhenren's clothes swayed with the wind, and the sword volley fell in front of her.
"Are you an immortal?"
He rescued her from freezing to death, and he asked her, "Do you want to become an immortal?"
"Yes. "The crisp children's voices are particularly clear in the mountains.
Tianhe Zhenren sighed: "It's a pity that you don't have a spiritual root, and you have no chance with the immortal path in this life, so it's better to stay in the mortal world and be a rich idler." β
The difference between immortals and mortals is like the separation between heaven and earth.
The picture turned to her seventeen years old.
She has grown into a standard official lady, learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, reading female virtues and female rings, gentle temperament, generous manners, and a fiancΓ© with a comparable family background, who is about to get married.
"Third sister, you're about to get married, why do you keep holding these broken books. Yu Xin pouted.
Her third sister has been addicted to these fairy books since she was a child, and she will get married in two days, and she is still holding these books and refusing to let go.
Yu Yu was a little stunned, yes, she was going to get married, and this ridiculous fairy dream should also wake up.
She chased for eleven years, trying to find a word about the gods from various texts, but found nothing.
She knew very well that back then, the Heavenly and Daoist people told her that there was a difference between immortals, and without a spiritual root, she would never be able to cross the hurdle called the immortal path.
She's just been making a fool of herself.
She picked up the books and said to her sister with a smile, "It's useless to keep these books, I'm about to burn them." β
"Have you figured it out?" Yu Xin was a little surprised.
"Hmm. Yu Su's hand touched the books with nostalgia before calling the maid, "Burn these books, just burn them in this courtyard." β
The maid answered, took the brazier and went into the courtyard, and burned it one by one.
The ashes in the basin were increasing, and the smoke and dust drifted through the air.
She thought that her obsession would disappear with the ashes of these books, but the unwillingness in her heart gathered more and more, and she couldn't suppress it.
