Li Xuandu and Bai Juan are both masters of the Nine-Story Building of the Returning to the True Realm, although they are from a background, they also quickly discovered Qin Daofang who had already gone out, and after returning to their senses one after another, they were a little surprised.

Fortunately, Qin Daofang didn't say much, and knew that the two of them neither went to the inn nor went to look for the carriage, so they could only walk to the inn not far away on crutches.

Li Xuandu and Bai Juan followed behind Qin Daofang.

The inn in Zhujiazhuang is naturally not as good as the inn in the town, and even the Taiping inn in the mountains and wilderness is not as good, although Qin Daofang is the governor, he doesn't care, and turns his head and asks, "What do you want to eat?"

Bai Juan shook his head and said, "I've been in Bigu recently. ”

Li Xuandu was puzzled: "You are injured, and you can't just rely on food and drink." ”

Bai Juan said unceremoniously: "You want to take care of it?"

Li Xuandu was not angry, and said with a smile: "If you don't eat, you won't eat, I'll eat your share for you." ”

There is a saying in the Taoist classics: "Meat eaters are brave and fierce, grain eaters are wise and skillful, gas eaters are gods and live long, and those who do not eat are immortal and godly." "Therefore, before the innate realm, the martial artist ate meat, and the fang scholar ate the grain, and after reaching the innate realm, both of them could intermittently carry out the valley, and after reaching the realm of returning to the truth, they could open the valley for a long time for ten days and half a month. The so-called Bigu means not eating cereals, poultry and livestock, eating wind and drinking dew, and feeding on the vitality of heaven and earth. This is also the root reason why the realm of returning to the truth can rejuvenate the face.

Some people say that no matter how beautiful the fairy is, they must also excrete, but for those female masters, this is not true, because in order to keep their face alive, they began to do the act of opening the valley early, and they will not leak if they don't eat.

Now Li Xuandu can also open the valley, but for him, there is no need for this, because he is a martial artist, martial arts pay attention to blood, especially after injury, must eat a lot of flesh and blood, make up for the loss of blood, once there was a heavenly realm martial artist in one day to eat nine oxen, and the martial artist's physique is like a pixiu, only not in and out, can refine all the flesh and blood eaten into their own blood, make up for themselves, and strengthen their physique, but they are extremely particular about the way of refining, if the refining means are not refined but blindly replenish the flesh and blood, it is very likely to make their own body extremely large, inconvenient to move, which falls into the inferior。

If you can't set foot in the realm of immortality, counting all kinds of longevity exercises and secret medicines, Shouyuan only has three jiazi at most, if there is no other means, normally speaking, two jiazi is the limit. After the body dies, because its body is leaky, isolated from external evils, and its own is always pure, it can maintain the immortality of the body for hundreds of years, which is also the reason why many Buddhist monks still retain the body after their death.

Li Xuandu once remembered that his master once told him that three hundred years ago, the sect master of the Vajra Sect was a martial artist who had arrived in the realm of immortality, and at that time he was the suzerain of the Vajra Sect and the Shingon Sect, so in addition to practicing the exercises of the Vajra Sect, he also practiced the "Great Joy Zen" of the Shingon Sect, even if he did not eat flesh and blood, but by absorbing a huge number of female Yuan Yin, he still grew his own qi and blood to an extremely terrifying extent. It has reached the point where if this monk does not deliberately restrain himself, his whole body will exude a red breath, standing beside him, it is as if he is standing in a huge furnace, the blood is prosperous, and everywhere he goes, all ghosts will be cleared, and the evil spirits will disperse. And his whole person is like an ancient beast, if his body is completely liberated, he can turn into a height of ten zhang, this is the Dharma body.

However, the fate of this monk is not too good, it can be said that it is also Yuan Yin, and the defeat is also Yuan Yin, the reasons for such a number are naturally extremely mixed, making his body seem to be strong but flawed, and even damage the root of life, in the eyes of other immortals in the immortal realm, the outside is strong and the middle is dry, and finally when this person wants to turn into a rainbow and go to the Western Bliss, he can't resist the power of heaven and earth, and turns into ashes.

To put it far, in the past hundred years, Qi Ying, the governor of Qinzhong at that time, in addition to being powerful with a gun, is also a person who is proficient in "eating the way", once led the army to hunt a strange beast, its shape is like a red leopard, five tails and one horn, its sound is like hitting a stone, Qi Ying ate it, three years without hunger.

However, this method should also be cautious, if the refining method is not refined, I am afraid that the characteristics of a strange beast will appear on the body, the reason why the Qingyang Sect's green bull horn got this nickname is because after he accidentally ate the flesh and blood of a strange cow, a bulge shaped like a rhinoceros horn was born on his forehead.

Therefore, for the martial arts, the most positive good thing is not a natural treasure, this is the category of "valley", that is the preference of the alchemist, the martial artist prefers the flesh and blood of various foreign beasts, and eats on it to strengthen the blood.

If not, it can only be replaced with ordinary food, so Li Xuandu basically eats every meal, only in and out, so that he can also increase his qi and blood very slowly, that is, essence and blood, and then refine and refine qi, refining qi and transforming gods.

So Li Xuandu ordered two leg of mutton very arrogantly, and Qin Daofang only needed a bowl of Yangchun noodles.

Bai Juan, who had nothing, watched Li Xuandu eat these two roast leg of mutton, which was somewhat unexpected to her, Li Xuandu did not eat the heroic posture of eating meat in large pieces, but was extremely meticulous, and the son of the family who was most particular about etiquette came to eat the leg of mutton, but Li Xuandu ate it very fast, which was a little weird.

Qin Daofang's bowl of Yangchun noodles was not finished, and only two white leg bones were left in front of Li Xuandu.

Bai Juan said with a complicated expression: "Li Xian...... Zifu, you act like a starving ghost reincarnated. ”

Li Xuandu said calmly: "When I was young, my hometown happened to be in famine, and at that time, whether it was Guanyin soil or grass root bark, I ate everything I could, but even so, my father and mother were still starved to death, so for me, it was a blessing to be able to eat." ”

Qin Daofang, who was eating noodles, heard this, and also put down his chopsticks, and sighed: "I didn't expect Zifu to have such a situation, since the people take food as the sky, and now the tragic situation in Qizhou is also caused by the lack of food." ”

Bai Juan was silent for a moment, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I don't know......"

Li Xuandu waved his hand and said: "As far as I am concerned, there is nothing that cannot be said, as you said before, Bai Juan, the dead are gone, and the living are like this." ”

Qin Daofang glanced at Li Xuandu, then at Bai Juan, didn't pick up the pair of chopsticks again, and got up directly with his crutches and went to the guest room.

After only two people remained, Li Xuan wiped the grease off his hands and asked, "Go out for a walk?"

Bai Juan nodded: "It just so happens that I also have something to ask you." ”

It was getting dark, but it wasn't curfew yet, so no one came to stop them.

The two walked side by side for a while, looking at each other without saying a word.

Li Xuandu suddenly asked: "Miss Qin, you said earlier that you took the word 'white silk' yourself, I don't know why?"

Bai Juan didn't answer directly, but asked, "Mr. Li, when you first set foot in the rivers and lakes, why did you call Zifuke instead of using your original name?"

Li Xuandu was stunned and said: "According to common sense, you don't take the table word until the crown, but I am an exception, I originally took the name and the word together." The name 'Li Xuandu' is not well-known in the rivers and lakes, but it is still very famous in the sect. I was only ten years old at the time, said to be walking the rivers and lakes, in fact, it was just a trip in Qizhou, if I used my real name in Qizhou, the rivers and lakes of Qizhou are inextricably linked with the Qing Weizong, then many people will know my identity, and the so-called travel is meaningless. ”

"Later, I became a small sword, left Qizhou and went to the land of Heshuo, where I came to challenge here, and naturally I didn't dare to use my real name. If you lose, you will lose the reputation of the master and the sect, and if you win, you will have to make a feud, so you can simply use a fake name. There is a saying called 'if you are wrong, you will be wrong', and I didn't expect that I would break into the name of 'Purple Mansion Sword Immortal' on the rivers and lakes. ”

Li Xuandu looked at Bai Juan and asked, "What are you asking for?"

Bai Juan said: "Didn't you ask me why I used the name 'Bai Juan'?"

Li Xuandu nodded.

Bai Juan said: "I'll tell you now, it's a pen name." ”

Li Xuan was stunned.

In today's world, the script is not regarded as an avenue of articles, despised by people, and is not elegant, so the author of the script takes care of his reputation and mostly uses a pen name. On the black market, the most famous author is the laughing scholar of Lanling Mansion, and I still don't know who it is, but some people speculate that this person is Pei Zhou, one of the leaders of today's literary world, I don't know if it's true or not. There are also a few others, who are also famous, but they often give up halfway, and are speculated to be the great eunuchs in the palace, with high power, so they act rashly and chat for their own pleasure.

Then I listened to Bai Juan say to himself: "Although I am a disciple of the Forgetful Sect, I don't like to stay in Liaodong all the time, so I began to travel the world very early, from Liaodong to the land of Youyan, and then to the land of Heshuo, from Jiangbei to Jiangnan, from Jiangnan to Northwest, and then to the Central Plains, I saw a lot of beautiful scenery along the way, and also saw a lot of people and things, so I wanted to write it down." You also know that you can't use your own name for these words, so I gave myself the pen name 'Bai Juan'. ”

Bai Juan continued, "I want to write you into mine. ”

Li Xuandu tapped his forehead with his finger: "Script?"

Bai Juan nodded and said, "Script." ”

Li Xuandu asked, "Do you make money writing scripts?"

Bai Juan shook his head and said, "It's not very profitable, it's not as good as writing dramas." ”

Li Xuandu asked curiously, "I don't know what the white girl has to do?"

Bai Juan's face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed to say: "The ones that sell well on the market today are gods and demons, Jianghu rangers, and male and female affairs, I just wrote a book of talented and beautiful people, but unfortunately it doesn't sell very well, so I plan to write another book about Jianghu rangers." ”

Li Xuandu smiled: "You have never experienced a relationship between men and women, how to write a good relationship between men and women?"

Bai Juan's face was slightly red, and he said unconvinced: "You can write it." ”

Li Xuandu rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this? I'll write a book tomorrow, starting from the time we joined forces to retreat from the enemy at the Taiping Inn, and I have thought of the title of the book, it's called "The Legend of the Taiping Inn." ”
