Chapter 6: The House of the Qi Refiners
A day of war and chaos has begun again.
At breakfast, Yun Susu turned around and changed the way to the old lady Yun and Yun Cheng Yunqing to popularize the knowledge of cultivating immortals:
"Old lady, what do you tell me that my words are not in vain, is it true that if there is no shadow of what we have said, we can find roots on other planets or spaces? What does the words on our lips: Nine Clouds Outside, Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens mean? Could it be naΓ―ve that it is divided into nine layers?"
"Your boss said that there are gods three feet above your head, is there really a god? Where do the gods live? Do they live outside the clouds that we can't see, and don't you sweep us with your divine sense to know who is doing good and who is doing evil?"
"Rabbit cubs, do you know why I named you Yuncheng and Yunqing, because since Pangu opened the world, the breath of Qingling Yang and harmony has risen, and the heavy and dull substance has sunk, and the old lady hopes that you will be ambitious, continue to cultivate your body and mind, make yourself clear, psychic, and sunny, and at least let your soul go up every day, you know?"
"The Ministry of Education gave you the course "Ideology and Morality", and the original intention was to let you learn well. In fact, it is better to open a course on Taoism: study the Tao Te Ching and the Nanhua Sutra to gain more insight into the Tao and the relationship between man and nature; read the Analects and Mencius to find out the relationship between people and between people and society, so as to enrich the righteousness in our hearts. That's right, and then memorize Wen Tianxiang's "Song of Righteousness", Fan Zhongyan's "The Story of Yueyang Tower", and Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong", those positive energy is the foundation of morality!"
γγγγγγ
"What an inverted frieze child, feverish and confused?" Old Lady Yun approached her and probed her forehead with a look of disgust.
"Mom gave you a thermometer! You're so abnormal today, take a quick test to see if you have a fever? I don't need you to send us to school today, I'll just take my sister on the bus." Yun Cheng Deng Deng ran and brought a thermometer.
Yun Qing looked at her worriedly and wanted to cry.
βγγγγγγ οΌοΌοΌβ
Yun Susu was not discouraged, and when she sent her children to school, she asked the two children to recite the Tao Te Ching to her along the way. As a responsible mother, after telling them bedtime stories every day, she will pick up a little more traditional cultural classics to read to them until they fall asleep. The Tao Te Ching is the most read, and both of them can now memorize it.
After three months of infiltration like this, the three members of the family have psychologically accepted the concept that Yun Susu deliberately instilled in them: there is a wider world beyond the universe, lofty aspirations will really communicate with the gods, and the earth was once rich in aura, so there were gods in ancient times, immortals in ancient times, and even now, those Jedi and secret realms are actually living in the world of hermitage cultivators.
At this time, Yun Susu has already refined the third layer of qi, and her cultivation is sensitive to the five senses, full of energy, and her true yuan is profound, and her worldly martial arts such as lifting a tripod, piercing the yang in a hundred steps, and walking on the wall are no longer a problem, and her daily work, labor, taking care of the family, and dealing with complex personnel will no longer make her feel tired.
She first took the stack of books out of the study of the lotus house, and asked Yun Chengyun to turn them over when he was free, then poured spiritual spring water for them to drink, and took out the spiritual fruit for them to eat, and finally filled a Naxu bottle with water to show them the performance of turning one bottle into ten bottles, in order to prove that the immortals are real, which can be regarded as completely conquering the hearts of the old and the young.
Watching them fuss and amazement, she adjusted her expression to advanced mode and told them that the cultivation techniques in the book were all real and could be put into action, and that the particularly delicious water and fruits were not bought from any mall, but were given to her by the immortals she had met.
"Can I really cultivate? Can I practice like the immortals on TV, stepping on a sword and flying in the sky?" Yun Cheng looked excited and yearning.
"Is there really an immortal?Why haven't I met it?Is it good-looking?Is there a streamer on the clothes?" Yun Qing's focus is always different from others.
"Can you live forever after eating your spirit fruit?" Old Lady Yun pursed her lips, trying to show her disdain, but her trembling hands revealed the fact that she was excited now.
γγγγγγ
Yun Susu made a vigorous gesture of waving the knife to cut off the water, ending their 100,000 why-style questions, holding Mrs. Yun's withered old hand with one hand, and holding the two children in her arms with the other, and suddenly brought them into the lotus house. Speaking with facts is the best way to solve the problem.
The kitchen of the lotus house has been equipped with a full set of kitchen utensils, and the floor has been paved, the wall has been pasted, the water and sewer channels have been set up, and the water pipes are all built into the wall;
The three floors and six small ear rooms at both ends of the main house have also been converted into bathrooms by Yun Susu - waterproof paint has been brushed four or five times, the floor has also been paved and pasted to the wall, the water supply has been made into the wall stack, and the washbasin, toilet, bathtub and shower are also available;
There were originally two water tanks in the kitchen, both of which were cisterns refined by the great gods, and as soon as the great gods made a casual move, these two cisterns had a space storage function hundreds of times that of the outside world. Two pools of spiritual spring water, one for cooking and boiling water, and one pool with a condensation array, can provide a steady stream of ordinary water. Yun Susu drew a pipe from this ordinary pool to the outside of the wall, leading to six bathrooms for washing and flushing toilets.
She moved all the furniture, clothes, straw mats, and books on the first floor to the second floor, and prepared for her to live in for herself. The one on the second floor was moved to the first floor, and a full set of soft furnishings that met the aesthetics of the old man were added, leaving it for Mrs. Yun to live in. On the third floor, a bed was added to the west room, and the two rooms at both ends were converted into cloakrooms and training rooms, ready to be used for two children.
The project is very large. But if you ask Yun Susu who to find to come in and do the decoration? Will it expose the existence of the space? How do you get the decoration materials and furniture soft decoration in? Hehe, the decoration master is Yun Susu himself, so he is not afraid of exposing the space. She entered the lotus house every night, sacrificing one-third of her cultivation time, toiling to make slots on the walls, taking water pipes, cement, laying bricks, and sticking to the walls, making herself as miserable as a dog and as tired as a cow, and her body was as dirty as a beggar on a street corner. In this way, it took half a month, equivalent to about five months in the outside world, to finally complete the decoration of the kitchen and bathroom. As for how to enter the lotus house with decoration materials, furniture, and soft decorations, she can't do it without knowing it, and she hasn't entered the Tao yet, her body can't absorb the aura, and she has only cultivated a brute force, and she can't bring too many things in and out of the lotus house at once, let alone transfer items with her mind. I had to think of a stupid way, rented a remote yard nearby, and asked the store to send things in, and she moved in little by little like a hard-working little bee.
It's very hard. Three of the four members of the family are old and weak, and need to be taken care of by others, only she is a strong laborer, her parents only have two sons in their hearts, her brothers have been raised by her since childhood, the fathers of the children have long been lost in the bright lights, and she is a woman who works day and night like a coolie, and no one can be relied on, but what does it matter? Look at the two children cheering and fighting for the room, look at the old lady Yun who is confused when she touches the rosewood furniture, what else can not be overcome?
Besides, why should she rely on others? Old Madam Yun often said that relying on the mountains and mountains depends on everyone to run, and it is better to rely on no one than on herself.
The Yun family's small courtyard has been quiet since then, because they close the courtyard door and enter the lotus house whenever they have free time. Since then, the four members of the Yun family have secretly become qi refiners.
Half a year later, Yun Susu's cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth layer of qi refining. Yun Cheng and Yun Qing have also entered the third layer of qi refining, and the old lady Yun is the most surprising, she has neither to go to school nor to work, and she has no good relatives and old sisters, so almost all of her time is spent in the lotus house, and her cultivation has grown upward, and she has actually cultivated to the fourth layer of qi refining.
Monks refining qi, absorbing the true qi between heaven and earth, cultivating the true yuan of the dantian under the body, the true yuan is full of can wash the spiritual platform, promote the manifestation of the spiritual root, only the spiritual root appears, the body can be in harmony with the outside spiritual machine, so as to attract the external spiritual energy into the body, the body is washed and the marrow is removed, and the body is transformed to cultivate immortals.
Therefore, the Qi refining period is the preparatory period for cultivating immortals. There are a total of twelve levels in the Qi refining period, and when Yun Susu is at the fifth level of Qi refining, he has officially entered the middle level of Qi refining, and his skin, flesh, muscles and bones have been tempered to a certain extent, and he has begun to use some herbal pills and spiritual food and spiritual fruits to assist in cultivation. At this stage, the monk has already sensed spiritual power, but he should not take too much, and there is a danger of violent body if he overdoses. Although there is not much spiritual power that can be absorbed, this small amount of spiritual power is much more effective than true yuan for refining muscles and bones, purifying the body, and gathering true yuan.
Objectively speaking, in the process of cultivation, monks are inseparable from the assistance and blessing of spiritual objects, because the slower and more difficult it is to advance in the future, the more spiritual energy is needed, no matter what stage of cultivation it is, it will be extremely difficult to advance by absorbing the true qi, spiritual energy, immortal qi or divine energy in the air alone.
Fortunately, Yun Susu owned the lotus house, and the four members of the Yun family were able to cultivate in the lotus house.
The lotus house is filled with a concentration of aura ten times the average of the spirit world, in order to prevent Yun Susu from absorbing too much damage to the meridians and even dying of violence, the great god Xu Xuan deliberately set up a transformation circle in the courtyard, and kept converting the aura into true qi. Spiritual Qi was originally the essence of True Qi, and with this transformation, the concentration and purity of True Qi in the Lotus House were almost a hundred times that of the outside world, plus ten times the speed of time flow in the outside world, if the growth rate of their cultivation was not fast, it would be strange.
After entering the intermediate level, they are even more wise, the meridians are smooth, and the true yuan is profound, and they can easily play the legendary amazing martial arts such as stepping on the snow without a trace, picking leaves and flying flowers, and fighting cattle across the mountains.
It's just that Yun Susu himself is low-key, and he obeys the requirements written by Xu Xuan in "In Qinglian Suyi", is cautious about the secret of having lotus seed space, and repeatedly advises Mrs. Yun and Yun Qingyun Cheng that she never dares to take it lightly, so as not to suffer from the misfortune of Huaibi; the two children also know the benefits and harms, and never show their extraordinaryness in front of others; Mrs. Yun is happy to be fine, and she knows even more about fear.
In addition to going to work and picking up and dropping off children, Yun Susu spends the rest of his time in the lotus house, planting spiritual grass, preparing grass pills, refining medicinal liquids, absorbing true qi, gathering true yuan, and guiding the cultivation of Old Lady Yun and her two children.
Now for this family of four, cultivation is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that they can spend time in the lotus house at will, but they will no longer have a sense of urgency and guilt.
Yun Susu finally understood Tao Yuanming:
"The garden is involved in the fun, although the door is set up and often closed;
γγγ Please rest and leave for a long time, and when will you be in the middle of the house?
