11. The change of the cart before the horse
The room quickly sank into silence, and even Zhang Xiaobai, who originally called her daughter's name gently, stopped making a sound unconsciously, and just quietly accompanied her.
Cultivators like Zhou You and Elder Miao have always been particularly able to calm down, not to mention that when a person is in retreat and practice, he has not communicated with others for ten or twenty years, and he has also experienced the situation of being in a quiet environment.
Elder Miao walked to the gate and looked at the thunder scars and rain curtains in the sky, no matter how long he watched, the mysteries of heaven and earth were always not enough to see and comprehend.
"It's incredible that the rain curtain pulls people. Elder Miao thought secretly in his heart.
Xi Mingyue found a futon on the side and sat down and began to run her spiritual power, after all, she would have to stab out 80,000 swords when it was dawn.
When the rain was about to dawn, the rain stopped.
The two elders standing in the room and Du Yueshan, who was in charge of the disciples of the mountain platform, looked at Su Qingyi, who had woken up.
After a night of torture, Su Qingyi only felt that her limbs were weak again.
She used the breath in her body slightly, and found that it was empty without a trace of spiritual power.
"Your physique is too special to retain your spiritual power, and all your spiritual power collapsed last night," Zhou You explained to Su Qingyi.
Su Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and quickly accepted the reality: "That's the case, is there a way to remedy it?"
Zhou You shook his head: "I don't know, wait until I go back and look through the ancient books to see if there is any record of your situation." "Practicing for a long time, many things will be recorded along with the growth process of the practitioner, and left for future generations to refer to, which is the inheritance of the practitioner.
"Well, thank you Zhou Xian for growing up. Su Qingyi thanked him.
Elder Miao looked at Su Qingyi and smiled slightly and said, "This kid is in a good mood, he is not shocked, he can't say that he will have his own creation, and he doesn't need to be too disappointed." It's okay here, so I'll go. ”
Du Yueshan also saluted and said goodbye: "The disciple is in charge of the affairs of the mountain gate, if there is no order, the disciple will retire first." ”
Zhou You nodded: "Well, you guys go." ”
Waiting for Elder Miao and Du Yueshan to leave, Zhou You said straight to the point: "Little girl Xiaobai, now Qingyuer's physique cultivation path is extremely difficult, I hope you can worship under my door to practice swordsmanship, what do you think?"
Zhang Xiaobai was surprised, and even felt a little ridiculous: "Immortal Zhou Chang, you didn't laugh, did you?" Originally, he wanted his daughter to worship in the fairy gate, but how did he finally become the apprentice who accompanied his daughter to the mountain?
Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?
"I'm serious, you have already stepped on the Tianmen Hall last night, which proves that although you have been delayed for twenty years, your swordsmanship practice in the world has also laid a good foundation for you, and now that you have entered the innate realm, you can practice qi to build a foundation, and there is nothing wrong with worshipping under my door. Zhou You patiently explained to Zhang Xiaobai.
He also said: "Originally, I calculated that Su Qingyi had undergone a mysterious change, and I wanted to take her as an apprentice and bring her into Tianmen Mountain, but the first time I saw her, I knew that she had already comprehended the method of cultivating the mind on her own, so I only asked her if she wanted to enter Tianmen Mountain. ”
"I worship you as a teacher, can Qingyi continue to stay in Tianmen Mountain?" Zhang Xiaobai asked.
Su Qingyi looked at her mother, with such an opportunity, her mother was most concerned about herself.
Zhou You asked, "What would you do if I said that her staying on the mountain would affect your cultivation and that you were going to send her down the mountain?"
Zhang Xiaobai was very worried that he would anger Zhou You by saying a bad word, and really sent their mother and daughter down the mountain, without this fairy fate, her daughter didn't know how many illnesses she would suffer, but she would not give up her daughter anyway.
"If Qing'er goes down the mountain, I will accompany her down the mountain. Zhang Xiaobai said firmly.
Zhou You didn't get angry but laughed: "You are a stubborn character, but you won't break up your mother and daughter like this, Qingyuer can go to Zhou Humble Mountain to recuperate, you can follow me to cultivate, and when your strength is stronger, follow me to travel to famous mountains and rivers, you are not strong, even if you are my disciple, I can't always help you raise your daughter."
Su Qingyi's eyes lit up, Zhou Zhuoshan, she promised to come to Tianmen just to see this mountain, since she woke up from that big dream, there was a voice in her heart that eagerly wanted to confirm the connection between dream and reality.
If you travel, Zhang Xiaobai's last worries and reluctance will be suppressed in his mouth, yes, this is the last chance for their mother and daughter.
Zhang Xiaobai knelt neatly on the ground: "Master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”
Xi Mingyue, who had just woken up in a daze, rubbed her eyes and got up from the ground.
Hey, why did Aunt Bai kowtow to Zhou Xianchang?
Zhou You smiled and bowed, and looked at the sleepy-eyed Xi Mingyue: "You swing your sword 80,000 times a day now?"
Xi Mingmian nodded subconsciously: "Well, I'm almost tired to death every day" This is what she said in her heart, and she said it accidentally.
Zhou You smiled, and was in a very good mood: "Well, yes, you have already practiced the third layer of qi, your Senior Sister Zhang has been able to step into the Tianmen Palace, you can build the foundation within 100 days as soon as possible, the old man is about to travel, and I will take you with me if you can catch up." ”
"Xiaobai and Qingyu'er, let's enter the Tianmen Wonderland with me first. "The inner gate of Tianmen Mountain passes through the inner area of the Tianmen Palace, which is the real Tianmen Wonderland.
The amount of information made Xi Mingyue a little incredulous, wait, Aunt Bai went to the stone platform last night to ask for help She knows, so Aunt Bai really succeeded?
"Aunt Bai, Senior Sister Zhang, what's going on?" Xi Mingyue asked, what about Qingyu'er?
"Hahaha, I want to call Senior Sister Zhang in the future, you are practicing for exactly a month now, and there are still seventy days, according to your speed, it is not impossible to build a foundation in 100 days, don't be distracted and work hard, your Senior Sister Zhang will follow me into the inner gate to cultivate first, and Qingyuer will also go to the inner gate to recuperate, just waiting for you." ”
"So from today onwards, I live alone at the foot of the mountain?" Xi Mingyue realized that his neighbor was going to fly, so who would carry him back if he practiced the sword again?
Zhang Xiaobai explained the confusion to Xi Mingyue and comforted: "Don't be afraid if you live by yourself, there is Du Zhangxue on the mountain, and I will pick you up when you enter the inner door." ”
Xi Mingyue nodded: "Well, Aunt Bai, you and Qingyu'er go first, don't worry about me, I can take care of myself." ”
At this time, the sky was already bright, Xi Mingyue stood on the stone platform in front of her residence, and watched Zhou You take Zhang Xiaobai and Qingyuer into the clouds and float into the Tianmen Hall and disappear.
There is an indescribable sense of vicissitudes on the immature cheeks, which is particularly interesting.
After a long time, she sighed for a long time, she was only seven years old and had already experienced a lot of life changes!
She Xi Mingyue is sure that Aunt Bai has definitely been strange enough to become Senior Sister Zhang or something, and the other sister who originally thought that she was going to become her niece?
It's surprisingly fun to think about!
Before leaving, Zhou You left a sword book for Xi Mingyue, called "Frost and Snow". At first glance, I thought it was a collection of poems, but Xi Mingyue flipped through it and found that the shape and meaning of this set of swordsmanship were 'bright moon and clean, and the ground was like frost and snow', which was very suitable for her name.
In any case, after practicing the basic movements for a whole month, Xi Mingyue is going to really step into kendo cultivation from today.
