Chapter 37 Recuperation
After the meeting of the Kunlun faction ended, Tian Xu took the gift to thank Ying Song for saving his life.
There were four kinds of gifts he gave to Ying Song: a complete spirit leopard skin with no scars on it, a box of thousand-year-old jade honey, a box of cordyceps, and a tiger skin space bag. This space bag was obtained by Aunt Xu from the Humen disciple on the day of her ascension, and there were no precious things in it at that time, but fortunately, the space was large enough, and now he took it as a gift.
Last night, he didn't know what happened after he fell into a coma, it was what Ziyan told him after he came out of his state of concentration today. At that time, Ziyan was crying while talking, his unknown appearance after he was injured last night was too scary, and Ziyan thought he was going to die at that time.
Ziyan said: "If Uncle Ying hadn't arrived in time yesterday, you would have escaped from the hands of that tiger mighty?"
The house where Tian Xu recuperated was in the middle of the top of Tiantai Mountain, and he lived here for three days, going out to move for a while every morning and evening, and practicing and healing in his room the rest of the time. In between his cultivation, he would find a copy of the Zhuangzi to read, or think about the truth in the book.
As a disciple of Kunlun, Ziyan originally had a lot of work to do. But she asked her father for leave, and she has been by Tian Xu's side for the past few days, taking care of his life. The two usually don't talk much, and when Tian Xu was practicing, she recited the Heart Purification Mantra next to her to assist Tian Xu, and helped Tian Xu boil medicine and cook the rest of the time. It's a reversal of the usual twitter.
On the third day, the cultivation market officially began, and their house was in the middle of the market, surrounded by people.
Tian Xu was so noisy that he couldn't settle down, so he went out with Ziyan to hang out.
In the fenced area in the middle of the bazaar are relatively formal stalls, somewhat resembling shops. The things sold inside are generally much more high-end than those on the stalls outside. It's just that the prices of the things here are really not cheap, maybe most of these shopkeepers have learned and specialized, and the chances of "picking up" and buying good things like the other day are obviously much less.
Tian Xu didn't find a treasure here that was cost-effective enough to attract him, so he got out of the fence and went to the stall area outside.
After the official opening of the market, the number of stalls has increased several times compared to the previous days. The crowds here are denser than inside the fence, and he is obviously not the only one who has the intention of picking and missing.
Walking not far away, Tian Xu unexpectedly ran into Liu Jucai, who was also "sweeping the stall".
"Hey, isn't this the shopkeeper Liu?" Tian Xu took the initiative to greet Liu Jucai, "Why didn't you come out of the stall?
Liu Jucai smiled and said: "No, I sold it for a few days in a row, and I got a little tired of selling it, so I put it in the store." This is not to see if there is a suitable stall, and then have a good time. ”
This shopkeeper Liu has no interest in picking leaks, but he is keen on this kind of market activity, just to get something he doesn't know about to sell. For his peculiar hobby, Tian Xu and Ziyan are both grateful and insensitive.
After chatting a few words, Tian Xu asked: "Did the biggest egg that I don't know what it was sold?" If it wasn't sold, why don't you give it to me, I don't know what's going on in the past two days, and I'm always thinking about this thing." ”
"Okay. When he wasn't doing business, Shopkeeper Liu was generous, "But you have to tell me what kind of egg this is." ”
Tian Xu shook his hands helplessly and said, "I just don't know what it is, so I'm curious, and I want to get it back and study it." In this way, I'll tell you the result anyway, how about it?" That day, Tian Xu's olfactory imaging and elixir identification could not determine what this thing was, it had no aura communication with the outside world at all, and Tian Xu's aura was also blocked, and it had no taste, it was really mysterious.
Liu Jucai agreed: "Okay, you go to Ah Xiong and ask for it." The shop is in the fence, not far from the Kunlun faction's house, where Ah Xiong is looking at the shop today. ”
After bidding farewell to Liu Jucai, they came to a stall that was tightly surrounded by a crowd, and after squeezing in with a lot of effort, they found that this was a stall specializing in selling various exercises and secrets.
Generally, the stalls that sell this kind of stuff don't attract too many people, because the things sold here are basically fake, or incomplete, or just too powerful. If there is a good exercise, strictly keeping it secret and cultivating by yourself is the royal way, who will take it out and sell it. This booth can attract so many people because of a special thing, which is even more unusual for Tian Xu, it is actually the entire manuscript of his father Tian Chuan's three heart sutras when he was young!
The paper and pen and ink used for these manuscripts are ordinary road goods, and there are no signatures, and they are placed in transparent sealed bags one by one, and it is not difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. Tian Chuan's Heart Sutra has been reprinted many times, widely circulated, and there are many people who use it as a book to study.
The focus of everyone's discussion is that there is not even the slightest aura fluctuation on these manuscripts, and they look like simple calligraphy works. For cultivators, this kind of thing that only has artistic value and commemorative significance is of little use. The stall owner offered 50 points, which was too high.
A few days ago, Xu Jingyi, who crossed the tribulation and ascended, is said to have embarked on the path of cultivation only after comprehending Tian Chuan's Heart Sutra.
Tian Xu didn't care about these manuscripts, his father donated them directly to the temple after he finished writing, and they didn't belong to his family. Just as he squeezed out of the crowd and was about to leave, he was stopped.
Tian Xu looked back and saw that it was the Daotong monk who escaped with his life in the hands of Xu Jingyi. At this time, Daotong had short hair and changed into a monk's robe, he didn't recognize it at first sight, but his sense of smell remembered the smell on Daotong's body.
"Amitabha," Daotong said, "Mr. Tian, can you be sure that this manuscript is genuine?"
Tian Xu didn't have a bad feeling for him, nodded and said: "The Tai Chi charm in the manuscript is very obvious, and Zhongzheng is peaceful, it should be my father's authentic handiwork." Do you want to buy it?"
Daotong said, "Yes." That day, I was enlightened by Master Xu, and I had a deep understanding of this Heart Sutra, and now I see the authentic work of Master Tian, and I want to take it back to study it. ”
It turns out that in the cultivation world, cultivators who have successfully ascended to the throne are generally called "certain immortals", and if the other party has the grace of teaching or enlightening them, they are honored as "certain teachers". Daotong is a student of Xu Jingyi and Tian Chuan.
Daotong thanked Tian Xu and said, "Thank you, Amitabha." "Although he dressed as a layman, he still acted in the style of a monk.
Tian Xu didn't care about this, and said, "Amitabha." Seeing that Daotong squeezed into the crowd, he walked away with Ziyan.
