Chapter 8 Searching for Mink in the Mountains

Mu Qing sat at the table with a grin, and asked Mu Zhenping excitedly, "Dad, what kind of spiritual root are you?"

Mu Zhenping knew that Mu Qing had been bored because he couldn't open the spirit, and he had never talked to him about the spiritual root, but now when he took the initiative to ask about it, he was looking forward to it, a little surprised, and didn't think much about it, and said: "I am two woods, one gold, one fire, and one earth." ”

Mu Qing nodded, and said, "What about the mother?"

"Your mother is Santu, and her qualifications are much better than mine. ”

"Wow!Santu!" Mu Qing said in surprise.

"What about Grandpa?" Mu Qing asked again.

"Your grandfather is also Liangmu, but his old man's qualifications are better than mine, and he still has Liangshui. ”

"Why is it better to have two trees and two water than Dad, you who only have two woods?" Mu Qing wondered. The white-haired old man didn't explain too much to him before, and the relationship between the five elements and spiritual roots was born.

Mu Zhenping said patiently: "The so-called aquatic wood, a monk who has two spiritual roots of water and wood at the same time, if it is a wood cultivation method, there is one water to complement it, and the cultivation effect can be increased by three percent, two water can be increased by sixty percent, and three water is ninety...... But if you have three waters, you can go and practice the water system exercises, right? ”

"I see. Mu Qing fell into contemplation again, he is full of five elements, and he chose the earth spirit root as the natal spirit root, according to the relationship between fire and earth, his cultivation effect can be increased by three percent.

Mu Zhenping continued: "Therefore, for the Twin Spirit Root and the Three Spirit Root Cultivators, the Mutual Spiritual Root without assistance is called the Ordinary Twin Spirit Root or the Ordinary Three Spirit Root, if there is one auxiliary Spirit Root, it is called the middle grade, and if there are two auxiliary Spirit Roots, it is called the upper grade. Dad is an ordinary Shuangmu Linggen, your grandfather is a top-grade Shuangmu Linggen, and your mother also has a fire Linggen, which is a fire-born earth, so it is a medium-grade Santu Linggen, which is already a very good qualification. ”

Mu Qing nodded, already understanding the truth of this spiritual root grade.

At this moment, his stomach rumbled again.

As soon as the wooden door opened, Ling Hulan had already come in with a plate of exquisite cakes.

Mu Qing picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth, and said hesitantly: "It's delicious, woo, it's delicious, I'm starving to death." ”

Ling Hulan hurriedly poured a glass of water in front of her, gently stroked the top of Mu Qing's head with one hand, and said softly: "Slow down, don't choke." ”

Mu Zhenping looked at Mu Qing gobbling up, and said in his heart, this child's temperament is really extraordinary, he only went out for a few hours, and he was like no one else, looking at this appetite, he seemed to be so happy as if he had suddenly opened his mind.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head again, and got up to go out.

Mu Qing swallowed hard and said, "Dad, why are you going?" I have to ask about this spiritual root qualification again!"

Mu Zhenping snorted and said, "Your second uncle sent that piece of purple sand refined iron last month, and now that the short sword I refined has been formed, and I will strive to recuperate for another three days, it should be ready to be baked, I will stay in the refining room for the next few days, don't bother me!"

Three days?

Mu Qing was stunned when she heard this, and immediately reacted, "Dad, have you refined a sword for me?"

Mu Zhenping still didn't smile, and said with a dark face: "Although your kid hasn't opened his soul yet, he always has to have a guy to defend himself." ”

He said "not yet enlightened", not "unable to enlighten", not "unable to enlighten"!

Mu Qing suddenly felt that her eyes were a little moist.

He had always thought that his father was frustrated and even a little disappointed in himself because he couldn't enlighten, but now he knew that he was wrong, because his father had refined a magic weapon for himself. You must know that the magic weapon must be driven by spiritual power to really play a role.

In this way, my father not only did not disappoint himself, but also firmly believed that he could enlighten himself, or even more than himself!

Mu Qing's heart was full of excitement and emotion, she looked at her father with burning eyes, and said, "Dad, when the child opens his spirit, just like what your father taught, you will bear morality with iron shoulders, and you will not be able to fight with a sword!"

Mu Zhenping looked at him with a solemn face, his heart was full of pride and emotion, but he squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, and turned around.

The delicate Ling Hulan walked up to Mu Qing and took out a golden diamond-shaped gem from her neck, which shone with a little golden light under the oil lamp, which was very beautiful.

Hanging the gem on Mu Qing's neck, Ling Hulan said: "This is a low-level magic weapon that my mother has carried since she was a child, called Liuli Jinpo, this thing cannot be used against the enemy, but it can make people more sensitive when they perceive the aura of heaven and earth, your father gave you a sword, and my mother will give you this." ”

Mu Qing plunged into Ling Hulan's arms, and tears secretly stained a large piece of his chest and placket.

"Mother, you can't be partial!"

A crisp voice came, it turned out that Ling'er woke up at some point, and had already walked out of the back room wearing a belly pocket, Lao Gao, with a small mouth and a pair of big eyes with tears, was looking at Mu Qing's mother and son pitifully.

Ling Hulan's heart softened suddenly, and said, "Good girl, my mother will also give you one." After that, I went into the bedroom, and after a while, I took out a light blue gem, and hung it around my neck, and said: "This thing is called Lanxia Jade, and when Niuniu opens her spirit, use spiritual power to stimulate it, and it can emit a layer of faint light around her body, so that my Niuniu will be more beautiful!"

This blue glow jade is also a low-level magic weapon, and its main ability is to emit a blue glow under the stimulation of spiritual power, making the whole person look more radiant, but there is no other function.

Ling'er held Lan Xiayu in her hand with satisfaction, looking at and touching, so unhappy.

Ling Hulan said: "Okay, Niuniu can go back to sleep now." ”

Ling'er agreed with satisfaction and went back to her room to sleep.

Under the oil lamp, Mu Qing's mother and son sat side by side, and began to talk about those legendary stories of cultivating immortals......

Mu Qing didn't tell about his adventure and enlightenment, first, he felt that an old-timer like the white-haired old man must not want his whereabouts to be known by others, and he could guess if he pretended to be unfathomable, and secondly, he hoped that he would suddenly surprise his father and mother when he cultivated for a long time in the future.

This night, Mu Qing ate and slept soundly, in his dream, he was already a great monk who had cultivated to the sky, turning over the river and the sea, flying away in the sky, father, mother, Ling'er, and grandfather, looked at him with great praise and happiness......

......

Early the next morning, Mu Qing was the first to get up, ran to Ling'er's house and dragged her up, and said, "Stinky Niuniu got up, Brother Qing will take you up the mountain today." ”

The sleepy-eyed bell yawned and said, "Go up the mountain, what are you doing up the mountain......?"

Mu Qing helped her pass the clothes, and said, "It's cold, the fur of the little beast is just right, I'm going to catch the purple cloud marten again and make a scarf for my mother." He said this, but he thought in his heart: he is about to leave home, although he has been enlightened, but this line of work is still full of dangers, and he can complete his wish to make a mink scarf for his mother before leaving, which can be regarded as a little filial piety.

"Catch it againβ€”you've been catching it for a few years, and that purple cloud marten has grown from so big to such a big one, I think you're still working in vain. As she spoke, Ling'er gestured with her hand.

Mu Qing urged: "This time it will definitely be done, go wash up, let's go!"

Under Mu Qing's supervision, the two packed up and said hello to Ling Hulan in the courtyard, Mu Qing stuffed a few pieces of rabbit meat into his arms, picked up the bell, and cheered, "Qingling Shuangxia, go up the mountain to hunt-" and walked towards the dense forest in the back mountain.

Mu Qing used to go to the back mountain before, and there were no fierce beasts on the mountain, so Ling Hulan was not worried, and said: "Remember to come back in the evening, my mother will make a hundred flowers and honey dew cakes and five-flavor crispy cakes." ”

The voice came from afar, and Mu Qing and the others had already run out of the small courtyard.

......

In the dense forest, two small heads sneaked out of a piece of dry grass, four eyes stared straight ahead, not far ahead, as far as the line of sight, there was a purple-black beast, looking left and right with both eyes, the tail was raised high, the hind legs were tight, and the vigilance was abnormal, it was the one that the two of them wanted to catch - the purple cloud marten.

"Okay, you little thing, I've been waiting for you for three hours, and I've finally waited for you!" One of the two little heads was Mu Qing, at this time he lowered his voice and leaned into Ling'er's ear and said: " Ling'er, I will suddenly jump out, reach out and grab it, if a blow misses, I will hit it with a stone in my other hand, if it is not hit, it will definitely run away, if it flees to your side, you will come out to scare it, it is stunned, I can keep up with it, if it flees to us, I will go directly to chase it, you have to follow me immediately, don't fall behind!"

"Hmm!" Ling'er nodded vigorously.

"Shh......h Don't nod, the bell on your head ......" the frightened Mu Qing hurriedly said.

Ling'er also found out that the bell almost leaked out of the two, and the pink little tongue spit out and made a grimace.

"Okay, ready, one, two, three!"

As soon as "three" was shouted, Mu Qing's figure jumped up and pounced straight towards the little mink ten zhang away. After he opened his spirit, although he had not yet cultivated, the strength of his physical body was much greater than before.

Eight zhang, seven zhang, six zhang......

Seeing that it was in front of the purple cloud mink, the little mink hesitated for a moment, and then jumped out to the side, its body was also fast, and when Mu Qing was still five zhang away from it, it had already jumped far away.

Mu Qing saw the purple cloud marten running to the side, and with a fierce force under his feet, he suddenly turned around, and ran diagonally in the direction of its advance, wanting to go to the front to block the way of the purple cloud marten.

The purple cloud marten was also very cunning, and the escape route seemed to have been designed a long time ago, as soon as Mu Qing turned around, it turned its head and ran in the opposite direction.

Mu Qing was a little embarrassed at this time, he had already used his best strength to turn in this direction just now, Ziyun Marten turned and fled, his body was floating in the air, unable to borrow strength, but Mu Qing still had a back hand, and a pebble the size of a pigeon's egg held in his right hand flew out with a "whoosh".

Mu Qing often used this method to hunt some small beasts, the technique was skillful, the head was also sufficient, and the stone castration was extremely fast, and it smashed straight towards the head of the purple cloud mink.

This purple cloud marten is really clever enough, the stone can be hit at a glance, but it is turning around again, but this time it is running in the direction of Mu Ling'er.

Mu Qing was overjoyed when she saw it, and shouted loudly: "Ling'er!!" At this time, her feet had already landed, and she stepped violently, chasing after the little mink.

Ling'er also kept an eye on the movement of the purple cloud marten, watching it rush towards her and stand up from the weeds violently......

But she was still a child after all, and when she stood up, she didn't know how to move, she just stretched out her palms in front of her.

The purple cloud marten was caught between the front and back, and suddenly lost its square inch, jumped up, and pounced towards Ling'er's face.

When Ling'er saw it, she was even more shocked, and she didn't know how to block it with her hands, but she just subconsciously put her arms horizontally in front of her, giving up a large part of her chest and abdomen to the enemy.

The purple cloud marten grinned, revealing two rows of sharp teeth, and bit at Ling'er's chest......
