Volume 1, Born Lonely and Cold Chapter 21, Unlucky Shen Cong

It was a palm-sized booklet, which looked very ordinary, and even looked extremely shabby, giving people the impression that no one would pick it up if it was thrown on the streets of Fancheng.

Xu Bing opened the booklet in his hand and looked at it, but Shen Cong on the side was not interested in it, because Shizun had already given it to him when he came last year, and he had read it a few times, but he didn't think it was interesting, so he didn't read it anymore, and the booklet at this time was probably thrown away by him for a long time. Seeing that Xu Bing read the booklet, he didn't talk to him, so he simply went to the grass in front of the cave and fell asleep.

Xu Bing didn't care about Shen Cong, but looked at the booklet in his hand with care. The first two pages of this booklet are to introduce the land under his feet, and Xu Bing only knew at this time that the land under his feet was actually a huge sphere named Lingchen Star. If you go in one direction, you will be able to circle the sphere and return to the place where you started if you have enough time to go around without dying.

Xu Bing was very amazed at what he saw in the booklet, and as he continued to look through it, he saw the division of some countries and regions on this land that the master had mentioned before, and then there were some introductions to the path of cultivation.

It is mentioned in the booklet that on this spiritual dust star, cultivation can be divided into seven realms, which are mortal body, dispelling void, accepting spirits, melting souls, divine revelation, slashing thoughts, and consulting immortals. Each of the great realms is divided into four smaller realms: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the Great Perfection, and the monks become stronger by absorbing the spiritual qi of the heavens and the earth.

The Five Elements Spirit Root was also briefly introduced in this booklet, which was similar to what the man from the Cloud Saint Sect had said before, but Xu Bing didn't see the Hidden Spirit Root that the master had said before.

After thinking for a while, Xu Bing probably understood that according to what the master said, this hidden spirit root was too rare, and even if he hadn't tried it a few times, even the master might not be able to find it, so it was normal that there was no record in this booklet.

At the end of the booklet is the method of cultivation, Xu Bing read it several times before he was sure that he was indeed not wrong, and this so-called cultivation method is a very special way of breathing.

He tried the method described in the booklet, and at first he felt a little uncomfortable breathing, but it was bearable, so he tried again and again.

In this mountain forest, time seems to have slowed down a lot, but Xu Bing doesn't have this feeling at all, at this moment he is immersed in that somewhat strange, but slowly becoming a little comfortable, as if he has forgotten the passage of time.

On the grass in front of the cave entrance at the top of the mountain, there were two figures, one was Shen Cong, who was still sleeping, and the other was Xu Bing, who was sitting cross-legged.

After about two hours, Xu Bing's originally sitting body moved, and his eyes opened. He looked at his body, stretched out his arms again, a smile on his face, and unconsciously whispered, "It turns out that this cultivation is not too difficult."

Originally, Xu Bing tried to meditate with the breathing method recorded in the booklet, but at first he felt a little uncomfortable, but after repeating it dozens of times, the uncomfortable feeling gradually disappeared, and then it became a feeling similar to a little numbness. This feeling made him feel comfortable, so he continued to try, and when he repeated it nearly three hundred times, he finally felt the feeling of spiritual energy entering the body as described in the booklet. It was the feeling of a cold breath seeping into his limbs and limbs along his mouth and nose, which made his whole person suddenly feel relaxed, and the fatigue that he had been running around for a long time was also swept away. Even when he stretched out his arm, he felt that his strength was a little stronger than before, and this was just the aura that had just entered the body, without any exercises, and without a realm.

Xu Bing glanced at Shen Cong, who was still asleep on the side, and couldn't help but admire this senior brother a little. He stood up, moved his hands and feet, and looked at the surrounding peaks, which seemed more silent at night, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

A few days ago, he was still performing the task of a killer in Fancheng, but now, he came to this immortal cultivation sect and became a disciple of the immortals. Even a year ago, I was told at the test of the Cloud Holy Sect that there were too few spiritual roots to cultivate, and in retrospect, it seemed that it was just yesterday.

Shaking his head, Xu Bing no longer thought about what happened before, and was about to go to the thatched hut on the top of the mountain to see if Shizun had returned, but before he could take a step, he heard a sound of breaking the air behind him. When he turned around, he saw his master coming into the air, and then landed beside the two of them.

Ma Yujian glanced at Xu Bing, didn't say anything, and moved his gaze to Shen Cong, who had not yet woken up, and immediately frowned.

Seeing this, Xu Bing knew that this unlucky senior brother would definitely be beaten again, so he hurriedly bent down and patted Shen Cong, wanting to wake him up. Who knew that Shen Cong not only didn't wake up, but instead reached out and opened Xu Bing's arm, turned over and fell asleep again. At the same time, he chirped a few times in his sleep, and said vaguely, "Get out, you guy, you must be going to grab Meimei with me, she is mine." Shen Cong said as he stretched out his hands at the same time to make a hug motion.

Unfortunately, after he turned around, he happened to face Ma Yujian, and at this time, his hands stretched out, just holding Ma Yujian's right leg in his arms, and even kept stroking, the expression on his face could be said to be more yin.

Seeing that this scene seemed to be beyond his control, Xu Bing simply didn't care about it, silently recited "rest in peace" in his heart, and quietly took a few steps back, gave up this place, and watched quietly on the side.

It has been more than ten breaths since Ma Yujian's arrival, although this time is not long, but it makes his brows furrow to the extent that he can trap mosquitoes.

Xu Bing saw on the side, the expression on Ma Yujian's face slowly became calmer, his brows were no longer wrinkled, and even a shallow smile rose at the corner of his mouth. However, this smile fell in Xu Bing's eyes, but there was no trace of gentleness, and at this time, he prayed again for Shen Cong, who was still happy in his sleep.

I saw Ma Yujian's right hand groping around his waist for a while, and a small jade bottle appeared in his hand, holding the jade bottle, his body slowly squatted down, and he pulled out the corks of the five bottles, and said softly, "Good apprentice, let you be comfortable and comfortable for the teacher." As he spoke, he poured the contents of the jade bottle into Shen Cong's neck.

And at the same time as Ma Yujian spoke, Shen Cong, who was asleep, actually replied with a "good" very smoothly. But soon, Shen Cong's expression in his sleep changed slightly, first his brows furrowed slightly, and then his body kept twisting, and his hands also let go of Ma Yujian's legs, constantly scratching his body.

After Ma Yujian finished pouring the contents of the jade bottle, he no longer paid attention to Shen Cong, but changed his smiling face, looked at Xu Bing on the side and said, "Good apprentice, let your senior brother rest here first, you don't have a cave today, go up with the teacher first, and spend the night in the thatched hall of the teacher."

Xu Bing didn't dare to say a word when he saw Shizun's face that was instantly full of smiles, just nodded, and followed Shizun towards the thatched hut on the top of the mountain.

Walking to the door of the thatched hut, Xu Bing noticed that there was a two-foot-long plaque hanging above the thatched hut, with the words "Ma Caotang" written on it. I suddenly felt a strangeness in my heart, and I wanted to laugh, but I didn't dare to attack in front of my master, so I had to hold back the smile.

Xu Bing could see at a glance that the word "horse" on the plaque was obviously added later, and the distance between the word "horse" and the word grass hall behind it appeared to be wider, and there were some traces of sword sharpening where the word "horse" was written. Obviously, what was written here was not originally a horse character, and there should be more than one character, but I don't know where the master found this dilapidated plaque, changed the word in front of it to a horse character, and hung it in front of his hut.

Xu Bing was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a scream like killing a pig behind him, and then the scream turned into a moan with some laughter and seemed to be mixed with pain. Although the voice was sharp and constantly changing, Xu Bing still heard the voice of his senior brother Shen Cong in an instant, and he didn't dare to ask Shizun, but just followed Shizun's steps and walked towards the grass hall.
