In the following days, Li Xuan spent every night in the cultivation of Xuanhuang Merit. He began to practice according to the practice route of the foundation building chapter, and he had to travel for 12 weeks each time. Although I didn't feel the progress of the exercises, my energy was always very strong, and my efficiency was very high, whether it was doing farm work or fishing in the river.

One day, Li Xuan went up the mountain to herd cattle. He's an active person, and he can't stay anywhere. Spread the cow and let it graze freely, and wander up the hillside by itself.

Suddenly, he heard the crow of a pheasant in front of him. He crept forward, skirted a small grove of trees, and found a fat pheasant looking down for food. It is a male pheasant with gorgeous feathers, brass-colored on the top of his head, whitish eyebrow lines on both sides, black throat and nape of the neck, and a bright purple-green neck with a distinct white neck ring. The back is golden yellow in the front, maroon red in the back, and olive green in the back, all with black and white markings. The tail feathers of this pheasant are particularly long and beautiful. According to Li Xuan's estimates, this pheasant weighs 3 catties.

Li Xuan held his breath and slowly approached forward. When he was still more than 20 meters away, because he was staring at the pheasant and did not pay attention to his feet, he stepped on a dead branch and made a "pop" sound.

The pheasant was very alert, and as he turned his head and ran forward, his wings began to flicker. "Not good!" As soon as the branch sounded, Li Xuan knew that the pheasant was going to escape. He rushed forward with a single lunge, catching up with the pheasant in a few ups and downs.

At this time, the pheasant flew more than a meter high. Li Xuan jumped forward and grabbed the pheasant's wings with one hand. Although the pheasant was still struggling, how could it be possible to escape from his palm again.

When he returned home at noon, his parents felt very strange. "How did you catch such a big pheasant? Did you pick it up from someone else's clip? If so, give it back to someone else." Li Xuan's father is very upright and never takes advantage of others.

"I caught it empty-handed, and you see, there is no wound on this pheasant. ”

Although his parents didn't believe it, the pheasant had been caught, so it was better to stew it and eat it. So, the whole family had a good meal.

Since then, Li Xuan has been responsible for the work of herding cattle at home. On the mountain, Li Xuan's ears are very smart, and he can hear the sound clearly from hundreds of meters away. After discovering a wild object, he will quietly approach, as long as he is allowed to get close to within thirty or forty meters, he can directly run over and catch it, through the mountains and streams, as if walking on the ground, basically no wild thing can escape his palm.

Catching wild animals is naturally indispensable to Li Xuan's cousin and loyal follower Song Zhong. Although he couldn't catch up with the wild things, he was very active in carrying it after Li Xuan caught it, and our Song Zhong classmate was the most willing to eat meat.

Every time he went up the mountain, Li Xuan could bring some game back to his family, either pheasants or hares, and even once Li Xuan caught a roe deer alive and came back. And Song Zhong eats and drinks, and sometimes takes some more at home.

Because there was too much game, the family couldn't eat it, so Li Xuan also sent some game to Zhao Bing's family. Zhao Bing's father is a teacher at school and Li Xuan's homeroom teacher, who is diametrically opposed to Zhao Bing's personality, is very enthusiastic, and often helps students with free make-up classes. Although Li Xuan is a little naughty, he is very upright and is deeply liked by Mr. Zhao.

Li Xuan came to deliver game, and Mr. Zhao and Aunt Zhao were very happy. But Zhao Bing was not very happy: "You always send meat to my family to eat, and you make me fat." ”

Li Xuan just smirked. "Not fat, not fat at all. He turned around and ran home.

Since Li Xuan rescued Zhao Bing once in the river, Zhao Bing is no longer as cold to Li Xuan as before, and sometimes he can say a few words to Li Xuan. This made Li Xuan a little flattered. Sometimes he even thinks beautifully, "This Zhao Bing won't promise me because I am a hero to save the beauty, right?"

Time passed slowly. Cultivating the exercises is a rather boring process. After all, a child's patience is limited. After cultivating for a few more days, I felt that the golden air flow was still so thick. It is estimated that the exercises have not made much progress, and Li Xuan unconsciously relaxed a little.

Sometimes Li Xuan thought that although this exercise was powerful, how long would it take to practice it! By the time he was in the fourth grade, he had already beaten the whole school without an opponent. Now he is much more agile and stronger than before, and it is estimated that three or five young men are no match for him. Besides, it is not really necessary to fight with others by yourself, even if you have practiced the Xuanhuang merit technique, it may not be of much use. Don't practice and practice, train yourself to be a white-bearded old man.

Due to his young age, Li Xuan didn't have much idea about becoming an immortal and attaining immortality. In particular, when the exercises mentioned understanding and chance, he didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't have any motivation or direction in cultivation at all.

That night, Li Xuan decided to give up cultivation and go to bed early. However, this non-cultivation, the dream that had not appeared for a few days reappeared.

Li Xuan came to this gray space again. The pedestal of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda was still floating in the center of this space, slowly rotating, and the flickering light on it seemed to be a little thicker than before.

After these days of cultivation, Li Xuan somewhat understood that this space was his own upper dantian "Mud Pill Palace". In other words, I don't know when, the pedestal of this Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda ran into his head. Li Xuan sometimes wondered, "Why didn't the head explode when such a big thing ran into the head, and I didn't even feel uncomfortable at all." ”

Li Xuan once again stretched out his hand to the base of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda. When the hand touched the base of the tower, it didn't happen again. Taji lay quietly on Li Xuan's hand, still warm as jade, and felt very comfortable.

He took Taki in his hand and played with it. Suddenly, he noticed that the base of the tower was a little different from the original. The size has not changed, but the color has become darker. In particular, the top of the base of the tower is no longer flat, but has a small protrusion, as if a small section of wall has been built on a flat ground.

This tower base has been following Li Xuan for more than ten years, and it is clear that both sides are flat. But now it's a little weird to suddenly come here.

"What's going on?" Li Xuan scratched his head. He touched the small protrusion again, and pinched and shook it with his fingers, but it didn't move, and it felt like it was one, as if it had been like this.

"It must have grown in the past few days." Li Xuan is very sure. He thought carefully about what had happened in the past few days. Except for the fact that Zhao Bing fell into the water and was rescued by himself, nothing special really happened.

When I saw this tower base again, it was the night when Zhao Bing fell into the water. Could it be that saving people produces merit and activates this tower base?

"It is certain that doing good deeds will accumulate merit and promote the growth of the pagoda. ”

"That's right", Li Xuan remembered that his grandfather and father had told him to be a good person and be kind to others. In particular, there is another sentence, "Saving a life, the merit is immeasurable, and it is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter."

"It turns out that saving people's lives will produce merit!" "I practice the Xuanhuang merit technique, and with merit, isn't it faster to practice this skill." Also, isn't Futu just a tower? My baby brand is the pedestal of the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth. Saving people's lives and winning the floating slaughter is this principle.

After understanding this truth, Li Xuan was very happy. "I finally found a shortcut to practice. From now on, as long as you can save a few more people, won't the merit come, and the pagoda will grow higher and higher. Li Xuan couldn't help but laugh.
