Introduction Chapter 26: Ambush
Because Dong Xiaoping's room only had one bed, Dongfang Yan could only sleep on the floor wrapped in an old quilt.
Dongfang Yan has already rested, but Dong Xiaoping is not in a hurry to sleep, he only needs to sleep in the early morning. He continued to ponder the way to open the spiritual root, looking at the book for a while, and thinking with his chin held up for a while.
After studying this matter thoroughly, I found that it is essentially a matter of probability, just like buying a lottery ticket, no matter how you analyze the data and analyze the fortune, in the end it is luck. If you are lucky, you will hit the jackpot the first time you buy, and if you are unlucky, you will not win the jackpot for the rest of your life, but in general, the more you buy, the more likely you are to win.
As for the induction exercises, they should still be useful, but all the induction exercises are blind people touching the elephant, and there is no systematic theory, so some people are suitable for this kind of exercise, and some people are suitable for that. So it's best to try as many exercises as possible, but it's more expensive, because the paper quality in this world is poor, books depreciate quickly, and you need to make up more money for old books for new ones.
In addition, sufficient aura can also greatly improve the success rate, but this aspect is much more expensive than buying books, not only mortals, but even many ordinary immortal cultivators can hardly bear it.
Dong Xiaoping suddenly thought, doesn't he have time to control, this may be the shortcut he can take, but there is no aura and no elixir at this time, only tomorrow he will go to the place that Dongfang Yan said and try again.
Thinking about it, Dongfang Yan actually got up, looking at the sky, it was not yet four o'clock in the morning.
Dongfang Yan saw that Dong Xiaoping was still sitting at the table, and said strangely: "Haven't you slept yet? ”
Dong Xiaoping said casually: "Oh, I can't sleep, just make up for it tomorrow afternoon." ”
Then taking advantage of Dongfang Yan's inattention, he secretly lay on the table and turned on the time to pause and sleep.
After going downstairs, Dongfang Yan took Dong Xiaoping to a small dock in the middle of nowhere, where there was a small boat.
It was such an early day, and there were already quite a few people sitting on that boat.
"Isn't it in the mountains? How did you come here to take a boat?"
"Haha, it's indeed on the mountain, you'll know in a moment. ”
Both of them also got on the boat, and in a short time, people came on board one after another, and it was soon full.
Most of these people are teenagers like Dongfang Yan and Dong Xiaoping, and a few of them are still saying hello and talking, and they seem to know each other. The content of listening to their conversation is also induction, spiritual root, and the like.
But no one knew Dongfang Yan, Dongfang Yan said that since he lived in the courtyard of the cemetery, he didn't go here again. When it comes to the destination, Dongfang Yan has a mysterious face, and he will know it when he gets to the place.
As soon as the boat was full, it set sail and sailed on the lake by the moonlight.
"It's here. More than an hour later, one person suddenly said.
Dong Xiaoping was stunned when he heard this, this is still the center of the lake, and there is water everywhere. Following the direction of Dongfang Yan's hand, he found that there was a tall black shadow that was suspected to be a mountain peak.
When the boat approached, it was indeed a mountain standing in the middle of the lake, very high and very steep, like a turnip stuck upside down in the water.
This peak has been seen from afar by the lake before, but it is not as shocking as it is seen up close, its base is completely vertical, and the mountain is basically made of hard stones.
What are you doing here, is it to practice rock climbing?
The boat they were on was not the first to arrive, and not far away they could faintly see another small boat making a U-turn, and the boat was empty.
Directly above the boat, a figure swayed faintly on the cliff.
It's really rock climbing!
The boatman leaned the boat against the stone wall, paid the fare one by one, and then carefully stepped on the bow of the boat to climb the stone wall of the mountain, climbing slowly with one hand and one foot.
Dongfang Yan climbed first, and Dong Xiaoping followed.
Fortunately, the stone wall is very hard, so you don't have to worry about collapsing, and the shape is also easy to grasp and step on, and it is generally easy to climb. But after all, it's not a smooth road, and there are still some challenges.
Dong Xiaoping was careless, his right foot was not stepped on and almost fell directly, which scared the boss.
Dongfang Yan, who was climbing next to him, laughed and said, "Brother Dong, when you fall, remember to kick on the stone wall, so that you will stay away from the mountain wall, so as not to be injured by the stone." ”
"Do you fall so often? ”
"Depending on how you climb, if you climb slowly, you probably won't fall, and if you climb fast, you will easily fall. ”
"Isn't it dangerous to fall?"
"If you don't climb high, it's nothing, you can come out of the water and continue to climb, if it's too high, it's more dangerous, and many people have already lost their lives here, so everyone climbs carefully, but not too slowly, otherwise it's a wasted effort." ”
"That is, who is getting to the top of the mountain before everybody?"
"Almost, but as long as you make it to the top 30. ”
Dong Xiaoping was strange, he only saw two boats of people in total, and there were only more than ten of them, but he immediately found that there were two or three more boats under the peak.
At this time, there was a "plop", and there was a splash on the water, and it seemed that an unlucky ghost had fallen.
There was a small boat disembarking near the splash, and it was estimated that he was taken aback, and the boatman immediately steered the boat to a safe place.
It was almost half past five in the morning, and the sky was already brightening.
If you only rely on the moonlight, you can't climb.
Dong Xiaoping didn't want to fall, so he gathered his mind, grabbed the edge of a stone wall with his right hand, pulled up his body hard, and stepped on it with his left foot, carefully continuing to climb.
Some people climb slowly, some people climb fast, it's their own choice, some people would rather run for nothing than the risk of falling, and some people would rather risk falling than run in vain.
For Dong Xiaoping, of course, he would rather run for nothing than fall. So he asked Dongfang Yan to climb first without waiting for him, and he himself followed slowly behind.
By the time he reached the top of the mountain, the sun was halfway out.
At the top of the mountain is a platform neatly paved with stone bricks, surrounded by stone railings. One of the very special things about this platform is that there is no road leading to it at all, which means that you can only climb up to it like they do.
Or fly up, after all, this is the world of Xianxia.
At this time, there are already many people on the platform.
The crowd was divided into two groups, one stayed at the edge of the platform, resting or talking on the stone railing with regretful faces, and the other scattered in the center of the platform, all facing the sun and sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed.
There is a magic circle with a diameter of about one meter under each person who sits on the exercise, I don't know if it is an illusion, the morning glow sprinkles on it as if some water vapor is produced.
The number of such formations is limited, and if you count carefully, there are exactly thirty.
From this point of view, the people who sit and perform the exercises are the top 30, and the rest of the people have no ranking, and the rewards for the top 30 are these magic circles.
Among them, there is also Dongfang Yan who occupies a magic circle.
After Dongfang Yan opened his eyes, he saw Dong Xiaoping at once, and hurriedly waved at him with a smile.
After Dong Xiaoping approached, he said: "Haha, I have a magic circle, you come and try your luck, this aura concentration is more than one or twenty times higher than that in the cemetery." Come on, you have to hurry. ”
Dong Xiaoping exclaimed: "So much!"
Dongfang Yan moved out of the way and let Dong Xiaoping sit on it.
Dong Xiaoping immediately closed his eyes and ran the exercises on the "Tianhe Induction Sutra".
Of course, I still can't find anything, it's not strange to find it, it's strange to find it.
In terms of feeling, places with aura and places without aura are actually exactly the same, but everyone knows that the probability of inspiration in places with aura is much more, and the concentration of aura here is one or twenty times that of the cemetery, and the probability of inspiration is also one or twenty times that of the cemetery.
Dong Xiaoping is going to try a special method today, slowing down time to find inspiration.
He immediately made the world time extremely slow, a hundred times the original speed, and all the sensations were almost frozen, like a rushing water that suddenly turned into thick honey, flowing very slowly.
He uses his consciousness to constantly swim in the river of sensations, trying to discover a sixth sense that does not belong to the five senses - inspiration.
In this way, he is equivalent to doing a second in a hundred seconds, and he will be a hundred times more careful than ordinary people, and if he has an inspiration, he will definitely be able to capture it, and he can basically do it without missing anything.
Therefore, he will be a hundred times more likely to capture inspiration than ordinary people!
Of course, this requires a lot of patience, and Dong Xiaoping, who is used to time control, has long been used to the loneliness and loneliness brought about by this time difference.
A hundred times is already the limit, a hundred times the time slowdown is enough, there is no point in continuing to slow down time.
But even so, you need to be inspired, and if you don't have it, it's useless to be careful.
Dong Xiaoping ran in the world time for about seven or eight minutes, but in the world of consciousness, it seemed like he stayed all day.
And didn't find inspiration.
The probability of a hundred times is quite high, plus since he has a spiritual root germ, it means that his spiritual sense is not particularly weak, and I don't know how many times the probability is more.
It can be seen how low this winning rate is, and if you want to win, you can only use more time to accumulate.
However, Dong Xiaoping is not in a hurry, who would expect to be able to open the spiritual root in less than ten minutes?
Try it again next time.
Seeing Dong Xiaoping open his eyes, Dongfang Yan said: "It's normal not to feel the difference, but don't worry, it's indeed easier to generate inspiration here." ”
Dong Xiaoping nodded and said: "Just look at the scenery here, it does look like a fairyland." ”
He also said: "This is the position you occupy, give it back to you, tomorrow I will climb faster, and strive to grab a position." ”
Dong Xiaoping got up and gave up his position to Dongfang Yan again.
Dongfang Yan didn't refuse, and sat cross-legged again to continue practicing.
He hadn't practiced for long when the crowd suddenly buzzed.
Dong Xiaoping looked up and saw that something appeared in the sky not far away, flying towards him.
The thing was like an awl, made of stone and earth, about five meters in diameter, and it was full of people, and it was a little crowded.
This is the magic weapon of this world? It looks rustic.
Dong Xiaoping heard the people around him say "Flying Island", which should be the name of this thing.
"Leave the field as fast as you can. A cold female voice came from the flying island, even if the flying island was still a few hundred meters away from here, the voice was clearly visible.
