"Hand over the valuable things yourself, or ......," Zhang Laosan said to him viciously.

"I ...... I don't have anything of value. The little boy said tremblingly.

"Hurry up, who let you eat white food!" Dongfang Yan kicked him and said impatiently.

The little boy had no choice but to touch it in his arms for a long time, and found a cloth bag. In the eyes of everyone attentively, it gradually unraveled, but it turned out to be several large cakes!

"That's all I have, and all the money buys for bread. ”

Zhang Laosan was amused, "You bought so many cakes, are you going to stay with us for a few days?"

The young man bowed his head.

Zhang Laosan said lightly: "What are the rules for eating white food and being caught, you know, right? Since you don't have money, you can say it yourself......

The little boy trembled, and hurriedly fell to the ground and begged, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I will never dare next time." Please don't spare me, my mother is sick and can't get out of bed, and she is waiting for me to make money to buy medicine. ”

Dongfang Yan said: "Then we deserve to be eaten by you for nothing? Don't we need money? I have to teach you a lesson today." ”

Zhang Laosan said: "Your mother's serious illness is her life, since you eat white food, you must know the consequences of eating white food." In this way, you can leave two thumbs today, and although you can't go fast in the future, you can honestly find a job to support your family. ”

The young man's face was very pale, but he said nothing, as if he knew that this was the best result for him today.

Huang Qing, who had been watching coldly, said at this time: "Let him go, he shouldn't dare in the future, and we won't do any good to abolish him." ”

Dongfang Yan shook his head, "There is a way to repay grievances with straightforwardness and repay virtue with virtue." If you don't punish it well, then what's the matter? ”

Zhang Laosan also said curiously: "Huang Qing, what's wrong with you today? Do you know what this person wants to do? He wants to steal the boiling blood grass that we risked our lives to pick! Don't you teach this kind of white food a lesson? Are you not angry?"

The little boy didn't expect that there were still people in this group to help him speak, and his heart was raised again for a while.

Dong Xiaoping is a newcomer, and many of the rules are not very clear, so he doesn't want to speak now.

Huang Qing did not answer immediately, but was silent for a while before speaking.

"When I was about his age, my mother was also seriously ill, and I asked for medical advice everywhere, but the doctor said that he was terminally ill and could not be cured unless he used immortal medicine. But the elixir is affordable for mortals, so I had to go around with gangs to make this desperate money, but no one wanted a girl of eleven or twelve years old. ”

"I was told that I could go and eat white food with them, but I didn't dare, so I could only watch my mother die. ”

"Later, my sister also got sick, and the doctor said that she would only live for a month, and that I was going to lose my last loved one. This time I couldn't help it, I couldn't be cowardly anymore, so I bought a knife and made desperate money. ”

"Now, my sister has lived for another two years. So sometimes I wonder if I could go back to the way things were, should I go and eat white food?"

When everyone heard her tell her story, they couldn't help but be a little moved.

Huang Qing said again: "But it's really wrong to eat white food, in this way, I will share one less boiling blood grass to make amends for him this time, what do you think." ”

Zhang Laosan sighed and said, "Hey, why bother. ”

Dongfang Yan said: "Okay, since everyone has their own opinions, then they can only follow the old rules, Huang Qing, everyone takes a stand." Since Huang Qing is willing to punish him on his behalf, I agree!"

Zhang Laosan immediately said: "There is a debtor who is wronged, I am against it!"

At this time, all eyes were on Dong Xiaoping.

Dong Xiaoping felt that it was reasonable to agree and object, but this young man was only a teenager, and it was a bit cruel to cut off his big thumb, so he said: "I agree." ”

The young man was ecstatic, and bowed down to everyone.

When it was Huang Qing's turn, he hesitated and said, "Excuse me...... My name is Lin Jinshi, what is your name, I will return you a boiling blood grass in the future. ”

Huang Qing said, "Okay, my name is Huang Qing, count me as borrowing you." ”

Lin Jinshi bowed again before getting up to leave.

Dongfang Yan scolded: "Don't worry, there is still your big cake!"

Hearing this, Lin Jinshi hurriedly turned around and picked up his cloth bag and flatbread, and left again.

After Lin Jinshi left, the four of them were not in a hurry to leave, they had walked a lot since they set off, and they should take a break, so everyone took out the dry food kettle and sat down to rest.

Dong Xiaoping asked casually, "Sister Huang Qing, is your sister sick now?"

Huang Qing shook his head and said, "Her illness is not good at breaking the roots, so she can only say that she is living with some cheap elixir." ”

Dong Xiaoping sighed and said, "It seems that those who come out to make desperate money have a hard time. ”

"Haha. Zhang Laosan laughed, "I'm not." ”

Dongfang Yan said: "Brother Zhang doesn't have many problems, but he is lustful, and every time he gets a lot of money, he spends it on women." I have already taken five wives at home, and it's not enough, so I don't know what it means to run to the kiln!"

Zhang Laosan smiled lewdly: "Let you go with Lao Tzu to experience the experience, and you don't go, ask me what I mean at this time." Lao Tzu has never read a book, how can I describe it, anyway, there are white, black, and red......"

Huang Qing took a sip, "It's disgusting!"

Zhang Laosan said: "Huang Poniang, you know a fart! Lao Tzu is blessed!"

Huang Qing sneered, "Idiot. Why do you think your wives are willing to marry you, it's not that they know that you are doing this kind of mountain-hunting business, and you will die sooner or later, and it's not because you want your ransom money! When you die, they will marry whoever they want!"

Zhang Laosan said: "Fart!"

Dongfang Yan said: "Brother Zhang, the so-called everything is inferior, only reading is high, you might as well save your money and buy some books on cultivation, maybe one day the spiritual root will be opened, and the sparrow will fly on the branch and become a phoenix!"

Zhang Laosan said: "Haha, Lao Tzu is twenty-eight years old this year, and he still has a fart spiritual root, you don't want to think about it!"

Dongfang Yan said: "Who said that twenty-eight can't open the spiritual root! Last time I saw a copy of the "Canghuang Induction Sutra" in the Ye Family Bookstore, this book focuses on strengthening the body and expanding the acupoints, which is most suitable for people from eighteen to thirty-eight to practice. ”

Zhang Laosan said: "You are stupid, those are all deceptive things, specially deceiving you people who are obsessed with seeking immortals, if you don't say that the age limit is more relaxed, give you a little hope, will you be willing to pay for it? ”

Dongfang Yan said: "Brother Zhang, that's your ignorance and nonsense, "Qingbo Zhi" clearly records a person named Tian Fu, who opened the spiritual root at the age of fifty-seven, and it was a sensation at that time. ”

Huang Qing interjected and said, "Maybe people have already had a spiritual root, but they didn't check it out before." ”

Dongfang Yan said: "Impossible, his father is a monk, and he will definitely show him the spiritual root every year, even if his realm is not enough, it will be okay to let others see it if he gives some money." ”

Huang Qingdao: "That's not necessarily, some monks don't talk about blood kinship. In short, my sister advises you not to invest all your money in the fairy road. The immortal road is slim, and we can't cultivate immortals, so we still have to live our lives, right?"

Dongfang Yan said: "If you don't cultivate immortals, you will live in vain." A mortal, even if you live to be a hundred years old, you will eventually become loess, although the immortal road is difficult, but please give it a try!"

These three people are basically not talking to speculation.

Dong Xiaoping was very interested in the book of Kai Ling Gen, so he asked Dongfang Yan: "Brother Dongfang, I am also interested in Kai Ling Gen, I don't know how those books you said are cultivated, can only those who don't have Ling Gen cultivate?"

Dongfang Yan became interested when he heard this, and said: "It's not a real cultivation, it can only be said to be a cultivation, and its purpose is to open the spiritual root." Spiritual RootsSpiritual Roots Only when they have spiritual roots can mortals grow into spiritual roots. A person with talent is born with the automatic absorption of the aura of heaven and earth and grows into a spiritual root. And ordinary people, it is difficult to absorb spiritual energy when qi and blood are blocked, and this is especially true after growing up. If you can't absorb the aura, you won't have the spiritual root, and if you don't have the spiritual root, you can't absorb the aura, which is simply an unsolvable problem of the chicken before the egg. ”

Isn't this just an endless loop?

Dong Xiaoping said: "Then what should I do?"

Dongfang Yan said: "Therefore, in order to solve this problem, people of insight of all generations have proposed various cultivation methods and written countless books. These exercises, which are independent of the monk's exercises, are generally referred to as induction exercises. Among them, the main genres are celestial and human induction flow, human pole induction flow, dream induction flow and so on. However, no matter what kind of school it is, its core is to let the cultivator no longer passively absorb the aura between heaven and earth, but take the initiative to sense the aura, as long as he senses even a trace of aura, the problem of chicken and egg before egg can be solved immediately!"

Dong Xiaoping said: "I understand, that is, in fact, to open the spiritual root, it is difficult to induce the spiritual energy for the first time. ”

Dongfang Yan clapped his hands and said: "Exactly! This is the difference between immortals and mortals! I recommend you to buy a copy of the "Selfless Chaos Induction Sutra", which is written by a monk of the Holy Realm, and I have been practicing it for three months now, and I have gained a lot!"

At this time, Zhang Laosan said: "Okay! Don't talk about those broken books, when you are rested, hurry up and pick boiling blood grass!"

Sunset.

"Huang Poniang, we are unlucky enough today, we have been looking for so long, and we haven't picked a single plant. ”

"Zhang Laosan, can you be patient, don't miss the boiling blood grass and don't know!"

At this time, Dongfang Yan shouted: "Haha! There is a plant here, which looks quite old." ”

Hearing this, several other people hurriedly ran over.

In a patch of green grass, there is one grass that is particularly noticeable because it is red. It grows delicately, with thin leaves and a thin stem, and a small ball growing on the tip of the stem.

"Hehe, the color is quite dark, I'm afraid it's been forty days, I'll pick it." Zhang Laosan took out a very small shovel from his pocket, carefully shoveled it up, and put it in a leather bag.

Dong Xiaoping couldn't help but ask, "Is it very old in more than forty days?"

Dongfang Yan said: "More than forty days are not old, some talents have been picked up in a few days. ”

Dong Xiaoping said curiously: "Spiritual change?"

Dongfang Yan replied: "Oh, the spiritual transformation is an ordinary grass planting, absorbing the spiritual energy in the mountains, and changing into a spiritual grass. Boiling blood grass is the result of these bitter grasses. Dongfang Yan pointed to the grass where the boiling blood grass grew, "Don't believe you, are these grasses the same as the boiling blood grass except for the color?"

Dong Xiaoping patted his head, "Oh! I thought the spirit grass grew directly!"

Dongfang Yan said with a smile: "If it is not changed, then how can this strain reproduce?" In fact, to put it bluntly, we mortals open spiritual roots, how can it not be a kind of spiritual transformation. There is a way, everything in the world, if there is a spirit, it will change!"

Seems to make sense!
