(Digression in this chapter: The guy who wants to cultivate immortals definitely doesn't just want to live forever)

Hu Xiao stared at the man in front of him boredly, looked at him from head to toe, and made sure that he was a man with no oil and water to fish, so he was in a hurry to send him away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info "Hey, young man" He put his hands behind his head, leaned on his back on the chair, nostrils towards the man, and said impatiently: "I really don't have any secret of cultivating immortals here. You'd better go quickly, don't bother me. ”

The young man frowned, his hands were clenched, and he said excitedly: "They all say that the boss is very shrewd and will never do loss-making business. You will never do anything good without benefits. So, I would like to ask you to do that. ”

After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of broken silver and put it on the table, although there were not many catties and taels, but it still made Hu Xiao's pupils have a millimeter of enlargement. When he was about to put away the broken silver, the young man said again: "Boss, I heard that your parents left after successfully cultivating immortals, so you should quickly give me the secret." ”

Hu Xiao's eyebrows jumped, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Since you are so sincere, then I have to tell you." And thou hast taken a pen and paper, and I will dictate thou hast written it down in detail. Remember, don't tell others about your practice, otherwise you'll lose all your efforts. ”

"Yes, yes. The young man nodded like a peck, hurriedly took a pen and paper and waited on the side.

"You must know that cultivating immortals is to give up the earthly body and obtain eternal life. Therefore, it is necessary to achieve the realm of ascending together with the body and mind. First of all, the tempering of the body, you have to go back to Bigu. The so-called Bigu is fasting. Surround yourself in an isolated environment with no one else to disturb you. Sitting cross-legged and not eating anything other than drinking water every day is ineffective. After seven days, you will feel that your whole body is fluttering as if you don't have to be contaminated with grains and have no hunger, and if you continue to stay, after 7749 days, you will become. ”

"What about the tempering of the heart, boss, when will the tempering of the mind begin?" said the young man anxiously.

Hu Xiao's whole body leaned under the table, not knowing what he was doing. The young man stretched his neck to look, but only saw a cockroach lying on the wall behind Hu Xiao, so he shouted: "Boss, it's not good, there is a cockroach on the wall of your house." ”

"Why, what are you talking nonsense. I love cleanliness so much, how can there be cockroaches in the house?" Hu Xiao took off the Buddhist scriptures that cushioned the foot of the table, tore off the epidermis, and looked back, there was indeed an insect on the wall, so he quickly pulled a piece of cloth and wrapped the insect in it, but he did not strangle it. He turned around again, threw the torn Buddhist scripture to him, and said coldly: "This is the tempering of the heart." When you are doing Bigu, you should keep reciting the contents of this book in your heart. If you can hold on to 7749 days, you will be done. ”

"Thank you boss, thank you boss. Without looking at it, the young man took the sutra and left happily.

After Hu Xiaomu sent him downstairs, he scolded a stupid person in his mouth, then stood up and stretched, and went downstairs.

Downstairs is a deserted restaurant, and few customers visit it all day. The owner of the restaurant was sleeping on the counter at this time. Hu Xiao walked over to him, then pulled him by the collar and stuffed the cloth ball in his hand into his mouth.

"Cough cough" The sleeping man made a choking sound, he rubbed his eyes, and said angrily: "It's you kid! ”

"Wake up, you bastard. I told you to clean up the store earlier. On the table, on the stools, and in the kitchen, there are dirty cockroaches crawling everywhere, and customers will only think that the owner of this shop is a cockroach, and the dishes they eat are also made by cockroaches, you fool. The cockroaches have run upstairs to my room!" Hu kicked his counter over.

"I can't be blamed for this, after all, I'm the only one left in the store. None of the guys were gone, and the mother-in-law ran away with someone. I'm just a piece of shit!" the store manager began to cry again with a handful of snot and tears about the bitter past.

"I think it's a bastard like you who should be cultivating immortals the most. If you cultivate immortals, there won't be a cockroach nest like you downstairs in my house, why should you be a bastard downstairs in my house!" Hu Xiao became angry, eager to smash everything in the store.

"Hu Xiao, don't do it. For the sake of both of us being idle people. Aren't we the same kind, why do you hate me so much? I'm just not much older than you. The store manager pretended to be pitiful.

Hu Xiao's eyes fell on his dirty stubble, his mouth full of big yellow teeth, and the vegetable soup stains on his burlap clothes, and he suddenly felt like he was about to vomit. Hurriedly jumped a few meters away from him and complained: "I look like a flower child all day long, no wonder your wife is running away with someone." As the old saying goes, a man stands at thirty. Look what you're doing. The whole one is a cockroach. ”

"yes. I don't have anything, only this one restaurant that my ancestors have passed down, but in my generation it has become like this. I'm really ashamed of my ancestors!" The store manager covered his face with his hands and cried.

"As for the store manager, I'm also doing a job that doesn't look like work. However, I am also different from you. Although the god stick sounds undecent, at least two fools can be tricked. That guy just now, I moved my mouth, and I got five taels of silver. I advise you, store manager, that you might as well sell this store as soon as possible and become a god like me. I'm not afraid you'll rob me of my business. Hu Xiao walked around his shop and found that there was nothing left except tables and benches. Finally, I saw a small jar of unopened wine in a corner, so I grabbed it and prepared to take it upstairs.

"Hey, Hu Xiao, the wine in that jar is broken. ”

"It doesn't matter. Manager, I kept it. ”

Hu Xiao has been in this town for some time. His so-called work is, as he himself said, a magic stick. To put it nicely, it's a fortune teller. Originally, this kind of work was done by the kind of old man who was about to die, but Hu Xiao was still a good young man, but he also did this kind of deception. Unlike other fortune tellers, Hu Xiao is not responsible for the theoretical part of divination, he is only responsible for the practical part of eliminating disasters and solving problems. But in fact, he doesn't know anything, he can just occasionally play a bit of a scoundrel and take something from someone else.

Originally, a man of his age should be busy participating in the imperial examination to gain fame. However, the way of the world has long since changed, and since that eunuch took control of the government, the court and the court have been in a terrible mess, the law has been ignored, and the power has been overwhelmed. Almost all the loyal ministers were eradicated overnight, and the world was ruined by the demons and monsters led by Wei Zhongxian. Truth and justice are all but gone in this world. For aspiring young people, studying to gain fame has also become a utopia, because even the imperial examination has become a place where money and power are rampant. In short, everything is extremely bad.

The common people avoided offending the government or the wealthy, because in such an era, once they offended these people without money and power, it meant death. Living has become the greatest wish of the people. Although Hu Xiao is not a local, he just arrived in the town a year ago. However, no one noticed his existence at all, and no one cared what he had done before.

He's like a real wretch, doing nothing all day, sometimes playing scoundrels. Originally, he might have been like other gods and sticks until the day he died. However, the lies he casually talked about that day would bring him unexpected trouble in the future.
