"Brother Jiu is right, I think so too, but what does it mean that those silk threads are black?"

"It's not clear. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wuxi shook his head and replied.

"Why don't we let the fourth and fifth sisters try the exercises?" asked Wuyue with a wink.

"Before you touch the door, it's better not to involve them. "Wuxi is against it.

"Although this introductory exercise is ordinary, it is also very scarce in major cottages, so it is best not to spread it first, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Wuxi added.

"Counsel, and I'll go and see my fawn. Wuyue got up and left.

"Brother Jiu, tell me how this strange qi can be isolated?" asked Nineteen.

"This, I only know that the Great Protective Array of the Three Holy Cities can completely isolate the strange qi, just because it wants to isolate the strange qi, so it has been open for many years. For as long as I can remember, I have never heard of the closure of the Great Protective Array. It is said that some Tsukiji real people also have small magic circles that can isolate foreign qi. ”

In fact, these nineteens are also known, but they are just unwilling.

"Maybe the third brother has a way, the third brother is much older than us, he is well-informed, and he has been in the major cottages for many years, and when he returns from hunting, we will go to him and ask. "Wuxi comforted nineteen ways.

"That's all there is to it. ”

The two didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.

"It's more than half past this morning, and we're not going out hunting. Let's go out together and get some firewood and come back. No matter what, don't you have to live this day, do you say yes, nineteenth brother. Wuxi saw Nineteen's loss and comforted him.

"Okay. ”

The two of them carried firewood knives to find firewood, but did not mention it.

It was night, and the main house of the Ji family's small courtyard rarely lit a few tung oil lamps. Twelve men and women huddled together in front of the kang and whispered something about something.

At this time, a black-robed man holding a bronze mirror suddenly flashed on the top of the arrow tower on the southwest corner wall. The black-robed man was covered with a black scarf, and he was holding a palm-sized bronze mirror in his right hand. I saw that after quickly pinching a few tricks with his left hand, he pointed to the bronze mirror with his index finger, and spit out lightly in his mouth: "Show", the originally ordinary copper mirror instantly burst into light, became brighter, and showed an image, isn't this the scene of the main house in the small courtyard of the Ji family.

"That's it. The black-robed man muttered.

The black-robed man stared at the mirror scene for ten breaths, then put a little more bronze mirror in his left hand, and spit out the word "receive", and the bronze mirror instantly returned to its ordinary appearance, and the scene in the mirror disappeared.

The black-robed man put away the bronze mirror, and then glanced in the direction of the Ji family's small courtyard intentionally or unintentionally, and slowly disappeared his figure. The black-robed man came abruptly and went silently, without alarming the night watchman on the arrow tower at his feet.

This house is much larger than the room where Nineteen lived, especially the earthen kang against the wall is much larger, and it is said that the third brother and two brothers of the opposite sex built it together.

In the most difficult first year, the three of them ate, slept and hunted together, and two or three years later, the arrival of the fourth and fifth sisters of the Ji family ended the days of sleeping on the same kang. Yes, these two brothers of the opposite sex are the fourth brother-in-law Wu Tu and the fifth brother-in-law Qin Lao Liu.

At that time, there were few people and food consumption was not large, so there was a good life of three men hunting and two women taking care of the family. Otherwise, it would be difficult to support the children born by the two sisters.

In the years that followed, as the population increased, the small courtyard was slowly established, and although food became more and more scarce, the two brothers-in-law also insisted on not letting their women go out hunting, so as not to be contaminated with too much foreign qi.

There are three men sitting side by side on the side of the kang against the wall, and the dark face in the middle is Ji Laosan, it can be said that he is the founder of the Ji family's courtyard, and the de facto parent of the Ji family's courtyard. The short and fat man on the left hand is the fourth brother-in-law Wu Tu of the nineteenth, and the thin man with a horse face on the right hand is the fifth brother-in-law Qin Lao Liu.

"Listening to what the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth said, this exercise seems to be too easy to obtain. For thousands of years, the Three Holy Cities have strictly controlled the transmission of exercises. Qin Lao Liu said.

"Not really, not to mention far away, didn't Wu Mazi from nearby Wujiazhai get an exercise, and he also successfully cultivated, and he has the cultivation of the second layer of qi refining. Although the Wu family was tight-lipped about how to get the exercises, it could also be guessed that they were probably from the Three Holy Cities. Humpty Dumpty said.

"What the fourth brother-in-law said is true. Several voices chimed in.

"I just don't know how this Wu Mazi practiced successfully, according to the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth three people's experiments, it is not easy to practice smoothly. A voice said.

"Why don't you go out hunting tomorrow, and try to practice this exercise to see how it goes?" said the fifth sister next to the horse-faced man.

"No. The black-faced man in the middle said quickly.

This made the few people who wanted to echo swallow back the words that were almost in their mouths.

"Tomorrow, everyone will go out hunting as usual, and in the morning of the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth, we will accompany the fourth and fifth sisters to study the exercises in detail, and continue to go out to get firewood in the afternoon. Remember not to force it, just need the two of you to feel the situation and stop running the exercise immediately if you find something wrong. ”

"Obey the arrangement of the third brother. Everyone replied in unison.

"It's late at night, let's all go back and rest. Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen remained. ”

The crowd walked away.

The black-faced man squeaked and closed the door, turned around and extinguished the two tung oil lamps on the wall, returned to the kang and said, "Come, give me the exercises to observe." ”

"Okay, third brother. Wuxi replied, took out the booklet from his chest, and handed it to the black-faced man.

At tea time, the black-faced man had finished reading the booklet.

After a moment of silence, he said: "This exercise seems to be very simple and easy to learn, as if it was tailor-made for us Five Spirit Root people, which is a bit strange." ”

"Well, leave that alone, let me go into more detail and give it a try. ”

After a pillar of incense, the black-faced man recovered from his meditation.

"As you say. ”

"Dare to ask the third brother, are you familiar with this Wu Mazi?" asked Nineteen tentatively.

"Well, speaking of this Wu Mazi, I was still very familiar with it before, and I have had many cooperative hunting experiences. After he succeeded in cultivating the Fa, he didn't interact much. It is said that he can now use arrows to hunt down wild creatures through spells, and he is no longer in the company of us who use hunting bows. Even if I go to my home for advice, I probably won't pass on my experience. The black-faced man shook his head and said.

"There is no doubt about this, after all, the law cannot be passed on. Did anything unusual happen to this Wu Mazi before and after cultivating the Fa?" Nineteen asked again.

"Wu Mazi... Something unusual..."

"Well, yes, it seems like he hadn't worked with us for half a year before he was successful in his Fa cultivation, and he didn't work together every day before, but that was the longest interval in years. ”

"Anything else?"

"Well, after he succeeded in cultivating the Fa, the first time we met, I found that the kid's face was a lot whiter, and he used to have a big black face. ”

"Half a year, I must have been practicing the Fa for half a year. This face has turned white, maybe it is caused by not seeing sunlight for a long time. ”

Nineteen murmurs.

"Dare to ask the third brother, do you know that this Wujiazhai has a cellar or something. ”

"Speaking of this Wujiazhai, it is much older than the history of our Jijiazhai. Wujiazhai existed before the last beast tide, and successfully survived that beast tide. Maybe there are underground shelters. The black-faced man replied.

Nineteen seemed to grasp some key point, "That's right." ”

Wuyue asked anxiously, "What's right?"

"This Wu Mazi has been running around for a long time and has been basking in the sun, so he has always had a dark face before. When he obtained the exercises, he hid in an underground shelter and practiced for more than half a year. When he reappeared in front of people, his face turned white, which was caused by the long absence of sunlight. ”

"Combined with my observations of the evening gray fog, this is possible. As you may have noticed, the gray fog is barely visible in low-lying and windless places. But if there is no gray mist, it doesn't mean that there is no abnormal qi, it's just that the degree of thinness is different, otherwise the Three Holy Cities won't be able to open the city protection array all the time. The silk threads that we perceive when we practice should be transformed by strange qi. Maybe the deeper underground caverns can also be effective in isolating the foreign gas?"

"Brother Nineteen is so smart. Wuyue gave a thumbs up.

"It's not impossible. Wuxi also said.

"Well, judging from various circumstances, this is indeed possible. The black-faced man thought for a moment and replied.

"Are we going to dig an underground cave, then?" asked Wuyue.

"You can try it, but where is the best place to excavate?" Wuxi said.

"The purpose of our digging is mainly to isolate the foreign gas, we have to find a low place to excavate, we have to dig very deep, and we also consider the issue of secrecy. Nineteen said as he knocked on his head.

Wuyue's eyes rolled, "Hey, there's a nice place." ”

"Tell me whatever. Nineteen asked, and Wuyue and the black-faced man also turned their heads to look at Wuyue.

"Well, it's the well in the backyard. ”

"Well, it's a good place, and I dug this well myself, and it's more than five feet deep. After digging the spring, we built this well with stones. The black-faced man said thoughtfully.

"Without further ado, I'll go down to the well to-night and find you a good place to start working, for I know the dirt beneath it well. ”

The twelve members of the Ji family are in full swing to excavate the well.

Ten days later, at noon, there was no sunset, no moon, and nineteenth at the same time to the bottom of the well. I saw a hole five feet above the surface of the water that could only be passed through by one person. Nineteen and one horses took the lead in drilling, followed by Wuxi and Wuyue. The tunnel stretched diagonally downward, and the three of them walked a full six hundred steps forward to an underground hall. The hall is five feet long, more than eight feet wide, there is a door at the end of the hall, and there is a sound of running water behind the door. It turned out that digging here touched an underground river.

The three of them each found a place, adjusted their state, and tried to practice the exercises first.

After half a pillar of incense, Wuyue said in surprise: "It's successful, those hateful black silks didn't appear." ”

Wuxi and Nineteen are also happy.

The three of them practiced in the well until the evening, and then told the story of what they had gained at the meeting of the twelve in the evening.

After discussion, Ji Laosan finally decided that the twelve people in the small courtyard would still go out hunting to maintain the food source according to the previous group, and each group would practice one day of practice after going out for two days, taking turns to use the underground space. Among them, Ji Laosan, Wu Tu, and Qin Laoliu are still in one group, Wuyue, Wuxi, and Nineteen, the three youngest are still in one group, and the other four brothers and sisters are in one group. The fourth and fifth sisters take turns taking care of the housework, with one day of practice every two days, and the rest of the people have three days of one day to practice.

In this way, a month passed, and on this day it was the turn of the nineteenth group to practice. The three of them came here before dawn, and quickly settled down until noon. Wuyue ate the jerky and said happily: "Do you feel the spiritual power of the dantian?"

"Nope. The two replied in unison.

"Do you feel it?" asked Nineteen.

"Well, just a little bit. ”

Unexpectedly, the fourth and fifth sisters who had been practicing for the longest time among the twelve did not sense the dantian spiritual power first, but Wuyue, who did not have a lot of cultivation time, was the first to sense it, and sure enough, the five spirit roots were still slower than the four spirit roots.

"Can you be specific?" asked Nineteen, putting down the piece of meat.

"This trace of spiritual power is like something, like something in your hand, it can go wherever you command it to go.

I can now use my mind to move it around my body, but I can't go to many places,......"

After another month, everyone sensed the spiritual power in the dantian.

Now every night every day is no longer to discuss how to sense the aura around them, everyone has begun to discuss how to use the spiritual power in the body, the path to call, and where there are obstacles, where they can't go, and the most discussed recently is how to use the spiritual power of the dantian.

However, although this is a world of law popularization, this group of people are all outcasts. Before the age of fifteen, the Three Holy Cities only allowed everyone to read and write, to understand the structure of the human body in general, to teach some knowledge of acupuncture points, and to teach life skills such as using a hunting bow. As for how to use spiritual power, these are things that can only be learned by those who can stay in the Three Holy Cities after the enlightenment.

At another day's evening meeting, Nineteen put forward the idea he had been thinking about for a long time.

The first time I saw the use of spiritual power by Senior Yan, I reviewed it for everyone again. In particular, he focused on the scene where Yan seniors killed the wolves through a bonfire.

In Nineteen's understanding, fire is also something that exists in nature, and the things that popped out of Yan's predecessors' fingers at that time should be spiritual power, when these spiritual powers did not pass through the bonfire, Nineteen did not see anything develop, and after the spiritual power passed through the bonfire, there were chains of fire, which must be the manifestation of spiritual power. But the spiritual power in his body is too little now, and he can't force it out of his body, and after explaining his guess, he looks at Wuyue, the only one who can force spiritual power out of his body now.

Wuyue was silent, and after understanding the meaning of Nineteen, she came to a burning oil lamp surrounded by everyone, and started the exercises. With a 'poof' sound, the flame of the bean-sized lamp suddenly burst open, and a ball of fire the size of an adult's fist flashed away.

"Well, it worked. Wuyue said.
