Chapter 2 The passionate life of the Lu family

"Stunned boy, here. As soon as Zhang Xiaosheng walked to the kitchen, he heard Lao Wang's rough voice.

Lao Wang is the cook of the Lu family, and he has been in the Lu family for more than 60 years, so he can be described as the old man of the Lu family. Not only is the food second to none in the Lu family, but he is also kind and easy-going, coupled with his short and chubby figure, he always has a big belly, with a natural sense of joy unique to fat people, and often can make everyone laugh with a word, so he is very respected by everyone.

"Wang Fatzi, are you jealous that I am so handsome and chic, please call me Xiaosheng" After saying that, he took two steps quite pretendedly. Zhang Xiaosheng's funny appearance immediately caused the people around him to laugh.

Zhang Xiaosheng originally had no name, and the children in the village usually asked literate people to give a name when they were officially adults at the age of eighteen, and Zhang Xiaosheng's parents died when he was very young, so the name matter has been delayed like this.

On the way to Lufu, Zhang Xiaosheng was first shocked by Huang Lao's flying shuttle; after coming to Lufu, the huge courtyard was full of rockeries and pavilions, waterfalls and flowing springs, and there were more tortuous paths, and a series of pavilions. So everyone gave him the nickname "stunned boy".

Later, when Lu Gongzi heard about this, he really couldn't cry or laugh, and said: "How can a scholar who is a scholar of this son have such an uneducated name, this son will call you the shots, and he will be called Zhang Xiaosheng in the future, Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng, it is still quite cultured, hahaha......"

So, Zhang Xiaosheng has this name, but in private, everyone still often calls him "Leng Boy". Zhang Xiaosheng knew that everyone was just joking with him, and there was no malice, so he was not annoyed, just like he called Lao Wang "Wang Fatzi", which made everyone closer.

"Lao Wang, come to a big bowl of noodles and add more soup!" Zhang Xiaosheng sat on the table with a big grin and shouted to Lao Wang.

That appearance has nothing to do with "Xiaosheng", and suddenly caused everyone to laugh again.

"Here, a big bowl of hot noodles!Alas, I eat noodles every day, and I am not afraid of turning into noodles!" Lao Wang scolded with a smile, skillfully took a bowl of noodles, sent his arms forward, a blue light faintly flashed in the palm of his hand, and saw a bowl of noodles flying towards Zhang Xiaosheng's table, turning in the air beautifully, and falling steadily on the table, the soup noodles were stable, and no drop was spilled.

"Lao Wang, your skills have improved recently!" a small guy next to him cheered.

This little guy's surname is Wang, his name is Qingzhu, and he is also a living treasure, smiling all day long.

The Lu family, as a famous family in the imperial capital of the Huoyan Empire, is a scholarly family that has been inherited for a hundred years, and all the children of the Lu family are gentle and elegant children after they go out, and they enjoy a good reputation in the imperial capital.

All the servants who enter the Lu family, regardless of their original names, will be given a rather bookish name by the Lu family to highlight the tradition of the Lu family's scholarly family.

Just like the people at the table next to him, Zheng Qingyun, Zhou Wenli, Zhu Wenle, and Qin Lan. There is also Lao Wang's little apprentice, Jiang Piaoxue.

"Xiao Sheng, how many levels of cultivation have you reached?" A sweet and crisp female voice sounded, and without thinking about it, I knew that it must be Sister Piaoxue.

As Lao Wang's apprentice, Sister Piaoxue not only fully inherited Lao Wang's craftsmanship, but also cooked good dishes, and she was also very beautiful. Although he is as old as Zhang Xiaosheng, he may be an easy relationship with his peers, and he takes special care of Zhang Xiaosheng. Zhang Xiaosheng was also very happy, and even privately recognized Piaoxue as his godsister.

"I've just arrived at the first floor, and I'm about to break through the second floor!" Zhang Xiaosheng said vaguely as he stuffed noodles into his mouth.

As a family that has been inherited for a hundred years, the Lu family does not rely on more than just a scholarly signboard, it is said that the Lu family used to be a family of cultivators, and in the heyday of the family, it was a master of the determination of Yuan Shen cultivation. Later, although he withdrew from the cultivation realm for some reason, and most of the inheritance exercises were lost, the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the Lu family is not something that anyone can easily shake.

Therefore, some knowledge about cultivation, although it may be rare in ordinary families, is not a secret in the Lu family, and Piaoxue told Zhang Xiaosheng about the division of the realm of cultivation.

Cultivation is divided into three realms: hearing the Dao, entering the Dao, merging the Dao, and there is a higher realm above it, what is it, it is already at the level of legends, and you can't experience it if you don't hear about that realm.

Wendao is divided into: refining gas, bigu, and building the foundation, of which the nine layers of qi refining, and the valley and the foundation are divided into three periods: before, middle and after.

Qi refining is mainly to boil the body, stimulate the essence and blood, and finally produce qi in the body, and practice to a high depth, which is comparable to the peerless masters of the world, but it is still a mortal body, and has not entered the immortal gate, not all immortal cultivators need to go through this step. Bigu is to convert qi into spiritual power, at this time the body can absorb spiritual energy from the outside world, and no longer need to consume worldly food, so it can be said that it is the first to enter the immortal path. Foundation building is to continuously accumulate the aura in the body, and finally reach the marrow washing valve body, turning the mortal physique into an innate detoxification, and laying the foundation for future cultivation. At this time, the threshold of cultivation is entered.

The path of entry is divided into refining gods, fetal breath, and condensing pills. Among them, refining the gods exercises the divine sense, the fetal breath controls the breath, and the knot pill condenses the essence of the whole body and refines its own supernatural powers.

The road is divided into babies, out-of-body, and transformation, what the specific situation is, and the snow is not very clear, only knowing that most people will not be able to touch this realm in their lives.

As a servant of the Lu family, he will also be taught some basic cultivation methods, of course, limited to qi refining.

Like Zhang Xiaosheng, what he chose is a mental method called "Aoki Resisting the Wind", after cultivation, it can greatly improve the flexibility of the body, and it is like a whirlwind. Although the aggressive type is slightly insufficient, Zhang Xiaosheng still chose it at first sight, in his words, "Saving life is the first priority, and only by saving your life can you enjoy life." ”

For Zhang Xiaosheng, he was born poor, he did not have any big ambitions, he ate and drank enough every day, and he would be content to marry a delicate wife in the future.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaosheng did not deliberately pursue the improvement of his skills.

"Xiaosheng, you have to work harder, after all, a higher skill means more self-preservation. Piaoxue treats Zhang Xiaosheng like a younger brother, always urging him to practice.

"I know, I must practice hard and protect Sister Piaoxue in the future" It feels so good to be cared for, Zhang Xiaosheng feels from his heart the love he will have to get from his parents in the future.

"Sister Piaoxue, why don't you care about our brothers? Zheng Qingyun, Zhou Wenli, Zhu Wenle, and Qin Lan joked beside them.

"Ha, ha, ha......"

It also drew laughter from a group of people around him.

"Ignore you......" Jiang Piaoxue's face was slightly red, and she turned around and hid in the kitchen.

The warm sun shone on his body, Zhang Xiaosheng drank the hot noodle soup, and felt unprecedented peace in his heart, he enjoyed this scene very much, if he lived like this for the rest of his life.

"I'm leaving!" Zhang Xiaosheng finished drinking the soup, his feet were strong, a smoke came out of the courtyard, quickly turned a corner, and ran towards Young Master Lu's room, today I will go to the suburbs to practice equestrianism, thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little faster under my feet.

When he arrived outside the young master's house, Zhang Xiaosheng looked up at the sun, and the time was just right. After tidying up his clothes, his expression became serious, and he respectfully shouted to the room: "Young master, it's time to go!"

"Go get your horses ready. ”

"Yes, young master. ”

......

The north of the imperial capital is a vast grassland, the green grass gently sways under the spring breeze, and the blue waves continue to spread away into the distance, quite a sense of "the sky is like a dome, covering the four fields".

"Ah, it's finally here. Young Master Lu looked at the green grassland in front of him, his mood was greatly relaxed, and he couldn't help but scream.

"Xiaosheng, don't pretend, Lao Huang is gone, get on the horse, let's be faster than anyone, of course we are not allowed to use skills!" Young Master Lu, who was no longer under control, regained his free and bold character, pulled the reins, and rode his horse forward.

"You're foolish, Xiaoluzi, you're not my opponent!" When Zhang Xiaosheng heard this, he instantly kicked his respectful appearance away, quickly turned over his horse, and galloped forward.

Lu Junzhu, as the only son-in-law of the Lu family, has been placed on high expectations by the whole family since he was a child, and since he was a child, his every word and deed has been required to abide by etiquette, and there is someone to supervise everything he does (that is, Huang Lao), not only to learn poetry and etiquette, but also to practice martial arts. All year round, every day is full of arrangement, and there is very little freedom.

In this case, Lu Junzhu was not crushed, and maintained such a free and optimistic attitude, which Zhang Xiaosheng admired very much. In addition, the two have similar tempers and similar smells, and they have already called each other brothers and sisters in private.

Tired of playing, lying on the grassland side by side, facing the sky, Zhang Xiaosheng looked at the gentle sunshine, enjoyed the friendship between the brothers, and thought in his heart

"It's good like that, if only it could be like this forever......"

(Is there a lot of affection!)
