Chapter 15: Epiphany

After Xun Yu left, Shui Yi gave a few simple instructions, and the three children of Dewen You'er, Xiao Yun, and Yi Xiaotian went to play.

Wen You'er and Yi Xiaotian hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they were naturally very affectionate and excited, giggling and jumping in front of them in the direction of Niu Xin Pavilion, while Xiao Yun was not close or far behind, but she looked a little lonely in comparison. Along the way, Yi Xiaotian greeted Wen You'er with a shush, and learned that his sister was very happy under Master Shuiyi, so he was naturally in a relaxed mood.

Seeing that he had reached the place where he could get the clear sound of the double bridge, Yi Xiaotian glanced at the pool under the Niuxin Pavilion, and couldn't help but think of the bizarre experience in the pool when he first arrived at the Qingyin Pavilion, and couldn't help but ask Xiang Wen You'er, "Sister You'er, has Master Shui Yi ever talked about the mystery of that pool of water on weekdays?"

Wen You'er scratched his head: "The master just said that he wanted me and Senior Sister Xiao Yun to practice the water attribute exercises first, and we also go to the pool of water to practice more on weekdays, but I haven't heard the master talk about anything else." ”

"Oh......" Yi Xiaotian's eyes rolled, and he took over the conversation and continued: "Hey, hey, hey." Presumably you've learned a lot of skills now, but don't forget what you said you said you would have to take care of your brother when you grow up. ”

"Hmm!" Wen You'er lowered his head heavily, let go of Yi Xiaotian's palm, and suddenly jumped down excitedly towards the pool below: "Brother Xiaotian, see me give you the skills you have learned to perform!" As he spoke, he had already fallen on the water, his feet were flat, but he seemed to be on the ground, standing steadily on the water, holding the Fa in his hand and dancing a series of paintings, which caused the white waves of the calm pool to roll......

"Hehe, Brother Xiaotian, how is it? It's amazing, right?" Wen You'er tossed and then jumped back to Yi Xiaotian's side, and asked proudly.

"It's amazing, let's go, let's go to the pavilion and sit down, my brother is so good, ask why you are so powerful, haha. Yi Xiaotian, as before, picked up Wen You'er and ran towards the Niu Xin Pavilion: "You ghost girl, why are you so heavy?!" Wen You'er heard Yi Xiaotian panting and giggling.

When he sat down in the pavilion, Yi Xiaotian took a breath for a while, and was about to open his mouth to continue to ask Wen You'er about some cultivation, only to see that Xiao Yun also entered the pavilion, and sat silently opposite the two of them, staring at Yi Xiaotian and the others with slanted eyes.

Yi Xiaotian chuckled in his heart, and his eyes were clearly the first time he saw him in Jiazhou City, full of the demeanor of the eldest lady who was about to do something if he didn't agree with him, which was really a bit infiltrating. The air was silent for a long time, Yi Xiaotian was about to look away, but Xiao Yun got up first, and a goose fell to the water below, counted with both feet, and stepped on the water to face the distance.

Yi Xiaotian took a long breath, thinking that Xiao Yun must have saved her once in Baiyun Gorge, so he didn't embarrass himself. However, since the "evil woman" has gone, she will naturally return to her relaxed and happy life, Yi Xiaotian also remembered another purpose of going down the mountain today, that is, he opened his mouth and asked Wen You'er: "Sister You'er, your performance was really wonderful before, but I don't know that in addition to those external exercises, you also learned the art of internal body pranayama?"

Wen You'er stood up and slapped Yi Xiaotian's head on the ground: "Brother Xiaotian is really stupid, the master said that cultivation is from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside, and the combination of the inside and the outside." If you don't cultivate the aura and absorb it, you won't be able to cast powerful external skills!"

Yi Xiaotian smiled, and followed Wen You'er's words: "Oh, then perform another trick to show my brother?"

"That's not going to be able to perform, and now I just want to play with my brother, and I can't settle down. The master also said that the practice must be free of distractions, meditate on nature, and imagine that you are water, qi, flame, and ordinary things in the surrounding environment, so as to absorb the natural qi of heaven and earth!"

Yi Xiaotian was out of his mind, thinking about Wen You'er's sentence "I imagine that I am an ordinary thing in the surrounding environment......" was pulled by Wen You'er's strength, but he came back to his senses after pain, and he didn't think much about it at the moment, and the two of them jumped out of the Niuxin Pavilion with Wen You'er and entered the forest, and they had a lot of fun all the way......

The time of helpless reunion always flies, and the brother and sister play the games that were often played in Jiazhou City in the old days in this Emei Mountain almost next to each other, and it is close to dusk. Yi Xiaotian looked at the sky, led Wen You'er back to the gate of the courtyard of Qingyin Pavilion, and gave another advice, so he reluctantly said goodbye to Wen You'er, and went to Lijia Village in the direction of the mountain alone.

That night, Yi Xiaotian still hid in the room early, repeatedly thinking about the sentence "imagining that I am an ordinary thing in the surrounding environment", I seem to understand whether I understand it or not, and I can faintly understand the meaning, thinking: This swallowing and absorbing is the basic practice, presumably the exercises of each family are similar, although the black cheats in my brain are roughly described, and the specific details are not explained, but I estimate that it should be similar to the method of Emei, it is better to try.

So, Yi Xiaotian restrained his mind, just in case, he still sat on the wooden night basin, while guarding the hollow according to the meaning of the black secret book, and at the same time trying to separate a trace of his mind and fantasize about blending into the surrounding air, but it is very difficult to absorb and vomit, and it is impossible to use one method, not to mention that the two methods are carried out together. Helplessly, this young man is stubborn and strong, and if he refuses to give up and admit defeat easily, he gritted his teeth repeatedly and tried to suffocate his whole body, and his skin turned purple.

As the so-called blind cat can also meet a dead mouse, it didn't take long to toss, maybe it was a mistake and ran into a trick, Yi Xiaotian was inexplicably relieved, and the absorption and throughput suddenly became extremely smooth, and in the surrounding air, the spiritual energy continued to pour into the body, and the rapid Zhou Tian cycle. Silently counting the number of days of the week, thirty-five, thirty-six...... Seventy-one, seventy-two...... After a full hundred and eight weeks, the aura seemed to no longer pour into his body, Yi Xiaotian suddenly opened his eyes, broke his mind and woke up, only to feel that he had unused strength in his body, and he was uncomfortable.

Waving his fist vigorously at the air, he could hear the sound of the whirring fist wind, Yi Xiaotian was shocked: What's wrong with me? Almost at this moment, another black light flashed in Yi Xiaotian's mind, and he couldn't resist forcibly pulling him from the real world into his mind again. After more than previous experience, Yi Xiaotian in the illusion realm was not very flustered, knowing that he must have entered the realm of the black secret book, but he looked around excitedly to find it, looking forward to the appearance of a text recording the mysterious exercises again, and it was necessary to write it down and follow the cultivation.

This time, in the illusion, there has been chaos and darkness, nothing, and the black text cheats have never appeared again, Yi Xiaotian was anxious, and when he was very anxious, there was a human voice in his ears, as if it came from hundreds of millions of years ago, pale, eternal, and distant: "Vaporize inside and outside...... Forging Bones and Refining ......"

Yi Xiaotian was confused when he heard it, eager to learn, and shouted at the illusionary void: "Who is in my head?!Is it the Ninth Elder?!Can you speak the words of someone you understand?!" The voice did not sound anymore, Yi Xiaotian's heart was anxious again, he got out of the illusion in his mind, and returned to reality again.

A little bored in his heart, Yi Xiaotian pushed open the door and went to the yard to breathe, and was bumped into by Uncle Li, who went to the yard to wash his feet: "Xiaotian, Uncle is right, right? You can't go to bed too early every day, you see you, you just went back to the house and lay down for less than half an hour, and you woke up and couldn't sleep, right?"

Yi Xiaotian said "oh", which was considered to be an answer to Uncle Li, but his heart was full of surprise, and he was surprised that he had been tossing in the house for a long time, and it was a full one hundred and eight weeks, but it was only half an hour?

Thinking of this, Yi Xiaotian inadvertently laughed out loud "hehe", Uncle Li looked at his stupid appearance, laughed and scolded "little nerd", and then Lehe carried the washbasin into his room. Yi Xiaotian stayed in the courtyard for a while, thinking about the "inside" and "outside" things repeatedly, and then thought that when Wen You'er first entered the door of Master Shuiyi, he was arranged to work on physical fitness with a wooden bucket, and he also concluded that the art of refining the body should be the so-called "outside".

Thinking of this, Yi Xiaotian became extremely excited, and the muscles and bones were uncomfortably swollen with the strength he was already holding back all his body, so he immediately made up his mind, swooped out of the door, ran at full speed like crazy, and went out of the village.

At this time, Yi Xiaotian, for the first time, felt the magic of cultivation, the whole body was full of inexhaustible strength, the more he ran, the more he was physically and mentally happy, and after a while, he began to be a little overconfident and inflated, and he was thinking that with his current physical strength, within half a month, he would run all over this Emei Mountain!

Yi Xiaotian had no purpose, he just consumed the energy that was constantly pouring out of his body, accompanied by the sound of the wind in his ears, along the hiking trail in Hong Chunping, flying all the way to the west, climbing the stone steps and running, the hot sweat continued to flow out from all over his body, and was quickly dried by the cool breeze around him, indescribably warm and cool. In Yi Xiaotian's heart, full of epiphany and confidence in the future, in Yi Xiaotian's eyes, the full moon hanging high on the mountain tonight is also bright and beautiful like never before, and it is within reach......
