Chapter 9: Apprenticeship

Chapter 9: Apprenticeship

Hai Fugui was awakened by a slight tremor, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out that the flying stone had landed, and the sky had turned into night, and the sky was full of stars. The peak of the mountain where the Flying Rock rests is extremely steep, next to the cliff at the top. Hai Fugui walked down carefully, the down-to-earth feeling was really comfortable, and Hai Fugui lay down on all fours. The four grass demons also came down, obviously full of curiosity about this place, walking around, Hai Fugui didn't have the energy to care about them, just told the four grass demons not to go far, just play near the top of this cliff.

Suddenly, a pair of delicate boots appeared in Hai Fugui's eyes, and when he looked up, he saw an old Taoist chief with white hair, beard and eyebrows, wearing a dark old Taoist robe, his body was slightly thin, and the wrinkles on his face revealed that the age of this old Taoist chief was almost ancient. This is completely in line with the image of a Taoist priest in Hai Fugui's heart, except that there is no floating dust and wooden swords.

The old Taoist just stood there, and he didn't call Hai Fugui, but just looked at him carefully. It turned out that this old Taoist chief was meditating in the palace, and suddenly felt that an aura was close to the Yue Chi Peak where he was, and there seemed to be a faint demonic aura in the middle, so he came here. He didn't pay attention to the four grass demons when he saw them, but the young man lying on the ground attracted his special attention.

Hai Fugui hurriedly climbed up, and arched his hand and said, "Immortal Chief, may I ask if this is Shu Mountain?"

The old Taoist chief replied: "Exactly, where did the little brother come from?"

Hai Fugui finally came to Shushan after all the hard work, and it seems that this flying stone is quite reliable. Jumping up happily: "Oh yes! It's finally here!" Seeing the old Taoist looking at him strangely, he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm too excited for a while." Officially, he saluted and said: "The boy is rich and noble, and you have to send the chief of the iron pen to guide and come to Shushan to learn the Tao." Dare to ask what the immortal chief is called?"

The old Taoist elder coughed and said, "Poor Dao dust!"

"You're the Dust Chief, huh?"

Hearing that Hai Fugui was so surprised, Yichen Daochang's face was still unwavering, and he said, "Little brother, do you know Poor Dao?"

Hai Fugui said that Qi Dashi let him send a letter, and after hearing it, Yichen Daoist seemed to fall into a memory, and sighed for a long time: "Qi Dashi, he ...... cough cough cough ...... How does he look?"

Hai Fugui replied: "Uncle Qi seems to be in good spirits, with a vigorous body and a ruddy complexion, it is really rare to have such a good body at his age." ”

Yichen Dao Chang smiled and said, "Yes, that's good." ”

Hai Fugui said: "It is rare to have a confidant in life, and it is even more difficult to find a common rarity." By the way, Dao Master, do you know how to find the Iron Pen Dao Master?"

Yichen Daoist did not reply to him, but asked rhetorically: "Can you ask, why did the little brother come to Shushan to learn the Tao?"

Hai Fugui couldn't answer this question for a while, so he said: "There is no other reason, I just want to learn some skills to defend myself and protect my family." ”

Yichen Dao said: "If you just want to learn a few tricks to defend yourself, the martial arts of many sects on the rivers and lakes are enough, and the Folding Sword Villa that the little brother just left has a first-class martial arts - Thunder Sword Technique." Why did the little brother come to my Shushan faction from near and far?"

Hai Fugui said with some embarrassment: "The Taoist chief doesn't know, and he doesn't have the talent to learn martial arts, so he wants to come to Shushan to see if he can learn Taoist spells." ”

Yichen didn't expect Hai Fugui to answer so crisply and honestly, he looked at Hai Fugui with a smile, and asked: "You kid is also honest, but my Shushan faction takes it as its mission to kill demons and demons, little brother, you brought four grass demons with you to join the Shushan faction, where does this start?"

At this moment, Hai Fugui was in trouble, and said a little overwhelmed: "This, the Shushan faction will not even destroy the little demon who has just been transformed, right?" and the four "smart and dexterous" seemed to understand what Yichen Dao Chang said just now, and felt a threat, so they all hid behind Hai Fugui, but they each poked their heads out vigilantly and looked at Yichen Dao Chang with wide eyes.

Yichen said long: "Then little brother, how are you going to deal with demons?"

Hai Fugui thought for a while and said: "I really haven't thought about this before, but people are born, demons are born, they are all creatures between heaven and earth, and they all have the right to live, but they are different races and different positions." If the demon sucks a human being, of course it must be killed, and if the demon obeys his duty, there is no need to kill more. Of course, if humans wantonly kill demons, they are also to blame for being killed by demons. Wouldn't it be nice to get along well and be neighbors. After Hai Fugui finished speaking, he touched his head and said, "Don't laugh at the kid's immaturity. ”

Yichen Dao was silent for a long time, sighed and said: "I didn't expect you to have such an opinion at a young age, or not, it was not easy for you to come to Shushan all the way, and Shushan accepted you as a disciple!"

When Hai Fugui heard this, he was overjoyed, could it be that it was the interview just now? He actually passed it in a daze? and said in disbelief: "Dao Chief, can I really worship under the Shushan Gate?"

Yichen Dao Chang showed a kind smile and said, "Well, if you don't think the old Dao cultivation is low, how about being a disciple under the old Dao sect?"

Hai Fugui thought to himself that this Yichen Dao Master appeared silently just now, and his cultivation must not be low. Just wanted to agree, but said with a sad face: "The Taoist can accept the kid as an apprentice, and the kid is naturally happy, but he promised the iron pen Taoist in the Folding Sword Villa before, so he ......." ”

Yichen Dao said: "The current cultivation of the iron pen is not enough to accept the qualifications of the apprentice, besides, the son recalls whether the iron pen personally promised to accept you as a disciple?"

Hai Fugui recalled the words of the iron pen: "Accept it as a disciple of which senior brother and be a beginner disciple." "Then I'm now bowing under the feet of a dusty road, and it's not a breach of contract. Thinking of this, he quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Disciple Hai Fugui, please meet the master." He knocked his head three times in a row.

I didn't see Yichen Dao Chang stretching out his hand, Hai Fugui was helped up by an invisible force, Yichen Dao Chang, stroked his white beard, and said three times in a row: "Good, good, good, from now on, you will be my Shushan disciple, give you the Dao name Ling Que." Tonight, the gift of master and apprentice was first, and after the head returned to the mountain, he would report and officially enter the door. ”

Hai Fugui put down a big stone in his heart, and now he finally worshiped the Shushan faction, and it seems that his master's backup and cultivation are not low. Suddenly thought of something, and said, "Master, what about the four grass demons I brought......?"

Yichen Dao said: "My Shushan faction is not an ancient eater, and a huge Shushan can still accommodate four little demons who have just transformed." If the four little ones are willing, they will be a boy by your side, and maybe they will have a chance to win immortality. It's not in vain to work hard. ”

Although the four "smart and dexterous" have just been transformed, they also understood at the time that this is a big opportunity, and it is difficult for plants and trees to become demons, and if there is no guidance from a master, it will only be a piece of loess in the end. Hurriedly thanked Yichen Dao Chief: "Yes......! The youngest Huang Qiao's body was unbalanced, and he fell to the ground as soon as he made a move.

When Hai Fugui heard this, he completely relaxed, helped Huang Qiao up, and said, "Thank you, Master." ”。 My worst worries have also been solved. It's good to see this Shushan faction. You have to work hard to cultivate, don't let down the master's kindness. Although I have experienced a lot of twists and turns along the way, when I think of this, I think of the flying stone, so I said: "Master, in fact, the reason why the disciple was able to rush to Shushan so quickly is thanks to the big stone behind me. ”

Yichen Dao Chang had already noticed the sudden extra large disc stone on the top of Yuechi Peak, and Dadi also guessed what the origin was, so he said: "You are very blessed, and you have obtained the ancient flying magic weapon before you cultivate the Dao. This thing is a flying magic weapon used by Taoists in ancient times, the body material is a kind of suspended stone that is rare in heaven and earth, and the heart stone of Pangu is refined into four tripods, depicting the formation, and integrating into the mountain and river map, and the sacrifice is made. It's just that now Pangu's heart stone is difficult to find, not to mention, the refining techniques of the Four Beasts Ding and the Mountains and Rivers Diagram have long been lost. Your flying stone is one of a kind. ”

Hai Fugui couldn't understand what Yichen said for a while, but he probably guessed that this thing he unintentionally got was very rare and precious, but unfortunately it didn't belong to him completely, but to the mysterious owner of the ape, although he hadn't appeared for more than a thousand years, but it shouldn't be a big problem for these immortal cultivators to live a thousand years old. Anyway, if he really comes to ask for it, he will return it to him, and he doesn't have to occupy this flying stone, he can learn the sword flying technique of Shushan, hehe, this is the wind. Of course, also blowing the wind.

Yichen Dao Chang said again: "However, the four transformations of wisdom and dexterity are not complete, and it is not suitable to stay in Yuechi Peak at this time, there is a medicine garden in Shushan, which is full of spiritual energy, and can be used for them to live. With that, four points of light were shot out and fell into the top of the four heads of "Smart and Dexterous".

The four "smart and dexterous" knew that they had obtained the Taoist method taught by this old Taoist master, and they could perfect their transformation, which would be of great benefit to their future cultivation, and this kind of opportunity was extremely rare for spirits and demons. I was extremely happy in my heart, and I cheered, just like a child getting a baby.

Seeing that the four grass demons were well-behaved, Yichen Dao was very relieved in his heart, and said, "Let's go, go to the medicine garden." With a wave of the robe, he used his mana to wrap Hai Fugui and the four "smart and dexterous", and flew out of thin air. Hai Fugui noticed that the master did not have Edgeworth.

Out of Yuechi Peak, Hai Fugui took in the entire appearance of Shu Mountain in the air, and exclaimed in his heart: "Nature is really magical, it seems that such a mountain can actually float in the air." ”

It turned out that the Shushan sect was built on eight peaks floating in the air. The seven peaks are surrounded by the main peak in the middle, and are connected to the main peak by a chain bridge. Yuechi Peak is one of the seven peaks, the size of the radius is three or four miles, the strange stones stand in a forest, the ancient trees are verdant, the stream water is tactful, and the waterfall is flowing. Compared to other peaks, Yuechi Peak has fewer lights. It's no wonder that those people in the rivers and lakes of Folding Sword Villa said that I couldn't go to Shushan. If it weren't for the flying stones, I wouldn't have been able to get up unless I had wings. The light is not very good at night, and Hai Fugui can't see it very really.

Yichen Dao Chang seemed to know what Hai Fugui was going to ask, and without waiting for him to speak, he said: "Heaven and earth are wonderful, and we can only spy on them in our lives." The formation of this Shu Mountain, there is a record in the library pavilion, and you can go to your Qingshu uncle to ask for advice or two when you have time. ”

The speed of the wind seems to be slow, but it is actually extremely fast, and it has flown over dozens of mountains in the night sky, and has come to a valley with extremely strong aura, the valley is full of all kinds of flowers and herbs, some exotic flowers and plants can shine at night, and the whole valley is dazzling in all colors, Hai Fugui accidentally touched a bunch of fluffy flowers and plants next to him, and saw a large chain reaction near the "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...... was originally a long tubular all shrunk into a round ball.

The smart and dexterous four themselves are the spirits that grow and the world, and there is a natural sense of intimacy for this place, and they are running happily one by one. In a moment, a small face appeared behind the branches of flowers and trees, and the crisp laughter brought a burst of new vitality to the valley.

Hai Fugui said: "Smart and dexterous, the four of you will cultivate well here, and by the way, take care of the flowers and plants in this valley, and I will come to see you when I have time." ”

The four grass demons seemed extremely reluctant to let Hai Fugui leave, especially Huang Qiaolai was in Hai Fugui's arms and refused to come down. It's good to say that I made an agreement with the four grass demons, and it won't take long to come back to see them, so I coaxed them.

Seeing this scene, Yichen Dao Chang sighed and said: "Plants and trees have love, not to mention demons." ”

Hai Fugui and Yichen Dao Chang returned to Yue Chifeng's Taiwei Palace, and because it was getting late, he ordered Xi Lan, the only second-generation disciple of Taiwei Palace, to take him to rest. After Hai Fugui said goodbye, when he was about to turn around, he was stopped by the head of the dust road, only to see that the eyes of the head of the dust road that were already gray fog suddenly burst into fine light, like two stars in the night sky, scanning Hai Fugui's whole body up and down, and then collecting the exercises, his eyes returned to the previous gray fog. Hai Fugui was glanced at by the head of the dust road just now, and he only felt that he was a transparent person

I heard Yichen Dao Leader ask, "Ling Que, do you have a strange jade on your body?"

Hai Fugui thought about it, took out the strange stone that the snow demon had dropped earlier, and said, "Master, are you talking about this piece?"

Yichen Dao Commander nodded and said, "That's right, it's this piece, this is the Ice Spirit Jade, which was born from the essence of heaven and earth, and it is extremely helpful to improve cultivation." Where do you get it?"

Hai Fugui told the story of the snow demon, and after listening to it, Yichen Dao Chang said, "No wonder!" He groaned and said: "However, this jade has not been refined, so the effect is less than fifty percent, and I will refine it for you as a teacher." ”

"Thank you, Master. Hai Fugui handed over the Ice Spirit Xuanyu to Yichen Dao Chief, and it was strange to say that Hai Fugui actually felt that the jade in his hand trembled slightly, and he didn't think much about it for a while, and then left with Xilan.

After Hai Fugui left, suddenly Yichen Dao Chang sighed and said, "Come out!"

I saw a wisp of green smoke suddenly float out of the ice spirit Xuanyu and condensed into a human figure, it was the snow demon in the snow mountain, but his face was much weaker. The snow demon fell to the ground, his body trembled and frightened, and said, "Immortal, spare your life! The little demon will never dare again!"

Previously, Yichen Dao Chang felt that Hai Fugui had demonic energy on his body, thinking that it was because of the four glazed foxglove grasses, so he didn't check it carefully, and now he sent away the glazed foxglove grass, Hai Fugui still has demonic energy on his body, which is very strange, so he used the Heavenly Eye Technique to observe Hai Fugui, only to find that the demonic qi came from this piece of ice spirit Xuanyu, so he just finished the scene.

When the snow demon body was in the snow mountain, it was already killed by the sword light flying from the sky, but because it was in the thousands of miles of snow mountain, the snow demon primordial god who was an elf into a demon did not dissipate, if there was no object that could host the primordial god, then even if it was in the snowy mountain, it would not take three days to turn into the vitality of heaven and earth and dissipate between heaven and earth. But it just so happened that she had to have the essence of heaven and earth, the Ice Spirit Xuanyu, which not only had the effect of assisting cultivation, but also had the greatest effect of being able to host the primordial spirit. Of course, the snow demon will not let go of this only chance to live, hiding in this ice spirit jade, the aura is sufficient, and after the original god recovers, there may be a chance to be reborn, and she is an elf into a demon, and there may be hope to recondense the body. So he has been hiding in this ice spirit jade. How do you know that Hai Fugui came to Shu Mountain inexplicably, and the snow demon didn't have time to escape, so he met the unfathomable Taoist Taoist.

Yichen Dao said: "If it was when Poor Dao was young, according to the things you did that hurt the heavens and reason, you would definitely not be able to escape the result of a soul being scattered. ”

The snow demon was even more afraid, she could feel the Taoist in front of her, not to mention that she was just a primordial god, even if her body was intact, she was afraid that she would not be able to withstand a blow from the other party, the snow demon felt that her life was completely in the hands of the other party, how could she not be afraid, she fell to the ground tremblingly, and did not dare to raise her head, and said: "The immortal chief spares his life, and asks the immortal to grow up to be merciful." ”

Yichen Dao Chang continued: "Since you know that you are wrong, and the poor Dao will not be wiped out, I will leave you a chance to mend your ways. ”

"Immortal Chief's benevolence, thank you Immortal Chief's men for their mercy. ”

"You don't need to thank me, you have two choices, the first is to be imprisoned in my Shushan Lock Demon Tower, and you can only be released after the completion of the atonement sentence; ”

After weighing it in the snow demon's heart, he was originally transformed by the snow fairy, and he worked hard to cultivate the Yuan Shen. Although I don't know what this lock demon tower is, it must be extremely dangerous. I am afraid that my own primordial spirit body will dissipate before the completion of my sentence, and when the time comes, I will turn into an unconscious immortal, I am afraid that it will either be devoured by others, or it will slowly disappear into heaven and earth. And staying by Hai Fugui's side, although he had to be driven by him and lost his freedom, a hundred years passed in a blink of an eye. Weighing a flip said: "The little demon chose the second one, which was originally guarded by Hai Gongzi for a hundred years." ”

After seeing her choice, Yichen Dao Chang didn't say much, and with a spell, he stretched out his hand and drew an unknown aperture pattern in the air, forcibly hitting the Lock God Technique into the Snow Demon Yuan Shen.

The snow demon only felt a heart-piercing pain from the Yuan Shen, and the outside of the Yuan Shen was bound by a thin imperceptible mana thread, and the snow demon knew that this must be the unique control method of the Daomen, but he was afraid that his life would be controlled by Hai Fugui within a hundred years, and he could not resist him at all.

After the Yichen Dao Leader controlled the Snow Demon, he used his mana to carve some formation patterns on the Ice Spirit Jade, which could speed up the Ice Spirit Jade's gathering of spiritual energy by a double speed, which was beneficial to both the Snow Demon and the Sea Fugui.

Let's say, Hai Fugui followed behind Xilan, looked at the Taiwei Palace with his eyes, and found that this palace was not small, and there were twenty or thirty small rooms in the main hall and small rooms, but it was deserted, and most of the rooms were without lights. So he asked Xilan in front of him.

Xilan replied: "Taiwei Palace is the cultivation palace of Master Yichen, but Master Yichen does not accept disciples, and even I am sent by the head of the sect to take care of some trivial matters for Master Yichen. ”

In other words, there will only be three people in the future of Nuoda's Taiwei Palace, so it is possible that Shushan sent people to be so scarce?

Xi Lan said: "Yes, the junior brother must be talented and intelligent, and he is a person with excellent talent that is rare in a hundred years, otherwise the master will not be moved to accept the apprentice." ”

Of course, Hai Fugui knew that he was a few pounds and a few taels, but he didn't want to lose face in front of Senior Sister Xilan, so he muttered a smile and said, "Senior Sister praised it falsely, Senior Brother was just lucky to be accepted by Senior Brother, and I will need more guidance from Senior Sister in the future." ”

Xi Lan said: "That's natural, the disciples of Shushan support each other, as a senior brother and sister to guide the cultivation of the junior brother and sister, it is a matter of duty, as long as the junior brother does not think that the senior sister is lowly in cultivation." ”

Oh, this senior sister is so polite, I'm a little embarrassed, is this Shushan disciple enthusiastic? Or is it cold? Hai Fugui is also unpredictable for a while.

Coming to a small courtyard, Xi Lan said: "Senior Brother Ling, this small courtyard will be your living place in the future, I am in the courtyard Yijingxuan over there, if there is anything to come to me, it's not early tonight, junior brother should rest early." ”

Hai Fugui said: "Thank you, senior sister, for your hard work." Hai Fugui habitually took it into his arms, touched a handful of silver tickets, thought about it was too cheesy, and suddenly remembered that the ape had given him two things, so he took out the thousand-year-old ginseng and said: "Senior sister, this is a ginseng I got on the road, presumably there are not many years, I won't need it for a while, it's better to give it to my senior sister to refine the elixir." "Hai Fugui believes that every Taoist priest can do alchemy.

Xi Lan's face changed when he saw the ginseng that Hai Fugui took out, this is a genuine humanoid holy ginseng of more than a thousand years, as long as there is still a breath, he can pull people back from the ghost gate. And now the ginseng that is more than 500 years old is extremely rare, and he said: "Senior sister, I don't know how to make alchemy, but your ginseng preservation method is wrong, I can give it to Uncle Caogu for you, and when you lack the pill in the future, you can ask Uncle Caogu for it." ”

"Then it's troublesome Senior Sister!"

Xi Lan smiled slightly, took the ginseng, and left. Hai Fugui watched Xilan fly with the sword, his skirt fluttering, and flew away like Chang'e running to the moon.

Because of the strange stones of Yuechi Peak, so the palace houses are, like a needle, where there is a place, it is generally built on the top of the stone peak, some of the palace houses are connected to the spiral staircase road, some are not, you need to learn the sword to fly or the wind to come and go freely.

The small courtyard of the residence arranged for Hai Fugui is built on a stone peak, and there is a flowing water next to it, forming a small waterfall, there is a row of bamboos growing on the west side of the courtyard, which is just used as a railing, the north side is against the mountain, the east side is this flowing waterfall, and the south side is the step path that comes up. There are five houses in the small courtyard, a living room, three bedrooms, and a kitchen. There is also a small courtyard in the middle, with a round stone table and three stone benches.

Push open the living room, the furnishings in the room are extremely simple, there are no calligraphy and paintings, there is no vase, just a reception table, four wooden chairs, the carving on this table and chair is extremely exquisite, the main hall hangs a portrait of a person, is an old Taoist leader, standing at the top of the mountain, a full moon on his head, his face is resolute, he holds a sword in his right hand, strokes his beard in his left hand, faces the night wind, seems to be contemplative, and seems to be going to ride the wind. didn't say who it was, it is estimated that it is either the patriarch of the sect or the predecessor of Taiwei Palace.

Hai Fugui went to the bedroom again, which was also extremely simple, a bed, a cabinet, and a chair. A small table rests against the head of the bed.

Hai Fugui lay on the sandalwood bed, breathing the aura of Shushan, showing a satisfied smile, and thought: "Senior Sister Xilan named her residence Yijingxuan, and she also has to give this small courtyard a name, to pull the wind a little bit, forget it, let's keep a low profile, just call it Hai Fugui's Nest......?

Hai Fugui slept extremely comfortably last night and woke up early. In the early morning, Shushan is like a dream, the clouds and mist are curling, the breeze is swaying, listening to the sound of Dingdong spring water, Hai Fugui has a feeling of wanting to calm down, so he sits on a stone by the spring.

Suddenly, there was a voice from behind: "Senior Brother Ling Que." ”

Hai Fugui looked back, and it turned out to be Xilan, carrying a small basket. Hurriedly got up and said, "Senior sister, morning!"

Xi Lan approached and said, "Senior Brother Ling, presumably you haven't opened the valley yet, so you sent it over early." ”

Hearing her say this, Hai Fugui really felt a little hungry, thanked him, opened the basket, and saw that there was a white jade plate inside, containing four cakes the size of a baby's fist. Pick one up and stuff it into your mouth, it's soft and elastic, not sweet or fragrant, it feels like chewing a ball of flour. Alas, this flour still tastes sweet after chewing for a long time, and this pastry Hai Fugui chewed for a long time until it finally had a bitter taste, so he hurriedly swallowed it.

And Xi Lan said with a look of antiquity: "How is it?

Hai Fugui said flatteringly: "It's okay, senior sister, don't you eat it?"

Xilan said: "After we and other cultivators arrive in Bigu, we will no longer eat such mundane food, and try to restrain our appetites to keep our body, mind, and soul clean. ”

Hai Fugui didn't expect that Shushan really had this kind of realm that does not eat fireworks in the world, no wonder he felt that Xilan and Ling Bo had a dusty temperament.

Xilan said again: "I haven't cooked for several years, and I don't know if it's to my liking, if my junior brother likes it, I'll eat it all." ”

For Senior Sister Xilan's enthusiastic intentions, Hai Fugui couldn't shirk it, so he could only swallow it hard. I almost choked, so I hurriedly took local materials and poured a spoonful of spring water. I feel like my stomach is thrust.

After seeing Hai Fugui finish eating, Xi Lan told him: Go to Taiwei Palace to meet Yichen Dao Chief. Then he packed up his things and went back to Yijingxuan.

In the Taiwei Palace, Yichen Dao Chang sat cross-legged, saw Hai Fugui coming, pointed to a futon on the side of the plate and motioned for Hai Fugui to sit down.

Yichen Dao Chang took out the re-refined Ice Spirit Xuanyu and handed it to him, Hai Fugui took it and looked at the patterns and textures, and there was a refreshing feeling of comfort when he put it beside him. Who knew that there was a snow demon that had been banned here?

The Shushan faction has swordsmanship and spelling and is known as the Taoist double master, especially the swordsmanship is even more unfathomable, so when the head of Yichen Dao asked Hai Fugui what he wanted to learn, Hai Fugui said without hesitation: "Imperial swordsmanship." ”

Yichen Dao Chang smiled and said, "Then I will pass on your swordsmanship." Yichen Dao Chang took out an old book out of thin air and said: "The sword art is about using qi to control the sword, so the first thing you need to cultivate is to gather qi, if you want to gather qi, then you must understand the induction, this 'heaven and earth induction chapter' is the basis for understanding heaven and earth." ”

Hai Fugui took it and took a look, "The way of heaven is more than enough to make up for the insufficiency, and the way of man is more than enough to make up for the shortcomings,...... Hai Fugui had a headache, where can such mysterious things be understood, and his face was embarrassed for a while.

Yichen Dao Chang seemed to know that he would be like this, and said: "This heaven and earth are full of all kinds of spiritual energy and spiritual power, such as ......" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in the air and stretched out a claw, only to see a small fire appear in the hand of Yichen Dao Chief, and said: "This is the fire spiritual power of one of the five spirits,"

Then two fingers and a flick of it dissipated into the air, and then said, "Another example." With his hands together, he slowly opened it, only to see a cloud of black gas beating on the palm of his hand, and Yichen said: "This is the demonic qi cultivated by the demon clan." As for the power of the true spirit that we Taoists cultivate. After the head of the dust road casually pinched away the demonic qi in his hand, he stretched out his hand and opened it, only to see a gray-white cloud-like gas lying quietly on the palm of his hand: "Oh, that's what it looks like." ”

Hai Fugui saw that he demonstrated three kinds of spiritual power, although he didn't know Taoism, but he also estimated that there were not many people who could be as easy as Yichen Dao Chang, and he admired Yichen Dao Chang in his heart, it seemed that his master was really not wrong, and asked: "Master, then how can I sense it?"

Yichen Dao said: "Although this heaven and earth are full of all kinds of spiritual power, but you are born to be able to sense the one in ten thousand that grasps it, this book of heaven and earth induction is to teach you how to sense it, you must know that everything in heaven and earth has a spirit, and the aura of heaven and earth is more spiritual, if you want to sense it, you must learn to communicate with it." ”

Hai Fugui had another question: "Communication, how does the master communicate? Can they speak?"

Yichen Dao Chang smiled and said: "Of course, the aura of heaven and earth can't be spoken, but it knows good and evil, knows closeness, and is conscious. It's a wonderful way to feel. Besides, everyone's sensing method is different. What we have to do is to follow the method in this Heaven and Earth Induction Chapter to bring our own cultivation closer to nature and integrate into Heaven and Earth. Naturally, you can sense the aura between heaven and earth. ”

Well, in the end, I still have to study this heaven and earth induction chapter. Hai Fugui has been able to recite it backwards, but he still can't feel the ubiquitous aura and spiritual power in this heaven and earth. Helplessly, the sunlight in the sky was really dazzling, and he casually put the old book on his face, and fell asleep in a moment.

When he woke up, it was already the moon. Another day passed, but there was still no progress on my own. Hai Fugui found a clifftop in Yuechi Peak where he thought he had good feng shui and beautiful scenery to meditate. It's been half a month. Although Master said that even those who are extremely talented and talented will need three years. But for this kind of cultivation that has no clue and no hope, anyone who has been in it for a long time will feel bored.

Hai Fugui patted the dust behind him and returned to his small courtyard, the Hidden Bamboo Building, because from a distance, Hai Fugui's small courtyard happened to be hidden in the bamboo forest, so he was lazy to take such a name, and he was quite satisfied with the price.

When I came back, I saw Xilan in the courtyard, and a big bag was placed on the stone table, and said, "Senior Sister Xilan, are you here?"

"Well, seeing that you have no food in the kitchen, I brought you a bag. ”

It turned out that since eating the pastries made by Xilan last time, Hai Fugui didn't dare anymore, but politely proposed to Xilan: "As a junior brother, how can you keep bothering your senior sister to make breakfast, you can do such trivial things yourself." So Xilan brought him some food.

Hai Fugui saw that this grain was neither flour nor rice, and he was not a grain indistinguishable stream, but he couldn't recognize this kind of grain that looked like millet and millet, and only after listening to Xilan's explanation did he know that it was a kind of grain unique to Shushan, which was a kind of millet, but it had the stickiness of wheat, and the Shushan faction called glutinous millet. The biggest difference from the food Hai Fugui used to eat is that it is particularly anti-digestion, and on average, you only need to eat four small cake balls for one meal in the morning. Of course, it is not something that can be planted in ordinary places, except for places with strong aura such as Shushan, there are few places that can be planted.

Hai Fugui doesn't explore what kind of variety this is, as long as he can eat it. So Hai Fugui made full use of his culinary talent, and all kinds of pastries emerged in endlessly. Seeing these extremely cute, beautiful and delicious pastries, Xi Lan couldn't help but taste one and said, "Senior brother, you are trying to spoil my Dao heart!" So she pestered Hai Fugui and asked him to teach him how to cook.

Not half a month has passed, and the previous glutinous millet has been eaten, so another bag was sent over. Seeing Hai Fugui coming back with his head pulled his head deaf, he said: "Senior brother, cultivation is supposed to be in harmony with the way of heaven, and it is a matter of going with the flow, especially the kind of exercise you cultivate, you can't be in a hurry, the so-called speed is not reached, maybe something will be gained inadvertently." ”

Hai Fugui was absent-minded and didn't notice the hidden information in Xilan's words, thinking that he was too urgent? Okay, then he took his time and said, "Thank you Senior Sister for reminding me." The junior brother almost walked into a misunderstanding. "It's normal for Hai Fugui to have such an urgent mentality, and this is true for every cultivator at the beginning.

Hai Fugui collected his mood and said, "Senior sister, do you still learn yesterday's osmanthus cake today?"

"Well, I always feel that the heat is a little worse, and there is no incense made by my junior brother. Speaking of cooking, Xilan immediately became interested. Hai Fugui didn't know why this senior sister, as a cultivator, was so interested in cooking. I'm almost done teaching several high points.

"Well, knead the dough evenly and vigorously, alas, you don't need to be so vigorous, this is the second cutting board in half a month. ”

"Well, you can sprinkle some more flour, eh, flour is for eating, not for wiping, hey! ”

"Hehe, who told you to laugh at me. ”

"Well, I won't dare next time. ”

Hai Fugui has been here in Shu Mountain for a month, except for Yue Chi Peak, he has not been anywhere else, because Yue Chi Peak and the main peak Taiqing Peak are connected by a chain bridge more than a mile long, Hai Fugui does not know the sword, nor has he learned the art of resisting the wind, he is afraid of heights, he does not dare to go over, and the master does not allow himself to use the flying stone in Shu Mountain. said: "As a disciple of Shushan, how can you walk in your own mountain gate with the help of flying stones." ”

It's been almost a month, and the four of the smart and dexterous agreed to go to see them once a month, and it should be no problem to go to the back yam garden with the flying stone. Therefore, Hai Fugui summoned the flying stone, and with a whoosh, he arrived at the back yam garden.

When he saw the flying stone, he knew that Hai Fugui was coming, and ran out happily one by one: "Master, master, why did you come?" Huang Qiao also walked much more smoothly.

Hai Fugui was very strange when he heard this title, squatted down and said, "Little guy, who taught you to call it that?"

The four of them said in unison: "We are all old boys!" "After the four smart and dexterous four got the transformation recipe taught by the master of the dust, in this medicine garden with sufficient spiritual energy and the most suitable for the growth of flowers and plants, the cultivation is thousands of miles a day, the leaves on the top of the head are almost gone, and the roots on the hands and feet are also much less, the biggest change is that the practice of the transformation recipe has greatly opened the spiritual wisdom, not only the mind has matured a lot, but even the vocabulary has increased.

Seeing the four chubby little guys, Hai Fugui's unhappiness in his heart was swept away, and he hugged Huang Qiao and said, "Look at your life here, it's quite happy." Hai Fugui took out the clothes prepared for the smart and dexterous and said, "When you grow up, you can't walk bare-bottomed." These are a few children's belly pockets and shorts made by Hai Fugui himself.

Smart and dexterous, they wore it happily one by one: "The master is really a good man." ”

"We also have treasures for the master. "I saw that everyone was smart and dexterous, and each of them had a purple-red fruit in their little hands.

Hai Fugui recently flipped through some demon anomalies and Shennong's hundred herbs when Yue Chifeng was idle. Knowing that this is the vermilion fruit that blooms once in a hundred years, it is one of the materials for refining a variety of pills, and it can also increase cultivation if you take it directly, how did these four little guys get it? So he asked, "You can't pick it in this medicine garden, right? Let you guard this medicine garden, you four won't guard and steal by yourself." ”

Huang Cong listened and said hurriedly: "The master misunderstood, this zhuguo was picked early and not ripe, the medicinal properties were very poor, and it would fall into the soil by itself for its own nutrition when it was late, so the small four saw that this zhuguo was ripe but no one came to pick it, so they picked it on their own initiative." ”

"Oh, I see. "Hai Fugui only knew that there was such a fruit from Shennong's Hundred Herbs, but he didn't expect that there were these details in it, and he was smart and dexterous as a flower and grass spirit, so he naturally knew more about these spirit grass and spirit fruits.

"That's it, that's it, we don't dare to discredit the master, in case we make the master unhappy, and drive him out of the door. It's a big deal. "The four of them are smart and dexterous, and they don't have much scheming, and they speak straightforwardly.

Hai Fugui said: "Okay, I'll take it." ”

The smart and dexterous four usually practice extremely hard, this time Hai Fugui came, it was rare to relax for a moment, and for a while laughter erupted, Huang Qiao stood next to him and gently helped Hai Fugui beat his legs with his little hands.

Hai Fugui was just a good thought at the beginning, but he didn't expect these four grass demons to form such a fate, and he was also embarrassed in his heart. Seeing that the aura of this medicine garden valley is strong, presumably if he senses the aura of heaven and earth here, the probability of success may be much higher, so he let the four smart and dexterous quiet down, pick a stone, do it cross-legged, and silently recite the heart method of heaven and earth induction.

The four of them are smart and dexterous, sitting in a row next to Hai Fugui, like four fat gourds, but they are not meditating, purely for fun.

Hai Fugui was sensing the aura of heaven and earth with his heart, and his mind had long been unaware of where he had gone, completely unaware that there was a woman from outside the Medicine Garden Valley at this time.

This woman, dressed in a simple dark robe, with long black hair over the waist scattered behind her head, slim and elegant, walking in the wind, falling lightly at the mouth of the medicine garden valley, seeing a young man sitting on the stone to practice, said in her heart: "What you are cultivating is actually this mental method, and you have great ambitions! I don't know if you chose it yourself or someone chose it for him?" The woman did not disturb Hai Fugui, but stood and observed:" Seeing that his dress is the second-generation disciple of our sect, but the second-generation disciple of this sect is not this person, could it be the disciple that Senior Brother Yichen accepted some time ago? This son's qualifications are not bad, and he can even make Senior Brother Yichen, who has been depressed for half his life, move the heart of accepting apprentices, but unfortunately he may not be able to learn this heaven and earth induction chapter, and I don't know what Senior Brother Yichen is planning to do? But Senior Brother Yichen can regain his strength is a great thing for my Shushan. "This woman is one of the elders of the Shushan faction, the Daoist of the Grass Valley, who is proficient in medical skills and alchemy, so this Medicine Garden Valley is under her management.

Hai Fugui's thoughts wandered, and he felt tired of it, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone around him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was a beautiful Taoist aunt who was looking at himself, so he stood up and said, "This sister, is there something wrong?"

Cao Gu didn't expect Hai Fugui to suddenly reap the benefits, and he was so neat and unprepared. What he never expected was that Hai Fugui opened his mouth with a sentence of "this sister...... "I was completely caught off guard. I couldn't cry or laugh, but fortunately, Cao Gu had practiced for many years, and his Dao heart was steady, and he recovered to his original Dao in a moment: "Poor Dao Cao Gu, Xi is one of the elders of Shushan." ”

Hai Fugui was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted: "Disciple Ling Que pays a visit to Uncle Caogu." "Senior Sister Xilan told herself, some people from the Shushan faction, I know that there is a female uncle in the Dan Pharmacy called Caogu, but I didn't expect to be so young, alas, did I disrespect her just now?

Cao Gu's voice was extremely gentle, and he said, "Senior Brother Yichen has never accepted apprentices, and this time he suddenly accepted you as an apprentice, which is really a little different." ”

Hai Fugui didn't know what this sentence meant, so he had to say: "The disciple's qualifications are ordinary, and he is fortunate enough to be valued by his master and accepted under the door." ”

Caogu said: "You don't have to be arrogant, continue to cultivate." With that, he walked towards the valley.

Hai Fugui wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, fortunately, this uncle is easy to speak, otherwise he will be punished for the crime of disrespecting his elders, and then disaster will fall from the sky.

When the smart and dexterous four saw Hai Fugui's appearance of wiping sweat, they also wiped their foreheads and said, "Master, master, are you very hot? Hai Fugui couldn't cover his four mouths with his two hands at this time.

The grass valley in front of him obviously heard it, but he didn't look back, just smiled and continued to walk towards the valley.

After a while, Caogu walked out, with a little regret on his face, and whispered to himself: "Alas, after a few days of delay, it disappeared, and this kind of heaven and earth spirit treasure is really not forced by those who are deeply blessed." ”

Hai Fugui listened to her tone as if he had missed something, could it be Zhu Guo? Regardless of whether it was or not, try it first, at least it would be able to save the image in front of the elder, so he took out Zhu Guo and said, "Uncle Shi is looking for this thing?"

Cao Gu saw the Zhu Guo in Hai Fugui's hand, and said happily: "Exactly, where did you get it? ”

Hai Fugui said: "It was a few of my boys who borrowed to live in the medicine garden, and when they saw that the fruit was ripe, they picked it without authorization. ”

Cao Gu didn't care too much about these four grass demons before, but then he took a closer look, and his heart was shocked, it turned out that he had just looked away, these four were not ordinary rehmannia grass demons, but glazed rehmannia grass demons, it was not a level at all, and sighed: "It turned out to be these four little guys, I don't take it in vain, here are four pills that can increase some cultivation, which is counted as a thank you gift." "Produced by Grass Valley, it must be a high-quality product, four dark green pills with a halo, the size of a thumb, floating to the smart and dexterous four. It is the Snow Lotus Jade Ginseng Pill, and the demon spirit monster will increase its cultivation for at least ten years after taking it.

The smart and dexterous four grabbed it quickly with their small hands, as if offering a treasure, raised their hands and handed it to Hai Fugui and said: "Master, master, elixir." ”

Cao Gu saw that the pill he gave was given away by them in person, which was really annoying, and he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your master is not cultivating enough, so you can't take this kind of pill." ”

Hai Fugui said: "Uncle Shi gave you something, just take it yourself." Don't thank Uncle Caogu yet. ”

Smart and dexterous, he held hands and bowed to the ground together, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Caogu." ”

Hai Fugui coughed, and his side eyes signaled to change his words, what is your name, uncle, you should be called elder. Smart and dexterous saw the eyes of his master, and immediately changed his words: "Thank you, sister." ”

Well, Hai Fugui has the heart to kill that piece of tofu. He blushed for a while and said: "This, this boy is not strict in discipline, don't be surprised by Uncle Shi!"

Caogu was not angry, and said, "It's okay, Tong Yan is unscrupulous." Taking Zhu Guo, Zhengse said: "We cultivators are different from spirits and demons, we should still rely on our own hard cultivation in order to achieve Mahayana, remember not to rely too much on external objects, especially taking pills and other things to increase cultivation, there are unimaginable hidden dangers for future cultivation." After speaking, he walked away against the wind, leaving only a fluttering figure for Hai Fugui.

Half of these pills that grass valley refines to increase cultivation are only given to those who have already lost the path of cultivation. If you cut off and take it further, for those who are really qualified and gifted cultivators, taking this kind of elixir, although they can quickly improve their cultivation in the early stage, they will leave a lot of impurities in the body, damage the cultivation qualifications, and leave hidden dangers that are difficult to eliminate, and the spiritual power in the body does not rely on the purity of the disciples who have cultivated by themselves, and the power of the Dao and magic methods is also more than a step worse, and the biggest disadvantage is that it affects the cultivation in the later stage, because the foundation in the early stage is not solid, and it is almost difficult to make progress in the later stage, and it generally stops at the Dancheng realm.

But Hai Fugui didn't know this, and after seeing Caogu go away, he muttered in a low voice: "I still provoked Uncle Caogu after seeing it." ”

The four of them were extremely happy and said, "Master, master, this sister is so generous." ”

Hai Fugui couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Call the elder!"

"Okay, Sister Elder!"

"Oh...... Help me......"

Hai Fugui was too lazy to care, summoned the flying stone, and walked away. The smart and dexterous behind him shouted loudly: "Master, remember to come and see the boy!"

After Hai Fugui came back from the medicine garden, his heart was much more relaxed, and he was no longer anxious about the clueless things about sensing the aura of heaven and earth.

While meditating on this day, Hai Fugui suddenly felt that the surroundings had become extremely quiet, and even the sound of falling leaves on the ground could be heard. This feeling is very wonderful, Hai Fugui feels that his five senses are infinitely magnified, he can see the scales on the small fish at the bottom of the pool, and he feels that there are many invisible elves around, some are happy, some are sad, some are irritable, and some are gentle, Hai Fugui tried to greet them with his heart, a timid elf seemed to come to Hai Fugui to seek safety, and with Hai Fugui's guidance, he got into a corner of his body. The other elves seemed to just want to play with Hai Fugui, lingering and playing around.

This state of Hai Fugui is called "sitting and forgetting" in the Daomen. In this wonderful state, Hai Fugui lasted for a long time, and finally retracted his mind, feeling more power in his body, is this the aura of heaven and earth?

Hai Fugui came to Taiwei Palace to report his situation to Yichen Dao Chief. Yichen Dao Chang was obviously taken aback, and after carefully observing the situation in Hai Fugui's body, he couldn't help but say happily: "Yes, what you sensed earlier was indeed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and now you can practice the method of gathering qi." ”

Yichen Dao Chang took out an old secret book, on which were written five ancient characters "Taiqing Qi Gathering Formula", and said: "Each Dao Gate has its corresponding Qi Gathering Method, and the Taiqing Qi Gathering Recipe of my Shushan School pays attention to the purity, truthfulness, and rigidity. This is closely related to the exercises practiced by our school. There are thousands of spiritual energy and spiritual power in this world, and there is only one that is most suitable for you, and it is not blindly strong that is the best. You also need to carefully experience and perceive. It is generally related to people's physical attributes and behavioral personality. ”

Hai Fugui took this secret book, opened it and read it, he was confused, what dantian, Shaohai acupoint, Chongyang acupoint, Rendu two veins, and so on, these acupuncture meridians Hai Fugui didn't understand at all.

Yichen Dao Chang patiently explained to him more than 400 main acupuncture points of the human body and the eight veins of the Qi Jing of Gong walking, and as for the more detailed, he asked Hai Fugui to go to the Tibetan Scripture Building to read it by himself.

Hai Fugui left happily, and couldn't wait to test this "Taiqing Qi Gathering Technique", and his great cause of cultivation was about to get on the right track.

Yichen Dao Chief's face was excited at this time, and he said to himself: "Sure enough. It's been 500 years! This is the luck of my Shu Mountain, and the luck of Daomen!"
