Chapter 7: Spirit Monkey

Drinking the aura-filled fruit wine brewed by the fifth senior brother and eating the secret roast pig, Xiao Wensheng only felt that his stomach was about to swell, after living for so many years, Xiao Wensheng had never eaten such a delicious roast pig or drank such a delicious wine, if it was in the mortal world, this was definitely something that was hard to find.

Until this moment, Xiao Wensheng had vaguely understood that everyone on the top of Tianji Peak had a unique feature, such as the senior brother's obsession with cultivation, the second senior brother's Dan, Luo Yan's beauty, the fifth senior brother's cooking skills, and the third senior brother seemed ordinary, but if the master could bring him, he must also have something extraordinary, so how should he find a field that he is good at? Xiao Wensheng couldn't help but think.

This meal was eaten for a long time, until everyone was a little drunk, and then they all dispersed and returned to their respective residences.

Xiao Wensheng walked back to his room, sat down cross-legged, and his body was warm and indescribably comfortable, Xiao Wensheng knew that the fruit wine of the fifth senior brother was brewed by collecting the mountain fruits rich in the vitality of heaven and earth and nourishing spiritual things, the most nourishing body, the wild boar cub also grew up breathing the heaven and earth vitality in the mountain since childhood, and the body was also full of spiritual energy.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wensheng took out the Pei Yuan Dan given by the second senior brother, poured out one and swallowed it in his mouth, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to refine qi.

And at this time, under the big tree in Xiao Wensheng's courtyard, the drunken Taoist didn't know when he appeared here, took a gourd and poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and said in his mouth: "The understanding of a person who knows how is not ordinary, there are some things that can be understood by yourself without saying anything, plus he is also diligent enough, his future achievements must be above the dust, and there should be no problem in cultivating to the late Yuan Infant stage." After muttering, the drunken Taoist reached out and stroked the branches of the big tree beside him, and a trace of remembrance appeared in his blurred eyes.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Wensheng woke up from the refining of qi, and after practicing all night without lying down to sleep, not only did he feel tired, but his whole body also felt very comfortable, and the Pei Yuan Dan given by the second senior brother for the first time also had an obvious effect, Xiao Wensheng stood up and stretched his body, only to hear the crackling sound of the bone knots in the whole body, this feeling of power filling the whole body was something Xiao Wensheng had never experienced before.

Pushed open the door and walked outside the room, but saw a food box on the bluestone table in the small courtyard, and a note pressed underneath.

Xiao Wensheng walked over and picked up the note and looked at it, which read: "I didn't bother when I came and saw that my junior brother was cultivating, and now our Tianji Peak except for you and me and the rest of the senior brothers have reached the realm of Bigu, so if you want to eat something in the future, just tell me." The name of the fifth senior brother Hou Guang was written on the letter.

Although the fifth senior brother doesn't like cultivation very much, the master may not be interested in his cultivation qualifications, but his cooking skills, Xiao Wensheng couldn't help but think so.

When I opened the food box, there was a bowl of porridge, a plate of side dishes, five small and delicate buns, which were still steaming at the moment, and a small pot of fruit wine, which obviously had just been delivered.

Xiao Wensheng sat on the stone pier, enjoying the first breakfast of Haotian Sect, the fifth senior brother's craftsmanship is really not covered, this meal Xiao Wensheng ate with relish, drinking the fruit wine brewed by the fifth senior brother, although this wine is not strong, but it is mellow and refreshing, extremely good, and Xiao Wensheng's addiction to alcohol has been suppressed.

After eating this breakfast, Xiao Wensheng walked towards the back mountain behind his small courtyard, when he cleaned up the dirt on his body and passed through the woods in the back mountain, he found that there was a small open space not far from the forest, and someone should have practiced swords there before.

After a while, Xiao Wensheng came to the clearing, this clearing is just in the center of the woods behind the courtyard, it is very quiet, and no one has been here for a long time, a thick layer of leaves has accumulated on the ground, and pieces of petals are dotted on it, and there are straight and long sword marks on the trunks of the nearby trees, it seems that the people who practiced swords here before have cultivated extraordinary.

Xiao Wensheng stroked the storage ring on his left hand with his right hand, the purple thunder sword appeared in his hand, on the sword body, occasionally there would be a flash of purple thunder, and the sword in his right hand waved it at will, Xiao Wensheng could clearly feel the changes in his whole body after coming to Tianji Peak, this purple thunder sword seems to be light, but in fact, the weight is not light, when he first came, he felt unusually hard to pick up this sword with one hand, let alone swing it a few times, and now, the sword is in his hand, although he still feels that the weight is not light, but it is not as hard as before。

"There are clouds in the book, the sword is the first of a hundred weapons, and it is also mentioned in the general outline of the Haotian Sword Duel that the way of the sword is the avenue, and the extreme of the sword can punish the immortals and destroy the saints. ”

"Haotian Sword Duel is a supreme method of gesturing the sword with qi, the supreme method of sword transformation, each layer corresponds to the magic power of different generas, and the two phases of wind and thunder can be learned respectively in the sword period of the flowing wind sword and the thunder sword, the flowing wind sword is elegant and agile, and the wind that breaks the void can be born when practiced to the extreme; ”

"Is it so godly, I've only seen lightning and thunder on a rainy day, can people also trigger such powerful thunder?" Xiao Wensheng couldn't help but think when he saw that the introduction of this swordsmanship was so powerful.

It's useless to think too much, only practice can produce practical results, just like reading, reading thousands of volumes, and the text is self-contained.

"Then, let's start practicing this Wind Sword Technique. Thinking of this, Xiao Wensheng took a sword flower in his hand according to the flowing wind swordsmanship imprinted in his mind, and danced with the footwork under his feet, but the first time he practiced, Xiao Wensheng's posture was very clumsy, and there was no sense of elegance and agility at all, but it looked clumsy, Xiao Wensheng didn't care about these, the first time he danced the sword in his life, Xiao Wensheng was very excited, so it wasn't until his wrist holding the sword was sore, and his feet were a little vague, so he stopped, and slammed his sword on the ground, panting heavily, but his eyes were completely excited。

Xiao Wensheng has never had such a hearty feeling in his life, even if he occasionally read wonderful articles before, he would applaud at most, but this moment like now, whether it is body or heart, is the first time to experience, until this time, Xiao Wensheng began to understand that he loved this sword in his hand so much, and it brought him a completely different feeling.

Xiao Wensheng sat cross-legged, his sword lay flat on his lap, and began to recover the depleted true yuan in his body.

When the whole body state was restored to the best, he stood up again, and this time, it was the thunder sword technique, the thunder sword technique was different from the flowing wind's elegant and soft, but it was a sword move that opened and closed, and the sword move was overbearing and murderous.

Xiao Wensheng was practicing the sword unwillingly, but he didn't notice that on the branch of a big tree not far from him, the drunken Taoist was lying there lazily, watching Xiao Wensheng clumsily dancing the sword, and said to himself: "I didn't expect this weak and powerless scholar to be the wind and thunder two-phase spiritual root, this wind and thunder two-phase is the heavenly phase, the main killing, on behalf of the heavens, I don't know what your fate will be, a thousand years have passed since the last demon tribulation, and the demon path has begun to move again, and the person of fate once again in a thousand years, will it be you?"

Speaking of this, the eyes of the drunken Taoist were a little confused, I don't know if it was because he drank too much, or if he remembered the past that had been buried in the depths of his memory for many years.

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, it can be said that Xiao Wensheng has lived a very quiet and fulfilling life in the past half a year, Xiao Wensheng is completely used to meditate and refine qi at night, and half a year has also allowed Xiao Wensheng's cultivation to reach the realm of the fourth layer of qi refining, and the true yuan has been able to run in the body for forty-nine weeks, and the wisps of true yuan in the body circulate in the body. During the day, he will go to the woods behind the courtyard to practice swordsmanship, and now his swordsmanship is already considered a small success, after several instructions from the master and the senior brother, Xiao Wensheng's swordsmanship no longer looks so clumsy, but it is a little interesting, as for the spiritual cave Xiao Wensheng has also been to it once, but the violent aura in the spiritual cave is not something that Xiao Wensheng can bear, and occasionally in his spare time, he will also follow the second senior brother to the mountains to find the herbs of the heavenly spirit and earth treasure, or go to the fifth senior brother to get some delicious food to satisfy the needs of the stomach, and the life is also comfortable。

On this day, Xiao Wensheng woke up from Qi refining as usual, after half a year of absorption and condensation, after reaching the fourth layer of Qi refining, one night could already drive the absorbed Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to run in the body for more than forty weeks, inducing Qi into the body, and had reached the state of consummation.

Standing up and stretching, Xiao Wensheng pushed the door and walked to the courtyard, a food box was placed on the stone table in the courtyard, Xiao Wensheng couldn't help but smile slightly.

It's been half a year, and the fifth senior brother's lunch box has never been broken one day, although now that Xiao Wensheng's cultivation has entered the fourth layer of qi refining, even if he doesn't eat for ten days and a half, he won't feel hungry, but he can't give up the food cooked by the fifth senior brother.

Xiao Wensheng opened the lunch box, the aroma came from the nose, but saw that there was only a bowl of hot soup inside, and there were sections of delicate meat in the snow-white soup, Xiao Wensheng only felt that his saliva was about to flow out, and when Xiao Wensheng picked up the spoon and wanted to taste it, suddenly an unfamiliar voice came from outside the hospital: "What is it? ”

As soon as the words fell, this person pushed the door and entered the courtyard without Xiao Wensheng's permission, and appeared in front of Xiao Wensheng's eyes, this man looked like he was in his twenties, and his appearance was handsome, but there was a trace of obscenity between his eyebrows and eyes, and there were several people behind him, and at first glance it was this person's attendant.

The man entered the courtyard, glanced at the soup in Xiao Wensheng's bowl, and said: "Hmph, I didn't expect that you people from Tianji Peak are not very good at cultivating but they are quite good at enjoying, you see, one person occupies such a large courtyard, let me take a look at what you eat in the morning? The soup stewed by the white spirit snake, this white spirit snake is not easy to catch, it wasted a lot of effort, right?"

Hearing this person's unkind tone, Xiao Wensheng's expression instantly turned cold, after living here for half a year, Xiao Wensheng also began to know that the people of the rest of the peaks had always been prejudiced against their Tianji Peak.

Xiao Wensheng said coldly: "I don't care who you are, now please go out, this is my private place." ”

"Yo, your cultivation is not high, and your temper is quite big, you look at your Tianji Peak, one has a bigger temper than the other, just now a person who cooks on the fire dared to point fingers at me, I wondered, what is there about your Tianji Peak?" the man said disdainfully.

"Now please be angry, or don't blame me for being rude. The purple thunder sword instantly appeared in Xiao Wensheng's hand, holding the sword in his right hand, Xiao Wensheng said coldly.

Seeing the purple thunder sword flashing with a trace of purple thunder in Xiao Wensheng's hand after Xiao Wensheng's soul was pregnant, a greedy look flashed in the man's eyes, but it was only covered up by him for a moment, this is Tianji Peak, he can't do anything, and it is a capital crime to kill the same sect in Haotian Sect.

"Hmph, if you have the ability, come out to compete, let me see if you Tianji Peak are just hard-mouthed. The man snorted coldly and said.

If this man was just looking for trouble for himself, Xiao Wensheng would not care about anything, but this man took a bite of Tianji Peak, and insulted the fifth senior brother who was closest to him, which he couldn't bear.

"Hmph, I'd like to see what arrogant capital you have. Xiao Wensheng said coldly.

"Hmph, some people dare to go to our Tianji Peak to spread wild, junior brother teach him a good lesson, don't leave your hands, I will bear it if something happens. At this time, a cold voice came, and the figure of the second senior brother appeared in front of the two of them.

"Second Senior Brother, why are you here?" Xiao Wensheng asked.

"Hmph, I heard that a toad who wants to eat swan meat came to our Tianji Peak today, and I have to prevent him from biting indiscriminately, so I checked it with my divine sense, so I came over. ”

"You...... , Hmph, aren't you going to compete? Do you dare?" the man shouted at Xiao Wensheng.

"Why don't you dare, junior brother, go on, he who beat me is looking for teeth all over the ground, and the people who dare to touch my Tianji Peak, I think you are tired of life. Senior Brother's voice came from everywhere, and in the blink of an eye, someone had appeared in the small courtyard.

"Come on, let me see what arrogance you have in your arsenal. After Xiao Wensheng finished speaking, he walked towards the outside of the courtyard, and after the two sides stood still, the purple thunder sword in Xiao Wensheng's hand danced out of a sword flower, his body was like a flowing cloud sword like a cold star, and he attacked the man with a trace of killing intent in his elegance.

The man saw that Xiao Wensheng attacked directly, and hurriedly took out a sharp sword from the storage ring, the sword is three feet long, the sword body is made of green gold, and the hilt is wrapped in the skin of a century-old green scale mink, which looks extremely extraordinary, but it is a step worse than Xiao Wensheng's purple thunder sword.

The man started with a picky decision, and took away the sword that Xiao Wensheng attacked, and there was a faint golden sword qi emitting from the sword body, which showed that this man was at least in the realm of refining qi at the fifth layer of qi and calming his spirit, and he could already release the true yuan.

"Ding", the two swords collided together, Xiao Wensheng only felt a huge force coming from the sword body opposite, and the sword in his hand almost flew out of his hand unsteadily, and the man was also shocked, the force from Xiao Wensheng's sword body was completely beyond his imagination, and both sides took two steps back before stabilizing their bodies.

This man showed a solemn look on his face, he never thought that this person who was obviously inferior to himself in cultivation would have a real strength that was equal to himself.

"Hmph, I thought I had a lot of ability, shouting here, and eating my sword again. ”

Xiao Wensheng is like a dragon with elegant footwork under his feet, and after suffering a loss, he does not go to the man, relying on the elegant and flexible swordsmanship, wandering around the man, looking for his flaws.

"Nasty guy. After that, I saw that above the tip of the man's sword, suddenly a golden transparent energy sword less than ten centimeters broke away from the tip of the sword and flew towards Xiao Wensheng at an extremely fast speed.

"Senior brother, be careful. The senior brother's face changed, he didn't expect that the guy who entered the sect with Xiao Wensheng could even release the true yuan, and a flash came to the center of the two, and a red light flashed away, Xiao Wensheng just vaguely saw that the red light was a sword, and then the senior brother slapped two ear melon seeds on the man's face, and kept saying: "Hmph, didn't your master tell you that cannibalism is a capital crime? . "Say, kick the man out of the way.

The senior brother's series of actions made Xiao Wensheng confused, even if this man spoke more annoyingly, there was no need to do this.

The man got up and glanced at Xiao Wensheng and Wuchen viciously, didn't say anything, and walked down the mountain.

"Senior brother, this is ......" Xiao Wensheng asked puzzled.

"Hmph, this kid entered the sect with you, I don't know where I saw your senior sister Luoyan once and found here, stalking, making your senior sister annoying, I want me to teach him a lesson, because of the rules of the sect, I didn't want to care, I didn't expect this kid to be driven away by your senior sister Luoyan, he first slapped your fifth senior brother with an ear melon seed, and then came to find your stubble, just take this opportunity to teach him, those two ear melon seeds just now are enough for his two cheeks to be swollen for several days. The elder brother said.

"So that's the case, is the fifth senior brother okay?" Xiao Wensheng asked.

"He's good, he's been brewing a lot of fruit wine lately, so you can go get some to drink. The elder brother said.

"Well, that's okay, senior brother, second senior brother, I'll go to the fifth senior brother first. Xiao Wensheng said.

Wuchen nodded, turned around and walked towards his courtyard, while Xiao Wensheng walked towards the courtyard of the fifth senior brother Hou Guang, came to the door, knocked on the door and shouted, "Fifth senior brother, are you there?"

"Come in. Hou Guang's voice came from inside.

Xiao Wensheng pushed the door and entered the courtyard, the courtyard of the fifth senior brother is not like theirs, there are a lot of things here, including cooking things, which looks more chaotic, compared to Xiao Wensheng's yard that has not changed much even after half a year, this is more like the courtyard of an ordinary person.

Hou Guang's figure was in the wing room on the east side, and he shouted at Xiao Wensheng: "Senior brother, come and taste the newly brewed fruit wine, here I picked some more precious spirit fruits and added them to it, the taste is even better." ”

Xiao Wensheng walked over and saw Hou Guang filling the crystal-red liquid in a large jar into several gourds.

picked up a gourd that had been packed and sealed and threw it to Xiao Wensheng and said: "This is yours, this time there is not much brewing, the master loves to drink, so I will give you some taste and give the rest to the master." ”

"It's okay, I heard the second senior brother say that the person made a move on you just now, are you okay?" Xiao Wensheng took the gourd and asked with concern.

"Haha, it's okay, I'm thick-skinned and rough-skinned, I've come over and asked all over the time for a while, that kid wants to rob me of my wine, I'd rather splash him on the face than give it to him, and I don't look at my own virtues, I come here all day long to pester Senior Sister Luoyan, hey...... It's just a pity that I have a gourd of good wine. This Hou Guang looked distressed, but he didn't care about the palm prints on his left cheek.

Seeing that Hou Guang was fine, Xiao Wensheng was relieved and said, "Since you are fine, then I will go to practice swords." ”

"Well, let's go, let's go, when I'll finish dividing this fruit wine in a while, I'll go and send it to the master and brother. ”

Bidding farewell to the fifth senior brother, Xiao Wensheng came to the place where he practiced swords at the back of his courtyard, but before anyone arrived, he heard a squeaky monkey call.

But I saw a monkey standing on the branch of a big tree, covered with golden hair, also extremely beautiful, and its gurgling eyes looked very smart, this monkey was holding a branch in his hand at the moment waving wildly, and his face made an expression of impatience.

"Brother Monkey, I'm really sorry, something delayed for a while, I made you wait for a long time, my senior brother's newly brewed fruit wine, how about we taste it together in a while?" he said, and shook the wine gourd in his hand at the monkey.

Speaking of this monkey, there are some interesting stories, Xiao Wensheng practiced sword here for less than a month, this monkey appeared here, at first he hid far away, watched Xiao Wensheng practice sword from a distance, and watched very devotedly, and even saw the wonderful place will can't help but squeak and shout, which made Xiao Wensheng notice this visitor.

Seeing that Xiao Wensheng noticed it, at first it chose to hide farther, but seeing that Xiao Wensheng didn't mean to drive it away, he tried to get closer, getting closer and closer day by day, until finally he sat on the tree next to Xiao Wensheng to watch Xiao Wensheng practice swords, and in the past few months, it has never stopped, and he will definitely come here early every morning, waiting for Xiao Wensheng to appear.

Now that a few months have passed, this monkey has become Xiao Wensheng's best friend, and he will talk to this monkey when practicing the sword, he can feel that this spirit monkey can understand the meaning of his words, and after getting along for a long time, he can also roughly understand the meaning expressed by some of the spirit monkey's actions, forming a rare tacit understanding.

"Come, let me see how you're doing with your swordsmanship. Xiao Wensheng said.

The spirit monkey could indeed understand the tone of Xiao Wensheng's words, jumped down from the tree, held the branch in his hand, and waved it, looking like the Liuyun swordsmanship practiced by Xiao Wensheng.

"The footwork is wrong, the moves are lighter and smarter, your force is too old. Xiao Wensheng is like a master, carefully teaching this spirit monkey.

Obviously, Xiao Wensheng still can't understand some of his words, and he will scratch the hair on the top of his head from time to time, and the Liuyun Sword Technique is also in vain, without its meaning.

Seeing that this spirit monkey had finished practicing, Xiao Wensheng said, "Brother Monkey, watch me practice again." ”

As he spoke, the purple thunder sword appeared in his hand, his body was like a swimming dragon, and his footwork was elegant, and the elegant and agile interpretation of the Liuyun sword technique was vividly interpreted, and on Xiao Wensheng's side, a tiny wind whirlwind appeared, rolling and dancing the petals that fell on the ground, and the scene was beautiful.

Squeak, the monkey's excited mouth made a sound and danced with its hands.

The flowers move with the wind, and the wind dances with the sword.

Countless petals fluttered with Xiao Wensheng's body as if they had all grown wings.

After a set of Liuyun swordsmanship was completed, Xiao Wensheng held the sword in his right hand and stood behind his back, the wind stopped, and the flowers fell.

Even at this time, the spirit monkey was stunned and forgot to clap his hands.

"Brother Monkey, how is it?" Xiao Wensheng walked slowly to the spirit monkey and said with a smile.

After half a year of tempering, the soft and weak literati appearance on Xiao Wensheng's body at this moment has disappeared a lot, at this moment holding a long sword, wearing a green shirt, and a long hair tied up with a hairpin at will, a few strands scattered at random, and a face has become much more handsome, looking free and easy, even senior sister Luo Yan will say from time to time that Xiao Wensheng is becoming more and more tasteful.

"Smack. The spirit monkey kept clapping his hands to show that Xiao Wensheng's swordsmanship was really good, but his eyes were looking at the purple thunder sword in Xiao Wensheng's hand and the branches he folded at random, as if he had found the reason for the gap between the two.

"Squeak. The spirit monkey pointed to the sword in Xiao Wensheng's hand, and looked like he was jumping to try it.

"Do you want to use my Purple Thunder Sword?" Xiao Wensheng asked.

Hearing Xiao Wensheng's words, the spirit monkey kept nodding.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Wensheng said: "Brother Monkey, this sword was given to me by my master, and it can't be used by others, it is disrespectful to the master, and I can't help it, Brother Monkey." ”

There was obviously a hint of disappointment in the spirit monkey's eyes, but it disappeared in a flash, and instead pointed to the wine gourd brought by Xiao Wensheng and squeaked.

Xiao Wensheng smiled and said, "This is the fruit wine that my fifth senior brother has worked hard to brew, and ordinary people can't drink it, so you are blessed." While speaking, Xiao Wensheng pulled the stopper of the wine gourd, and a faint fruity aroma came from the gourd, Xiao Wensheng picked up the gourd and took a sip, the entrance was sweet, and after the wine entered the body, it instantly turned into a hot stream, flowing towards all parts of the body.

"Comfortable, good wine. Xiao Wensheng couldn't help shouting.

Seeing Xiao Wensheng so comfortable, the spirit monkey turned in a straight circle in a hurry, and Xiao Wensheng handed it the gourd in his hand.

The spirit monkey took the gourd, poured it violently, and then smacked his mouth, but a disdainful expression appeared on his face, and then made a move that made Xiao Wensheng crazy.

I saw that this spirit monkey poured out all the fruit wine in the gourd, and when Xiao Wensheng snatched the gourd, there was no power left in the gourd.

"Brother Monkey, why are you, I was kind enough to give you wine, why did you pour out all the wine?" Xiao Wensheng said unhappily, the most important thing is that this is given by the fifth senior brother, if he knows that he is sharing with a monkey, and let this monkey play a drunken madness and pour out all the wine, I don't know if he will be angry?

Squeak, squeak, the spirit monkey pointed to the gourd that was snatched back by Xiao Wensheng, then pointed to the wine on the ground, and then made an intoxicated appearance, as if telling Xiao Wensheng that he had drunk better wine than this.

"You mean you have better wine?" Xiao Wensheng asked tentatively.

Hearing that Xiao Wensheng understood what he meant, he nodded happily, and pointed to the gourd in Xiao Wensheng's hand and motioned for him to give it the gourd.

"Do you want to use a gourd?" asked Xiao Wensheng.

The spirit monkey nodded.

Xiao Wensheng suspiciously handed the gourd to the spirit monkey, the spirit monkey took the gourd, made a waiting gesture to Xiao Wensheng, climbed the tree a few times, and the whole body ran away from the tree, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"What are you doing, is the monkey even better at making wine than my fifth senior brother?" Xiao Wensheng couldn't help but be amused by his own thoughts, and no longer paid attention to the spirit monkey, Xiao Wensheng got up and swung his sword again, the sword thundered, and a trace of thunder flashed at the tip of the sword, which looked mighty.
