vs 40 The spiritual root of drinking speaks of the nature of the mind
Drunk Elder Li Zhongping made a retreat, the mountain in front of him should be the location of Shao Yan Daoyou's cave, under a closer look, the whole mountain was shrouded in a faint starlight, knowing that there was a large array of mountain protection, just wanted to transmit the sound loudly, suddenly the starlight separated, and a very fast and crooked light flew out.
Watching intently, the person who came had fallen in front of him, and shouted in his mouth: "Uncle Zhongping, the master is invited!" It was Lin Yunrou, Li Zhongping was shocked in his heart, he could fly with a weapon, at least the third layer of qi refining, and then watched carefully, Lin Yunrou was already the fourth layer of qi refining, and asked in surprise: "What kind of elixir did Daoyou Shao Yan give you, in more than half a year, you have actually reached the fourth layer of qi refining." ”
"I haven't taken any pills!" Lin Yunrou felt a little strange in her heart, what happened to her uncle today, she was here in Shao Yan, everything was taken for granted, but she didn't know that it was a monk with two spirit roots, and she was promoted to three levels in half a year, which was also an astonishing speed.
Li Zhongping followed Lin Yunrou up the mountain full of questions, and as soon as they passed, the starlight naturally closed.
Shao Yan stood at the door of the cave mansion, with a smile on his face, and his hands were folded, "It's rare for Taoist friends to come, welcome!" led Li Zhongping to the stone table next to the cave mansion and sat down. Shao Yan said softly to Lin Yun: "Go to the Shidong Mansion and bring the wine for the master." ”
Lin Yunrou muttered, "There is also wine there." When Shao Yan heard this, he waved his hand, "Take yours too!" Lin Yunrou hurriedly went.
Shao Yan took out two high-legged crystal cups, which were made by Shao Yan later. Li Zhongping sighed and sighed: "What a delicate drinking utensil!"
Shao Yan smiled, and after a while, Lin Yunrou brought eight gourd wine, Shao Yan opened a gourd, Lin Yunrou took it, poured most of the cup for Li Zhongping, and poured it for Shao Yan. In a transparent crystal goblet, the wine resembles a purple-red gemstone with an attractive luster.
Li Zhongping tasted it lightly, his eyes narrowed, and the whole person was intoxicated by the strong fragrance of the wine, and it took a long time before he let out a long breath and sighed: "After drinking this wine, the general rice wine is tasteless." ”
Shao Yan said: "Daoist friends drink it, the apprentice knows that you like wine, and he has made a lot of wine for you, so you can taste her wine." Li Zhongping drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, Lin Yunrou took another gourd, Shao Yan took it smoothly, and said to Lin Yunrou: "You go and get a few snacks." Lin Yunrou left in response.
Shao Yan opened the gourd stopper in his hand and poured a cup for Li Zhongping, Li Zhongping tasted it carefully, and said: "It's good, but the mellow fragrance is not as good as just now, it seems to have fire." Shao Yan smiled and said, "This wine has been brewed for less than half a year, and the cup just now was brewed by me two years ago, of course, the mellow aroma surpasses it, but as long as it is left for a longer period of time, it will never be less than just now." ”
Li Zhongping nodded and said, "That's the case, the older the wine, the more fragrant it is." ”
Shao Yan opened other gourds, "Let's try this blueberry wine, it is made of blueberries, it has a unique flavor!" Pour out a glass, a full glass of blue, slightly purple, but it looks a little mysterious.
Li Zhongping tasted it, nodded and said, "It's really unique!" and tasted other fruit wines one by one, which indeed have their own characteristics.
Li Zhongping sighed: "I can't imagine that fruit wine actually has another flavor, the wine I tasted before is basically made from grain, and I don't know that fruit can also make wine, but fruit wine, wine should be the best." ”
Asked again how to brew, Shao Yan explained the whole process, Li Zhongping sighed: "It's so simple, I don't even need koji, it seems that I have to try it when I go back, otherwise, it will be tasteless to drink other wines." ”
Lin Yunrou has already sent a few side dishes, two plates of different nuts, a plate of fried fungus, a plate of fried mountain delicacies, a plate of fried wild vegetables, and a plate of preserved monster meat.
Shao Yan asked Lin Yunrou to sit down and eat, but Lin Yunrou didn't drink, just ate in a hurry and stood next to him to pour wine for the two.
Shao Yan and Li Zhongping can both be Bigu, the two of them taste the wine, only occasionally use chopsticks to eat vegetables, most of the time they are drinking, drunk to the fullest, Li Zhongping asked a long question in his heart: "Shao Daoyou, how did you let Yunrou be promoted to three levels in half a year, you must know that with her spiritual root, it is an accident to be promoted to one level in three years, before, I tried my best to let her enter the first level of qi refining." ”
Shao Yan said with a smile: "This sect's cultivation is different from the general method of cultivating the true realm, you don't ask about the spiritual root, you only ask about the heart surname. Although the spiritual root of the little apprentice is poor, her heart surname is very good, and she meets the requirements of this sect, so she is accepted as an apprentice. Due to the different methods, it is normal to upgrade to the third level in half a year. ”
There is also such a sect, Li Zhongping didn't expect that it would be this answer, and he couldn't help but ask again: "Then if there is no spiritual root, can your sect make it practice?"
"Yes, as long as his heart name is passed!" Shao Yan replied.
"Then your sect can not accept disciples and become the number one sect in the world. Li Zhongping put forward a reasonable hypothesis.
Shao Yan smiled bitterly: "The spiritual root is easy to find, but the surname of the heart is difficult to determine, I have met so many people, and there is only one person who meets the conditions." ”
"Why?" asked Li Zhongping curiously. The heart surname can be cultivated, so many people, there can always be a lot.
Shao Yan said: "What is the purpose of cultivation? If you can finally be liberated by practicing now, but you don't have any magical powers in the process of cultivation, like ordinary people, are you still willing to practice?"
Li Zhongping was silent. According to this statement, there are no two true cultivators in the cultivation realm who can meet the requirements now, and indeed, it is even more difficult for the heart surname.
Shao Yan continued: "If the spiritual root is one out of ten thousand, then the heart surname is one out of a hundred thousand, I have received two registered disciples before, and the cultivation method is still the method of ordinary monks, because this heart surname does not meet my requirements, just instruct them to walk better on the original path." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and muttered: "Say Cao Ying, Cao Ying" Li Zhongping was stunned, what kind of grass is it, Shao Yan was stunned when he saw Li Zhongping, knowing that he had lost his words, he didn't correct it, and said to Lin Yunrou: "Your senior brother and sister are here, you go and bring them in." ”
When you raise your hand, the starlight separates on both sides, revealing a passage.
Lin Yunrou rose up with her sword, this time she was not as reckless as she was just now, her speed was not so fast, and she flew out very smoothly. As soon as he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, he saw Long Mutian and Long Muxian brothers and sisters waiting outside.
Since the last time the Long brothers and sisters said goodbye to Shao Yan in Jieshi Mountain, they returned to the location of the Long family with the group of the Long family, but this time it was very beautiful, and even the patriarch was polite along the way, not to mention the others, when they returned to the clan, they were immediately promoted to elders, and the two became the youngest elders of the Long family. The brother and sister knew that the people in the clan took a fancy to the elixir that the two of them had picked in the cave, and the two had to admire the teacher's arrangement, so they simply handed over the elixir in the storage bag to the family for disposal. The patriarch and a group of elders were overjoyed, and even alarmed the ancestor of the family, specially went out of the customs, praised the two of them, and told the patriarch not to treat the two of them badly, and then went to retreat, of course, this time I went in with a few thousands of years of elixir to enter, and soon, the news came that the ancestor had successfully crossed the catastrophe and became the ancestor of the first baby.
The patriarch asked them to enter the family treasury and choose a spiritual weapon as a reward, but for the two, the spiritual weapon was really not interested, and there were dozens of ancient treasures on the two of them, just took one to deal with the past, the patriarch asked them what else they wanted, the two said that they wanted to enter the family library to read, and immediately approved, and they could read it as long as they wanted, and the two looked in the building for more than a month, and almost read all the information before leaving the building.
In the next few months, there were constantly Qi refining disciples to visit, there were also elders to visit the door, and there were a group of people who wanted to come to apprentice, so that the two of them were overwhelmed, in the annual family competition, the brother and sister became a member of the elder seat, so that the two of them were overwhelmed with emotion, thinking that last year, they were fighting in the ring, and their moods were completely different in a year, and their identities were also very different. Many envious eyes in the audience stared at the two of them, and even many female monks were thinking about how to please Long Mutian and whether they could become each other's wife.
After the New Year, the two stayed at home for another two months, and finally decided to go to the teacher, and prepared to live for a long time at the teacher's side, but they couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the family, so they said to the patriarch, and then set off to go straight to Shaoyandong Mansion.
Falling into the light, seeing that the mountain peak was shrouded in a layer of faint starlight, knowing that Shao Yan had arranged the Tiangang Earth Evil Star Dou Great Array, I didn't know how to get in, the starlight suddenly separated to both sides, and a young girl came out with a sword, landed beside the two, and gave a salute to the two: "Meet the senior brother and sister, the little sister is polite, the master asked me to take the two in." ”
The two came to Shao Yan with Lin Yunrou, the two saluted, Shao Yan helped them up, let them meet Li Zhongping, the two saluted, Shao Yan introduced both parties, Li Zhongping said: "Don't be polite, I don't have anything." He took out two beads, one for each person, and said, "This is the spirit bead obtained from hunting the demon beasts in the sea, and they are two night pearls, you can take them to play!" The two thanked them.
Shao Yan introduced Lin Yunrou and the Long brothers and sisters to each other, and after each of them finished their respective salutes, they stood aside, Long Muxian asked: "Teacher, when did you accept the little junior sister?" Shao Yan briefly said the process of accepting apprentices, Long Muxian took out a cut ancient treasure as a meeting gift, and gave it to Lin Yunrou, Long Mutian also sent an ancient treasure, Lin Yunrou looked at Shao Yan, Shao Yan said to Lin Yunrou: "Then you can accept it!" Lin Yunrou thanked her senior sister and brother and accepted the ancient treasure.
Li Zhongping's eyes widened, and Shao Yan smiled: "They followed me into the cave and got some benefits. Li Zhongping suddenly realized.
The Long brothers and sisters told the teacher about their intention to come this time, Shao Yan agreed with them to stay, and asked them to choose a place to open a cave, Long Muxian was close to Lin Yunrou, and he used a spirit weapon to dig a cave, but Long Mutian opened a cave on the other side of Shao Yan's cave. After the cave was opened, the two began to tidy up the cave, Lin Yunrou also went over to help, Shao Yan and Li Zhongping were still tasting wine, as if they were preparing to fight at night.
The two drank and talked at the same time, and Shao Yan also learned a lot of secrets in the cultivation world from the conversation. I didn't realize that when it came to cultivation, Shao Yan's large number of insights benefited Li Zhongping a lot.
The sunset is gone, the stars are rising, the two have no intention of stopping, Lin Yunrou and the Long brothers and sisters also stood beside them and listened to their discussion, because the two have changed from wine tasting to Taoism, many monks are puzzled by the question, the two said inadvertently, as usual, fortunately there are no many people around, otherwise, wouldn't it make the monks in the world both ecstatic and embarrassed.
Late at night, Shao Yan turned around and said to the three of them, "Go down and cultivate!" The three of them were reluctant to leave. The two of them cultivated to a high level, and they didn't need to sleep at all, so they went straight to the dawn to talk.
Suddenly, Li Zhongping got up, gave a salute to Shao Yan, and said, "He said that if he is lucky enough to advance to the Yuan Infant, he will also be a friend of the Dao!"
