Emperor Zhizheng asked, "Did Daoyou do it?"

Kuang Shi said: "The minister is trying, but he can't do it yet." Speaking of this, his tone suddenly changed, and he continued: "However, the minister has thought of some ways to break through, and he may or may not be able to do it. ”

"Oh!" Emperor Zhizheng looked overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "What breakthrough method has Daoist friends found, why not tell me about it?"

Kuang Shi said: "Go back to your majesty, exhale and inhale, one to the outward and the other to the inward, one in and one out, the two are diametrically opposed, and there is a big conflict, so they cannot be carried out at the same time." It suddenly occurred to him that if a person had two nostrils, and if one of them was used to inhale and the other to exhale, wouldn't there be no conflict?"

Emperor Zhizheng was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Inhale in one nostril, exhale in one nostril?"

"Exactly. Kuang Shi nodded firmly.

Emperor Zhizheng couldn't help but ask again: "Did Daoyou do it?"

Kuang Shi's expression darkened, and he shook his head and said, "It hasn't been done yet, there will still be conflicts." ”

Emperor Zhizheng tried it, but found that he couldn't do it either, he thought for a moment, and then he was not very sure: "There will indeed be conflicts, Kuang Daoyou, do you think it will be because the two nostrils are too close?"

Kuang Shi thought about it, then nodded and said: "Your Majesty's words woke up the person in the dream, the distance between the two nostrils is too close, and it will indeed affect each other and cause a big conflict. ”

Emperor Zhizheng asked again: "If this is the case, what other way can Daoist friends solve this problem?"

"This ......" Master Kuang hesitated, unable to think of any good way for a while.

He is also a body refiner. Luo Xin was extremely concerned about this Kuang Master, and when he saw that he hesitated and did not answer, he was immediately anxious, and said anxiously: "It's over, it's over, if this Kuang Master can't answer, I'm afraid that my Qi Refiner will be suppressed by the Body Refiner." ”

When Xu Mo heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Luo, don't worry, since one nostril is breathing, one nostril can't be in." So why not try your mouth? You can breathe with your mouth. Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth, or exhale through your mouth and inhale through your nose. Maybe much easier. ”

Luo Xin was overjoyed when he heard this. Gu couldn't express his gratitude to Xu Mo. Hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Why don't you try to inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth." Or exhale with your mouth and inhale through your nose?"

Emperor Zhizheng and Master Kuang were shocked at the same time when they heard this, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him. Emperor Zhizheng's face was happy, "What this Taoist friend said is extremely true, who is the Taoist friend and where does it come from?"

Luo Xin made a long gesture on the spot, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is Luo Xin, the Qi Refiner of Qingmeng Mountain." ”

Emperor Zhizheng then said: "Luo Daoyou can come up with a way to inhale with his mouth and exhale through his nose, and he must also have unique insights in refining qi. ”

"Your Majesty. Na Luoxin refused to take the credit of others as his own, and bowed down for a long time, and then said: "This idea was not conceived by the minister. ”

"Oh!" Emperor Zhizheng's expression moved, "Could it be someone else?"

Luo Xin said: "It's this Xu Daoyou next to the minister. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Mo, and Emperor Zhizheng's gaze immediately shifted to Xu Mo following the direction of his finger.

Xu Mo had no choice but to stand up and bow to Emperor Zhizheng, "Xu Mo of Xinghua Village, Tongming County, has seen His Majesty." ”

Influenced by Xu Mo's sixth sense of spiritual consciousness, Emperor Zhizheng noticed the difference between Xu Mo and others at a glance, and said with a smile: "Daoist friends are extraordinary, I don't know what sect I belong to?"

Xu Mo replied: "In the next Jiesan, there is no door and no faction." ”

"Scattered people are free and uninhibited. Emperor Zhizheng smiled, and then asked, "Do Daoists have the method of immortality?"

Xu Mo sighed and said, "It's hard, it's hard, it's hard. ”

Emperor Zhizheng heard that he was difficult, and was about to ask, when a eunuch beside him suddenly reminded: "Your Majesty, noon has arrived, and you can have a banquet." ”

It turned out that everyone was talking, and before they knew it, it was already noon, and Emperor Zhizheng said: "Give a feast." ”

The music played, Emperor Zhizheng didn't say more, the banquet began, and Gong'e sent food and wine, everyone ate, the banquet was withdrawn, and the rest was a while, and then the question and answer just now continued.

Emperor Zhizheng continued to ask Xu Mo, "Xu Daoyou, you said that immortality is difficult, why do you say that it is difficult?"

Xu Mo said: "Throughout the ages, no one has ever been able to live forever, isn't it difficult?"

Emperor Zhizheng sighed when he heard this, "It is precisely because of this that we have to find the method of immortality, there are so many Taoist friends here, everyone has their own creative ideas, and if they are synthesized together, they may not be able to live forever." ”

Suddenly, he raised his voice and said loudly: "Master Kuang has meritorious service to the Fa, seals the Miaofa real person, rewards four thousand taels of silver, gives a python robe, a thousand hectares of fertile land, a mansion, and a gold medal, and can walk in the inner imperial city." ”

Then he glanced at Xu Mo and Luo Xin, "Xu Mo is meritorious in supplementing the method of immortality, and he will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver, and Luo Xin is not greedy for the merits of others, and he will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver if he is meritorious." ”

One of the eunuchs loudly said the reward, and the three thanked them and returned to their seats.

Emperor Zhizheng said: "Now the body refiner and the qi refiner have each proposed a method of immortality, although it cannot be done for the time being, but there is a method, that is, there is hope for immortality." Fellow Daoists, as well as the one who has the method of immortality, please put it forward, and everyone will refer to it. ”

After a while, someone stood up from the crowd, but this person didn't have much insight on the way to immortality, compared with the first two people, it was far worse, and the reward given by Emperor Zhizheng was not much, and then several people in a row were like this. Seeing that it was dark, no one had proposed the third method of immortality, and Emperor Zhizheng couldn't help but be a little excited.

The eunuch reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the sky is about to get dark." ”

Emperor Zhizheng said: "Rank, it's getting late today, so let's stop here first." This was the first day of the Ten Thousand Laws Conference, and a total of two people proposed two methods of immortality. Fortunately, it is still early, and in the following period, I hope that you will not hesitate to put forward your way of immortality. No matter which one you have, as long as you have unique insights on the way to immortality, I will definitely reward you heavily. ”

Everyone thanked him, and Emperor Zhizheng drove back to the palace.

After Emperor Zheng left, Na Luo Xin couldn't help but ask Xu Mo: "Brother Xu, you have great magical powers, don't you have no creative ideas in the field of immortality?" Why don't you answer?"

Xu Mo smiled and shook his head, his sixth sense could sense a person's body consciousness, and through this, he might really be able to find the method of immortality. But it's just a possibility, whether it can or not, he himself can't be sure. Today is only the first day of the Wanfa Conference, and it is still early, so there is no need to rush to put forward your own opinions.

Most of the people who stood up on this day were third-class mages, and the first-class mages in front. Only he knows that the Dao has unique insights on the path of immortality, and there are Changshengzi and Changqingzi brothers. Neither of them came forward, so why should they be in a hurry? If you bring it up too early, this method of immortality will be worthless.

At the moment, he just shook his head and did not explain to Luo Xin. At this time, the people present had already left one after another. Xu Mo turned his head away. He said to Tu Shan and Caidie Girl, "Where do you two live?"

The two men were mixed in. There is no place to live in this eternal temple. They are foxes, and if they find a hidden place, they can hide.

But listened to Xu Mo's words. The two couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and Tu Shan said: "I care about Master Mo, let's find a place to live by ourselves." ”

Xu Mo observed his words and knew his meaning, so he said: "If you two don't dislike it, it's good to stay with me for a while." ”

Tu Shan said in fear: "How is this good?"

The girl was very moved, and asked in a low voice, "Master Mo, is it convenient for you there?" Although she belongs to the Phantom Fox clan, after all, she was born in everyone, and she is a delicate girl, and she is clean by nature. This time I mixed into the Eternal Life Courtyard, I have been living among the trees, in the rockery cave, I am tired of living early, and I heard Xu Mo make this suggestion, how can I not like it?

Xu Mo said: "It's okay, if you live two more, it must not matter." ”

Tu Shan was about to say something, but Miss Caidie hurriedly said, "Then thank you Mo Gongzi." ”

Luo Xin listened to the three of them talking, and suddenly interjected, "Fortunately, the two of you didn't speak today, otherwise once your identity is exposed, you will be known by the Son of Heaven, but I'm afraid that Brother Xu will also be in trouble." ”

Tu Shan shook his head, looking a little lost, and the colorful butterfly girl said, "We won't speak at this time." ”

"Oh!" Xu Mo glanced at her in surprise.

The girl glanced at Luo Xin, and then turned to Xu Mo, "Master Mo is not an outsider, it doesn't matter if you tell you, it's just ......" As she spoke, she glanced at Luo Xin again, obviously not wanting him to know the truth.

Luo Xin smiled: "Since it's inconvenient to say, it's to avoid it below." ”

Miss Caidie said, "Thank you very much." Tu Shan bowed apologetically to Luo Xin, Luo Xin waved his hand and stepped aside.

Miss Caidie said: "Last time at my cousin's house, I think Mr. Mo must have known a little about it, we and Che Xingzi went our separate ways, Tu Shan and I came to Beijing, and Che Xingzi went to Mangdang Mountain to find the Fountain of Youth." ”

Xu Mo nodded, Che Xingzi was the middle-aged man he met at the house of the prince of Baling.

But I heard that the girl Caidie continued: "When I arrived in Beijing, especially at the Wanfa Conference, Tu Shan and I learned that many things are not as simple as imagined. Now the Wanfa Conference has just begun, and the time is still long, so Tu Shan and I decided that we will not admonish until we have to, and wait for the news of the car shop, it is best that he can find the Dingsheng Pool during this period of time, if he finds the Dingsheng Pool, there is the Spring of Immortality, when today's son is so fond of immortality, we will admonish again, and he will be happy, and he will agree. ”

"It's good that you can think like that. Xu Mo said: "It seems that you have to wait for the news of the car dealer first?"

Miss Caidie nodded, "Che Xingzi has already taken people to Mangdang Mountain, if it goes well, he will be able to return in time." As he spoke, his eyes flashed with color, and he obviously had great hopes for Che Xingzi's trip.

Seeing her like this, Xu Mo didn't say anything more and took the two back to Changchun Courtyard. Liu Zhenzhen and Hongxian have returned, and they are playing leaf cards with Lin Xue and the second daughter. Xu Mo introduced Tu Shan and Caidie Girl.

Liu Zhenzhen heard their voices and quietly asked Xu Mo, "Why did you bring them back?"

Xu Mo smiled: "They don't harm you, what are you afraid of?"

Liu Zhenzhen snorted angrily, pinched him his arm, turned around, and sulked with his back to Xu Mo.

Xu Mozhi said that she was the temper of the eldest lady, smiled, and did not coax her. took everyone to dinner, and many people recognized Tu Shan and Caidie Girl, but they were afraid of Xu Mo's power. No one dares to meddle in their own affairs.

After eating, I returned to the Eternal Temple. Tu Shan saw that there were many female dependents in Xu Mo's house, and he refused to stay no matter what, so Xu Mo had to discuss it with Luo Xin, who didn't bring anyone and lived alone in a big house, so he asked Tu Shan to live with him.

In the following days, Liu Zhenzhen and Hongxian still ran out of Lu every day to play, and Xu Mo, Tu Shan's clan and Caidie girl went to the Wanfa Conference.

In the previous period, it was mainly the third-rank mages who stood up and narrated the path of immortality. The first-class mage hasn't moved yet. These people are cunning and cunning, waiting for a blockbuster at a critical time.

But these third-class mages, except for Chen Xuan and Kuang Shi's performance on the first day, basically did not have much insight.

Watch the time go by day by day. Eyes saw the end of the month. this day. Emperor Zhizheng asked on the throne again: "Rank, which one still has the method of immortality, please tell me." Let's take a closer look. ”

After a while, someone responded: "Your Majesty, the minister has the law of immortality." This person was a middle-aged beautiful woman, who stood out of the crowd and walked to the middle of the field.

The vast majority of the mages who participated in the Ten Thousand Dharma Conference were men, and there were almost no women. This middle-aged beautiful woman is about in her early forties, and she already has a little crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, but her complexion is white and greasy, quite charming, and even more rare is a second-class mage.

When Emperor Zhizheng saw her, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he said approvingly: "Daoyou is a female streamer, and she has such an achievement, which is really enviable." Who is the surname of the Taoist friend, where does he come from, and what sect does he belong to?"

The beautiful woman bowed to Emperor Zhizheng according to the man's etiquette, and said loudly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister's surname is Chu Xingqi, and the woman from the poor family is nameless, and she is called the Seven Lady." ”

When Emperor Zhizheng heard this, he interrupted Chu Qiniang's words and said with a smile: "If Chu Daoyou has creative ideas on the road to immortality, I will give you a name, so what's the matter." ”

Chu Qi Niangzi was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty!" Emperor Zhizheng said a name, not a name, this name is given, at least it is a real person, Chu Qi Niangzi listened, didn't you like it?

Emperor Zhizheng asked again: "Where do Daoyou come from, and what sect do you belong to?"

Chu Qi Niangzi said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is from the north of Yanshan, as for which sect he belongs to, the minister is a refiner." ”

Emperor Zhizheng's eyes lit up, "Refining, there have been body refiners and qi refiners in the front, Daoyou, what is the difference between you, a virtual refiner, a body refiner, and a qi refiner?"

Chu Qi Niangzi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, as the name suggests, the body refiner refines the body, the qi refiner refines the qi, we refine the void, but what we refine is the heart, the heart is the mind, the mind can pass the spirit, we refine the void, what we refine is actually the soul consciousness." ”

When Xu Mo heard this, his heart suddenly moved, soul consciousness, isn't that the spiritual consciousness of the sixth sense?

But when he heard Emperor Zheng's 'oh', he hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?"

Chu Qi Niangzi said: "Back to Your Majesty, with the progress of cultivation, people's souls are getting stronger and stronger. ”

Emperor Zhizheng thought for a while, and then said, "Daoist friends, would you like to show your magical powers?"

Chu Qi Niangzi replied loudly: "Your Majesty's orders, how dare you disobey?" Your Majesty, please let someone bring a sheep or a cow." ”

When Emperor Zhizheng heard the order, someone immediately brought a sheep over. This sheep was brought from the restaurant of the Changsheng Academy, and Emperor Zheng gave a banquet at noon, which required a lot of beef, mutton, and pork, all of which were freshly killed, so it was not difficult to find a live sheep to come over.

Chu Qi Niangzi walked up to the sheep, stretched out her hand and gently stroked the sheep a few times, and the sheep bleated.

When Xu Mo saw this, he couldn't help but be surprised: what was she going to do? Could it be that her ability was already able to communicate with animals?

But seeing that Chu Qi Niangzi turned around, she said to Emperor Zhizheng: "Your Majesty, in order to show your magical powers, the minister wants to kill this sheep, please allow Your Majesty." ”

"That's right. Emperor Zhizheng waved his hand and immediately agreed to her.

"Your Majesty. Chu Qi Niangzi thanked her, reached out to the bun and touched it, and touched a silver hairpin, which was about ten centimeters. Holding down the sheep's head with one hand, he inserted the hairpin into the back of the sheep's neck.

When the hairpin was inserted, it was aimed at the sheep's brain, and the sheep struggled for a while before dying. As soon as Chu Qiniang let go, the sheep corpse fell to the ground.

But seeing Chu Qi Niangzi turn around, she said to Emperor Zhizheng: "Your Majesty, this sheep is dead, and due to the ingenuity of the ministers, its soul has not left the body for the time being. ”

Emperor Zhizheng said: "What do you want to show me?"

Chu Qi Niangzi said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister wants Your Majesty to see the soul of this sheep." ”

When Xu Mo heard this, he was even more shocked: What? She can even communicate with the soul of an animal? How...... How could it be? How could her sixth sense be stronger than mine? If it was so powerful, wouldn't her Psychic Whip be even more powerful?

Emperor Zhizheng was indescribably curious in his heart, and said with a smile: "I often hear people talk about ghosts, but I never know what ghosts look like. But I don't know what is the difference between this sheep ghost and a human ghost? Whether the human ghost looks like a human being, and whether the sheep ghost looks like a sheep. ”

Chu Qi Niangzi smiled: "What kind of form, but not necessarily." The soul is formless and substantial, and can be transformed into any shape, and what is thought in the heart is what the appearance of the soul is formed. People are smart and wise, sometimes they think of pigs, sometimes they think of dogs, and whatever they think of is what they are, so what they show is not necessarily a person, it may be a pig or a dog. But the sheep's thinking is simple, and most of the people who turn out are still sheep. ”

Emperor Zhizheng was even more curious, "Since this is the case, please ask Daoyou to quickly make it appear and let me take a look." ”

Chu Qi Niangzi was embarrassed: "Your Majesty, when it comes to making it visible, the minister's mana is low, and there is no means for the time being, so you can only use external forces to indirectly let Your Majesty see it through other methods, and ask Your Majesty to atone for your sins."
