Chapter 3: The Birth of the Stars

Lin Xiuzhu waited outside the Danfang for half an hour, the wooden door of the Danfang opened, and the palace master Shangguan Qing pushed the door out and said to the four of her: [Sisters, the four of you also come in. ]

Lin Xiuzhu, Liu Junjun, Wen Ping, and Cai Yunji followed the palace master into the Dan room.

The wooden collapse in the Dan room has been blocked by a screen, and the sisters can't see what's inside, and the sisters have been waiting outside for a long time, and they can't help but peek there curiously.

[Come, sisters, sit down and speak.] ]

Qin Yun and Meilan Zhuju four palaces, around Shangguan Qing sit on the mat, on weekdays this mat is used by Qin Yun to teach the law, the thick mat is divided into three layers, the bottom is hay, the middle is spread with cotton wool, covered with brocade cloth. Therefore the mat is soft, not hard and cold.

Shangguan Qing casually lit a piece of sandalwood and inserted it into the copper reel next to the table. She straightened up and said: [Four sisters, Fang Gong and Sister Yun tried their best to rescue, but the righteous man was too injured and died, tomorrow I will bury him in the back mountain, and the four sisters will take care of this matter. ]

The four flag palaces were slightly surprised when they heard this, and couldn't help but turn their heads and muttered in a low voice.

[The man was finally not saved...... ]

[Thick burial?...... Back Mountain?]

[Look, that kid is actually fine, the Yun Palace Master is really powerful, and he deserves to be a four-rank Dan master!]

Lin Xiuzhu didn't speak but frowned, the dead man came from an unknown place, and he was a man, how could he be buried in the back mountain, which has always been the place where the sisters of Qimei Palace were buried after their deaths. Since the palace master took charge of Qi Mei, he has never had a good face for men, so why does it seem to be a little different this time.

Shangguan Qing said: [I know that the four of you will mumble, before this person died, he told a rough story about his appearance]

[The child was orphaned by his master, and he desperately saved him from danger and fled here.] I just undressed him and examined his wounds, do you know how many sword wounds he had on his body? Except for the place where he was guarding the child on his chest, his body was full of wounds, and the bones were divided. Bengong guessed that in danger, in order to protect the little master, he used his own flesh and blood to face the sword. , such a heroic man, this palace can only admire. So, no matter where he came from, right or wrong, a good burial!]

After the women heard this, everyone showed an unbearable look on their faces, they were all flesh and blood, and it was really rare to use their bodies as a shield to save people and forcibly break through the bloody rain.

Shangguan Qing, who was usually as cold as ice, took the sleeping child from Qin Yun's arms, and couldn't help but gently pinch his little face.

This child is cute, with a chubby face, one of the two fat little hands is raised next to the fat face, and the other thumb is cocked and handed to his mouth to suck it...... He was asleep, not knowing if he had dreams at a young age, and he couldn't see his expression in his closed eyes, only the long black eyelashes on his eyelids kept fluttering.

Shangguan Qing was unusual, and lovingly hugged the boy to the other five:

[The righteous man said that the child's father's surname is Qu, sister Xiuzhu, you love to read and write the most on weekdays, you give him a name.] ]

Lin Xiuzhu looked at the sleeping child in the palace master's arms, and thought to himself that this child was so pitiful, he was born with such a catastrophe and lost his parents. Give him a good name, so that he will rejoice when he hears his name called.

Lin Xiuzhu pondered for a moment, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed: [Back to the palace master, then call him Qu Xingchen?]

Shangguan Qing read the name all over again: [Qu Xingchen?...... Sister Xiuzhu means that he fell into my Qimei Palace out of thin air, like a star falling to the ground? Well, it's a good name. Okay, it's called Qu Xingchen, a milk meteor. ]

[Let this child stay in the palace from now on, and the four of you will take turns to take care of him, and when he is older, the palace will take him under the door.] ]

When the other five girls heard this, they were immediately surprised and inexplicable, and they all stared at Shangguan Qing with big and beautiful eyes. It's just a matter of burying the righteous people, after all, there are not a few righteous people among women, and the palace master treats the righteous well, and everyone can understand it. can take this child under the door, this is the blockbuster news of Qimei Palace for decades.

On weekdays, the mountain gate of Qimei Palace also allows tourists to enter the incense, but those who can enter the mountainside are daughters without exception. This man came and went, and after a long time, there were many women who wanted to ask someone to worship their offspring in Qi Mei. After all, in the hearts of ordinary people, first of all, regardless of the difference between men and women, the people on Qimei Mountain are all immortals, and they are superior to others. But in the past few decades, no matter whether the person who asks for the door is poor or rich, and what the qualifications of the children sent, this Qimei Six Palaces has never accepted a boy. Even girls have to be selected and checked at all levels.

The palace master Shangguan Qing ignored the puzzled eyes of the women, she got up and handed over the Qu Xingchen in her arms to Qin Yun, and then walked out of the Dan room.

The Four Flags Palace was a little afraid of the cold-faced palace master on weekdays, so he didn't dare to ask out just now, but when he saw the palace master leaving, he changed his posture and gathered around Qin Yun to ask this and that.

[Sister Yun, is what the palace master just said true?

[Yes, yes, it's really big news, Sister Yun, tell me why the palace master made an exception this time?]

[Little guy, you have a name, Qu Xingchen, Little Meteor...... Hmm, Sister Yun, hug him for me. ]

Qin Yun handed the child to Liu Junjun, who looked eager, and took Lin Xiuzhu's little hand and walked towards the screen.

The dead Qi Yun was lying flat on the wooden collapse, and a faint smile remained on his handsome face, presumably after keeping the master's bloodline, his heart got what he wanted, and he let go of his heart. Lin Xiuzhu looked at it, and there was a faint pain in her heart, for some reason, she saw one side, and she was reluctant to give up on this man's death.

[Bamboo ...... Sister Xiuzhu!] Qin Yun's voice came from her ears, it turned out that Lin Xiuzhu lost her mind for a short time, she blushed, bowed her head and said: [Sister, where did he come from with this person, did he tell my sister about you?]

Qin Yun picked up the two objects next to the collapse and handed them to Lin Xiuzhudao: [He said that he was from Jinhuaxing, and even the palace master didn't know anything about it. These things, you have to take care of the three girls outside, don't mention them on weekdays, after all, you died in the pursuit of the enemy, in case someone finds you in the future, you can't hide from Qi Yun's cultivation, and it will definitely bring ruin to our Qimei Palace]

[The palace lord buried him in the back mountain, because he was afraid that the matter would spread out.] And most importantly...... When Qin Yun said this, he lowered his voice and glanced out, and found that the three people outside were fighting to hug the little meteor.

She leaned into Lin Xiuzhu and whispered in her ear: [This little boy you picked up, I'm afraid that he is a cultivation wizard, and when the palace master protects his heart for him, I found that the palace master was surprised, but if she didn't say it, you and I couldn't make a noise. Got it?]

[Yes, Sister Yun, Xiuzhu is all at my sister's command. ]

[Good sister, you keep these two things, they were left by Qi Yun to the child.] Qin Yun said, handing her a ring and a slender wooden box.

[In the future, the four of you will take care of this child to grow up, in my opinion, they Mei Lanju three palace masters are out of character, this child is probably still going to Xiuzhu sister, you are interested. ] ]

[Sister rest assured, Xiuzhu will take care of it.] Lin Xiuzhu put the ring and the wooden box into his wide sleeves and replied softly.

The sisters of the four palaces gathered in the Danfang for a while, and sure enough, it didn't take long for them to find excuses to leave. Only Lin Xiuzhu is the youngest in the fourth palace, just in his early twenties, and the flag palaces of the other three palaces are basically in their forties. But they can sit in the position of the Flag Palace, and the worst ones are the foundation of success.

In this heaven and earth, there are only three realms of cultivation, practicing qi, building a foundation, and forming a pill. The outside world is like the Jinhua Star cultivation realm, and forming a golden pill is the new starting point of the true cultivation path. And these women like Qi Mei Palace, and even the five major sects and corpse chasers factions, all thought that knotting Dan was the ultimate goal of cultivation. This is really strange, in fact, the cultivation method here is a big lie and conspiracy, and it will slowly emerge later.

When it comes to building a foundation, if ordinary people have the talent for cultivation, they can perceive heaven and earth, and introduce the thin spiritual power in the earth into the body to turn into true qi, this stage is Qi training, and most people will spend their lives in the Qi training period due to their limited qualifications, and they will not be able to break through to the next realm. It can be roughly said that if 50 out of 100 people can enter the Qi cultivation period, only 5 of these 50 people can enter the foundation building realm, and it can basically be said that there is no one in ten.

After the foundation is built, the human body can continue to guide the true qi in the body, forge and nourish the body, so there is a saying to prolong life and delay aging. As long as you build a successful foundation, it is equivalent to you having a hundred years longer than ordinary people. How many years can ordinary people live? Seventy or eighty? Therefore, today, there are many cultivators, and if nothing else, no one can refuse the mere mention of longevity.

Lin Xiuzhu of the Bamboo Palace is the cultivation genius of Qimei Palace, practicing qi at the age of seven, and stepping into the foundation building at the age of nineteen. Under the great joy of the palace master, the original three palaces of heaven, earth and man were changed to four palaces of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.

Speaking of Mei Lanju's three palaces leaving under the pretext of cultivation, Lin Xiuzhu, who was left by Qin Yunchao, smiled apologetically, and she brought the little meteor back to the Bamboo Palace.

Back in the palace, the mountains were cold, and for fear of freezing small meteors, Lin Xiuzhu asked the maid Ayaka to build a stove, but after a while, the room was as warm as spring.

That Ayaka is sixteen years old, a little precocious, and she has grown into a big girl, especially with a bumpy body, she is very big where a woman should be, so the sisters in the palace often joke with her about this. While adding firewood to the stove, she asked Lin Xiuzhu: [Sister Xiuzhu, if this little guy wakes up in a while, what will he eat?]

Lin Xiuzhu was obviously stunned and said: [Yes, I actually forgot to prepare food for him, but he is only this size, only milk is good?] After speaking, she turned her head and looked at Ayaka's chest......

Ayaka's little face turned red, and she covered her chest with her hands and said, "[Phew...... Sister, where do you look, I don't have ...... ]

Lin Xiuzhu saw her blushing face, and sneered: [Silly girl, my sister is joking with you, I'll go down the mountain to find a few goats and come back.] ]

After that, Lin Xiuzhu handed over the boy to Ayaka and explained how to take care of it, and she hurriedly went down the mountain at night.

Unbeknownst to her, shortly after she descended the mountain, the boy woke up and cried because there was no food. And that Ayaka girl, child-like, teasing left and right, but the child is crying louder and louder.

In the end, Ayaka, who was tortured to the point of collapse, hugged the boy to her chest, and learned the way she had seen adults breastfeeding when she was a child, she bit her lip and blushed, and slowly untied her clothes............

Winter nights are cold as ice, and the interior is warm as a tide.
