The third time, Qi training
Zhang Tong was worried, facing the cold wind, sitting in the car, thinking crankily in his heart, and unconsciously arrived in Liuyi Town. The carriage passed by, and did not stop for a moment, until the sky grew dark, and after about fifty or sixty miles, I saw a shadow in the distance, showing the outline of a town.
Zhang Tong estimated that most of the people would have to stay here tonight, but he hadn't figured out Zhen Yuandao's temper yet, so he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he hurriedly asked in the car: "Master, there is a market ahead, it's not early in the morning, do you think we want to stay overnight?"
Zhen Yuandao didn't know what to do in the carriage, he was suddenly interrupted, he was a little impatient, and said coldly: "These trivial matters, you just have to call the shots, don't bother me again!"
Zhang Tong heard that Zhen Yuandao's voice was not good, so he quickly responded, and no longer dared to make noise. But he secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that my master really did what he said, and accepted me to solve all kinds of miscellaneous things, saving him from worrying about everywhere and delaying his energy in vain." In this way, I don't have to be polite, I can make my own decisions, as long as I am in order and don't miss the trip. ”
Zhang Tong made up his mind, and when the carriage arrived in the town, he no longer asked for instructions, and was quite resolute, and chose an inn to settle down. asked Zhen Yuandao for a clean room, ordered someone to prepare the food, and sent hot water to the house. He was an expert in these, and he was extremely quick before and after.
Zhen Yuandao was also as he said, ignoring all of them, just meditating on his knees, his eyes slightly closed, and the old god was there. waited until Zhang Tong was all busy, then nodded slightly, and his original indifferent expression was also a little more praised, called him to his side, and said: "Seeing that you are also clever, it is not in vain that I accepted you as an apprentice, since you have entered my door, you must remember my origin, so that you can meet your fellow disciples in the future." ”
This whole day, Zhang Tong was frightened and busy, and he was already very tired. But when he heard this, he immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly took a moment to recuperate, respectfully, and said, "Please teach Master." ”
Zhen Yuandao waved his hand impatiently, and said, "My family doesn't talk about these false courtesies, you don't need to be so cautious when you follow me in the future." ”
Zhang Tong was slightly stunned, and hurriedly responded "yes", but he didn't dare to take Zhen Yuandao's words seriously, and still stood aside cautiously.
Zhen Yuandao knew that he was cautious by nature, so he simply didn't distinguish between them, and directly continued: "I have been teaching in Heshan Dao for thousands of years, and there are sixty-seven kinds of spells, all of which are extremely mysterious. In your lifetime, if you practice one, you will be able to use it endlessly. However, spells are branches and leaves, and qi training is the foundation. You need to practice diligently, and when you develop your true qi, you can actually practice spells. ”
Zhen Yuandao accepted Zhang Tong as an apprentice, which was originally a temporary support, and at this moment, he was naturally not very attentive to teaching him exercises. I only recited a mantra of more than 100 words, and then broke it down slightly twice, and sent him away.
Fortunately, Zhang Tong had an excellent memory, memorized all the formulas, and after returning to the room, he quickly transcribed them. Then carefully figure out the meaning, back and forth no less than dozens of times. Coupled with Zhen Yuandao's explanation before, it actually made him feel a mysterious feeling, as if the whole person was wrapped in a slowly flowing air current.
Zhang Tong had an idea, and tried to use the mantra to introduce the air flow around him into his body. It's a pity that those air currents are so slippery that he can't catch them with his mind. It took more than half an hour to exhaust him from exhaustion, and only then did he catch a trace of airflow. But as the air flow was introduced into the body, it immediately disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Tong couldn't help but be a little disappointed, he couldn't hold on any longer, his thoughts scattered, and he fell asleep on the bed. The next day, before dawn, he woke up, and instead of being the slightest tired, he was full of energy.
Zhang Tong was surprised and delighted, and his heart became more and more convinced, it must be Zhen Yuandao's mantra yesterday that concealed many mysteries. He has only cultivated a little, and he has already gained a lot of benefits, and if he goes on for a long time in the future, he doesn't know how powerful it will be. ...,
He thought about it for a while, and was even more interested, and was about to carry the mantra again, when he suddenly felt a bloating in his abdomen, but he had drunk a few more cups of tea during the meal last night.
At this time, he had just touched the path of qi training, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed, but he was helpless, so he hurriedly lifted his pants and went outside to go to the thatched house.
This inn was originally not large, and the guest rooms were divided into two floors, because in winter, business travel was not prosperous, and almost all of them were empty. Zhang Tong and Zhen Yuandao lived in the upper room on the second floor, and the three coachmen were arranged on the first floor.
Originally, there was a toilet in the guest room, but Zhang Tong thought it was too smelly, so he ordered someone to move it out beforehand. I didn't expect to cause trouble to myself, so I had to touch the dark and go downstairs for convenience.
Fortunately, there was still a little moonlight in the sky at this time, and he was also quick with his hands and feet by means of the light. I went downstairs and put a stream of water, and I came back to continue cultivating. Unexpectedly, as soon as I went up to the second floor, I was about to turn around and enter the house, when I suddenly found that in the corridor, there were many shadows, as if there was a figure.
Zhang Tong was startled, in the middle of the night, it was silent, could it be that he had met a ghost? But he changed his mind again, and suddenly remembered that his master has great powers, even if he really encounters a ghost, what is there to be afraid of. I can't help but be bold, so I can take a moment and take a closer look.
I saw the figure dressed in black, standing in front of the door of the guest room, tiptoeing around, sneaky, I don't know what to do. It's a pity that it's dark, and the man has his back to him, so he can't tell what he looks like, but he looks a little familiar.
Zhang Tong peeped at the same time, and secretly suspicious, thinking: "Only Master and I live upstairs tonight, this person must be uneasy and kind when he comes at night." ”
After thinking about it, he wanted to drink through the man's hide, beckoned Zhen Yuandao to come out, and captured the man together. But when the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered that this person came to visit in the starry night, and he must not be an ordinary person, most of them were Zhen Yuandao's old enemies. He couldn't help but hesitate a little, and secretly thought in his heart: "This person is silent, and when he comes to the master's door, his ability must be extraordinary. If I reveal his whereabouts now, it would be fine for Master to come out and arrest him, but if Master can't catch him either, won't I be hated for nothing!"
It's rare for him to cross over once, and he has just touched the path of cultivation, and he cherishes his life more and more. With a secret plan in his stomach, he wanted to retreat downstairs and call a man to come up, so that he could scare the man away without showing his face.
Zhang Tong made up his mind and was about to turn around, but the governor backfired, and before he could retreat, the man discovered his whereabouts first, and suddenly turned his head to look over, with a pair of sharp eyes, like a wolf's eyes.
Zhang Tong couldn't help but shudder, afraid that the person was going to poison him, he didn't care about the previous jihua, he was in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted: "What person!"
That person didn't expect that Zhang Tong would go to the thatched house in the middle of the night. Listen to him scream, it's too late to stop him. Knowing that his deeds were revealed, the man was shocked and angry, and he hated to eat Zhang Tong alive.
Fortunately, at this time, Zhen Yuandao in the room suddenly shouted "sigh", and then he didn't know what spell he used, and suddenly a five-colored light mask shone up.
The man seemed to be quite frightened, and when he saw the light mask together, he hurriedly retreated. At the same time, he shook off a long black cloth banner, causing a dark cloud to cover himself. Then he sneered and said, "Zhen Yuandao, I came here this time just to give you a warning, and I will come back in the future, and I will see you later!" The voice fell, but I saw that his shoulders were shaking, rolling up the dark cloud, whistling, and rushing straight out of the window.
Zhen Yuandao had other concerns and did not chase after him, and after forcing the man back, he took Guangxia away, and there was no sound anymore. Only Zhang Tong was left to hide next to the stairs and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he was afraid that the person would go and return, so he hurriedly rushed to Zhen Yuandao's room, asked, and knocked on the door to enter.
Zhen Yuandao was still sitting cross-legged on the bed, but his face was not very good-looking, and after allowing him to come in, he eased up a little and said, "This time, I owe you to remind me as soon as possible, otherwise although I have a way to prevent it, I will need to spend a lot more hands and feet." ”
Zhang Tong hurriedly said: "The disciple is also a coincidence, and it is convenient to go downstairs at night, so I bumped into the whereabouts of that person." ”
Originally, Zhen Yuandao was still a little strange, he didn't even notice it just now, Zhang Tong is an ordinary man, how could he predict it in advance, at this time, after listening to the explanation, he was relieved.
Zhang Tong looked at Zhen Yuandao's face softened slightly, and originally wanted to find out who that person was just now, but after hesitating for a while, he still didn't dare to say more. He knew that this time, Zhen Yuandao was touched under his nose by the opponent, and he didn't realize it, which was already a big loss of face, and if he blindly grabbed and asked again, it would definitely make people unhappy.
Zhang Tong was exquisite, how could he touch the mold, just knocked on the side, and slapped a few sycophants to kill some time. After waiting for a while, it was expected that the man would not come again, so he wanted to use an excuse to go back to the room and continue to cultivate.
