In the afternoon, we returned to Wuchao Town and went straight to the grain store in the town.
The shopkeeper looked at the four sacks on his shoulders, his eyes lit up, and asked: "Master Liu Xiaoxian, is this Lingmi?"
Liu Xiaolou put down the sack and said, "It's the shopkeeper, Yao Yi Yao."
The shopkeeper beamed with joy, and immediately asked the two waiters to weigh the scales, and asked: "The little fairy came very early this year, the first one! Is it the spiritual rice from Eyang Mountain?"
Liu Xiaolou stared at the two waiters weighing the sacks, and said to the shopkeeper: "Apart from Eyang Mountain, where else can there be a spiritual field in western Hunan?"
Soon, the scale was over, and it was a total of three hundred and twenty-eight jins and six taels. This was Liu Xiaolou's gain from six days of hard work.
"I'll take the change and leave three hundred catties. The shopkeeper will give me a price." Liu Xiaolou said. As for spiritual rice, he just needs to taste it. He is alone, not from a spiritual family, and is not lucky enough to eat spiritual rice as rice. Three hundred kilograms of spiritual rice, how long will it take? I couldn’t digest it for half a year. Keeping these spiritual rice with the mountain every day and eating them one meal at a time is too wasteful of time. Is there any work left?
"Same as usual, one hundred kilograms of spiritual rice and one hundred and sixty taels of silver..."
"I don't want silver, I want spiritual stones. Shopkeeper, I know you have it. You don't have any use for it, so just give it to me in exchange."
"Haha... Lingshi is not easy to get..."
"Same as Eyang Mountain, one hundred kilograms of spiritual rice is exchanged for one spiritual stone."
"Haha, the little fairy is deceiving me that I am not a practitioner? Although I don't understand cultivation, I understand the market. The little fairy is talking about the fine at Eyang Mountain, not the market price."
"Then...a total of two spiritual stones, spare one hundred taels of silver! This is my first spiritual rice, fresh!"
"The little immortal master is joking. Three hundred kilograms of spiritual rice is worth one and a half spiritual stones. Of course, there is no such thing as half a stone. I will give you two hundred taels of silver."
"Shopkeeper, my teacher has just become an immortal and passed away, leaving me alone in the world, with no mercy..."
"What does this have to do with your teacher Xian Qu..."
After some negotiation, Liu Xiaolou finally left all three hundred kilograms of spiritual rice in the grain shop in exchange for two spiritual stones. The price was actually very good. The shopkeeper looked at the more than 20 kilograms of spiritual rice left in his bag and asked, "You won't sell it anymore?"
Liu Xiaolou smiled and said: "What does the rice that I have worked so hard to harvest taste like? You should try it. It's embarrassing to say that I have harvested Lingmi twice, but I have never eaten it seriously. I don't know. What does it feel like?"
The shopkeeper nodded: "Yes."
Just as he was about to deliver it, a group of people crowded around a young man and pushed Liu Xiaolou aside.
Liu Xiaolou was about to get angry, but he saw a person behind the young master sneered and pointed half of his sword at Liu Xiaolou. Most of the sword was still in the scabbard, but it was already glowing with the afterglow of the sword's light like frost.
Liu Xiaolou's anger was immediately extinguished, and he had no choice but to give in.
The young master didn't look at him seriously, but said to the shopkeeper with interest: "Yo? The first crop of spiritual rice? Is this rare? Do you also produce spiritual rice in western Hunan?"
The shopkeeper immediately greeted him with a smile: "This young master has extraordinary bearing. Who knows where he comes from?"
Someone replied on his behalf: "My family is from the Ouyang family in Yuezhou. I pass through this place. Don't think I can be bullied. I will do your business honestly and your benefits will be indispensable!"
The shopkeeper was surprised and said: "It turns out that the young master of Lianxi Hall is so polite! This is my Xiangxi Eyangshan spiritual rice. It has deep spiritual roots. Does the master have any intention?"
The young master asked: "Eyang Mountain?"
The man who had wielded his sword just now whispered in a low voice: "Master, we can't wait too long, we have to travel all night."
The young master nodded and said, "Then we won't go to Eyang Mountain and will bring all these back."
Liu Xiaolou couldn't bear it anymore: "This is my rice!"
The shopkeeper said: "You just sold it to me."
Liu Xiaolou said: "You haven't paid the spirit stone yet."
The young master couldn't bear their argument and asked Liu Xiaolou: "How much did you sell it to him?"
Liu Xiaolou replied: "He only gave two spiritual stones, and I was hesitating."
The young man glanced at the four sacks, nodded and said, "That's the price."
The shopkeeper said to Liu Xiaolou: "Look, my shop is the most fair..."
Before he finished speaking, the young man said to Liu Xiaolou: "I'll give you three yuan." After that, he wandered away and continued shopping along the street.
A group of servants behind him carried away the four sacks, and the sword-wielding entourage came over and threw three spiritual stones to Liu Xiaolou and followed closely.
Liu Xiaolou looked at their backs and sighed: "Big dog!"
The shopkeeper nodded: "The Ouyang family of Yuezhou is indeed a big family, so big that it's boundless..."
Liu Xiaolou felt around all over his body and finally took out the remaining twenty taels of silver and put it on the counter: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "It's just a coincidence."
Liu Xiaolou suddenly regretted: "I should have kept two kilograms, I haven't eaten it myself."
The shopkeeper said: "It is natural that farmers cannot eat their own rice! Just eat ordinary rice. Here, twenty kilograms is also new rice, which is enough for you to eat for a month."
Although he didn't eat his own rice, Liu Xiaolou was still very happy. He returned to Wulong Mountain and sat in Tian Bo's room for a while. He didn't hear anything, so he returned to his home in Qianzhuling.
A pound of new rice was put into the pot, and a large pot of rice porridge was cooked, which was fragrant.
The big white goose rushed over with fluttering wings, threw a fat fish into the pot, and circled around Liu Xiaolou's feet, as happy as if it was a festival. This time the entrails of the fat fish were taken out, and it actually cut the fish open?
Liu Xiaolou served it a bowl of fish porridge, and one person and one goose gathered in front of the stove, sucking and slurping away. It was a great meal!
It's a little regretful that I didn't eat the spiritual rice. Of course, the spiritual power contained in spiritual rice is very small. Even if you eat a large pot of it, only a few will be converted into true energy, which is of little use in practice. This kind of food must be eaten for a long time instead of ordinary rice, and it will be beneficial over time. It is undoubtedly a luxury for a poor family like Liu Xiaolou.
So it doesn't matter to Liu Xiaolou, after all, the three spiritual stones he got are the right way to practice.
A poor family cannot keep any surplus money. Liu Xiaolou did not want to delay for a moment and immediately entered a state of spiritual practice.
The Sanxuan Kung Fu operates, extracting the spiritual power from the spiritual stone in the palm, and refining it into pure true energy in the meridians of the body. It surges to the second point of the Jueyin Meridian of the hand - Tianquan, and taps continuously. Acupuncture points.
Liu Xiaolou didn't know how other people's exercises opened up the meridians, but his Sanxuanmen exercises were like this. The water-milling work was done time and time again, and it naturally included various changes, sometimes light, sometimes heavy, sometimes fast. Slowly, sometimes like a long stream of water, sometimes like a storm.
There seems to be no rules at all, but it has a consistent purpose of practice: all cultivation methods are based on responding to various feedbacks caused by the impact of acupuncture points. According to the various feelings brought about by the feedback, perform with different impact strategies.
Therefore, practicing the Sanxuan Kung Fu is not boring, but is very interesting, and even makes people addicted to it and unable to extricate themselves.
