After being out of Dongshan City for many days, Yun Zhong's manic and depressive energy has faded away for the most part. Even when practicing swordsmanship, he still gets a little angry because of the subtleties of his moves that are not handled properly, but it is not like those days before. My heart can't calm down for a while.
Perhaps the elder brother Liu Qing deliberately delayed the trip, and the two of them were not going very fast. Moreover, the sky was gradually getting colder. Although the rammed goods were not ordinary things, the strong autumn feeling gradually cooled down, and they were slightly affected by it. Influence.
Dongshan City walked southwest for a few days and was not far from Huixi, the imperial capital of Yizhang. Therefore, Liu Qing thought about taking his junior brother to Huixi Imperial City to have a look, which would help Yun Zhong's still unstable state of mind. A little sparseness can also increase your knowledge.
"Senior brother." Yun Zhong had just recovered from the night, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky outside the car tent was hazy and unclear. He immediately felt a little bored, so he opened his eyes with considerable effort, and gently opened his eyes. Called senior brother.
Liu Qing also circulates Qi every day, but mostly he makes some sporadic efforts. For example, when the road ahead is flat and there are no obstacles or other car tents, he sits cross-legged, slightly squinting his eyelids, and uses a stick of incense to circulate Qi, and then Keep on your way. As a result, nearly all the driving tasks all day long fell on Liu Qing.
Yun Zhong was naturally reluctant to this. How could he leave all matters such as driving and feeding horses to his senior brother when he was away from home? Even if others don't know that the two are senior brothers, it still makes the young man feel uneasy. He competes with his senior brother for the driving job over and over again, but he can never defeat the senior brother who is usually very mild-tempered.
Whenever he saw the young man picking up the riding whip with some anger, the scholar would always say warmly that the Lian Yuan realm is to collect the inner Qi in the acupoints and make it gather into the Dantian. When the inner Qi is full and overflows, then it can be broken. Entering the second realm; if you don't rest properly, part of the internal energy gained from moving qi at night will be lost, which is not conducive to breaking into the second realm.
As for Wu Shuang and the young man taking turns to watch the night, Liu Qing just smiled and said that the master naturally had his own considerations and plans. Before reaching the realm, he must first make his mind clear and upright, so there is no way to indulge.
In Yun Zhong's view, the scholar's formation methods were incomprehensible. Even if he sometimes messed up and forcibly grabbed the reins and whip, Liu Qing would knock him down with his fingers, and then put him at the back of the carriage, ordering him to He rested a little longer. The formation practice has reached Liu Qing's level, and it can slightly disturb the spiritual energy of the world. Even if the young man tried his best to open his eyes, he would inevitably fall asleep in the senior brother's formation in the end, unable to find any way to break the formation.
The scholar has never been domineering, but if he really made up his mind, it was not easy for Yun Zhong to persuade him. Even if the young man kicked his hands and feet and did not hesitate to act mischievously, the scholar remained unmoved and just pinched his fingers gently.
When the boy woke up again, it was already after noon.
Now hearing Yun Zhong's call, Liu Qing turned around, her face still calm and gentle, and said, "Junior brother, what's the matter? Yesterday I saw that your Qi was much more stable than a while ago. It seems that the two realms are not too far away. , good thing.”
Yun Zhong held his forehead and smiled bitterly. Maybe he had not slept all night, and his mind was a little hazy. He said vaguely, "Is it better to go to Yizhang capital? It has been many days since I entered Yizhang territory. I guess Master has been waiting a little." I’m anxious, and the Qiuhu spirit in my belly is still a little restless, why don’t we go back to the mountain as soon as possible?”
The scholar frowned slightly.
After leaving Dongshan City, Yun Zhong told his senior brother Liu Qing how he entered Mocheng and how he obtained Qiuhu's divine will. But Liu Qing tried every means, but still couldn't find out what was so strange about Qiu Lake.
That day in the deep alley, Qiuhu's divine will in the young man's Dantian absorbed the sword light, and then turned it all into pure inner energy. This magical power alone should have been out of the category of heavenly objects. Even Liu Qing did not know this. How should things belong? However, after trying every possible means, nothing was found.
The scholar sighed, reined in the horse's head for the time being, and handed the water bag in his hand to the young man. He lowered his head and stepped into the carriage and sat down. He slowly said, "I was thinking that I would show you more about Yi Zhang's people's livelihood along the way. At the same time, it will increase your knowledge and make your state and mind more stable. There are no years in mountain practice. If a person is in retreat, the years will pass by like water. Therefore, before going up the mountain, there are many Take a look at everything in the world. But now it seems that this matter needs to be considered in the long term."
Unexpectedly, the young man did not look disappointed at all. He took the water bag and took a sip of water. He wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeves and said with a smile, "Junior brother was originally a lazy boy from an unknown town in Shangqi. , If it hadn’t been for the master’s favor, who led me through the door and out of the town, I’m afraid I would still be in that remote town, running for that bowl of warm wontons.”
"I have learned a lot along the way. I have bitten off more than I can chew, and I have wasted a lot of money. I will never be able to reach the second realm. It is better to go back to the mountain early and meet the master and the other two senior brothers."
The young man spoke eloquently, but his face was still bright.
How could he not know that his own realm was progressing slowly? Although Qiuhu had reshaped many meridians, whether compared to his master Wu Shuang or the senior brother Liu Qing in front of him, his progress was really slow. Oxen plow the ridge, step by step.
There are all monsters in this sect, but the weight on the person who is not a monster must be as heavy as a mountain, how can this be an empty lie?
Liu Qing rarely remained silent for a long time.
Since Wulingpo, this Nangongshan senior brother has never mentioned the matter of breaking through the realm. Generally speaking, how long does it take? He just took the trouble to tell Yun Zhong that cultivation cannot be achieved overnight. Since the whole body has been connected with hundreds of meridians, it has been It's God's favor. As for what will happen in the future, there is no need to think about it too often, causing the state of mind to be impure.
But he never said whether the young man entered the country quickly or slowly.
"I have been tired for a long time. I have been unwilling to do hard work such as schoolwork since I was a child. Later, I went to split firewood in Master's teahouse. Initially, it was just to earn more coppers. Doing these things has never been related to my hobbies. It is nothing more than a hobby. I want to make my parents feel more at ease, or to make my life easier, but I have never been able to do what I want to do." The young man leaned against the car window, turned his face to the window, closed his eyes and spoke, "Now it's easy to fall in love with sword training. Of course I want to do these two things well. As for how far I can practice in the end, just like the old man in Dongshan City, just liking it is enough. "
"I have spent almost a year on the road enjoying the scenery. I would like to thank my master and brothers."
The young man murmured.
The scholar looked at the gloomy dusk sky outside, and at the incomprehensible look on the young man's face, turned his horse's head toward the southwest, and smiled.
There are many people with extraordinary talents and qualifications in the mountains.
However, people in Leshan are benevolent, so there is no need to worry about who stands on the top of the mountain.
Nangong Mountain has no shortage of talented people, but it lacks a younger junior brother who is as interesting and insightful as Yun Zhong.
"Junior brother, let's go home."
