With enough fairy coins, Cheng Ling no longer had to worry about daily livelihood. He asked Mu Yan to buy a large manor in the snow city, and took the two brothers and sisters over as his housekeeper. If you need to go hunting again, you only need to be responsible for managing the manor.
The manor was very large, with two courtyards at the front and back. Several acres of medicinal fields were cultivated in the front yard. Cheng Ling taught Mu Yan the art of growing herbal medicines. He also traded with the medicine shops in Xuecheng. The income from the medicinal herbs alone was enough to maintain daily expenses.
As the housekeeper of the courtyard, Mu Qing was responsible for all trivial matters and money transactions. At first, she was not used to it, but later she gradually became familiar with her. She became famous both inside and outside Xuecheng, and was known as Lady Mu. Her status was greatly improved, and she also It eliminates the trouble of matchmakers coming to your door from time to time.
As for the backyard, it is Cheng Ling's residence. He paints in the room every day and rarely goes out. With the gap in status, the two brothers Mu Yan and Mu Qing's attitude towards Cheng Ling changed greatly, and everyone called him Young Master.
Cheng Ling was noncommittal. Firstly, he wanted to calm down and paint so that he could recover as soon as possible. Secondly, the two brothers and sisters were kind to him. Cheng Ling was very kind to him, so he naturally hoped that they could relax. Besides, he had no thoughts about a small courtyard. Go manage.
In fact, this idea was also based on the fact that the monk who bought his paintings received a considerable amount of wealth, but he didn't know that he would not cause any trouble. After getting those immortal coins, he decided not to sell the paintings anymore. After all, it was unbelievable that a mortal could integrate the laws of heaven of water and fire into paintings.
As the days passed, Cheng Ling still maintained the habit of painting every day. His paintings are getting better and better, and they are becoming more and more grand, from water droplets and sparks at the beginning, to lakes, rivers, waterfalls, oceans, mountain fires, forest fires, metal burning fires, liquid burning fires... ....
Whether it is water or fire, they are all vivid, as if they are in the world in the painting. People can feel enough water vapor and heat. The secrets of water and fire in the painting are becoming more and more intense. Cheng Ling believes that as long as a monk with a little understanding can see himself After the paintings, it is easy to understand the secrets of water and fire.
It's just that he didn't take out these paintings, but collected them in one place, and occasionally showed them to Mu Yan and Mu Qing. Unfortunately, the two brothers and sisters seemed to have no spiritual roots, and they couldn't understand the artistic conception of the paintings at all. .
Five years passed quickly, and Mu Yan and Mu Qing's life became more and more prosperous. As early as a year ago, Mu Yan got married, married a wife, and was already eight months pregnant. When the melon is ripe and the stems fall off, a baby can be born.
As for Mu Qing, they have also reached the point of discussing marriage. The target is a teacher in the next city. He will marry Mu Yan when his child is born, and the responsibilities of the housekeeper of the Cheng family will be taken over by his sister-in-law. Perhaps due to Cheng Ling's influence, Mu Qing's concept of scholars has changed drastically, and she no longer rejects them, and now she is still willing to get married.
Cheng Ling was happy to see all this happen, and even went out to meet with the man. From his perspective, he could naturally see that the man was an honest and honest man, and he would definitely be bullied to death by Mu Qing in the future. After nodding in agreement, he also promised to send a generous dowry.
But when he returned to the backyard, his brows furrowed. It has been almost seven years since I came to Xuecheng. During these seven years, I have been painting non-stop every day, and almost 90% of the cold poison and fire poison in my body have been released. Now I have fully recovered my normal mobility, and am better than ordinary monks. powerful.
Of course, this only refers to the strength of the spiritual body. After dispelling 90% of the poison entangled in the body, the spiritual body has returned to the eighth level, but the last remaining bit is still stubborn and cannot be completely eliminated. The space in the body is still closed, and the immortal energy cannot be mobilized. .
Through his insights over the past few years, he gradually understood that he must have hit a bottleneck. The space in the body can only be unsealed on its own. After all, the space you own is different from others. It is a complete universe of life, and any universe of life has its own unique existence of heaven.
From the initial formation of the inner space to the blockade, every improvement in cultivation represents a deepening of the understanding of the way of heaven. Those in the immortal world and the disciples of the way of heaven in the inner space go together. Every deepening of understanding can be fed back to the inner space. On the contrary, the inner space After improvement, feedback will also be formed.
Therefore, the best way to unblock the internal space is to deepen your understanding of the heavenly realm. Since coming to the Immortal Realm, everything has been in vain. Especially recently, my practice has been full of killings, whether in the Bloody Wasteland, the Netherworld Demon Realm, the Netherworld Realm, the Sea Clan, the Zhongyuan Continent... and so on. wait.
This kind of life is incomplete. If you want to truly understand the way of heaven, you must start from scratch and start with the details just like painting.
During these hundreds of years of monastic life, he has been practicing various spiritual roots. The Nine Yang True God he saw in the golden page space was the nine-attribute perfect spiritual root monk. It can be deduced from this that the inner space derived from the golden pages must contain the multi-attribute heaven. Therefore, it is obviously not enough to re-understand the mysteries of water and fire through paintings. I need to understand more heaven.
Unconsciously, Cheng Ling's state of mind slowly changed. Gradually, he had a vague understanding, but this understanding flashed by like lightning, too fast to catch.
He was silent for a while, smiled calmly, and said, "That's all, wait a few more months, and it's time to see the wider world outside."
Two months later, Mu Yan's daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby boy successfully, and Cheng Ling named him Mu Ying. A month later, Mu Qing dressed up to get married, and Cheng Ling made a painting for her and Mu Ying respectively. Fold it into a blessing of peace and tell Mu Yan and Mu Qing to wear it at all times.
Although these two paintings cannot understand the artistic conception of water and fire, they can ensure that the two people have a safe and smooth life, good health, and that ordinary evil viruses cannot invade.
After that, he told Mu Yan that he was going to travel far away, and he would leave the manor to the two of them to take care of it, and he would naturally come back in the future.
Snowflakes were falling. Cheng Ling, wearing a raincoat and a wine gourd hanging around her waist, walked out of the snow city for the first time in seven years.
The gourd contained the Sanhua Qingye wine he brewed himself, which could ward off the cold and replenish physical strength. Mu Yan's family of three took him ten miles outside the city gate before watching him gradually disappear into the heavy snow.
Zhongyuan Continent is vast and boundless, and there are hundreds of millions of monks in it. Similarly, the number of mortals has also reached a very terrifying number.
While Cheng Ling was walking, he saw some passers-by, all of whom were carrying luggage. He was the only one who didn't have any packages. This attracted the attention of passers-by. After pondering for a while, he broke off some branches from both sides of the official road, woven them into a small frame with his own hands, and carried them behind his back. Then he broke off a lot of leaves and vegetation and threw them into the small frame.
Walking on the official road, in just a few hours, he saw many mortals or warriors, riding tall horses, whizzing by. These people did not even glance at Cheng Ling walking on the roadside.
Every time a horse passed by, a snowflake would kick up. Cheng Ling didn't mind. He patted the snowflakes on his body and continued walking. This time, he chose the south. He had been watching the snow scene for seven years, but he really missed the red flowers and green willows in the south.
Just as he was looking forward to it, a strong wind came from behind. On one side of Cheng Ling's body, he saw a black horse, almost touching his body and rubbing against him. Immediately afterwards, several more horses roared over.
One of them was about to hit Cheng Ling. At this moment, the strong man on the horse tugged the horse's rein quickly and hard, but when he heard a rapid neigh, the horse's front hooves suddenly shot up. Lift it up and tilt it to the side.
After walking a few steps on the ground, the horse stopped. The strong man on it glared, waved the riding crop in his hand, and struck the head like Cheng Ling. At the same time, he shouted: "Where did the blind man come from?" , no eyes!”
Cheng Ling frowned. He didn't seem to see the whip at all. But the moment the whip hit his body, the strong man on the horse suddenly felt a strong backlash. He staggered. He fell off his horse, with a trace of fear in his eyes, pointed at Cheng Ling and said, "You...who are you?"
Cheng Ling turned his head, glanced at him indifferently, and said: "Such a wide official system is enough for you to ride on. If you offend again, don't blame me for being cruel!"
The strong man suddenly fell silent and did not dare to say a word.
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head, turned around and continued to move forward. Along the way, he once again saw many horses roaring past, as if something was happening ahead.
After walking like this for more than two hours, he finally saw a group of people listening by the official road. Judging from their costumes and the carts of goods leaning on the roadside, it looked like a caravan.
At this moment, the strong man he had threatened before also chased after him on horseback.
Cheng Ling was slightly unhappy. This man was so troublesome that he insisted on destroying his state of mind. Just as he was about to have an attack, the strong man galloped ten meters in front of him, but he turned over, looked around, raised his hands and asked, "Is this young man a doctor?"
Cheng Ling suddenly woke up when he saw his eyes fixed on the small frame on his back. He didn't want to pay attention to it, but a thought came to his mind. Since he wanted to understand the way of heaven, he had to experience all the human feelings and sophistication in this world, so he might as well take the opportunity to integrate into it.
He nodded slowly at that moment, which was regarded as acquiescence.
The strong man was overjoyed and ran towards the caravan. He came to a carriage, stuck his head in and spoke to the people on the carriage.
After a while, an old man came over with four strong men. Cheng Ling saw that their temples were bulging high. They were obviously warriors with advanced cultivation.
The old man came to him and looked him up and down for a while, then asked: "I heard that you are a doctor practicing medicine, but you are so young?"
Cheng Ling said: "Old man, you don't have to be 70 or 80 years old to be a doctor, right?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's not my fault, it's like this, one of the maids in our convoy is sick. The nearest city is still seven days away, and she hasn't even taken the prescription prescribed by the accompanying doctor. Relief, since my friend is a doctor, what can I do?"
Cheng Ling glanced at the carriage and said, "Let me see the patient."
The old man smiled bitterly and said: "My little friend, do you have any medicine that can relieve the pain? If not, just don't look at it."
Cheng Ling grinned and said, "You old man is so interesting. I haven't even seen the patient, and I don't know what her symptoms are or how to give you medicine."
The old man looked back at the carriage and frowned again, obviously something was wrong.
At this moment, a voice came from the carriage: "Uncle Song, let him come and take a look. Doctors are all over the world. Maybe there is a way to cure this person."
The old man quickly agreed and said to Cheng Ling, "My little friend, I'm in trouble."
Cheng Ling nodded briefly and followed the old man towards the carriage.
