Meeting is fate, acquaintance is fate, knowing each other is fate. If there is someone who can accompany you all the way, it is naturally a good thing.
In modern times, Chen Fan has someone he likes, but unfortunately he has never been embarrassed to say it, so he missed the time when the flowers bloomed and had to be broken. After traveling to this society, Chen Fan has not thought about this aspect. Mainly from Chen Fan's point of view, this body is still small. The main task at present is to integrate into this society. Survival is the first factor; and fate cannot be forced. of.
But now, the elder brother's words caused waves in Chen Fan's heart, but he still said: "I am devoted to the Tao now, let's wait until I am twenty years old. As for you, elder brother, you are twenty this year, what's the matter? Plan?" As he spoke, Chen Fan suddenly realized that in modern times, a twenty-year-old is actually just a child. At the age of twenty, he has to take on social and family responsibilities, so he needs to work harder.
"Let's just let it happen as it happens. I wonder if Fasheng has any plans to invite some people to celebrate the housewarming, such as calling Yajun and the others."
Since the last separation at the inn, Chen Fan has been very busy and has not contacted Yajun and the others. The main reason is that there are no mobile phones in this era and it is really inconvenient to contact them. Immediately he said: "We have settled down in Gusu. We want to invite people to have some fun. Why don't we make an appointment with Yajun and the others tomorrow? I just don't know if they have time?" Chen Fan was a little worried about Yajun and the others, and was busy after returning. For socializing, there is no freedom of entry and exit.
"Okay, I'll make an appointment tomorrow to see if they are available." The eldest brother immediately recommended himself.
"Okay, I'll leave it to my eldest brother." It would be nice to have someone to run the errands, and my eldest brother is indeed the most suitable person to go to Nanfeng Pavilion to make an appointment.
"You're welcome. Come and have a drink." The eldest brother raised his glass again and said.
Fortunately, the alcohol content was not high, the food tasted good, and everyone had a good time. After having enough wine and food, they took a rest.
After dinner, the night was dark and the breeze was blowing. Chen Fan sat in the pavilion in the backyard and took a nap, enjoying the tranquility of the courtyard. At some point, Xiao Qing walked up to Chen Fan and stood silently without speaking.
"How long have you been standing there and why didn't you say anything?" After noticing Xiao Qing beside him, Chen Fan raised his head and looked at Xiao Qing and said.
"It's good to just stay quietly like this." Xiao Qing said as he sat down.
"Why are you so rich?" Chen Fan was actually very curious about this question, but he never found the right time to ask, and he didn't know whether the original owner knew about it, so he couldn't bear to ask. Now he finally took advantage of the night to ask. .
"My father gave it to me. It's considered a breakup fee, so I can fend for myself in the future."
"What does breakup fee mean?" I have heard of breakup fees when men and women break up, but I have never heard of breakup fees between father and son.
"This is a bit complicated. To put it simply, he didn't want to recognize me as his son, and he was afraid that I would starve to death outside, so he gave me a sum of money so that I wouldn't bother him anymore."
"Then do you miss him?"
"I don't think so. I think of it occasionally. It just flashes through my mind. Being with you is the happiest day for me, especially these two days of practicing Taoism. I feel very fulfilled."
The slight autumn wind blew gently in the small courtyard, as gentle as a mother's embrace. Chen Fan suddenly felt that love was not important, cultivation was not important, it was important to have brothers, friends, and confidants by his side, especially when this person was by his side. important.
"Why did you lend me the money?" Chen Fan looked at Xiao Qing under the hazy moonlight and continued to ask.
"I'm embarrassed to live and eat in your house for free. My uncle and aunt treat me very well, as well as your eldest brother and the others. I want to give something back."
"Oh, that's good. It seems that I should thank my father, mother, and eldest brother. I originally wanted to thank you, but luckily you borrowed it for their sake, so thank them instead of you. ." After saying that, I felt secretly happy.
"No." After Xiao Qing said these three words, he suddenly got stuck. If he continued to talk, would he be asking for help?
"Nothing?" Seeing Xiao Qing a little embarrassed, Chen Fan felt a little funny.
"I just said thank you to my uncle and aunt, including you. After arriving in Hudu, I really felt like home. Especially you, your joy, anger, sorrow and joy are all on your face, and I am with you It was very relaxing and made me feel carefree.”
"Is this praising me, or is it hurting me? The complimentary meaning is that I am naive, and the derogatory meaning is that I am short-sighted! Forget it, because he is the sponsor, I won't argue with him. But today it seems that he is quite Poor, his father doesn't care about him very much, and the only aunt who loves him is gone, so he came to my house because he had no place to go." After being in this world for so many days, Chen Fan inquired a little about things at home, and about Xiao Qing's life. The origin is a little curious, but the quick-talking Ah Chun only knows that Xiao Qing came to Hudu to relax because of his mother's death. After hearing Xiao Qing's words today, he suddenly felt pity for him in his heart.
"Well, then you can stay with us as long as you want." Chen Fan couldn't help but patted Xiao Qing and said.
"This is what you said, don't go back on it." Xiao Qing's eyes lit up, he moved closer to Chen Fan and stared at Chen Fan to confirm.
It seems that this benefactor provided the money for this house, so he should be the one to leave, Chen Fan thought to himself, and immediately said: "Of course, don't worry, I will never regret it."
"Then what are your plans for the future?"
"Of course, you need to learn the Northern Xuanwu Scripture first."
"Besides studying?"
"Make money."
"What about making money?"
"No more." Chen Fan shook his head and just said, "How did you get so many exceptions?"
"For the sake of allowing me to live here, I will grant you a wish. Tell me what you need or want to achieve."
"What, you said you could help make it happen?" Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Qing with some scrutiny.
"As long as I can do it, I will help you achieve it." Xiao Qing nodded seriously.
"Then I need a servant, an obedient one." Chen Fan looked at Xiao Qing and said with a smile.
"I'm going back to my room to sleep first." Xiao Qing stood up decisively and left immediately.
"Hey, you said you wanted to help me realize it. Think about it." Looking at Xiao Qing who was a little embarrassed, Chen Fan shouted a little proudly.
Xiao Qing left without looking back.
The evening breeze blew, bringing with it the faint scent of grass and trees in the courtyard, and the spiritual power of wood. Chen Fan suddenly remembered his guess when he was looking at the house, and immediately sat cross-legged and began to practice. There seemed to be cheerful elves dancing around, light and clear, floating in the wind. However, as Chen Fan continued to collect Qi and entered Chen Fan's body, Chen Fan subconsciously wanted to see what was going on inside his body. Inadvertently, according to Wu Tou's instructions, Visualize yourself using the visualization method recorded in the second volume of Transparency.
Chengying's explanation of the "Northern Xuanwu Sutra" is that Qi training and visualization can be done at the same time, or you can visualize first and then practice Qi, and it does not necessarily need to be done step by step. But what Chen Fan didn't know was that the explanation given by Cheng Ying was actually for him personally, but not for others. Due to the Heavenly Book page, the acupoints in Chen Fan's mind have been opened, and the Xuanhuang Qi in the Lingyuan Pearl is used. Combined with the energy of the Heavenly Book page, the effect is far better than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, he needs to use his own true energy to rush through. It is impossible to open the acupoints in the mind without strong true energy, and naturally it is impossible to start practicing visualization.
As he contemplated himself, the world seemed to become silent. The scene of true energy entering Chen Fan's body and flowing along his meridians to his lower Dantian appeared before Chen Fan's eyes like a movie. Chen Fan maintained a calm attitude and just watched quietly. After an unknown amount of time, the gas filled his lower dantian, which was filled with colorful colors. As the feeling of fullness in the lower Dantian came, Chen Fan's head cleared. He exited the state of visualization, and the surrounding sensation suddenly returned. He immediately meditated on the process of Qi training, and followed the Qi training instructions contained in the scriptures. The method is to rush the lower Dantian gas toward the middle Dantian. You will feel a shock in your body, as if a door has opened in your body, and the gas from the lower Dantian has entered the middle Dantian. Chen Fan knew that this was the critical moment for Qi training, so he did not dare to neglect it. According to the scriptures, he rotated and refined the Qi in the Zhongdantian, and the gas gradually turned into liquid and became the real essence. Chen Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and guided the true energy to rush down to the lower dantian along the Ren channel. Although the true energy was very small, it did not encounter any obstacles. It entered the lower dantian and settled there. This is the first level of Qi training. Refining the true essence is over.
After cultivating true energy, you can be regarded as a true Taoist. The following process of practicing qi is usually a hard work. It takes a lot of time to open up the meridians of the whole body. Some people are born with blocked meridians, and it takes a lot of effort to open them up. With such power, they may not even be able to get through it at all; but some people are born with smooth meridians, and if they practice it, they can get twice the result with half the effort.
For Chen Fan, it is much easier than others. Although it is difficult for people to own the Heavenly Book Page, there are many benefits to owning it. Among them, "Dingguang" requires people to sacrifice their souls, which will bring about the perfection of the body and all the meridians. "Chengying" requires people to sacrifice their bodies, which will bring about the perfection of the soul and the soul that can grow infinitely. It's just that Chen Fan doesn't know about it at the moment, because he hasn't gotten the key page of the heavenly book yet - "Destiny".
When people start practicing, they don't know how fast time passes. At this time, there was a faint hint of red clouds on the horizon, and Chen Fan immediately walked to the wing.
Opening the back door of the main hall facing the small courtyard, Chen Fan walked in gently, and a figure came into view, sitting cross-legged at the entrance of the main hall.
"Aqing!" Chen Fan was slightly surprised and called softly.
"Well, you're awake." A Qing turned his head and said to Chen Fan.
"Why don't you go to bed?" Chen Fan asked curiously.
"I see you have entered trance, so stay here and practice guarding one by the way." A Qing replied.
"Shou Yi needs to enter a trance state. It's easy to be disturbed by the outside world here. You should rest quickly." Chen Fan's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke. This guy is not afraid that he will be disturbed. He is guarding here so that no one can disturb him. Coming in is the main purpose. Suddenly, a warm current emerged from the bottom of my heart.
