It was too difficult to teach children pinyin, and Shen Shian decided to give up. It is more practical to study the exercise books.
I made some simple modifications to the study room in the bamboo building. Two gray-blue fabric sofas were placed against the wall. There was a thick layer of carpet on the floor. The solid wood round low table can seat more than four people around it. I threw in a few throw pillows and it was very comfortable to sit or lie down on.
Shen Shi'an put all the children's comic strips, story books, and building block toys on the round table, and told him: "Play by yourself, don't make trouble." He also put a coaster under the glass bowl: "It's okay to eat, but don't make trouble. It’s everywhere.”
The glass bowl contains a snack he made for his children, orange juice aloe vera. The raw material is the Aloe vera plant that mutated and grew wildly after being watered with spiritual spring water. Use an ax to chop off the sharp thorns as long as the forearm, and peel the leaves. Select the fattest part in the middle and cut it into long strips. First boil it in boiling water to remove the bitterness, then marinate it with freshly squeezed orange juice and honey for two hours. Finally, pour it into a glass bowl covered with ice cubes. It will be tender, juicy, refreshing and refreshing. Suitable for digestion and fatigue after the Chinese New Year.
The only inconvenience is that the temperature at home and in the space is not too low. There is ice in the glass bowl. If you leave it for a while, a lot of water droplets will liquefy on the outer wall. If you don't use a coaster to cushion it, it will stay wherever you put it. A circle of water stains. For Shen Shian, this is something unforgivable.
After getting the assurance from the child that "if the bowl is on the mat, you will only eat green vegetables", Shen Shi'an took out the exercise book from the bookshelf, calmed down, and tried to decipher it again.
Shen Xun used a fork to fork a few aloe vera strips. While chewing, he grabbed a bone-shaped pillow and smelled it. He stacked the blocks randomly and pushed them down. After barely being calm for ten minutes, he turned around and started to move closer to Shen Shi'an. When his eyes fell on the exercise book, his eyes suddenly lit up:
Oh, there are quite a lot of treasures in this portable field.
Shen Shi'an was sitting on the sofa, one leg slightly bent and the other straightened, and he stretched out his slender and straight lines under his loose casual pants. There are more than a dozen pieces of manuscript paper scattered around the legs. Each piece of manuscript paper is densely packed, and the words in the exercise book are arranged and reorganized according to various deciphering methods.
Shen Shi'an's hard-pen calligraphy is very beautiful. It's the kind that will attract you at first sight and you can't help but admire it. It's elegant and neat. His pen is strong and thin, and he has a unique style. He even won an award in a hard-pen calligraphy competition in high school. His Chinese teacher once praised him. His words are like the person he is, "cold and arrogant with a compelling romance".
It's a pity that not long after these beautiful words were written, they were quickly crossed out by two black lines, and a small cross was drawn after the deciphering method used in this text.
The more words were erased and the thicker the manuscript paper fell around him, the more irritated and impatient the eyes half-hidden under the black hair became. When another piece of manuscript paper was discarded and thrown down, Shen Shi'an made a "pop" sound. He closed the exercise book, rolled up his forehead hair with his backhand, and his smooth forehead was as smooth as white jade. He leaned back on the sofa and sighed heavily.
Or not.
No matter how you try, the sentences in this book don't make any sense.
He stood up and paced back and forth in the study a little irritably. His eyes suddenly turned to the landscape painting on the wall, and finally landed on the word "Guixu" in the upper left corner of the painting.
In the whole study room, only the signature of this painting and the exercise book could be connected. However, he had seen this painting countless times. Apart from confirming that the scenery in the painting was beautiful and that the painter was superb, he did not find anything special. place.
Is the method of deciphering hidden under the paint? Or on drawing paper? So is he going to send the painting for professional testing? But if the test results are beyond common sense, for example, the painting is thousands of years old, or the paint used in the painting does not belong to any known substance, then how should he explain it?
ah. Shen Shi'an rubbed his temples vigorously, which was really irritating.
Shen Xun stared at him secretly for a long time, and finally understood what he wanted to do. I puffed my cheeks and thought: Tsk, stupid An An. Bajibaji chewed the aloe vera strips in his mouth and swallowed them, then raised his lotus-jointed arms and waved at him twice: "...come..."
When he came back and sat down on the sofa, he suddenly grabbed one of his fingers, put it into his mouth and took a bite at lightning speed, then squeezed out a few drops of blood and smeared it on the spine of the exercise book. .
Shen Shi'an felt a pain in his fingertips, and before he could question, the exercise book on his leg suddenly glowed with light, slowly floating into the air like the rising sun, and instantly turned into countless light spots surrounding Shen Shi'an, slowly It swam for a moment and then merged into the body and disappeared without a trace.
It was as if I had been thrown into the chaos before the creation of the world, and I felt as if I was dreaming or waking up. Countless lights and shadows were passing by quickly, but I couldn't see clearly and couldn't catch them. I could only drift with the tide in the endless darkness, not knowing where I was going. where……
When Shen Shi'an regained control of his body and opened his eyes, he found that he was lying flat on the sofa with a white and tender dumpling lying next to him.
"How long have I been asleep?" He sat up with his eyebrows pinched.
Shen Xun stretched out a hand: "...ten minutes..."
After looking around, he found that the exercise book was gone - or that it existed in another form. As long as he thought about it, the entire exercise book would automatically appear in his mind. Although the sentence is profound and mysterious, it is finally not the illogical gibberish before.
He looked into Shen Xun's eyes: "How do you know blood is effective?"
The dark green eyes blinked twice, ignorant, cute and innocent: "...recognize the master by shedding blood, this is how it is done on TV..."
Shen Shi'an was silent, "...Watch less TV in the future."
This matter was actually caused by his own misunderstanding. Because the text in the book was normal but the order was obviously wrong, he only thought about decoding it. And because the exercise book was made of paper, he never thought of comparing it with blood. Liquids are linked together. Since the prayer beads are fused with his blood to create changes and open up space, this method should have been tried in the exercise book long ago.
It was in vain that he had been thinking about it for so long, and in the end he was beaten by a bitch who loved watching fairy tale dramas. Shen Shi'an couldn't help but laugh, rubbed the child's head twice, and stood up from the sofa.
After integrating the exercise book, the entire space completely changed in his eyes: the air was filled with strands of light cyan substance, which was between liquid and solid, floating around irregularly. , and penetrate into the human body with breathing.
And when he silently recited the mantras recorded in the exercise book, the speed of this substance penetrating into the human body would suddenly accelerate. It would circulate along the veins for a week and then accumulate in the lower abdomen. It was like a pool of warm spiritual spring water, nourishing every limb and body. An inch of skin.
The wound on his fingertip bitten by Shen Xun had long since healed as before. He could even clearly feel that all the cells in his body were jumping for joy because of this substance, like spring grass after the rain, glowing with vigorous vitality. .
Shen Shi'an tried to clench his fist, and a surging sense of power immediately surged out - if the spiritual spring water improved his physique, then under the influence of the technique, this substance called spiritual power had an impact on him. Undertaken a complete transformation from the inside out.
According to the records in the book, if you can practice this set of "Return to Ruins Technique" to the twelfth level of Dzogchen, you can call the wind, summon rain, crush the void, and become a powerful person similar to gods. Now Shen Shian has just come into contact with the technique. Although he has not even touched the first level barrier, he is already very satisfied with the current effect.
He randomly punched a few times into the air, and the clear sound of breaking through the air showed the terrifying power contained in his fists. At this time, Shen Shi'an looked like a newly adult cheetah, young and vigorous, with high morale and full of energy. I don't know how to vent.
After walking back and forth in the study several times to feel the changes in his body, Shen Shi'an paused, suddenly remembered something, turned around and walked out.
"...An'an..." Shen Xun quickly stood up and chased after him with the glass bowl in his arms.
Walking to the inner stairwell of the main room, Shen Shi settled for a moment and continued to go up. He didn't stop until he reached the corner, raised his hand and waved in the air twice -
No more, the invisible barrier that originally blocked this place has indeed disappeared.
Shen Shi'an was overjoyed and immediately walked up quickly. When his sight reached the top of the stairs, the entire second floor was in full view:
The second floor is different from the first floor. There are no rooms separated from each other. The entire floor is open. The floor is about five to six meters high and supported by six thick solid wood pillars. Looking around, there is nothing.
"...An'an..."
Shen Shi'an turned around and found that Shen Xun was climbing up the stairs with his short legs. After climbing for a long time, he didn't even reach a quarter of the way. He was sitting on the stairs, making coquettish sounds and saying, "...hug..."
The corners of her lips curled up, she took a few steps back, picked him up and put him on the floor, and then walked around the pillar. The first floor is divided into several rooms by walls, which is not obvious. When the entire floor is opened, I realize that the area of the bamboo building is very considerable. In addition, the second floor is higher than ordinary houses, so it looks extremely spacious and empty. .
Walking to the corresponding position in the study downstairs, Shen Shi'an stopped and his eyes fell directly on the entire wall of weapons directly in front of him.
All the cold weapons hanging on the walls include many kinds of swords, guns, swords and halberds. In the middle is a long sword that is as tall as half a man. It is completely black and has a simple shape. The scabbard is engraved with some simple but strangely beautiful animal-shaped patterns.
Shen Shi'an took a few steps forward, held the blade of the sword with both hands, and carefully removed the long sword from its stand. He held the sheath in his right hand and the handle in his left hand. With a slight exertion, a snow-green sword light suddenly lit up in his field of vision, and the sword body trembled slightly like a dragon's roar——
The long sword had a brilliant cold light, and the sword was like autumn water and the blade was as sharp as frost. Even though Shen Shi'an knew little about cold weapons, he had no doubt that what he was holding was a magic weapon that could blow hair off and cut iron like mud.
Holding the sword in one hand and stabbing into the air a few times, Shen Shi'an quickly understood the reason for the existence of the barrier on the stairs: I don't know what the specific material of the sword in his hand was, but it was very dense. Regardless of the scabbard, it weighs at least 50 kilograms. If it weren't for him integrating the exercise book and his body being transformed by spiritual power, he would never be able to hold it so easily. If he accidentally bumped into it, he would probably lose his hand. Or break your foot.
The second floor looked empty, but there was indeed a treasure hidden there. Shen Shi'an was heartbroken. He walked to the window and stretched out his right index finger to touch the blade of the sword very carefully. A gash appeared on the fingertip, and bright red blood beads came out and dripped on the sword -
There was no reaction and it just rolled down the sword.
Well, he was overthinking it.
Shen Shi'an sheathed his sword with some embarrassment. As soon as he turned around, he saw Shen Xun standing on tiptoes, reaching for a Tang sword at the bottom of the weapons wall.
The entire body of the Tang sword was dark red, and the blade was twice as wide as a long sword. The lines on the scabbard were bold and wild, and when it was erected, it was taller than a child——
If it falls and hits you, you will be seriously injured or killed.
Shen Shi'an's pupils tightened and he shouted sharply: "Don't touch!"
But before he could rush over to save people, Shen Xun had already taken off the knife, held the handle of the knife with both hands and pulled it out, swung it left and right twice and danced vigorously.
Shen Shi'an suddenly stopped and paused, then walked over and took the knife from his hand and weighed it twice: it was very heavy, and the expected heavy hand was heavier than the long sword in the other hand. All heavy.
Looking at the child, his expression suddenly became strange: "...when did you become so strong?"
Shen Xun still acted cute and pretended to be stupid: "...I've always been like this..."
Shen Shi'an narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a while without speaking. Then he turned around and put the long sword and Tang Dao back to their original places: "Let's go downstairs."
The weapon is a magic weapon, but he has no use for it at the moment, so it would be better to keep it here.
As soon as he lowered his head, he found that the glass bowl containing orange juice and aloe vera had been placed on the floor, and the coaster that was supposed to be placed underneath was completely missing. His tone immediately became dangerous: "What did I tell you, huh? Don't put the ice in it." The bowls are placed randomly, and water droplets seep everywhere on you..."
The sound stopped abruptly when his fingers touched the wall of the bowl.
Wait, something's wrong.
Shen Shi'an picked up the bowl and inspected it carefully to make sure that he was not dazzled or hallucinating——
There are no water droplets. Whether it is the outer edge of the glass bowl or the floor where the glass bowl is placed, everything is dry and clean without any water stains.
But this is impossible. There are still a lot of unmelted ice cubes under the aloe vera strips in the bowl. Shen Shi'an's hands are already cold before he holds the bowl. The temperature in the space is about 20 degrees. It is the most basic thing for hot air to liquefy into water droplets when it encounters cold. He and Shen Xun had been on the second floor for nearly twenty minutes. It was absolutely impossible that there was no liquefied water vapor outside the bowl wall. It was obviously normal in the study before...
An idea flashed in Shen Shi'an's mind, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.
He pinched a piece of ice from the bowl, squatted down and placed it on the floor, observing carefully:
Ten minutes have passed, and the ice cube is still the same size, showing no signs of melting.
Damn it.
Shen Shi'an clenched his fists tightly before he could control the exclamation that almost blurted out——
As far as items are concerned, time on the second floor of the main building stands completely still! That’s why the glass bowl will always remain in the same state as before it was picked up!
No, not just items. Shen Shi'an lowered his head and looked at his right index finger. A slight scratch on the fingertip was clearly visible——
This is a wound he made on the sword blade. According to his current physique and the nourishment of spiritual power in his body, such a small wound should have healed long ago, but there is no sign of healing at this time. It was scratched a moment ago. What it looked like, and what it still looks like now.
He thought that the weapon wall was a treasure hidden on the second floor, but in fact, the entire second floor of the bamboo building was the biggest treasure!
The meaning of having a space where internal time stands still is self-evident. To put it simply, at least there is no need to worry about issues like "how to preserve food grown in black soil" in the future.
Shen Shi'an suppressed his excitement. In order to once again prove that his guess was correct, he stepped out of the space with a thought, poured a glass of hot water and then stepped back in——
Half an hour later, the hot water was still scalding hot.
The wound on the fingertip of his right hand had healed as well as before in the short time he left the second floor of the bamboo building.
During the process of entering and exiting the space, apart from pouring a cup of hot water, Shen Shi'an also discovered two other surprises brought about by the fusion of the exercise books -
Before the fusion of the exercise book, the space was completely isolated from the outside world, which meant that when he entered the space, he had no idea what was happening in the outside world, and vice versa.
After integrating the exercise book, no matter whether he is in the space or outside the space, he can clearly perceive the changes on the other side.
For example, Shen Shi'an enters the space from the living room. When he is in the space, as long as his mind moves, the scene in the living room at this moment can appear in his consciousness; and when he leaves the space, the scene in the entire space will appear. Everything is under control.
At the same time, whether he is in the space or outside the space, he can rely on his consciousness to move objects in the space. However, this ability seems to be limited by the level of the skill. In Shen Shian's current state, he can feel obvious dizziness just by moving the cactus from the front of the bamboo building to the back of the bamboo building, and then moving it back to its original position. dizzy.
And this ability seemed useless to animals. He tried several times, but Shen Xun was still sitting on the second floor of the bamboo building, chewing aloe vera.
No matter what, this fusion of exercise books has been really fruitful.
Shen Shi'an was in a very good mood, and walked out of the bamboo building with Shen Xun in his arms. The peach tree outside the corridor, which was as thick as two people's arms, was full of peach blossoms. It was like brocade, mist, and clouds. , the whole space becomes more and more like a fairyland.
A few flakes quietly fell on the young man's head and face. When he looked up, his thick and long eyelashes were like two small fans, his jawline was clear and smooth, his black hair, red lips and skin color were like jade, which was actually more beautiful than the long and long eyelashes. The peach blossoms are more of a scorching beauty.
Shen Xun accidentally stared blankly. He was stunned for a long time with his mouth wide open, and almost drooled on Shen Shi'an's shoulder.
Shen Shi'an frowned in disgust, quickly stretched out his arms and put the child down, and walked around the space to see if there were any other changes.
When I walked to the creek, my heart moved. I remembered one of the most important things, turned around and walked quickly towards Lingquan Pool.
In the steaming mist, if you listen calmly and carefully, you can catch the slightest sound of running water.
Shen Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the re-moistened spring. Although the water flow was now only a very thin stream compared to before, and seemed to disappear at any time, it was a good thing as long as there was improvement.
Since the spring and the technique interact with each other, as long as he practices hard, he can one day restore it to its original state.
A huge stone fell in my heart, and I felt much more relaxed. Turning around, he saw Shen Xun lying tightly on the golden protective shield like a gecko, with longing written on his squished face. He pitifully shouted to him: "...An'an...An'an..."
Shen Shi'an sat on the ground beside the spiritual spring and smiled at him very gently: "You, dad, don't even think about coming in."
