"Mom, I'm back."
"Where have you been, kid? I haven't seen you all afternoon. I'm about to go find you." Xiao's mother looked at the shirtless Xiao Ran and said helplessly.
"I'm going to catch crabs in the river. Let's eat crabs tonight." Xiao Ran found a bucket and poured the crabs wrapped in clothes into the bucket.
Xiao Ran rinsed the crabs first, then cut them in half, fried them in a pan, fished them out and set aside. Then add leeks and stir-fry, secretly adding some space spirit liquid during the process, I didn't dare to add more. The simple smell of fried river crabs has whetted your appetite. I also made a loofah soup and a green vegetable. It was a simple meal. Mother Xiao was on the side giving instructions from time to time to help light the fire, and it was quickly finished. .
"Mom, I'm going to call grandpa.
Grandpa, it’s time to eat. "
Xiao Ran's grandfather, Xiao Yongye, was still lying on the lounge chair and blowing the evening breeze as usual. What was different from before was that he didn't see much smile on his face during this time. Hearing his grandson's call, he simply replied, "Here we go."
Xiao Ran let his grandfather and mother eat first, while he packed some food and went to his father's room. His father's illness was getting worse and worse, and now he couldn't get up. If it were before, he would basically be in a state of waiting to die.
"Dad, it's time to eat."
As usual, Father Xiao couldn't finish it after a few bites. Drink some water first and eat some later, Xiao Ran advised.
"Xiaoran, go and eat, leave me alone." Tears flowed down unconsciously as he watched his son taking care of himself with all his heart. This iron-clad man had never shed tears before, no matter how hard or tired he was.
Looking at his father in front of him, Xiao Ran really wanted to tell his father about his adventure, but Xiao Ran knew that he couldn't, at least not for now. The common man was not guilty, but he was guilty of having a treasure in his possession. Before you have no ability to protect yourself.
Xiao Ran could only persuade his father, "What are you talking about? Dad, it is only natural for my son to take care of me. Stop thinking nonsense. Western medicine is not good. Let's try Chinese medicine." I have read some information on the Internet, let's try it later. Drink some water and hand the water to dad.
Father Xiao knew that his son was trying to comfort him, but he didn't take it to heart. If there was really a cure for cancer, how could it be called a terminal illness? He took the cup and drank it in one gulp. The taste is a little sweet and cool, and once it enters the stomach, the whole body feels warm and very comfortable.
"Xiao Ran, this water..." It was obviously different from the water he usually drank.
"Oh, you are talking about this, Dad. This is the mountain spring water I went to the mountain to get in the afternoon. I drank some while working in the afternoon and it tasted good, so I brought some back to you." Xiao Ran made up the excuse he had already made. Take it out.
Not to mention, I felt quite comfortable after drinking it, and Father Xiao didn’t think too much about it.
"Eat something more, Dad; you can try the crabs I caught in the river this afternoon. They are very fragrant."
The aroma of crabs hit your nostrils, maybe it was the nourishment of the spiritual liquid, or maybe it was the deliciousness of the crabs. Father Xiao actually finished the bowl of food. Looking at my father, he is obviously better than before, and I feel confident.
"Then I'm going out to eat first. Dad, please take a rest first."
After dinner, it was almost eight o'clock after helping her mother clear the dishes. Xiao Ran was lying on the lounge chair as usual. The moon had risen. The starry sky in the countryside was different from that in the city. When the weather was good, the moon and stars could be seen very clearly, and the sky was very clear. clean.
Looking at the sky, Xiao Ran thought about his future plans. The first goal must be to cure his father's illness. Even if there is no way for the time being, at least he needs to stabilize it first. The other one is cultivation. Before he has the ability to protect himself, Xiao Ran doesn't want to do anything different from ordinary people. Of course, the layout is still necessary.
Through the information in his mind, Xiao Ran already understood the benefits of spiritual liquid and space. Especially in terms of plants, it can not only promote the growth of plants, but also improve them. What's more, it can even grow spiritual objects. Of course, this is still too far away for Xiao Ran at present, and spiritual objects are not that easy to cultivate, let alone Nowadays, spiritual energy is lacking. Then there are also huge benefits to animals.
After clarifying his future development direction, Xiao Ran was no longer confused in his heart.
It seems that he will have to stay at home from now on, Xiao Ran smiled and said in a low voice. The current spiritual liquid is not enough to support Xiao Ran's great efforts. The current primary goal is naturally to practice, which can not only enhance his strength, but also provide room for development. The spiritual energy that Xiao Ran absorbed from heaven and earth was partly absorbed by his own body, and the other part was absorbed by the space, condensed into spiritual liquid, and emerged from the spring. This is also the reason why the spiritual spring is resurrected. The spiritual spring emits spiritual energy, so the spiritual energy in the space The concentration will become higher and higher, and the effect on the growth of the organisms inside will be greater and greater. When the concentration reaches a certain level of saturation, space will be opened up, which means that the space can still grow. The time in space is also different from that outside. According to the records in the inheritance, it should be one to three now, which means that one day outside is equivalent to three days passing in space. It will change later as the space grows.
The current amount of spiritual liquid is only a small amount of water, except for daily drinking by my family, there is basically not much left. Therefore, you must practice hard now, otherwise no matter how ambitious you are, it will be in vain if you don't have the support of strength and spiritual liquid.
Cultivation does not require sitting cross-legged like a Taoist priest, you just need to enter that peculiar breathing state. After trying many times, the spiritual energy began to slowly gather towards Xiao Ran. At the same time, a trace of the moon's brilliance was absorbed by Xiao Ran, which began to polish Xiao Ran's spirit. The moon belongs to yin. Xiao Ran's feeling at this time was cold, that kind of soul. It felt so cold, as if I was in freezing ice, completely surrounded by ice. There was no reaction from his body. Even if someone touched Xiao Ran's body now, he would not feel the cold. Only Xiao Ran could feel this kind of cold. This was the practice of refining the spirit. Use the essence of the sun and moon to refine your spiritual power.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth refines the body, and the essence of the sun and moon refines the spirit. The body is the foundation of a person, and the spirit is the human soul. Both are indispensable. Even if the soul is strong enough to take over others, it is not your body after all, and it cannot fully fit with the soul. These are all highlighted in Xinfa Yin.
It is very comfortable when the spiritual energy enters the body, but it is very painful when the moonlight melts the spirit. Xiao Ran spent an hour in such a sour mood, and reluctantly quit the state of breathing. This breathing state is very draining of energy. Xiao Ran's current mental strength can only last for an hour at most. Too much is not enough, and if it lasts longer, it will damage the foundation.
Take a shower and go to sleep. Xiao Ran feels very tired now. I said hello to my parents, took a shower, and fell into a deep sleep as soon as I got on the bed.
