mountain ghost

Chapter 6 Insightful Insights
"Qi is also, the spirit shines alone, and exists forever with the sky. It does not prosper when it is small, and declines when it is old; it does not survive by life, but perishes when it dies, so it is called the spirit of heaven and earth..."

Inside the statue, Lu Chen watched intently, observing and comprehending the ancient inscriptions on the jade talisman.

These characters are extremely ancient, and many of them are in seal script. To be honest, Lu Chen doesn't know them at all, but it's also very strange. As long as he concentrates and meditates silently, he seems to be able to understand the meaning of them.

In a short while, I have been able to read this article.

But many of the sentences were obscure and profound, and Lu Chen couldn't understand them for a while.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that this article is indeed a practice guide technique, from which one can comprehend the method of refining Qi and swallowing spirits, and embark on the road of practice.

'This method of refining qi is manifested by jade talismans, so it is definitely not ordinary. I have to study it carefully. '

Thinking room.

Lu Chen calmed down and tried to comprehend and ponder word by word.

Before you know it, several hours have passed.

When he came back to his senses again, the mountain rain had stopped, the morning light was bright, and a ray of sunlight was projected from the top of the cliff, cut through the shade of trees, and sprinkled finely on his body.

Its daybreak.

Li Kaiyang was also busy almost half the night.

Needless to say, this kid is indeed not bragging, and his carpentry skills are not inferior to his talent at all. After this night of processing, most of the damaged doors and windows of the temple have been repaired.

Although it still looks tattered, at least it won't be exposed from all directions.

Finally, it has the face of a temple.

"almost."

Li Kaiyang took out the few dry rations and noodle cakes left, and took two bites, which was regarded as breakfast.

He unscrewed the kettle and wanted to drink some water, but found that it was already empty, so he had no choice but to go out. He glanced at the water tank at the door. It was full of rainwater, but it was clear, but the tank had lowered a lot of fallen leaves and dust, and it was still there after all. However, due to cleanliness, the water is undrinkable anyway.

Fortunately, there is a mountain spring flowing down the cliff not far away. Although the amount is not much, it is sweet.

Li Kaiyang took a few sips and then filled the water bottle.

When I came back, I thought about it, poured out the stagnant water in the water tank, washed it again, and returned with a tank of mountain spring water by accident.

After doing this, I couldn't help laughing at myself again: "This temple is uninhabited, and the gods don't need to drink water. I have done a futile effort..."

He shook his head, maybe it was just because he was grateful for the kindness of the gods last night, and he felt that he could not repay, and he didn't want to be in debt, so he did these trivial things within his ability.

Even, what he did may not have any meaning to the gods.

But the most important thing is sincerity, for peace of mind.

"It's getting late, and it's time for me to set off. Thanks to the blessing of the gods, the life-saving grace, the students will remember it in their hearts. If they can pass the high school in this scientific examination, in the future, no matter how far away they are, they will come to fulfill their wishes."

This Li Kaiyang is not completely desireless, he did not forget to make a wish before leaving.

Unfortunately.

Lu Chen is not a Wenqu star in the sky, so his wish may not be able to help him.

However, with Li Kaiyang's talent and learning, it shouldn't be difficult to win a Juren.

As for fulfilling his wish, Lu Chen didn't take it to heart either. He's not a real god, and he won't be trapped in this ruined temple forever.

Besides, in fact, Li Kaiyang had already given him feedback, but he didn't know it himself.

'This man has great ambitions. It is impossible to keep him here to study for me, and I dare not.This kid belongs to Tang Seng, if another big demon is attracted, I will also be implicated, and it is a good thing to leave as soon as possible.But I haven't finished reading the Chronicle of Mountains and Rivers, so I feel a little embarrassed to speak rashly...'

Thinking of this, Lu Chen urged the jade talisman, inhaled slightly, and then exhaled lightly.

Suddenly there was a breeze in the temple.

Li Kaiyang was packing his bags when he suddenly saw the book basket shaking, a yellowish book fell down, but the other things were neat and tidy.

Immediately, he turned his head and looked at the portrait, thinking of the strange wind that blew up last night, and had a vague guess in his heart.

"Does your old man like this book? This book was obtained by chance by a student, and it is not of much benefit in the imperial examination. If the gods love it, you can keep it here and make it an offering."

After speaking, he stood up and stroked the cover of the book with some reluctance, but finally made up his mind and placed it on the tribute stand in front of the statue.

'Yes, the lad has a future. '

Lu Chen nodded secretly.

After finishing all this, Li Kaiyang also packed his things, didn't stay any longer, kowtowed goodbye to the god statue, turned around and went out, facing the newborn sun, his figure gradually disappeared into the forest.

"This scholar is actually quite a nice person, and I don't know if there will be a day to meet him. I only hope that you will go here and have a bright future."

While speaking, he has withdrawn his gaze.

Next, I should also meditate and comprehend the jade talisman scriptures, and strive to achieve success in cultivation as soon as possible and become a flesh and blood body.

At that time, there is no need to be trapped in this corner, and you can go out to see the scenery outside.

"The breath returns to the root, the thoughts return to the original, life has no basis, good luck surrounds the body..."

"Looking inside and listening back, this qi is self-replenishing, the spirit is self-reinforcing, and the elixir is in the belly..."

……

Lu Chen tirelessly recited the jade talisman over and over again.

At the same time, the mind comprehends and tries to figure out the true meaning.

There is a saying that read the book a hundred times, and its meaning will be self-evident.

I don't know how long I have been reading it.

All of a sudden, Lu Chen seemed to have a sense of it, and saw strands of threads as thin as gossamer, like light smoke, like catkins, fluttering in the wind, flowing in the mountain spring, attached to the grass leaves, hidden in the mud, churning in the clouds between……

That is the spirit of heaven and earth.

Also known as Reiki.

It is the pure energy that lasts forever in the world. All things have spirits, and they are all born and grown by this. The number varies, and those with little spiritual power are ants and mayflies. Their lives are thin, and they live and die at night; Those who are born with spiritual wisdom, wisdom and enlightenment, can live for thousands of years, and can also use the power of heaven and earth to transform into supernatural powers...

The so-called practice is a process of borrowing the spirit of heaven and earth to temper oneself and break through the limit.

The first step is to realize the existence of heaven and earth aura.

Monks meditate in meditation, Taoists meditate in meditation, and Confucians read sages' poems and books to cultivate themselves, all of which are actually means to feel spiritual energy.

Those who can see the extraordinary will have the opportunity to step into the road of cultivation, and if the opportunity for talent has not arrived, even if they kneel down and ask for it, they will not be able to enter.

This can be regarded as the first threshold on the road of practice.

Lu Chen didn't expect that he would be able to see the extraordinary and realize the existence of the aura of heaven and earth just by reading and comprehending the scriptures of the jade talisman.

"Maybe I'm still a one-in-a-million cultivation genius?"

He laughed at himself.

After realizing the existence of spiritual energy, the next practice will be a matter of course.

Just follow the description of the exercises, absorb the aura step by step, gradually refine it, integrate it into your own flesh and blood, and strengthen yourself.

This process is called Yunling.

Whether it is a human or a demon, the first step of cultivation is the same.

This point, Lu Chen somewhat learned from other monsters.

"I don't have a physical body now, only a body of mud. Although I can absorb spiritual energy, I must transform flesh and blood first. If there is no accident, the process of my spiritual accumulation will probably be much longer than ordinary people. But this also has an advantage. It’s just that I don’t have the shackles of flesh and blood. In a sense, I don’t have any worries about lifespan for the time being. As long as I slowly refine my spirit, I will be able to regain my freedom sooner or later. And at that time, my physical body should be far better than ordinary people. Mortal..."

Thinking room.

Lu Chen had already closed his eyes, got rid of distracting thoughts, and began to breathe out spiritual energy according to the jade talisman scripture.
