You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 8 Peace of mind
Master Pingyang stood at the door of Fangcaotang for a while. When Master Fengyuan gave the courtyard the name, Shi Zelan was very happy and said that she likes the grass to be tenacious, upright and unyielding.

After listening to Shi Bachun's reminder, Shi Zelan opened the courtyard door and saw people standing outside the courtyard door.

"Uncle, you are here."

Pingyang Zhenren entered Fangcaotang and saw the extra thatched house on the side of the yard, and he suddenly felt happy.

"Sister Lan, do you like thatched houses?"

"I love it. Master gave it to me."

Shi Zelan said with joy, she had been working hard to meditate for several months, but she could not find a way to practice.

Some people in the lecture hall gossiped about her, and some people made a special trip to wait for the intersection to watch her talk about useless talent, which wasted Tian Linggen's good qualifications.

There were two or three wives who didn't treat her very well, but Shi Zelan wanted to study hard and turned a blind eye to irrelevant people and things.

Master gave her a thatched house at this time, showing that he would protect her.

"Sister Lan, if someone bullies you, don't be afraid, your master is here."

“Well, they don’t dare to bully me.

Uncle. I don’t have time to pay attention to people who can’t speak. "

Master Pingyang signaled Shi Zelan to meditate and watched her quickly fall into trance. He saw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth rushing toward her, but was blocked by an invisible film.

He looked carefully and saw a very thin golden light passing through the membrane. He was immediately overjoyed. This was merit.

After the spiritual energy around Shi Zelan dissipated, Shi Zelan opened his eyes and looked at Master Pingyang: "Uncle, I felt their joy and soon felt their dissipation."

Master Pingyang looked at her with joy on his face: "Sister Lan, the technique you are using now is not wrong, it's just that the path you are taking will test your xinxing and character even more."

"Uncle, have you seen that I will absorb spiritual energy into my body soon?"

"Well, I'm going to talk to your master."

Master Pingyang left Fangcaotang and soon found Master Fengyuan to tell him what he had discovered.

Master Fengyuan was silent for a moment: "The teachers in the lecture hall are also at a loss to deal with her situation. Please pay more attention to her these days.

She is a little girl, and I don’t want her to follow the path of Buddhist cultivation. "

"Master, she is young. Before she is ten years old, let her practice according to the sect's cultivation methods."

Fengyuan Zhenren said angrily: "Her temperament is not suitable for taking the path of Buddhist cultivation.

A few days ago, Master Tokuhiro's grandson said unpleasant words to her, and she scolded him to tears. "

"Master, that boy is very arrogant and willful. Our sister Lan does not cause trouble and is not afraid of it.

I heard Sister Lan say that he had said some unpleasant things in front of Sister Lan before, but Sister Lan ignored him when she saw that he didn't mention her name.

He became more and more arrogant, and stopped Sister Lan when he left the lecture hall, just to see Sister Lan cry when he told her.

As a result, Sister Lan refused to let him go this time and directly scolded him for being ignorant, scolding him for having a human face in vain, and what he said was not human at all. "

When Master Pingyang received the news, he felt happy in his heart. If Shi Zelan kept giving in and coercing, he would be the real disappointment.

Lord Fengyuan looked at the expression on Zhenren Pingyang's face and said, "Sister Lan has a great personality. You can protect her, but you can't indulge her. After all, she is too young."

Master Pingyang listened to Master Fengyuan's words, thought about it carefully, looked at Master Fengyuan and said, "Master, tell me, did she wake up the boy by scolding him so that he could absorb a little merit?"

Fengyuan Zhenjun glanced at him: "She has a pure heart and has never flinched even after setbacks. I think she has some merits."

After Shi Zelan knew that she had a chance to become an immortal, he became more and more willing to spend time meditating to achieve samadhi, but it was almost all in vain. She said to Master Heping Yang: "Uncle, can I just listen to Master Ning's lecture on the Book of Changes recently without taking any other literacy classes?"

Master Pingyang looked at her, and Shi Zelan explained: "Now that we have a new partner, Master will teach us how to read again.

Master Ning was teaching the Book of Changes again, but the more I listened, the more I felt I could understand some of the truth. "

Master Pingyang nodded: "I will discuss it with your mountain chief."

"Uncle, can I go to the pharmacy class?"

"Are you interested in pharmacy classes?"

Shi Zelan thought for a while and shook his head: "I just want to learn more skills."

Master Pingyang listened to her words and reached out to touch her little head: "Okay, let me tell you, the mountain leader, that as long as you are willing to learn, others can attend the open class, and you can naturally listen too."

Month after month, as time passes, Shi Zelan has undergone some changes, but he still cannot naturally absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

During the Chinese New Year, Shi Bachun hung red lanterns at the entrance of the Fangcaotang courtyard according to the rules of the secular world.

Shi Zelan looked up at the stars and said to Shi Bachun: "I am so unsatisfactory, do you think I will be disappointed in me?"

Shi Bachun had received news from the mortal world that Mr. Shi passed away on the morning they left.

Now that she heard Shi Zelan's words, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she quickly covered it up: "As long as you are safe and sound, your grandpa will be happy."

"Bagu, Xiaoliu and the others have all reached the first level of Qi refining soon, and I am the only one who has not yet started.

The uncle said that I will definitely be able to get started, and I think I should believe his words. "

"Sister Lan, since Master Pingyang said this, you can definitely get started. You just need to calm down."

"Bagu, if I get started, you can practice specifically, and you don't have to worry about my practice."

"Sister Lan, don't worry about my cultivation. Having me by your side will be of great benefit to my cultivation."

Shi Zelan glanced at Shi Bachun: "Bagu, if you miss Xiaoliu, go and see them. I'm embarrassed to see them now."

Shi Bachun nodded silently, she would go to see Shi Xiaoliu and the others.

Shi Zelan looked at her: "Ba Gu, is my grandpa still there?"

Shi Bachun looked down at her: "The morning we left, your grandfather left with satisfaction."

Shi Zelan looked up at the stars in the sky: "Ba Gu, I was dreaming. When I dreamed that I couldn't catch up with my grandpa, I had bad suspicions in my heart.

Now that I'm no longer by Grandpa's side, he can let go with peace of mind.

Grandpa said, he is here, I have a family in the mortal world. "

Shi Bachun understood Shi Zelan very well at this moment. When she returned to the mortal world, her parents were gone and she could only live with her brothers and sisters-in-law.

Even though her brothers and sisters-in-law took good care of her, she knew in her heart that she was just a guest.

"Sister Lan, the sect is our home. When we return to the sect, we are back home."

Shi Zelan looked at her: "Well, the sect is my home when my master and uncles are here."

Shi Bachun had been paying attention to Shi Zelan's expression. After a few days, seeing her natural expression, Shi Bachun felt much more at ease.
