Self-struggle starting from Douluo

Chapter 206 Drunk
Now that they had thought it through, Qinghuan's carefree attitude made everyone a little uncomfortable, and Qinglin and the other children even had the illusion that they were being kicked out of the house.

With his insistence, the children were simply packed up and then taken away by Lu Man.

Looking at the empty house, Qinghuan was a little at a loss for a moment.

Isn't that what life is all about? Separation, reunion, separation, never seeing each other again... Isn't this a kind of tempering of one's state of mind?

And... I can live the life I want!
By picking up a few children, Qinghuan also picked up responsibilities. Now that the responsibility has been fulfilled, besides reluctance, isn't there a sense of relief in her heart?
The sky is high for birds to fly, the sea is wide for fish to jump!
……

Qinghuan was not in a hurry to live the life she wanted, but stayed in the house for a few more days.

In addition to stabilizing his own mind, he also pushed his cultivation to the level of a fighting master, and was able to release his fighting spirit.

Then he threw all his belongings into the "Blue", and when he was about to leave, he always felt that something was missing.

Just then, Hai Bodong came.

Hai Bodong used to be a little old man, but now that he has broken the seal, his face has finally become younger. Perhaps because of his experience of breaking through and then building up again, Hai Bodong's temperament has also become free and easy.

"Haha, brother, I'm here to drink with you as promised!"

Hai Bodong didn't even go out the door, he just dropped down from the air, took a quick look and said, "Huh?" "Brother, are you going out?"

Qing Huan's eyes lit up, and he said, "I was planning to go out for a walk and change my lifestyle, but I always felt that something was missing... It turned out to be a sense of ritual!"

Hai Bodong was at a loss: "Sense of ritual?"

Qing Huan directly took out the food that he had prepared for the journey from the blue bottle and placed it on the table, and asked, "Did you bring any wine?"

"Of course I did." Hai Bodong didn't understand why, but he was too lazy to delve into it, so he said, "Not only did I bring some wine, I also found a gift for my brother."

As he spoke, he took out an alchemy furnace along with a jar of wine and said, "I went back to the Mittel family and searched through their assets before I found this alchemy furnace. I can barely give it to you...

Don't despise me, brother. I see you don't even have an alchemy furnace. You can use this one for now. I have already told the Mittel family to keep an eye out for a better alchemy furnace."

Qinghuan had never used an alchemy furnace, but he had used iron pots to make a lot of alchemy. How would he know how to judge the quality of an alchemy furnace?
However, he was quite satisfied with the shape of the alchemy furnace. After taking a closer look, he praised: "It is graceful and elegant... What a great alchemy furnace!"

Hai Bodong's mouth was grinning, and those who didn't know would have thought he was talking about women.

After casually putting the alchemy furnace back into the blue sky, Qing Huan untied the wine jar, smelled it, and asked, "This smells quite fragrant. Is it considered a good wine?"

Hai Bodong was stunned: "Brother, have you ever drunk alcohol?"

Qinghuan rolled her eyes, too lazy to answer, and just went upstairs.

Hai Bodong slapped his head and said in annoyance: "When I get along with you, I always ignore my brother's age... I also found this wine from the Mittel family. At least in this northwest continent, it is considered top quality."

Qing Huan carefully tasted it, smacked his lips, and said, "It's not that delicious..."

As he said this, he took another sip.

Hai Bodong laughed loudly and said, "Once you drink too much, you will naturally become addicted to it... Come on, let me toast you first!"

After the two of them drank together, Hai Bodong poured the wine while saying, "When I meet you, I always feel like I'm blessed by God... To be honest, after breaking the seal this time, although my strength has regressed a bit, I have always had the inexplicable illusion that I've become stronger..."

Qing Huan drank and said casually: "It's probably the difference between body and mind."

Hai Bodong asked curiously, "What is the 'body and mind distinction'?"

Qing Huan smacked his lips and said, "The body seeks outside, the mind seeks inside... In simple terms, the body is to constantly accumulate fighting spirit, break through realms, and develop magical powers, while the mind is to go through various trials, find out the gaps and make up for the deficiencies, perfect one's own mind, and achieve the unity of man and nature.

Thanks to the special nature of fighting spirit, you all go to the heart to store the body, and as long as your aptitude is good enough, you can break through all the way... Even as long as your bloodline is advanced, you can directly overcome the obstacles of countless people.

I am different. I go to the body and keep the heart. Compared with the accumulation of fighting spirit, I pay more attention to the spiritual perception. "

Hai Bodong asked curiously: "Is there any difference between the two?"

Qing Huan blushed and said complacently: "There is a huge difference! We both refine the heaven and earth energy into fighting spirit, but what I do is called 'taking', and what you do is called 'borrowing'... Things that are borrowed will be returned sooner or later!"

As he spoke, Qing Huan lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "It is said that those of you who seek outside help must have some source energy if you want to break through to the Dou Emperor level.

But I am different from someone who seeks within myself. My nature is self-sufficient and I don’t seek outside. I have the energy within myself!”

Hai Bodong's eyes were filled with shock, and there was a hint of weirdness in them: "Brother, are you drunk?"

Qing Huan waved his hand and said, "You only drank a few sips? How can you be drunk? Let me tell you, the physical path may seem strong in the early stages, and the advancement path is simple and clear, but when you look at the heavens and the worlds, the upper limit is not high!

On the contrary, although the path of the heart is difficult to start with, and the process in between is also confusing and requires one to explore on one’s own, the upper limit is high, and it works no matter which world you are in! "

Hai Bodong hesitated, took a sip, and asked, "Are there really all the heavens and myriad worlds?"

Qing Huan chuckled and said, "Where do you think all the Doudi in this world went? Of course they went to the Ascension Dao World... Well, no, it should be a higher level world in the same plane, because the rules of the world are the same."

Hai Bodong looked at Qing Huan, who was in a drunken state, and said, "So, brother, you have already set your sights on becoming the Dou Emperor?"

"If I can't become a Dou Emperor, why was I born? Why do I practice?" Qing Huan said as a matter of course: "If I don't want to become a Dou Emperor, why should I follow the path of the heart?
The difference between body and mind is like fitness and reading. When you exercise, you can feel that you are getting stronger all the time, but if you don’t accumulate enough knowledge in reading, you won’t feel it at all! ”

Hai Bodong's scalp was numb with shock, a fighter... no, feeling the subtle fluctuations of fighting spirit in Qinghuan's body, Hai Bodong realized that after not seeing him for a few days, he was now a fighting master.

A Dou Master, in front of a Dou Emperor, clamoring that he wants to be above the Dou Emperor, even if he is drunk, will only make people laugh.

But for some reason, Hai Bodong inexplicably believed Qing Huan's words, believed that he really set his goal on becoming the Dou Di, and even believed that he could really do it!
Is my brain broken too? Hai Bodong wanted to laugh at himself, but he thought of the nine stone tablets in the blue world, especially the stories on the first four stone tablets... When he thought of Qing Huan's performance...

Doudi... above Doudi... all the heavens and worlds? Then, Qing Huan talked about the difficulty of the "Way of the Heart" and even pulled Hai Bodong to cry and complain that she couldn't bear to leave those children...

Hai Bodong finally figured out that this guy was simply reluctant to part with her and his emotions exploded.

Fortunately, part of Qinghuan's memory was sealed. Unless he actively mobilized it, he would only have a vague impression and would not say it out after drinking.

The drinking lasted until late at night. Hai Bodong was so shocked that he drank without counting the amount of wine he drank and got himself drunk.

After reluctantly sending Qinghuan to the bed inside the house, Hai Bodong found a room for himself, lay down and fell asleep unconscious.

Silently, a beautiful figure appeared in Qinghuan's room. Her face could not be seen clearly because of the mask she was wearing, but her figure was extremely graceful, and her long thighs seemed to be split at the waist. She stood by the bed, silently watching the sleeping Qinghuan.

After a long time, Qianying sighed silently, took out a set of bedding, covered Qinghuan with it, and then sat quietly beside him, as if guarding him.

……

Qinghuan slept until noon the next day, and when he woke up, he felt extremely happy in his heart, as if all the shackles had disappeared.

This sense of ease comes from sincerity, true self, and the origin of life, so from the inside out, it exudes ease and clarity.

This feeling reminded Qing Huan: "I have a bright pearl, which has been locked up by dust for a long time. One day, the dust will be gone and the light will shine through the mountains and rivers."

I thought of this: "The body is a bodhi tree, the mind is like a bright mirror, always wipe it diligently, do not let it be covered with dust."

I thought of: "The white clouds on the hilltops unroll and roll, the bright moon in the sky comes and goes. I lowered my head and walked under the thatched eaves, laughing a few times without realizing it."

I thought of... a lot!
Qinghuan had a feeling of complete peace of mind, and as a result, with a thought, the vitality of heaven and earth swallowed up like a whale. His cultivation level also soared from a one-star fighter all the way up to a nine-star fighter before Qinghuan stopped on his own initiative.

Small realms don’t matter, they are just the accumulation of energy... But for each major realm, Qinghuan hopes to carefully carve it out and understand it thoroughly before advancing on his own.

"Drinking has such benefits?"

Qinghuan chuckled, her mind moving, and the conversation she had with Hai Bodong last night came to her mind one by one.

"So that's it!" Qinghuan suddenly realized that only after getting drunk can one let go of all worries. The so-called "speaking one's true heart after drinking" actually has some truth to it!

Fortunately, nothing out of the ordinary was said. Most of the time they talked about the Way of the Heart and the Fighting Emperor...not a big problem.

Qing Huan stood up and was stunned for a moment. He touched the quilt covering him, and then smelled the refreshing fragrance left in the room...

This Hai Bodong, the old man, is quite romantic. He even knew to find a woman to take care of her... Unfortunately, he was drunk and didn't see what kind of beauty she was.

……

When he went out, Hai Bodong was chopping wood, and the two brothers of the Xiao family were standing next to him.

"Brother, are you awake?" Hai Bodong put down his hatchet and said, "Brother doesn't seem to have a very good alcohol tolerance, but he managed to make me drunk..."

Qing Huanle said: "It seems that I have great potential. I need to practice more in the future."

Hai Bodong looked strange: "Are you still planning to drink?"

"Wine is a good thing, why not drink it?" Qing Huan then replied and asked the two brothers of the Xiao family, "Did that pill solve the problem?"

The two brothers were more respectful to Qinghuan than last time, and both bowed down to express their gratitude.

Xiao Li presented a jade bottle with both hands without saying a word.

Qing Huan took it, opened it and took a look. It was a pill. He smelled it, pondered for a moment, and praised: "What a good idea!"

Even though he had already inherited the alchemist's legacy, he couldn't help but admire the thought behind this pill.

The pill was just a simple second-grade Ice Heart Pill, which used the harmless chill in it to force people's mental will to be awake. The refining technique was also the alchemist's "eliminate the weak and retain the strong", only taking the required properties of the medicinal materials and discarding the others. The effect of the pill was not completely locked.

However, he incorporated the properties of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire into the elixir, which not only enhanced the efficacy of the elixir, but also allowed the elixir to directly act on the soul!
The most important thing is that this pill has "magic"!
Qing Huan used the Pill Control Technique and the Bing Xin Pill flew out of the jade bottle and hovered in the air, reflecting a series of illusory images, which was the process of its refining.

After carefully watching the refining process, Qing Huan dispersed the alchemy formula, thought for a moment, took out a jade-colored Qi-recovering pill and threw it over, saying, "Excuse me, give this pill to him."

The two brothers were shocked by the scene just now. They became even more respectful. Without saying a word, they took it respectfully, saluted and walked out.

Hai Bodong then spoke up: "Brother, this is amazing. You can actually show the process of refining the pill!"

"I just know how to use it." Qinghuan said calmly.

It’s not that he is pretending, but he really only knows how to use the Dan Yu Jue and the Fire Control Jue, but he can’t figure out the principles behind them at all. There is nothing worth bragging about for something he hasn’t figured out yet.

After looking around, Qing Huan said, "Okay, Hai Lao, I should leave too and go for a walk!"

Hai Bodong asked, "Where are you going, brother?"

Qing Huan smiled and said, "The world is vast, and the road is under our feet. Wherever we go is the way to go!"

Having said that, he walked straight towards the door and left without caring that Hai Bodong was still in the house.

Hai Bodong threw a purple card over and said, "It's the purple card of the Miter family. Keep it in case you need it."

Qinghuan took it casually and waved her hand without looking back.
