Sleepy and Pillow
Chapter 146 Sleepiness and Pillows
Xiao Jing and Mei Zhangjian had been talking for quite a while in the room. If he held his breath and concentrated, Li Wuxiang should be able to hear roughly.
But he didn't want to pry into their privacy at this time, so he just listened to the sporadic voices of the two. At first, it was mostly Xiao Jing who was talking, and then Mei Zhangjian talked more, and then there were some laughter.
When the sun completely fell into the sea of clouds, Li Wuxiang went to the room on the left.
The furnishings of Lou He's room were also very simple, similar to the main hall of Mei Zhangjian, with a bed, table, chairs, and cabinets. There was a small room separated from the cliff side, with a small alchemy furnace inside, which was blackened by smoke and fire.
Li Wuxiang looked around everywhere, but didn't find anything good, so he sat back on the bed.
The sky outside was getting darker, and the sound of pine waves gradually became louder. He listened to this sound, which made his mind slowly calm down, and spent more than half an hour to run breathing and breathe in and out spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy in Youjiuyuan is very sufficient, similar to the Ranshan Secret Realm. The difference is that it is not as domineering and sharp as in the secret realm, but more gentle. If you practice here before the Dan, you should feel that the spiritual power accumulates very quickly. You are afraid that you will have to rest for a while after sitting for a while.
But now, Li Wuxiang can hardly feel the accumulation of spiritual power in his body. Maybe a little bit? But it is so subtle that it is basically non-existent.
This situation was also experienced when Jinshui just practiced the Huailu Baoxia chapter. But the difference between this time and that time is that the willpower from Deyang City has become less and weaker, almost the same as the effect of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth during Qi training.
In the few days outside Youjiuyuan, Mei Zhangjian told him a lot of things in the sect. But in terms of practice, except for asking him to take good care of the Dan and replenish Qi and blood when they first met, he never mentioned it again. Just now, Xiao Jingyi said that after the Dan is completely different from before, it will become more strenuous. Now that he tried it so seriously, he knew that Xiao Jingyi was right.
Just follow the rules, even if he is a Qing Nang Immortal with the power of will, he doesn't know how long it will take to pass the "nurturing pill" stage and enter the "cultivating pill" stage.
He opened his eyes in the dark, put his hands on his knees, and slowly drew with his thumb and index finger.
He is actually a very indifferent person with low desires. Of course, maybe because of his experience in the previous life, he hasn't figured out what he really likes.
He definitely likes practicing, but because of his special life experience in this world, he has walked the path of practice so smoothly that it is incredible. Therefore, he has never felt that this kind of thing is difficult like others, so he is really not as concerned as others.
In fact, there is another reason. It has been thousands of years since Donghuang Taiyi preached. There must be many strong people in this world, and there are many who are beyond his reach. In this case, there is no need to rush about this matter. Save your life, take your time, and have a good look at this magical world.
You see, the competition is so fierce, and the internal competition is so serious. If you join in and fight hard, the cost will become too high. It is better to lie down comfortably.
——These are all thoughts from the past.
And now, at this moment, the situation in the world reminded him of his previous experience.
In the past, in his spare time, he would play games on his mobile phone to experience the feeling of a normal person.
Once he randomly chose a game that he liked, registered, logged in, and joined it. After playing lazily for a day or two, he suddenly found that his combat power ranking was actually in a relatively high position. So he was a little surprised and checked the opening date of the current server.
Then he found that it was just opened on the day he joined. He used to think that there must be many big guys in this game, and it was not something that he could catch up with by playing casually, but at that time he found that he was actually a big guy.
The situation in the world now is very similar to his experience.
I used to think that there were many strong people in the world in the past three thousand years, but now I know that there was a big reshuffle three hundred years ago. Even if there are still some strong people, they have become very rare. My cultivation of the golden elixir ranks fourteenth in the sword sect. If I go to the six parts of the mysterious sect, I can easily become the lord of a city, almost a frontier official.
So, he seems to have caught up with the time when the new version was just released?
At this time, he doesn't want to be lazy anymore.
What's more, in the near future, the war between the six parts of the mysterious sect and the sword sect may start again. He has already taken sides and registered in the true form sect, so it is impossible for him to stay out of it.
The spiritual energy between heaven and earth is available everywhere, which is very useful before the formation of the elixir. After the formation of the elixir, like him, these things are of little help. The improvement of the realm mainly depends on the essence of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
People are the essence of spiritual energy, and cultivators are the essence of essence. But as Mei Zhangjian said, after the Dan is formed, it is to prepare for the Yang Shen. At this time, if people are used as medicine, let alone how to pass the heavenly tribulation in the future, even the evil thoughts in the heart will affect the future Yuanying and Yang Shen, and may become a cruel and bloodthirsty demon.
So from now on, he has to plan for himself diligently.
He sat cross-legged on the bed, listening to the sound of pine waves outside the house and the chattering voices of the two women in the main house, and slowly calculated in his mind.
First, you need to replenish your blood and qi. This is considered paying off the debt for this body. The Shijie Collection lists many prescriptions for replenishing blood and qi, which require a lot of natural materials and treasures. There seem to be a lot in the sect, but according to Xiao Jingyi, you have to do something to get it. In fact, this is quite good, which shows that the swordsmen are still clear-headed. Although they are open-minded, they have not made a mess.
After replenishing blood and qi, I am no longer a lame golden elixir, and I can officially start to cultivate the elixir. When cultivating the elixir, it is the same, requiring spiritual energy condensation, drug catalysis, and natural materials and treasures. But Mei Zhangjian said that the minister medicine needed for cultivating the elixir will be prepared in the sect, and you only need to find the main medicine yourself.
This, I will go to Mei Zhangjian tomorrow to ask what the main medicine is. If it is easy to get, I will get it myself. If it is not easy to get, I will do some work in the sect like others to see if I can exchange it with the sect.
It is really good to have an organization when I think about it this way. It is stable, reliable, and confident.
The premise is that this organization will not be destroyed by the Six Departments of Xuan Sect in a while, and that it will not be too difficult to live in this organization.
For example, Mei Zhangjian seems to have a very difficult life.
Today, he has actually seen clearly that although they are brothers and sisters, there are still differences in factions in reality. His own lineage is not in a good situation in the sect, and Mei Zhangjian, as the founder, is even more of a punching bag. According to the temperament of the swordsmen, they should not be in any material deficit because of this, but there must be disadvantages that they have not thought of yet, and they should know slowly in the future.
Then...then there are personnel relations. If you want to stay here for a long time, you have to figure out the personnel relations.
The big leader Jiang Jie is okay, but he seems to be a little soft-hearted and can be coaxed by a poem. Judging from his reaction to the poem, he should feel that he is enduring humiliation and preserving the seeds of vitality for the Sword Sect. If this is the only idea, then he really has no talent. If there are other reasons that he is not clear about, then his ability is actually worrying - he should at least come up with an excuse so that there won't be too much controversy within the sect.
Previously, I thought that Mei Zhangjian, who was about to become a Yangshen, was the second leader, but now it seems that it should be Cui Jianzhu. Cui Jianzhu's views are closest to Jiang Jie - one wants to keep a low profile and preserve strength, and the other thinks that he can cross the Jiyou Sea and leave Zhonglu. Anyway, there is no conflict in views.
Mei Zhangjian is the one who doesn't know what he wants. He thinks Jiang Jie's considerations make sense, but he also thinks that he shouldn't do that. If she was an ordinary Jindan, her situation would be much better than it is now, but unfortunately her cultivation is the second in the sect, and Cui Jianzhu seems to want to suppress her to prevent her from influencing more people and interfering with his own plans.
To be honest, if I were Cui Jianzhu, I would do the same.
Because from a personal emotional point of view, Li Wuxiang can actually understand Cui Jianzhu's thoughts. Jiang Jie and Mei Zhangjian, in essence, are not considering swordsmen, but Taiyi. For Taiyi, they can struggle and linger, just to rescue him from suppression.
And Cui Jianzhu should be considering the swordsman himself. After crossing the Silence Sea, according to Mei Zhangjian, no one may know Taiyi in a few hundred years - so what? Taiyi is the destiny of humanity. If no one remembers him, just create another destiny of humanity.
If they really can't create one, the swordsmen can also rest and recuperate elsewhere, instead of bleeding for Taiyi all the time. Destiny of humanity, there must be humanity before there is destiny. Before Taiyi became a Taoist, was there no one in the world?
——These must be the views of Cui Jianzhu.
If Lou He had joined Cui Jianzhu's lineage at the beginning, perhaps he would have sneaked into the main hall of the mountain gate of the True Form Sect with the support of Cui Jianzhu.
However, Li Wuxiang knew that he could not judge others in this matter - because he now had Taiyi's true spirit in his body, and before he had the power to say no, he still had to sit back and watch and acquiesce to the swordsmen continuing to bleed for Taiyi.
So he slowly exhaled and closed his eyes again. Mei Zhangjian seemed to no longer need to sleep, but he still wanted to take a nap.
But not long after, he suddenly heard two soft sounds from the window frame. He thought it was the pine cones that were blown down by the wind and hit the window frame, but then he heard a voice: "Hey, Li Wuxiang? Your name is Li Wuxiang, right?"
It sounded like a male voice, quite young, and his tone was full of curiosity. Li Wuxiang suddenly opened his eyes, and his heart was only slightly alerted and then relaxed - a Yuanying and a Jindan were next door, and the ones who came would definitely not be bad things.
He stretched his legs out of bed and walked to the window, pushed the window open and looked out, and sure enough, he saw a young face.
He had clear eyebrows and eyes, and was very likable. He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and could still be considered a teenager. At first glance, it seemed like he was his peer.
The owner of this face seemed to have not expected Li Wuxiang to suddenly open the window. He was slightly stunned and took a step back.
Li Wuxiang leaned his arm on the windowsill and looked in the direction of the main house: "Yes, I am. Who are you?"
"Li Ke, my name is Li Ke." The boy arched his hand to Li Wuxiang, but fell silent, as if he had forgotten what he was going to say.
But Li Wuxiang remembered that when he was outside with Mei Zhangjian, he saw a boy sitting on the top of a stone pillar and smiled at him. It seemed to be him.
Li Wuxiang smiled at him: "Okay, Li Ke, do you have something to talk to me about?"
"Oh, oh, something." Li Ke thought for a while, reached into his arms and took out a paper bag and handed it to the windowsill, spreading it out, "This is for you, I don't know if you like it."
Li Wuxiang looked down and saw some preserved fruits, pine nuts, dried meat and the like mixed together. It is expected that the person who gave these things must have improvised and pieced them together.
But what’s the point of delivering snacks in the middle of the night?
Seeing his expression, Li Ke scratched his head: "Oh, don't you like it? I thought people from the Mei Zhangjian lineage liked to eat it."
ha? Mei Zhangjian liked it, and Zeng Jianqiu seemed to like it too. He enjoyed the fried pancakes that day.
"I quite like it." Li Wuxiang smiled, "But what do you want from me?"
Li Ke looked in the direction of the main room and took two steps closer to the window sill: "Are Senior Brother Zeng and Senior Brother Pan... I just heard that they are not very good?"
Li Wuxiang looked at him for a moment and then said, "Yeah."
This Li Ke should not be from Sword Master Cui's lineage. What are you doing here at Jiuzhu Peak?
"Hey, I don't mean anything else. I just heard about you. You know, you are famous in the sect." Li Ke whispered, "Did you kill a Zhenxing cultist in Ranshan first?" You are walking, and you killed the city lord of Coffin City with Mei Zhangjian? That’s so awesome. I heard that our sword sect has not been this powerful in many years. I really admire you!”
Now Li Wuxiang was sure that this person really had something to do with him.
He stopped being anxious, and leaned against the window sill with a smile: "Oh? I don't even know, how can you say mine?"
Li Ke's expression suddenly relaxed and he was beaming: "You must be saying that you want us to feel proud. The Xuanjiao has tricked us You Jiuyuan several times, but we still swallowed our anger and did not go to the Xuanjiao. Now I heard that none of them have come. The swordsman who crossed the Netherworld killed Zhenxing Sect's walking, this is really a relief!"
"I heard a few days ago that you and Mei Zhangjian destroyed the coffin mountain. That's even more - even more so, oops!" Li Ke smashed the wall, "No matter what else they say, we newbies Everyone who comes to the sect thinks that this is what a swordsman should do! It’s much better than just writing and drawing all day long!”
Li Wuxiang shook his head: "The rumor is that the coffin mountain was destroyed and the owner of the mountain was killed? This is not quite right."
Li Ke was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
"The Plum Palm Sword remained outside the coffin city for three days, and he killed two other city lords of the True Form Sect one by one with one sword." Li Wuxiang said seriously, "When I killed the first one, he didn't react yet. When he came over, his head fell to the ground. The second one was frightened, but he was too embarrassed to retreat immediately. Mei Zhangjian walked up to the slope and told him that he was collecting debts for the disciples of Jianzong - he was talking about Senior Brother Helian. ”
"The city lord was so frightened that he said, you have killed two city lords, so the debt should be paid, right? Mei Zhangjian sneered and said, are your lives worthy of being compared with those of the Sword Sect disciples? That city lord knew that Mei Zhangjian If you have to take his life, just tell him quickly, the Six Mysterious Sect is planning to attack You Jiuyuan again, can you spare his life if he says this? Mei Zhangjian smiled coldly, and the man's head fell to the ground. Yes—that’s actually what happened.”
Li Ke's eyes lit up and he waved his fist: "Yes! Mei Zhang Jian said well! What about you? We heard that you were in Coffin City - that mountain master invited the true spirits of the Five Mountains, right!?"
Li Wuxiang smiled faintly: "Looking older and more fierce, there is nothing surprising. I told him to learn your methods - after saying that, Mei Zhangjian took action, but I didn't expect to learn. "
"You...Senior Brother Li, you were able to cultivate the golden elixir in just a few months, right?"
"Good luck."
Li Ke took a few breaths and smacked his lips: "Really, I wish I were as good as you, Senior Brother Li..."
Li Wuxiang smiled and said, "Okay, what on earth do you want?"
Li Ke came closer: "I just...that's what happened. Senior Brother Li, you know that there will be a meeting in the sect in three days, right?"
"Yeah, I know."
Mei Zhangjian said it when he came. The Sword Sect holds a meeting every six months, which in his opinion is very much like a mid-year meeting - releasing information on rewards and punishments, arranging future work, and making a half-year summary. Everyone is not required to be present, but those who can come back will come back. According to what she said, it is time to decide whether to hold the sword or not.
However, looking at Sword Master Cui's behavior during the day, I'm afraid that Mei Zhangjian and himself will not get along well by then.
"Well, this, how should I put it, is..." Li Ke frowned and scratched his head, as if he had not thought about how to organize the words, or was not very used to what he was about to say.
Li Wuxiang kept staring at him. The swordsman's age cannot be judged from his appearance, but it can be judged from his body movements and language.
Li Ke looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old. His actual age should be a little older, but not much older. This person doesn't seem to be a scheming person, but he seems to be quite simple.
So Li Wuxiang asked directly: "What do you want me to do?"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, but seemed to be relieved, and immediately said: "I want to ask you to help me find Long live!"
Li Wuxiang was silent for a moment: "Why do you want me to help you find it?"
"Because, this, um... that is, Senior Brother Zeng and Senior Brother Pan are both because something happened to Senior Brother Lou, and Senior Brother Lou is from the lineage of Mei Zhangjian... So when the time comes, when it comes to the meeting, Zongli, Zongli must ask about Mei Zhangjian," Li Ke said. In the first few sentences, the words became smoother, "But Banzai can cure them. If Banzai is found, won't this matter be over by the time of the meeting? We all admire you and Mei Zhangjian, Senior Brother Li. Li Senior brother, you are the Golden Core Swordsman again! So, you asked me to come -"
Li Ke paused, and his face suddenly turned red: "Actually, I want it myself."
"Who are you referring to?"
"We are the ones who have just joined the sect. We are not from the lineage of Cui Jianzhu, and we all admire you and Mei Zhangjian!"
These words should not have come from Li Ke himself. Either they were taught by others, or they were discussed by the "we" in his mouth. Maybe because it was such a naked declaration of interests, he was embarrassed to say it out loud.
Then, there is still a young and strong war faction in the Sword Sect? Interesting, it is really small but complete.
Li Wuxiang nodded: "But Mei Zhangjian said that he hasn't seen that thing for more than 300 years."
"So you agree, right!?" Li Ke widened his eyes, "I know where that thing is!"
