Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

So, Wei Xiaobao said, "Mother-in-law, this cultivation technique is not some Buddhist or Taoist scripture. It is just like the Shaolin Temple's Yi Jin Jing, which is learned by monks and Taoists. If we say that Buddhism and Taoism are different, it is just that their ideologies are different. They have different ways of understanding heaven, earth, and man. This technique is like this cup. The cup is a container for water, and the technique is a container for spiritual energy. Who can tell clearly whether this container is Buddhist or Taoist?"

As he spoke, he picked up a teacup and compared it to a practice. He then poured a cup of tea and compared the teacup to a practitioner, explaining: "Practitioners are like this teacup. They can accept various ideas and methods, but ultimately they must achieve their goals based on their own understanding and practice. Therefore, whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, as long as it can help people improve themselves, it is a good way of practice."

"Amitabha, Yuanyuan, the little bastard is right, you are obsessed!" Li Zicheng said suddenly. He clasped his hands together, looked at Chen Yuanyuan with a smile, expressing his agreement with Wei Xiaobao's point of view.

"Buddhism and Taoism have different ways of understanding heaven, earth and man! My dear nephew, your realm is indeed profound, and you are worthy of being a great monk of the Shaolin Hui generation!" Hu Yizi also expressed his admiration and praised Wei Xiaobao's insights.

"Thank you for the compliment, Senior Hu!" Wei Xiaobao answered modestly, and at the same time he was secretly happy in his heart. There were many interpretations of Buddhism and Taoism in later generations, and it would be enough to just "grab a few" of them.

"Amitabha, it seems that I misunderstood." Chen Yuanyuan felt relieved after saying this.

Then, Wei Xiaobao reached into his pocket, actually entered the system space, and took out two bottles of Qi-refining pills. He took out one of the bottles, opened the bottle cap, and handed one Qi-refining pill to each of Wei Chunhua, A Ke, Chen Yuanyuan, Lu Siniang, Li Zicheng, and Hu Yizi.

"Everyone, please eat it. It will help you in your cultivation." Wei Xiaobao said to everyone.

Everyone took the pill and felt the rich spiritual energy contained in it, their hearts filled with anticipation and gratitude.

"Big Brother, is this the elixir from the immortals?" Lu Siniang looked at the crystal clear pill in her hand with curiosity. It exuded a faint fragrance that made people feel relaxed and happy.

"Yes, this is a real immortal elixir! It's called the Qi Refining Pill, which can help us replenish our spiritual energy and improve our cultivation." Wei Xiaobao explained with a smile. He distributed the Qi Refining Pills to everyone, and everyone carefully took the pills with expectations in their eyes.

After the distribution was completed, Wei Xiaobao continued, "Okay, everyone take the pill. Later, please ask Sister He to recite the "Xuanjing of Cultivation" for everyone. Everyone should circulate the meridians according to the requirements of the Xuanjing and absorb the spiritual energy in this pill."

Everyone picked up the Qi-refining pill and gently put it into their mouths. The pill melted in their mouths, turning into a warm current that flowed down their throats into their stomachs. Then, a rich spiritual energy rose from their stomachs and quickly spread throughout their bodies. Everyone felt comfortable all over, as if they were in a fairyland.

At this time, He Tishou began to recite the "Xuanzhen Xuanjing". As her clear and pleasant voice sounded, everyone closed their eyes and circulated their meridians according to the instructions of the scripture. They felt that the spiritual energy in their bodies was becoming more and more dense, and their meridians were becoming wider and wider.

Under the guidance of He Tishou, except for Wei Chunhua who had never practiced martial arts, the others gradually entered the state of cultivation. Their breath became steady and deep, and a faint light gradually appeared around their bodies.

Su Quan, Shuang'er and Zhao Ling sat around Wei Chunhua, patiently teaching her how to circulate the meridians and absorb spiritual energy. Although Wei Chunhua knew nothing about martial arts, under the careful guidance of the three, she gradually mastered some basic training methods.

Wei Xiaobao concentrated his mind and used his intelligent eyes to carefully observe the absorption of spiritual energy in each of them. Time passed by, and before they knew it, it was time for the New Year's bell to ring, but everyone still did not stop practicing.

The next morning, at the time of Chen, the sky was still gray, but the whole city suddenly rang with deafening firecrackers. The new year is coming, and people use firecrackers to welcome this new moment, hoping to bring good luck and happiness.

At this time, Wei Xiaobao had already learned the detailed situation of the spiritual roots of each of them through his intelligent heavenly eye.

He discovered that his mother Wei Chunhua also possessed the same five spiritual roots as himself; while A Ke and Ling Zhao had water and wood spiritual roots; Chen Yuanyuan's spiritual root was actually water spiritual root; Li Zicheng had wood spiritual root; Hu Yizi had earth spiritual root; and the most surprising thing was that Lu Siniang's spiritual root was actually wood, fire and gold spiritual roots. This result surprised Wei Xiaobao very much, he didn't expect that they all had spiritual roots and could practice Taoism.

It is Wei Xiaobao's wish to create a cultivation family and let everyone in the family live a long life.

.........

New Year's Day, Forbidden City.

On the first day of the new year, as soon as the sun rose, Kangxi got up early, dressed carefully, and went to the Cining Palace with the empress to pay New Year's greetings to the empress dowager.

At the same time, Princess Jianning and Shuangshuang also came to the Cining Palace. Over the years, Jianning knew that her mother had been a little distant from her, but she didn't care, because she knew that all this was because of the mistakes she had made - having an affair with Wei Xiaobao and having a child out of wedlock, which damaged the reputation of the royal family. Therefore, although her mother refused her request for an audience many times, she still believed that one day her mother would forgive her.

Recently, Jianning learned that Wei Xiaobao was not dead, but was living well, and was even summoned by the emperor, reinstated, and rewarded with a new mansion. Jianning was very happy and in an exceptionally cheerful mood.

Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year. According to custom, married daughters should return to their parents' home to pay New Year's greetings to their parents. So, early in the morning, Jianning picked out a few of the most precious gifts from Wei Xiaobao, and then took three-year-old Wei Shuangshuang to the Cining Palace to pay New Year's greetings to her mother.

In the Cining Palace, Kangxi and Empress Tong Jia sat on the left and right of the Empress Dowager. All three of them had smiles on their faces and were obviously having a good chat. Tong Jia was the niece of the Empress Dowager and Kangxi's cousin. She looked a bit like the Empress Dowager, dignified and elegant.

At this time, a eunuch hurried in and knelt down to report: "Your Majesty, Princess Jianning and Princess Changyi have come to pay their respects to the master, and are waiting outside the palace."

When the Queen Mother heard this, a barely perceptible coldness flashed across her face. She waved her hand and said coldly, "Let them go back. I don't want to see them."

The eunuch responded and was about to turn around to reply, but he heard Kangxi walk in from outside and said, "Wait!"

Then he walked up to the Queen Mother and whispered, "Mother, you should meet her. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and there are a lot of gossips in the palace."
