[Xiu Xian] Master, let's talk about life

066

The feeling of successful foundation establishment is amazing.

In addition to being more sensitive to the spiritual power cycle between heaven and earth, for Chen Xiuping, it was more of a sense of disbelief in the soul.

After all, a few months ago, he had already planned to give up the fairy road completely, and even prepared to go down the mountain to marry a wife.

When he was building the foundation, he couldn't help recalling all kinds of things in the past, thinking of Liu Huai's inexplicable appearance, thinking of the shock when he saw Liu Huai's face for the first time, thinking of Liu Huai stumbling to cook for himself, thinking of Liu Huai's constant Thinking that he had concealed Mi Wu's matter well, he thought of his loss when Liu Huai left, and the ecstasy and anxiety of being accepted by Cheng Yin as an apprentice, and he suddenly thought, I am now Foundation building.

Cheng Yin said to him before he retreated: "Building the foundation is the beginning of the road to immortality. What you think and feel when you build the foundation is often your future path, so you need to be calm and think carefully."

Chen Xiuping didn't know what it felt like to think deeply. To him, he felt that the breakthrough of spiritual power in his body was done in one go without hindrance, but his heart was full of turmoil, and he didn't calm down to have any special insights. .

His memories uncontrollably spread forward with the memory of Cheng Yin. He always thought that the past he had forgotten was vivid in his mind. Thinking of those pasts, he suddenly felt that his breath was not stable, and the originally condensed spiritual energy also showed signs of loosening. In fear, he thought of Cheng Yin again.

Before retreating, he said to his master: "Master, after the foundation building is successful, I really want to eat bacon and winter bamboo shoot soup. I remember you made it when I was at the foot of the mountain."

Cheng Yin nodded.

Chen Xiuping knew that the soup made by Liu Huai was actually given by the mother-in-law next door. He is not good at rejecting other people's kindness. Later, he discovered that Liu Huai was really serious about cooking.

Chen Xiuping, who was still Chen Dabao at that time, kept thinking in his heart: how hard this child must have lived in the past, and he ate such unpalatable things with such relish.

After knowing that Liu Huai was Cheng Yin, Chen Xiuping understood the reason. Cheng Yin's young family was ruined and his foundation was built in his early years. He probably didn't eat normal food very early on, and has been concentrating on cultivation.

Chen Xiuping once made a promise to Liu Huai: "When my legs get better, I will cook a meal for you." But this promise has never been fulfilled. Instead, it is himself who owes Cheng Yin more and more.

——It seems that even the inner demons are overcome by him.

Thinking about it this way, the spiritual power has gathered from the gas into a stream. Looking inside, the clouds and mist have become thinner and thinner, and the trickling water below can be seen.

As if God told him in the dark, he knew that he had successfully established the foundation.

"When the foundation was established, what did you feel?"

On the stone platform, in the cold light of the Lingzhu, Cheng Yin asked him condescendingly.

Chen Xiuping scratched his face, not knowing what to say, he filtered all the thoughts in his mind, and finally found the key point, so he said: "Winter bamboo shoots and salted meat soup."

Cheng Yin: "..."

Cheng Yin took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he looked calm again. He said: "After one month, it will be the Zongmen assessment, and the rest of the time will be left to you... to take care of it." Come on."

After speaking, he flicked his sleeve robe and disappeared into the stone room.

Chen Xiuping sat on the futon and meditated for a long time.

Finally, he finally understood one thing.

It's like the promises parents made to you before the final exam, but they often can't be fulfilled during the holidays. What the master promised before the foundation establishment seems to have become a mirror image...

"...It's common to all ages..."

Chen Xiuping expressed such emotion.

"I didn't expect that Yanshang Zhenren is such a person." Meng Xiaobao said, looking at Chen Xiuping's face, it was like looking at a disciple who molested a good woman.

Chen Xiuping didn't seem to realize it: "Is it? I didn't expect that the master promised the 'winter bamboo shoots and salted meat soup', but he didn't make it."

Meng Xiaobao was speechless for a moment, and finally said with difficulty: "If I were your master, I should push you off the cliff."

"...friends are exhausted."

So this matter was not mentioned, and Meng Xiaobao asked about other matters.

"So, you have already entered the restriction set by Elder Cheng Yin of Houshan?"

Chen Xiuping nodded: "Master told me how to get in, but it's probably only the first floor, right? I saw that even if I went in, I didn't see anything else, so Master probably doesn't live there."

Meng Xiaobao nodded clearly: "It's natural, you have to be more careful, Da Neng Cave Mansion is not a safe place - then Su Jiuniang doesn't go up the mountain, but just stays at the bottom of the mountain?"

"Anyway, this is what I saw after I went there." Chen Xiuping paused for a moment, then suddenly asked in doubt, "Brother, why are you so interested in Master's private life?"

Meng Xiaobao frowned and said bitterly and bitterly: "Because I'm worried about you."

Chen Xiuping was suspicious: "Really? Brother, do you have any intentions?"

Meng Xiaobao waved his hand: "What are you talking about, how could I have plans."

Chen Xiuping was silent for a while, put on a gentle smile, and changed the subject: "Senior brother, what is the general content of the Zongmen assessment."

Meng Xiaobao was rubbing the bark with a smile at first, but when he heard Chen Xiuping's change of subject, his expression became serious: "The assessment is actually not difficult, usually there should be three tests, which are called—asking strength, asking heart, asking questions."

Chen Xiuping said worriedly: "It's understandable to ask questions, and it's also common to ask questions. Asking—we are all just building the foundation, have we already determined which path we want to take?"

Meng Xiaobao raised his eyebrows: "I don't think this is the least thing to worry about. There are thousands of roads, and it doesn't matter if you follow what your predecessors haven't. What can the sect say, don't worry."

Chen Xiuping reluctantly gave an "oh", and then he continued: "Would you like to go to Ling Jianfeng to guide me - that's not okay, just in case the master is here."

Meng Xiaobao's eyes lit up visibly with the naked eye: "What does that matter, Master Yanshang is also an elder of our sect, and he won't stop the younger generation from sharing their experiences."

Chen Xiuping was expressionless: "Brother, you really have plans for Master!!!"

Meng Xiaobao's eyes wandered for a while.

Chen Xiuping rolled his eyes: "Please, aren't you always an upright gentleman in front of others? Can you be more reserved when you meet a beauty?"

Meng Xiaobao pretended to be indifferent and looked around, not looking into Chen Xiuping's eyes: "What are you talking about, I'm just curious that I haven't seen Yanshang, a young man who becomes famous, successful in cultivation, admired by everyone, isn't it normal for me to want to see him? .”

Chen Xiuping looked at him with a smile.

"...well, because he is said to be a beauty."

"I knew it!" Chen Xiuping couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to pat the back of Meng Xiaobao's head. When Meng Xiaobao scratched his head and innocently raised his head to look at him, Chen Xiuping said loudly——

"I absolutely, will not let you, a pervert, approach Master! Absolutely!!!"
