Cultivation

Chapter 11

After listening to Wang Linhai's words, Zhang Linggu obediently went to the kitchen to look for an axe. Just after he came out of the kitchen, he ran into Fengyu Tower before he found out where the bamboo forest was.

Zhang Linggu hurriedly saluted: "Master Feng."

This group of new disciples are all under Sheng Bei's name, because he worshiped Wu Jiu Zi as his teacher, he no longer pays homage to Sheng Bei Xing, but according to his seniority, he still has to call Feng Yu Lou a master.

Fengyulou asked casually, "Where are you going?"

"I'll go to the back mountain to chop bamboo." Zhang Linggu said hesitantly, he was afraid that Fengyulou would think he was too eager for success.

"Old ghost Wang asked you to go?" Feng Yulou understood immediately after hearing it: "You haven't yet enlightened the Tao, you can't breathe, chopping bamboo is useless to you."

"Ah?" Zhang Linggu was dumbfounded when he heard it: "Then how can we realize the Tao?"

"Everyone is different. Ziwei Xingyu is based on astrological astrology. Most of the disciples enlightened when they watched the stars or formed formations..." Feng Yulou looked at Zhang Linggu's hesitant expression, and he Ask: "What's wrong?"

"I don't want to learn those, I want to learn swords, just like you." Zhang Linggu replied hastily.

"Learning swordsmanship? Learning swordsmanship requires hard work." Feng Yulou looked at the ax in Zhang Linggu's hand, and said, "Let's hold the ax above your head and stand for an hour before we talk."

"Yes, Master Feng." Zhang Linggu immediately held the ax above his head obediently with both hands, and stood upright enduring the pain on his back.

Fengyulou turned around and left without saying anything.

Zhang Linggu couldn't stand still for a cup of tea, not only his hands were trembling, but his legs also began to weaken, but he gritted his teeth and held on.

After standing for almost half an hour, Shengbei led other disciples to eat. Seeing Zhang Linggu standing by the roadside like this, Shengbei asked curiously, "Linggu, what are you doing?"

"I want to learn swordsmanship from Uncle Feng, and he asked me to hold an axe for one hour first." Zhang Linggu was already panting when he spoke: "It is said that the way of swordsmanship focuses on body training, maybe Uncle Feng wants to make me strong first Let's go."

"Ah?" Sheng Bei scratched the back of his head. Although he also used a sword, he didn't enter the Tao with a sword. He turned his head and asked Shangguan Li: "Is that what the head teacher taught you?"

Shangguan Li blinked his eyes in confusion, and then answered honestly: "No, just let me run, step on horseback, and then practice hand gestures."

After hearing this, Shengbei said to Zhang Linggu earnestly: "I think Brother Feng may think that you have no talent in swordsmanship, and he just wants you to retreat in spite of difficulties. You still have injuries on your body. Don't raise it. Follow us." Go and eat."

"No... Uncle Feng said an hour, and I'm still a stick of incense away." Zhang Linggu insisted, "I must do it."

"Why are you a stubborn kid?" Shengbei looked at Zhang Linggu's eyes, knowing that he couldn't persuade him, but persistence is the first step in practicing Taoism, so he didn't persuade him any more, and hurriedly sent other teenagers to the kitchen: " Come on, let's go in and eat."

Guo Sixian glanced at Zhang Linggu's trembling hands, and sighed: "I'll save food for you."

Zhang Linggu held on for an hour, and when he put down the sword, he felt that his hands were no longer his own, and he couldn't care less about eating, so he hurried to find Fengyu Tower when he recovered.

At this time, Fengyulou was called over by Wang Linhai again: "If you dare to say that you are bored and want to chat with someone, I promise to send you to reincarnation immediately."

"Of course there is business." Wang Linhai motioned Feng Yulou to look at the book brought by Zhang Linggu on the table: "It seems that Zhang Linggu found it from the library, and asked me if he couldn't read. , I was taken aback."

Fengyulou picked it up and turned two pages: "This is... the writing of the Wu clan?"

"This is the wishing spell of the Wu tribe." Wang Linhai said: "The Wu tribe believes that everything in the world has spirits. Those flowers, plants, fish, insects, birds and animals that can cultivate some psychic powers are miracles in their eyes. This book The book is to invite demons to help you realize your wishes, and the twelve pages of mantras can invite twelve different demons."

He emphasized his tone: "If someone casts this spell in Qianshan and recites this spell, then the demon invited by this spell can cross our formation and enter Qianshan. Don't guard against it."

"It is impossible for Zhang Linggu to understand the characters of the Wu clan." Feng Yulou said: "He brought it to you to show that he doesn't know what is written on it."

"This time he found a book he didn't understand and asked me about it. Next time he finds another book he can understand, he may not ask me about it." Wang Linhai said: "Maybe it's not him, maybe it's the book. What if other teenagers were curious and got monsters in? This is a big deal. The library must be cleaned up. You can no longer let you read all kinds of books like your master did. The curiosity, ignorance and fearlessness of young people are the most terrifying .”

"I will consider this matter." Fengyulou said.

"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and do it." Wang Linhai said anxiously: "Our Ziwei Star is in a precarious state, but we can't stand any more blows and rains."

Fengyulou looked at Wang Linhai: "Why did you let Zhang Linggu chop bamboo?"

"Aren't I just helping you figure out a way? That piece of bamboo came back to life, which is a good opportunity for him to exercise." Wang Linhai said: "No one can help you think about it right now, but I can do it for you." You are so tired, check it out quickly."

At this time, Zhang Linggu found the place where Fengyulou lived. Unlike Fengyulou, which seemed to be a place where strangers should not enter, Fengyulou lived in a bamboo building next to the plum blossom forest.

The outer room of the bamboo building is like a workshop. There are several large cabinets against the wall, piled with books and some scattered gadgets. In the middle of the room is a large wooden table with some tools. At a glance, it is still an ink fountain and a plane. , the things on the wooden table in front of the window were even more messy.

There are wooden birds, puppets, and human toys on the table, spinning tops, diabolos, lanterns...

Zhang Linggu saw several small conch shells on the table, and picked one up casually.

When I went to the seaside before, I heard Wu Jiuzi say that there is a kind of snail called Huiyin snail. If you talk to that kind of snail and put it to your ear, you can hear what you just said.

Fengyu Tower can also talk to conch?

Zhang Linggu put the conch to his ear curiously, and heard a bright young voice coming from inside: "Idiot, I planted a plum forest in the west, didn't you say that there are many plum trees in your hometown, wait for you to come out!" Close it and remember to see if it looks like your hometown.”

This doesn't sound like Fengyulou's voice. Of course, the bright tone of young people will disappear after that age, but the tone is not like Fengyulou, and this voice gives Zhang Linggu a strange sense of familiarity.

When did I hear this voice?

"Put it down." Feng Yu Lou's voice came from the door unexpectedly.

Zhang Linggu was frightened, and when he turned his head to look over, he was in a daze for a moment, and the bright boy's voice sounded next to his ears: "Idiot, come and see, I made the Moon Fairy."

Moon Fairy?

what is that?

"I let you put it down." Fengyulou raised his hand, and Zhang Linggu was grabbed by a suction force. When he flew past Fengyulou, Fengyulou reached out and took away the conch in his hand He didn't stop and was thrown outside the bamboo building.

Zhang Linggu stood under the bamboo building and looked up at Fengyu Building. The sunset was behind the bamboo building, and the sky was full of clouds and red like fire. He blurted out: "Master, is there just such a plum blossom forest in Qianshan?"

"Yeah." Fengyulou stood there and didn't intend to let Zhang Linggu enter the room to chat: "You need me for something?"

"I have lifted enough for an hour." Zhang Linggu said hurriedly, "What should I do next?"

Only then did Fengyulou remember that he asked Zhang Linggu to hold the axe, and he said, "Oh, then go back and rest."

"I'm not tired, what else can I do?" Zhang Linggu said hurriedly.

Feng Yulou took a look at Zhang Linggu: "Then you go and pick up the petals that fell in the plum blossom forest, and pick them up with your hands."

Isn't this tossing people?

Zhang Linggu took a deep breath, even if he was tormenting people, he would have to suffer. He hurriedly turned around and walked into the plum blossom forest to pick up the petals. Every time he squatted down and stretched out his hands to stand up, the wound on his back would be pulled , but he gritted his teeth and persisted.

Sheng Bei came at about three o'clock. When Yu Jian flew over the plum blossom forest, he was startled when he saw a figure. He saw that it was Zhang Linggu, and he didn't go down to ask. Ask Feng Yulou standing by the window: "What are you doing? The spirit bone is still injured, why are you asking him to hold an ax and do it in the forest?"

"What he wants to do, I didn't force him to do it." Fengyulou glanced at Shengbei with a very strange look: "You and I have both experienced the hard work of learning the Tao, so picking up a petal with an ax is nothing ? You have time to worry about this, so go check the big array."

"You're not in charge of the formation... OK, I'll check it right away." Sheng Bei hurriedly turned around and left.

Seeing the sword light that he left, Zhang Linggu became more determined to learn the awakening of the sword, but he didn't expect to pick it up for more than a month.

During this month, he saw Fengyulou instructing Shangguan Li to practice swords, and he was very envious, but Fengyulou just refused to teach him sword moves, and kept asking him to raise the sword and pick up flower petals, or let him go to the back Mountain cut bamboo.

Although Zhang Linggu was impatient, he suppressed it. He did whatever Fengyulou told him to do, and he didn't dare to complain at all.

After staying for more than a month, Feng Yulou finally started to teach him the starting gesture, but he had already learned this starting gesture from Shengbei, so he was a little bit less interested in learning it, and his moves were a little lazy.

Seeing Zhang Linggu's lack of interest in learning, Fengyulou raised his eyebrows: "Do you think this trick is boring?"

Without waiting for Zhang Linggu's answer, he said to Shangguan Li who was silently practicing sword at the side: "Shangguan."

Shangguan Li walked over with a smile on his face, the smile disappeared in a flash, and then he clasped his fists at Zhang Linggu: "Senior Brother Zhang, please give me some advice."

After finishing speaking, she picked it with a gesture of starting.
