Fairy cage

"Big Red, it's time to weed!"

A lazy cry came from the thatched house, and then, a fiery red figure flew into the medicine field and began to inspect the three acres of medicine field with dignity.

It was not until the red figure was almost done in the field that it chuckled a few times. Then someone opened the curtain of the thatched house and appeared in the field.

Yu Lie yawned, stretched, and said lazily:

"Another full day at work!"

He casually grabbed a handful of spiritual beans from the feed box nearby and threw them into the medicine field.

I saw an excited rooster crowing. The big rooster with red crown and red feathers flew in the air, with its neck pulled out of the afterimage. Before it landed, it pecked a handful of spiritual beans in the air. Eat clean.

After finishing the first meal of the day, the big rooster shook its feathers and walked in the fields with its head held high again. From time to time, it froze its body, stood on one foot, and stared at the ground with its two eyes.

After a long time, it would put down another foot and walk in the medicine field again and again.

In the medicinal field, sunflowers with twisted baby faces were turning towards it in a rigid manner. Each one showed human greed, as if they wanted to eat the guy who worked hard to help them turn over the soil and weed. Lose.

Yu Lie glanced at Da Hong who was working. He walked to the scarecrow brother next to the medicine field, took off the other man's hat, put it on his head, and then lay down comfortably on the specially built On the recliner, I continued to fall asleep.

In the blink of an eye.

The elixir fire in the Wu Zang Mountain became strong, and when it was noon, the sunflowers in the medicine field went crazy, each one spitting out flames, making the entire medicine field seem to be burning.

Only then did Yu Lie wake up leisurely. He hurriedly walked into the thatched house, took out a gourd of water, and casually took out the beans planted last year from the feed box, and sat cross-legged in front of the scarecrow.

At this moment, the big rooster who was working hard in the field also pounced in front of the scarecrow, staring at Yu Lie with two very energetic eyes.

Yu Lie spread his hands and said:

"What a big red! My master will eat with you and sleep with you."

Come on, one for you and one for me! "

He placed the spiritual beans in his hand one by one in front of himself and the big rooster. When the last one came, it should have been placed on his side, but with a flick of his finger, Yu Lie placed it in front of the big rooster.

After dividing the beans, Yu Lie said to Dahong: "Is this master fair and generous?"

Dahong immediately clucked and screamed. He cheered up, lowered his head, took the last bean to Yu Lie's side, and then nodded sharply.

A slight smile appeared on Yu Lie's face, he held his hands towards the other party and praised: "You are worthy of being the number one capable minister under my command, Da Hong, you are even more fair!"

There was a snap.

After finishing his nonsense, Yu Lie clapped his hands and said, "Eat!"

Then he poured some water into the cock, and then poured some water into himself, and each one of them simply devoured the beans.

After eating, Yu Lie touched his belly. Like a magic trick, he got another roasted pork leg in his hand. He placed the leg in front of him, took out a small knife, and slowly cut the leg meat. It tastes delicious.

Rooster Dahong had also finished his ration of spirit beans and was staring closely at Yu Lie.

Unexpectedly, the remaining ones said to it: "Oh, Dahong, you are a vegetarian! This is meat, you can't eat it, so I have to help you solve it."

Hearing the unscrupulous master's words, Rooster Dahong didn't think there was anything wrong, but nodded seriously, and then fled into the field, working hard on his weeding business.

However, in the meantime, when it sees bugs in the medicine field, it will always glance at Yu Lie secretly, then quickly peck the bug into its mouth, shake its wings comfortably, and then pretend to be nonchalant and continue working. In order to avoid being discovered by its owner that it is eating meat.

But little did it know that Yu Lie was raising it with the hope of letting it get rid of insects.

But unexpectedly, this rooster was too diligent, and the pests in the three acres of medicinal fields were not enough for it to eat.

Yu Lie simply gave it all the work of tilling the soil, weeding, sowing, watering, fertilizing, etc., lest it lose the meaning of raising chickens.

As for Yu Lie himself, after the rooster left, he took out another gourd. The gourd was fragrant, and he ate it happily.

After drinking and eating, Yu Lie didn't even bother to finish his chores. He threw it on the ground and waited for Dahong to help him deal with it. He touched his belly, walked into the thatched house, and finally started his own business.

I saw Yu Lie crawling onto a straw mat that was so poor that he didn't even have a bed. He put his five hearts in the sky and entered a state of meditating and regulating his breath.

Dahong outside the house saw that Yu Lie was missing. He ran to the curtain with light paws and feet, peeked inside, and then stood at the door with his neck and chest raised, looking sharply at the outside of the house to protect Yu Lie. stand up.

The reason for this is that three years ago, when Yu Lie was practicing, someone came to the field and opened the curtain while Da Hong was not paying attention, disturbing Yu Lie in the house.

This made Yu Lie vomit a mouthful of blood on the spot, and he almost went crazy and died.

From then on, there was no need for Yu Lie to give orders. Whenever Yu Lie practiced, Dahong would stand in front of the thatched hut with great care, with a dumbfounded expression on his face, but in fact, no disturbance could escape his attention.

At this moment, Yu Lie was in the room. He didn't open his eyes, but he noticed the stupid chicken's movements and a smile appeared on his lips.

While refining his Qi, Yu Lie murmured in his mouth: "If you are lucky today and thoroughly understand the Taoism of this world, this Taoism will lead you to be popular and popular in the future, and everyone in this world will call you 'Hong Ye'!"

Buzzing, the words fell.

The spiritual root on the back of Yu Lie's head sprouted. Compared with the three-inch Ding'er who first worshiped in the Five Zang Temple, it was already much thicker, nearly a foot long!

And the appearance of the spiritual root, its fruit is heavy and thick, just like the carefully tended corn in the field, and there is no trace of the foxtail grass from the past.

The zhenqi entrenched in Yu Lie's body is also much stronger and has nearly ten years of Taoism.

That's right, ten years have passed since Yu Lie worshiped in the Five Zang Temple, and he has been in the immortal world for ten years.

During the past ten years, he meditated day and night, working hard to refine his Qi. Finally, he was about to reach the second level of the cultivation technique given by the cheap master back then.

However, the achievements achieved by the rest of the group are of little use.

He had long forgotten about the "Thousand-Ji Girl" from back then.

There is no other reason for this. Ten years have passed, and three new batches of disciples have arrived in the Temple of the Five Internal Organs. Yu Lie, an outer disciple, has long been reduced to a useless veteran.

The female Taoist's request to him at the beginning was that he should cultivate to the third level of Cultivation Technique within three years before he could become a disciple.

Now that Yu Lie has not even broken through the first level, he naturally has no fate with the other party.

Not only that, Yu Lie often went to the main hall to listen to lectures, studied all kinds of classics in the Five Zang Temple, and was able to draw inferences from one instance to another. He gained a lot of admiration among the same batch of disciples, gained a lot of connections, and also got a lot of lecturers. favor.

Now ten years have passed, and others are having a wonderful time killing demons and subduing ghosts in the Temple of the Five Internal Organs.

Many handyman disciples also successfully accumulated merit and were promoted to outer sect disciples. They also took medicine and entered the Tao in one fell swoop. With the accumulation of the previous ten years, they have faintly surpassed the cultivation level of the rest.

This showed that Yu Lie, a guy who was just farming medicine fields, was really a loser. Although he was still an outer disciple, he was already far behind the batch of classmates back then.

At present, his reputation in the Wu Zang Temple is not well known. He is just a new disciple every year. When many Taoists give lectures in the first year, Yu Lie will shamelessly go to listen and enthusiastically answer the questions of many junior brothers and sisters. To attract a little more attention from everyone.

But the admiration of many junior brothers and sisters for him had just risen, and they learned about Yu Lie's name as an "old farmer" from the mouths of others in the temple, and their mood plummeted.

In all these circumstances, only his former fellow villager Zhu Tail has reached the sixth level of Qi refining and is about to break through to the later stage of Qi refining. He occasionally comes to see Yu Lie, which makes Yu Lie feel a little relieved.

Although a few years ago, Yu Lie was keenly aware that the guy would only come to Yu Lie when he was in a bad mood, especially when he was stimulated by the talented disciples in the temple. Most of them came here specifically to find balance. .

But now this guy is the only one who comes to visit him often.

In thatched house.

After Yu Lie practiced for a while, he had bad luck today. His cultivation still did not break through the first level, and he was unable to fully understand the techniques of this world.

He frowned and thought: "I have been attending lectures in this Temple of the Five Internal Organs for ten years, and I have read through all the Kung Fu books that I have access to. Why am I still not able to condense my own 'true seed and destiny'?

Could it be that my assumption is wrong? It is difficult to change the techniques in this world. I can only follow the methods in this world... No, this longevity medicine tradition is obviously very similar to the Taoism in the mountain and sea world. "

In the past ten years, in the eyes of outsiders, Yu Lie was incompetent, with high ambitions and low abilities. On the surface, he was full of Taoist knowledge, but in fact he only dared to plant medicinal herbs in the fields.

But secretly, Yu Lie was diligently studying the spiritual roots and Taoism of this world, trying to localize the knowledge of cultivation in the mountain and sea world into this world.

It's a pity that even if he has the original thinking, he still keeps trying and failing. He can only narrow down the goals one by one. In the end, he just wants to combine the orthodoxy of this world with his own magical power, but he still fails.

"Dog tail, dog tail!"

While Yu Lie was thinking, a cry suddenly sounded from outside the thatched house.

The visitor was about to open the curtain and walk directly into the house, but was pecked out by the red rooster guarding the outside.

Yu Lie narrowed his eyes slightly and coughed slightly, making some noise.

The man outside immediately said:

"Da Hong, look! I just said that Gou Wei will find him when he knows when I will come back. He is not practicing now.

Stop pecking, stop pecking! "

Yu Lie opened the curtain and as soon as he went out, he saw Pigtail with a red face and a look of helplessness.

Yu Lie whistled, and the rooster Dahong just stopped attacking the pig's tail.

He cupped his hands towards the other party and said with a smile: "Brother Zhu Long, do you finally have time to find me today?"

Pigtail, or the young Taoist whose full name is "Zhu Long", held a jar of wine in his hand and said with a smile:

"Look, I just came back from the mountain yesterday. This is the red daughter I bought for you from those naughty bitches in Pirou'an!

Still aged for thirty years! "

Pirou Temple, together with Wu Zang Temple, is one of the five great gates of Shou Shi Kingdom.

However, the other sect only accepted women, not men, and its behavior was strange. When entering the school, the disciples were required to cut off all the black hair on their head. Some ancient Taoist customs remained.

Yu Lie has read many classics in this world, and is quite familiar with the cultivation forces in this area. He has also heard that there is a kind of fine wine called "Nv'erhong" in this nunnery.

With a smile on his face, he invited Zhu Long to sit on the floor, and the two of them held wine jars and drank from each other.

While eating the wine, Zhu Long had an expression of endless aftertaste on his face and persuaded:

"Brother Gouwei, it's time for you to go down the mountain and learn more. Even if you don't want to slay demons, you still have to enjoy the beautiful mountains and rivers and the prosperity of the world.

Reading books and farming in the mountains are nothing compared to walking up and down the mountains. As the ancients said, read thousands of books..."

This guy started to persuade Yu Lie to go down the mountain to gain experience again, but Yu Lie ignored it. Instead, he got a reminder from the other party and said:

"By the way, did you find something new this time?"

Seeing that Yu Lie couldn't hear his kind words at all, Zhu Long shook his head, but he still took out a bunch of tied books from his sleeves and threw them aside.

Yu Lie was about to take it, but the other party held him down, used the book as a small coffee table, and placed the wine jar on it:

"Wait a minute, eat and drink with me first. Otherwise, if I complain to you here, you will make me a joke."

Yu Lie helplessly spread his hands and began to listen to this guy's praise and vent as usual.

After a while, when the guy left, Yu Lie had time to open a new book.

This time, Zhu Long seemed to have brought good luck to Yu Lie, unlike last time, which caused Yu Lie to fail in his enlightenment and hurt himself.

I only saw a classic book called "Meal Insights" that came into Yu Lie's eyes.

This book is not a guide to practice, but what a Taoist monk at the foot of the mountain saw and heard while hanging out in the world. It records various recipes, wine recipes, medicine recipes, inscriptions, etc. that he saw.

Among them, a rune engraving titled "Spiritual roots eat spiritual roots, true seeds match true seeds, Dao base combines with Dao base, three flowers swallow three flowers" made Yu Lie ponder.

After speculating on the runes in it, his ten years of accumulation shook, and the true energy in his body sprouted, changing on the spot. The rice root also jumped out on its own, breaking through the first level of Qi refining in one fell swoop and entering the second level!

When Yu Lie came to his senses, he had mixed feelings, and he immediately understood the best way to localize his magical power.
