Chapter 10: Going into the Mountains to Practice

With the "internal strength", practicing Qing Gong will be more effective with less effort. He has long been familiar with the footwork of Liuyun Qingshen Technique. Now that he has achieved some success in "internal strength", he should be able to start practicing Qing Gong.

During this year, Xiao Lin did not forget Xiao Shi. He met Xiao Shi by chance a few months ago and told him the secret of his mining. Three months ago, Xiao Shi also successfully became An outer disciple of Bailian Hall.

Xiao Shi did not choose a Qing Gong mind method like Xiao Lin, but chose a palm method [Liuhe Palm Method]. What made Xiao Lin speechless was that Xiao Shi was actually a martial arts wizard who only practiced the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra. In just three months, his internal strength has been quite strong. With the [Liuhe Palm Technique], even the outer disciples of Bailiantang who have been practicing for several years are no match for him.

This made Xiao Lin happy for him, but also a little disappointed. He even wanted to give up the Dry Water Sutra more than once and practice the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra again, but in the end he did not do so.

After all, he had already felt the sense of Qi at that time, and after half a year of practice, the "clear current" in his body was getting bigger and bigger, and the sense of Qi was getting stronger and stronger. He had communicated with Xiao Shi many times, and practicing the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra was of course It can also produce a strong sense of energy, but that sense of energy is indeed very overbearing. Xiao Shi was in extreme pain during the practice, and the meridians throughout his body seemed to be bursting. Moreover, after each practice, Xiao Lin did not feel any pain. That refreshing feeling turned out to be exhausting.

This completely extinguished Xiao Lin's idea of ​​stopping practicing the Withered Water Sutra and practicing the Hundred Refined Heart Sutra. After he stopped practicing the Hundred Refined Heart Sutra, Xiao Lin concentrated on practicing the Withered Water Sutra. Now the first level of the Withered Water Sutra - The Qingxin Wuwei has been cultivated, and now you can start practicing the second level of sitting in Yin and condensing Qi.

According to the introduction of the scriptures in the Dry Water Sutra, each level of cultivation in the Dry Water Sutra is very difficult, and the cultivation of the second level is several times more difficult than the first level. This makes Xiao Lin a little speechless. It took him more than a year to practice. Then this second level will probably take at least two or three years. This speed of practice is too slow. If you know the secrets of general martial arts, you can practice to the level of entering the palace within a few years. , full of internal strength, and a body of martial arts that is already unattainable in the eyes of ordinary people.

Xiao Lin, who has practiced the Dry Water Sutra, has completed the first level, but apart from feeling that his ears and eyes are a little brighter, he has no other feelings, and he has not found any power in this "internal skill".

Although the footwork of Liuyun Qingshen Technique has not yet started to be practiced, the one-year practice period has expired. He had received a message from the disciples of Bailian Hall yesterday, asking him to see the helmsman today.

Standing up, Xiao Lin looked up at the sun that had just risen in the east, took a deep breath, and then walked towards the attic.

There is a living room on the second floor of the attic. When Xiao Lin walked into the living room, he found that there were already five or six people inside. These people were not very old, the oldest was only about twenty years old. They were all hundreds of people who were about to go prospecting. The outer disciples of the refining hall are the same as himself.

Xiao Lin stood aside quietly and waited. After a long tea time, Wu Lian walked in from the door. Sun Fang and Xiao Shi were also followed beside him. Seeing Xiao Shi, Xiao Lin was slightly startled, and Xiao Shi also He winked at Xiao Lin, his eyes showing a bit of pride.

After a moment, Xiao Lin understood that Xiao Shi's martial arts talent was well-known in the Qingshui Lake Mine of Bailiantang. In just three months, he had cultivated the Bailian Heart Sutra to the second level of Dacheng. In less than half a year, he will be able to complete the third level of the Hundred Refinements Heart Sutra. Xiao Lin once heard Sun Fang say that it would be impossible for ordinary people to reach the third level of perfection in less than ten years.

It is precisely because of Xiao Shi's martial arts talent that he has gained the respect of the helmsman's martial arts. After all, such a martial arts wizard will enter the inner sect sooner or later. Bailiantang is not the only gang in Nanzhou. For Bailian Another direct threat to the Tang is the super gang - Zhu Daomen. Like Bailian Tang, Zhudao Men's business in Nanzhou is mainly forging weapons. This has caused constant friction between the two gangs. Whether it was the land or the mine, the two gangs had a direct collision.

Especially in the past two years, the competition for the mines around Huai County has made the collision between Bailiantang and Zhudaomen become more intense. Under such circumstances, disciples with martial arts talents beyond ordinary people are naturally favored.

A few days ago, Xiao Lin heard Xiao Shi mention that Wu Lian had promised him that as long as he could practice the third level of the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra, he would be able to return to Huai County, and then the elders of the inner sect would personally collect it. As a disciple, he taught the middle and third levels of the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra, and instantly became an inner disciple like Wu Lian.

This made Xiao Lin envious, but he was even more excited that if Xiao Shi could return to Huai County, he would be able to take care of his father and sister, allowing him to relax and concentrate on practicing and prospecting in the Tianlu Mountains. own worries.

Wu Lian looked at a few people with a smile on his face.

"Very good. You can stand out from thousands of miners and become the outer disciples of my Bailian Hall. Not only do you have a strong will, but also careful thinking is indispensable. This is exactly the quality that a mine-seeking disciple needs. From now on Starting today, you will independently go to the Tianlu Mountains to search for mineral veins. This book records several mineral veins that our Bailiantang urgently needs. As long as you can find a small mineral vein and successfully mine it, you can be promoted to an inner disciple. , become an existence like me.”

Then Wu Lian told everyone about the history of Bailiantang's fortune and the territory it currently occupies in Nanzhou. After talking for an hour, Xiao Lin and the others each received a copy of [Mineral Lode Summary] and walked out. The attic.

"Xiao Lin, how is your Qing Kung practice?" Not far after walking out of the attic, Xiao Shi's voice came from behind.

Xiao Lin turned around and saw Xiao Shi following him, and couldn't help but smile: "The Dry Water Scripture has just begun to improve, so how can I have time to practice Qing Gong?"

"Hehe, it's okay. Anyway, there are no hard requirements for you ore-seeking disciples. After all, finding ore veins requires a bit of luck. At most, I will be transferred back as a guard in a few years, which will also avoid the hardships of wind and frost."

Xiao Lin nodded. As a prospecting disciple, he has five years to search for mineral veins. If he does not find the mineral veins, he will be transferred back to the mine after five years and become a guard. Now the three of Qingshui Lake Mineral Mines More than a dozen guards were all former ore-seeking disciples.

"Have you found Xiang Kun's silver?" Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Shi with an expression that was half-smiling.

"Hehe, not only Xiang Kun's silver, but also Zhu Biao's pig head was looted by me. I now have thousands of taels of silver. When I return to Huai County, this silver will be enough for Uncle Xiao and the others to use for a long time. "

Xiao Lin nodded. He has never forgotten Xiang Kun's money this year. It's just because he hasn't achieved anything famous in practice that he hasn't done anything about it. Now Xiao Shi has martial arts, which is enough to rank in the Qingshui Lake Mine. The top five, this kind of thing is naturally available, but he didn't expect that Xiao Shi was even more powerful, and even the big tiger Zhu Biao also searched for it, but this is also a normal thing, although Zhu Biao is in the miners They are kings and hegemons, but to the disciples of Bailiantang, they are just pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

"That Zhu Chong seems to have become a disciple of mine hunting. I heard that he has practiced the Hundred Refining Heart Sutra to the first level. You should be more careful." When he met Wu Lian before, Xiao Lin saw Zhu Biao's face at a glance. Nephew Zhu Chong, like himself, became a mining disciple, but he was not as lucky as Xiao Shi.

"Don't worry, that kid is not on the same level as me and can't threaten me." Xiao Shi confidently patted his chest and said.

The worried expression in Xiao Lin's eyes flashed away, and he nodded without saying anything more.

The next day, Xiao Lin carried the dagger that had been following him for more than a year and carried the crossbow into the mountain. Even he did not expect that after entering the mountain, he returned to Huai County again, but It was already many years later.

The Tianlu Mountains are vast and boundless. Even if they go deep for thousands of miles, they are just wandering around the periphery of the Tianlu Mountains. In the Tianlu Mountains, there are countless spiritual mountains and spiritual valleys, and countless spiritual flowers and spiritual grasses grow. Naturally, there are also There are countless ferocious beasts. Each of these beasts is as big as an ox and extremely ferocious. Not to mention mortals, even martial arts masters who have practiced martial arts will most likely be in trouble when encountering such beasts.

In the endless Tianlu Mountains, in a green canyon, Xiao Lin held a fat hare in his hand and walked towards a hill not far away. When he came to the hill, he raised his head and looked Looking at the top, he took a deep breath, jumped up to a height of about three feet with a slight jump. It turned out that there was a cave on the cliff of this small mountain, and Xiao Lin had lived here for several months.

It has been nearly a year since he entered the Tianlu Mountains. A month ago, he finally mastered the second level of the Dry Water Sutra, sitting in the yin and condensing qi. After completing the second level, he was pleasantly surprised to discover his spiritual sense. Even more sensitive, he could clearly hear the crawling sounds of birds and insects within three feet. This ability also allowed him to survive dangerous situations several times. Ten days ago, if he hadn't heard a slight gasp in time, a gray The wolf almost broke into the cave where he lived.

Fortunately, he discovered in time that after a great battle, the gray wolf became his dinner.

Over the past year, he has been prospecting for mines during the day and practicing at night. Encountering ferocious wild animals and being surrounded by dangerous situations has become a common occurrence. Perhaps it is because of practicing in this extremely mentally stressful environment that he can successfully break through the dry water meridian. Go to the third floor.

Now every time he practices the Dry Water Sutra, he can clearly feel the coolness in his body, as if there is really a stream swimming in his body. Xiao Lin has fallen in love with that slightly numb and cool feeling. This feeling made him work harder to practice the Dry Water Sutra.
