Chapter 39 Lie on the ground in the sun and know Shao Wei

From the next day, Zheng Qiu's hard life began.

Every morning after washing his face, Master Ming Zong would bring three big bowls of herbs to Fangcao Xiaoge, and Zheng Qiu had to finish the morning portion under his supervision.

Afterwards, he would bring Zheng Qiu to the mountain in front of Fangcao Peak, and let Zheng Qiu lie on the grass beside the mountain road to bask in the sun. According to his words, this is not called basking in the sun, but absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

The weather is now at the end of spring, and the sun is getting hotter every day, especially at noon, Zheng Qiu will definitely get sweaty from the sun. But Master Ming Zong did not allow Zheng Qiu to drink anything else, the only thing he could drink was the water in a porcelain bottle.

Unpalatable herbs, unpalatable water, in the first few days Zheng Qiu ate and vomited, and did not know whether these things had entered his stomach. Eating these things as food every day made Zheng Qiujue unable to sleep well, and even dreamed of eating grass in the middle of the night.

So he stuck out his tongue all day long, drooping his head, looking sluggish. However, his complexion is quite good, his cheeks are rosy, and he doesn't feel powerless when he climbs the mountain. I don't know what Master Ming Zong added to the herbal medicine, it seems to be a great tonic.

Although the herbal medicine was unpalatable, I got used to it after spitting it out. On the fifth day, Zheng Qiu was finally able to eat up the whole bowl of herbs. He still couldn't accept the water in the porcelain bottle, and every time he drank it, he pinched his nose and poured it all at once.

Gradually, those bitter, astringent, and sour tastes are no longer obvious, sometimes Zheng Qiu suspects that his tongue is broken.

The number of times Master Mingzong supervised him eating was also decreasing, but he didn't mean to teach him knowledge, and still let him go to lie on the grass every day to bask in the sun.

About the fourteenth day, someone came to Fangcao Peak.

This day Zheng Qiu was lying on the grass as usual, when suddenly there was the sound of a streamer flying above his head.

He turned over and looked up towards the sky. It was a man in a blue-striped white robe. The man was holding a big box in his hand, maybe it was too heavy, the flying speed was very slow, and the streamer was also faint.

That person also spotted Zheng Qiu, and slowly fell down here. After approaching, Zheng Qiu discovered that the person carrying the box was the young man who picked them up at the mountain gate that day.

The young man put the box on the ground, and with a bang, Zheng Qiu felt the ground under his body jump, oh my god, is it so heavy?

Seeing Zheng Qiu lying on the ground, the young man tilted his head and thought about it for a moment, then he showed a clear expression, but quickly turned into doubt. "Aren't you the child who came to see Elder Ming Zong that day? Why are you still staying at Fangcao Peak? The elder didn't drive you away?"

Zheng Qiu shook his head: "No, I now worship Elder Ming Zong as my teacher."

"What? Elder Ming Zong accepted you as an apprentice?" The young man looked in disbelief, and he re-examined the child in front of him up and down, "Don't lie to me, you didn't even wear the imperial uniform, how do I know you are Not lying."

"I'm not lying, I have Zongfu, but the clothes are too big for me to wear."

"Oh? What color?"

Zheng Qiu pointed to the young man's chest: "Same as you, with blue patterns."

The young man smiled happily: "Hehe, it seems to be true. After that, I have to call you Junior Brother. By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Zheng Qiu."

"My name is Shao Wei, you have to call me Brother Shao Wei, call me quickly."

"Well, Brother Shao Wei."

"Haha, hey, why are you lying on the ground all the time?"

"I'm absorbing the essence of heaven and earth." Zheng Qiu twisted his body, changed to a more comfortable position, raised his neck, and told him what Master Mingzong had said to him.

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Shao Wei held his stomach, laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up.

"Brother, what are you laughing at?"

"Hahaha..." Shao Wei tried his best to hold back his laughter, "How can someone absorb the essence of heaven and earth like this,

If this is possible, wouldn't pigs and dogs all over the world be able to practice. "

"But the master said..."

"Elder Ming Zong is playing with you, get up quickly."

Zheng Qiu shook his head: "No, there must be a reason why the master said that, I can't get up."

Shao Wei shrugged and picked up the box: "Then do whatever you want, I'm leaving."

"Hey, wait!" Seeing that Shao Wei was about to leave, Zheng Qiu waved his hand to stop him, "I have a question for you, brother."

"Quickly ask, I have to deliver something."

"Well, why are the colors of the imperial uniforms different? Is there anything special about it?"

Shao Wei pointed to the blue cloud pattern on his chest and replied: "This one? Then let me explain briefly, so as to save you from bumping into others."

Shao Wei told Zheng Qiu that Qian Yunzong used the color of his clothes to distinguish his status, and his seniority was limited to his usual titles.

In Qianyun Sect, those with green patterns are all disciples of the Outer Sect. Disciples from outside sects are also called temporary disciples. They don't have a special master. They can only come back to choose exercises and listen to the elders' lectures when the grand ceremony is held in the sect.

In fact, many disciples of the foreign sect are original practitioners from various places, but they just took refuge in the name of Qianyun sect.

Those in blue patterned clothes are real Qianyun sect disciples. They all have their own masters, can participate in most activities in the sect, and enjoy the benefits of choosing exercises at will and doing business with other sects.

Those who wear purple clothes are all elders, or people with the same status as elders. In Qianyun Sect, apart from the suzerain who wears gold-patterned clothes, the elders are the largest.

But there are exceptions. Shao Wei said that he had seen someone wearing a red patterned Zongfu, but Zongli never mentioned what the person wearing this color Zongfu did.

He told Zheng Qiu that there are actually differences between the uniforms of the same color, and because they are more complicated, everyone generally ignores them. If Zheng Qiu wants to know the specific content, he can go to Huisi Book Hall in Zongli, where there are many books of common sense.

After Shao Wei finished speaking, he carried the box and flew away from Fangcao Peak.

Zheng Qiu lay down until noon, got up and ran back to Fangcao Xiaoge to eat the second bowl of herbs, and then went back to the grass by the mountain road to absorb the essence of heaven and earth.

The sun slanted slightly, and in the evening, Master Mingzong flew down from the Fangcao Tower.

"master!"

"Well," Master Ming Zong saw a big square mark on the edge of the grass where Zheng Qiu was lying, and asked, "Who has been here?"

"It's Brother Shao Wei, the one who sent me to Fangcao Peak that day."

"Oh, so it was him."

"Master," Zheng Qiu raised his head and asked suspiciously, "Brother Shao Wei said that you can't absorb the essence of heaven and earth lying on the ground, is that true?"

Master Ming Zong didn't answer Zheng Qiu, he asked instead: "Since you know you can't absorb the essence of heaven and earth, why do you lie down on the ground?"

Zheng Qiu scratched his head: "But master, you said lying on the ground can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, maybe your brother made a mistake. And you didn't say, master, that you can get up and not lie down, so how can you stop halfway."

"Get up, the sun is about to set," Master Ming Zong nodded, with a gratified smile on his old face: "You won't come here from tomorrow on."

"Not coming? Where are you going?"

"Fangcao building."
