Chapter 7
When the new disciples first entered the basin, the people of Shuling would rush to watch the fun as soon as they had time, but gradually, there were few other disciples who joined in the fun.
In addition to the senior brother Caixing who is responsible for guidance, they come to see the situation from time to time, only some of them are greedy. Occasionally, they are enjoyable when they see Xinxiu cooking. After all, they are still immortal cultivators, and their main business is to practice, not to watch reality shows.
Seeing that the year is coming, several new disciples in the Basin Zhongtian are about to come out, everyone is interested again, and more people come to visit, just like a group of office workers who meet to chat in the tavern after get off work to relieve stress.
"Look, they are starting to make trouble again." The senior brother who was lying next to the big jade bowl and laughed with his chin on his back and pointed at the children inside.
Caixing and the other two were not surprised, and only sighed: "It's really hard to mess around."
These nine children who have been in the world of the Basin for a year are no longer the same as they were a year ago. Thinking about a year ago, they were still stupid and squeaked when they saw a bigger firefly. But now, they followed their eldest son to the mountains and down the water, hunted lobsters and caught big birds, and tossed the world of the Basin for a whole lot. Even the youngest child was much more slim and no longer like to cry.
Recently, they tried to take the initiative to come out of the basin. This idea was originally proposed by Xin Xiu, and Caixing thought that this junior sister really had ideas.
You should know that when he was guided, he was obediently stayed in the basin for a year and never thought of leaving that world on his own initiative. At most, he buried all the iron scheduling tools, iron blocks and other items on the surface into the mud mountains to create difficulties for later generations.
But this junior sister Xin Xiu not only dares to think, but also dares to do it.
At first, she made a big airbag and flew into the sky. Because the wind power in the basin was insufficient, she gave up and used the method of burning fire under the airbag. As a result, the airbag failed to burn because it was not withstand heat. Now she wanted to learn from him to train a bird and let it fly into the sky.
Of course, it failed without a doubt. Caixing hugged his arms with some smugness: "They are not as big as birds, and they still want to train birds. That bird is just an ordinary bird in the sky and cannot understand human words. How can they compare with my spirit bird Xiao Cui?"
"It's interesting to watch. The junior brothers and sisters are so cute. Even if they are not successful, they are worthy of praise." Senior Brother Yu Feng waved his fan.
Caixing looked at him vigilantly, "Don't help them blow up that 'big balloon'."
Yu Feng shook the fan: "Junior brother, you misunderstood me. Senior brother is not the kind of good person who likes to help others. Senior brother just wants to watch some fun and fun. It's just a pity that there is only less than a month left in the year. When the junior brothers and sisters grow up, they will no longer be interesting. Let's watch and cherish it now."
None of the senior brothers and sisters outside the basin felt that a few children could come out of the basin by themselves, and only took this matter out as a fun and smiled.
Xin Xiu made a large pot of meat floss that day, which was made of bird meat. They caught it before, and the big bird used to try to fly was completely unable to cooperate with them. It was difficult to raise it, so it eventually became a meal on the plate.
The second brother was a little sorry at first, but after eating the delicious meat floss, he no longer felt sorry. He chewed the meat floss with his cheeks and stretched out his thumb to show his respect to the boss.
This gesture was learned by them and Xin Xiu. Xin Xiu occasionally has some habits that are different from them. However, because they admire the boss, they all followed them. As for how much they learned, it depends on their own opinions.
There is no year-round season in the pot, and the temperature remains the same warmth. Lotus is blooming and various fruit trees are bearing fruit. Even people who can't do anything will not starve to death here. In the mortal world, this kind of place is probably called a "paradise". With Xinxiu here, their lives will be even more free.
It's very good here, but Xin Xiu has been thinking about leaving here and going outside to take a look.
If she didn't know that there was a world outside the world, she wouldn't want to go out, but once she knew, she had to take the initiative to go out and see it. Several young people cooperated with her and kept making various attempts with her.
"Failure is the mother of success." Xin Xiu held a piece of cucumber in his hand, took a bite, and chatted with his younger brothers and sisters below. "That is, when you fail, don't be discouraged first, scold 'go to your mother', and then continue, you will succeed."
The second son, the licking dog, immediately patted his thighs with his remaining arms, creating a clapping sound, "The boss said it makes sense!"
Xin Xiu broke a piece of cucumber and distributed it to him, and continued, "Since you want to do something, you can't give up easily. If you encounter some difficulties and failures, you don't want to do it. Wouldn't it be a waste of time? It's better to lie down as a salted fish from the beginning."
The third girl, a girl who is a different type of dog licking dog from the second child, takes Xin Xiu's words as the standard. She nods seriously: "Sister is right, you can't give up easily. We failed once, twice, three times, it doesn't matter. We can continue to try the fourth and fifth times, and if we keep trying, we will always succeed!"
Xin Xiu nodded with relief. Isn’t this the truth taught to everyone by Edison’s story about making a light bulb in the elementary school text? But she nodded and suddenly changed her voice: “But the third brother, what my sister wants to say today is that it’s just a matter of no three.”
"The number three is very special." She stretched out three fingers, "Try many things three times. If you still don't see the hope of success, you can consider giving up. Not giving up is often called being stingy. In this case, a successful genius may appear one in a thousand, but most people will be left with the nine hundred and ninety-nine failed idiots, so stopping losses in time is what smart people should do."
Speaking of this, she also pointed to Lao Wu: "Don't learn my fallacies and evil deeds. I am not a genius and cannot teach geniuses."
Lao Wu was used to her casual jokes with herself in such casual chat occasions, and smiled shyly and didn't say anything.
The fourth brother was confused by her, "So, what are you trying to say? I want to say that we have failed three times and given up on heaven?"
Xin Xiu: "Of course not. Geniuses can keep trying. Ordinary people try three times but fail to give up. But people like me who are not as good as geniuses but are not ordinary people can try again. So, tomorrow we will make the last attempt to heaven."
Several children started to discuss it again after hearing this. A group of children always had endless questions to answer together, and they sorted out enough to write a million whys 20 centimeters thick.
"Boss, you have a new way to go to heaven? What's this time?"
"I think the 'big balloon' last time was pretty good. If the wind was a little stronger, we could fly higher. Would we say we were going to make a bigger 'balloon'?"
"Sister won't use the old method. She must have thought of a new method. Isn't she?"
"Last time the senior sister came to have a meal, and said we were going out in one month. Can we find a way to go out in this month?"
"Since we can go out soon, why do we have to try various ways to go out by ourselves? Wouldn't it be better to wait?" Lao Si was a little confused.
Xin Xiu was serious, "Fourth, you have to know that many of the things you want to do in the future are meaningless to others. But it doesn't matter whether it has meaning or not, as long as it makes you feel interesting."
Her theory was once criticized by her father as having enough food.
Lao Qi shook his chubby body and ran to her side to shake her arm, "Boss, just tell us, what have you thought of again~"
Xin Xiu smiled mysteriously, "Do you still remember the story of the magic bean that I told you?" She found inspiration from this fairy tale.
Lao Qi: "Remember, remember, it's the bean that grows so tall and grows to the sky... Ah, do we also want to climb the magic bean vine to go to the sky? But we don't have magic beans."
Xin Xiu hugged her, laughed, and whispered: "We don't, but the immortals have it."
Some time ago, when the old fairy with white bearded Jing Chengzi came quietly to eat spicy water to boil fish, she drank too much wine, so she took the opportunity to test whether he had such a magical plant. The drunk old fairy showed her a little, and Xin Xiu exchanged the fish with him for two seeds.
This kind of seed has been raised by Lao Wu. He stored green spiritual energy in every day. He just waited for the accumulation to complete and planted these two seeds, and could instantly break the ground and grow taller. As for whether it could be so high that they could reach the sky, Xin Xiu was uncertain. Anyway, he tried it, the interesting thing was this uncertainty.
Lao Wu was also a person who could hold back his work. Xin Xiu asked him to help, but he kept busy and did not reveal any news.
"Senior Sister Guixin came in a few days ago, and I learned from her that the senior brothers outside were not watching every moment. They were going to listen to the sermons of the master these two days, so at least today to tomorrow, they will definitely not be there, so we will take this time to sneak out." Xin Xiu took a branch and painted it on the ground, "Of course, the premise is that the seeds must grow tall enough so that we can climb out."
"The boss is worthy of being the boss. It turns out that you have already thought about it." The second brother sincerely applauded her with his feet.
Xin Xiu posed for a business gamble, "Hey, if you are too rewarded, you will be the boss, and you will not be sure of fighting. If we want to achieve great things, we will have to rely on your efforts tomorrow."
She put her arms around the neck of the second child, "I will go up tomorrow, the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, can follow, but the seventh, eighth, eighth, nineth, probably can't climb up, they are behind, and you will be at the end of the day. If we can go up, we will pull you all up. Your task of breaking the back is very heavy."
The second child was not like a few stupid children. He knew in his heart that she was considerate of him because he had only one arm and was not easy to climb. He also took into account his self-esteem and arranged this way. He smiled and responded: "Please ensure that the task is completed!"
"Okay, then everyone will have a good rest tonight to ensure their physical strength. Our last attempt tomorrow will be successful or failure in this way!"
The seeds tricked from Jing Chengzi were shining by Lao Wu's raising. After he was planted carefully, they grew in the wind. The few people were excited as they watched it grow taller and taller.
Xin Xiu hugged her arms and thought, "Am I really lucky this time and I was successful?"
The other few people looked at the boss's mysterious expression and admired him very much. As expected, the boss was right. She said that he could achieve success!
It has been growing into the sky, but it looks like a tree that reaches the sky. Xin Xiu has been exercising very well this year. It may be because she has lived in such a place for a long time and eats extraordinary things. She always feels that her body has become much lighter and has become stronger. Facing such a tree, she has no fear at all. She tied a protective rope and started climbing up.
The third brother tied ropes around his waist and climbed up with her. The dense and tough leaves provided them with a platform to rest. They climbed up tirelessly, and the fourth brother, who had poor endurance, was already lying down on the leaves and breathing heavily. However, as the fifth brother and even sixth girl climbed upwards, the young master couldn't help it, and continued to climb without admitting his consent to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Xin Xiu was the first to reach the dome. She looked down and found that the "sky" was far higher than she had thought before. With full of curiosity, she touched the "sky".
A hand suddenly popped out from the edge of the big jade basin of Yunzhongting, and then Xin Xiu's head also came out. She lay on the edge of the big jade basin, looked out of the empty Yunzhongting, and said with a wow, jumped out of the jade basin, and turned around to look.
The world they lived in this year was like a miniature bonsai, all filled with this large jade basin. The boundless lotus pond lake is a small piece. The large orchard that needs to be walked on a day is like a grassland, the tall mud mountains have become small soil buns, and the people inside are like a small ant.
She laughed and began to pull the rope on her waist hard.
One by one, a few people pushed and pulled each other, and they all crawled out of the jade pot.
Standing in the Yunzhong Pavilion, the few of them were amazed when they first arrived at the Basin Tian a year ago.
"This place... is really a fairyland..." The fourth brother couldn't hold it in and said in a trembling voice.
As its name suggests, the pavilion in the clouds is a white jade pavilion among the clouds. Apart from this pavilion, there is only a flowing sea of clouds around it. The pavilion in the clouds seems to be hidden in the clouds, and the world is meaningless here. Looking at it from a very high perspective, you can only see the clouds surround the fog and the bright light. The light comes from nowhere, but it is everywhere. Looking up at it is not the sky, looking down at it is not the earth.
The others were still in place and dared not take a step easily. Xin Xiu had found the way, which was a path hidden in the clouds connected by round white jade.
