Dozens of fishing boats gathered around one place, making it very lively.
With the slow dragging of a strong hemp rope, a two-meter-wide steel cage slowly emerged from the deep water.
Suddenly, the water rumbled, and large groups of white bubbles and water splashes emerged from the steel cage. The things inside stirred up the water with such force that the steel cage and the fishing boat above shook violently.
"Yes!"
However, these dozens of fishing boats cheered again. The four strong fishermen pulling the hemp ropes above stood firmly on the bow. Although the boat body swayed violently, there was no panic at all. With a crash, the big steel cage finally
Li Shui was dragged onto the bow of the ship amidst cheers.
In the steel cage, there were two huge and ferocious fish that jumped violently and hit the steel cage, making a clanging sound.
These two ferocious big fish that carry the coldness of the deep water are none other than the iron-headed pike.
Two slightly smaller fishing boats approached. One of the young men in a black short coat was Xu Sheng, the young owner of the fish market. When he shouted in surprise, five or six people started to use a special wooden fork.
He pressed the two big fish tightly, put them into a large deerskin bag respectively, and threw them into the waterlogged cabin of one of the boats with a pop.
There was another burst of cheers that shook everyone.
The cheers had not yet died down, and just as Xu Sheng and others were wiping the water drops and sweat splashed on their faces, suddenly most of the people on the bustling river looked upstream.
In the upper reaches of the river, a small boat was floating down the river, with a young man in a green shirt standing on the bow.
"Master Xiaolin!"
Suddenly, there was another burst of loud cheers from the river.
Xu Sheng's boat quickly caught up with him, and he excitedly bowed to Lin Xi who was smiling at him.
Lin Xi bowed in return and nodded at the platform of the small riverside building not far away.
The two boats headed towards the platform.
…
…
"Thank you for always fishing for me, but after today, there is no need to send fish over." Lin Xi and Xu Sheng stood on the platform near the river. Looking at the fishing boat that was still collecting cages, Lin Xi turned her head and said softly to Xu
Sheng said.
Xu Sheng's expression froze slightly and he hesitated, but he still spoke out and said: "So, the rumor that your Excellency will be transferred soon is true..."
Lin Xi nodded and said: "I am a cultivator, and my status is somewhat special, so the place where I will be transferred will be kept secret and will not be announced to the public. But in three days, I will indeed be transferred away from Yan."
Come to town.”
Xu Sheng was silent for a few breaths, then looked up at Lin Xi and said, "Mr. Lin... we can help you save the fish you caught, or send it to you."
"I understand your good intentions." Lin Xi shook her head, "It's just that the place I want to go is extremely inconvenient and difficult to deliver."
Xu Sheng couldn't help but lost his voice, "Sir, you want to go to Long..."
Lin Xi nodded and said sarcastically: "My opponents all know where I will go, so for me, there is nothing to hide, but I was afraid that my family would be worried, so I didn't speak up, so you can only know.
"
Xu Sheng was silent for another moment, then suddenly made up his mind, with a bright light in his eyes, he bowed to Lin Xi, "Sir, please let me follow you!"
Lin Xi patted Xu Sheng's shoulder and shook her head seriously.
Xu Sheng's head lowered.
Lin Xi looked at him and said calmly, "I know you are not afraid of death, and I also understand your thoughts. You don't want to see people like me die, even if you can block a knife for me, but for me, in
I will not agree to your request until I have any confidence in your safety. I came to you today just to tell you...if you help me and stay here, you may be able to help me even more in the future.
.”
Xu Sheng's head suddenly raised again, and his eyes once again flashed brighter.
This is the light in which a scholar dies because he is a confidant.
Lin Xi was not in a hurry, looked at the lively river with a smile, and said slowly: "The products along the Xizi River are very rich. You have many unique conditions to stay here. And I have heard before that there are more than one big
The trading firm is interested in your ability, and I have never doubted my vision, and the most important thing is that you are young and at an age that is very suitable for practicing."
Xu Sheng didn't understand the true meaning of Lin Xi's first few words, but the last sentence made him raise his head in disbelief.
"I'm not a very powerful practitioner in Yunqin." Lin Xi looked at Xu Sheng and smiled: "But I know a lot more things than they do, so it's easier than them to figure out some of the principles of practice... This
Practice in the world is actually not as mysterious, mysterious and complicated as most people imagine. Especially these days, I always feel that the root cause of practitioners is that the power of their thoughts is stronger than that of ordinary people... I have an idea, I don’t know if it is right or not,
Maybe you can help me try." Xu Sheng looked a little solemn. He listened to Lin Xi's every word with great attentiveness, took note of it carefully, and said softly: "What?"
"There is actually only one way to become a practitioner in this world, and that is to continuously practice concentration and concentration. Some elixirs should only have some substances in them that can nourish and strengthen the power of thoughts, which is equivalent to shortening this process.
." Lin Xi frowned slightly, as if he was also exploring, and said slowly: "Some warriors and soldiers, unknowingly, suddenly found themselves stepping into the ranks of practitioners. There should be many life-and-death strangulations and
Many situations that require extreme concentration have unknowingly enhanced their power of thought. You also know that many things, such as Iron-headed Dogfish and Laojiang Tuan, are great supplements for practitioners. This is a big plus.
Tonic, some of the substances in it should be at work... The elixir is just a collection of a large amount of extracted substances. So even if there is no elixir that can make people reach the sky in one step and step into the ranks of practitioners... If it is a
If an ordinary person often engages in concentrated spiritual practice and often feeds on these things, he may be very likely to join the ranks of practitioners."
"God should be fair to everyone."
Lin Xi looked at Xu Sheng, nodded at the sky above, and said seriously: "The reason why many people are unable to step into the ranks of practitioners in their lives is probably because they are not strong enough in will and cannot truly concentrate... and they cannot often get
A great tonic for practitioners."
"Qualification only determines the speed of practice. Whether we can become a practitioner or not, the key lies in our heart..."
Lin Xi said seriously: "For practitioners, the most difficult step is to ignite the seeds of soul power and sense their own spiritual power. As long as you take this first step, cultivation is not a mysterious thing that is difficult to touch...
I have already told Mr. Zhang that as for martial arts and some future spiritual matters, you can ask him if you don’t understand anything. It’s just the first step, you have to try to see if you can do it.”
Xu Sheng looked at Lin Xi, looking at Lin Xi's confident eyes, he nodded vigorously, but said in a somewhat puzzled voice: "I will try my best... How to practice this concentrated practice, as long as
Concentrate, focus on one point, no matter how you do it?"
"In recent days, I have learned a lot. In order to support some of my ideas, I also tried to find a lot of books."
Lin Xi smiled and said: "I saw a very interesting record, and it was a very true and unmistakable record from the military. There was one of the most powerful practitioners in the Damang Dynasty named Li Ku. There were many practitioners in the Damang Dynasty.
, they all call him Li Ku on the roadside, or Li Guanxia."
"Li Ku, a very powerful practitioner in Da Mang, was an outcast disciple who was rejected by Thousand Demons Cave because he was too dull. To put it simply, the practitioners of Qianmo Cave thought he was too dull.
, too stupid to achieve anything."
"So when he and many young people went to Thousand Demons Cave to become disciples and wanted to practice cultivation, a famous master from Qianmo Cave pointed at a ditch beside the outer road of Qian Mo Cave and said to him, look at the water in that ditch.
Shrimp, if a shrimp jumps out of the water and jumps into your hand, I will accept you as my disciple."
"This famous teacher originally despised his stupidity and wanted him to quit before the difficulties, but Li Ku was so dumb that he didn't even hear the strong irony. He actually found a jujube tree beside the road.
Xiapan sat down and stretched out his hands all day long, looking motionlessly at the shrimps in the ditch. It is said that he was so focused on watching many times that he didn't even know it was thundering or raining. He only saw his hands and the shrimps in the ditch.
Some small shrimps. As winter turned to spring, he actually watched shrimps on that street for three years. Many people passing by laughed at him for looking at shrimps. He was just looking blindly. He was so stupid that he really thought that the man from Thousand Demons Cave
What the famous teacher said was true. However, the famous teacher from the Thousand Demons Cave did not know whether it was because of his own joke or because of his sincerity. As a result, he left the Thousand Demons Cave and arrived at the roadside, in front of Li Ku.
I really want to accept him as my disciple."
"However, the moment he saw Li Ku, this powerful practitioner from Thousand Demons Cave was shocked." Lin Xi looked at Xu Sheng, and couldn't help but ask in a somewhat admiring tone, "Do you know why?
What?"
Xu Sheng was a little in disbelief and said, "Could it be that Li Ku has become a practitioner?"
Lin Xi laughed, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "If you can say that, you should have some understanding of what I said before... Yes, the reason why the powerful practitioner from Thousand Demons Cave was shocked was because he discovered that Li
Suffering has actually already taken the first step as a practitioner, and the level of cultivation is already not low."
Xu Sheng couldn't help but be attracted by this true story and couldn't help but said: "So this famous master of Thousand Demons Cave officially accepted Li Ku as a disciple and brought him back to Thousand Demons Cave?"
Lin Xi shook his head and said: "Thousand Demon Cave and Purgatory Mountain are the holy places of cultivation in Da Mang, and the famous teachers there... are the real famous teachers. This famous teacher did officially accept Li Ku as his direct disciple, but he did not take him under his leadership.
Back to Thousand Demons Cave. Instead, he continued to let him watch the shrimps there, because he saw that... with Li Ku's mind and his own naturally formed practice, his soul power cultivation level improved quickly. If he taught him new skills...
The method of cultivation may actually break Li Ku’s progress.”
"Li Ku sat by that road for another five years. One day five years later, the water in the stream in front of him was separated by his power, and the shrimp jumped out and was sucked into his palm by his power. That was already
It is something that only a practitioner at the national scholar level can accomplish. Then the famous master from the Thousand Demons Cave brought him into the Thousand Demons Cave."
Lin Xi said nothing more.
Xu Sheng knew that the next outcome would be that Li Ku became the most powerful practitioner in the Damang Dynasty, and the matter of being the top practitioner in the Damang Dynasty was too far away for him. All he had to consider was what Lin Xi wanted to make him clear.
reason.
He nodded again, and then bowed to Lin Xi with great respect again.
Because he knew that Lin Xi came specifically to teach him today.
Lin Xi also smiled and patted the young man's shoulder again.
Looking at this dark-skinned young man with a simple appearance, he knew that Xu Sheng was a little too old for spiritual practice, but for some reason, he always felt that he could become a good practitioner in the future.
"The same surname is Xu, the same Xu family... In the future, the Xu family of Donggang will be able to suppress the Xu family of your criminal department, that would be really beautiful."
