The night is as deep as the sea, everything is quiet, except for the sound of falling snowflakes. Tomorrow, there will definitely be a vast white world covered in silver...
Jingyang Village was dark, except for a faint light shining through Chen Jianchen's study - unlike other people, Chen Jianchen always slept late and did not hesitate to use lamp oil; at this time, others thought he was still burning the midnight oil.
He studies hard, but in fact, he is often just in a daze.
Tonight, he was also in a daze.
In the past few days, Chen Jianchen has experienced thrilling and absurd things, which almost subverted his understanding of the entire different time and space. He needs a certain amount of time to digest it all - that is to say, during the day, facing someone who tried to murder him
Ah San and Chen Jianchen had strong murderous intentions and almost killed each other, but in the end they gave up because of some scruples.
In fact, since time travel, as time goes by, he has slowly eliminated many traces of his previous habits in his words and deeds. This is an inevitable trend. People need to adapt to the new environment while living.
Of course, Chen Jianchen's original intention has not changed. For example, he still hates eight-legged essays as always and cannot read the Four Books. In his opinion, the so-called sage books in this plane - the principles and thoughts advocated in the Four Books,
It’s really trite:
"If the king wants his ministers to die, they will have to die; if the father wants his son to die, the son will have to die..."
"Remove all human desires and restore the laws of nature, only then can we begin to learn..."
The whole article is full of blunt sermons on similar feudal principles and ethics, which is nothing more than trying to train the people in the world to become obedient people.
This is not true Confucianism, or rather, it is not the Confucianism in Chen Jianchen’s mind, but something that has been castrated and misinterpreted!
Therefore, as a time traveler, he has conflicts deep in his heart. If there is conflict, how can he read it? Can he accept it?
However, Chen Jianchen did not dare to reveal any of his rebellious thoughts at the moment, so he had to bury them deep in his heart. Moreover, for him at the moment, his status as a scholar was like a talisman, so it would be unwise to throw it away.
But this is not a long-term solution. The college will start after the Chinese New Year. During the study period, if you can't write those rigid and smelly eight-part essays, your flaws will easily be exposed - this problem is a headache, and you can count it with your fingers.
The day seems not far away.
Why……
Chen Jianchen sighed, stood up, and walked around the room with his clothes on.
Buzz!
Suddenly there was a slight tremor in his chest, his expression changed, he reached out and took out the amulet presented by Qingyun. He saw that the amulet was glowing all over.
Taoist Master Qingyun once said that if the amulet glows as a warning, it means that an evildoer is approaching.
not good!
Chen Jianchen secretly screamed, but before he could react, the south window was opened a crack, and whoosh, a white little fox slipped in.
Huh!
Chen Jianchen had already picked up a chair and was about to throw it at it, but he resisted when he saw the other person clearly - it was actually it!
I saw the white fox standing still in the room, standing upright, raising a pair of forelimbs to bow, and then bowed meekly to the ground, making a soft cry from its mouth, as if to say, "I'm here uninvited, please forgive me."
In this way, she looks like a little girl who made a mistake.
When Chen Jianchen saw it, he burst out laughing - he was not one of those pedantic and rigid people, and he knew that monsters could also distinguish between good and bad. This vixen knew how to repay his kindness, and was a well-behaved elf. Chen Jianchen was very fond of him, and he was even ready to go to Fengshan once he had time.
I took a trip to see if I could meet it again, but I didn’t expect it to come by itself——
So, he slowly put down his chair and looked at the white fox curiously.
Speaking of which, Chen Jianchen saved the other party's life on Fengshan Mountain, but the other party also sent him a magical fruit, which allowed him to change his body in a short period of time, so that he could subdue the rogue Asan in one fell swoop today and overcome the difficulty in one fell swoop - Yu
In a sense, it was almost as if the white fox saved his life!
One life for another, any kindness can be offset by it.
The question is, in the middle of the night, with heavy snow in the sky, what could be the reason for this mysterious white fox coming to your door?
"Chirp chirp..."
The white fox raised its two paws to gesture and kept shouting. Unfortunately, Chen Jianchen was so confused that he couldn't understand what the other party meant.
People have human speech, and animals have animal speech.
Communication is a big problem!
After struggling for a while, he saw that Chen Jianchen was still shaking his head. He didn't know what to say. The little white fox seemed a little anxious. He looked around and suddenly moved a chair quickly, placed it next to the table, and then jumped on it.
On the chair, it first bowed respectfully to Chen Jianchen, then stood upright and stretched out its right forelimb to pick up a writing brush from the pen holder on the desk.
This brush was used by Chen Jianchen in the past. However, since he got used to the evil-proofing pen, the pen was rarely used and was left idle in the pen holder. As for the evil-proofing pen, Chen Jianchen would clean it after every use.
It must be kept clean and put back into a special pen box.
After taking the pen, the little white fox took another piece of white paper from the case and carefully spread it on the table. Then he stood up and concentrated, and with a meticulous attitude, he started to write on the white paper with a pen!
Chen Jianchen looked at it, and his jaw almost dropped in surprise - this little white fox can actually write!
This situation is very ethereal and mysterious, giving Chen Jianchen an extremely strong sense of touch. Judging from his attitude and posture, he is just like a little girl who is knowledgeable in books and etiquette and is doing her homework seriously.
"Little fox has met his benefactor!"
Six beautiful small regular characters appear neatly on the white paper, clearly visible and distinct - this handwriting must have been practiced for many days.
Chen Jianchen couldn't help but applaud, quickly stabilized his emotions, blinked his eyes, and asked curiously: "Where are you from?"
White Fox picked up his pen again and wrote: "The little fox lives in a pine cave in the back mountain of Fengshan Mountain. Due to a chance, he opened his spiritual orifice and learned Taoism. Now he has cultivated to the realm of Yin Shen."
Chen Jianchen understands this - he heard Qingyun say that there are six realms in Taoism, namely Kaiqiao, Yinshen, Jindan, Yuanying, Dharma and Human Immortal.
Taoist Master Qingyun himself is a Yin god, just like White Fox.
The so-called Yin Shen is actually the soul leaving the body, which is basically invisible to the naked eye. However, this state is extremely fragile. For example, it cannot see the sun, cannot withstand strong winds, cannot come into contact with blood full of masculine energy... and so on, there are many taboos. Once the taboo is violated
, it is very likely that the soul will be scattered and die, and in the end only an empty shell of the body will be left, looking like a walking corpse.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, ascetics will not easily leave the body to avoid unpredictable and terrible consequences.
White Fox now has the cultivation of Yin Shen. If he can make great progress and go one step further and cultivate the golden elixir, he can transform into a human body. For a demon, being able to transform into a human body is considered a very high level.
Chen Jianchen was refreshed. He was not afraid at all now. The white fox could not speak but could write. With this communication method, he could get many answers he wanted to know from the other party...
