I have a relic of heaven

Chapter 33 People compare with people

early morning.

As usual, facing the 'scene of the sun rising and the moon not setting', after breathing in the thin yin and yang energies, Zhou Mu turned over and got out of bed.

He walked to the mirror, looked at himself in the mirror quietly, and looked at himself.

in the mirror,

His hair was disheveled, his eyes were dull, and his face was thin.

He couldn't help but think back to the big peng bird he saw in the enlightenment field, and the glance they had exchanged.

He saw himself in the mirror, and a golden glow appeared in his eyes.

fleeting.

Zhou Mu patted his cheeks hard, stared at himself in the mirror for a long while, and tried to recall that glance again, but there was no golden glow in his eyes.
It seemed like it was just an illusion.

"That big roc."

Zhou Mu touched the scroll in his arms and muttered to himself absentmindedly:
"Seemed to come alive, though only for a moment."

He unfolded the scroll and could sense that the true meaning was still there, but only about one third had been lost.

In other words, you can realize the true meaning twice, but without the illusory Bodhi, it becomes difficult to capture the true meaning.

"My comprehension has improved sporadically, but has it really improved?"

Zhou Mu sensed the changes in himself. His thoughts were indeed more sensitive. Even when he looked inside his own body, it was clearer.
The movement of qi and blood, the contraction and expansion of internal organs, and the flow of blood are all as if spread out before your eyes. You can see it immediately, with every detail clearly visible.

His control over himself has further improved, but that's not all!
"and many more."

When Zhou Mu looked inward, he saw a gap between the physical and mental barriers.
Not closed!

For some reason, the gap solidified, perhaps because of the small enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, or perhaps because of that glance?
unknown.

But that's a good thing.

Zhou Mu could feel the strength of his body and blood every time he tempered his skin, muscles and bones.
It seems that they will sync to the spiritual world through that gap, making the soul stronger.
Although the soul is many times weaker than the body because the rift is so tiny, it is truly there;
Likewise, every time the soul grows stronger, it will also weaken countless times along the gap and then synchronize with the body.
what is this?
Zhou Mu's intuition told him that tearing open the gap between soul and flesh would be a great thing!
But when he wanted to expand the crack, he found that the barrier had become tougher. With his current energy and spirit, he could not tear the crack open any further.
"What is the barrier between the body and the spirit?"

"Never mind, it's a good thing anyway."

After a quick wash, Zhou Mu walked out of the back room, only to see Sister Bai leaning on a recliner, holding the sleepy pigeon in her arms, her eyes wide open.

"Sister Bai, didn't you sleep all night?"

Bai Cuihua stared at Zhou Mu with bloodshot eyes, slowly moving her head:
"Haha, haha, I didn't sleep."

She stared at Zhou Mu fiercely, as if she was looking at a monster, her lips twitching slightly.

"Miss Bai?"

Zhou Mu shrank his neck and couldn't help but touch his cheek:

"Is there something on my face?"

“Haha, haha, no.”

Bai Cuihua gritted her teeth and retracted her gaze. She took a deep breath, exhaled, took another breath, exhaled again, and repeated this ten times. Then she said dryly:

"I heard that you joined Taibai Martial Arts School. Did you see your mysterious master yesterday? Did he feed you elixirs and teach you the miraculous heavenly skills?"

"what?"

Zhou Mu said confusedly:
"Sister Bai, what are you talking about? My master seems to be visiting friends in the inner city. I haven't seen him once so far!"

Bai Cuihua's mouth twitched again, and her eyelids twitched:
"Haha, haha, that's great, that's great."

She suddenly pinched her cheek, looking devastated and shocked:
“Very good, everything is fine”

Zhou Mu became even more confused:

"Sister Bai? What are you doing?"

"I'm fine, very good." She squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, turned her head away, no longer looking at Zhou Mu, and seemed a little angry:
"Are you not going to the martial arts gym yet? I'll keep this fat pigeon for you for a few more days. By the way, you should find a place to live. You can't just stay here with me, right?"

Zhou Mu noticed that Sister Bai's mood seemed...not right?
He shrank his neck again and laughed dryly twice:
"Okay, I'll try to find a place to stay in the next two days. I'm going to the martial arts gym first. See you in the evening, Sister Bai."

"goodbye!"

Bai Cuihua suddenly stood up, angrily pushed Zhou Mu out of the tavern, slammed the door, and sat back on the recliner.

After a long silence, she rubbed her cheeks viciously, feeling a little pain in her teeth, and muttered to herself:
“Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating”

"I have spent so many years and survived a near-death experience."

“It took a lifetime to achieve the connection between body and spirit, the integration of the inner and outer worlds, and the beginning of the unity of man and nature.”

"How come this brat can be cured in just one nap?"

"Why??"

She was a little mad, rolling around in the large recliner, tossing and turning. She opened her eyes in a daze, and just as she made a "gu" sound, she was slapped.

“Gugugugu??”

The proprietress seemed to be still not satisfied, and slapped the pigeon again, muttering to herself angrily:
"Why!!"

"Gu! Gu Gu!"

The pigeon flew up in anger and pecked the boss lady on the cheek. ………………

He rode a black wooden chariot to the martial arts hall.

"Little junior brother!"

As soon as I entered the door, I heard the call of the junior sister. Hu Leying, who was practicing swordplay with the companions, threw away the sword and jumped over:

"I haven't seen you for ten days. Did you miss me?"

The young senior sister, who was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, smiled happily.

"A little bit."

"Only a little?"

"I really want to."

"That's pretty much it!"

Hu Leying smiled with satisfaction and pulled Zhou Mu into the hall. The eldest sister was not there, but the second brother Wang Chonghe and the third brother Mi Hu were sitting at the square table, drinking tea one cup at a time.

"Junior brother is here?"

"Meet Second Brother and Third Brother."

"No need to be so polite. We don't do that here. What do you think?"

Wang Chonghe paused, stood up, walked around Zhou Mu once, then again, and said hesitantly:
"Have you gained weight?"

Mi Hu looked at him in surprise, and the smile on the little senior sister's face froze.

"Correct."

Zhou Mu smiled and said:
"I gained strength in the past few days."

“Such talent.” Third Senior Brother Mi Hu’s eyes widened in astonishment. Wang Chonghe clapped his hands in delight, “Incredible, incredible. It seems our Master has really found a treasure.”

The words were not finished.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Hu Leying was a little mad:
"Just a few days, just a few days, little junior brother, have you strengthened your body?"

"Why!!"

She was so angry that she jumped up and down:
“It took me so long!”

Wang Chonghe smiled and patted Hu Leying on the head, saying soothingly:
"Fourth Junior Sister, people are different from each other."

Hu Leying covered her face and said nothing. Then she stretched out her fingers and poked Zhou Mu here and there, grinning and looking indignant.

She howled again:

"Why!"

The three of them laughed when they saw her acting so funny.

"It's good to be strong." Mi Hu also smiled brightly, the scar on his face moved slightly, looking a little ferocious, but his tone was very gentle:

"Junior brother, with your talent, I'm afraid you have already figured out the skills in the scroll? I don't ask what painting you chose, but..."

After a pause, he continued:

"In the scrolls that Master passed down, there have always been only cultivation methods, but no fighting methods. If you are willing, after a while, when my injuries are healed, I will teach you a fighting method and a killing move that I have figured out myself."

On the side, Wang Chonghe said with a smile:
"Among us, your third brother is the best at fighting, so why don't you accept it quickly?"

Zhou Mu finally reacted and smiled and thanked him, bowing. His current weakness was that he did not have a killer move.
All they know are some ruthless moves used by street thugs, which are not presentable at all.

Just as No. 1 said before, it is sufficient for ordinary people, but not worth mentioning for warriors.

It’s just that Third Brother was injured?

Is it because of the Tianxiang Pavilion incident?
Zhou Mu thought for a moment and didn't ask any more questions.

The angry little sister next to him finally calmed down and interrupted:

"That's right. Master will be back in more than half a month. We won't be free then. Second and third brothers, when are we going to go out and play again these days?"

"No rush. The breeding area will be a bit chaotic these two days, especially the east area. Let's talk about it later."

As he spoke, Wang Chonghe smiled, patted Zhou Mu's shoulder gently, pointed at Hu Leying and said:

"Your little sister is the most playful, you should not learn from her."

"Okay, Second Brother."

The junior sister at the side rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction, but Zhou Mu frowned slightly.

Will the East District be in chaos?
That's right, Tianxiang Pavilion is in the East District. If this powerful force, which is comparable to Nonghuo Hall and has a real demon behind it, were to collapse, who knows how much trouble it would cause.
But Xiao Wu and Ling Yatou are still in the East District.

Zhou Mu made up his mind and made up his mind.

It’s time to go see Xiaowu and the others these days.
