Xiu Erdai's daily essays

1544_Readaptation

I introduced: "This is Pei Bing, my Lingbao, not a puppet doll."

Ping Youping: "Ah... Lingbao... My other dream is to refine Lingbao."

Me: "...I guess you may have more than two ideals?"

Ping Youping smiled: "Yes, I have a lot of ideals. Some have already been realized, some are on the way, and some are far away but I feel that I am always approaching."

Me: "Come on."

Ping Youping: "I've been working hard all the time."

After Chu Wuliu's body became an adult—now he looked like a young man in his 20s—his pill refining was not going well.This is normal, because any occupation of a monk requires physical coordination.Physical strength does not have to be overbearing, but coordination must be good. Even if you are a fortune-teller or Confucianism cultivator who is quiet and hyperactive, physical condition is also very important.

Danxiu requires fine manipulation when making alchemy. When putting in materials, you need to weigh how much to put in, what frequency to put in, how to mix spiritual power... These are the intuitions that are gradually integrated into the body through repeated practical operations. You don't need to think about it when you make it, and you can get the weight you want with just one move.This kind of feeling engraved into the body, once the body undergoes a major change, the previous feeling of proficiency will disappear, and one can only use the brain to carry out the whole process of calculation, and build up the refining instinct for the new body from scratch.

Normal monks can adjust body parameters arbitrarily without affecting their hand feeling when they reach the Nascent Soul stage, because they are slowly learning to let the "hand feel" be used by the body at will without being bound by the body during the entire golden elixir stage. The "feeling" has gradually moved away from the sense of being dominated by the body and assisted by spiritual power, and has become a comprehensive instinct that is equally divided among body, spiritual power, soul, and spiritual consciousness.When they break through the golden core and step into the Nascent Soul with their own strength, they will naturally get rid of the obedience to the inherent shell-expelling, or in other words, only when they can get rid of the shackles of the inherent shell-expelling, they can enter the Nascent Soul stage.

No matter what kind of body is my body, I can control it precisely, and it can display my full strength. This is a normal Nascent Soul cultivator.

He has a deep understanding of the essence of the body, and changes in the appearance of the body do not interfere with it.

Obviously, it is impossible for Chu Wuliu, who has just fallen back from the Golden Core Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, to have reached that state, and of course he will be disturbed by the change in body shape.From a child's body to an adult's body suddenly, coupled with the sequelae of Sui Dan, he needs to regain his hand feeling... Optimistically, the time unit is calculated in years.

1545_ Don't think about victory, think about defeat

Chu Wuliu is now refining Bigu Pill, and I asked about the burnt aroma.

After another coking furnace, Chu Wuliu raised his head and looked at me peacefully with some embarrassment: "I'm laughing at you. You know the process very well, but your hands and spiritual power are not in control. You know what's wrong, but you can't help it." To be able to watch it continue to go wrong.”

Ping Youping: "It's very fragrant."

Hmm, the smell of crispy rice.It's just that Bigu Dan should have almost no smell.

After most of the elixirs are refined, the exposed smell is so light that there is almost no smell, and all the smells are locked in the elixir together with the properties of the medicine.The new elixir often smells stronger than the old elixir. In fact, most of the time, it is not the smell of the elixir itself, but the smell of various materials from the alchemy site.After a long time, the smell of other things remaining on the surface will scatter, and the real smell of the elixir will be revealed shallowly, lingering around the periphery of the elixir, converging, not drifting away, getting closer, and even using spiritual power to stimulate it. To smell slightly.

What Chu Wuliu is refining now, he can tell by his sense of smell that it is not a pill, but a furnace of... Chowder pancakes?

I asked: "How do your medicine sects generally deal with failed pills?"

Chu Wuliu: "The raw materials that can be recycled should be recycled as much as possible, and those that cannot be recycled can be used as the basic materials for refining other elixirs. Some elixirs are very inclusive, and the failed products of other elixirs can be used as base materials."

Me: "Is this how the failed products of Bigu Pill are handled?"

Chu Wuliu: "Yes, we have a special course for the recovery of failed pills. From the beginning of learning alchemy, we also learned waste disposal. Bigu Dan is the foundation, laying the foundation for all aspects."

Ping Youping: "We are the same. At the beginning, we learned more about how to deal with failed products than how to successfully refine them. For a while, I couldn't tell what was success and what was failure. When the refinement was successful, the seniors glanced at it. At a glance; on the contrary, the refining failed, and sometimes the seniors would be very excited and say 'this base material is good'."

I know, Yunxia Sect does too.Not only alchemy cultivators, but even our sword cultivators focus on learning to be beaten and dodged first. On the contrary, attack skills only become more important after the peak of Qi training.It seems that the basic course style of most monks is to think about failure before success.

But the point I want to say is: "Some failed and delicious pills, why don't you just eat them if you fail to refine them?"

Chu Wuliu: "For example, heat a hot pot in the alchemy stove?"

You did too.

1546_ The same kind is not reliable

Chu Wuliu: "Well, I see that my fellow disciples have done it before, but if I approach them, they will take those away and take out another pill furnace to start serious refining."

...It seems to have poked a sore spot.

Chu Wuliu: "What about you? When you encounter that kind of scene, what will the person who heats the hot pot do?"

"Second Master, what do you want to eat today?" "Let's go to the cafeteria to bring the chef, Second Master, which chef do you want today?" "Delicious meat, I will go to Hunting Peak to get it for you. Order vegetable pads."  …

Probably something like this.

They don't even remember to remind me: "Don't tell Elder Pei." Because this is normal in Yunxia Sect, it is not against the rules at all...

That's right, the point is not to violate the rules, and it's not wrong to use the alchemy furnace to scald hot pot in front of Elder Dan Xiufeng.The elders may also use the experience of those who have been there to give advice on how to use spiritual power to control the heat to make it more delicious.

I felt that I was not wronged, and replied: "I usually don't eat with them." Because it is easy to cause fights, and most of the disciples of Yunxiazong's cooking skills are actually not very good. I prefer the canteen.

Speaking of it, Xie Qinwei's cooking skills, at least the cooking skills of barbecue, are really good among his peers.Min Lun's barbecue is also very good... well, Shi Bolin's barbecue is also very good.

Ping Youping: "Has your instrument repairer ever made a magical instrument that can cook automatically?"

Me: "Isn't that a general-purpose magic weapon?"

Ping Youping: "It's not the generic one, it's a special one made according to your own taste, and you'll hide from the elders with the contents of the pot."

Me: "I did. Many of them were confiscated when they hit the muzzle of the gun." It's nothing to cook by yourself, but when the elders are teaching, they cook, cook, and fry the fryer. The fried food and pot fragments are still in the hands of the lecturer Demonstration hit...

The elders jumped at the case: If I don’t teach you a lesson, you little rascals are going to turn the world upside down.

Ping Youping: "Haha, so are we. Useful things can't help being used everywhere, and then something happens."

Reliable instrument repairers each have their own reliable methods, and unreliable instrument repairers can always get into the same predicament.

1547_ I have problems too

Ping Youping smiled for a while, and suddenly questioned me: "Aren't you a swordsman? How do you know what happened in the weapon repair class?"

... I've been around the Nine Peaks of Yunxia Sect, what's your opinion?When I was attending classes at Qixiu Peak, I did a lot of homework that should be done—whether I did it well or not is another matter.

Because my lectures are intermittent, and the foundation of instrumental repair is not solid except for theory, so the quality of my manual work is not good, but the elders who teach will still correct my homework, make sharp comments, and sometimes attach ridicule. Digging.

——Don't ask why ridicule and poaching can appear in the same sentence, anyway, they appear.

I felt that Chu Wuliu's expression was a bit melancholy, so I asked, "Do you really mind if your classmates don't eat with you?"

Chu Wuliu: "Shouldn't this kind of question not be asked, but just silently pity and comfort me?"

Don't make trouble, have you read too many stories in the mortal world? "You're a monk. And if you didn't kill yourself, you'd still be a Jindan monk." I said.

A monk's psychology is not that fragile, and there is no need for others to bother to protect his self-esteem.Accept the facts as they are, or change them instead of avoiding them.Escaping is never something a monk should have or condone.

Chu Wuliu: "I used to mind not eating together, but what bothered me later was that they knew that I would not sit down with them even if they invited me, but they still deliberately put on an attitude of repulsion."

Me: "Why are you so unpopular?"

Chu Wuliu: "Shouldn't you sympathize with me being rejected by the people?"

Me: "I think that if a person is bullied by most people, those bullies are certainly responsible for most of the mistakes, but the bullied person may also bear a small part of the responsibility, for example, too soft?"

Chu Wuliu: "For example, a criminal complaint."

I;"……"

Chu Wuliu: "I relied on my elders to pamper me. I used to sue people who made me unhappy whenever I didn't like it. From the brother who distributed the supplies missing something, to stabbing other people's small violations in private to the precepts. I never tell the person involved, I always report directly to the management department. Since what I report is what actually happened, so every report is accurate. I think I did a good job and maintained the order of the sect."

Me: "...It really can't be wrong." It just makes people want to cover you with a sack.It seems that what you, the bullied person, need to bear is not just a "small part of responsibility"?
