Daoist, stay safe

Zhang Xiyan woke up and found that she was lying on the bed.Her parents have come, her clothes have been changed into autumn clothes, the temperature in the room has dropped to about ten degrees, and the sky outside is not the morning when she just finished taking the medicinal bath, but the evening, which is obviously a long time since she took the medicinal bath .

She immediately understood that it was a mistake in the medicine bath.

She was able to wake up, her parents were watching over her, and they looked pretty good, so she should be fine, but the medicinal bath was made by Sangu's milk, and the intention was for her own good, so it is impossible to go to Sangu's grandma to settle accounts , accepted the facts calmly.

She didn't ask how long she slept, nor did she ask if Liu Yu had left.She had been asleep for so long, there was no smell of Liu Yu in the room, and Liu Yu didn't have that much time to spend here with her, so she left early.Although Liu Yu likes her a little bit, who she likes is just a matter of emotion, which is an adjustment to life, and it is impossible to ignore the problems of work, career, food and survival just because she likes someone.Like does not mean important, like or dislike is often not important.If you don't like customers, you have to deal with customers in order to earn a living and survive. In the same way, you don't necessarily need to do anything or even communicate with someone you like.There is someone who values ​​feelings very much and puts feelings and lovers first in life, but that person will definitely not be Liu Yu.

Zhang Xiyan wanted to get up, only to realize that she was weak all over, and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Zhang Changshou said: "The deficiencies are not supplemented, and the medicine properties conflict with the constitution, so I fell ill."

Illness comes like a mountain down, sickness goes like a thread.

It took Zhang Xiyan nearly a week of recuperation before she was able to walk around the ground, but her whole body seemed limp as if all her strength had been taken away, her Qi Sea was empty as if her cultivation had been abolished, and even the Flower God Gu quietly curled up into a ball the size of a thumb, dying look like.

She didn't ask herself if she was ruined by the barrel of medicinal bath.If her cultivation is really abolished, she can continue to be an ordinary person, an office worker living a peaceful life.She didn't want to live that kind of life with today and no tomorrow, and she didn't want to suffer pain every day, and she didn't want to get up at three o'clock every day to practice exercises.

When her father asked her whether she would specialize in Gu art or dual cultivation of Dao and Gu, she told her father without hesitation, "I want to be an ordinary person, just like before."

Zhang Changshou said: "Now your heartbeat and body functions are all maintained by the Flower God Gu. Removing the Gu means cutting off your vitality. If you don't like being a Taoist priest and want to be an ordinary office worker, you have to consider being able to Can't support myself and the Flower God Gu."

Zhang Xiyan was silent.

If she quits this high-risk job at home, she will lose her salary and benefits. According to her previous salary, she will not even have enough money to buy poisonous insects. she.

Even if she finds a high-paying job and earns enough money, many of the things she needs are not sold in the market, and she has to rely on her family, but she does not work for the family, and of course the family will not support her as an idler.

She has to practice Gu skills to find an ordinary job, otherwise the result waiting for her is bound to be backlash.

Why bother?

No matter what, she is a part-time job. Although her family is a high-risk occupation, she is guaranteed for life. The boss is an immediate family member. She has nothing to do with a little temper and a little emotion. medicine.She is also one of the CEO candidates, and at worst she can get a job as the general manager of a company. She is not afraid of being fired and has no mid-life crisis. The older the senior, the higher the salary.

Zhang Xiyan figured it out, and said, "You pretend I didn't say that sentence just now."

Gu nature is yin and evil, and it is difficult to look like a normal person in the end of practice. Usually, it looks like three parts of a human and seven parts of a ghost, and the worse ones are more like ghosts than ghosts.She still wanted to go out to meet people, so she said without hesitation, "Double cultivation of Dao and Gu."

Zhang Changshou nodded, and said: "Since you choose to practice both Dao and Gu, you must maintain the balance of yin, yang, and five elements in your body. Your current physique is too yin and cold, with strong cathodes and weak anodes. If you practice rashly without proper conditioning, your life will be in danger. Medicinal diet to maintain health, meditate every morning and evening to raise Qi, you should take care of it for a month or two to see the situation."

Zhang Xiyan nodded in response.

Zhang Changshou said: "Your third aunt has something to ask you, go."

Zhang Xiyan went to the door of the third aunt's room, and the third aunt was putting small boxes in a box, as if sorting out the sundries.She knocked lightly on the door and called out, "Grandma Sangu."

Grandma Sangu said, "Come in." She closed the box, turned around and sat down by the table, pointed to the chair, and said, "Sit." After Zhang Xiyan sat down, she said, "I'm going to the dark cell to be locked up in the prison for life and death. If I can't get out, you can bury this box and set up a clothes tomb for me. The bones are gone, so there is no need to bury the ancestral mausoleum."

Zhang Xiyan felt it suddenly and was very surprised.She was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses, and she didn't know what to say, so she nodded lightly, responded, and said, "I see. Where are your clothes?"

"Just look at the place to pick." The third aunt took a deep look at Zhang Xiyan, and said slowly: "Your elder brother never passed the Ten Thousand Coffin Formation back then, your second elder brother never even passed the Nine Star Pass, and Zhang Xiaolin passed the Ten Thousand Coffin Formation. The coffin formation is trapped at the gate of the Nine Palaces. Your third sister and fourth elder brother passed the examinations for leaving the school so thrillingly that they don’t even know where the gate of the ancestral mausoleum is. There are only three gates, one is Zhang Yishan from the incense shop in the town, the other is Zhang Yizong who has gone abroad, and the third is Zhang Xiaoyue, who is still in his third year of junior year. The only one who is still alive and has successfully broken through eighteen levels to enter the top floor of the library is Your great grandfather, me, your father, you."

Zhang Xiyan said in his heart: Is this going to make me the head of the house?

She is aware of her own weight, and now she is in charge of the house, and she can't take care of the things that the third aunt is in charge of, and she can't handle it.As for breaking through the [-]th level over there, it's not her skill either.She said: "I didn't go through eighteen levels in a row. You told me the location of the library building. I walked through the levels and arrived. The way to pass each level is taught at home. Every position in the Ten Thousand Coffin Formation is a A separate formation, these formations are interlocking to form the Ten Thousand Coffin Formation, and each formation has a corresponding formula and method of operation, which are recorded in the formation books in the study next door."

"Jiuxingguan, Jiugongge with Bagua array, 81 bricks correspond to 81 hexagram positions, calculate the nine correct bricks, and then play a shifting puzzle game to solve it, and then there will be a ten-meter-long passage, Puzzle 3 Minutes later, the reset channel will be closed. Below the channel is the Knife Array Gu Pit. If you fall down, you will die. Therefore, there is a 3-minute time to pass. It doesn’t matter if you fail, and you can try again. There is a standing plum blossom pile in the middle of the Knife Array Gu Pit. The upgraded version of the plum blossom pile that I passed through the mud pit is actually just 45 more piles to confuse the view. The wrong pile is equipped with a deadly mechanism, and it is dangerous to step on the wrong one. The correct nine pillars, its distance and height It is exactly the same as the post I stepped on when I ran through the mud puddle every morning, and I can recognize it at a glance."

"The 'Zongye Inheritance' plaque hanging in the middle of our family study hall has dark patterns. The topography of the ancestral tomb is exactly the same as the dark pattern on the plaque. Not only the location of the gate of the ancestral tomb, but also the prominent landmarks. It is clearly marked. Zongye Inheritance has four large characters and a map, so it is easy to find."

"Twelve tomb-suppressing generals pass, twelve voodoo corpses. The "Zombie Treasure" my father gave me vividly depicts these [-] tomb-suppressing generals. It clearly shows what kind of zombies to use. Talismans, you know I'm afraid of those things, and when I see the talisman within reach, I'll get it on their faces." She told the so-called Eighteen Levels mentioned by Grandma Sangu, which corresponding book or I pointed out the solutions where I saw them one by one. "I don't think it's appropriate for you to use such an easy thing to choose a family member."

The third aunt glanced at her lightly, and said: "I think it's appropriate. Don't say anything else, let me ask, how many people have carefully looked at the plaque for the inheritance of the clan all day long? Tell them that the inheritance of the clan is on this plaque Now, how many people have taken it seriously? How many people have seriously studied the mountainous terrain on the ground of the ancestral mausoleum?"

Zhang Xiyan: I was distracted in class to read the cards, and I went hiking and jogging to see the scenery, okay?

The third aunt was too lazy to listen to her talk, and said: "These things at home are the ancestral mausoleum, the black prison and the library, and then the medicinal workshops in the village and some industries outside. They can't pass the test. The ancestral mausoleum, the black prison and the library The library is wide open to them there, and they can't get the contents. You can reach the top floor of the library all the way, and you know the ancestral mausoleum like the back of your hand. You can use whatever you want, and they can only count on you in critical times. You They will naturally listen to what they say.”

The other side explained some trivial things, and gave Zhang Xiyan some magical artifacts, pearls and jade jewelry she saved and other things that were no longer needed.

Although Zhang Xiyan disliked that the third aunt looked like a ghost, but she lived in the old house for three years, and the third aunt took care of her for three years and taught her for three years. It can be said that her skills were taught by the third aunt, and now she confesses her will. Life and death are unpredictable, making Zhang Xiyan feel extremely uncomfortable.

She said, "I'll keep the things for you, and I'll return them to you when you come out."

The third aunt pointed to the things to be put in the tomb, and said, "Everything I want to keep is there."

Zhang Xiyan nodded again.

Sangu's grandma transferred the savings in the account, the private property under her name, and the family property under her name to Zhang Changshou's name, and then went to the black prison to be locked up for life and death.

Zhang Changshou became the head of the family and stayed in the old house.

Zhang Xiyan stayed with her as a patient who was still being taken care of by her parents.

Apart from taking medicine, meditating to keep healthy and helping her father with some chores in the clan, she just thinks about cultivation.

Many of her family's ancestors are Taoist and Gu dual cultivators, and they have left a lot of references, which provided a lot of cultivation ideas and methods. Based on the cultivation methods of the ancestors and the Witch God's Collection, she figured out a cultivation method that is suitable for her.

Whether it's the Taoist practice method or the witch god's book, the more you understand it, the more you ponder it, the more profound it becomes. When Zhang Xiyan touches the method, it's like opening the door to a new world, and the cultivation is...a bit addictive.

After she took good care of her body and practiced Gu, she obviously felt that the Flower God Gu became active, and she was no longer as lifeless as before, and her physical fitness was also improving rapidly, the symptoms of qi deficiency and fatigue disappeared, and she was full of energy every day.

Her five senses are more acute, and she can even clearly perceive the "Qi" between heaven and earth.It was a very mysterious feeling, as if there was "Qi" in everything, surging like a stream of air all the time.She guides and uses this energy, even if she just performs a set of health-preserving Taijiquan, she can induce a sense of energy, and every move and style, the punches and palms she punches are extremely powerful.

Zhang Xiyan has found the joy of cultivation, and she doesn't feel that the life in the old house is sad, but now, except for the third aunt who lives and dies in the old house, who lives in a black prison for free, from her father to Zhang Xitang, Zhang Ximing to her, a All of them are big spenders, all kinds of medicinal materials and supplements are consumed like running water. If you just grab a handful from the medicinal herb pot, it will be money. It will be boiled into juice, then soaked in it, and it will be gone.Occasionally, it is necessary to open the Laojun stove in the kitchen to make alchemy. It is really more expensive than opening a furnace of elixir for the whole family to soak in a medicinal bath for a month.

Zhang Xiyan can be considered to have experienced what it means to be in charge of a family without knowing how expensive it is.

The third aunt's words are so clear, this family will be run by her sooner or later.Her father is already 60 years old. As he gets older, his body functions begin to degrade, and he has to practice again. Not only does he have to rely on medicinal materials and supplements to nourish him, but he also needs to take good care of him. She wants her father to live longer, so she shouldn't let him support the family anymore. toil.

The end of the year is approaching, it is the busiest time of the year, and it is also the time when business is good.

Zhang Xiyan didn't want to let go of the opportunity to make money, so she packed her luggage, carried the sword on her back, and went down the mountain.

She passed by Zhang Yishan's incense shop and met Liu Yu.

Liu Yu was talking to Zhang Yishan when she suddenly turned around, then stopped, then smiled, and said, "Hey, Daoist Zhang, he has recovered from his illness and is willing to go down the mountain?" She said angrily, "We both share joys and sorrows together. If you are in trouble, just throw back what I gave you, you have a heart of stone."

Zhang Xiyan:?What the hell?

Liu Yu said: "I sent you an email, did you reply to me? I sent you a message, did you reply to me? All the things I sent you were rejected and returned. When you recover, please reply to me." Is it very difficult for Uncle Tuoyishan to tell me the news?"

Zhang Xiyan:?Her old house has no mobile phone signal. As for WIFI, Sangu’s grandma has set MAC address restrictions.Liu Yu gave her things, but she didn't get paid for nothing. It must be the third aunt or her father who helped her return it.Moreover, Liu Yu confiscated one of the books she gave Liu Yu.Liu Yu doesn't take her things, why should she take Liu Yu's things?Something is wrong!She glanced at Liu Yu indifferently, didn't bother to pay attention to her, and said to Zhang Yishan: "Uncle Yishan, I'm going down the mountain, if you need anything in the future, please call."

Zhang Yishan responded immediately, "Success, I will listen to you later." He added: "After Liu Yu came out of the old house, she waited for you at my place for half a month, sending you things and making phone calls. ...Hey, I am busy, you guys talk..."

Zhang Xiyan said: "It's the end of the year and there are many things to do, so I'll be leaving first." Without even looking at Liu Yu, she turned around and hailed a passing car, got in the car, and left.

Liu Yu was so angry that she gritted her teeth, and after saying goodbye to Zhang Yishan politely, she turned cold when she returned to the car, and angrily followed behind the car where Zhang Xiyan was sitting.

She was crazy to worry about whether Zhang Xiyan was still sick or if it would be serious, but in the end, this guy was alive and kicking, and his complexion was really good, and he didn't even have a good face when he saw her.She didn't owe her anything!
