It was fine. After a minute, the gourd was still completely stuck on the table. Instead, the cinnabar talisman carved on it gradually disappeared and finally became immersed in the skin of the gourd and disappeared.

It seems that this green-skinned gourd is also unusual. No wonder the entire gourd vine was withered by the scissors magic weapon, but it was nothing wrong. For no reason, I remembered that local cloth bag again, it would not be guarding next to the gourd vine.

This thought flashed through my mind, and then I began to worry about the green-skinned gourd again.

The spirit gathering magic weapon has been refined, but what should I use it to install?

After thinking about it, I had nothing to put on. Finally, I scooped a scoop of cold water from the bucket and poured it in, and then put it at home, planning to come back next week to see what changes were going on.

Because I was busy refining magic weapons, I arrived at school late in the afternoon.

What I didn't expect was that Ma Yanli and the other two were sitting in the classroom, and many classmates were around them watching and asking questions.

The three people obviously did not want to be watched and kept urging others to leave.

After saying it several times, Ma Yanli finally became anxious and shouted angrily: "If you want to know what's going on, you go and invite the Bixian yourself. If anyone doesn't know how to invite it, I will teach you for free."

When she got louder, no one dared to ask any more. But when she returned to her seat, many people were still whispering: "What's so great? Isn't it just being possessed by a ghost?"

When I heard this, I smiled bitterly. There are some things that I can’t be curious about.

In fact, I know a little about Ma Yanli and the other two. For them, the matter of asking for a pen fairy is a painful memory, so I naturally don’t want to be mentioned repeatedly.

The matter was resolved, and the school gradually calmed down in the following days.

Of course, Principal Zhao's position is still as stable as Mount Tai. Speaking of which, I have a little credit to it.

In fact, the matter was not completely over. The school then held another speech contest, with the theme of "advocating science and staying away from superstition."

But this has nothing to do with me. As long as I don’t require participation in school activities, I always hide if I can.

Practice Taoism, practice kung fu, and class... My days became dull again until the school had a Qingming Festival holiday. The Qingming Festival happened to be Saturday. Including Sunday, the school had a total of two days off.

When I got home in the afternoon, I couldn't wait to open the gourd. Suddenly, a stream of water vapor penetrated into my nostrils, making people shocked.

The water is still cold, but it is different. I can feel that there is a faint breath emitting inside. This breath is different from the vitality of heaven and earth, and it is similar to the liquid in Grandma Guo's porcelain bottle.

The magic weapon I refined is the spirit-gathering gourd. Could this be spiritual energy?

I suddenly remembered two sentences in the Taoist sect: "Heaven and earth are formed by vitality, and all things are formed by heaven and earth", and "all things have spirits and energy."

These two sentences point out the difference between vital energy and spiritual energy: vital energy is the most original thing in the world, while spiritual energy is the growth of all things. From this perspective, vital energy is the innate energy, and spiritual energy belongs to acquired energy.

Understanding this truth, I suddenly realized that my previous cognition was very wrong. The magic weapon of scissors absorbed the aura contained in cultural relics is not the essence of heaven and earth, but spiritual energy, and the same is true in the gourd vine.

The air flow that I sucked into my body in meditation was the essence of heaven and earth. At that time, I didn’t understand the Taoist sect deeply, and the two auras were similar, so I confused them.

But for me, there is no difference between vital energy and spiritual energy, as long as it can be absorbed by scissors and magic weapons.

Thinking of this, my spiritual sense extended and I put my hands on the spirit-gathering gourd again, hoping that the scissors magic weapon would absorb the spiritual energy contained in it.

Well...why didn't there be any response?

Something surprised me happened, and the scissors magic weapon in my mind did not react at all.

Could it be that spiritual energy is divided into categories? The Taoist sect says: "All things have spirits and all have energy." Different things, the spiritual energy they contain is naturally different.

I felt that my idea was unreliable, so I turned my attention back to the spirit gathering gourd. When my spiritual sense sensed the spiritual energy contained in the liquid again, I suddenly realized: like those cultural relics have been around for many years, and the spiritual energy contained in them is rich, so they are absorbed by the scissor magic weapon. The liquid in this spirit gathering tool has only been one week, and the spiritual energy is too thin, so the scissor magic weapon is disdainful.

Although the scissors magic weapon does not absorb it, I am very interested in the liquid inside and want to know how it works.

Why don’t you do an experiment with the flowers and plants in the yard first... I put the flat gourd mouth and sprinkled it casually in the yard, pouring out more than half of the liquid inside.

Then I stared at the land for two hours, and my calves were a little numb and there was no effect. I just used my spiritual sense to sense that the spiritual energy contained in the liquid gradually penetrated into the ground.

Seeing that it was getting dark, I went back to the house to cook in disappointment. As usual, Ah Huang went to the river beach outside the village to catch a pheasant, and stewed chicken with vegetables to eat at night.

After completing the practice, I went to bed without dreams all night.

Without class, I naturally slept late and waited until the sun rose before I got up.

I went out to brush my teeth while yawning. As soon as I walked into the yard, I stopped and stared at the scene in front of me.

Where the liquid was poured yesterday, grass grew in large areas, and the tender leaves were green and yellow, obviously they just grew last night.

The biggest change is the crooked peach tree with a crooked neck in the corner of the courtyard. The heart of the tree is full of insects. Last year, it was half dead and not even a few peaches were born. Yesterday I fell to the roots a few times, but I never thought that overnight, the branches of the peach tree were covered with buds, layered and heavy. From a distance, it looked like fire and clouds, which was very gratifying.

If a girl stands under a peach tree, she can be described as "the human face and peach blossoms are red in color". When she thinks of "the human face and peach blossoms", Lin Qingqing can't help but appear in my mind. It would be great if she stood here.

It turns out that this liquid is of great use. It is extremely magical to make the plants in the yard change in such a way in one night.

Various fragrances of flowers mixed together and penetrated into my nostrils. I couldn't help but sneeze and my head woke up.

Then, take a deep breath and practice Baguazhang walking stance under the peach blossoms all over the trees.

The Book of Changes says: "There is Tai Chi in Yi, which produces two qualities, two qualities give birth to four images, and four images give birth to eight trigrams."

The steps of Baguazhang are derived from the "Book of Changes" and belong to the Taoist category. As a practitioner of Taoism, I naturally feel more deeply when I practice it. The longer I practice it, the more I feel that this step is exquisite and contains great principles.

Just like the pace that Grandma Guo walked when she invited the gods, the Bagua Zhang stake has an indescribable charm, which can inspire the vital energy of heaven and earth around her. No, it should be spiritual energy.

After practicing the stake, I felt empty. I went to the kitchen to cook three packs of instant noodles, ate them voraciously, and then read them with "Daozang".

When practicing Taoism, you must start with the baby. If you don’t work hard when you are young, you will be sad if you are old.

After turning two pages, I felt that someone came over outside the yard. I used my spiritual sense to find out that it was Su Junjie. He rushed into the yard excitedly: "Su Hao, you're at home. Let's wait and go out to buy a game console. I've saved enough money... Oh, isn't your peach tree dead? Why is it blooming again? So many, it's so fragrant..."

The game console he mentioned is a plastic toy that is the size of a palm. After installing the battery, you can play Tetris. It was very popular in schools during this period.

Su Junjie had wanted to buy it for a long time, but unfortunately his mother didn't give it to him at all. He could only save money from the food expenses. After a week, the money was enough.

"Junjie, I won't go. I have to review my homework at home in the morning." I refused.

"Oh." Su Junjie's face clearly showed a look of disappointment. He did not persuade me anymore. When he walked to the door, he said, "Then I'll look for Yutao."

Me, Su Junjie, Su Yutao, three of them were able to wear a pair of pants when they were young. Now as we grow older, we are getting farther and farther away, and we have secrets between each other. It should be that I gradually alienated them, which caused such consequences.

This is the price that needs to be paid for practicing Taoism? What the master once said appeared in my mind again: "Human nature dies, Taoism lives! Love dies, Taoism love lives!"

Will I really be like this in the future?... Instinctive feeling, this is a very scary thing.

No, I don’t want this. I can practice Taoism at any time, but it’s hard to have it if my friend loses it! After thinking it through, I shouted at Su Junjie who had already walked outside the door: “Wait for me, I’ll go out the streets too!”

"Really?" Su Junjie ran back immediately after hearing the sound.

"Of course, we are good buddies." I nodded with a smile.

"Yes, good guy!" He pounded my shoulder.

We went to Su Yutao's house to call him, and the three of us rode our bicycles to the market in Liaoyang Town.

Su Yutao's family had relatives on the street. We stored the bicycles at his relative's house and then wandered around the street.

The first stop was Xinhua Bookstore. Su Junjie paid for the long-awaited game console, and Yu Tao bought the "English-Chinese Dictionary". I walked around it and finally held a unique shell boat in my hand.

This is a birthday gift I bought for Lin Qingqing. She had notified me a few days ago to celebrate her birthday next week.

Throughout the morning, I didn't think about anything about practicing Taoism. I was like a boy who was only twelve or thirteen years old - having fun happily.

This chapter is updated yesterday, and today's update is also calculated. It's very depressing. I kept reminding myself in my mind that the update speed will be faster! But it really can't be written quickly. Looking up information and thinking about the plot, I can't even reach a thousand words in an hour.

Well, the same old saying is still the same, I hope everyone will collect and recommend it to support it. The new book period needs support too much!!
