Woniu Mountain, home.

After a hearty supper.

Han Shi went to wash dishes and clean.

Su Mu was bathing in the yard, increasing his energy while bathing in the moonlight; while reading "Shangqing Baolu".

Dim light?

This is not afraid of it. The brightness of the home [torch] is comparable to the big light bulb on the earth.

Let me say: "The Book of Shangqing Baolu" is not too difficult to understand because of Zhuang Er's annotations and practice experience.

Su Mu read the whole article and began his first practice according to the above method and combined with the breathing method.

I don’t know if this Qi Refining Method is simple; or if it is his special physique.

Not long.

Su Mu felt a faint sense of energy.

There is also an additional column in the sub-column of Home: [True Qi: 0.001.].

and.

Every time Sumu is activated, the true energy will be increased by 0.001.

This kind of feeling of gain can be seen with one's efforts, which makes him enjoy it and soon becomes immersed in it.

Wait until Han Shi takes care of the kitchen and come out.

Immediately.

He saw a strange scene: in the yard, the torches were bright, the moonlight was like frost, and around Sumu, the hazy moonlight floated, like water waves rippling slightly, absorbed into the body.

"Young Master, I am a true immortal!"

Han Shi sighed in his heart, slowed down, tried not to make any noise, and quietly returned to his wooden house.

...

In about a quarter of an hour, you can use the Qi-refining method of "Shangqing Baolu" for one week to obtain 0.001 true qi.

Time passes.

Soon, one night passed and dawn was dawn.

Sumu opened his eyes.

【True Qi: 0.037.】

Although he looked very few and there was nothing magical at the moment, he was not discouraged. After all, he still needed to accumulate if he had "entered the Tao".

Not sleeping all night.

Not only did Su Mu not feel tired, but instead was full of energy. However, his stomach was very hungry and had not moved for a long time, his blood flowed poorly, causing numbness all over his body.

He ate four or five fruits from his home in a row to make it easier.

At this time, Han Shi had already gotten up and stretched his waist wide: "Young master, it's so good!"

"morning."

Su Mu nodded: "I'll leave today's breakfast to you."

"Why!"

Han Shi agreed to cook porridge. Then, he couldn't rest, cut some firewood and harvested the fruits from the fruit trees.

Su Mu did not practice again, did a health exercise, fed two white cranes, and took care of the garden.

In the fields, the seeds planted yesterday have turned green today. Some saplings have grown to about one foot high, and many have bloomed.

Red, yellow, purple, pink... all kinds of flowers compete for beauty and fragrance.

In this environment, the two of them had breakfast and dug some stones to the gravel.

It's about 7:30.

Su Mu and Han Shi rode down the mountain on the [Mu Niu Shuhe] and headed towards Xining City.

...

Not far from the city gate.

Su Mu and Han Shi met an acquaintance: Master Zhuang Er’s apprentice.

At this time, the four of them were riding in a ox cart, as if they were about to leave Xining City.

"Fellow Daoist Su."

Zhuang Er took the lead this time to say hello: "Thank you for your life to the young disciple."

The words have not ended.

Zhongziya, a black-faced man, jumped off the ox cart, knelt down, and gave a big gift to Sumu.

Zhong Ziqi was on the side and explained with a smile: "Last night, the killer of the 'Shadow Thorn' came to assassinate us... Junior Brother Ziya accidentally got a strange poison. Thanks to the [Niu Yulu] given to fellow Taoist, he was able to survive the death disaster."

"Just a small matter, you can't take such a big gift, please get up quickly."

Su Mu jumped off the cow's back and helped Zhongziya up.

Immediately.

He asked again, "Are you four going to leave?"

"good."

Zhongziqi knew that his master was not good at speaking, so he answered on his behalf: "We planned to stay in Xining for several days and take a break. If we didn't think about what happened last night, we wouldn't be ready to stay longer, so as not to let that guy Monto continue to worry about it."

"This is thanks to the money given to fellow Taoists. Otherwise, we would not be able to do it if we wanted to leave so quickly."

"Just give me some gifts, the "Shangqing Baolu" given to you by Master is also of great use to me."

Su Mu waved his hand and said, "The four people were assassinated and the enemy has not succeeded. It is likely that they will not give up... If what I guess is right, the four people will most likely not be calm for the next journey."

"but,"

He said this, smiled and pointed at his 'muniu' and said, "If there is such a thing, it may save you some trouble for the four of you."

But he said: The four masters and apprentices of Zhuang Er had long noticed this strange "wooden cow" and "Trojan horse". They were quite curious, but they never found the opportunity to ask.

At this time, when he heard Su Mu's initiative introduction, he was intrigued.

"What a clever carving, at first glance, it almost fades to the real one."

"Yes, I can still walk on my own."

“I don’t know how it was done?”

...

Even Zhuang Er looked at it carefully and asked in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Su, is this a mechanism skill?"

"That's right!"

Su Mu said: "This thing is called 'wooden ox and flowing horse'. It does not require forage. Camels carry things, crossing mountains and ridges, like walking on flat ground. If a fellow Taoist can control it, I will send one to help the four people in one journey."

"This thing is precious and cannot be easily accepted." Zhuang Er shook his head.

"If it's normal, I can't bear to leave it, but the four fellow Taoists are just in need, so I'm not helping the poor!"

Su Mu said this and paused and smiled, "This thing is exquisite and most people can't control it. If the four people cannot control it, then I can't. I can't even send it out even if I want to... The four fellow Taoists can try it and just do it for me."

Han Shi listened from behind and looked at Zhuang Er and the other four with interest: He couldn't do it, I wonder if they could control this "wooden cow"?

"I'll do it first!"

Zhongzi opened his mouth with a sound of urn.

The big man came to the "Mu Niu" and knocked and circled around it. He was so anxious that he scratched his head, but he could not do anything about it.

Even in the end, he was so anxious that he almost left with the "muniu".

Afterwards, Zhongziran and Zhongziya tried one by one, but they could not make the "muniu" move. Even if Su Mu told them that they needed to use their mind to control the core of the "muniu" head, they could not do it.

at last.

Zhuang Er stepped forward, reached out and slapped the head of the "Mu Niu" and it began to move.

"Fellow Daoist can actually control it! How did this be done?"

Su Mu was surprised.

In his perception: Zhuang Er is also the core of linking the "Mu Niu".

——Of course, the highest authority of the creation of the homeland is in Sumu. As long as he is willing, he can forcibly deprive him of control with just one thought.

"The soul is in harmony." Zhuang Er's answer was as simple as ever.

Su Mu was puzzled and looked at his own translation - Zhongziqi.

"Fellow Taoist, that's it."
