247、Heat

After walking past the twenty-fifth statue, there was a stone niche beside the mountain wall. There was an irregular stone pillar two feet square and more than one person tall standing in the stone niche. Cui Shanhai introduced with some shame: "This is a statue I carved for my master. I have always felt that my practice has not been completed, so it has not been completed yet."

Tan Hanchuan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, take your time. No one can fool yourself. You must seek diligence in your practice, but you can never force yourself."

Many stone niches and connected corridors were dug here using the natural terrain, and they could even name them Xiangshui Peak Grottoes. They walked to the deepest part of the front of the cliff, where there was a semicircular open hall, and in the middle was an altar. There were no statues on the altar, and a few big characters were engraved on the natural mountain rock behind them - the position of Hua Xu, the ancestor of Yanhuang.

Huaxu family is indeed respected as the ancestor of Yanhuang. Until now, China's national name is still "Hua". People of all ethnic groups from Yanhuang are called Chinese, and this Hua is the Huaxu family's Huaxu family.

Just now, everyone just followed Cui Shanhai to bow to the statues of the ancestors of Xiangshui Peak to show their respect. At this moment, Zhuang Mengzhou took the initiative to step forward and bowed to the position of Huaxu. Everyone also bowed and bowed to the great ceremony. There were also incense burners and incense sticks on the divine table. After bowing, everyone burned incense in turn.

The incense burner is a gilded copper furnace from the Ming Dynasty. It is extremely exquisite. Shi Buquan looked at it several times. After bowing and burning the incense, Shang Ni muttered in a low voice: "Mr. Zhuang was right just now. Hikers can also become pilgrims. We have all burned incense."

Walking through the stone niche in the middle, a stone chamber was dug from the mountain wall on the other side. The stone walls were chiseled outdoors to form a small courtyard, and the mountain springs were drawn into three pools of water. The room behind was hollowed out to form the mountain. The distribution of these stone chambers was very irregular, and it was obviously a natural cave to save engineering volume.

Cui Shanhai introduced: "This is the place where the masters and descendants of Xiangshui Peak practice in the past dynasties. In ancient times, especially in the Song Dynasty, nearly a hundred people lived here, but after the Ming Dynasty, fewer and fewer people lived outside the world for a long time. Now we do not live here for a long time. Just as Mr. Zhuang told the story, this Xiangshui Peak is like the Tiewa Temple. We only come to stay for a few days occasionally.

Since modern times, there are not many ancient relics here. You can visit them at will, rest and have dinner... Master Ding, can you speak while you are free? I would like to ask for advice in private?"

Ding Qi: "Okay, find a place to sit."

Cui Shanhai led Ding Qi to a stone chamber, where there were stone couches, stone tables, stone benches, stone chairs, and stone screens, which could not be moved or moved, because they were directly chiseled out of the whole mountain rock. The moving furnishings in the house were a wooden cabinet and a tea tray on the stone table.

Cui Shanhai took out the tea leaves from the cabinet and put them in two cups. He took a kettle and went to the outside spring pool to pick up a pot of water. After sitting down, he held the kettle handle in the air and closed his eyes and focused. He didn't know what he was doing. Dante Qi could see that he was using his skills to cast spells, so he waited quietly without disturbing him.

After a while, a heat actually came out of his little eyes on the lid of the pot, and then a gurgling sound came from the pot. When the sound of water gradually diminished, the water boiled out of thin air. Cui Shanhai opened his eyes and said, "I'm so ugly, please use tea!" As he said that, he made tea for Ding Qi.

Ding Qi slapped his thigh and said, "Hey, you are boiling water! Why do you have to be so troublesome? Isn't it okay to make a fire? If we think it's troublesome to make a fire, we also brought camping heater and a simple self-heating hotpot..."

Cui Shanhai: "There are these things?"

Ding Qi: "A must-have outdoor suit for hikers. You don't have to make open fires in the mountains and forests. You can buy them online now."

Cui Shanhai: "What's the matter with a small hot pot? There is no need to make a fire or soak it in boiling water?"

Ding Qi: "You haven't heard of the internet celebrity hotpot? It's just that a small box is stuck on the big box, and everything you eat is placed in the small box. There is a sealed plastic bag with a non-woven bag, take out the non-woven bag and put it in the big box, add some cold water, automatically heat it up and boil the water, steam the things in the small box above, and can continue to steam and cook for fifteen minutes."

Cui Shanhai: "It's so creative. Now, as long as there is a demand, you can provide any product."

Ding Qi: "By the way, Gong Cui, you are engaged in scientific research. I would like to ask for advice. What are the principles and what materials are used to process them?"

Cui Shanhai smiled: "Although I don't know how the specific product is made, I also know that there are many theoretical implementation methods and the principles are not complicated. For example, there are plasters sold in pharmacies now with automatic heat compresses. Whether it is literature, science, or middle schools, they should have studied chemistry. I will give you a few simplest examples.

First of all, let’s talk about the more dangerous one. The violent reaction of metal sodium in water will release a lot of heat energy. Let’s talk about the most common one. Have you heard of quicklime? As for other substances that will heat up during water reaction or water dissolution, there are too many…”

Ding Qi: "After you said this, I remembered it all. The principle is indeed not complicated, but it can be processed into a safe and simple camping product, which is creativity. I also want to ask, you boil the water with a pot. Where does the energy come from?"

Cui Shanhai: "The cultivation level of Master Ding should also feel it? The secret method we practice, which the ancients called magical powers, is actually a way of transforming and using energy..."

Ding Qi: "I haven't thought about these things in particular. Today I'm better to read ten years of reading! No, no, it should be said that it's better to practice ten years of hard work... Come and have tea!"

Cui Shanhai: "School Master Ding is too modest. Your cultivation is much better than mine!"

Ding Qi: "No, no, no, you must not say that. I have never practiced the skill of boiling water just now, and I feel inferior to you!"

According to Mr. Zhuang and others' evaluation, the secret method of the secret practice of Ding Qi is to directly cultivate the mind and nature without asking about the other methods. The so-called magic power is also available, but it is only used to explore and discover the unknowns of the world on weekdays. Ding Qi did not "study" the various magical powers described in many novels, and his purpose is not this.

Cui Shanhai just showed his skills and boiled a pot of water out of thin air. This was already a very amazing skill. Does Tan Hanchuan, who also practiced the fire gate furnace and cauldron technique, have this ability, probably, but he has never shown it. Except for Shi Buquan, the experts around Ding Qi, who loves all kinds of unique skills, do not like to show off all kinds of skills.

This may be because after staying with Ding Qi for a long time, following him to practice secret techniques outside the world, he was also affected by Ding Qi's mood. What's more, it may be that these unique skills of the descendants of the eight sects of the world were never used to show off.

With Ding Qi's current cultivation and magic power, if you think about it carefully, you might be able to figure it out. However, Ding Qi's energy has never been used to boil water, because it can be achieved through other simpler means.

After taking a sip of tea, Cui Shanhai reacted and said, "Oh, I have something to ask Master Ding, why did he talk about the internet celebrity hotpot?"

Ding Qi: "Sorry, I've just taken the topic apart. Please tell me if I have something to say." When I was speaking, I thought to myself that maybe I had been in contact with Mr. Zhuang for a long time, and I was unconsciously brought up a problem, that is, when I chat, I always like to go off the topic.

Cui Shanhai: "The information flow you just transmitted directly to my consciousness should be the legendary divine thought, right?"

Ding Qi: "It is indeed a divine idea to be a good person when Cui Gong is really good at pronunciation."

Cui Shanhai sighed: "I finally saw it today! But I still have a question. You have never drunk Zhujie wine. Although I introduced Zhujie wine in the confidential information in Xiangshui Peak, I did not say it too specifically. For my descendants of Xiangshui Peak, bamboo wine is a spiritual medicine that assists in the cultivation of visualization. This is the secret of the passage. How did you know?"

Ding Qi replied: "Just do a little deduction. You have given me enough information to be able to draw this conclusion."

When he spoke, he sent a divine thought, introducing his deduction and judgment process. The most important conclusion he came to based on various information was that bamboo liquor can allow ordinary people to have beautiful dreams, and see what they want in their dreams, or that is not a real dream, but just a hallucination effect left by bamboo liquor after resolving the toxicity of the dream flower.

This is true for ordinary people, but for the descendants of Xiangshui Peak, it is a means to assist in the practice of visualization. If ordinary people recall a specific character image decades ago, it is definitely impossible to present it completely in detail. This requires spiritual concentration in the state of concentration and stimulate specific subconscious information, such as seeing the master in front of you.

As for whether the master you see is an absolutely accurate reappearance of the true image, it may not be necessary. It is the master you recognize in the deep subconscious mind of the visualist, and you can even visualize all the details - as long as you think about it.

In Ding Qi's view, the effect of bamboo wine can create an effect similar to the false realm. Of course, it cannot be a true false realm. There are still essential differences.

The false realm is a kind of opportunity for diligence after the five realms of practice. The false realm is different from the dream, and it is also different from the psychedelic experience or visual experience created by Zhujiejiu. For those who are in it, everything they experience is no different from the truth, sometimes they are unaware of it themselves, and they will consume their lifespan.

Bamboo wine can make people dream about the dreams they want. If you keep the soul clear and focused on the things you are visualizing, it is also a kind of spiritual medicine that assists in cultivation. It can help refine the spirit and may hurt the spirit. It depends on how it is used. Ding Qi also speculated that when the five realms practice is complete, Bamboo wine may also be a means to assist in the realm of falsehood.

Each inheritance has its own characteristics and is related to the inner logical thinking system of the secret method. For example, practicing the secret method of the external world, Ding Qi has already experienced the means of entering the realm of falsehood, which is to directly realize the external world that does not exist and is constructed in the soul.

Then the descendants of Xiangshui Peak can one day use bamboo wine to realize the false realm they visualized. The prerequisite for this is to achieve the perfect practice of the five realms, and whether they can be broken is another matter.

However, Ding Qi did not say too much about the speculation about entering the false realm. Because the false realm is not spoken or asked, if it is too clear, it will lead to misleading, making Cui Shanhai think what should be done at that time, that is the so-called obstruction of knowledge. Ding Qi draws such a conclusion from so much fragmented information, which is not only related to the reasoning process, but also to his cultivation level.

Cui Shanhai was stunned for several minutes with the teacup on his back, and then he let out a sigh of relief: "So that's it! To be honest, I was shocked by you just now, and now I realize that I am too heartbroken. Sorry, thank you for your honest advice, and thank you for your guidance!"

Ding Qi smiled faintly: "You didn't say anything, you just muttered a few times in your heart, why bother to be sorry? I know your feelings. The secret of my own non-existence has been revealed, and anyone will have suspicion. This is because I'm talking too much."

Cui Shanhai: "No, no, no, I want to thank you for your excessive words, otherwise there would be no chance to ask for advice."

Ding Qi: "I dare not take it for advice, so I communicate with each other. What else does Master Cui Feng want to ask?"

Cui Shanhai: "Old Tan and Mr. Zhuang both said, how to open Xiangshui Peak more steadily, let me ask you."

Ding Qi: "So this is the matter, it's actually simple!" As he said that, he sent another divine thought.

Ye Zongqing reminded Cui Shanhai when he was having lunch, not to show off the treasure of the world of control, and not to let people know that he would carry the treasure of the world of control with him on weekdays. What should I do? In fact, Cui Shanhai himself can not lead the way today. He can come to Xiangshui Peak in advance and open the door when the guests arrive.

Secondly, it is important to note that Xiangshui Peak must have a central core area forbidden to enter. This area is easy to draw, which is where they are now. When visiting this main peak, the area where tourists are involved will reach the lake called Shanglongtan. You can no longer drill holes to climb to this area with statues of ancestors and practice stone chambers.

Ding Qi saw through many secrets of Xiangshui Peak here, and other experts might be able to see through it. There is another purpose of doing this, which is to not let outsiders know how many people there are in Xiangshui Peak.

Therefore, there must be at least three people every time the secret realm of heaven and earth are opened: the first person is responsible for bringing the visitor to the portal, but he does not come in and only stays outside to pick him up. The second person is equivalent to a tour guide, leading the guests to visit Xiangshui Peak. As for the third person, he usually does not show up, so he stays in the core area that is not open just in case, which also prevents visitors with ulterior motives from acting rashly.

As for how these three people are allocated, it depends on Xiangshuifeng’s own arrangement. In short, don’t let people see all the details of Xiangshuifeng at a glance, nor do you let people know how many people there are in Xiangshuifeng. Ding Qi opened Jinshanyuan so that’s how he arranged it. Now he told Cui Shanhai his experience.

Cui Shanhai pondered: "For example, today, I'll give an example... The little demon went to the Xishui Cave to bring you to the door. Shui Ruo opened the door in Xiangshui Peak with the treasure of the world control. She could stay here without showing up. I'll take you to visit Xiangshui Peak, and the little demon stayed outside to observe and respond."

Ding Qi nodded and said, "It can be arranged like this."

Cui Shanhai said with a bitter face again: "But there are too few people in Xiangshui Peak. If we are arranged in this way, these three people will always take turns to show their details, and others can still see the details."

Ding Qi: "If you are convenient to say, can you ask, how many people are there in Xiangshui Peak now?"

Cui Shanhai: "Apart from Shui Ruo and Xiao Xi, there is only one little demon. Xiao Xi is definitely not suitable. I didn't bring her here today, so there are only three generals who can come forward."

Ding Qi: "That's how there are, there are indeed fewer people. In fact, there are not too many people. Just show up a few more people. This will make people know that there may be you in the Xiangshui Peak Secret Realm. As for whether it is true or false, that is another matter. If it really doesn't work, I can lend a few people to help you, as long as you can trust it."

Cui Shanhai: "Then I would like to thank you for your help. I can certainly trust you when I host the business!"

Ding Qi: "Don't worry, thank me for your help, we have to pay."

Cui Shanhai: "That's of course! I open Xiangshui Peak for people to visit. Each person charges 100,000 yuan each time. How could the staff not be paid? By the way, how did your Kingsoft Courtyard calculate?"

Ding Qi: "It's actually very simple. It counts as three staff members every time. Whoever controls the treasure of the world will give you a subsidy of 200,000 yuan each time, and the other two will give you a subsidy of 100,000 yuan each time. The person I lend you can't control the treasure of Xiangshui Peak, so it's 100,000 yuan each time. As for how to allocate the remaining money, it's your Xiangshui Peak's own business."

Cui Shanhai stood up and said, "Toast you tea first, and toast you a few glasses of wine later! Your idea is so good, and I have helped too much! Unfortunately, I can't drink too much bamboo wine. I will cut a few more bamboos with wine on site, and we will drink a few more glasses of unprocessed ordinary bamboo wine."

Ding Qi: "Let's go out first, they should be anxious. If Master Cui Feng has something to do, you can contact me at any time."

Cui Shanhai thanked him repeatedly, which made Ding Qi embarrassed. Ding Qi first gave Cui Shanhai advice, and then said that he could send someone to help. This was a mutually beneficial decision. Fang Wai Sect, especially Ding Qi's disciples, will not only be able to go to Xiangshui Peak for free in the future, but also earn money! Each time, this "amateur part-time job" is higher than most formal jobs.
