A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals

If the cultivator's dislike for Tong Nuonuo was nothing but a setback to his self-esteem.Then the consequences of ordinary people's deception left an indelible psychological shadow on Tong Nuonuo.It may be that he suffered some traumatic sequelae in the dark and lightless mine. After he came out, Tong Nuonuo's lost situation became more serious.

It's no wonder that Tong Nuonuo is so wary of strangers and ordinary people.In the two times before boarding the boat, Tong Nuonuo was tense when she met Chen Xiao, because she was afraid that she would fall into another trap and be betrayed by accident.But now everyone is on the same boat, and the boundless sea is outside.Thinking that Chen Xiao couldn't do anything to him, Tong Nuonuo really let go of his guard.

After Chen Xiao knew what happened to Tong Nuonuo in the past, how could she blame such a ill-fated boy again.For such a simple road idiot, there is no harm in being more careful and defensive.

The inner cabin was a room for four people. In addition to them, a tall and strong senior monk lived in before sailing.This monk is much younger than Du Rong, but his temper is not very good.At the beginning, he pushed the door of the room with arrogance, intending to make a head start.It turned out that Tong Nuonuo's cultivation level was higher than his, and he was in the foundation building period.He quickly changed his attitude and shrank as obediently as a quail.

For such a person who gets arrogant when meeting someone who is weaker than him, and becomes a coward when he finds out that the other party is stronger than himself, none of the three of Chen Xiao is willing to take the initiative to make friends with the other party.Their attitude was very obvious, and the strong monk didn't move forward.I go out early and come back late every day. Except when I come back to sleep, I basically spend time in the practice room, restaurant or teahouse.

Du Rong and Tong Nuonuo are both poor people. Although Chen Xiao likes to enjoy life, she will not spend money indiscriminately when her future is uncertain.Therefore, apart from going to the deck to let the wind go, the three of them spend most of their time in the room.At the beginning, Chen Ling thought that the trap table with folding legs was good for playing cards, but now it really came in handy.

Among Tong Nuonuo's luggage, there was a chess piece used for games.This is a game similar to Monopoly in the previous life, consisting of several pieces of different colors, a dice, and a piece of paper with grids drawn on it.

Each of the three people takes one to represent themselves, rolls the dice in turn, and moves on the grid according to the number of points.Some grids have words written on them, representing different environments and locations.If you encounter an inn, you have to rest for a round; if you encounter a beast unfortunately, you must return to the starting point; if you enter a fairy gate, you can advance a few more spaces; if you encounter an adventure, you can roll the dice again... …always, a lot of variety and a lot of fun.

Considering Tong Nuonuo's age, Chen Xiao didn't find it strange that Tong Nuonuo had such a game of chess.What surprised him was the rectangular box on Tong Nuonuo's back.When Tong Nuonuo was looking for game chess, he found a bunch of things.It contained clothes, personal belongings, game boards, and some mechanism parts, as well as the materials he collected along the way.Chen Xiao didn't pay attention at first, but then she was a little dazed.

Chen Xiao guessed that his box should be a storage utensil similar to mustard seeds, otherwise so many things would never fit in it.Seeing that Du Rong didn't show any surprise, he understood that this was probably not uncommon in the world of cultivating immortals.Once again, Chen Ling told himself to be calm and not to make a fuss.

During the voyage at sea, their daily life is very regular.When Chen Xiao gets up in the morning, he will go to the deck to exercise his body, enjoy the sight of the sea and sky, and breathe the fresh air with the smell of the tide.Then go to the cafeteria to have breakfast, and return to the cabin to play chess games to spend the morning.After lunch at noon, he would take the book he brought out to a place with better light and read it all afternoon.After dinner in the evening, he lay on the bed and went to bed early.

Du Rong and Tong Nuonuo were much more diligent than Chen Xiao.Sometimes Du Rong would go to the practice room to discuss with other people, and sometimes he would go to the secret room to meditate.Tong Nuonuo would go with him when he went to meditate in the secret room, and when Du Rong was looking for someone to discuss, he would sit in the small space in the cabin and ponder the mechanism materials.

Regarding Chen Xiao's laziness, the two of them had no other thoughts.After all, Chen Xiao didn't have spiritual roots and couldn't practice.No one can force him to work and rest with the two of them.However, what they didn't know was that Chen Xiao seemed to be quite free every day, but in fact he had a lot to do.He was busy studying the compass in his consciousness.

Since the current luck in the compass is barely enough for it to appear, Chen Ling summoned it as little as possible.The compass is the size of an adult's palm, and there is a magnetic needle at the Tianchi in the center.The magnetic needle has a point at one end and a small point at the other end.On the disk at the bottom of Tianchi, there is a red line running through the central axis.At one end of the red line, there are two dots at both ends.

Anyone who looked at it in the previous life would be able to recognize this as a compass.It is the most important tool in the center of the compass, as can be seen from its name Zhongyang Tianchi.As long as the feet are separated, the two sides of the compass are held flat, and the angled end of the magnetic needle coincides with the points on both sides of the red line, and the direction pointed is true north.In addition, the direction of the straight needle points to the true south.The compass has a wide range of uses, not only used by Feng Shui masters, but also used when going out, geological exploration, tourism exploration, sailing patrols, marching and fighting.

However, in the morning, taking advantage of no one's attention, Chen Ling summoned the compass in his consciousness.Make the Tianchi pointer overlap with the red line, and the direction it points to is not north.Although it had been expected, it still made Chen Xiao feel complicated.

The reason why the compass can play a role in indicating the direction is because the interior of the planet's core below the mantle is magma containing a large amount of ferromagnetic elements.The entire planet is one giant magnet, naturally divided into north and south magnetic poles.

According to Chen Xiao's observations on the ocean these days, he is not on the same planet, and it is very likely that this world is a plane.Then the question arises, where is the true north pointed by the compass in a world without magnetic field?And why is the magnetic needle pointing to it?

Chen Xiao was troubled by this for many days, her hair was about to be scratched, and she couldn't figure out this problem.Really unable to understand the reason, Chen Xiao temporarily put the question aside.Turning to think about more practical issues, orientation is the most important reference for geomancy and acupoint determination, so should we follow the orientation on the compass now, or follow the direction of the world?This needs to be solved after going ashore and after practice.

During the long time on the boat, Chen Xiao seemed to be leisurely, but no one knew what he was thinking.

Every morning, he used the most accurate time when the sun and stars rose to compare with the compass in his consciousness.After calculating the angle difference between the two, keep memorizing them.He must not only remember it with his brain, but also remember it deeply with his body.In this way, the actual direction on the compass can be instantly converted when needed.

He didn't know if it was useful to memorize these, and he didn't know if he was doing useless work.He is just used to this kind of hard work for Feng Shui, and is preparing for the possibility of using it one day in the future.

It wasn't until Chen Xiao took what he had trained from the cabin to the deck, that he could immediately distinguish two directions when he saw the sun and stars, that he ended this unknown and silent special training.

At this time, the distance voyage is almost over.This time the voyage went smoothly. Although there was a storm, it was far from reaching the point of returning.He also encountered creatures in the sea, but they were just giant beasts, which were driven away by several escort immortal masters on board the Ascension.The whole process followed the established route, and there was no getting lost or stranded where it should not be.It seems that the three return journeys of the Chongxuan School were all unusual and special events.

It takes three to four months for ordinary ships to sail, and it also needs to consider whether there is a favorable wind.Powered by spirit stones, the Climb is much faster than sea-going ships driven by wind. It took only one month to cross the coasts of seven or eight countries along the way.The building boats will dock every few days to replenish fresh water and food, and many passengers who are bored on board will take this opportunity to disembark for some activities.However, because the docking time is only a short hour or two, people don't dare to go far, and only do activities near the pier.

Chen Xiao also went down with Du Rong, but Tong Nuonuo refused to go with him.He was worried that he would accidentally leave the two of them. This loss was not a joke, and it was impossible for the Ascend to delay the trip just because of him.

Chen Xiao and Du Rong walked around the small market near the pier.Although the countries here are different, the people's looks and languages ​​are not much different, and the currency of gold, silver and copper is the same.The slight difference is probably the pattern cast on it, except for this, even the weight and specifications are the same.

This made Chen Xiao realize that the currency casting in these countries must have been unified by a certain force, or the casting process and equipment were all provided by the other party.Because such sophisticated and high-end casting skills are not in line with the national strength of these countries.Chen Xiao immediately thought of Zhishitang, and only Zhishitang, an alliance composed of multiple cultivating forces, could do such a thing.

This morning, Chen Xiao was standing on the deck as usual, basking in the sun to replenish calcium, when the bronze bell on the upper ship was suddenly rang three times.The long and crisp sound of the bell spread, and suddenly some people who were also active on the deck cheered happily.It seemed that a small stone was thrown into the water, gradually even the people in the cabin boiled up.Someone couldn't hold back and ran to the edge of the deck, shouting vigorously towards the front.

Chen Xiao realized later that Hanshan City was approaching.
