Shangxian Cultivation Handbook

Back then when I was a beggar, my skin was as thick as a city wall, and it was a matter of course to reach out to beg; now, I like you, but I shrink back, one step forward is hell and one step back is an abyss.

——— Song Xun

Sacrifice is a very sacred thing for a country. Lu Hesheng has seen his father's sacrifice and Lu Qinghe's sacrifice.His father's sacrifice was very rigid, but it was the most traditional and rigorous sacrifice.When we arrived at Lu Qinghe, we just changed our person and gender.

Lu Qinghe only held a sacrificial ceremony once in his life, and it was at the age of 17, which was exactly the age when she was in her prime.Lu Hesheng was 15 years old at the time, and he was already a well-known young man in the capital.At that time, he stood under the stage and watched Lu Qinghe walk towards the sacrificial altar from a distance, dressed in white clothes, noble and pure like a fairy in the sky.

Maybe it's because he has seen Lu Qinghe like this, from now on he can no longer hold other women in his eyes.Except for Lu Qinghe, there is no other woman who is so beautiful.

When Lu Hesheng came out of the shower, Song Xun fell asleep lying on the desk, breathing a little loudly, and it sounded like snoring in Lu Hesheng's ears.

He pulled off the cloak on the hanger, walked to Song Xun and covered the cloak on his shoulders, then lay on his stomach and looked at Song Xun with his eyes open.

Song Xun is really pretty.If it was said that the skinny Song Xun who was tied up by five flowers for the first time was pleasing to his eyes, then the Song Xun who has grown tall and rounded his face is really easy to see in his heart.

He never knew that a young man could be so good-looking, even the way he snored looked extraordinarily pleasing.

"Ah Xun..." Lu Hesheng stretched out his hand to touch Song Xun's soft hair, and the corners of his lips were unconsciously stained with a smile.

Picking Song Xun back was indeed the best decision he had ever made in his life.

He withdrew his hand, got up, turned to the bookshelf beside him, took a book and went to the desk. The only thing he could do in the past three days was eat fast, take a shower and then extract scriptures.Meditation, that's all.

They were arguing and arguing, but they heard a 'boom' from the desk.Lu Hesheng was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look.I saw Song Xun curled up on the ground with his head in his arms, crying out in pain.

Yue Mo fell from the table because he fell asleep.There is no one left!

"It hurts!" Song Xun hugged his head and rubbed against Lu Hesheng, then put his head on Lu Hesheng's lapped legs, looked up at Lu Hesheng who looked helpless, "Master, I really hurt."

Lu Hesheng poked Song Xun's head with a pen: "Go to bed and sleep."

"Not sleepy anymore." Song Xun covered his forehead, "Master, aren't you sleepy? I can copy for you for a while."

"..." Lu Hesheng froze on the spot, and shook his head for a while, "No need. You have to copy the scriptures yourself to be sincere. If you are not sleepy, just read a book and go."

After hearing Lu Hesheng's expelling words, Song Xun reluctantly got up and went to look for the chess record that he brought with him earlier.

Seeing Song Xun squatting in a corner to read a book alone, Lu Hesheng was relieved.At that moment, he suddenly thought of Lu Qinghe.

In the past, Lu Qinghe got tired of copying the scriptures on the first day, and sent someone to summon him, and forced him to be detained in the sacrificial hall, asking him to help copy the scriptures.

This kind of memory is too vivid, now when I recall it, I always feel that Lu Qinghe is right in front of my eyes, I always feel that those scenes are by my side.

He reached out and rubbed his temples, forcing himself to relax.Sometimes, if he is immersed in the memory of missing Lu Qinghe, it is difficult to get out.Lu Qinghe is the only woman he has been in contact with in the past 16 years, and it is also the only woman he has thought about in this life.

Lu Hesheng took out a piece of paper from the pile of books, picked up the pen, and wrote: Lu Qinghe.

He didn't have a clue what to write next, he just wrote the words 'Lu Qinghe'.

Missing is probably like this, just reciting the name seems to think of everything about her.

On the second day of fasting, Lu Hesheng suddenly felt a little tired. Looking at Song Xun, the other party was so bored that he was lying on the table, his face was pressed against the desk, his eyes were fixed in a daze.

"Master, father~" Song Xun shouted to Lu Hesheng, "This sacrifice is so boring."

"One more day." Lu Hesheng himself felt a little bit hard. He is not a person who likes to be static. On the contrary, he prefers life with some excitement.

Song Xun turned his head and sighed fiercely: "This...is so difficult." When he was a beggar before, all he thought about was how to survive, how to beg more, how to hide from being chased. Fighting, there is almost no moment when you let your guard down.On such a day, other people would feel very sad after watching it hard and listening to it, but for Song Xun, it was still like this day by day.

People, it's just going to happen, isn't that the way it is?The so-called hard work, maybe this is for a person who has never tried it or is new to it.With more contact and more hard work, I actually got used to it.

Or how can habit be terrible?

"Can you play chess?" Lu Hesheng's hands were a little itchy, and at such a boring moment, he really wanted to have a big fight with Song Xun, even though he was the one who killed Song Xun unilaterally.

Upon hearing the invitation from his master, Song Xun's eyes lit up, he tidied up the things on the desk and put them aside, then his eyes brightened: "Come on!"

"..." Lu Hesheng rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers, "There is no chess board or chess pieces."

"!" The sudden blow caused Song Xun, who was still in high spirits, to wilt immediately.

Lu Hesheng looked at Song Xun's drooping appearance, no matter how he looked, he looked like a rabbit, and the cuter he looked, the more he wanted to touch the man's ears.Thinking of this, his hand was already on Song Xun's ear.Well, it is as soft as imagined, even the ear bones are very soft.

"..." Song Xun opened his mouth slightly and looked at Lu Hesheng in disbelief.He really wanted to ask, but seeing his master rubbing his ears with a serious face, he suddenly felt embarrassed to disturb the master's thoughts.

But, it's really uncomfortable!

No man likes being rubbed on the ear by another man, right?Right?Even though he was just a little boy.

Song Xun pretended to cough twice, and tentatively called out: "Master?" The effect was minimal, and Lu Hesheng completely ignored him.

"Master!" Song Xun raised the volume, and even reached out to push Lu Hesheng, which had an effect.

"En?" Lu Hesheng kept his face paralyzed, and his voice almost came out of his throat.

Song Xun opened his mouth, not knowing how to bring up the matter just now.For a moment, the air was as quiet as standing still.So quiet, Song Xun couldn't help but blush.

He didn't think much about it, but as soon as he calmed down, he remembered how seriously Lu Hesheng was pinching his ear just now.After thinking about it, his face turned red, and finally burned all the way to the tips of his ears.

"I'm blushing." Lu Hesheng was just stating a fact, but it always made people feel... no, it made Song Xun feel that his master was teasing him unintentionally.

"Hot...it's hot." Song Xun couldn't express what was in his heart, he could only roll his eyes around and make up nonsense.This time, even his neck was red.

"No." Lu Hesheng shook his head, "Are you..." Song Xun interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Ahhh, play chess, we can't play chess anymore, master." Song Xun felt that there was something wrong with the logic of his words, but when he was so embarrassed, who could care about the logic?

Lu Hesheng nodded, then shook his head again: "We can imagine playing chess."

"Huh?" Song Xun finally calmed down, "Imagine, playing chess?"

"I say one step, you say one step." Lu Hesheng explained slowly, "Imagine it in your mind, and you can also complete the game."

This... is very difficult.The test is no longer a person's chess skills, but also a test of memory.Song Xun boasted that he had a superb memory, but he couldn't help but feel a little guilty about what Lu Hesheng said.

"Can you come?" After Lu Hesheng finished speaking, he found it very interesting, and wished to start a round immediately.

"Come on!" Song Xun's neck twitched. We can discuss winning or losing later, but we should save face now.

Imaginary chess is far more difficult and time-consuming than usual chess.Two people, Song Xun took the black first, and Lu Hesheng held the white to Song Xun's third son.At first, the two played very fast, but after eight moves, the speed of the two slowed down.After a stick of incense, the two of them settled their accounts. On average, one person made 32 moves, and the winner has not yet been decided.

If it were in the past, a stick of incense would be enough for Lu Hesheng to force Song Xun into retreat. Unlike now, the chess game between the two of them has not made any progress.

This chess game lasted for a whole day, and the two in the middle ate a meal, and kept memorizing the chess game, for fear of forgetting it.

When Eunuch Gui came to make a routine rounds of the ward, he saw the master and the apprentice leaning back to each other, not knowing what they were doing.

"Lord Lu..." Eunuch Gui saw that the two of them didn't seem to be doing anything important, so he didn't care.

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he heard Song Xun suddenly say: "45, 72, die."

Eunuch Gui was startled suddenly, sweat broke out on his back: What's going on?How did he die?What died?What happened? !

"..." After Song Xun finished speaking, there was another moment of silence.After a while, Eunuch Gui cleared his throat and prepared to speak again when he was sure that Song Xun would stop talking: "Lord Lu, your scriptures..."

"81, 43, eye." Lu Hesheng spoke, interrupting Eunuch Gui's words.

"..." Eunuch Gui blinked his eyes twice, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it wasn't his own eyes.

What's going on?

Although I don't know what exactly happened, but Eunuch Gui is an old man after all, and he knows how to read people's eyes.Without asking too much, he even closed the door for the two of them after he retreated.After going out the door, he told the two guards outside: "Don't go in if you have nothing to do." So as not to disturb those two people.

This game of chess was probably the longest game the two of them had ever played. After the game, both of them lost their minds, and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

"Master, I think..." Song Xun panted, and said, "This game is mine, I win."

Lu Hesheng didn't care about it, and nodded: "Okay, you win." In fact, if you really want to care about the number of pieces on the chessboard, the number of white pieces is probably more than the number of black pieces.But hey, since my little apprentices are asking for a win, it's hard to refuse, isn't it?
