Penglai delusion

Seeing the child motionless, Jiang Tan seemed to be stupid, so he just said calmly, "But I'm not sure. If you don't think it's necessary, you can just stay here and farm. If you need it, I'll help you see it."

Xi Mo lowered his eyes and remained silent, his eyelashes drooped like butterfly wings, and he seemed to be asleep.

Jiang Tan didn't rush, and after eating a few spoonfuls of porridge, the child said tremblingly, "Master."

Xi Mo raised his face, his eyes sparkled, his face was in a state of confusion, and he smiled slowly, "Then help me take a look." After saying this, he stared at Jiangtan and did not move.

Jiang Tan didn't care about him, he ate the porridge and bean cake, and when he got up to put away the bowl, he looked at Xi Mo and said, "Master, leave it alone, I'll come."

Jiang Tan gave a "hmm" and put the dishes in the bucket as usual.

Xi Mo saw that the person left, threw a piece of acacia fruit into the bucket, grabbed the loofah pulp, quickly cleaned the stove and stone table, rubbed his fingers again, and then jumped in front of Jiangtan, and obediently called out "Master".

"Take off your shirt and go sit on the bed." Hearing this, Xi Mo vaguely felt that he had heard this sentence somewhere before.Sitting down while thinking about it, he looked at Jiang Tan's persistence and then looked at him, saying, "Don't move around."

Xi Mo remembered that his ribs were itchy when he was pressed by this person last time, he couldn't help clenching his fists, grinning and said, "Understood, Master."

Jiang Tan's expression was slightly restrained, and he was about to start, when he saw the child's eyeballs tightly glued to his own, he paused and said, "Close your eyes."

"Master just press it casually, I'm really...uh!" Before he finished speaking, he bit his tongue in pain.

Xi Mo felt that he was being slowly and painfully beaten by Jiang Tan.

When he was beaten to the point of losing his mind, he couldn't help but think of Elder Gandu's palm technique, the thunderbolt-like chain of palms, which was dismantled by Jiang Tan at the moment, and greeted him section by section, so painful that he wanted to scream but felt embarrassed .

After finally waiting for Jiangtan to finish fighting, Xi Mo burst into tears as soon as he opened his eyes.But with sweat all over his face, it doesn't look very abrupt.

He took a few breaths from the pain, and saw Jiang Tan bent his knee, leaned forward, and pointed his fingers together as if he was gesticulating something.Resisting the urge to lean back, he tried his best to straighten his back, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw the sweat dripping from his chin dripping on the back of Jiang Tan's hand.Some trembled and fainted, slowly moistening the blue veins; some slid along the slender wrist, and dripped deep and shallow water stains along the forearm.

Xi Mo held his breath at that time, the secret channel was broken.

"Master." He suppressed his heartbeat and said very weakly, "Hands are dirty."

"En." Jiang Tan focused on the texture of the chest and ribs, but didn't notice that the child's sweat was pouring like a spring.

Xi Mo was very nervous.He didn't understand what he was nervous about, but he comforted himself instinctively, even if this person found out that he was soaked in sweat, he wouldn't react.

He glanced slightly, and saw that Jiang Tan's hand was pressed against his heart, and the shadow of his fingertips was cast on the skin. When he slid, the shadow moved with his shape, and it felt like a real touch.

Xi Mo suddenly started to feel dizzy, closed his eyes and didn't dare to look any more.

Jiang Tan probably felt that it was not enough, so he studied for a while and then started his dismantling of muscles and bones.When he slapped his palm down, he actually slipped. Then he raised his eyes to look at Xi Mo's face, and found that his cheeks were abnormally red like rouge.

I went to the bathroom across the door to get a towel, "Wipe it off."

Xi Mo picked it up, and hurriedly wrapped himself up, only showing his eyes and looking at Jiang Tandao, "Master, I found out, you don't sweat at all."

"..."

"Is it possible for people who enter the country to do this?"

"maybe."

After being beaten slowly by Jiang Tan for the second time, Xi Mo was already somewhat fascinated.

He wiped away his tears, looked at Jiang Tan's back, and forced a smile, "Master, before I joined the sect, I touched the bones of Elder Gan Du twice in the same way."

"Actually, he found out that I have no quality at the first time. He only felt a little unbelievable, so he touched it again." Xi Mo said, "Master laughed, I may really have no qualifications for cultivation."

江

Tan didn't know if he listened or not, so he said "hmm", then ticked a few strokes on the book, and hurried out.

Xi Mo was about to fall apart, so he followed, and saw someone pull out the straw basket that was carried out today from the big table, and took all kinds of exotic flowers and herbs from it, and put them in a small basket, and then lifted them up. He went to the bathroom, fiddled with himself, and called out after a while, "Xi Mo."

Xi Mo sat dryly for a while, the pain in his body was still there, but he was very energetic when he heard these words, "Master!"

Stepping into the bathroom, I could only smell a strange smell.

Even though he was sweating a little, Xi Mo almost immediately picked out a ray of cold and thin fishy sweetness from the cumbersome fragrance of plants and trees.

That's blood in the snow.It is the ice in the throat, the cold in the eyes.

Then he saw a pool of emerald green water, black and green, shiny with oil.Because there is a charcoal fire burning in the dark tank at the bottom of the pool, a few sticky air bubbles pop out from time to time.

"Go in." Jiang Tan said, "The water should cover the chin, don't get it in the eyes. You may be blind." Then he closed the door very flatly, "Soak for an hour, and don't leave the water during this time."

Xi Mo looked at the seemingly extremely cold water that was actually extremely hot, and gritted his teeth and stepped in.However, it is not as he imagined, a layer of skin can be melted away when entering.

It is warm and cool.If the fire hadn't been burning all the time, it would probably have been frozen.

Xi Mo stood in the water for a while, took a handful and brought it to the tip of his nose to sniff lightly, only to feel that the smell of blood like snow was even stronger.

He pulled the water surface a few times with his fingers, and sat down slowly.I just don't want to feel a piercing pain when my abdomen and back enter the water.

The pain was so great that he opened his mouth and breathed out continuously, feeling that the water squeezing the viscera seemed to crush something deep in the cavity, boiling silently, burning like wildfire.

Xi Mo couldn't sit still several times, but thinking of Jiang Tan's order, he bit the bullet and held on.After the first half an hour, I seemed to get used to it. I felt like I had shed a layer of skin, and the new flesh was throbbing and itching.But when he raised his arm, the skin and flesh were clearly growing, but the broken phalanx no longer felt.

Among the medicinal herbs in the stone pond, he could smell black herb, atractylodes rhizome, Chuanxiong, Jiangxiang, and the rest he had never seen before.

But it can be guessed that Jiang Tan must have put a lot of thought into picking these medicines.

Because of the matter of the root, I have made enough preparations, but I still have to ask myself if I am willing to accept it.If I chose not to open the root bone at that time, I probably wouldn't be able to use these medicines.

But he certainly won't say anything.

There was a hint of sweetness on the tip of Xi Mo's tongue.

He thought of the sand pears and succulents that were placed in the storage room, and became more energetic, thinking that it would be good to get through an hour, when he heard two light knocks on the door, "You can come out."

"Got it, Master!"

Xi Mo turned out of the pool while stepping on the water dripping wet, felt refreshed by the cool wind coming through the small window, and the discomfort all over his body gradually dissipated after leaving the water, even with his fingers. It hurts.

He removed his underpants, wrapped the prepared thin sheet around his waist, and dragged the straw sandals to the inner room.

Jiang Tan said, "Sit down."

Xi Mo sat down on the couch in a regular manner, gritted his teeth and was beaten for the third time.

This time, Jiang Tan was more proficient than before, and his movements were much smoother, at least he didn't knock Xi Mo's tears down.Xi Mo finally waited for him to stop, and wanted to applaud him, but just as he put his palms together, he was pulled across his right wrist and held his pulse.

Xi Mo didn't dare to move, and obediently had several major veins pressed, before he heard Jiang Tan calmly say, "You really have roots."

Xi Mo couldn't help but hold his breath.

"But the ghost energy accumulated in your body is stubborn, and it's not easy to get rid of." Jiang Tan looked at the child's dark eyes, paused, and said, "Before, your spirit orifice was blocked by ghost energy, so you can't lead the spirit into your body." , two wounds upon entry."

"Master, I..." Xi Mo's eyes darkened, and after thinking about it, he seemed to guess why he was haunted by ghosts, and then he wanted to say

Nothing can be done.

"We'll see your situation tomorrow, try to straighten your bones before falling into ambush." ​​Jiang Tan didn't care how he was contaminated with ghost energy, "You don't have much time, although you need to enter the Tao as soon as possible, don't act too hastily."

"Disciple understands." Xi Mo said earnestly, "Remember Master's instruction."

Jiang Tan didn't speak, but concentrated for a moment and said, "Do you have a way to get in?"

If it is said that when Xi Mo joined the sect, he learned the way of medicine out of desperation, and later switched to the way of poison because of the superposition of many factors, then what he really likes most is the way of war.

Since the benefactor bestowed the knife, he has realized that in this troubled world, only the cold blade in his hand can keep the warm sustenance in his heart.

But he couldn't say that.Because he saw that Jiangtan was probably not good at military skills, and there was not a single decent weapon in the house.

Thinking of this, Xi Mo was stunned suddenly, unable to think of what Jiang Tan was good at.

This person seems to know a little bit about everything, especially the knowledge in the book, almost answering every question.Although he doesn't know how to practice martial arts, he is also very skilled. He understands medical principles, creation, and formations.

In an instant, Xi Mofu was like a soul, with an unknown joy in his brows, "Since I am Master's apprentice, I must follow Master's way."

The moment he said this, he let go of some obsessions and did not regret it.

Jiang Tan, however, was like a stalk, and said after a while, "I haven't entered the Tao."

impossible!Xi Mo secretly thought, how could he be like this if he had not entered the Tao...

Jiang Tan looked at the pair of dark eyes roundly reflecting himself, and couldn't help saying, "You..."

"If Master has not entered the Tao, wouldn't he be the same as me?" Xi Mo cut off the conversation blankly, and suddenly moved closer, staring at him more intently, "No... I always thought you had already entered the country. "

Jiang Tan paused, seeing the child getting closer and closer, neither advancing nor retreating, so he put his finger on his shoulder, "Speak well, where do you want to go?"

Xi Mo was curious about how he could catch him, but he smiled obediently and stopped moving, "I want to join the army."

Jiang Tan nodded, "Okay." Then he was rubbed against his body, "Master is so powerful, he really knows everything!"

He never expected that he would be hugged by someone, with his arms propped up with no place to rest, looking at Xi Mo's head buried in his chest, he said that the child was probably overjoyed, that's why he made such a sudden attack, no, he suddenly exploded.

Then he patted the child on the shoulder, "Okay, let me go."

"Master is so kind, I can't repay you." Xi Mo said sincerely, "You helped me find my roots, so I can only hug you with this newly created body."
