The night is deep, inside a classical villa on the outskirts of the city.

In the deepest part of the villa, in the green space divided by a low fence, an antique attic can be seen, with the carefully carved mahogany windows and doors covered with old-style cotton paper.

Yan Shuishui stood in front of the main entrance of the attic, looked at the closed door, and said respectfully: "Master, the disciple is back."

An old and hoarse female voice came from the attic:

"Shui'er, I have told you a long time ago that this rain prayer technique cannot be abused. Now the secular mortals are no longer the mortals of the past. Their science... science and science have already seen a corner of the natural laws of the world. It may not be impossible to see the strangeness of this rain. If it is discovered by mortals, even if they cannot track you down, the will of the external demons will attract those hidden free external demons to investigate."

"Master, I'm not a child." Yan Shuishui pouted and said, "After I used the rain prayer technique, the rain cloud immediately dissipated. Even if the external demons noticed it, they would not find me."

"You know, be careful." said the old hoarse female voice in the attic.

"By the way, Master, I want to ask you a question."

Yan Shuishui pretended to be careless and asked: "You told me before that there are no monsters now, and animals and plants cannot activate spiritual intelligence. So how can we activate spiritual intelligence?"

The old and hoarse female voice in the attic said in confusion: "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Yan Shuishui said helplessly: "I have a cat recently, but I am afraid that it will leave me shortly after a few years, so I want it to cultivate into a spirit."

She had already thought of a word, and there was indeed such a cat.

The reason why she concealed the pine tree at the entrance of the calligraphy and painting shop was mainly because she was worried that if the master and other experts knew that there was such a tree with wisdom, they might be interested in catching it for research. If the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop was not a master, wouldn’t the poor little tree be affected?

It is rare to know such a simple and cute monster. She doesn't want to see anything happen to the little pine tree.

"Want to help a cat become a sperm?"

The old and hoarse female voice in the attic smiled and said softly: "Then don't think about it. Legend has it that in ancient times, all spirits breathed in and absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and it was possible to open up spiritual wisdom. A successful practitioner could also enlighten all spirits into spirits. But after experiencing the great catastrophe in ancient times, this was just a delusion."

"Discussion?" Yan Shuishui asked in confusion: "Is it impossible to activate the wisdom now?"

"The great way is fifty, the sky is four nine, and there is no absolute in the world. Even in the era where external demons are everywhere, there are two methods that exist." The old and hoarse female voice in the attic said.

"Two?" Yan Shuishui's eyes lit up.

"First, in legend, in ancient times, there was a divine object in the earth called "Emperor Liujiu". On the sky, you can go through the legendary Taichu well and fall into the world. Birds and beasts, plants and trees, and all spirits can be used to open up their spiritual wisdom and cleanse the demon soul. The more the demon soul swallowed, the stronger the demon soul."

After saying that, the old and hoarse female voice in the attic chuckled and said, "It's a pity that the land has changed a lot today, and the well of Taichu has been transformed into the Yuanchu Demon Well. The Emperor Liujiu has not appeared for thousands of years, so it is just a myth."

Yan Shuishui was stunned.

She originally thought that the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop might have accidentally obtained this "Di Liujiu", but it seems that it is not.

"What about the second method?" Yan Shuishui asked continuously.

"As for the second method..."

The old and hoarse female voice in the attic said slowly: "That is the real master of immortals who have taken action to enlighten him. Even if the masters who have crossed the Five Heavenly Pass cannot do it, after ascending to heaven, there must be a powerful immortal in the immortals who can do it, otherwise many Taoist dynasties will not have a demon god lineage."

After hearing this, Yan Shuishui was stunned.

A powerful immortal?

In today's era, only the powerful immortals can enlighten all spirits and open up their wisdom?

Originally, she was still thinking... the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop might be really a master, but judging from the paintings found in the wastebasket, the brushwork level was significantly lower.

So she suspected that those calligraphy and paintings were only obtained by the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop, and may not have been written by him.

But now it seems that the other party’s realm is probably really higher than her imagination!

Because... the pine tree at the entrance of the calligraphy and painting shop was enlightened by the other party and opened up his wisdom!

In the remote alleys of this secular city, is a real immortal and god hidden?

Is the other party a banished immortal descending to the earth? Or is the reincarnation of a celestial immortal?

As soon as she thought of this, Yan Shuishui couldn't help but feel trembling. Thinking of this, no wonder the other party dared to leave her alone in the calligraphy and painting shop, allowing her to see those precious calligraphy and paintings!

Perhaps those calligraphy and paintings are very precious to her and even to the masters of the times, but to the other party, they are probably nothing!

"What's wrong?"

An old and hoarse female voice in the attic said, "You don't have to force it too much. All spirits have life and death. Even practitioners have a day to die. There is no need to have more delusions for one...a pet."

Yan Shuishui took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and whispered: "Yes, Master."

"What's more, there is an interesting rumor about 'enlightening'."

The old and hoarse female voice in the attic said again: "Legendary, even if the masters who preach and enlighten them are enlightened, they cannot communicate with the enlightened objects after enlightenment, because once the enlightened person notices the enlightened objects, the enlightened objects will lose their freedom and cannot move. Only after they become humans can they return to normal."

When Yan Shuishui heard this, he suddenly realized.

No wonder, no wonder the pine tree said that when the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop saw it, it could not move.

I see.

"These absurd legends don't need to be mentioned too much."

An old and hoarse female voice in the attic asked, "Your Gonggong Dharma Body, you will be able to pass the 'Yushi' the next day, so how can you make a breakthrough?"

"Reporting to Master, I have found some opportunities. If it goes well, I can break through in a while." Yan Shuishui said with a smile: "I'll ask Master, I'll ask you."

This is thanks to the fact that she saw the copybook of "Supreme Good Like Water" in the calligraphy and painting shop, which touched her bottleneck and allowed her to see the real path of the water movement, and her spiritual realm was improved again.

Otherwise, I don’t know how many years I’ll be sleepy.

"Okay, very good, worthy of being the body of water virtue."

The old and hoarse female voice in the attic said in surprise: "You can break through the third day level in just half a qiu of practice. Maybe you still have hope to break the five levels in the future. Please leave the altar of praying heaven to Master. Just practice well."

'I would have liked to be able to comprehend that copybook often, alas...' Yan Shuishui sighed in his heart and said, "The disciple has surrendered."

...

...

The next morning.

As usual, Lin Zhishui walked through the alley with a shoulder bag and came to the door of his calligraphy and painting shop.

Not long after I opened the door, I saw someone walking in outside the door.

A man in his black windbreaker and over thirty years old, with medium-length hair tied behind his head, his face was angular, his lips were pursed tightly, and his face was written with two low words.

Guests came so early?

Lin Zhishui observed the guest as quickly as possible.

No, this person doesn’t look like he is here to buy calligraphy and paintings. Could it be... This person is the guest who came to take the thorns and apologize?

Cheng Qiyue’s parents?

He was a little nervous. After all, he fooled his daughter by more than 100,000 yuan. God knows what Han Suxin said yesterday. Maybe he gave Han Suxin a face, but he just perfunctory on the surface.

"Lin...Mr. Lin."

Cheng Buxiu took a deep breath and said with some trepidation.

He originally wanted to call Senior Lin, but suddenly remembered that his daughter said that Senior Lin liked a quiet and ordinary life, and just used his calligraphy and paintings to receive some practitioners and guests.

To call Senior Lin a bit of a destruction of the artistic conception of ordinary life. After all, few ordinary people call Senior.

"Mr. Cheng, right?"

Lin Zhishui spoke first, tried to keep calm, and smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to come so early. I happened to have something to go out yesterday and failed to treat you. It was because I was a little negligent. However, I have left some things in my store that can help Mr. Cheng solve his doubts. You shouldn't blame me again, right?"

He was a little worried that the other party thought he ran out to avoid debt, so he lost his momentum. This must be explained.

The subtext is: Anyway, I have left so many precious calligraphy and paintings in the store, and you have seen them all. You should understand that your daughter has not spent money in vain. You will not ask for money again, right?

"Of course not. It's my fault, so how dare I blame you?" Cheng Buxiu quickly lowered his head slightly.

He understands.

This senior Lin seemed to be apologizing, but in fact, he was afraid he was reminding him: "I had arrived yesterday and you would come to me. You are not qualified to let me take action personally. You can't even get through the little tricks of staying in the store."

As for Senior Lin’s last sentence, he should not blame him, it is probably just irony.
