Chapter Thirty-One: Snow Gourmet Banner
Ding Zhui stayed not far away, and the yard number was "Tianzi Bingchen". When he arrived at the gate of the yard, Ji Wuli knocked on the door. Before he could wait, Ding Zhui came out.
Ding Zhui was very enthusiastic. After welcoming the two of them, he laughed and said, "Junior Sister Hua has moved to this Biyao Peak. I'm afraid the yard of my brothers who have been there is only one hand. Ding is really honored." Ding Zhui's yard is as big as Hua Ruyan, but the furnishings inside are much simpler, with only a few big locust trees, but no flowers.
"Senior brother is joking. I am bringing my apprentice to ask for things." Hua Ruyan was not anxious or slow, and was plain. Ji Wuli was moved after hearing this. The master actually didn't like to interact with others, and came to Master Ding for his sake. He was a little flattered to think about it.
He also invited Hua Ruyan and his disciples into the room. After sitting down, Ding Zhui praised Ji Wuli for a while, saying that he had been in the disciple competition for half a year and was really amazing. Ji Wuli naturally made some polite mistakes.
After being polite, Ding Zhui suddenly asked Ji Wuli and said, "Nephew, do you like reading books?"
"Reading a book?" Ji Wuli was a little confused and said, "I have been studying for a few years before, and I can read some books." In fact, what Ji Wuli was most reluctant to read when he was studying was the books and classics given by his teacher, but he was happy to read some story books, strange stories, etc.
"Haha, that's good, that's good. I'm afraid you don't like what you give me." After Ding Zhui said that, he went back to the inner room and came out with an old book in a short while.
Ji Wuli stood up and took the old book. The book was very thick and a bit worn. The cover that should have been blue was slightly yellow, with three large seal characters "Shan Hai Jing" written on it. (Sincere, "Shan Hai Jing" should not have "Shan Hai Jing" in the fictional novel, but I do like this name)
"I got this book by chance in Yaoguang City near Danxue Mountain. The book is about some strange things, just take a look." Ding Zhui suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "The content at the end of this book is a bit different. I, Ding Zhui, don't read much and don't understand it. I, the nephew of Pin, can give it to you to see."
Ji Wuli thanked Ding Zhui and handed Hua Ruyan the "Shan Hai Jing" to Hua Ruyan and asked her to take a look first.
Hua Ruyan flipped through the previous pages, looked at them for a few glances and turned to the end. She looked at them for a while, but seemed to be becoming more and more confused. Finally, she frowned and said, "I can't understand what I wrote." She gave Ji Wuli the book again.
Ji Wuli also briefly reviewed the Shanhai Jing. The front was about writing some strange legends, strange anecdotes, and even illustrations. He was overjoyed before he saw the back. He couldn't see such books the most.
The last two or three pages have changed greatly, not only the content, but also the size of the font has changed. Obviously, this book is not written by the same person. The third to last page says: (Sorry, the content in "Ziqing Zhixuan Collection·Bai Yuchan" is written, you can skip it, I am nonsense) "A word and half sentence will make you understand the mystery, why use thousands of alchemy books? If a person is not burdened by his body, he will be in front of him. If he wants to refine the body and refine the spirit, he must know the return to the root and replies. Therefore, he says: There is a return to the root and replies the root and replies the gate. And like this, if a person knows the real point, then what will return to the root and replies the gate?
It is difficult. Therefore, it is said: nothingness produces nature, nature produces the great way, and the great way produces one qi, and one qi divides yin and yang into heaven and earth. Yin and yang are heaven and earth, and heaven and earth produce all things is the root of creation. This is the true qi, the first of all things. Taixu and Taiwu, the space is too mysterious, dark, not magnificent, vast, not measurable by the size, not measurable by the shore, its big has no outside, its small has no inside, its small has no color, no abyss below, and one thing is complete and revealed throughout the ages..." After looking for a while, Ji Wuli was not as clear as the flower like smoke, and he had some insights, but he could not say it.
Seeing Ji Wuli's expression was solemn, as if he was thinking. Hua Ruyan and Ding Zhui looked at each other, both of them were surprised, but did not disturb Ji Wuli.
Three pages are only a few hundred words, Ji Wuli will read it soon. But after reading the first time, I still feel that I am still not satisfied, and I will read it again. The more I read it, the more strange it is. I only feel that these words are profound and abnormal, but they also contain the ultimate principles of the creation of heaven and earth. Unconsciously, Ji Wuli has read it more than ten times, and even his master and uncle are by his side.
Sometimes he showed joy on his face, sometimes he frowned and thought hard. After reading it many times, Ji Wuli still understood it halfway. Suddenly he sighed and put the book on the table - and then he remembered that he was still in Ding Zhui's house, and his master was right beside him.
Ji Wuli scratched his head and sat down embarrassedly. Ding Zhui asked, "Nephew Ji, do you understand?" Ji Wuli nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I seem to understand a little, but I can't say it."
"Is it a method of practice?" Ding Zhui was very concerned about whether it was related to practice. Ji Wuli looked confused and thought, "I can't see it, maybe it's right."
"Yes, no, no, even if you, Master Ding, won't want to go back." Hua Ruyan didn't understand at all after reading it. Ji Wuli could understand it, which surprised her and was very curious.
Of course, Ji Wuli was not afraid that Ding Zhui would go back, but he was really confused and had only a little understanding. So he shook his head and said, "Disciple is really unclear, and he dare not deceive Master, Master." Hua Ruyan and Ding Zhui were both slightly disappointed. They both hoped that Ji Wuli could tell the mystery.
Ding Zhui smiled and said, "No matter what, Master Jian can really understand a little. Then you can read more when you have time in the future, and maybe you can understand everything." Ji Wuli put away the "Shan Hai Jing" and said, "If you understand it, you will definitely tell your disciples to appraise and master. Please ask the two to help you identify the disciples to see if your disciples have any errors." Ji Wuli could understand it, but Hua Ruyan and Ding Zhui didn't understand at all, saying that asking them to appraise was just a polite Er.
Ding Zhui waved his hand and smiled and said, "My nephew has a very good understanding. In the future, he must practice hard to live up to your talent and jade quality." The word "intellectuality" is the most mysterious, but everyone's understanding is different, both innate and later. And understanding is also related to all aspects. Some people are good at writing poetry and essays, while others are even better at dancing swords and swords. There are various differences, so they cannot be judged lightly.
"The disciples are not 'good talents and beautiful jade', 'bad copper and iron'." Ji Wuli said solemnly again: "The disciples will definitely practice hard and live up to the expectations of Master and Master."
Ding Zhui said again: "I don't know if this book is useful, I'll give it to you for fun." After that, he took out a small exquisite flag from his arms and smiled: "This snow-polish flag is too cold and cold, it doesn't match the magic weapon I use, and it can match your snow-clear and use it."
Seeing Ding Zhui take out the flag, Hua Ruyan's expression changed slightly and said, "Senior Brother Ding, this magic weapon is too expensive!" Ding Zhui said, "Not expensive." He was afraid that Ji Wuli would not want it, and then laughed and said, "If it weren't for me, I wouldn't be willing to give it to someone with me, senior brother." After that, he handed the Xue Tao Banner to Ji Wuli.
After taking the small flag, he immediately felt a chill in his hand, and the cold air in the flag seemed to be snowing. Ji Wuli Zhixue Tao Banner is a very rare treasure, so he hurriedly knelt down to Ding Zhui and thanked him repeatedly.
