Chapter 17 Great Opportunity

Literary and martial arts cultivation, this is easy to understand.

Literary and martial arts can be regarded as cultivation.

Poison cultivation and medicine cultivation are also considered skills, and this is understandable.

What is the status of smokers and drinkers?

Li Banfeng asked: "Does smoking and drinking count as cultivation?"

"Forget it, why doesn't it count? Whether it's smoking or drinking, as long as you can get out of the realm, it's all about cultivation!" Qin Xiaopang said quite proudly, "Uncle Liu in our village must drink five kilograms of wine a day. I found out later that He’s a wine repairman on the second floor!”

Ma Wu expressed doubts about this: "What does Uncle Liu Liu do for a living? Can you afford wine cultivation?"

Not everyone can afford this wine cultivation practice. How much does it cost to practice five kilograms of wine a day?

Qin Xiaopang was unconvinced and said: "Uncle Liu is a wine maker!"

Ma Wu was still doubtful: "Even if he is a winemaker, how many kilograms of wine can he make in a day? He drinks five kilograms of wine a day. Is the home-brewed wine enough for him?"

Li Banfeng felt that Ma Wu was a bit too serious. What if Uncle Liu opened a winery?

Unexpectedly, Ma Wu actually said: "Wine cultivators are not common. I want to see you, Uncle Liu. Where is he?"

Qin Xiaopang puffed up his chest and said, "Dead!"

Ma Wuyi frowned: "How did he die? Don't say he died of drinking!"

It is impossible for a wine cultivator to die drunk.

Qin Xiaopang scratched his head: "It has something to do with drinking, but it doesn't count as drinking to death.

That day Uncle Liu got drunk, jumped into the river, and drowned. "

Ma Wu snorted and smiled: "Brother, it's not that I don't believe you, it's that what you said makes no sense. How can a second-level cultivator drown so easily?"

Qin Xiaopang answered seriously: "You can't drown easily. Uncle Liu jumped into the river and swam very happily. It wasn't much trouble at first.

The villagers asked him to go ashore quickly, saying that there was a river mouth ahead and the current was fast.

Liu Erbo said that no matter how strong the current was, he was not afraid. He saw the Patriarch, and the Patriarch helped him change his Taoism and made him a water cultivator. "

"Water cultivator..." Ma Wu held his chin and thought for a long time, "There is indeed such a sect, but it is not common. Has Erbo Liu really become a water cultivator?"

"I don't know," Qin Xiaopang shook his head and said, "Anyway, I don't believe it, and neither do the people in the village.

In order to prove it to us, Uncle Liu deliberately swam to the strongest and deepest part of the estuary, and plunged into the mud at the bottom of the river. When we fished him out, his mouth and nose were filled with mud, and he was exhausted. I have long since run out of energy. "

Ma Wu let out a long sigh after hearing this, and seemed to believe Qin Xiaopang's words: "Jiu Xiu, this gate is too dangerous."

Li Banfeng asked: "How much did Uncle Liu drink that day?"

Qin Xiaopang replied: "I heard they drank twelve kilograms."

No wonder he met the Patriarch.

"Twelve kilograms? Can you drink twelve kilograms of water?" Li Banfeng really felt that it was outrageous, but thinking that this little fat man had to eat twenty kilograms of rice, he felt that this place was outrageous.

"Do wine cultivators have to drink hard?" Li Banfeng wanted to know more about it.

"Of course you have to drink hard, otherwise how can you make time?" Qin Xiaopang looked at Li Banfeng seriously.

"What does it mean to make time?" Li Banfeng still didn't understand.

Xiaopang despised Li Banfeng even more: "Why don't you know anything?"

Ma Wu was very patient and explained to Li Banfeng: "No matter which sect you enter, pass the test, or achieve the level, you must practice in the future.

But if you practice step by step, it will take ten years to advance to each level, that is, it will take ten years to go from the first level to the second level. If you want to practice from the entry level to the tenth level, it will take ninety years. Can you afford to wait? "

Li Banfeng didn't know how to answer.

He didn't know how big the span was from the first floor to the second floor, how big the benefits would be, and whether it was worth the ten years.

Ma Wu continued: "If you don't want to wait, you have to earn back this time. I don't know what the rules are for wine cultivators, but I have seen food cultivators on the first floor who eat five kilograms of rice a day. This is called step-by-step. You can't eat enough. If you count, your cultivation will regress.

Eating ten kilograms of rice every day is called time earned. The extra five kilograms of rice he eats can help him earn one more day of practice. If he insists on eating ten kilograms every day, he will be promoted to the second level in five years!

If he insists on eating twice as much, he will be able to reach the tenth level in forty-five years without persisting for ninety years. "

"What are the benefits of cultivating to the tenth level?"

Ma Wudao: "In the entire Yaowang Valley, there is not even a sixth-level cultivator. As long as you reach the seventh level, you will be the leader of Yaowang Valley.

Not to mention Yaowanggou, in the entire Puozhou, there are only a handful of tenth-level cultivators. This is a serious and powerful party! "

Li Banfeng had no interest in the ladle: "If you have cultivated to the tenth level, you are now 80 years old. If you don't think you are a powerful person, what can you do?"

"What's wrong with Seven Old and Eighty?" Ma Wu smiled, "When you reach the tenth level of cultivation, your life will change and your life span will be extended three times.

He used to live to be a hundred years old, but now he can live to be three hundred years old, seven to eighty years old. If converted three times, he would be over 20 years old. This is a good age! "

If you cultivate to the tenth level, you will have three times your lifespan!

This is so attractive!

Qin Xiaopang patted his chest and said, "From the day I was born, my neighbors have said that I am blessed. I will definitely be able to obtain these ten levels of cultivation!"

Li Banfeng looked at Little Fatty Qin: "So, Brother Qin will have to eat five kilograms of rice every day from now on?"

"If it's not enough after reaching the second floor..." At this point, Qin Xiaopang was a little worried.

He was not worried about not being able to eat, but about not being able to afford it.

But he had already made his choice, because he knew that he had no other strengths except eating.

Li Banfeng asked: "If you cultivate to the ninth level, how many times can your life be extended?"

"The ninth level will not be extended!" Ma Wu waved his hand, "Only when you reach the tenth level can you change your fate. The ninth level is still the life span of an ordinary person. If you can't cultivate to the tenth level in your lifetime, all your efforts will be wasted."

This is a bit harsh. You can't extend your life before the tenth level.

If you practice step by step, it will take eighty years to reach the ninth level. Even if you start practicing at the age of ten, you will be ninety years old when you reach the ninth level. Will you still have the strength to continue practicing by then?

This is probably the reason why practitioners want to earn time and shorten the time of practice. They all want to impact the tenth level in their lifetime.

"Is it the same for every Taoist sect?"

Ma Wu nodded: "It's the same for every Taoist sect. If you want to change your fate, you have to practice with all your strength and rush to the tenth level.

Martial arts practitioners have to practice desperately every day, literary practitioners have to study desperately, food practitioners have to eat desperately, and pleasure practitioners have to work desperately.

Of course, there are also tricks, such as eating herbs, drinking medicinal soup, and taking elixirs. Those things are too expensive and not a long-term solution."

Li Banfeng thought for a while and asked: "What about farming practice?"

Qin Xiaopang was stunned: "Why choose farming practice? Isn't it for cheap?"

Li Banfeng really wanted to be cheap.

He only had 2,000 yuan on him and couldn't afford the medicine powder.

When Monkey Qiu left, he promised that he would give the money for choosing medicine, and Li Banfeng could choose any sect.

But Li Banfeng was not a shameless person. Two boxes of instant noodles can earn back a life. That's enough. Why should he let others spend so much money for him?

Ma Wu shook his head and said, "Brother Li, you must be careful. You can't take advantage of this. The medicinal powder has no high or low value. It is the wisdom of our ancestors. The reason why the medicinal powder for cultivation is sold cheaply is because no one buys it, because cultivation is the most difficult Taoist practice."

"What do you mean?"

Ma Wu said, "I don't know what the situation is in other states, but there should be farmers, right? You should know the hard work of farmers.

Spring planting and autumn harvest, working every day without rest, this can only be regarded as daily practice according to the routine.

Spending all my efforts to find good seeds and grow some exotic flowers and plants, This is a way to earn time.

Brother Li, think about it, when you are 70 or 80 years old, will you still be able to farm?

If you encounter a storm, flood, drought, or locust plague, and the harvest is not enough in a year, not only will you not earn time, but your cultivation may also be damaged.

If you encounter enemies or bad people who come to steal, rob, or set fires, you may not get any harvest in the whole year. This will not only damage your cultivation, but also endanger your life.

Brother Li, this road is too difficult, be careful, be very careful! "

It seems that farming cultivation is not an option. Ma Wu is right. This road is indeed too difficult.

Li Banfeng has a general understanding of the difference between happy cultivation and food cultivation.

"Then how should we practice while traveling?"

"Just walk around!" Xiaopang can answer this question, "The more places we travel and the farther we go, the faster our cultivation will grow and the more time we earn.

People who have no fixed place to live like to practice while traveling!"

"What about practicing at home?"

"Lying down at home, the longer you lie down, the faster your cultivation will grow!"

Li Banfeng was stunned and said, "You can practice while lying down at home!"

"Yes, that's why practicing at home is expensive!" Xiaopang said with regret, "If I hadn't saved enough money, I would choose practicing at home. Ma Wu, I see you are a rich man, why don't you choose practicing at home?"

Ma Wu shook his head and said : "I can't stand the boredom. I stay in the house most of the time throughout the year. Don't let me die of boredom.

To be honest, I like the word "joy" the most. I can't get through a day without the girl by my side."

Li Banfeng said: "This is easy. Just bring the girl to your house."

Ma Wu sighed lightly: "You can't just take her there. The mechanism of house cultivation is different from that of other Taoist sects. Cultivation is not earned by oneself, but by the spirit of the house."

"What is the spirit of the house?" Li Banfeng heard a lot of new terms.

This stumped Ma Wu:

"I can't really explain what a house spirit is. House cultivators rarely show up, especially after they reach a certain level. There are very few house dwellers to be seen.

I only know that house dwellers have to buy a good house. It can't be too conspicuous, otherwise people will disturb them. It can't be too secluded, otherwise they won't have food or drink.

The house itself must have spiritual energy. If you nourish this spiritual energy, you can cultivate a spiritual object, which is the house spirit.

I don't know what this spiritual object is, but if house cultivators want to reach a higher level, they must have a house spirit. This level is quite difficult.

The house spirit has a temperament. If the house cultivator can please the house spirit, the house spirit can help the house cultivator earn a lot of cultivation.

If you can't please the house spirit, your cultivation will not improve. If you anger the house spirit, there have even been cases where the house spirit kills the owner, that is, kills the cultivator."

Li Banfeng listened with his eyes wide open, and Qin Xiaopang listened very seriously. House cultivation is indeed a mysterious Taoist sect.

Li Banfeng asked: "Why would the house spirit be enraged? How could it reach the point of killing the owner?"

Ma Wu said: "I have only heard of this kind of thing once, and that happened in Yaowanggou.

House spirits love cleanliness, and when they encounter unclean things, they will find ways to clean them up, so house cultivators must also take care of the house diligently.

There was a housekeeper in Yaowanggou. He was very slovenly. He didn't clean up the house. He didn't wash his face, bathe, hair, wash clothes, or take care of his beard and hair. He was always dirty.

The house spirit tolerated it, and often helped him wash his clothes, wipe his face, cut his hair, and keep him tidy.

But this man was unrepentant. Not only was he sloppy, but he also brought a group of sloppy friends and lived in the house for several days.

Without the permission of the house spirit, outsiders were not allowed to live in the house. These people also made the house a mess. The house spirit was angry and one night, he killed the cultivator and a group of friends, leaving no one alive! "

Qin Xiaopang shivered. He was usually a bit sloppy: "Then what happened to this house spirit?"

"He stayed in the house and became an evil spirit. He is still causing harm to people to this day."

"No one cares about this?"

"Who cares? There are so many evil spirits, how can anyone care about this?"

…

Listening to Ma Wu and Qin Xiaopang chatting, Li Banfeng fell into deep thought.

Which door should I choose?

Is this important?

Very important, to save lives.

According to the salesman, if you don't enter the Taoist gate after shining the light from the sky, you will definitely die.

But as long as you choose a Taoist sect at random, won't your life be saved?

Isn't the purpose of my trip here to save people? Is it important to choose a Taoist sect?

Of course it’s important!

How rare this opportunity is!

I have offended the people from the Dark Star Bureau. They said they would kill me. If I want to survive, I must learn some real skills to save my life!

More importantly, there is also the great dream of reaching the tenth level of cultivation!

"Good things are good things, bad things are bad things, it's that simple." Li Banfeng murmured to himself.

Qin Xiaopang didn't hear clearly: "Brother Li, what good and bad things did you say?"

Li Banfeng did not answer.

The thing in front of you is a good thing. No matter how many additional factors there are, it is a good thing to be able to gain extraordinary power and a long life.

Choosing a Taoism that suits you is the best thing among good things.

Which door is suitable?

I know too little about these sects.

"What skills do cultivators of various sects have?"

"This is complicated," Ma Wu said, "Martial arts cultivators can fight, literary cultivators know how to scold, travel cultivators know how to run, food cultivators have enough to eat and drink, and they have skills and strength."

Qin Xiaopang added: "Huanxiu can do it ten times a day, it's nothing to worry about!"

Ma Wuyi smiled: "It's not just this skill, Huan Xiu is good at disturbing people's minds."

"Where's the home repairman?"

Ma Wudao: "The house cultivator is both offensive and defensive. It depends on the temperament of the house spirit. Outside the house, the house cultivator has average combat power among the same floors. Inside the house, the house cultivator has invincible combat power among the same floors, and even across borders. After passing one level, you still have the strength to fight!”

Is the home repairer so strong?

How about choosing home repair?

The money can be returned to Houqiu later, but where can I buy this house?
