Chapter 18 The Knight and the Lay
At this moment, the phone on Bai Wencheng rang. He quickly took out the phone and sneaked out of the siege of the third brother of the Xu family. Xu Laosan and the middle-aged beautiful woman called Bai Wencheng and then gave up.
At this time, Bai's mother's stern shout came from the phone, saying, "Bai Wencheng, where have you been? You haven't come back so late, are you looking for death? Didn't your teacher teach you that middle school students can't stay at night?"
"Mom!" Bai Wencheng's nose felt sore when he heard his mother's voice, and he couldn't control his emotions. It seemed that he had a life-and-death separation with his mother.
When Bai's mother heard it on the phone, she suddenly became nervous and said, "Wencheng, what's wrong with you? Don't scare mom. Where are you now? I'll ask someone to pick you up."
Bai Wencheng shook his head, wiped away the tears from his face, and said, "Mom, it's okay, I'm fine, but today the teacher at the school gave us a very touching family theme class. I felt a little touched when I heard your voice."
When Bai's mother heard this, she suddenly raised her voice and said, "Then why don't you come back quickly!"
Bai Wencheng casually made up a lie and made Bai's mother vacate it.
At this time, Ji Lianhai came over. It was probably because he heard Bai Wencheng talking to his mother. He immediately snatched his phone from Bai Wencheng and said, "My mother Bai? I am Bai Wencheng's principal, Ji Lianhai!"
When Bai's mother heard the voice, she immediately recognized Principal Ji and said, "Oh, it's Principal Ji, why are you next to Xiaobai? Xiaobai won't make you unhappy!"
Principal Ji immediately said, "Mom Bai, Xiaobai has performed well in school these days. I like him very much. During this period, I want Xiaobai to help me organize the lecture materials. He will stay with me tonight and will not go back."
When Bai's mother heard that Principal Ji wanted to leave Bai Wencheng as his helper, she couldn't help but feel happy and said, "Is that right? Principal Ji, that won't cause you trouble, right!"
Bai’s mother knew that Principal Ji was a very famous scholar in the local area. If Bai Wencheng could accept Principal Ji’s guidance, it would have a bright future!
Principal Ji said: "Of course not. Xiaobai is very capable. I like him very much!"
When Bai Wencheng heard that Ji Lianhai was going to keep him, he immediately knew that Mr. Xu was going to see him.
Sure enough, after Ji Lianhai returned the phone to Bai Wencheng, he said, "Wencheng, Mr. Xu wants to see you!"
Bai Wencheng did not resist and followed Ji Lianhai all the way to a study.
When Bai Wencheng opened the door, he immediately saw an extremely huge study room, filled with dense bookshelves. Each bookshelves was more than three people tall, and each grid was filled with books. And because these bookshelf were relatively high, those books on the highest level needed a ladder to take them off the bookshelf.
Under the innermost bookshelf, there is a floor-to-ceiling window. A man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, with his hands behind his back, Bai Wencheng and Principal Ji, which was Xu Jianqiu, the head of the Cai Xu family in Shitang.
Xu Jianqiu listened to the voice behind him and said, "Brother Bai, you are here!"
Bai Wencheng immediately saw Mr. Xu standing against the floor-to-ceiling window in the wind, his whole person was full of aura, and he was very energetic, especially like a tall king, with a momentum of dominating the world. This momentum was really different from the situation where he was dying on his sickbed.
At the same time, Bai Wencheng also saw a faint spiritual energy on Mr. Xu's body flowing slowly through the meridians around him. This feeling seemed particularly similar to that of an immortal cultivator. However, Bai Wencheng frowned because the aura of an immortal cultivator on Mr. Xu's body was a world of difference from the immortal cultivator he knew before.
The cultivator of immortals opens up the Ren and Du meridians, attracts the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body, and constantly cleanses the body, thus discovering its hidden potential, constantly breaking through oneself, improving one's cultivation, and achieving the state of unity between man and nature, immortality, and infinite combat power.
But Mr. Xu in front of him was obviously not such a person. Although there was still spiritual energy in his body, his Ren and Du meridians were not opened, and the spiritual energy in his body seemed to be forcibly poured into the meridians. In other words, Bai Wencheng had a very bold idea. Those spiritual energy seemed to grow naturally in Mr. Xu's body, but the amount was particularly small.
Thinking of this, Bai Wencheng couldn't help but frown. Could it be that there are really immortal cultivators on Earth, and they exist in this special way of cultivation?
It was at this moment that Xu Jianqiu turned around, looked at Bai Wencheng, and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Bai is also an immortal cultivator?"
Bai Wencheng's ears tightened. This was the first time he heard the name of "Immortal Cultivator" after he was reborn on Earth. Bai Wencheng thought for a while and said, "Why did the old man say this!"
When Xu Jianqiu heard this, he looked back at Ji Lianhai, looked at Ji Lianhai and smiled, saying, "Lianhai has told me the story briefly! Brother Bai doesn't have to be afraid, let alone be afraid of it when talking about cultivating immortals.
In recent years, we immortal cultivators have been discredited in China by some false immortal cultivators, truly superstitious people with ulterior motives, such as the Wheel**, the Absolute God, the Sect Association, etc., which have become disgraceful and even infamous, making many real immortal cultivators disheartened and turned underground, becoming veritable shelters.
However, this does not mean that we do not exist or disappear, so Brother Bai doesn’t have to worry about it here.”
When Bai Wencheng heard this, he blinked his eyes and thought in his heart that there were really immortal cultivators on earth.
Xu Jianqiu looked at Ji Lianhai again, and saw that Ji Lianhai did not speak, then said: "We immortals have to practice their muscles and bones through external skills, strengthen their bodies, and finally reach the realm of Yuanli to become true immortals; there are also methods of practicing Taoism that rely on talismans, elixirs, formations, and magic weapons to continuously gather the essence of heaven and earth in their bodies, and finally reach the Mahayana realm and become true immortals.
Our Chinese call the former martial arts, the latter the Taoist law, the martial arts practitioners call the knights, and the practitioners call the Taoist practitioners. I see Brother Bai now, like a layman who relies on the power of elixirs to gather a large amount of essence between heaven and earth and has entered the vast path of immortality."
Bai Wencheng listened to Mr. Xu's introduction and felt that the method of cultivating immortals mentioned by Mr. Xu was just a very rough and relatively low-level method of cultivation.
Like the so-called external kung fu of a knight, it is just a simple body tempering technique. The body tempering technique is actually just an auxiliary method for cultivators.
As for the cultivation methods of talismans, elixirs, formations, and magic weapons, although in the eyes of immortals, these methods are easy at first but difficult to follow. For example, it is basically difficult to go far with elixirs, and in an environment like the earth, it is actually impossible to get so many treasures of heaven and earth to refine elixirs.
Bai Wencheng estimated that the only elixirs on earth now are probably left over from the previous immortal civilization, but there are basically no elixirs who are refining the alchemy today.
