Looking at the heavy snow falling outside the window, Xu Zhengdao, who had been back to the mountain for a few days, was very lucky to have stocked up on daily necessities before the snow started falling. If he had really waited for the heavy snow to fall and wanted to go to the city and go back to the mountain, he would have spent more money.

Time and energy.

The first time he entered the city to complete the transaction with Liu Daneng, Xu Zhengdao did not stay in the city for long. After buying some things, he took the first bus in the afternoon and left the city. Unlike other people who yearned to stay in the city, he seemed to enjoy the carefree mountains and forests more.

pleasure.

Sometimes thinking about this mentality, Xu Zhengdao would complain to himself: "I have been living in the mountains for a long time, and my brain has become funny!"

But he knew in his heart that no matter in his past life or in this life, he seemed to prefer to deal with plants and animals than with people. Even though some animals in the jungle are also very cunning, their wisdom is still not enough in front of humans!

The heavy snowfall that lasted for several hours still failed to change the color of the jungle. But Xu Zhengdao believed that if the snow was given some more time, Yunwu Mountain would soon be covered in silver. By then, the jungle would have a different scenery.

Standing in front of the door, feeling the biting cold wind outside, Xu Zhengdao said helplessly: "For a person who originally lived in the south to suddenly become a native of the north. Just wanting to get used to the winter in the north is really hard.

so hard!"

Compared with people living in the city, it is difficult for people like Xu Zhengdao who live outside the city to enjoy the benefits of central heating in winter. For people who do not enjoy this benefit, the only way to survive the long winter is

Rely on your own efforts.

Fortunately, the doors and windows are closed tightly. The rock house, which is already warm in winter and cool in summer, only needs to raise the fire bed that was built earlier, and it is still very warm to stay in the house. After the heavy snow closes the mountain, most of the villagers at the foot of the nearby mountain begin to stay.

Cat winter at home.

But for Xu Zhengdao, practicing Sanfu in the summer and Sanjiu in the winter are also indispensable practices. As far as his current physical fitness is concerned, although he cannot be immune to the cold and heat, he can withstand the heat better than many ordinary people.

freeze.

Xu Zhengdao, who was meditating indoors in the early hours of the morning, still silently said 'sign in today' as usual. The reason why he meditates at this time every day is mostly due to the purple energy coming from the east when the yin and yang of heaven and earth meet.

"Signed in for the nine hundred and ninety-sixth day, there is no shortcut to practice, only perseverance! God's blessings will help you practice. I will give you ten strands of spiritual energy, an ancient prescription for body-building medicinal bath, five Qi-tonifying pills, and four taels of grain silver!

"

Listening to the benefits granted by the system in his mind, Xu Zhengdao couldn't help but murmured: "It seems that I have good luck today. I finally got a small blow after signing in for so long. I'm afraid there aren't many of these ancient medicinal bath recipes and elixirs in existence today."

?”

Thinking of the three years of continuous practice, he has been stuck in the stage of refining qi and transforming into spirit. In this stage, there are actually three realms, namely, rotating illumination, consecration, and fusion. After completing this stage of practice, you can enter the stage of refining qi and transforming into spirit.

According to the cultivation concepts instilled in the system, refining qi and transforming it can be called the stage of qi training and foundation building. In the stage of refining qi and transforming into spirit, you can practice the Taoist golden elixir. As the saying goes, 'when you swallow a golden elixir, you will know your fate.

It’s not up to Heaven, we can see the mystery of the Golden Elixir Realm.

But in terms of the current practice environment, Xu Zhengdao finally understood why the master, who was originally a Taoist priest, eventually chose to practice ancient martial arts. The reason is that this world is no longer suitable for Taoist practice.

To put it bluntly, Xu Zhengdao had read in an online novel in his previous life what was said in an online novel, "the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is exhausted", which is the reason why monks withered in the Age of Dharma. His ability to become a monk was due more to the spiritual energy given to him every day by the sign-in system.

Without the help of spiritual energy to practice, there would be no difference between a monk and a fish without water!

Although he dare not say that he may be the only cultivator in the world, which is what the master calls Xuanxiu. But Xu Zhengdao dares to assert that in the future, practitioners who have the opportunity to become Xuanxiu will probably become increasingly rare.

Looking at the qi-replenishing pill poured out of the jade bottle, Xu Zhengdao wanted to swallow one to help him practice. However, he thought that he was not far from the peak of the fusion realm. If he wanted to break through to the stage of refining qi and becoming a god, he might need to

Backed by massive spiritual energy.

In this case, swallowing pills for daily practice seems a bit luxurious, and it is easy to develop laziness in practice. After a little entanglement, Xu Zhengdao finally put the pills back into the jade bottle, and then began to absorb spiritual energy and nutrients.

Dantian meridians.

"If I want to break through the stage of refining and transforming energy, I need to complete the foundation building. Only by building a solid foundation for practice can I go further on the path of practice in the future. Don't be impatient. You have been waiting for three years. Do you still care about the remaining time?

"

After comforting himself, Xu Zhengdao began to meditate and refine his Qi. The cold wind howling outside was also blocked outside. Even the snowflakes flying in the sky would hardly leave any traces in front of the rock house.

When Xu Zhengdao woke up from practicing in the morning, he immediately pushed open the closed wooden window. When the window was pushed open, a stream of cold air flowed into the house along the window, making people shiver instantly.

.

But for Xu Zhengdao, who has made great progress in cultivation, this coldness is not enough to make him shiver. On the contrary, looking at the silver-covered jungle outside the window, he feels that the jungle is extremely beautiful at this moment.

"Even if you can see this kind of jungle snow scene countless times in a year, the first time is always refreshing!"

Although the cold current pouring into the house took away the heat, it also made the air inside the house much fresher. Looking at the snowflakes still falling, Xu Zhengdao felt that the first snow in Kyoto this year was indeed earlier and heavier than in previous years.

Thinking of this, Xu Zhengdao began to shake his head and said: "The first snow in 1980 came earlier than in previous years. They say that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, so next year will be another good harvest. This is actually quite good!

"

Even if he lives alone in the mountains, Xu Zhengdao still knows how to entertain himself and strive to fill his life with more fun. In this rock house where he lives, he does not have to hide any emotions and maintains a positive and optimistic attitude to live every day.

After a simple wash, Xu Zhengdao started to be busy in the kitchen again. Even if he lives alone, he still maintains the habit of eating three meals a day, and he also tries to make himself full and well-fed. This is one of the few pleasures in life during leisure time.

one.

"I'm not cooking porridge today, so I'm going to make multigrain pancakes to improve my meal. I'm going to spread out the multigrain pancakes, fry two poached eggs and bacon slices to enrich the texture, add a few slices of homegrown lettuce, and serve with homemade chili sauce. I'm sure it will taste great!

"

Cooking every day is also an essential part of Xu Zhengdao's reclusive life. Choosing what to eat and what to cook all depends on his mood. However, compared to northerners who prefer pasta, he, who was a southerner in his previous life, prefers rice.

When he went to the city to purchase daily necessities, most of the money he earned from selling wild boars was converted into rice and flour. In this era, these two grains are considered fine grains, and their prices are more expensive than corn, sweet potatoes and other coarse grains.

.

Maybe Zhengdao feels that if you live alone in the mountains, you shouldn't feel wronged by anyone. Furthermore, apart from spending money on food, there are very few other things that require money in the mountains.

To put it simply, in addition to spending money to enter the city, staying in this remote mountain with few people, he had no place to spend any money he wanted!

When the self-made multi-grain pancakes were served, Xu Zhengdao opened his mouth wide and took a big bite. He started chewing and felt that the multi-grain pancakes tasted quite good. The multi-grain pancakes he sold would have to be set up as a street stall, and most people would not be able to afford them.

With eggs, meat, and vegetables that are rare in winter, such a set of multi-grain pancakes would cost less than one yuan, so Xu Zhengdao was determined to lose money. Thinking of this, Xu Zhengdao, who was eating pancakes, couldn't help but giggle.

Just after finishing breakfast, Xu Zhengdao thought for a while and looked at the jungle covered with heavy snow: "I'd better go out later and see my monkey cubs. In this weather, all the monkeys are probably hiding in their caves.

Let’s see if we can get something good out of you!”

Xu Zhengdao stood at the door and muttered to himself. He quickly put on his homemade rabbit fur hat and gloves, then put on his homemade bear fur coat and long plush leather boots. After being fully armed, he closed the door tightly and left the rock house.
