Becoming a fox fairy from Liaozhai

Chapter 72
Life is short, I am born long.

Gong Mengbi couldn't help being moved, but also heartbroken for Granny Shi's cheerfulness and open-mindedness.

Gong Mengbi felt reluctant: "When I see my mother-in-law, it's like seeing an elder... No, my mother-in-law is closer than my elders."

Granny Shi was very happy: "You follow them to call me mother-in-law, and I am also happy. You are a good seedling who seeks immortals and asks questions. Handing over the annotations of the Seventh Cultivation of Sutras to you will not make it dusty. If he is alive, he will certainly like you."

Gong Mengbi said sadly: "I suffer from short days, but my mother-in-law said the days are long. With an elder like you, how can I be willing?"

Granny Shi smiled: "You are so young, why can't you see clearly than an old man like me? Life and death are yin and yang, which is a very common thing. If the days are short, you have to live in a place where you can shine. When you can fly, you can fly. If you want to see more and fly farther, then you should be sincere in your Taoism, so as to stand shoulder to shoulder with the heaven and the earth, and swim with the dragon."

"There is no need to grieve over life and death, nor to suffer from short days and long nights."

Granny Shi looked at his expression, reached out and patted his head, treating him as her own son and grandson, and said: "I haven't walked that fast yet, I've done the math, and I can live for at least three months."

Gong Mengbi counted the time, and smiled sadly: "Okay, all the little foxes will be able to enter the fox yard by then, and mother-in-law doesn't have to worry about it."

Granny Shi said: "I don't care about it, but you, don't be trapped by this matter, you have to keep your mind alive, that's how you look like a fox."

Gong Mengbi laughed, and then talked a lot with Granny Shi.

Most of the time, Granny Shi is talking and Gong Mengbi is listening.

Granny Shi told some stories about her and the old man Qixiu, such as in a certain place where she built a hut for cultivation, and what treasures she buried, such as in a certain place, she saw some flowers, which were amazingly beautiful, but the old man Qixiu I love flowers, and I am afraid that the seeds will not survive after being transplanted, so I just stay there.

It wasn't until night that Grandma Shi drove him away.

Gong Mengbi didn't force her to stay, her mother-in-law was open-minded and transparent, if he treated her with sadness and reluctance, it would be a kind of disturbance in itself.

Gong Mengbi didn't want to do this.

So he went back to Shouyue Tower, sat in front of the Goddess of Mount Tai, and prayed, hoping that Granny Shi could go through this journey safely, and also hoped that after her death, Granny Shi's well-being would continue, whether she was a ghost or reincarnated, everything would go smoothly.

Only by chatting with Taishan Empress did he settle down.

After her mind settled down, Gong Mengbi worshiped the moon and practiced like in the past.

Restricted by the celestial phenomena, the Qi of the Taiyin will not be cut off, but it will become tortuous and obscure.

Then, let’s look at the annotations on citing scriptures of Seven Cultivators.

Qixiu cited scriptures and annotations, which describe the practice method of the old man of Qixiu.

The old man of seven cultivators became a monk in Qingxu Temple and entered Taoism, and what he practiced was the Taoism of Qingxu Temple.

But in this record, of course, it is not the way of practicing Qingxu Guan, neither the old man of seven cultivators nor Granny Shi will steal people's inheritance like this.Otherwise, this silk book is not helping people to practice, but helping people form bad ties and hatred.

However, although there is no record of the Taoism of the Contemplation of the Clear and the Void in the written record, the old man of Qixiu summarized the practice of the Contemplation of the Clear and the Void in just a few words: those who purify the void are enlightened by the sky, and those who do nothing are governed by eternity.

Then, using this as the general outline, he dissected his own practice.

Those who are pure and empty are emptiness and space, and they are in harmony with the spirit and nature of the old man of the seven cultivators, which is called penetrating and penetrating.

The old man Qixiu cites Taoist scriptures and his own insights to explain his practice.

This silk script looks like the size of a handkerchief, and when it is unfolded, golden characters dance like a cloud cover.

It can be seen that the practice of the old man of Qixiu is constantly improving. The same practice, which was previously considered to be the Qingxu Qi that leads to the sky, will be crossed out from now on, and it will be said to be the Qingxu Qi that guards the spirit.

Apart from practicing, Gong Mengbi could even see the fragments about Granny Shi.

For example, when talking about the seven virtues, use gorgeous rhetoric and graceful words to praise the beauty of flowers, wine, poetry and tea, the beauty of painting and tuning, and praise the mystery of imitating objects to express affection, liberate from toil, and keep one's mind and mind.

But in addition to these six things, the virtue of the fox is added, but there are only two sentences: the fox is so beautiful and auspicious, and she is so touching and sincere.

This should have been added after meeting Granny Shi for a while, and after that, it changed from six cultivations to seven cultivations.

Between the lines of the silk script, there is sometimes a drawn fox footprint, and sometimes a fox tail.

In the comments that were revised later, Meng Gu said what and how, and I think it is quite right.

What Menggu said, I think it might not be good, but I am too embarrassed to tell her.

Gong Mengbi finished reading the silk book with a smile. In the end, he didn't remember the practice method written in the silk book, but the love story between old man Qixiu and Granny Shi was read over and over again.

Gong Mengbi was envious and happy at the same time, and had to read the silk book again, pay close attention to the cultivation method inside, sort out the cultivation method, and finally compiled it into a volume of excerpts from the Seven Cultivators.

As for the original silk book, it is not easy to read it too much, it is worth collecting and telling it to future generations as a story.

Excluding the very attractive love part, the old man of Qixiu is also very good at cultivation.

Fake things express love, fake heaven and earth exist.It has extraordinary ingenuity for cultivating the spirit and polishing the soul, and it fits well with the Tongtian method.

Gong Mengbi learned from each other's strengths and made up for his weaknesses, and joined forces with Tongtian Fa to improve his own practice and practice Tongtian Fa more deeply.

Gong Mengbi was leaning upstairs, leaning on the railing, looking up at the sky with his head on his hands.

The eyelids are covered, but the feeling of the body and the voice in the ear are clearer.

Looking at the changes in the clouds in the sky with half-closed eyes, it seemed that he could detect the aggregation and flow of water vapor in it.

But he had other things on his mind.

Granny Shi's birthday is approaching, and there is a very real problem to face - the tiger.

In the end, Granny Shi stayed at Ruyun Peak to frighten the tiger and make him fearful.

The old man Qixiu left Granny Shi a secret to making tigers. Tigers may be afraid of this secret, so they have never dared to appear in front of Granny Shi.

But is the tiger afraid of Grandma Shi?Not afraid at all.He dared to send ghosts to warn Granny Shi.

Perhaps over the years, he has found a way not to be coerced by the secret. At least this secret may not kill him, but it still threatens him.

This can be felt from Granny Shi's words.

The tiger is Granny Shi's heart knot and regret. After she passed away, of course no one cares about it, but she always remembers it.

In addition, once Granny Shi passed away, the tiger became a problem he needed to face.

This ambitious monster will not let the eastern corner of Longpan Mountain fall into the hands of Gong Mengbi. This land, and even the monsters in the land, have long been regarded as his possessions.

Gong Mengbi built the mansion in Wuhuan Peak, how can he move when he says he wants to move, or run away when he wants to?
Where did you move and where did you move, where did you escape and where did you escape?
If he can walk, can the Red Feathered Snake, Jin Chan, Wangxiang, Bird Fairy, Sanqian Ghost and Yasha Ghost also be able to walk?

Gong Mengbi's paws were clasped on the railing, tapping lightly one after another, thinking about the solution.

　It's next Friday, March 3th, and it's still a few days away.
