Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 80
When the night sky completely calmed down tonight, Li Lijun finally finished the last round of qi circulation, and was delighted to find that his cultivation base had advanced to the third level of qi refining.

She hastily practiced the mental method twice more, so as to consolidate the results of tonight.

No wonder "Sun, Moon and Nebula Jue" is so dependent on luck, some people in the Nebula Immortal Sect still regard it as a major skill, and in history, two people have ascended to the ascension by relying on it!It does require a lot of personal luck, and if no special astronomical phenomenon is encountered, progress will be slow.But once you encounter uncommon astronomical phenomena, such as meteors or meteor showers, you will immediately make rapid progress.

There are always meteor showers of different constellations several times a year, solar and lunar eclipses, etc., and there will always be one or two encounters every few years or ten or ten years.The high-level comprehension world where Xingyun Xianzong is located - Ziwei Great World, there are many sects, there are not a few practitioners who study astronomy and astrology, and the life span of practitioners is relatively long, hundreds of thousands of years old at every turn, there is always someone who can patiently summarize Find out the laws of various astronomical phenomena, and infer the approximate time when the next phenomenon will appear.What can be done in the world of modern science may not be impossible in the world of cultivation.As long as you make good use of this information, are you afraid that you won't be able to practice the "Sun Moon Nebula Jue"?

Li Lijun's confidence in the future has greatly increased.

Although there are so many shooting stars tonight, she has only advanced to one level, but she is already very satisfied.After all, she has only just started practicing, so laying a good foundation is the most important thing, so don't be impatient.What's more, the Taurus meteor cloud will last from September to November. She stares at it every night, is she afraid that she won't be able to squeeze the wool a few more times?

Speaking of which, which constellations of meteor showers can be seen in the northern sky in autumn and winter?

In the middle of the night, Li Lijun stood in the autumn wind, looked up at the sky, with an expectant smile on his face.

The window of the guest room behind her creaked and opened slightly, and then Erhong's surprised voice: "Little lady! Why are you up in the middle of the night?!" She closed the window, put on a coat and ran out of the room in a hurry , "Little lady, it's so windy outside, what are you doing out there? Call yourself a slave if you have something to do."

Li Lijun looked back at her, blinked, his heart moved slightly, and asked: "Didn't you see it?"

"See what?" Erhong was at a loss.

Li Lijun looked back at the direction of the sky again, as if there was really something there, suddenly let out a light exclamation, took a few steps forward, then slowly raised his head, his gaze was higher and farther, as if seeing off who leaves.

Erhong felt goose bumps on her back: "Little... little lady? What are you looking at? Is there anything in the sky?"

Li Lijun turned around and smiled at her: "It's nothing, I was wrong."

This is clearly not a "wrong look".Erhong became more and more frightened, and wanted to ask more clearly, but Li Lijun had already returned to the house, drank some water, and was about to fall asleep again.

Erhong waited busy to tuck the quilt for her, put down the gauze curtain again, and went back to sleep on the floor bunk where she was on duty full of doubts.

For the rest of the night, Erhong couldn't sleep well.When she got up early the next morning, the little lady had already woken up at some point, she had combed her hair, and was sitting on the steps in front of the house, staring at the yard in a daze.She hurriedly got up and dressed, and ran over to apologize to the little lady: "You are late, why don't you call me a slave?"

Li Lijun raised her head and smiled at her: "Anyway, there is nothing serious to do. You worked hard yesterday, so sleep a little longer if you want to sleep."

Erhong said angrily, "That's not possible. The slave still has to serve the little lady!" She asked her if she had washed, and when she found out that she hadn't, she hurriedly called for someone to boil water.

When the little lady had washed and washed and sat down to have breakfast, Erhong took a chance and pulled Nanny Cui into a corner to talk, and told her about the strange things that happened in the middle of the night last night, and said: "The little lady was very nice at that time. He looked like he saw someone, and wondered if I hadn’t seen it... I sounded terrified, could it be that this inn is not clean and might be haunted?”

Mother Cui couldn't help becoming serious when she heard this: "I have never heard such a thing mentioned by the shopkeeper, nor did I mention it when others were chatting. At most, they only said that the Temple of the Holy Mother in Yaoshan is very effective. But it has nothing to do with hauntings. For no reason, how could the little lady see a ghost?!"

Erhong hugged herself with some fear: "That's not sure... Isn't there a bridge tomb nearby? There are many ghosts in the tomb..."

Nanny Cui spat at her: "Nonsense! All those buried in the bridge tomb are nobles, or our little lady's blood elders! Why would they come to scare my little lady when they have nothing to do?!"

Erhong didn't think that the "ghost" was trying to scare Li Lijun, because the latter's expression was very calm last night, as if he was just chatting with her.If she hadn't woken up unexpectedly and found that the little lady was not in the room, and heard the sound of clothes making the wind outside, so she opened the window to check, she would not have found that the little lady was seeing a "ghost" in the yard.

She thought for a while, and came up with an idea: "The ghost that the little lady saw...could it be a lady? Otherwise, how could the little lady not be afraid at all? She is still so young..."

Nanny Cui wanted to refute that it was impossible, but she swallowed the words hesitantly.Recently, there has been a heir princess Chen's apparition in the palace of the Sui Dynasty, who exposed the conspiracy of the evil concubine Xiao Yang. The more she heard, the more she felt it was true. It was just that the heir did not allow anyone to discuss this matter, so she kept silent That's all.But in her heart, she actually had a glimmer of expectation: What if it was true?Then can she see the lady again?
With such thoughts in mind, Mother Cui hesitated and said, "Either... let's ask the little lady? If the lady really appeared, we would also like to ask her to see her and ask her if she is doing well down here? Do you know? Has the killer who killed her been brought to justice?" As she spoke, Nanny Cui burst into tears.Erhong also showed a mournful expression.

The two quickly reached a consensus and planned to ask Li Lijun directly.It's just that when they went to get Mrs. Shao, Mrs. Shao objected: "If it's really a lady, that's all right. The little lady probably didn't intend to hide it from us. It's just that Erhong can't see ghosts. She is afraid that we won't believe it. Just keep your mouth shut. But what if it's not the lady, but something else... If we ask rashly, will the little lady think of the lady and feel sad because she can't see her again?"

Nanny Cui and Erhong looked at each other, and immediately became entangled again.

In the end, the three of them agreed to see the situation tonight.If the "ghost" doesn't appear again, they will act as if nothing happened and never reveal a word to the outside world.

This night, not only did Erhong stay in Li Lijun's room on duty, but even Mrs. Shao and Nanny Cui were more vigilant than usual in the next room.In the middle of the night, when Li Lijun got up to go out, Erhong woke up first.

She first touched the wall and knocked a few times to notify Nanny Cui and Mrs. Shao next door, then the three of them simply put on their clothes, quietly walked out of the room, and soon found Li Lijun in the yard.

She was facing away from them, facing the shooting stars in the sky, and spread her arms under the moon, as if there was a faint light shining on her body, reflecting her white clothes, as if her whole body was shining. An indescribable sense of holiness.

Both Erhong and Mrs. Shao held their breath, for fear of disturbing anything, Mammy Cui knelt down silently, folded her hands together, and silently recited the Buddha.

After an unknown amount of time, there were no more shooting stars in the sky, and the white light on Li Lijun's body slowly disappeared.She slowly adjusted her breath while lowering her arms.

Then, she turned around, looked at the three confidants under the steps, and showed a meaningful smile.
