Health Martial Saints: Start with soaking your feet

Chapter 74 Seventy-Four: Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect Martial Arts Zen
The next morning.

A thick layer of fog filled the mountains.

The sky was bright, and the three of them had already left the city.

As soon as he went up the mountain, he opened up at full speed, running like flying in the mist.

Faintly saw a few figures following behind in the clouds and mist.

"Someone is following."

Li Suian reminded.

Hong Ducheng said: "The environment in the mountains is complicated, there are always some smart people who want to guard the entrance and do some business without money, but they don't know that it is the way to death. Let's speed up and get rid of it."

"Brother Li, can you still keep up?"

Li Suian raised his eyebrows, "You can go faster."

Hong Ducheng stopped talking, and the two brothers speeded up silently, moving straight forward, flying out like a cannonball and then falling far away.Li Suian suspected that they learned their agility from the Hulk, or why their jumping ability was so amazing.

Li Suian's figure flickered, occasionally waiting for them in front.

The two were amazed, but they wisely didn't ask any more questions.

The three of them quickly disappeared from the pursuers behind them, and they were so annoyed, "It's that kid from last night, there are only three of them...they ran fast!"

Running wildly in the mountains, gradually entering the Canopy Mountains.

The nearby snow peaks are taller than each other, a fascinating ice and snow wilderness, the perennial snow and the glaciers hanging on the cliffs are in different poses and with different poses. A majestic, majestic, solemn and holy beauty.

"Ow~"

With a howl, the snow fell down with a rustle.

The team paused, "It's the snow ape, let's bypass it."

"Woo~"

With a whimper, the glacier shook violently a few times.

The team stopped again, "It's an iceberg monster, keep your voice down, let's slowly bypass it."

"Huh~"

A gust of wind blew up above the head, accompanied by intermittent roars, which were clearly explosions breaking through the sound barrier.

Li Suian took the initiative to stop, and as expected, Hong Ducheng whispered: "Get into the ice cave, it's the ice falcon!"

Before I knew it, I ran for another day.

After spending so much effort just to catch a few fish, Li Suian felt a little uneasy, feeling that it was not easy to make money.

Fortunately, before nightfall, we finally reached our destination.

Turning around in a dark blue tunnel of ten thousand years of ice, and finally appearing in a huge cave hidden in the glacier.

The scope of the karst cave is not very large, and it looks like a big footprint when viewed from a height.The roof of the cave is filled with stalactites that have accumulated for many years, covered with a deep ice layer, and the skylight is transmitted through the transparent ice layer, as if skylights have been opened, so that the cave is not dark.

Moreover, the climate in the cave is obviously much higher than the outside world, warm as spring, with clusters of flowers and entangled green plants and vines.There are also large trees that are very different from the outside world, and even the vegetation has many types that the outside world can't see at all.Huge mushrooms emerged from cracks in the stones and grew into fossils in corners where the light did not reach.

The situation here is quite similar to the world in the center of the earth in "Journey to the Center of the Earth".

Li Suian looked left and right, but he couldn't see any signs of pigfish here.

"This is the legendary Mount Lu? It doesn't look like it will thunder."

Unexpectedly, the Hong family brothers smiled triumphantly at him, and after pushing aside a mess of vines, an ancient root tree of unknown age was revealed.The ancient tree withered and died, died and reborn, and the intricate air roots broke through the frozen soil, climbed up the rock, and wrapped a huge boulder in it.

Take a closer look.

Where is this boulder? It is clearly a huge sitting cross-legged stone Buddha statue.

Most of the body of the Buddha statue has been pushed into the ground, and the exposed upper body has been wrapped in layers of tree roots, and only half of the face is looming through the gaps between the trees and vines.

And at the foot of the stone statue, there is a spring-like pool with water flowing out continuously. The water flows all the way down, scattered into several cobweb-like streams, making the sound of clear springs, and it is unknown where it will eventually flow into. In the ice cave.

"Brother Li, would you like to touch the water?"

Li Suian realized something was wrong early on. There was no ice around the spring, and there were no weeds except for the vines. It must be a hot spring.

He stretched out his hand, and it was really hot, and there was a strong numbness like electric shock, which instantly hit his whole body.

Seeing that he was electrocuted and the two brothers succeeded in playing a prank, they immediately laughed.

Li Suian was shocked for a while, and he was a little happy. He began to believe that there would be pigs here.

But the further downstream, the more vines took root in the water.Some of the purple vines are particularly eye-catching, Li Suian took a closer look.

[Lei Teng: Human level spiritual root.It was originally an ordinary green vine, which absorbed the thunder water containing the origin energy of heaven and earth all the year round, and finally caused a transformation. After 30 years of fruiting, the thunder fruit produced has the effect of quenching the body and can improve the resistance to trace lightning. 】

"Do you guys know the root of this vine?"

Seeing that he noticed the vine, the two brothers looked at each other, Da Hong smiled and said: "You really noticed it, but Brother Li met our brother a little later, there were a few rotten fruits on the vine, which were already taken by the two of us. One of them was eaten. It was by eating this fruit that we completed the body tempering master."

"So that's how it is. This is your brother's chance. It is thanks to you that I am able to come here today."

Seeing that his eyes were clear and there was no greed, Hong Ducheng felt a little more certain in his heart, and said with a smile: "I said, don't be too polite, we will stay here for many days."

"Haha, I, Li Suian, am 28 this year. I am the only son in my family. I don't have any brothers or sisters. Brother Da Hong is 25 years old this year, and Brother Er Hong is 23 years old. How old are I? Call me Big Brother Li or Old Li, but I will recognize you two as younger brothers, can I call you Da Hong and Er Hong?"

"Isn't that how it is now?"

Hong Ducheng smiled and said: "Although our brothers are sometimes stupid, our old lady will recognize people. People recognized by her old man are not so bad even if they are bad. What's more, Brother Li is more capable than we imagined." , this brother admits, or we take advantage of it."

Li Suian was slightly surprised, and said with a smile: "Auntie still has this ability?"

Hong Dubao interrupted and said, "That's not right!"

"In the past, many people approached our brother, including partnerships and businesses, but none of them could escape her old man's eyes. She could tell whether it was loyalty or treachery, good or bad, with just one glance, but always It’s like pretending you don’t know anything.”

Li Suian was really surprised this time.

"Great courage is like cowardice, great wisdom is like foolishness."

The ancients had long seen through the highest state of being a human being.

What is the wisdom of being humble and humble?He obviously knows everything, but he has a stupid expression on his face.

There is really no need to ask about some things, because when you look back, all the details are the answers.

Recalling all the previous actions to curry favor with the old lady, I really felt like wielding a sword in front of Guan Gong.

Ginger is still old and spicy. This is not a special skill, but a clear-eyed and well-informed person.Many old people have this kind of knowledge.But it is not a skill for young people to listen to the old people's advice.

Fortunately, Li Suian really has no bad intentions.

At this moment, Hong Dubao muttered, "Brother Li, can you stop calling me Erhong and call me Dabao Ducheng."

"Stop talking nonsense, second child, let's respect the Buddha first!"

Hong Dubao turned serious when he heard the words, instead he lit a few sticks of sandalwood first, kowtowed respectfully to the stone Buddha and burned incense to pay homage to the Buddha.

Li Sui watched them quietly without disturbing them.

After a long while, the worship to the Buddha was finished.

Hong Ducheng said: "Be prepared first, this is not something that can be harvested in a day or two. There is a stone house over there, which was dug out by our brothers. There is everything in it. Let's put the things down first."

The rhizomes of petrified mushrooms were hollowed out to make stone houses.

There are also stone beds and other things inside, apparently living here before.

There are even firewood and stoves.

Fish catching tools are also readily available.

It was already dark, and the bright stars in the sky could still be seen faintly.

Don't worry about encountering ghosts and evil spirits here.

Even idle monsters can't find this place at all, it really is a hidden place.

After nightfall, even under the light of stars, the Hong family brothers still lit lanterns to shine on the Yongquan.

Li Suian watched them skillfully use red worms and red-backed golden flower worms as bait, set up fishing traps, and soon the fish were caught in the nets.

Da Hong violently retracted the net, and the pig fish violently resisted, stirring up a whirlpool.

Er Hong slammed his stick into the water, knocking the pig fish unconscious.

Fish get +1.

"So you got caught?" Li Suian couldn't believe it.

"if not."

Hong Ducheng said: "There is no easier hunting than this. Even the pigfish gushing out of this pool is limited every day. It is impossible to catch more pigfish at once. Let's eat it first tonight. "

Li Suian said: "Don't waste it, leave the fish to me. I brought a lot of monster meat."

He found that he was useless, whether he came or not, it was the same.

Perhaps the biggest gain of this trip was seeing the Black Stone Collection and really getting to know the two wise and foolish Hong family brothers.

Straight depressed to prepare dinner.

He brought a complete set of ingredients, and made a simple meal of roasted eight-grade Wutujiao beef, which also made the two brothers eat their faces full of oil. They praised him as worthy of being a restaurant owner. All meals are given to him.

Li Suian rolled his eyes and asked, "Have you ever thought about where these fish come from?"

"Of course I did."

Hong Ducheng said: "It is said that at the peak of the Tianpeng Mountains, there is a Tianchi Lake that is comparable to a fairyland on earth. The water in the Tianchi Lake extends in all directions, covering most of the snow-capped mountain area. There are various spirit fish in it, and pig fish is one of them. I guess this spring The spring is one of the Tianchi water systems."

"How did you discover this hidden valley?"

"You haven't practiced Buddhist skills, so you don't know the secrets. In fact, this stone Buddha is spiritual. At that time, our brother was being chased by a group of snow apes. It was the Bodhisattva who guided us to find this place. And beside the Buddha statue, the Buddha's infinite vajra strength we practice is also very efficient."

"Oh, you are practicing the immeasurable vajra strength of Longxiang Temple, so your body protection martial art is 'Vajra Clothes'?"

"Yes. We can also be regarded as lay disciples from the outer sect of Longxiang Temple."

Li Suian became interested, walked over, and concentrated on watching the Buddha statue for a long time, but there was no movement.

Stretching out his hand to touch the Buddha statue, a text bubble floated out after a while.

[Stone Buddha: Carved by the Kudu Bodhisattva in the Buddhist Temple, it contains the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's dharma, martial arts and Zen, to suppress the entrance of the space and prevent the invasion of foreign demons...]

Walter? !
Before Li Suian finished the book, his hands trembled in fright, and he ran a long way away.
