Chapter 18
This feeling.

Chen Yuan felt that he had slept for a long time.

In a daze, Chen Yuan saw beside the bed, Chang Kongzi came to see him, his master Lu Yan came to see him, and even Qin Jiangyue, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, also came to see him.

They were all calling themselves by the bedside.

Chen Yuan wanted to answer them, but found that he was weak and unable to speak.

Until this day, Chen Yuan opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

He found himself lying on the bed in the backyard room of Luxian Temple.

The sun was shining outside the house, and the dappled sunlight shone into the house through the gaps in the doors and windows and landed on the ground. The bright light made the whole room warm, and the air was filled with the smell of sunshine.

"How long have I been asleep?"

Chen Yuan was puzzled.

He wasn't sure how long he had slept, but he had the feeling that it would never be a short time before he fell asleep.

"The wine drunk at the banquet has really strong stamina."

Chen Yuan thought that when he left the City God's Hall, he was obviously not drunk, but pretended to be drunk, but when he was sent back by the God of Day and Night and the Four Gods of the Shackle General, he became drunk immediately, he said with a wry smile.

Feeling that the alcohol was gone, Chen Yuan got up and put on his Taoist robe, opened the door and walked out.

It was noon outside the house.

The sun was slanting westward, and it seemed that it had just passed noon.

There are still believers and pilgrims coming to offer incense in the main hall and in front of the gate of Luxian Temple.

But compared to before, there are far fewer believers and pilgrims, and they seem to be sparse.

The old Taoist priest Kongzi was sitting at the entrance of the main hall, behind a long square table, unwrapping the lottery for a very blessed-looking woman, who was wearing a brocade dress and gold ornaments.

Chang Kongzi held the signature in his hand, and said solemnly:

"This lottery is the upper lottery. The palace is Yingong, and the sign is written: It is very hard to want to win, and it is busy to fight for the wedding day. In the end, it is compared to an arrow. The nobleman guides the nobleman's hometown. This hexagram is a sign of blessing through misfortune, meaning In the event of a disaster, there are noble people who come forward to help, and listen to Madam's words, although there will be a small calamity for the husband, there will be no major disaster..."

After a few words, Chang Kongzi immediately smiled at the woman, and in addition to the original fee for releasing the sign, he also threw him a big reward.

After Chen Yuan looked at it for a while, he felt that it was not interesting, so he didn't look at it any more.

He looked around and found that the appearance of the gate of Lu Xian Temple had changed drastically.

Before he went out for the banquet, the seven peach trees that were in full bloom and were gradually withering had all withered at this time, leaving only bare branches without a single peach blossom on the tree.

When he woke up, he suddenly had a feeling that people are right and things are wrong.

"Fellow Daoist, are you awake?"

Just as Chen Yuan was standing at the entrance of the main hall, feeling a little overwhelmed, the old Taoist leader Kongzi's surprised voice came from beside him.

Chen Yuan stood at the entrance of the main hall for a long time, and Chang Kongzi found Chen Yuan, who was standing beside him watching him unwrap the lottery.

The old Taoist leader Kongzi hurriedly dismissed the woman with three or five words, and told the believers and pilgrims who needed to release the lottery later, saying that he had something to suspend the lottery, and then got up and walked in front of Chen Yuan.

"Old Taoist priest, how long have I been asleep?"

Chen Yuan asked Chang Kongzi.

"Fellow Daoist, exactly one month has passed since you went to the City God's Banquet last time and woke up today."

Chang Kongzi smiled wryly.

"I was drunk this time, and I was drunk for a month?"

Chen Yuan looked surprised.

He knew that he slept for a long time this time, but he didn't expect that he slept for such a long time.

"Fellow Daoist, you don't know how difficult my life was for the old Daoist during the time you were drunk."

"The lady who came to look for you turned out to be the daughter of the magistrate. In this month, the other party will come to the temple to look for you almost every few days to see if you are awake. By the way, tell the old man that you are awake. You must go to the city to inform her, the old Taoist ears can hear calluses."

The old Taoist Kongzi complained to Chen Yuan.

Only then did Chen Yuan realize that this was not his own illusion.

It was Qin Jiangyue who got the news that she lived in Luxian Temple from nowhere, so she came to look for herself.

"No, who told the prefect's daughter about me in Luxian Temple? No one told her that it was impossible to find her."

Chen Yuan looked at the old Taoist leader Kongzi, with suspicion in his expression, the meaning was self-evident.

Seeing that Chen Yuan had already guessed it, the old Taoist Kongzi looked a little embarrassed, so he told what happened after Chen Yuan went to the City God's Banquet that day and left Luxian Temple.

After finishing speaking, he said: "The old Taoist saw her anxious expression, and thought she was your good friend, Fellow Daoist, so he told her the news of your living in Lu Xian Temple, who knew that it caused a trouble."

Then the old Taoist leader Kongzi asked with a look of watching the excitement:

"What is the relationship between this lady from the magistrate's family and the fellow daoist? Why hasn't the daoist friend visited Lujiang City for so long? The lady from the magistrate's family has been looking for Daoists all the time. friend?"

Chen Yuan knew about this after hearing about it, and he couldn't blame the old Taoist priest for his lack of time.

He said: "Barely we can be regarded as good friends. The lady from the magistrate's family and I both encountered a demon in Qinghe County and almost died. We were rescued by Master afterward. It may be that the reason why the magistrate's family is in trouble Miss, treat me as a friend."

Only then did the old Taoist Kongzi suddenly understand why the lady from the magistrate's family has been looking for Chen Yuan.

Then the old Taoist priest said empty-handedly: "Since you are awake, why don't you go to Lujiang City and meet the lady from the magistrate's family?"

Chen Yuan shook his head: "No need, as you said, the other party will come to Luxian Temple once in a few days, and we will meet at last."

At this time, he was more worried, but in fact, it was what his master Lu Yan explained.

He said he was going to the City God's banquet, but he got drunk, but he slept for a month, which delayed his lectures and studies.

If he were replaced by Lu Yan, he would not spare his disciple lightly.

At this moment, the old Taoist leader Kongzi said again: "By the way, fellow daoist, Xu San, a craftsman a few days ago, also came to the temple to look for fellow daoist when he was drunk, but the old master didn't let him go into the backyard .”

Chen Yuan was puzzled: "Why did he come to me?"

He was originally on the street, seeing Xu San performing the stunt of "knocking on the frog to listen to the music", so he had the idea of ​​making friends with Xu San.

Who knew that the other party thought that he was greedy for his unique skill of "knocking the frog to listen to the music".

Since then, he has also talked about the idea of ​​making friends with this person.

Chang Kongzi said: "It seems that there is something and I need to ask fellow Taoist for help. I heard that fellow Taoist went to a banquet and was drunk for more than [-] days, so he left in a dazed state."

Chen Yuan replied: "I know."

He didn't take this matter to heart. Since he was drunk and asleep when the other party came, it proved that the other party had nothing to do with him.

After talking with Chang Kongzi for a while, Chang Kongzi continued to unwrap the lottery at the entrance of the main hall, and he turned back to the backyard.

"No, how did my cultivation improve so much all of a sudden?"

Back in the backyard, Chen Yuan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged. He was about to meditate and practice, but found that his cultivation had improved a lot. He opened his eyes, and a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes.

The vitality and essence in his body, which was originally incomparably full, was actually enhanced again.

It's not 01:30, but it's improved a lot all of a sudden.

It was so much that Chen Yuan felt that he had reached the limit of his body.

Now it is no longer enough to use the word "fullness" to describe it, but it can be called vigorous.

In addition, the vitality and essence in the body are no longer distinct, but have begun to blend together, showing signs of fusion.

"This is about to become a pill!"

Chen Yuan said in surprise.

He thought of what his master Lu Yan and Mr. Huo Long had told him.

The so-called Pill Embryo Realm means that Yuan Jing must be combined with Yuan Qi to turn it into a light, clear, and qualityless essence and energy, and then it will be refined into a Dan Embryo, also known as Gushen.

In the "Tao Te Ching" written by Laozi, the ancestor of Taoism, there is a saying that "the god of the valley is immortal, which is called Xuan Min".

Although he has already reached a great level of energy, but this is his sleepless cultivation for three years.

He originally thought that he would need at least a period of practice before he could reach the threshold of the Pill Embryo Realm.

Who knew that just because he went to a banquet, he woke up drunk and fell asleep for a month, not only did his cultivation base soar, but he also touched the threshold of the alchemy realm.

"I'm afraid that at the banquet, the wine brought out by the Lujiang City God is not ordinary wine."

Chen Yuan had a vague guess in his heart.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to get him drunk and let him sleep for a month.

Chen Yuan secretly kept this kindness in his heart.

"Since your cultivation base has risen sharply and you have touched the threshold of the Pill Embryo Realm, you should work harder to cultivate."

Chen Yuan secretly said in his heart.

Don't look at the city god's banquet, so many guests toasted to him, and they all spoke very politely, as if they wanted to make friends with him.

But Chen Yuan has self-knowledge, and that's only because of his reputation as an immortal disciple.

Not because of his own strength.

In fact, he had already felt it when he attended the banquet.

At the city god's banquet a month ago, his cultivation could only be regarded as the lowest level.

Only when you have cultivated into a pill, can you barely be regarded as the upper-middle class.

Among the gods who befriended him that day, except for Zhang Fude, the land lord of Qinghe County, the weaving lady, and the Nanshi Mountain God, they should all be the top existences in the state of spiritual cultivation.

As for holding a banquet, so many spiritual practitioners can be invited to join in, and the Lujiang City God should also be an existence with the same status as the Brocade Empress and Nanshi Mountain God.

Even if the cultivation base is not as good as these two gods, they still have the same level of strength as the brocade empress and Nanshi mountain god.

However, Chen Yuan did not underestimate himself.

Although his cultivation base is low, his cultivation time is short.

Those gods in the Pill Embryo Realm and Spirit Cultivation Realm have practiced for as little as two or three hundred years, and as many as five or six hundred years. How long has he been practicing?
He practiced like this until the evening, when Chang Kongzi called him to the front hall to finish his dinner, Chen Yuan had just returned to the backyard.

But he found a figure dressed like a scholar standing with a peony folding fan in the backyard under the moonlight.

It was Master Lu Yan.

"Master."

Chen Yuan walked up to Lu Yan and respectfully saluted Lu Yan as a teacher and apprentice.

Although I have made a breakthrough in my cultivation, it is an indisputable fact that I slept for a month after being drunk.

Chen Yuan was already prepared in his heart to be reprimanded.

Who knew that the disciple who looked at Lu Yan and bowed to him not only did not reprimand, but instead stroked his fan and said with a smile:
"That's right, you've been drunk for a month, not to mention that your cultivation has soared, but your vitality and energy have begun to blend together. It seems that your dandelion is about to be completed."
