Leisurely Cultivation Time

Chapter 170

Chapter 170

After leaving Gao Jiancheng's house, Gao Yufang took Ye Fei and Xiao Yi up the mountain.

"Yufang, why does your uncle live on the mountain?" Ye Fei asked curiously.

Gao Yufang replied: "It seems that Uncle Yuan Yi's grandparents were all Taoists back then. Later, when the country took care of feudal superstition, everyone rejected Uncle Yuan Yi's family, so Uncle Yuan Yi moved to the mountains."

"The ancestors are all Taoists? Then do they have any magical skills?" Xiao Yi asked.

"I heard from my grandfather before that Uncle Yuan Yi's father was a very powerful person. He could communicate with the mountain god grandpa to let the mountain god bless the village with good harvests, and it worked every time. In the same way, the harvest in the village will be better every year. Other villages are better off two or three floors up."

After hearing Gao Yufang's words, Xiao Yi couldn't help showing a smile. It seems that Gao Yuanyi's ancestors might have been practitioners.

After a while, there were no houses around, and Gao Yufang was a little out of breath.

This Gao Yuan Yi live is remote enough, Xiao Yi squatted down and put Gao Meifang on his back, so the trip of the three of them was much faster.

After a while, the three of them walked halfway up the mountain, and finally saw a wooden house.

However, they feel that this wooden house looks a little special. Their structure is a concave-convex connection method used on two wooden components.

The ancient buildings in China basically use wood, bricks and tiles as the main building materials, and the wood frame structure as the main structural method, which is constructed of main components such as columns, beams, and purlins.

And the wooden house in front of them was also built in this way, which shows that apart from being a Taoist priest, Gao Yuanyi is not inferior to anyone else in terms of craftsmanship.

At this time, Xiao Yi suddenly became interested. The mortise and tenon structure is also an intangible cultural heritage of China. If he can learn such a skill, he will still be able to impress people in the future.

"Uncle Yuan Yi, we're here to see you." As soon as he reached the door of the wooden house, Gao Yufang called into the house.

"Who is it, who is here." An old voice came from the room.

"It's me, I'm Yufang, and I have two older brothers." Gao Yufang responded.

"It's Yufang, why did you come so far to see me, an old man?" Gao Yuanyi said with a smile, and walked out of the room.

It's just that when Gao Yuanyi saw Xiao Yi just after he came out of the room, his eyes froze.

Then the original smiling face was restored and said: "It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming, so welcome."

"Honored guest?" Gao Yufang asked suspiciously.

"It's the big brother behind you." Gao Yuanyi pointed to Xiao Yi and said.

When Gao Yuanyi said this, Xiao Yi was also a little surprised. Could it be that the other party saw something?So why only see the difference in yourself?

But Ye Fei knew in his heart that his jade ring could help him restrain his aura. Gao Yuanyi naturally couldn't perceive his difference, and at most he just regarded him as an ordinary person.

Gao Yufang looked at Xiao Yi suspiciously, and didn't think there was anything different about Brother Xiao Yi.

However, the child's thinking is simple, and she doesn't think too much. If she can't understand it, she doesn't think about it. Seeing the two big brothers being welcomed into the house by her uncle, she walked towards the back hall by herself.

She was going to find her mother-in-law. Every time she came to her uncle's house, her mother-in-law would give her candy. Naturally, she liked being close relatives with her mother-in-law.

And here, after Gao Yuanyi welcomed Xiao Yi and Ye Fei into the room, he asked them to sit down and make tea.

"How many years have passed, I didn't expect to meet a wise man again. I don't know if this is a natural arrangement."

Kaizhi?

Ye Fei couldn't help thinking of Zhang Xiaoshi saying this word to himself?Kaizhi means happy eyes.

Just when Ye Fei was thinking about Zhang Xiaoshi's words, Xiao Yi directly asked, "Knowledge? What is wisdom?"

"Opening wisdom means that when the spirit reaches a certain level, one can form a relationship with nature." Gao Yuanyi explained.

"So this is Kaizhi?" Xiao Yi quickly accepted the new term, and then asked, "Uncle, why did you see that I was Kaizhi at a glance?"

"Because I am also enlightened, so I can come out."

"Are you enlightened too? Then you are also a practitioner?" Xiao Yi asked very seriously when he heard Gao Yuanyi's words.

"No, I'm not a practitioner. I'm just enlightened, but I can't practice. Although my father also thinks that he is a practitioner, I can't practice."

"Huh?" Xiao Yi looked puzzled?Can you cultivate if you become wiser?

Gao Yuanyi explained: "Being enlightened doesn't mean you can practice. Cultivation requires a spiritual root, and I don't have a spiritual root in my body. I can't keep my vitality in my body."

"Oh, I thought I could cultivate with enlightenment, but I still need spiritual roots." Xiao Yi nodded. He was too excited just now, so he forgot about it.

Then he asked: "What about your father? He is a practitioner, so he should have reached a very high level over the years, right? Has he opened up his dantian?"

"No, my dad has been dead for more than thirty years?"

"Huh? What's going on? Since he was a practitioner, how could he die so early?" Xiao Yi was very puzzled.

"Although I don't know whether immortals exist or not, it seems that after continuous practice, I can improve my physical fitness and achieve the effect of prolonging my life."

Speaking of this, Gao Yuanyi's expression became a little depressed, and he continued: "Although my father has practiced for many years, the village was too poor at that time, and some people often fainted from hunger."

"My dad couldn't bear it, so he did it and forcibly communicated with the mountain god, which hurt his vitality, fell to the root of the disease, and eventually died young."

Hearing this explanation, Ye Fei and Xiao Yi remembered Gao Yufang's words just now, saying that Gao Yuanyi's father taught the village that the annual harvest in the village has increased by two or three levels.

However, Xiao Yi still didn't understand and asked: "Pray to the mountain god, sincerity will lead to spirituality, why does your father waste his vitality and forcefully communicate with the mountain god?"

"The main reason is that at that time the state cracked down on feudal superstition, and everyone was no longer able to pray sincerely."

Gao Yuanyi paused for a moment and continued: "In addition, for some reason, the mountain god's response to my father's prayers is getting weaker and weaker. In order for the folks to have an extra bite of food, I can only use up my vitality to forcefully communicate with the mountain god."

"That's really a pity." Xiao Yi showed regret, and then said angrily: "Since this is the case, your family is also very kind to the village. It is too much for them to reject you. Yufang just now Said that because of the rejection of the villagers, you built the house on the mountainside."

"That's nothing. There's no need to mention the past. Besides, isn't this place quite clean? I can study my skills carefully." Gao Yuanyi said indifferently.
