Chapter 20(2/3)
My current situation is like the traffic of later generations. The road is too narrow, there are too many cars, it is unbearable, the Dantian capacity is insufficient, and the meridians are not wide enough.
All in all, the foundation is still weak and the foundation is shallow. Others cultivate their internal strength over time, and the increase in internal strength cannot keep up with the increase in Dantian volume. I am just the opposite.
"Do you understand?...You still want to practice the Six Classics at the same time?!" Jin Kaitai said with a smile.
Li Muchan nodded slowly: "Commander, I want to learn the Six Sutras together!"
Jin Kaitai's face sank: "You kid, why are you so brainless and ignorant?!"
Li Muchan asked: "Has the Commander seen the Shadowless Sword Technique that Senior Brother obtained?"
"Hmph, I've seen it. It's indeed exquisite and rare." Jin Kaitai nodded, and then suddenly realized: "Do you want to practice the Shadowless Sword?"
Then he hummed: "If you want to practice the Shadowless Sword, just practice according to the mental method. Although it involves the six meridians of the arm, they mainly run through the Shaoyin meridian, and the other five meridians are just a short section... There is no need to practice the rest of the five meridians!"
"
Li Muchan shook his head: "I've been practicing all I want."
He vaguely felt that there was something wrong with practicing alone. After all, he came from a later generation, an era of information explosion, and his knowledge and vision were far better than ordinary people. He felt that balance was the best form, and breaking the balance would lead to consequences.
Jin Kaitai's face darkened and he stared at him with a frown.
Li Muchan clasped his left hands together and said with a smile: "Please lead me to make it complete!"
Jin Kaitai snorted with a sullen face, turned his head, and turned his back to him.
Zhao Yiyi came out wearing an apron, walked to Li Muchan's bed, and said softly: "Uncle, the meal is ready, let's eat first!"
Li Muchan smiled and nodded, turned to Jin Kaitai and said, "Commander, let's talk while eating!"
"I won't eat it!" Jin Kaitai waved his hand and said angrily.
Li Muchan turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, let's eat in the courtyard."
"Okay." Zhao Yiyi nodded, glanced at Jin Kaitai, pursed her lips, and hurriedly turned back to the kitchen.
She found it funny that this big black bear-like man was obviously the commander, but it was the other way around, as if his uncle was the commander.
Li Muchan took his seat and sat down, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law's cooking skills are very good, not inferior to the chef of Chaoran Building. The commander is in a good mood!"
As he spoke, he walked slowly and calmly into the main room, and soon came out. He held the round table in his left hand, as light as nothing, and placed it in front of the bamboo forest, where there happened to be a shade.
Then he made three more trips and brought three chairs.
Zhao Yiyi also walked back and forth carrying dishes, with a light gait, a figure as slim as a willow, and a graceful manner.
Soon, four plates of dishes were placed on the table, two vegetarian and two meat. The colors were attractive, and they exuded steam. The aroma gradually filled the air, and soon filled the entire courtyard.
"Come, Commander, please take a seat!" Li Muchan said with a loud smile.
Jin Kaitai sat on the couch, watching him busy here and there, with a cold face, but his nose moved, and he was drooling from the aroma.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after dinner. You have the strength to scold me even if you want to, right?"
Jin Kaitai hummed and strode to the table.
"Come on, please take a seat at the table!" Li Muchan asked him to sit down at the main table.
Jin Kaitai was not polite, sat down, and smiled at Zhao Yiyi who was standing next to Li Muchan: "Mrs. Li, I'm sorry for bothering you!"
Zhao Yiyi smiled: "You're welcome, Commander."
Li Muchan stretched out his hand to support me and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, sit here."
Zhao Yiyi shrank and avoided his hand: "Uncle, there are still two dishes left for me to cook. You just drink first."
After saying that, he picked up the wine jar, pulled out the cork, poured two glasses of wine, and then quietly left.
Li Muchan smiled and didn't force himself. He picked up the wine glass and said, "Come on, Commander. I'll give you a drink first. Thank you Commander for your kindness."
"I don't dare to take it!" Jin Kaitai snorted and said: "You have a stupid head, you have to go all the way to the dark side, my words will not work at all!"
Li Muchan smiled and looked up.
Jin Kaitai also drank it all in one gulp, lit up the bottom of the cup, and hummed: "You are a monk, can you drink?"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I don't have to keep the precepts anymore. Come on, sir, please—!"
The two of them had one drink for you and one for me. They drank very quickly and generously. Jin Kaitai admired the food and said it was delicious and that his sister-in-law had such cooking skills.
Cups came and went, and before he knew it, Jin Kaitai was already drunk.
Li Muchan usually talks very little, but it is not that he is not good at speaking, but he has a detached mentality, looks down on all living beings, is too lazy to talk more, and feels that his words are pale and weak.
As soon as he started chatting, he immediately burst out with witty remarks, making Jin Kaitai laugh. Unknowingly, the jar of wine had reached the bottom.
Li Muchan's expression was as usual, but his eyes on the back were brighter, shining like gems, and he was full of energy.
Jin Kaitai's face turned red, as if covered with a layer of red cloth, his eyes were bloodshot, he talked more, and he became brothers with Li Muchan.
Zhao Yiyi served the last dish, which was a red and green preserved fruit, which looked fresh and cool.
Seeing Jin Kaitai like this, she whispered: "Uncle, you can't drink anymore, he is almost drunk."
This is my uncle's home-brewed rice wine. It's soft, sweet and refreshing when you drink it, but it has a strong stamina. It pours when the wind blows, and you often get drunk without even realizing it.
"Who is drunk?!" Jin Kaitai's inner strength reached the tip of his ears. When he heard it, he immediately raised his head and shouted loudly: "I'm not drunk. Come on, open another jar of wine!"
Zhao Yiyi was startled and said hurriedly: "No...no more."
Jin Kaitai's eyes widened and he turned to Li Muchan: "Zhanran, you little monk is not interesting enough! When I came to your house, there was no wine to drink!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Okay, sister-in-law, go to Li Jian's house and bring a jar."
Zhao Yiyi looked at him worriedly.
This Jin Commander is as black as a black bear, but he can't drink enough. My uncle's expression doesn't change, but he is already drunk.
Looking at his appearance, his face was red and purple, and his eyes were bloodshot. It was scary. If he drank more, he might faint. If something happened to him, it would be serious.
Li Muchan leaned over and lowered his voice in her ear: "Don't come back if you go."
Zhao Yiyi felt the heat getting into her ears, and couldn't help but blush on her face. She pursed her small mouth to suppress a smile, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, then I'll bring a jar, and you can drink it slowly."
After saying that, she twisted her waist and walked out, curling out of the door.
Jin Kaitai woke up suddenly. He turned over and looked around. He was lying on a couch. This couch was located in the center of the small courtyard, where Li Muchan was sitting previously.
The setting sun is shining, and the sky is filled with red clouds.
The small courtyard was dyed red, and the flowers bloomed in the flowerbed, which looked even more beautiful in the soft sunshine. A gust of wind blew, and the bamboo forest in the west rustled.
He looked down and saw that he was covered with a thin sheet. It was a little worn but very clean.
It was quiet around him and he coughed.
Li Muchan walked out of the main room and asked with a smile: "Commander, are you awake?"
Jin Kaitai was a little embarrassed and pretended to be fine. He frowned and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Two hours, did you sleep well?" Li Muchan said with a smile.
"You are a monk, but you have a great capacity for drinking!" Jin Kaitai was a little unconvinced.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I have great strength and a large capacity for drinking. If the commander is dissatisfied, let's compete again another day!"
"Okay, just wait, I will get it back!" Jin Kaitai snorted and touched his head: "Your wine is pretty good, you won't get drunk after drinking it."
Li Muchan smiled and said: "I brewed it myself, but it's a pity that I drank it all."
He added: "Commander, do you still remember what happened after you were drunk?"
"What's the matter?" Jin Kaitai frowned and thought, the scenes while drinking flashed through each other, a bit fragmented and could not be pieced together.
Li Muchan said: "Commander, you promised me to practice the Six Classics simultaneously."
"What?!" Jin Kaitai was startled, then hummed in disbelief: "I really agreed?!"
"Sure enough, I forgot. You personally promised it, Commander." Li Muchan nodded vigorously and smiled: "You also created a document, do you want to take a look?"
"No wonder your kid is trying to persuade me to drink. It turns out it's a conspiracy!" Jin Kaitai pointed at him and hummed.
A scene flashed through his mind. He was swaying, pretending to be fine, and patting his chest to promise that Zhanran would be allowed to study the Six Classics concurrently, and he could do whatever he wanted.
But the thief monk Zhan Ran kept laughing and said that he didn't believe it. He was drunk. Once he was drunk, he would never admit it when he woke up.
I remember that I was most annoyed at the time when others said I was drunk, so I had to write a document to prove it.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Commander, have you remembered?"
"Hmph, do you really want to study the Six Classics at the same time?" Jin Kaitai lowered his face and asked angrily.
He has always felt that a man's words are irresistible. No matter what time he speaks, they will be spat out.
"Yes." Li Muchan nodded solemnly.
Jin Kaitai raised his index finger on his right hand: "I have a condition."
Seeing Li Muchan nodding, Jin Kaitai said: "Yu Zhen has just started to practice the Shaoyang Sutra. Your progress in the Shaoyang Sutra cannot be lower than his!"
"The Shaoyang Sutra, it seems that senior brother has been practicing it for two months, right?" Li Muchan said.
Jin Kaitai waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, do you agree or not?"
