Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 4: Fox

　　 It turns out that Xia Fan's choice was correct.

　　 When he mentioned this to the store, he realized that there were only a handful of rooms that were still vacant. Among them, the big head had been reserved by the children of the aristocracy. Small room on the ground floor.

　　 In addition, even for the smallest single-bed room, the charge is as high as one or two silver a day. This price is similar to that of a large inn in Gyeonggi, and it seems to have an attitude of slaughtering customers.

　　 Xia Fan now finally understands why the invigilator should write "not to interfere in the daily life of the villagers" in the examination rules. If this kind of "black shop" moves outside, I'm afraid it will be smashed in a few days.

　　According to this line of thought, the three meals a day provided by the store may also be "scenic price." If you don't plan carefully, you will not be able to end the exam.

　　The disciples of the Damen School are not short of money, but under the restrictions of the rules, silver has also become an important resource.

　　 It is up to the examinee to judge whether to use it to maintain their own good condition or to exchange information.

　　 Xia Fan found that he seemed to understand the thinking of the test organizer.

　　 Compared with the scientific examinations you asked me to answer, and the martial arts examinations when you picked up a weapon, the Shi examination obviously puts more emphasis on the comprehensive abilities of the candidates.

　　 It is more free, but there are more things to consider, and the answer is not only the only solution, as long as it does not violate the rules, it can do anything.

　　For people in this era, this kind of test method may be very strange, but for Xia Fan, it is no surprise-he prefers this kind of completely personal test rather than simply testing the ability of spells. The way to play.

　　 He took out three and a half dollars and directly booked a three-day house, plus dinner tonight.

　　 rushing from Fenghua County to Qingshan Town can be described as rushing all the way. Now that there is plenty of time, it is better to take a good night's rest and restore the state to perfection.

　　 went back to the room, Xia Fan couldn't help but curled his lips.

　　 deserves to be the house that everyone picked up. I don’t know if the size is five square meters or not. A narrow bed and a wooden table are all the furniture. The floor is slightly higher, almost three meters above the ground, so that the windows are open so high that you can't reach it without stepping on the table. You can't even think about enjoying the outside scenery while practicing.

　　 But the room as a whole is very clean. There are no cobwebs in the corners of the beams and no dust at the foot of the bed. It is undoubtedly much better than those unmaintained thatched houses. It seems that the Privy Council’s money is not in vain. Another advantage is that it is located at the end of the aisle on the first floor, on the corner of the entire hotel, which is considered the quietest place in the store, very suitable for spiritual practice.

　　 Thinking of this, Xia Fan simply put down the package and climbed into bed to meditate.

　　 Since he was adopted by the cheap master, this kind of training has never stopped. It has been 15 years no matter how hot, cold, rainy or snowy.

　　 This is also the way to get started in the world—inducing air into the body.

　　 is very old-fashioned, but the ancestors believed that the universe was first opened, chaos became two, the most important is "accumulation", and the sinking is the dead thing. The light is "Qi", which floats all over the world and condenses into beings. Although living things are born with qi, they also lose the vitality of qi. Therefore, if you want to strengthen yourself, you must re-master the method of incorporation into qi, so that it can continuously wash itself before re-establishing the connection with qi.

　　 This set of theory is quite similar to the theory of Dao being one, one, two, two, three, and three. It seems very idealistic, but the problem is that Qi does exist.

　　 Whether or not you can actually perceive qi is a prerequisite for entering the alchemist threshold.

　　 Xia Fan still remembers to this day that under the guidance of the master, the night when he "saw" the Qi--under the sky full of stars, something more striking than the stars appeared. They were not like clouds and mist, but more like another Kind of stars: the light spots flicker with each other, fluttering with the wind, dense and innumerable. Only when they are far away can they connect into one piece and form a state of qi.

　　 is that day, his original common sense was shattered.

　　 A series of questions came to mind, like an erupting volcano, he almost tried his best to keep these doubts that were obviously beyond the age range from blurting out.

　　 And he knew in his heart that even the master might not be able to give a satisfactory answer.

　　 Since then, Xia Fan has invested a lot of energy in cultivation.

　　 I meditate day after day, even if I am hungry, I do not leave to practice, learn the drawing method of Fulu, learn everything about the knowledge of alchemists. Even the cheap master, who is not very concerned about everything, was shocked by his performance. He also said that this world is capable of genius, but he can have such perseverance and understanding when he was a child, even among thousands of people. Can't pick one.

　　 Only Xia Fan knows that he has nothing to do with genius. Comprehension comes from systematic education, and perseverance is only the companion of age.

　　 That's right, he once lived in a completely different world, and everything about that side in his memory is vividly visible.

　　 It’s just that he can’t remember how he came to this era.

　　 There does not seem to be a clear boundary between the two, as if it was a blink of an eye, and as if a long time had passed, when he opened his eyes again, he had become an orphan rolling in the mud.

　　 Even the name Xia Fan was taken by him from his past memories.

　　 Fortunately, the cheap master did not delve into this point.

　　 He probably thinks that it is not too rare for a three-year-old child to remember the name given by his parents.

　　 With the ability to learn one step ahead, Xia Fan quickly gained an overall understanding of the world.

　　Because life is born of Qi, it means that consciousness is born before the body. Similarly, after the body dies, consciousness will not necessarily return to the state of Qi. In some special circumstances, consciousness can exist independently, or evolve into something else, such as sprites and ghosts. If left untreated, they will continue to grow in the air and eventually harm the world.

　　 Although Xia Fan hasn't seen a monster that can really harm a place, he has also solved some small evils with Master, confirming that they are not folk stories.

　　 In addition, he has also been able to truly feel the changes in his body since he has practiced Qi-inducing air—whether it is power, reaction, vision, and hearing, they are far better than ordinary people. In other words, if it weren't for these changes, he wouldn't really be able to wander all the way with Master in an era when the medical level is poor and he might die in a rain, and live tenaciously to this age.

　　 This kind of improvement visible to the naked eye can be said to further stimulate his motivation to practice.

　　 If weight loss with a reward for one sweat is the world's least disappointing investment, then exercises that can increase the limit of the body are obviously more worthy of attention.

　　 After entering the state of training, Xia Fan felt that those tiny stars were blending with him. Through them, his consciousness seemed to have infinite expansion space, and every breath seemed to come from himself, but also like From the world.

　　 This sitting for several hours.

　　After eating the dinner delivered by the store, he continued to return to the air-entrained state, which lasted until late at night.

　　Unfortunately, you need to concentrate when you feel the breath. It is not a substitute for rest, nor can you train while sleeping, so you have to close your eyes obediently when you fall asleep.

　　 Just half asleep and half awake, Xia Fan suddenly felt a little strange.

　　 He opened his eyes abruptly, only to find that the window hanging high above his head was opened somehow, revealing a blood-red light and shadow from outside the window.

　　This...what happened?

　　He grabbed the wooden sword in his hand, stepped on the table cautiously, tiptoed up and looked out the window——

　　 I saw a round of red moon rising above the dome, dyeing the earth a scarlet!

　　 At the same time, there was an abnormal change in the town-there were many soil packs on the ground, and these soil packs were pushed a little bit by bit. Skeletons crawled out of the ground, making a terrifying cry.

　　 Xia Fan couldn't help being taken aback.

　　 This scene seems to be familiar.

　　 and those skeleton monsters, no matter how they look, reveal a touch of cuteness.

　　 Wait, cute?

　　 One of the skeletons found it, turned around and jumped up, rushing towards the window!

　　 The next moment, Xia Fan sat up in shock and found that he was still lying on the bed.

　　 Is this... a dream?

　　 If it was a dream, it would be too real. Both the clarity and the sound touch far exceed the dream state, and I can remember all the details even after waking up.

　　 Unconsciously, he raised his head and looked out the window, then his heart tightened slightly.

　　The window was indeed opened~IndoMTL.com~ and there was something more in the window-it took him a few seconds to adjust to the dark environment before distinguishing the outline of the black shadow.

　　 It was a figure sitting by the window, and his eyes were focused on him. The reason for saying this is because in the pitch black, the most conspicuous are the golden eyes that reflect the weak light of the other party.

　　 Xia Fan realized in an instant that this strange dream was related to the person in front of him.

　　"Could it be...you are also a picnic fan?"

　　 "Picnic? What's that-wrong, why are you not afraid?" Unexpectedly, the other party responded quickly, and the voice was actually a...female, even though the tone sounded cold.

　　Why should I be afraid of a group of Q version skeletons?

　　 Xia Fan didn't know how to answer.

　　 But the other party was willing to speak, and he was a little relieved. If the visitor is full of malice, he shouldn't wait until he opens his eyes again.

　　 He fumbled, took out the fire fold from the clothes at the foot of the bed, blew out the sparks and lit the candle on the table. The dim fire suddenly dissipated the twilight in the room and also let him see what the other person looked like.

　　The comer is not a human being-this is the first recognition in Xia Fan's heart.

　　 Although "she" does look like a woman, the pricked ears above her head are too eye-catching.

　　 If the other party is not a fan, this kind of mixed with non-human characteristics is generally called a ghost, or a demon.

　　 "Dog?" Xia Fan asked tentatively.

　　 did not respond.

　　"Cat?"

　　 The eyes that can reflect light at night are really like cats.

　　 is still silent.

　　 "Wolf?" He guessed again.

　　 "Enough, it's a fox!" Her voice finally fluctuates.
