This is probably a real monk, because he doesn't eat meat.
Hu Qing cooked vegetable noodles and stir-fried some meat. The meat was leftover from the day off. It was fatter and thinner.
Shui Xin frowned as he looked at the pieces of meat.
Hu Qing ignored him and went to the study room to eat if he didn't like it. No one forced you to eat with me.
Shui Xin was busy eating the noodles: "Is your daughter in the Huazong Dynasty?"
Hu Qing chewed slowly: "Hmm."
Shui Xin: "Are you from the mortal world?"
"Well."
"You just came?"
"Well."
"How did you know I was under the car?"
Hu Qing raised his head and looked at him: "Do you know how long I can eat a piece of meat like yours?"
Oh, how could she not feel the weight of an adult man?
Shuixin smiled and rolled her eyes, her eyes gleaming: "Thank you for not exposing me. Why didn't you expose me?"
Hu Qing: "As a mortal, I can't take care of the monks' affairs. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Originally, I thought you would sneak down halfway, but who knew you had to come back with me."
Shui Xin: "You were afraid of trouble, so you took me in."
Hu Qing: "I need spiritual stones, very much." It's worth taking some risks to get rich, especially since she has lost her job.
Shui Xin: "Is it cultivation? But it's too late for you to practice now. It's a pity that your dual spiritual roots are damaged. If it had been five or six years earlier -"
Bang.
Shui Xin was startled.
Hu Qingwan paused on the table and looked at him with wide eyes: "Double spiritual roots? Me?"
Shui Xin was surprised: "You don't know? Then what do you want the spirit stone for? Chaohua Sect is good to its disciples. Your daughter's cultivation will not make you a non-practitioner."
Hu Qing was nervous: "How do you know I have dual spiritual roots?"
Shui Xin pointed at her eyes: "You can see it. My eyes are specially trained to see spiritual roots. Even those with higher cultivation levels can see."
Hu Qing breathed unsteadily: "So, I can practice?"
Shui Xin: "It's possible, but you're too old. I'm afraid you'll get twice the result with half the effort."
Hu chuckled: "As long as you can."
Shui Xin thought for a while and decided to tell the truth: "You just started practicing at your age, especially since your Yuan Yin has been lost. I'm afraid you won't be able to build a foundation in your lifetime."
Hu Qing was unhappy: "Isn't it just that I gave birth to a child?"
Shui Xin: "You really don't understand. If Yuanyang and Yuanyin are lost too early, it will be difficult to accumulate spiritual power in the Dantian. If the spiritual power is not accumulated enough, it will be impossible to attack the barrier and it will be difficult to build the foundation."
Hu Qing said firmly: "There is still hope."
Shui Xin opened her mouth but stopped talking.
Hu Qing asked him: "What spiritual root am I?"
Shui Xin confirmed again: "Two spiritual roots of gold and fire."
Hu Qing smiled: "What are your qualifications?"
Shui Xin looked at her and said nothing.
Hu Qing stopped laughing: "Not good?"
Shui Xin: "It was originally good."
Hu Qing: "How to make spiritual roots better?"
Shui Xin: "You are too old and your Yuan Yin has been lost——"
"Shut up. Tell me something."
Shui Xinxin said, "You want me to shut up." He said: "The elixir for spiritual roots, the Life Pill, is for mortals to develop spiritual roots. You don't need it. The Spirit Cleansing Pill is for washing away one or two spiritual roots."
Yes, you don’t need it because you have two spiritual roots. The Spirit Shaping Pill repairs the damage to your spiritual roots——"
Hu Qing's eyes lit up.
"Note, it is repairing the damage. For example, if a person is cut, applying medicine to stop the bleeding is called repairing the damage. When a person is old and about to die, will the rejuvenation pill, a medicine for sores, work?"
Hu Qing was silent: "Then there is no other way? I don't believe that all monks started practicing at a young age. Are there no exceptions for those great monks who have lived a long life?"
Shui Xin thought for a while: "Yes."
Hu Qing: "What can I do?"
"Treasures from heaven, materials and earth. Very precious and rare treasures from heaven, materials and earth, which can bring spring to life."
Hu Qing stopped talking.
Shui Xin: "You should have come ten years earlier."
Hu Qing: "Ten years? When I was ten years old, I couldn't even leave the house."
After a few minutes of eating, Hu Qing sat in the yard and stared in a daze.
Shui Xin packed up the dishes and was about to come out. Hu Qing turned around and said, "I'll do it. My neighbor likes to climb on the wall. If she sees you, my reputation will be ruined."
Shui Xin stood in the house and comforted: "Don't be sad, there will always be a way."
Hu Qing took the bowl and chopsticks: "I'm not sad, I'm very happy. I can practice cultivation if I have spiritual roots, and I won't be separated from my daughter. I'm thinking of a way."
Shui Xin was curious: "Have you thought of it?"
"Of course not. But there is a way, just think about it. Don't leave the house these days. Just leave quietly when you feel better."
Hu Qing went to the water tank to wash the dishes. Shui Xin stood at the door and watched her busy. There was no trace of decadence or despair at all. This woman was very interesting. First, she was not obsessed with her beauty, and second, she was not reserved when alone with him.
He could afford to make excessive jokes, but his eyes looked appreciative but cold, not like an ordinary mortal at all.
Shui Xin touched her clothes. If all women were like her, she would have fewer worries.
After losing his job, Hu Qing never went out except to throw away the garbage. There were many things inconvenient for him to have a grown man at home, such as relieving himself. There was no public toilet outside, so he simply took a Bigu Pill.
However, Shui Xin pestered her and insisted on eating. This monk was too beautiful. Although Hu Qing had no idea of taking advantage of beauty, she always felt a little soft when faced with such a face.
"Your cultivation level must be very high, right? You should have stopped eating a long time ago, right?"
Shui Xin: "Unable to mobilize spiritual power, monks will starve to death."
Hu Qingcai didn't believe it. He always felt that he was greedy. He served three meals of plain noodles, plain rice and vegetarian dishes, all as a living expense. If he wrote down these expenses in one lump sum, he would pay them back.
When it came to growing flowers, Shui Xin asked her to throw away all the ones she had picked up in the yard: "Your spirit is simply incompetent with wood, so you can't grow these. Only the two pots of living ones are not very energetic. You are not suitable for growing flowers."
"
Hu Qing: "Originally, I was counting on selling flowers to support my family. Fortunately, the flower boss didn't hire me to grow flowers. Alas, I lost my job of carrying a flower pot."
Shui Xin was speechless: "I will lose money, don't remind me all the time."
Hu Qing: "If nothing happens, why don't you tell me how you offended that girl and how you ran out naked."
Shui Xin pointed at her face: "You still have to say? This is not the first time this happened, but this time I was careless and she almost succeeded."
Hu Qing: "I don't think she likes you."
Shui Xin chuckled lightly: "Let me teach you how to be a good boy. Every woman there can pick up yang to replenish yin, and every man there can pick up yin to replenish yang."
Hu Qing thought: "You are Dabu." Suddenly he became narrow-minded and said: "Did you know that we have a monk named Yudi who can live forever if he eats his meat."
Shui Xin took out his ears, leaned against the door frame, and talked to Hu Qing in the courtyard: "Immortal? How long do you live to be considered immortal?"
Hu Qing: "Ask me? You have to live until you are tired of it."
Shui Xin chuckled: "When did you get tired?"
Hu Qing turned his back to him and shrugged: "I'm tired of not having anyone or anything I care about anymore."
Shui Xin raised her right eyebrow and moved to the door frame to lean on: "I thought you would say the longer the better."
Hu Qing turned around, looked at him, and raised his eyebrows, but gave him a contemptuous smile.
