Li Shiming closed the door of the study, which was inside the main room. There were some books on the bookshelf in the study.
The books here are all ordinary books, and there are no selected scriptures passed down in the family.
The books needed for the exam are still in the box I brought, and I won’t have time to pack them out until tomorrow.
Of course he didn't need those books, but he had to pretend to have them in order to conceal his tracks.
He took out the spirit gathering plate anxiously and took out four spirit stones without spiritual power from the plate.
He took out four new spirit stones and carefully placed them in the four grooves of the spirit gathering plate.
Looking at the complex patterns on the spirit gathering disk, he recalled in his mind the best solution he had come up with after twelve days of research.
Li Shiming stretched out a finger, and spiritual light flashed on his finger.
His fingers moved continuously on the spirit gathering plate, and the spiritual power in the four spirit stones was guided into the spirit gathering plate and began to flow in the plate.
Activating the spirit gathering disk is actually not complicated. All formed magic arrays can be successfully activated by simply mastering the direction of the flow of spiritual power. This is the explanation from Fan Yiyang.
Li Shiming had been using the Juling Disk for a month and had already saved the video of the Juling Disk in operation in the memory of the large server IBM z15.
This allowed him to find the most likely energy route connecting the spirit stone and the spirit gathering disk even if he didn't understand the operating principle of the spirit gathering disk.
When the light on the spirit gathering disk flickered and formed an illuminated area, he knew he had succeeded.
Li Shiming looked at the activated Spirit Gathering Plate in front of him with some excitement. With the Spirit Gathering Plate, he could continue to practice the 'Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique' and also have enough spiritual power to learn other spells.
Even when planting spiritual rice, you can be more generous and use the "Spring Breeze and Rain Art" more often.
He sat on top of the spirit gathering plate and started practicing the 'Five Elements Qi Gathering Technique'. Following the spiritual power lines of the second level of the technique, he quickly entered into a deep level of cultivation.
An hour later, he opened his eyes and could feel the spiritual power in his body increasing again, making him want to cry with happiness.
Only after losing something does one realize how precious it is. In the days without spiritual energy, he was afraid that one day he would fall from the second level of Qi Refining to the first level.
This is not impossible. The reason he can stay stable at the second level of Qi Refining is the spiritual rice he eats every day. If he doesn't have the spiritual rice as food, the secular food will make his body reject the spiritual energy and his realm will slowly drop.
Why did Fan Yiyang ask if he could buy some spiritual rice when they first met, just because he guessed that Li Shiming had spiritual rice? It was because of the monks' dependence on spiritual food.
Li Shiming did not have too many emotions. He moved his mind slightly and put the Soul Gathering Disk into the computer room.
He did not try to shut down the spirit gathering disk. Now he had a hundred spirit stones in his hand, and he had a way to earn spirit stones, so he didn't have to worry about the consumption of four spirit stones every month.
The computer room space also needs spiritual energy. The richer the spiritual energy, the better for the growth of spiritual plants.
Especially since he wants to grow spiritual plants that are more advanced than spiritual rice in the future, the requirements for the spiritual environment will be higher.
"Master, when will we have dinner?" Siqin asked immediately after he opened the door of the study.
"Let the kitchen bring it. You don't need to serve us during the meal!" Li Shiming ordered casually.
Siqin bowed and responded. She was a little unhappy. She didn't know why, but the young master didn't want her to serve him during meals recently, which made her feel disappointed.
Li Shiming would not pay attention to the maid's temper. He did not want to appear too special. At least before revealing his identity as a monk to his family, he still wanted to be an ordinary person.
Every time he ate, he would put the food away and pretend that he had finished his meal, but in fact his only food was Mi Ling.
After finishing his meal and washing up, he returned to the bedroom.
After spending twelve days on the official ship, he practiced cultivation when he came back. He was a little tired, so he didn't think about other things.
In the darkness of night, the lights in the third courtyard were off, as if all the houses nearby had fallen into a deep sleep.
"It's dry, be careful with fire!"
The sound of "knock, knock, knock" and the voice of the night watchman could be heard faintly in the darkness. It was already the third watch.
Li Shiming, who was sleeping, moved his ears slightly and suddenly opened his eyes.
Since he no longer had to worry about saving electricity, he kept his five senses connected to the large server IBMz15 even when he was sleeping.
Just now, the large server IBMz15 issued an alarm, and a series of beeps exploded in his ears.
This is a warning program he made for himself. In case any abnormal situation occurs outside his body while he is sleeping or practicing, the large server IBMz15 can actively remind him.
He did not move, maintaining his sleeping position, but his ears were collecting tiny sounds.
He heard the sound of feet on tiles, and at the same time, a scene of a person wearing soft-soled boots stepping on the ground appeared in his mind. This was the real-time analysis result given by the large server IBMz15.
He found the Night Walker's location, just above the main house.
The night walker's movements were extremely quiet. If it weren't for the surveillance of the large server IBMz15, Li Shiming would not have been able to detect the night walker so early.
Li Shiming's eyes followed the movements of the night walker on the roof. He didn't know whether the night walker was passing by or came to see him on purpose.
When the night walker left the roof and walked down the outer wall, the friction sound of the silk clothes against the outer wall made Li Shiming certain that the night walker came for him.
Li Shiming was extremely confused. He had not even started visiting his father's old friends yet, so how come someone knew that he moved into the old house? And what kind of hatred could that send someone over when he first entered Zhongdu?
He didn't think that the Night Walker would have any good intentions, and the most likely possibility was to assassinate him.
There was a slight piercing sound from the window paper, and a real-time analysis screen of the large server IBMz15 appeared in Li Shiming's mind. The night walker was piercing the window paper with a bamboo tube.
"Poison, or incense?"
Without needing to confirm which one it was, he immediately held his breath.
In fact, with the strength of the second level of Qi Refining, most of the worldly poisons and incenses are ineffective against him.
The only poison that can poison a monk is one that carries spiritual energy.
It’s not that Li Shiming looked down on this night walker. If the other party could get a poison with spiritual energy, then he wouldn’t need to be so careful.
A thin layer of smoke was blown into the bedroom. After waiting for a while, a dagger was inserted from the window gap and opened the bedroom window.
The night walker jumped into the room from the window, and his almost silent landing made Li Shiming's heart tighten.
Judging from the noises made by the night walker, this person is a martial arts master.
Although Li Shiming is a cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining, he has very few combat methods.
