Chapter 48: Casual Practice
In the afternoon, she practiced controlling her strength with wood, and her master instructed her, "Right, that's right. Cut there, nail here. Control your strength."
After giving him some instructions, the master nodded in satisfaction and turned to shout, "Zhao Xue, come here and remove the small thorns on this recliner."
Tao Zi stared at the chair in silence. It was the product of a busy afternoon's work, and it looked great. But...was she actually cultivating herself or just doing hard labor? At just the right moment, her master sighed, "You'll have a chair to lie on when you bask in the sun. Ah Zi, you've done a great job."
She tried to answer calmly, "Thank you for the compliment, Master."
The master smiled and patted her shoulder, then said, "Making reclining chairs is also a craft. When you are down and out in the future, you might be able to make money from this."
Tao Zi:......
"Master, can't you hope for something good?" Zhao Xue, who had just arrived, asked from the bottom of his heart.
"What do you know? It's called being prepared." The master snorted and looked at Tao Zi again. "Ah Zi, I think the kitchen is running low on firewood. Go chop some trees tomorrow morning. It's a good time to practice your strength."
Okay, she understood, it was hard labor.
"Oh, Ah Zi, regarding that technique, I can't remember the correct way to practice it, but the general idea is definitely correct. Just practice it casually, and if you find anything wrong, you can correct it yourself."
Tao Zi looked at him in shock. If the technique was wrong, he might die! Besides, could he modify this himself?
After the master left, Zhao Xue lowered his voice and said, "Big Sister, logically speaking, I shouldn't speak ill of the master behind his back. So... I have some books here that can help with meditation. Would you like to take a look?"
"No need, this is indeed a kind of cultivation." It is a training of both the body and the mind.
She suppressed the latter part of the sentence and asked, "Did Master teach you any techniques or skills?"
Zhao Xue shook his head without thinking: "Master only gave us talismans."
"You haven't taught me some simple techniques?"
He looked at her confusedly and said, "No."
She breathed a sigh of relief and felt assured, at least their disaster was not caused by incorrect techniques and skills.
That night, she got up and made herself a midnight snack, while her inner demon muttered beside her: "Are you sure you don't want to take a look at that technique? Maybe it's an advanced technique?"
She paused eating and gave her inner demon a blank look: "So, you don't feel guilty?"
The techniques of the immortal cultivation world are divided into martial arts, Taoist techniques, Buddhist techniques, and magic techniques, corresponding to physical cultivation, Taoist cultivation, Buddhist cultivation, and magic cultivation respectively. Among them, a small number of Taoist and Buddhist techniques are interoperable, while martial arts and magic techniques can basically only be cultivated by one path.
Techniques are generally categorized into low, intermediate, advanced, king, and heavenly. Heavenly techniques only exist in legend, king-level techniques are possessed by the four sects and three schools, and advanced techniques are only available to the most prestigious sects. The highest level available to ordinary sects is a quasi-advanced technique.
"What if?"
"I'm going to sleep."
"Sleeping all day long, are you a pig?"
The inner demon was furious, but Tao Zi was used to it. She cleaned up the dishes and prepared to go back to rest.
However, in the middle of the night, the noise suddenly arose, even drowning out the complaints of the inner demon in her ears.
She stood up and walked out. Widow Li was standing there in a panic: "Old Man Wen, Xi Jing and the others have been attacked! Go down the mountain and take a look."
