Helpless, Xia He could only return to the kang (heated brick bed), sit cross-legged, gently place her hands on her knees with her palms facing upwards, and place the spirit stone in her palms.
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and entered a meditative state.
Xia He began to focus on sensing the spiritual energy within her body, concentrating her attention on the laws of the universe, and slowly began to guide the spiritual energy to flow through her meridians, like the changing trajectory of a star in the sky.
The spiritual energy originates from the vortex in the dantian, rises along the spine, and then flows from the top of the head to the limbs and meridians. The breathing begins to synchronize with the flow of spiritual energy, with each exhale accompanied by the condensation of spiritual energy and each inhale accompanied by the diffusion of spiritual energy. This practice continues until the morning of the next day.
When Xia He opened her eyes again, the two little ones were squatting beside her, staring at her expectantly, glancing at Xiao Hua every now and then. Xia He glanced at the time and realized that so much time had passed!
It seems that Xiao Hua scared the two little ones away from disturbing her. Xia He hasn't started fasting yet, so her stomach is making a rumbling sound. Xiao Hua told Xia He that she wouldn't need to eat anything after she started cultivating, but how could Xia He endure this injustice!
Eat when it's time to eat!
However, looking at the two little ones, Xia He thought it was time to bring out the automatic feeder! Even though it could only feed them dog food, it was better than them going hungry!
Ignoring Xiao Hua's resentful gaze, Xia He prepared a sumptuous meal for the two little ones. For today's side dishes, Xia He took out a food processor and blended the pre-cooked chicken breast, carrots, and broccoli into a puree as the two little ones' main course. Then she took out chicken soup, soaked meatballs in it, and finally gave the two little ones blueberries as dessert.
While the two little ones were happily eating, I took out two beef bones from my storage space and gave them to the two little ones to gnaw on as snacks.
Xia He then sensed the changes in her spiritual power and estimated that she was now close to the middle stage of the first rank.
In the following days, Xia He spent her time repeatedly cultivating her spiritual power and practicing ice-breaking techniques. One morning, Xia He gradually felt that the spiritual power in her meridians was becoming stronger and stronger, and the vortex in her dantian was constantly accumulating power.
As the energy flowed through the last meridian and returned to the dantian, a white light emanated from the vortex. Then, the vortex grew slightly larger, but the difference was not significant. Xia He felt that she had advanced to level two.
Xia He had just snapped out of her meditation when she heard the radio announce, "Attention all citizens, the second wave of airdrops will be launched today. Please proceed to open areas to collect your supplies." This announcement was repeated three times.
Xia He has been cultivating day and night for the past few days without leaving the house, and doesn't know the situation in the neighborhood. She guesses that the supplies provided by the authorities are almost used up. She can't let people suspect that she has enough to eat and drink, and since an airdrop is being delivered today, she has to go out and check.
When a helicopter came running by with a loudspeaker, Xia He dressed and went out.
This time, I left the two little ones at home and let Xiaohua return to the space to go out with me.
Xia He didn't want to wear makeup this time, so she covered her face completely with a scarf.
When Xia He arrived at the last distribution point for supplies, she noticed that there were fewer people in the community, especially fewer elderly people. In this kind of weather, older people really can't stand it.
Moreover, it is extremely torturous when there is no heat source.
