Chapter 172 Is He a Completely Modern Man?
When Chu Ge was focused on practicing, it was actually simpler than for others.
Even though it seems like he has to learn a lot of things, including the Golden Bell Cover and the Broken Plum Hand, he also has to keep running and doing stilt exercises, and he also has to practice the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Striking Techniques and the Art of Space. It's quite complicated.
But these are just for use or as supplements. Practicing more or less doesn't have much impact. It's just to get used to it. Just like I haven't been to the plum blossom pile for a long time, it's no big deal. When practicing with Qiu Wuji, I can also exercise my body skills. It's not necessary to run the pile.
His fundamental way is to write books.
Practicing the technique and writing a book at the same time, for Chu Ge now, it seems that it is no longer two-timing.
When the Way of Changing Heaven and Earth and the Way of Space are combined in it at the same time, it is like turning the pictures in my mind when I was writing the book into a bird's-eye view movie, and then retelling it frame by frame in my writing. There is no so-called distraction, the same thinking, the same heart.
As he wrote more books, the more complete the world he constructed, the richer the plot, his practice became more and more stable, and his level of the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Striking Technique, as well as his mastery of the Way of Space, became stronger and stronger.
It's just that the direction is a little biased. At least in terms of space, it's impossible to be as proficient as mother Wu Xiuyun. The Heaven-Breaking and Earth-Strike Technique also doesn't interfere with the mind's control of people's hearts. Chu Ge only takes one of them. But the others are not important. He only wants this aspect.
Previously, due to the limited spiritual energy, the progress in mana was very ordinary. After using the clam pearls, it got a little better. Now with the elixir, it means that both internal and external assistance are available, and it is obvious that a period of rapid progress is coming.
So most of the time, Chu Ge, who claimed to be practicing hard and pressed Qiu Qiu against the wall, was just buried in typing in front of the computer, and did not look like he was practicing at all.
Only Qiu Wuji could see that the magical power lingering in his body and the faintly fluctuating sea of soul were becoming more and more substantial day by day.
Chu Ge was typing and practicing at the same time, and Qiu Wuji was not idle either.
In addition to taking drugs to improve her body, she took the formation stones that Chu Ge had taken out and started to set up the formation. The entire floor was stacked with countless sets of weird formations. Of course, the property cleaning lady could not trigger them.
Then Qiu Wuji was still doing one thing...
Refine that clam pearl into a magic weapon.
It was impossible to refine it before because there were no other auxiliary materials, but now we have them.
"Uh, what is this?" Chu Ge looked at the jade Guanyin statue handed over by Qiu Wuji in surprise: "Did you go to the jade shop? These things are very deceptive."
"…I can tell at a glance whether it is good jade or not. I don't know if it is a rip-off or not."
Chu Ge thought about it and said, "So you went to Taobao? This Guanyin statue does have some spiritual energy... Hey, why does this spiritual energy feel a little familiar..."
Qiu Wuji said unhappily, "This is the magic weapon made by grinding the clam pearl, adding the fragments of the Lingyu jade you took out of the book, and blending it with the juice of the water lily and the three-yang grass."
"Did you really refine a magic weapon?"
"Of course, the energy of the things you can take out is too ordinary. Even the Lingyu can only take out broken fragments. Otherwise, you can just take out a magic weapon and save me the trouble." Qiu Wuji raised his head proudly: "But it doesn't matter. My Taixu Fire is not as good as Yan Qianlie's for refining pills, but it is first-class for refining equipment and magic weapons!"
Although she was so proud of herself, Chugo always felt like she was saying, "Come and praise me!" Then she would blabber and blab about the uses of this magic weapon...
But he was really confused and couldn't help asking, "But...how did you make a Guanyin statue? There is Buddhism in that world but there is no Guanyin."
Qiu Wuji snorted and said, "I asked Mengmeng what kind of ornaments are good for men to wear. She said men should wear Guanyin and women should wear Buddha. So I went to study what Guanyin looks like."
"Has Mengmeng replaced Baidu's position now?"
Qiu Wuji was angry: "Do you want this jade or not?"
“Yes, yes, yes.” Chu Ge understood very well: “My Qiuqiu is the most powerful, this magic weapon must be very effective!”
"Of course!" Qiu Wuji said, "After the sacrifice, the original spiritual energy of the clam pearl has not dissipated and has become more condensed and rich, which has the additional effect of clearing the mind and calming the thoughts, so as to prevent you from going too far in changing the sky and striking the earth and becoming possessed. Wearing this item with you will also help you recover your mana during battle... Or the material is not good enough, otherwise..."
"That's enough." Chu Ge put it on his neck happily and suddenly blinked his eyes: "This seems to be a token of love."
Qiu Wuji's face flushed slightly. It was obvious that he had thought about this when he was making the jade pendant. He still stiffened his neck and said, "How can there be so much nonsense in this era? You have been talking about Chu Ge's desire for Qiu Wuji for so long, but in the end, you just gave him a pig?"
This sounded like asking for gifts, and Chu Ge was happy: "Hey, how about we go shopping today and buy some gifts?"
The two of them stayed in their little nest when they had nothing to do, eating pills like chocolate, and practicing together happily. Five days had already passed in a flash. During the five days, Chu Ge stayed at home, typing and practicing, and he did feel a little moldy. Qiu Wuji, on the other hand, often went out to buy groceries and often went to Zhu Mengmeng's place for tea. His life was leisurely and carefree.
Hearing Chu Ge's question, Qiu Wuji said leisurely, "When you invited me out that day, you didn't know about Chinese Valentine's Day. When you invited me out today, I guess someone still doesn't know that today is Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Huh?" Chu Ge was stunned: "Is it really Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"Yes." Qiu Wuji said, "I heard that they all have a holiday, and it's a long holiday because of the founding of the country. Suddenly I feel that your job is quite miserable. Other people's holidays have nothing to do with you, so you don't even know the year."
Chu Ge had long been accustomed to it, and he didn't feel anything when he heard it. He smiled and said, "Then at least give our assistant a day off today and go out and buy a big pig."
Qiu Wuji's eyes lit up.
I've seen big dolls in amusement parks before, almost as big as humans! Unfortunately, I didn't have much interest in them at the time, so I didn't get one... Now I really want one, it must be very comfortable to hold, and I can put it in the house...
The two walked out hand in hand. Chu Ge was still lost in thought as he walked along the road: "Mid-Autumn Festival..."
Qiu Wuji said: "Does it feel a bit like saying that Qiu Wuji's experience in the world is already halfway through... Tell me, am I now a qualified modern person? I know better than you that today is a festival, and I also know that men should wear Guanyin and women should wear Buddha!"
To be honest, the Mid-Autumn Festival did make Chu Ge have similar thoughts. It seemed to represent the deepening of autumn and also the deepening of Qiu Wuji in this world.
She really looks like a modern person, except that her spoken language cannot hide the thousands of years of habits and the occasional ancient ideas...but that doesn't matter, modern people will also say a few words to show off.
Chu Ge thought about it and said, "Actually, I always feel like it's still a little short of perfection."
Qiu Wuji was dissatisfied: "How can it be incomplete? I know more about celebrating today's festival than you do..."
“I just heard it while chatting with Meng Meng over tea…” Chu Ge smiled and said, “If it were a modern person, I would have expected this a long time ago and have been counting the days until today’s holiday.”
"Then you are an ancient person!"
"Haha... I didn't care because of my job. The situation is special. In fact, I can say that I am 007 and I go to work every day, or I can say that I have a day off every day. As long as I can save some manuscripts, it's like arranging my own vacation - although saving manuscripts is mostly a dream. But at worst, I will stop updating. No one forces me. What forces me is just a sense of responsibility."
"So you chose this profession because of the freedom?"
"And because you are in the book."
"Bah." Qiu Wuji didn't buy it and snorted, "You said I'm not complete just because I didn't look forward to the festival?"
"I feel like there's something else... I haven't thought about it carefully before." Chu Ge raised his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Maybe it's because your life is too simple... I always feel like you're actually still a practitioner."
Qiu Wuji was stunned. "How can you say that? I see Mengmeng has nothing to do all day long. She just drinks tea and does spa. It's much simpler than me. I have to practice, set up formations, refine magic weapons, cook for you, review books, and write my autobiography."
"Zhu Mengmeng likes to do spa..." Chu Ge turned to look at her: "Have you ever had a hobby that you want to do, even if it's just listening to music?"
