The sun was rising, and before noon, Qiao Yuan woke up leisurely, and after freshening up, he rushed directly to the fence courtyard.

Qiao Yuan came to the small courtyard and called twice, only to see that the door of the house was closed, he knew that Tie Mo was not there, so he picked up the firewood and observed it, but he just observed it and felt that he had already touched this firewood.

You must know that it took him half a pillar of incense to find out a piece of firewood for the longest time last night, and now it is only a hundred breaths that make him a little trance.

However, he didn't directly chop with an axe, but carefully observed it again, and after a hundred breaths, he already felt that he could chop in his heart.

Qiao Yuan tentatively split an axe, but when this axe went down, the firewood was completely divided into two pieces, which made him quite excited.

"It may be that I was used to not using my eyes to observe last night, but during the day, my vision is better, and my heart and eyes are together, so that I am more proficient in feeling the firewood, and it seems that the effect of chopping firewood at night is indeed better. ”

Qiao Yuan thought about it carefully and thought of the key point.

So he picked up another piece of firewood, first rubbed the lines on it, measured the length and width, and thought about how much force it took to split such a large firewood before.

Then set the firewood, and then carefully observe the place where the firewood falls to ensure that there will not be much deviation when the axe is dropped.

Finally, keep a certain distance between your feet, so that your body should be as steady as a rock when swinging the axe, without the slightest shaking, and the strength and direction of the axe should not deviate in the slightest.

After that, Qiao Yuan raised and fell with an axe, and a piece of firewood was divided into two, and the two halves of firewood were very symmetrical and neat.

Although this matter is quite simple to describe, but it is even more difficult to actually do, the so-called miss is a thousand miles, if the heart, eyes, body, and strength are the slightest mistake in that link, the firewood that is chopped out must be unqualified.

Qiao Yuan has slowly comprehended the true meaning of it, so he will observe every piece of firewood very carefully, and he will use all his energy to treat every piece of firewood.

Unconsciously, Qiao Yuan seemed to have mastered a rhythm, and under this rhythm, there would hardly be any mistakes.

He also forgets the passage of time at this rhythm. Two hours passed, and Tie Mo was holding a small beast with scales on his first-born triangular body, and a large basket on his back, in which there was a faint sound of "squeaking" and "hissing".

"Xiaoyuan, this is all from you in the morning?"

Tie Mo walked in just in time to see Qiao Yuan chopping firewood, and in a blink of an eye, he saw a pile of firewood stacked behind him, all of which were neat and regular firewood.

There was surprise in his eyes, he really couldn't imagine that he had only been out for four or five hours, and Qiao Yuan had chopped out seven or eight hundred catties of firewood, which exceeded the results of yesterday's day and night in a few hours.

However, after he said the question in his heart, he didn't see Qiao Yuan respond, and when he looked at it, his face showed a look of more shock than before, and his eyes widened, revealing a thick look of disbelief.

"It's ...... Sink into the state of mind, abandon everything, and close all the senses of the outside world. How is this possible? No, it's just a preliminary contemplation, not a complete immersion, but it's too unbelievable. ”

Tie Mo walked to Qiao Yuan's side and observed carefully, but Qiao Yuan didn't seem to see Tie Mo or hear his words, and was still repeating the cycle of observation and chopping wood, like a puppet.

The state of contemplation, this is an extremely strange and complex state.

To put it simply, when a person is extremely focused on one thing, he puts all his mind into it, abandons all the miscellaneous things, closes off all the five senses that have nothing to do with the things he is concerned about, and when this state reaches the extreme, he can even forget his breath and heartbeat.

When a person enters the state of contemplation, his understanding of the things he is concerned about will also reach an unprecedented height, and all impossible things can be completed in the state of contemplation.

Therefore, this state is also what all monks dream of entering, and if they enter it while cultivating exercises or refining weapons, refining medicines, or studying formations, then they will definitely make great progress.

However, this state is not something that can be entered casually, it is related to understanding, spiritual power and various factors, such as the right time, place and people, and so on.

Moreover, it is not possible for everyone to enter, even if it is highly gifted and has extraordinary understanding, it is difficult for them to reach this state.

Although Tie Mo's cultivation was unfathomable, when he saw Qiao Yuan, who was still a mortal, enter the realm of deep heart, his shock and disbelief were unimaginable.

Tie Mo carefully observed the time of a cup of tea on the side, the shock and disbelief on his face slowly faded, he shook his head slightly, sighed a few times and walked to the stove.

Fortunately, Qiao Yuan had never watched Tie Mo boiling soup at this time, otherwise he would have been nauseous to the point of vomiting.

Soon after Tie Mo boiled the medicinal soup, Qiao Yuan woke up from his strange state, and as soon as he woke up, he smelled a pungent smell.

When he turned his head, he saw Tie Mo standing by the stove and beckoning to him, and then saw a bowl of unknown liquid on the stove, and the smell was wafting out of that bowl.

When Qiao Yuan saw this scene, he sighed in his heart, knowing that this must be the medicinal soup that Tie Mo had boiled for him.

But there was no way, so I had to walk over with a bitter face, glanced at the medicine bowl, and saw that there was a bowl of green liquid in it, and there were green foams on it that exploded from time to time, which was really infiltrating.

"Uncle Tie, this soup ...... Looks ......"

"Xiaoyuan, don't be afraid, this soup is not poisonous, if you don't drink this soup, your physical strength will not be able to keep up, and if your physical strength cannot keep up, you will naturally not be able to finish chopping firewood. ”

Qiao Yuan stammered, and before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Tie Mo directly, with a sinister smile on his face.

He looked at Tie Mo's face, shook his head helplessly, gritted his teeth and pinched his nose and drank the bowl of green medicinal soup.

After Qiao Yuan finished drinking, he hurriedly ran to the water tank and drank a lot of water, which eased his strength, and then he gasped twice, and walked towards the pyre with a wry smile, he looked at the stack of firewood that was already piled up behind him, and pondered.

"Just now I seem to have entered a strange state, this state can allow me to devote all my mind to chopping firewood, even Uncle Tie came back I don't know, if I enter this state again, I have the confidence to chop a thousand catties of firewood in a day. ”

Qiao Yuan picked up the firewood and began to observe, and his mind completely fell on the firewood in front of him.

After an hour of chopping wood repeatedly, he did not enter that strange state again, which made him quite helpless, but he knew that being in a hurry would only be self-defeating, and he still observed, chopped wood, and repeated all the actions.

Night fell again, and there was no moon in the night.

Qiao Yuan basically couldn't see the lines and length and width on the firewood clearly, so he could only rely on his own hands to feel it, and slowly groped for all this, but fortunately, he had adapted a little last night, and he wouldn't be unable to start tonight.

But Qiao Yuan's time to chop a piece of firewood was several times longer, and sometimes a stick of incense could split a piece of firewood.

Qiao Yuan didn't show the slightest hint of anxiety, and still felt the firewood in his hand unhurriedly, as if he had completely forgotten the time, no matter how long it took to chop the firewood in his hand.

Although chopping firewood is getting slower and slower, I know more about firewood, and the skills of chopping firewood are also more skillful, and that rhythm is slowly getting back.

"Click...... Click...... Click...... Click...... Click...... Click......"

The click of chopping wood was particularly obvious in the silent night, as if there was a kind of magic affecting people's minds, Qiao Yuan was attracted by this rhythmic sound, and slowly forgot everything, and continued a series of actions of chopping wood.

The sky gradually brightened, but Qiao Yuan was not moved at all, but as his line of sight improved, his speed gradually increased.

From a stick of incense to a piece of firewood, to a half-pillar of incense to split a piece of firewood, until the sky was completely bright, and a red glow appeared in the sky, Qiao Yuan's speed was as fast as a piece of firewood.

But this is not Qiao Yuan's limit, until the sun fully rises and the sun shines in the small courtyard, Qiao Yuan can almost pick up a piece of firewood and touch it up and down to move the axe to split, and finally Qiao Yuan stabilized at ten breaths to split a piece of firewood, and the rhythm of "click" also stabilized at ten breaths and echoed once.

Tie Mo was sleeping at this time, but was woken up by the sound of "click" that echoed once in ten breaths.

He got up and walked outside the house and saw Qiao Yuan pick up the firewood, touch it up and down, put it on the stake and axe it down, and the two halves were neat.

Tie Mo's eyes immediately widened when he saw this scene, the shock on his face was incomprehensible, and there seemed to be countless doubts echoing in his mind.

"This is a complete immersion in the state of mind? demon, he really managed to completely sink into the state of mind, this kind of physique ......"

Tie Mo muttered to himself dumbfounded, his face full of envy, and then shook his head, as if he had thought of something, and said no more.

Tie Mo looked at the chopped firewood behind Qiao Yuan again, although it was only a few hundred catties, but Tie Mo's face was not worried, and he laughed out loud, not afraid that the laughter would disturb Qiao Yuan.

He knew that if an ordinary person entered this kind of realm, even if someone went up and slashed him, he would not wake up, unless he could directly attack his mind, so monks generally need to enter this kind of state in a safe and secret place, or have a reliable person to protect them.

"Click...... Click...... Click...... Click...... Click...... Click......"

The sky gradually darkened, and the chopped firewood stack behind Qiao Yuan was almost three thousand catties, but he still never woke up, and he still observed, wielded, observed, and swung the axe This repetitive action was until a gray-robed and white-haired old man walked into the small courtyard of the fence, and this old man was Xiao Fengqing. As soon as Xiao Fengqing entered the door, he saw Qiao Yuan who had entered the realm of Shen Xin, his eyes froze, the expression on his face changed, he didn't bother Qiao Yuan with an exclamation, and walked directly into the house, and after a while, Xiao Fengqing walked out slowly, followed by Tie Mo.

"Xiaoyuan, you did a good job, you really didn't disappoint grandpa. ”

Xiao Fengqing stood beside Qiao Yuan and spoke leisurely, his voice seemed to have some kind of characteristic, which suddenly woke up Qiao Yuan, who had entered the state of contemplation.

"Grandpa Xiao, you ...... It's all me...... Split?"

Qiao Yuan had just woken up, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but he suddenly saw Xiao Fengqing standing beside him, and his mind moved, and he turned his head to see the tall stacks of firewood piled up behind him, his face showed disbelief, and he stammered.

"Haha...... It's all your split, you're in a state of contemplation, so you don't know everything about the outside world. ”

Tie Mo laughed and explained to Qiao Yuan.

"Grandpa didn't expect that you could really enter the realm of contemplation with a mortal heart, it is indeed a little unexpected, you have to think carefully when you go back, it will be very beneficial to your future cultivation. ”

Xiao Fengqing had a kind look on his face, and his eyes showed a strong look of appreciation.

"Sink in the heart?"

Qiao Yuan looked puzzled, and didn't seem to understand this realm very well.

"You'll understand after you cultivate, don't think about it, you just need to remember the feeling of that strange state just now, and figure it out carefully. Grandpa came over to see how your workout results, but I didn't expect it to surprise grandpa, Xiaoyuan, grandpa is very satisfied, hehe......"

Xiao Fengqing looked at Qiao Yuan, the kindness on his face became even stronger, and he praised Qiao Yuan and chuckled.

"Grandpa Xiao, Xiaoyuan remembered. By the way, did Grandpa Xiao succeed in refining medicine?"

Qiao Yuan smiled and nodded, and then asked about refining medicine with a look of concern on his face.

"Well, the medicine has been refined, as short as half a year, as much as a year, Qingxuan can come to his senses, hehe......"

Xiao Fengqing nodded, with a look of joy on his face, said a few words to Qiao Yuan, and chuckled.

"In this case, grandpa will leave, and during this time, you will come to your Uncle Tie every day to exercise, which will be very beneficial to your cultivation in the future. ”

After Xiao Fengqing finished speaking, he walked towards the outside of the small courtyard, Qiao Yuan nodded heavily after listening to Xiao Fengqing's words, and decided in his heart that he would not be greedy for fun in the future, and exercise seriously to lay the foundation for future cultivation.
