Wu Pen's work Perfect Husband Perfect Husband Episode 41 Spirit Tree

  ……

  "These are fallen leaves from the mountain, picked up by a monk and then crushed to make tea." replied Zhikong.

  These tea leaves are actually tree leaves. Is it because the spiritual energy here is too rich, so even the tree leaves have spiritual energy?

  It seems that when I go back, I will bring some tea leaves from Puzhao Temple.

  Puzhao Temple's rest time is earlier than Liangfu County.

  After finishing tea, Jie Neng took Ao Wu back to the Zen room, and soon the whole yard fell into silence.

  The distant howling of jackals and wolves could be heard, Ao Wu sat on the couch, closed his six senses, and the tea he had just drunk seemed to have taken effect. As soon as he started practicing the Qigong technique, a purer spiritual energy was absorbed into his meridians from his chest.

  That kind of absorption feeling, so fast and so much, made Ao Wu feel a refreshing sensation that reached his bones!

  Afraid that his mind would collapse and lose control in this refreshing feeling, Ao Wu hurriedly gathered his thoughts and controlled the divine platform.

  Although it was controlled with great effort, the circulation of the Qi Refining Technique still felt incredibly refreshing, and there was always a feeling that one wanted to shout out loud.

  The tea water of Puzhao Temple is so effective, it's great, I must drink a few more cups.

  This refreshing feeling lasted until the second half of the night, and the spiritual energy in the chest gradually decreased, and the refreshing feeling slowly disappeared.

  Kao Wu opened his eyes and let out a satisfied sigh.

  He took a look at his cultivation and found that he had already reached the middle of the first layer of foundation building.

  This spirit tea water is really a great tonic.

  What a treasure in the Temple of Bitterness, this trip into the mountains is really a big gain.

  Zhī Kōng and Jiè Néng were not cultivators, yet they had always been drinking such precious tea water, which could be said to be nature's reward for them.

  People are like this too, on the surface it looks like they're having a hard time, but in reality they're holding onto their treasure. Happiness is often not something that can be seen with the eyes.

  He gathered his mind, and Ao Wu continued to consolidate the spiritual energy he had just attracted. The Qi-refining technique circulated for more than a dozen small cycles before stopping. He lay on the bed and soon fell asleep.

  The next day, Ao Wu woke up, washed and exercised in the yard. The sound of Zhikong doing his morning lessons came from Zhikong's Zen room, but Jie Neng was nowhere to be seen, apparently he had gone to fetch water again.

  No way, you're not going to pee in the creek again, are you?

  Should this matter be told to Zhi Kong, the guardian of this minor?

  However, under the temptation of tea leaves, Ao Wu was too lazy to care about this trivial matter.

  After he finished boxing, he went into the kitchen and rummaged around, finding some leftover tea leaves in a jar.

  There is only one can left at the bottom.

  He carelessly wrapped it in a cloth and poured out half of the tea leaves.

  Can people in cultivation talk about stealing? No, this is for cultivation.

  And tea leaves are made from fallen leaves in the mountains, and Little Monk can make them again at any time. Special products, some of them, right?

  Qiao Wu left without any guilt.

  After a while, Jian Neng indeed came back with a bucket of water and poured it into the water tank.

  After dinner, Ao Wu went out as usual.

  As soon as he walked out of the temple gate, he heard a strange voice coming from the kitchen: "There seemed to be a lot more last night, how did it decrease? Alas, I originally wanted to be lazy, it seems that in the next few days, I will have to go pick leaves to make tea again."

  He came to the tree of yesterday, as usual, meditating and practicing, at noon he didn't stop, continued to practice until dusk, then headed towards Pu Zhao Temple.

  He could have practiced a bit longer, but he was thinking about drinking tea in his heart, so he went back ahead of time.

  He made an excuse that he was out to find medicine and couldn't return empty-handed. So on the way, he picked up a few herbs.

  Back at Puzhao Temple, the gate was still open. Qian Neng had just brought up the dishes and returned, what perfect timing.

  Zhī Kōng smiled benevolently at ào Wǔ.

  After dinner, as usual, they drank tea.

  Kao Wu greedily asked for a second cup. Jie Neng said, "This tea is good to drink one cup of, drinking two cups will cause bloating and insomnia."

  Zhī Kōng smiled and waved his hand: "Shàng Xiāng Chá."

  He's been babbling on and on, these tea leaves are almost all gone, there aren't many left, and Ao Wu still wants to have two more servings, isn't this just asking for trouble, isn't this making him go make tea ahead of time?

  After finishing their tea, the three men returned to their own quarters to sleep.

  Ao Wu hastily sat down, started the Lian Qi Jue, and that refreshing feeling that made people feel extremely excited came again, like a flood of water overflowing and burying Ao Wu!

  The pleasure disappeared by the second half of the night after practicing.

  Kao Wu was slightly stunned, tonight's absorption amount was only 30% more than last night.

  This also means that after drinking two cups of tea, 70% of the spiritual energy has been lost.

  It seems that Ao Wu can only retain a little spiritual energy from the tea water he drinks when he is not absorbing, and it will be lost if he exceeds three cups.

  Just now heard that drinking too much can cause bloating and insomnia, it seems the reason is here.

  Early in the morning, I got up to practice boxing. When I went back after fetching water, I saw Ao Wu and couldn't help but smile mischievously, saying: "Master Shifu, you must not have slept well last night."

  "It's okay, it's okay." Ao Wu smiled in response.

  Talking about Qie Neng, he is a lazy and idle monk.

  The tea leaves at the bottom of the can were almost gone, but he didn't rush to pick tree leaves.

  Kao Wu thought about what kind of leaves he was looking at. At the very least, before leaving, he would take a look at the new tea leaves he had made.

  However, he took the tea leaves from the bottom of the can and gave them to his master to drink for two days, finally finishing them off before going to pick tree leaves.

  Watching Qian take out a long pole and head out the door, Ao Wu knew he wanted to go hit leaves, so he followed behind him to take a look.

  He didn't just hit one tree or one kind. He went to five or six places, hitting down the leaves and collecting them in a cloth sack.

  He came back at noon.

  "Hey, little master Qian, this tea is really good. Can you prepare a portion and send it to me?" Ao Wu didn't plan on stealing this time, instead asking openly for the specialty.

  "Master said earlier that he would make these teas and give them all to you." Jian Neng didn't even lift his head, took out the leaves from his bag and put them into a stone pot.

  Master Zhikong is really great.

  I really want to tell Master Zhī Kōng's nine cylinders on his head: I love you so much!

  Since this tea is his own, he doesn't stand on ceremony.

  Kao Wu squatted down and took a look. This is what the leaves are, this time Master Zhi Kong gave it to himself, next time he can pick some to make tea.

  Unfortunately, Ao Wu didn't know much about trees and couldn't identify them by their leaves.

  "Huh?" He suddenly froze, feeling that the last leaf looked very familiar.

  These leaves are a bit like fig leaves, but they're clearly not fig leaves. They're whiter than fig leaves.

  The most important thing is that the tree leaves' stomata release a spirit energy.

  Release the spirit?

  He opened his mouth wide, and his mind thought of the Ling Tree that had perished with him before he crossed over.

  Isn't there just a single leaf left on the tree trunk of Ling Shu?

  He had traveled back in time to ancient times and planned to cultivate to a certain level before going to Tubo to find that spiritual tree again.

  Now I've even seen the leaves of this spiritual tree on Mount Tai...

  Is there also a divine tree on Mount Tai?

  He racked his brain to recall every place he had passed by earlier, every tree, and the Spirit Tree must be one of them.

  He suddenly stood up and ran outside.

  "Eh, eh, Master, where are you going?" Jian Neng shouted.

  Kao Wu's voice came back from afar: "I'm going to find the last herb."

  Soon, he disappeared into the forest.

  Along the road where Qian could have walked before, Ao Wu searched every single tree.

  This isn't it!

  This one isn't!

  This one isn't either!

  Nothing at all. This is impossible, Qian Neng's four tubes just hit the leaves of the Ling tree a moment ago, how can there be nothing!

  They had already searched five places, and there were six kinds of leaves in Jian Neng's bag, which means that one place had not been found yet.

  Just now, when I was following Jian Neng, my subconscious mind thought that after a while, I would go to the temple to check if there were any leaves. So at the fifth tree, he didn't follow too closely. Now thinking about it, the time it took for Jian Neng to hit the leaves of the fifth tree was obviously longer than usual. That is to say, Jian Neng may have gone to another place to hit the leaves of the Ling Tree.

  It must be so.

  He quickly found the clue on the lawn, and walked into a secluded forest along the trail of trampled grass, where the surrounding trees grew denser and the spiritual energy increased.

  Kao Wu's heart was delighted, no mistake, it should be here.

  At this time, don't go to see the lawn, just run directly to where there is the most spiritual energy.

  The grass and trees here are very dense, and as you walk further in, except for a small path that can be walked on, other places cannot be walked through.

  Squeezing through the gap between two trees, a refreshing spirit rushed towards me, and what appeared before my eyes was a tree with white leaves.

  The spiritual tree I saw in my previous life had only one trunk and a tender leaf, with thousands of annual rings, and fifty or sixty adults could encircle it by holding hands. The spiritual tree in front of me now is as thick as a washbasin, twenty meters high, with lush crown leaves.

  They differ too much, but still can be recognized well, this is Ling Shu.

  Ling Shu Miao.

  Ah! Looking at the whole spiritual tree's leaves releasing a faint spiritual energy, Ao Wu was so excited that he couldn't catch his breath!

  With this spiritual tree, cultivating here will be a doubly effective endeavor. No longer will you have to endure the slow and laborious cultivation speed of before, with progress unfolding at a snail's pace.

  With this spiritual tree, one's cultivation will definitely improve rapidly. Next time I see Qing Tao, I won't have to be chased and escape again.

  With this spiritual tree, I want to cultivate myself to the peak and return to the foreign realm, find my master sister, and it will no longer be a fantasy that only appears in dreams!

  At this moment, Ao Wu was excited and full of confidence, with a bright future ahead.

  Ancient times were great, treasures everywhere.

  The spiritual energy in this mountain is so dense, I'm afraid it's related to this spirit tree.

  However, the spiritual energy dispersed into the air would slowly thin out and eventually evaporate, so Ao Wu's first thought was to set up a spirit-gathering array here to nurture the spiritual energy.

  The trees around the Ling Tree are also very dense, and Ao Wu needs to clear them away before setting up the Ling Array.

  Of course, in order for the Ling tree to grow well, it is also necessary to help it get rid of these nutrient competitors.

  Without hesitation, he took out his willow-leaf knife and slashed left and right. Trees as big as the Ling Tree fell one by one. By dusk, an area of five or six meters around the Ling Tree had been cleared.
