Literary cultivation, martial arts cultivation, this is easy to understand.

Literary and martial arts can be regarded as cultivation.

Poison cultivation and medicine cultivation are also considered skills, and this is understandable.

What is the status of smoke repair and alcohol repair?

Li Banfeng asked: "Smoking and drinking are considered cultivation?"

"Forget it, why doesn't it count? Whether it's smoking or drinking, as long as you can get out of the realm, it's all about cultivation!" Qin Xiaopang said quite proudly, "Uncle Liu in our village must drink five kilograms of wine a day. I found out later that

He is a wine repairman on the second floor!"

Ma Wu expressed doubts about this: "What does your second uncle Liu do for a living? Can you afford wine cultivation?"

Not everyone can afford this wine cultivation practice. How much does it cost to practice five kilograms of wine a day?

Qin Xiaopang was unconvinced and said: "Uncle Liu is a wine maker!"

Ma Wu was still doubtful: "Even if he is a winemaker, how many kilograms of wine can he make in a day? He drinks five kilograms of wine a day. Is the home-brewed wine enough for him?"

Li Banfeng felt that Ma Wu was a bit too serious. What if Liu Erbo opened a winery?

Unexpectedly, Ma Wu actually said: "Wine cultivators are not common. I want to see where you, Uncle Liu, are."

Qin Xiaopang puffed up his chest and said, "Dead!"

Ma Wuyi frowned: "How did he die? Don't say he died of drinking!"

It is impossible for a wine cultivator to die drunk.

Qin Xiaopang scratched his head: "It has something to do with drinking, but it doesn't count as drinking to death.

Uncle Liu got drunk that day, jumped into the river, and drowned."

Ma Wu hummed and smiled: "Brother, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that what you said makes no sense. How can a second-level cultivator drown so easily?"

Qin Xiaopang answered seriously: "You can't drown easily. Uncle Liu jumped into the river and swam very happily. It was not a big deal.

The villagers asked him to go ashore quickly, saying that there was a river mouth ahead and the current was fast.

Uncle Liu said that no matter how strong the current was, he was not afraid. He saw the Patriarch, and the Patriarch helped him change his Taoism and made him a water cultivator."

"Water cultivator..." Ma Wu held his chin and thought for a long time, "There is indeed such a sect, but it is not common. Has Erbo Liu really become a water cultivator?"

"I don't know," Qin Xiaopang shook his head and said, "Anyway, I don't believe it, and neither do the people in the village.

In order to prove it to us, Uncle Liu deliberately swam to the strongest and deepest part of the estuary, and even plunged into the mud at the bottom of the river. When we fished him out, his mouth and nose were filled with mud, and he was exhausted.

I’ve long since run out of energy.”

Ma Wu let out a long sigh when he heard this, as if he believed Qin Xiaopang's words: "Jiu Xiu, this gate is too dangerous."

Li Banfeng asked: "How much did Uncle Liu drink that day?"

Qin Xiaopang replied: "I heard they drank twelve kilograms."

No wonder he met the ancestor.

"Twelve kilograms? Can you drink twelve kilograms of water?" Li Banfeng really felt that it was outrageous, but thinking that this little fat man had to eat twenty kilograms of rice, he felt that this place was outrageous.

"Does a wine cultivator have to drink hard?" Li Banfeng wanted to know more about the secrets involved.

"Of course you have to drink hard, otherwise how can you make time?" Qin Xiaopang looked at Li Banfeng seriously.

"What does it mean to make time?" Li Banfeng still didn't understand.

Xiaopang despised Li Banfeng even more: "Why don't you know anything?"

Ma Wu was very patient and explained to Li Banfeng: "No matter which Taoist door you enter, pass the test, or achieve the level, you must practice in the future.

But if you practice step by step, it will take ten years to advance to each level, that is, it will take ten years to go from the first level to the second level. If you want to practice from the entry level to the tenth level, it will take ninety years. Can you afford to wait?

"

Li Banfeng didn't know how to answer.

He didn't know how big the span was from the first floor to the second floor, how big the benefits would be, and whether it was worth the ten years.

Ma Wu then said: "If you don't want to wait, you have to earn back this time. I don't know what the rules are for wine cultivators, but I have seen food cultivators on the first floor who eat five kilograms of rice a day. This is called step-by-step. You can't eat enough.

If you count, your cultivation will regress.

Eating ten kilograms of rice every day is called time earned. The five extra kilograms of rice he eats can help him earn one more day of practice. If he insists on eating ten kilograms every day, he will be promoted to the second level in five years!

If he insists on eating twice as much, he will be able to cultivate to the tenth level in forty-five years instead of ninety years."

"What are the benefits of cultivating to the tenth level?"

Ma Wudao: "In the entire Yaowang Valley, there is not even a sixth-level cultivator. As long as you reach the seventh level, you will be the leader of Yaowang Valley.

Not to mention Yaowanggou, in the entire Puozhou, there are only a handful of tenth-level cultivators, and this is a serious and powerful party!"

Li Banfeng had no interest in the ladle: "If you have cultivated to the tenth level, you will be 70 or 80 years old. If you don't think you are a powerful person, what can you do?"

"What's wrong with the Seven Old Eighties?" Ma Wu smiled, "When you reach the tenth level of cultivation, your life will change, and your life span will be extended three times.

I used to live to be a hundred years old, but now I can live to be three hundred years old, seven to eighty years old. If converted three times, I would be over twenty years old, which is a good age!"

If you cultivate to the tenth level, you will have three times the lifespan!

This is so attractive!

Qin Xiaopang patted his chest and said, "From the day I was born, my neighbors all said that I was blessed. I will definitely be able to obtain these ten levels of cultivation!"

Li Banfeng looked at Little Fatty Qin: "So, Brother Qin will have to eat five kilograms of rice every day from now on?"

"If it's not enough after reaching the second floor..." At this point, Qin Xiaopang was a little worried.

He was not worried that he wouldn't be able to eat, but that he couldn't afford it.

But he had already made his choice, because he knew that he had nothing to do but eat.

Li Banfeng asked: "If you cultivate to the ninth level, how many times can your life span be extended?"

"The ninth level will not be extended!" Ma Wu waved his hand, "You can only change your life after reaching the tenth level. The ninth level is still the life span of an ordinary person. If you don't reach the tenth level in your lifetime, all your efforts will be wasted."

This is a bit harsh. Life cannot be extended before the tenth level.

If you practice step by step, it will take eighty years to reach the ninth level. Even if you start practicing at the age of ten, you will be ninety when you reach the ninth level. Will you still have the strength to continue practicing by then?

This is probably the reason why practitioners want to earn time and shorten their practice time. They all want to reach the tenth level in their lifetime.

"Is this true for every sect?"

Ma Wu nodded: "Every Taoist sect is like this. If you want to change your life, you have to practice with all your strength and rush up to the tenth floor.

If you are a martial arts practitioner, you have to practice hard every day, if you are an arts practitioner, you have to study hard, if you are a food practitioner, you have to eat hard, if you are a joy practitioner, you have to work hard.

Of course, there are also tricks, such as taking medicinal herbs, drinking medicinal decoctions, and taking elixirs. Those things are too expensive and are not a long-term solution."

Li Banfeng thought for a while and asked, "Where is Geng Xiu?"

Qin Xiaopang was startled: "Why did you choose farming? It's not because you want to gain advantage, right?"

Li Banfeng really wants to take advantage of it.

He only had 2,000 yuan on his own and could not afford the powder.

Before Monkey Qiu left, he promised that he would give Li Banfeng the money to choose the medicine, whichever door he chose.

But Li Banfeng is not a shameless person. Two boxes of instant noodles and earning a life are enough. Why should he let others spend so much money on him?

Ma Wu shook his head and said: "Brother Li, you should be careful about this. You can't make money with this bargain. The medicinal powder has no value, it is all the wisdom of the ancestors. The reason why the medicinal powder from Gengxiu is sold cheaply is because no one buys it.

Because farming and cultivating is the most difficult path."

"How do you say this?"

Ma Wudao: "I don't know what the situation is like in other states, but there should be farmers, right? You should know the hard work of farmers.

Planting in spring and harvesting in autumn, working every day without rest, these can only be regarded as step-by-step daily practice.

Spending all your energy searching for good seeds and growing some exotic flowers and plants is a way to earn time.

Brother Li, think about it when you are seventy or eighty years old, will you still be able to farm?

If there is a wind disaster, flood, drought, or locust plague, and the harvest in one year is not enough, not only will you not be able to earn time, but your cultivation may also be damaged.

If you encounter enemies or bad guys who come to steal, rob, or set fire to, you may end up with no income at the end of the year. This will not damage your cultivation, but it will endanger your life.

Brother Li, this road is too difficult, be careful, be very careful!"

It seems that cultivating farming is not an option. Ma Wu is right, this road is indeed too difficult.

Li Banfeng had a general understanding of Huan Xiu and Food Xiu.

"Then how should traveling practitioners practice?"

"Just walking around!" Xiaopang can answer this question, "The more places and farther you walk, the faster your cultivation will grow and the more time you will earn.

People who have no fixed abode like to travel and practice!"

"Where's the home repairman?"
