Chapter 7 Acrobatic arts

　　In her previous life, Le Peopeo was a strong handmade person, no matter it was jewelry, clothes, shoes, bags, all of them could be cottage, and add their own design inspiration to make the products more beautiful. In addition to the handmade, the materials used are meticulous, and therefore opened the online store business is superb, is a small rich woman of the dead home. 　　Nowadays, she is poor in material goods, but she is able to draw styles. Hairpins, bracelets, rings, necklaces, combs, brooches, and so on, the village girls on the other side were delighted, and almost instantly worshipped her. Even so, surprisingly no one suspected how a fool like her suddenly became like this, they all thought it was a natural ability. 　　The whole village really is very two-dimensional. 　　And she had underestimated Huai Blacksmith. In her opinion, a blacksmith playing jewelry is like Zhang Fei holding an embroidery needle. But never thought, this appearance like a scholar, the village agricultural tools are all through his hands to build the strange man, actually follow the model, spent three days to do it all. Not exquisite, but the shape is not bad, for the chopsticks inserted in the hair as a hairpin, wrapped in a piece of flower cloth or wear a flower even if the village girls dress up, is simply a work of art. 　　Le Piao Piao to their own design is an owl-shaped pendant, white flowers on a black background, heart-shaped stone when the owl's body, the size of a quail's egg, the head modeling is to carve a pattern of brass to do, fused with a small Ichirou's copper kettle, the eyes of the two red beans, a strange tree from the mountains to pick, the lower part of the Le Piao Piao red silk thread to do the tassel pendant, actually ... ... ...very pretty. 　　The village flower Zimo's bracelet also wants a similar pattern, only the wristband is made of leather. When the village chief Xia Ningfeng saw it, he stomped his foot and yelled, "Why did you get two night owls, how unlucky." 　　Zi Mo ignored her father and was happy that her bracelet could make a pair with Le Piao Pei's necklace. 　　Le Piao Piao was also happy because she heard that since she came to this imperial village with the three masters ten years ago, it had been Zi Mo who took care of her living and living, which made her finally let go of her mental burden. Well at least, this new body is also sixteen years old, if she let the three masters take turns taking care of her because she can't handle her life, wouldn't she be looked at? They were only twenty-six years old young men, and all of them were still good looking. 　　Thus, she felt more intimate and grateful to Zi Mo. 　　Also, she listened to the "mother" Feng Jiu told, the Taoist sect has six arts, that is, alchemy, talisman making, artifact making, array, spirit, as well as spells, the other five arts she does not know, but Huaibei blacksmith is obviously a genius of refining ah, can take the blacksmith furnace to create jewelry, this control and technology, so waste it is not a pity? 　　Seeing that half of the waxing moon, there are still fifteen days to the New Year, but the village is a clean pot and cold stove, Le Piao Piao can't help but use her brain to want to improve the life of the village. In the public, everyone has benefits, in the private ...... she will try to find ways to live a comfortable day wherever she goes. 　　The village is poor like this, throttling is no need to think about, and then section will have to starve to death. No one in the village is a foundation stage, say even if the foundation stage can only intermittent grain, only to the jindan stage can completely cut off the food of the world. Therefore, the village people all feel that they are running on the Avenue of Immortal Cultivation, but Le Piao Piao feels that they have already run straight off. 　　Then, the only way to do it is to open the source. 　　But now it is winter, nothing can be planted, now raising poultry and livestock is also too late, it can only develop itself. 　　To do hard labor? Everyone knows that you can't find a job at the end of the year. 　　Going to a rich man's house to rob the rich and give to the poor? No, this kind of organized crime activity is very need of technicality, cooperation must also be good, untrained villagers, but also so two, certainly not competent, and then the whole village together caught, in the prison for the New Year how to be good? 　　Come to think of it, in this time of celebration, only to engage in recreational activities is reliable, and the opportunity to make a lot of money. 　　"Acrobatics?" When Le Piao Piao raised this idea at the general meeting of all villagers, Village Chief Xia was very surprised. 　　The three masters sat bashfully on the side, because they had heard Le Piao Piao's whimsical ideas before, so they weren't shocked, but they were a bit unable to hold their heads up. After Peopeo became smart, she often had some scary ideas, it was the three of them who didn't educate and take care of them well. They were sorry for Piao Piao, for themselves, and for the whole village. 　　"It's acrobatic art." Le Piao Piao keyed in on the words. 　　The village is very democratic, anyway, there are only thirty or so people, if something happens, everyone will gather in the ancestral hall to discuss it, and then raise their hands to decide, the minority obeys the majority. 　　"But we are cultivators." Tian Youjia objected with a frown, speaking everyone's mind, "Even though we are hermit cultivators hidden in the folklore, how can we do those things that entertain the common people? And still selling art on the streets? No way, I object." She was the wealthiest person in her village, and she still had new clothes to wear and could afford melons and candies for the New Year. This was so because she had a handful of ancestral medical skills, and people from nearby villages would occasionally seek her out to pay some consultation fees. 　　"Don't rush to object, listen to my reasons." Le Piao Piao waved her hand with a confident chest. 　　The crowd quieted down. 　　"Since I recovered my spiritual wisdom, I've listened to my three masters explain over the past few days, and I've roughly understood what Immortal Cultivation is." Le Piao Piao said with a straight face, "I know that only by successfully reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage can I extend my life to more than three hundred years, otherwise, even if I am at the Great Completion of the Qi Refining Stage, I will only live for a hundred years. But in our village, there has never been a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator right?" 　　The crowd lowered their heads, ashamed, ah, sad. It was important to realize that the progress during the Qi Refining Stage was quite expected for villagers with little talent, but breaking through to the previous level was harder than climbing up to the sky as if it were heaven. 　　"So, in order to increase the time of cultivation, that is, the lifespan, one needs to harden the body and maintain it to the best condition. In that case, one needs to eat and drink well." 　　"There is turbid qi in food, eating too much is not beneficial to cultivation." Tian Youjia took out the model of a village doctor. 　　"Who said food has turbid qi? Everything under the sky, all born with the spirit, all the world, all rely on the aura nourishment, even if the weak aura, we accumulate a little into a lot, but also can go on the road." Le Piao Piao knew that it would be opposed, and had thought of a good speech, this time eloquent, looks very powerful, "In addition, we have a spiritual vein under our feet, planted food is different, otherwise how would the palace want our offerings? As for the turbid qi in the food, we just need to remove the dregs and take the essence, and treat it separately, isn't it good? When we draw qi into our bodies, we also need to remove the dross and take the essence, right?" 　　"That's true." Zi Mo interjected, "My father always says that eating too much is not good, but I only have strength when I'm full, and it seems that my spirit is much better when I cultivate." 　　"Right." Le Peopeo hurriedly pulled the conversation, "Also, why do the immortals also come down to the mortal world to experience robberies? Why do those mighty ones have to enter the world? Without contact with the earthly world, how can we cultivate the Taoist heart? Without an epiphany of the dao heart, how can there be an advancement?" After speaking, she looked at the crowd's reaction. 　　All the villagers froze, including her three masters. Her passage was plausible and aimed at coaxing the villagers to make money, but it was not without reason. The truth that asceticism is always slow, and that cultivation requires cultivation of the heart, was understood by all, but because of their poor qualifications, they were all racing against time as if they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to succeed in building their foundations before they died, so in addition to their daily labors in order to preserve this land with the Spiritual Vein, how could they find the time to get in touch with other people? It was obvious, but no one had ever thought about it. 　　After a long time, Village Chief Xia sighed, "Piao Piao really has a heart like a mirror stone, one word wakes up the dreamer ah." 　　So, it was her who succeeded in fooling the group? Le Peopeo was secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, and still had the same look on her face of "The road is long, the road is far, I will go up and down to find my way". Waiting for everyone to express their approval of this point of view, she then said the specific implementation program. 　　Third Master Miracle was strong and muscular, with a chest that shattered boulders. 　　Second Master Feng Jiu was as light as a swallow, with a graceful posture, walking the rope. 　　Master Master has an inscrutable face, sharp means, magic tricks. 　　Xia village head on stilts, Tian Youjia a penny to diagnose the pulse once, Huai Shusheng hit some common agricultural tools to sell, other village girls and villagers divided into several groups, with the various performances, and then leave a few people to guard the manor house. ...... 　　The people agreed to the idea. 　　After the people discussed and agreed, they began to prepare the next day. Although the villagers are friendly, usually also exchanges the practice of insights, but such a collective exercise has never been, for a while but a little hot and heavy meaning, very few vitality. In the end, it actually made everyone work harder, and also more enthusiastic and focused. 　　On the twentieth day of the Lunar New Year, Le Peopeo led the team to the Imperial City Tongchuan specializing in vaudeville theater bazaar, somewhat similar to the old Beijing's Tianqiao, the old Tianjin's three unregulated areas. Over there, after paying the venue fee, everyone performed as practiced beforehand. 　　The villagers are all hermits, seldom contact and socialize with outsiders, and when they arrive at a crowded place, they are shy, so Le Piao Piao can only go on with her head, and try her best to solicit the audience, introduce the program, and liven up the atmosphere. 　　In modern times, she did not play the style of selling art, but learned a few tricks on TV, actually have a style. And the villagers performances in this world is rarely seen, really attracted a lot of people, coupled with the music Peopeo charges flexible, not only collect money, but also collect new year's goods and so on, three days they gained a lot of money, food and even firecrackers, it seems that the beautiful over the first month of the new year, idle waiting for the beginning of the spring plowing is not a problem at all. 　　Le Piao Piao really want to float up, see the next day is the 23rd day of the lunar new year, she decided not to perform. After all, on this day, the New Year's activities officially began, the people are busy with their own business, will not come to see the program. 　　As she was greeting people and packing up her stall, she suddenly felt as if someone was staring at her. It was a sudden feeling, couldn't tell how she realized it, only felt several sharp gazes. 　　Raising her head to look towards the gatehouse at the entrance of the marketplace, she saw a dark mass that looked like a bird, but the protective color was so wonderful that it actually blended with the roof tiles, and she couldn't even find it unless she looked closely. In fact, even if found, because the bird ball in a ball, far away, did not see too clearly. 　　Looking closer, there was a man standing not far away, seemingly an ordinary spectator watching the program, but his eyes kept sweeping over her.
