There have been many hermits in the hot summer since ancient times. Once the practitioners reach a higher level, they will hide themselves deeply. They may escape into the mountains and fields to accompany the cattle and play the flute, or they may hide in the markets and temples and play in the world of mortals.
It's ridiculous that many mortal fools have spent all their efforts to visit the fairyland, thinking that they can open up gold and stones with sincerity, but in the end they are just wasting their efforts.
The most important opportunity for spiritual practice, whether you can get started and whether you can enter the Tao, ultimately depends on the fate.
......
Chu Yi spent most of the day wandering around Laoshan and asked many local residents, but he didn't get any useful information. It was as if this 'small Laoshan Temple' had never existed.
When the sky turned dark, Chu Yi, who had searched to no avail, could only turn back and go down the mountain, preparing to find a good-quality and cheap restaurant to have a full meal before making any plans.
Since I started practicing, I have eaten more and more, and my internal organs have been digesting food faster and faster. The so-called "refining and transforming qi" means refining the essence of food and turning it into the qi of the Dantian.
Chu Yi felt that if he continued like this, he might actually be able to eat a cow one day!
But there is nothing that can be done about it. In today's world, creation has exhausted its vitality and languished, so that Taoism has declined and magical powers have become insignificant. Practitioners cannot absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and absorb the essence of the sun and moon to enrich themselves. If you want to practice Qi,
I can only use the stupidest and simplest method - eat!
But there are also things to pay attention to how and what you eat! Theoretically speaking, the efficiency of Chu Yi's way of eating and drinking is very low, but it can't stand the large amount! And all this is due to the "Five Shapes"
"True explanation".
The five-shaped true solution mainly trains the five internal organs and bypasses the six internal organs. If the five internal organs and six internal organs are strong, it can drive the circulation of qi and blood in the muscles and bones of the whole body. Once the qi and blood circulate, the speed of digestion will be faster, so this is why Chu Yi can eat so much
Food reasons.
And as the cultivation level gradually increases, the speed of digestion will become faster and faster... But if you are a mortal body, there will eventually be a limit. According to Lu Daozhang's speculation, in the acquired realm,
The maximum limit is the food intake of five adult men.
Cultivation has no limits, but the human body has limits, so there is nothing you can do about it!
Just when Chu Yi raised his head and looked around for a restaurant, an old man with a face as dry and wrinkled as haggard tree bark came towards him. He was carrying a small yellow cloth bag, and his figure was light and vigorous as he walked by.
, and also brought a breeze.
Chu Yi's nose moved slightly, and he smelled a faint smell of Chinese medicine in the breeze; generally speaking, the body of an elderly person will inevitably have a turbid smell. This is a sign of decline in life span, and it is also a sign of turbidity in the body.
Caused by excessive anger.
People eat whole grains to fill their stomachs. Grains are grown in the earth. Earth is the image of earth. The sky is clear and the earth is turbid. If you eat it for a long time, it will accumulate the turbid qi of the earth. When the turbid qi fills the body, it is time for people to enter the earth.<
/p>
As for those who practice spiritual practice, they will naturally discharge this turbid air by practicing the movement of Qi internally, removing the waste and retaining the essential essence. Therefore, the practitioners' bodies are basically odorless, and they carry the breeze with them when they walk. This can also be regarded as a sign to identify monks.
But the most important thing is the eyes of this old man. The eyes are the place where the soul is hidden, and they are also one of the external manifestations of cultivation. As long as the monks who have gained the true energy have not reached the state of returning to their original nature with the light and the dust, then in the eyes
A little inspiration cannot be hidden.
Chu Yi was shocked when he accidentally caught a glimpse of this spiritual light. He never thought that he could meet a monk who had cultivated Zhen Qi by chance on the street. What is this called? This is called Yuanfa!
As a result, Chu Yi immediately changed direction and followed the old man not far or near.
I just don’t know whether the old man really didn’t notice it, or he was pretending not to know. In short, the two people, one old and one young, walked silently along the street to an old house, and the name of this house was
Diagonally opposite, in the village not far away, is the site of the 'Da Lao Temple'.
It was already getting late at this time. Chu Yi watched the old man enter the house and followed him to the front of the house, ready to knock on the door. However, as soon as he raised his hand, the door suddenly opened wide, revealing an old man about the same age.
An adult man in his mid-thirties leaned out half of his body and said with a cold face: "What can you do?"
Chu Yi was startled, but he immediately came to his senses, clasping the Ziwu Jue with both hands, he bowed slightly and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I hope you'll bear with me. Do you know where Xiaolao Temple is?"
The man's eyes visibly condensed after hearing the words "Xiao Lao Guan Zhe". After looking at Chu Yi from head to toe, he shook his head and replied, "I don't know, please go." After that, he got ready.
Close the door.
Seeing this, Chu Yi immediately blocked the door and said hurriedly: "I don't know where Xiao Laoguan is, but can you let me see the old man just now?"
"No!" The man refused decisively, and then used both hands to force the young man away.
But Chu Yi's stubborn temper can't be changed by just one word. When he noticed the huge force coming from the door, he immediately straightened his stance, tensed his whole body, and exerted his muscles and bones to counter it.
p>
For a moment, the two of them were in a silent stalemate. One wanted to close the door, and the other wanted to go in. However, this old and old door made a slight click under the collision of the two huge forces.
sound.
After about ten breaths, Chu Yi gradually felt a little exhausted after exerting all his strength. On the other hand, the man had a look of ease from beginning to end, and there was even a hint of ridicule in the corners of his mouth and eyebrows, as if to say,
After all, he is young and has little skill!
Chu Yi knew that if this continued, he would definitely be shut out. There was no chance of winning in a competition of skills, so he could only use tricks!
So he took a sharp breath and held it in his chest, and the inner energy in his Dantian began to circulate crazily, mobilizing energy and blood to enrich his limbs and bones to strengthen his muscles and bones. Then he firmly grasped the ground with both feet and bowed slightly.
Then there was an instant riot, a sudden push with both palms, and an overwhelming force swept away with both palms, just like an old bear standing upright and shaking a tree!
This move is Lao Xiong Shaking the Tree, one of the five Sanshou moves taught by Master Lu. It emphasizes that the power comes from the ground and the upper limbs. Once used, it can easily push an adult man three or four meters away.
Yuan, when practicing in the past, I often used this move to knock down some dry and rotten wood to use as firewood. Although the practice was short and the fire was light, I still had a palm strength of two to three hundred kilograms.
However, today I used it against the enemy for the first time, but it failed to achieve any success.
After the opponent felt the sudden increase in force, although he was pushed back a small step, he reacted instantly. He immediately stood firm and lunged forward, and managed to withstand the huge force.<
/p>
On the other hand, Chu Yi can no longer hold on. Old Bear Shaking the Tree is an explosive move. As for how long it can last, it all depends on the breath held in the chest. After the old strength is gone, there will be a gap before new strength is born.
, it is difficult to continue in the gap.
Just when Chu Yi was gradually pushed back and the door was about to close, a clear and powerful voice suddenly came from the room, "Okay, let him in."
When Chu Yi heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. The two people who were originally competing against each other also had a tacit understanding and withdrew their forces at the same time.
The door gradually opened, and Chu Yi once again held the Ziwu Jue to apologize to the man, and then quickly entered the room, but this time he clenched his fists, but got a response from him.
After Chu Yi saw the Ziwu Jue with his hands together, he immediately felt confident. Then he came to the living room and saw that there were six people in the hall. Among them, the old man was sitting upright on a chair, and the remaining five people were standing on two sides.
On the other hand, I had the illusion of entering a bandit's den...
Chu Yiwen walked up to the old man, bowed his hands and said, "Juniors have met seniors."
The old man waved his hand and said calmly: "Okay, don't make such nonsense. You have been with me for so long. Do you want me to ask for something?"
Chu Yi raised his head and stared closely into the old man's eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "How dare I ask my senior which mountain gate it is and which dharma lineage it is?"
The old man glanced at Chu Yi and said calmly: "Laoshan Mountain, Da Lao Temple."
When Chu Yi heard this, he was a little surprised, wasn't he talking about the Small Lao Temple? What's going on with the Big Lao Temple?
