Ma Xiaoyao's face was full of shock. The old monk actually said that he was one hundred and one years old? How is this possible? The old monk only looked about sixty years old... Even if he could take care of himself again, he couldn't be forty years younger, right?
Lei Dazhuang also looked surprised, only Monk Huiping looked calm.
"I am indeed one hundred and one years old this year." The old monk nodded and smiled.
"This...this..." Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched fiercely: "But your appearance..."
"Sometimes what the eyes see is not necessarily true." The old monk smiled and said: "I do look young, but my actual age is indeed over a hundred years old. You must ask...why do I look so young?"
How about being so young? In fact, it is very simple, because I practice internal strength. If you practice internal strength to a high level, you can not only extend your life, but also delay aging."
Although the old monk said it very seriously, Ma Xiaoyao was still a little unbelievable. He turned to look at the monk Huiping: "Is everything he said true?"
Monk Huiping nodded seriously: "Master is right, he is indeed over a hundred years old."
"This... this... this is unbelievable." Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched uncontrollably: "Obviously he is more than a hundred years old, but he looks only sixty years old, and he walks as fast as flying. His physique is so good, so
Unbelievable."
"This is the magic of internal strength." The old monk said with a smile: "If I had not practiced internal strength, I would have died long ago. God favored me and allowed me to join the Shaolin Temple by chance, and then I learned advanced skills.
Internal strength allows me to extend my life, and I am really grateful to God for his kindness to me."
"Then what...since you have cultivated your inner strength to a high level, how long can you live?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"I don't know." The old monk shook his head: "No one can know how long he can live... However, I feel that I am still in good health, and I estimate that I can live for a few more years."
"It's amazing! Internal strength is really amazing!" Ma Xiaoyao exclaimed, "It would be great if I could also practice internal strength."
"It's too late." The old monk shook his head: "You are too old, and the meridians in your body have been completely established, and you can no longer practice internal strength." At this point, the old monk paused: "Practice internal strength is very difficult.
If ten thousand people practice at the same time, it would be good if only one succeeds in the end."
"I know that there are several herbs in the world that can reshape the meridians." Ma Xiaoyao said, "As long as I can find these herbs, I can reshape the meridians, and then I can practice internal strength."
"The herbs you mentioned have long since disappeared." The old monk said, "It is impossible to find them."
"The world is so big, there are always places that humans have neglected." Ma Xiaoyao said firmly: "I will not give up, I will definitely find the herb to reshape the meridians!"
"You really won't give up until you reach the Yellow River." The old monk sighed: "People must learn to accept the reality and not get into trouble... Forget it, let's not talk about these boring things. Let's talk about something else."
Here, the old monk glanced at Ma Xiaoyao: "Can you tell me about what's going on outside?"
"Master, what do you want to hear?" Ma Xiaoyao smiled.
"Anything is fine!" the old monk said: "Let me tell you, I haven't been out for more than thirty years, so I am relatively unfamiliar with the outside world..."
"You haven't been out in thirty years?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "You...you can really endure loneliness."
"The greatest ability of a monk is to endure loneliness." The old monk said with a smile: "When I was young, I had a very hot temper. I often secretly ran down the mountain to play. When I saw something unpleasant, I would take action. Every time
They would cause a lot of trouble to the Shaolin Temple. My master had to worry about it at that time... Later, as I got older, my personality became calmer and I was no longer so nostalgic for the outside world. Later, I became obsessed with Buddhist scriptures and had nothing to do.
I just studied Buddhist scriptures, and thirty years passed in a flash... I had planned to grow old like this, but God suddenly sent you to me and told me a lot of nonsense, which made me feel silent.
My heart suddenly started to feel alive again... Haha, I said this, can you understand?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I understand."
"Now that you understand, tell me about the outside world." The old monk said with a smile.
"Hmm...Okay, then I'll tell you..." Ma Xiaoyao then described the outside world, and then picked up a few more important things to talk about.
The old monk nodded while listening: "I didn't expect that the outside world has changed so much. Compared with thirty years ago, it is like the sky and the earth... Such a rich and colorful world, I really want to go out and take a closer look."
"Then you go out." Ma Xiaoyao said: "Go out and walk around and take a look. It will be of great help to you in understanding life."
"I will go out, but I need to wait for a while." The old monk smiled.
"If the master really goes out, you must find me. I live in the capital. This is my mobile phone number. When you arrive in the capital, call me and I will treat you well." Ma Xiaoyao took something from his arms.
He took out a card and handed it to the old monk. Ma Xiaoyao's mobile phone number and name were printed on the card.
"Don't worry, I will definitely bother you." The old monk put the card away.
Next, Ma Xiaoyao talked about some outside things. When he talked about interesting things, everyone burst into laughter. Unknowingly, it was early in the morning, and everyone gathered around and chatted for several hours.
"Okay, it's getting late, I'm going back to sleep." The old monk stood up, stretched out his hand to pat the dust on the monk's robe, and then raised his feet to leave. After taking a few steps, the old monk suddenly stopped:
"Oops, I suddenly want to box. Hey...I'm going to box. Don't peek..." At this point, the old monk suddenly started boxing on the spot. His body flashed like a ghost. His boxing skills were exquisite, and every punch was
Make a deafening sound.
Monk Huiping and Lei Dazhuang both watched with wide eyes. When they saw the excitement, they would raise their hands to make signs... To describe it in one word, it would be "fascinating".
Ma Xiaoyao also looked at it very seriously, but what he saw was only superficial skills, and he couldn't understand anything too profound. He just felt that the old monk was very powerful.
The old monk's punching speed was getting slower and slower, and every move was performed to its fullest. "Hey!" The old monk punched hard and hit a boulder hard. No sound was made, and the boulder was still stable.
Place it appropriately in its place.
"Oh, you can't do it if you don't accept old age. After a little exercise, you can only breathe heavily. I'm old. I'm really old." After sighing a few words, the old monk left with a steady pace.
"Wow..."
Not long after the old monk left, the boulder that the old monk punched fell apart and turned into a pile of small stones of equal size. The diameter of this boulder reached two meters and weighed more than two hundred kilograms. Such a huge piece
The stone was shattered by the old monk's punch, and it seemed that the old monk had not used all his strength. This... this is too terrifying!
"It's amazing!" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with shock.
"Bang bang bang..."
Lei Dazhuang and Monk Huiping suddenly started fighting.
"Hey, why are you fighting again? Stop! Stop it quickly!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted loudly.
Lei Dazhuang and Monk Huiping ignored Ma Xiaoyao at all and continued to fight selflessly. Moreover, both sides struck very hard, attacking each other's vital parts.
"Stop it! Do you hear me? Stop it!" Ma Xiaoyao was anxious.
Not only did Lei Dazhuang and Monk Huiping not stop, they started fighting even more fiercely.
"I'll say it one last time! Stop it immediately! Do you hear me? Stop it!" Ma Xiaoyao roared angrily.
"Crack, crackle, crackle..."
Lei Dazhuang and Monk Huiping exchanged more than ten punches in a row, and then they both flew backwards. "Plop..." They both fell to the ground, their faces pale, breathing heavily, and there was faint blood flowing from the corners of their mouths.
"Hahaha... so happy! So happy!" Lei Dazhuang looked up to the sky and laughed.
"It's indeed very enjoyable!" Monk Huiping also laughed.
"There's nothing wrong with you!" Ma Xiaoyao yelled hurriedly: "Look at how embarrassed you are now... Can't you talk clearly if you have something to say? Why are you fighting!"
Lei Dazhuang waved his hand: "Brother Ma, you don't understand."
"What don't I understand?" Ma Xiaoyao stared at Lei Dazhuang.
"Brother Ma, we didn't fight, we were just comparing boxing skills." Lei Dazhuang said with a smile.
Monk Huiping nodded: "Yes, we were just exchanging boxing skills."
"Sparring boxing skills?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? Am I so easy to deceive?"
"Brother Ma, listen to me. The master boxed in front of us just now. I was deeply touched and understood a lot of the secrets of boxing, so I couldn't help but compete with Monk Huiping." Lei Dazhuang explained.
road.
"Is this really the case?" Ma Xiaoyao looked a little confused.
"Lei Dazhuang is right. Master just practiced boxing in front of us, which gave me some insights. In order to learn more, I couldn't help but compete with Lei Dazhuang." Hui Pinghe
Shang said.
Ma Xiaoyao blinked: "You all understand, but why don't I understand?"
"Because you didn't pay attention." Monk Huiping shook his head and said, "So I didn't understand... I really got lucky today. I actually saw my master practicing boxing with my own eyes. It's so rare, it's so rare..."
"Huiping, let me ask you, is your master's kung fu very powerful?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
