Chapter 13 Past events, stories, and cultivation matters (two in one)
The dragon's lips are where the sound comes from;
Dragon gums are where chants come from.
Originally, the word "dragon gum" refers to a piece of hardwood at the end of the qin that is used to support the strings. It is a key component of the guqin's ability to produce sound.
This piano is named after Long Gu.
One is to show the true meaning of the sound produced by the piano, taking the meaning of the great sound and the sound, the great way and the simplicity.
The two words "dragon gum" and "dragon chant" have the same pronunciation, which means that the sound of this qin is unusual.
The sound is not ethereal and high-pitched, but rather melancholy and distant, like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, majestic and breathtaking.
Long Gum was born in the long-destroyed ancient country of Daqi 2,300 years ago, and was made by Le Sheng Xi Mengquan himself.
After the fall of Daqi, it traveled thousands of miles and ended up in the hands of Emperor Su Yu of the Liang Dynasty, where it became a treasure that he kept in a high cabinet.
The most well-known and miraculous rumor about this Qin is the story of Xi Mengquan taking the Qin from the Dragon Palace.
This happy saint was unruly by nature. He once casually slept on a rockery rock in the courtyard during his nap, and fell into a hazy dream. His soul left his body and traveled around the Dragon Palace. He saw many wonders that were not seen in the human world, and picked a huge cluster of blood jade corals.
Who would have known that this coral turned out to be the gums of the Sleeping Dragon King!
Suddenly the earth shook, the mountains shook, and the waves surged into the sky. What he thought was the Dragon Palace was actually the huge body of the Dragon King!
At this moment, Xi Mengquan suddenly woke up. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he discovered that the rockery stone under him had turned into the blood jade coral!
Is it a dream or not? Real or illusory?
No matter what, according to legend, Xi Mengquan used this piece of blood jade coral to make the body of Dragon Gum.
But in Chen Kuang's memory, the musician who bought him for a bucket of rice told him something completely different.
"Xi Mengquan didn't travel to the Dragon Palace. How could he be so elegant? This man is very boring."
The musician threw him a worn sheet of music.
This music score is written in Braille and is only circulated among musicians. It is equivalent to secret text and is not known to outsiders.
It records, in addition to the music, some strange country stories that have never been heard before.
"Back then, he passed by Dongting Lake on a boat and saw a dragon king in the lake oppressing the fishermen, forcing them to sacrifice virgins and drown them alive in pig cages. So he abandoned the boat and jumped into the lake, forcibly cutting off the dragon king's big teeth.
Knocked off."
"After he got angry, he found that his sword was broken, and the big tooth that he knocked out happened to be connected to the gum. Seeing that he had the advantage, he washed it in the lake water and sharpened it into a sword."
When the child with his eyes covered with thick bandages heard this, he raised his head and asked doubtfully:
"Isn't it Qin?"
The musician stretched out his hand to touch his head and asked in a very shameless manner:
"How do you know it's a harp? Have you ever seen a harp? Do you know what a harp is?"
The child shook his head and answered honestly:
"I didn't see my family being poor before, but now I can't see it."
The musician smiled:
"Invisible things, of course, whatever you think they are, that's what they are."
"If you think it's a sword, of course it is a sword."
When the road is rough, draw your sword and slay the dragon. The harp is not a harp, but a sword.
This is another story.
But the musician's tone was familiar and calm. He was relaxed and relaxed, as if he knew Xi Mengquan.
However, how is this possible? The musician was so poor that he spent a dou of rice to buy Chen Kuang as his apprentice in order to sell him to the palace.
I bought a bushel of rice and sold it for three taels of silver.
It's simply a worthless transaction.
How could such a scoundrel know the music saint whose song "Heavenly Questions" shattered half the mountains and rivers, as if he was in the clouds?
Chen Kuang once regarded the strange stories recorded in this music score as stories.
Until one day when he was already a court musician.
Emperor Liang was so inspired that he took out the dragon's gum as a bet and asked the musicians of Taichang Temple to have a competition.
Only then did Chen Kuang realize that Long Gu had been silent for thousands of years, and no one could play a complete movement anymore.
Whoever can play one verse will be rewarded with a pure gold goblet.
The musicians rushed to pass around the test notes, but no one could play the second note.
When he arrived at Chen Kuang, he subconsciously thought of the strange country story.
When he was a child, he had never seen a piano or a sword.
To him, both things were just chaotic concepts, confused into one image in his mind.
What if Qin... could be a sword?
"Zheng——"
He played the first note with murderous intent, followed by the unparalleled dragon roar.
But the master attendants around Emperor Liang were instantly alert and drew out their swords from their waists. The noise caused by gold and iron interrupted the beginning of the second verse of the song.
It turns out that is the sword.
Chen Kuang thought like this, even if Emperor Liang begged him again and again, he could no longer continue to play in tune.
This was the only time he was praised by Emperor Liang.
Not long after that day, Chen Kuang, who was in the limelight, was framed and almost whipped to death by Luo Lezheng.
He was unable to play due to an injury to his hand, and was forgotten by Emperor Liang within a few days.
The pure gold cup he was given did not reach his hands in the end, and someone robbed him halfway.
…
Huo Hengxuan watched him carefully adjust the piano, but soon lost interest. He leaned against the railing, gnawing a steamed bun in his mouth, while staring at the sky outside the window.
As the sky darkened, those strange stars appeared again.
But this time, they were no longer stable, but flickered on and off.
Chen Kuang finished debugging and looked down at the piano.
Most of the body of the piano is made of transparent blood jade, but the slightly tilted head of the piano is a moist, snow-white color. The entire piano is narrower and longer than ordinary pianos.
It really looks like a broken tooth connected to the gum.
No matter which of the two stories is true.
Chen Kuang knew that this Dragon Gum was really a sword!
At that time, the experts around Emperor Liang were not unaware of the danger, but actually sensed the danger.
If Chen Kuang had intended it at that time, Emperor Liang's neck would have been cut off on the spot when the first sound of the piano sounded!
This is not some kind of music killing.
This piano is a sword through and through!
A conceptual sword can kill people with just a thought!
Therefore, for thousands of years, no one can play it anymore, and no one can be its close friend.
But probably no one in the world knows about this except Chen Kuang and the musician who bought him and taught him the piano.
Chen Kuang was able to use this "bug" to obtain a weapon that would never be discovered as a prisoner.
This will also be his greatest reliance in the future.
"But then again...who is that musician?"
Chen Kuang had huge doubts in his heart.
After the musician bought him, he was not regarded as raising him. He didn't even tell him his name, and only asked him to call him "teacher".
Because this man himself was so poor that he could only wander around, perform on the streets, and often had no food to eat. He had to rely on a kid like Chen Kuang to pretend to be poor and beg for food.
After teaching him for about three years, the musician sold him to a teacher in Taichang Temple as an apprentice and left.
But just these three years of instruction have allowed Chen Kuang's piano skills to reach an astonishing level.
However, after that incident, Chen Kuang calmed down and only did his duty, never going out of his way.
"Forget it, if a person like this wanted to be famous, he would have already become famous."
"It's true that we haven't inquired about him for so many years, but there is still no news at all. It shows that he wants to hide his existence. It is useless to think too much."
Chen Kuang shook his head.
He closed his eyes and began to try the clay body and gold sculpture method that was imprinted in his mind.
This physical training method can almost be said to have no threshold or requirements, but the content is very powerful.
The main exercise method of the Clay Body Metal Sculpting Method is to use specific meditation postures and cross-legged postures, combined with breathing techniques, to transport qi and blood throughout the body and exercise the whole body.
The postures are divided into "eight phases", which are -
"Tushita descends from heaven", "White lotus entrusts birth", "Two dragons bathe the Buddha", "Moon draped in cassock", "Vajra Bodhi", "Supreme Path and Fruit", "Wheel of Enlightenment", "Nirvana enters annihilation".
Each phase that can be obtained represents a level of the practice.
The first phase is called "Tushita descends to the sky" and it looks very simple. It is basically a relaxed cross-legged sitting posture.
But how to transport qi and blood and how to control every inch of muscle requires extremely fine control. Without the experience taught by Huo Hengxuan, it would have taken at least three years to get started.
"This is really embarrassing for General Huo. It's probably because my talent is really poor."
"Otherwise, why don't you try to teach me the more evil and powerful grass-cutting swordsmanship?"
Chen Kuang twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly.
From the name to the content of this exercise, Chen Kuang felt that it should be an authentic Buddhist practice method.
However, a legendary figure like Huo Hengxuan must have extraordinary experiences, and it is normal to know a little bit about Buddhism.
This technique is indeed very powerful.
The eight images originate from the process of Buddha's enlightenment and are definitely the true secrets of Buddhism!
But obviously, as a god of death and a general, Huo Hengxuan is better at and more famous for his swordsmanship.
The other party was already prepared to take a gamble and hand over all he had learned throughout his life.
It turned out that Chen Kuang was not talented enough, so he had to change to a simpler one.
It's like a sudden brake at the critical moment of sprinting.
It is a great test of inch stopping technique.
Chen Kuang was also helpless, but now it was not up to him to make the choice.
After all, this kind of thing is like mathematics, if you can't do it, you can't do it.
Besides, he is a time traveler.
Sometimes this is not necessarily a good thing.
He tried hard to understand the principles, but from time to time, "This is unscientific", "How could a person do such a thing", "Are these auras considered controllable nanorobots" popped up in his mind...
Such strange thoughts and ideas.
After being disturbed, Chen Kuang always felt that something was wrong and couldn't calm down at all...
Huo Hengxuan, who was next to him, felt something and turned his head to take a look.
Seeing Chen Kuang's crooked and twisted posture, his expressionless face suddenly seemed to have a few black lines hanging on it.
Huo Hengxuan took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.
Like a sigh.
The old man turned his head. Fortunately, he didn't intend to place all his hopes on this man.
Huo Hengxuan, who was a little rickety, stuffed the last bit of steamed bun into his mouth and chewed it slowly and again.
"Click."
A slight movement seemed to come from Huo Hengxuan's mouth, between his teeth.
Huo Hengxuan remained calm on his face, moved his tongue, pulled out the thin thread from the remains of the thing, and then swallowed it.
His always cynical face finally showed a slight smile.
This filament is not a silk thread, but a golden needle made of thousands of pure gold cut into threads and twisted together, which can be soft or hard.
Of course... the most important thing is that it can enter the Dantian along the meridians and then spread out, unlocking the restrictions on Huo Hengxuan.
But you only get one chance.
It must be foolproof.
Huo Hengxuan said before that the face he recognized has appeared as a jailer tonight.
That man was his former subordinate, and he was also a nail.
This nail was planted in Dazhou a long time ago.
And now, it's time for him to play his role.
If there were no Chen Kuang, Huo Hengxuan would also find a way to replace a group of jailers so that this person could be inserted.
But he couldn't do what Chen Kuang did, and directly changed everyone...
To be honest, Huo Hengxuan was really a little scared.
If this person had been allowed to come to the military for training a few years earlier, maybe...
Huo Hengxuan shook his head, that's all, people have their own future.
If you join the army, you may die a few years early, which is bad luck.
The feeling of melancholy only lasted for a few seconds.
Seeing Chen Kuang still thinking in vain, Huo Hengxuan couldn't help but say:
"If you want to poop, just poop on the ground without any pretense of 'um um'!"
Chen Kuang had a dark face:
"You old guy, why are you still insulting people?!"
Chen Kuang was very angry.
Is it my fault that I have poor talent?
Can't you, this old guy, teach you some simpler exercises?
Huo Hengxuan pointed to the small swill bucket: "I just want to teach this little girl some arithmetic problems. She should be able to learn it in a few times!"
The little swill bucket blinked, innocently.
Chen Kuang remained silent.
Huo Hengxuan snorted, but his eyes could not hide his disappointment.
Chen Kuang thought about trying harder.
But as I was thinking about it, something suddenly flashed before my eyes.
[You received the guidance of Huo Hengxuan and learned the "Song of Cutting Grass·Kurong Chapter" and "The Clay-Embedded Gold Sculpting Technique", and obtained the passive "Martial Arts Wizard": You are a martial arts wizard who is rare to see in a thousand years, with amazing bones and well-developed meridians.
It’s easy to understand at a glance, and you’ll know it at a glance.]
The status bar has been updated!
Chen Kuang felt as if there were thunder and lightning exploding in his mind, splitting open all the fog and obstacles.
He felt that the originally stagnant Qi and blood suddenly surged like a flood, washing away every inch of muscle and bone in his body. The words and experiences in his mind were instantly digested and integrated into his instincts.
Chen Kuang followed the feeling and fine-tuned his whole body. Soon, every detail of the technique was perfectly matched, and a mysterious and mysterious feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
Qi and blood were spontaneously transported by the spiritual energy, and began to roar and impact to temper his body.
At the same time, a feeling of tingling and tingling arose spontaneously, like being soaked in the mother's amniotic fluid.
The first phase, Tushita descends from the sky!
Chen Kuang raised his eyebrows.
Who says it won’t happen?
I don't work hard anymore.
Dark blue... No, status bar, cheat me!
After a few breaths, Huo Hengxuan also noticed that something was wrong. He suddenly turned around and saw Chen Kuang closing his eyes and lowering his eyes. There seemed to be a golden light flashing through his eyes, which seemed to be somewhat solemn. His eyes suddenly widened.
