Forced to Zhongnan Chapter 72: The Art of Inhaling Qi
The Xiaozhongnan Daomen, which has always been quiet and quiet, has become a bit more lively because of the addition of Yan Yun.
Yan Yun didn't feel any pressure in his interactions with his senior brothers, and he liked this feeling very much.
This strong sense of brotherhood is very different from when he was hanging out in the King of Dayu City in the past. Although the children of the aristocratic families call each other brothers and sisters, in reality they are always comparing themselves to each other, their styles are extravagant, and their interactions are superficial and there is no real relationship between them.
friend.
He, Li Zhen and others are not involved in any interests at all, they are equal, friendly and respect each other.
After exchanging pleasantries with each other for a while, Qingchan said: "Let's find a spiritual place for Junior Brother Yanyun to decorate the cave first."
"What cave?" Yan Yun was surprised, "I live in this courtyard, it's quite good."
"Look, junior brother, what you have in mind is so beautiful!" Qingchan popped out.
"You can't stay here for a long time. This third courtyard is where Master lives. How can we, the disciples, trouble Master all the time." Li Zhen said with a smile, "There are more than a dozen places on the top of the mountain that have similar aura to this one. Junior disciples can choose at will.
"
Only then did Yan Yun realize that his mentor, Yu Zhenzi, had taken great care of him and was as kind as a mountain.
However, Yu Zhenzi did not ask Yan Yun what he had experienced in the past few months after leaving Xiao Zhongnan, and he could not find a window to tell his mentor the process or even ask him to come out.
Li Zhen and others led Yan Yun to search everywhere in the mountains. During this period, several senior brothers may have deliberately not waited for Yan Yun, a mortal.
Or run as fast as the wind and lightning.
Yan Yun held the Evil Punishing Spear in his right hand and held the Soul Flag in his sleeve pocket with his left hand. With the help of the power of the Netherworld Mist, he followed and walked without falling far behind.
Several senior brothers have seen this scene, and they can't help but marvel at seeing each other again.
Li Zhen is worthy of being Yu Zhenzi's eldest disciple. The dark mist is almost colorless and invisible during the day. She actually saw the clues and said seriously: "Junior brother, your method of lightening one's body is full of evil spirits. You must always clean the spiritual platform and keep it straight.
yourself, lest you fall into evil ways."
When she said this, her cheeks turned red, as if a normal word of advice cost her a lot of courage.
Yan Yun looked upright and responded: "What Senior Sister said is absolutely true. Please rest assured, Senior Sister. It may be difficult for others to resist the temptation of evil spirits, but I cannot."
"If junior brother is not a gentleman, Master will not accept you as a disciple." Li Zhen nodded and said with a smile, "I am troublesome, just remind me."
"Thank you, senior sister."
After Yan Yun looked at several terrains, he went to inspect Yuantai's cave. He had an idea in mind and aimed at a huge bare rock.
There is water seeping from the forest flowing all year round on the stone, covered with moss, facing a flat lake.
Yan Yun said: "That's it."
Qingchan said happily: "Junior brother, I will open this cave!"
After saying that, she flapped her wings and flew a few feet away from the boulder. A pair of shining snow blades appeared in her hands.
She used her two fingers to guide the snow blade to cut into the rocks. Soon, a cave as tall as a person emerged.
When Yuantai saw it, he was unhappy and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, this entrance is too small. How can I be a guest in the future?"
Qingchan suddenly showed a bitter and resentful expression, and scolded Yuantai in a sweet voice: "I am so young, and my senior brother dug my cave so big. It is easy for you to get in and out, but when it is windy and rainy, there is little shelter, and it is miserable.
It's me!"
Yuantai touched the tiger's head and giggled.
Yan Yun said in surprise: "Then you can't choose another place?"
Li Zhen shook her head and said: "All great rivers and mountains are given by God. It is too much to live in a corner. How can we destroy it wantonly based on our own subjective assumptions? Besides, we are all monks. We should wholeheartedly follow the Tao, be content with the situation, and be obedient.
It’s natural.”
When Yan Yun heard this, his heart froze.
There was an inexplicable thought lingering in his mind. He wanted to ask Li Zhen, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that there was nothing he could ask.
Yan Yun added: "Sister, if you feel that your cave is not suitable, you can exchange it with my newly opened cave."
Qingchan was delighted and said, "You said you wanted to change it yourself, I didn't force you."
"That's natural."
When a group of people came to the cave opened by Yuantai for Qingchan, Yan Yun was shocked. The cave was really big. Not only was the entrance huge, the cave was also unusually spacious.
There were no furnishings in the cave, except for stone benches, tables, and beds. There were only some of her clothes hung on the wall with a net bag.
With the small size of the green cicada, if it were to lie on the wall, it would be like a summer cicada entering the lobby, which can be ignored.
Now that Yan Yun's cave has been selected, the few of them will no longer stay.
Li Zhen asked Yan Yun to try to read the three books "Qi Na Jue", "Fire Ball Technique" and "Light Body Technique" first to see if he could understand it and lay a solid foundation. She would come back to explain to him tomorrow morning, which would be more convenient.
He quickly learns Taoism. He needs to cultivate his magic power as soon as possible before he can understand the "big grain technique" and end the fireworks in the world as soon as possible. Before he understands the big grain technique, he can go to the mountains, rivers or woods to find food on his own.
Prepare three meals a day for him, and he is not allowed to bring meat or fish into the temple. In addition, Yu Zhenzi has the habit of temporarily inspecting the cultivation of his disciples. Yan Yun needs to practice hard and study day and night, so that he can be renewed every day.
, and renew it every day, so as not to be displeased and punished by the master.
It can be seen that Yan Yun's treatment in the temple as a mortal and as a disciple are different. The former will provide a lot of conveniences in the temple, while the latter must abide by the rules. This also reflects Yu Zhenzi's strictness towards his disciples from another aspect.
.
Cultivating magic power is what Yan Yun dreams of.
The evil-slaying spear given by Yu Zhenzi was an innate magical weapon. Since he was powerless, he could only hold it in his hand like an ordinary gun and stick.
When Feng Lindu and Li Ao were chasing each other, Yan Yun would not have been able to succeed even if he had nine lives, if the other party had not underestimated the enemy and thought too highly of himself.
Rather than saying that Yan Yun killed Li Ao, it is better to say that Li Ao's character killed him.
As soon as the senior brothers left, Yan Yun immediately opened the "Na Qi Jue" to observe.
The view in the cave was not very good, so he sat at the entrance of the cave and studied hard.
The opening chapter of "Naqi Jue" tells the relationship between Qi, man and nature. The three concepts of heaven, earth and man are a unified concept. Heaven is the master, and the nature and nature are formed.
Human happiness, anger, sorrow, ups and downs of life, etc., all operate in the "nature" environment, which is reflected in the growth and decline of yin and yang and the movement of the five qi. Human internal organs are inseparable from the yin and yang and the five elements.
The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess damage; the way of man is to make up for the deficiency when there is insufficient damage. Heaven behaves upright and man has his own selfish interests, so the way of heaven is endless, but the way of humanity is short-lived.
What monks pursue throughout their lives is the unity of heaven and man.
The Art of Accepting Qi is a process for monks to understand the way of heaven with the help of the "qi" that circulates in the heaven and earth.
In other words, the fundamental purpose of creating the Naqi Jue is not to fight with others, but to better understand the way of heaven.
However, father and son like Li Du and Li Ao, although they are monks, their actions and original intentions have completely put the cart before the horse.
Probably because Yan Yun suffered great pain that ordinary people have never experienced before, he had a deeper understanding of the opening chapter of the Qi-Naking Jue.
He spent this afternoon in deep meditation, entering into a state of trance from time to time, his mind already flying far away.
That night, the moonlight was bright, and he still sat at the entrance of the cave without moving. He didn't notice that time had passed, and he even forgot about his hunger.
The next day, Li Zhen came as promised.
Yan Yun finally regained his composure and quickly stood up to greet him. Not wanting to stumble, he stood firm.
"Junior brother, you haven't slept all night?" Li Zhen asked in surprise.
"One night? Has the night passed?" Yan Yun was confused.
"You need to practice the exercises step by step. Don't do it too hastily. It is easy to create obstacles. If you go too far, you will be in trouble." Li Zhen warned.
"Ashamed, I didn't practice the Qi Receiving Technique this night."
"No? You just sat here all night for nothing?"
"I have been comprehending the preface of the Naqi Jue, and I haven't had time to check the technique."
"Ah?" Li Zhen took the Naqi Jue from Yan Yun's hand and looked at it. She thought there was something different in the preface. Isn't it exactly the same as what Yu Zhenzi gave to her?
With just a few thin pages, Yan Yun could actually read it all night?
Of course she knew that Yan Yun was not a lazy person, and she could not prevaricate him, so she felt strange in her heart for a moment.
She is the eldest disciple of Xiao Zhongnan Temple, and she has introduced Jiuzhao, Yuantai, and Qingchan to the Kungfu. All three of them, without exception, ask for advice on Kung Fu. No one has ever behaved like Yan Yun.
However, although the preface of "Naqi Jue" is short in words, it is just an overview of the purpose of the monks. Every word in it contains extremely profound truths. Li Zhen really can't give Yan Yun good guidance or advice.
Master Yu Zhenzi once said that if a cultivator clearly understands the preface, the subsequent exercises will be like a chicken or a dog, and they will be ignored at all. Of course, if you practice them, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
"Sister, what is Tao?"
Yan Yun indeed asked this question.
Li Zhen's cheeks turned red, and she hurriedly waved her hands and said, "I have asked Master like this before, and Master said it can only be understood but not expressed in words."
"All that can be said is not Tao?"
"Um!"
"Oh..." Yan Yun prolonged his tone and didn't ask any more questions.
"Junior brother, if you want to find out what Tao is, there are five techniques you can study."
Monk, also known as alchemist, the five skills of mountain, medicine, fortune, fortune telling, and divination are usually connected in series.
Mountain refers to "immortal" skills, as well as Taoism and supernatural powers, which are the skills and techniques practiced by monks; medicine refers to medical skills, pharmacology, alchemy, etc.; fate refers to judging a person's fortune based on his or her birth date.
Also known as the Four Pillars. Physiognomy is to judge a person's fortune based on the person's face, organs, bones, back, etc. Although fate and physiognomy have something in common, the methods are different. Only when the two are combined can the divination be complete.
The first skill is to judge changes in things or people's fortunes through hexagrams. It can be used to predict the enemy's opportunities, and it is much more profound than fortune-telling and fortune-telling. Medicine, fortune-telling, fortune-telling, divination involve yin and yang, and the five elements can be used to prove the skill.
The cultivation of Dharma, if the magical power is successful, can also enhance the ability of the other four arts.
