What Wang Liangyu didn't expect was that after Ji Ran finished speaking, he stopped talking. It felt as if the reason why he was waiting here to see him was just to encourage him.
"Senior, don't you have anything else to say?" Wang Liangyu was stunned for a long time and asked stupidly.
Ji Ran was startled, twirled his short beard, pondered for a moment, and said seriously: "I don't know martial arts, so I have nothing to say to you."
Wang Liangyu was speechless, but did not dare to reveal anything on his face. He asked tentatively: "Junior has a cruel request." After a pause, he added, "Stones from other mountains can attack jade. I want to compete with my senior."
Let’s learn from each other and ask the seniors to give us some advice!”
Ji Ran turned to look at Wang Liangyu, slightly surprised.
After being stunned for a moment, Ji Ran said: "I am a student of Lao Tzu, learning the ways of heaven and man. If I don't know the magic, I'm afraid I won't be able to compete with you."
"Ah?!"
Before Wang Liangyu could react, Fan Li screamed out in surprise, his face full of disbelief.
Fan Li studied under Ji Ran, and Ji Ran worshiped Laozi as his teacher. In this way, Laozi is Fan Li's ancestor.
Fan Li was a little frightened when he thought that he did not meet Lao Tzu when he met with the Zhou royal family. "Master, disciple..."
"It's okay, you can't be considered my Taoist disciple now!" Ji Ran could see Fan Li's thoughts at a glance and waved his hand with a casual look on his face.
When Fan Li heard this, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Wang Liangyu patted Fan Li on the shoulder to comfort him, then looked at Ji Ran and said, "Senior, what is the way of heaven and man? I wonder if this junior is lucky enough to see it?"
"Laozi said that human beings are born by the changes of heaven and earth. They are anointed in the first month, veins in the second month, embryo in the third month, fetus in the fourth month, tendons in the fifth month, bones in the sixth month, formed in the seventh month, and move in the eighth month.
, I am restless in September and born in October."
"Laozi said that human beings are similar to heaven and earth. Heaven has four seasons, five elements, nine interpretations, and 360 days. Human beings have four branches, five treasures, nine orifices, and 360 knots."
"Lao Tzu said, the way of heaven and earth, as great as Hong, is still limited to its chapters and lights, and to loves its gods, how much less for humans?"
"Therefore, the sage follows the law of heaven and earth. It is said that man follows the law of the earth, the earth follows the heaven, the heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature!"
……
Listening to Ji Ran suddenly reciting classical Chinese, Wang Liangyu looked confused, this is not what I want!
When Ji Ran was taking a breath, Wang Liangyu quickly cut in, interrupted Ji Ran, and asked bluntly: "Senior, what magical techniques does Taoism have? Martial arts similar to martial arts, Confucianism's verbal and verbal attacks?"
Ji Ran paused when he heard the words, looked at Wang Liangyu with a strange expression, and said after a long time: "Taoism also has skills, but I don't have this ambition, and I'm not good at it."
Wang Liangyu was deeply disappointed when he heard this.
"I have a senior brother who lives in the Ghost Valley of Yunmeng Mountain. He calls himself Guiguzi. He is a scholar of heaven and man, and is good at magic."
"Guiguzi?!" Wang Liangyu screamed with disbelief on his face.
Throughout the history of China, Guiguzi is one of the most mysterious beings. He is known as a strange man through the ages. His origin is unknown, but his deeds are widely circulated. He founded the Guigu sect and is a representative figure of the political sect, with disciples all over the princes. Among them, Su Qin and Zhang Yi are the most famous. One person's words are more important than the treasure of the Nine Cauldrons, and a three-inch tongue is better than a million soldiers. The two of them controlled the situation of the Warring States Period with their vertical and horizontal skills!
Seeing Wang Liangyu's astonished look, Ji Ran was not surprised. He smiled happily, nodded and said, "You can go and find my senior brother. You will not be disappointed with Taoist magic!"
Even without Taoist magic, Wang Liangyu very much hopes to meet this strange man.
"I wonder where Yunmeng Mountain is located?"
Wang Liangyu knew very well that in China, which is vast and rich in resources, there are countless places with similar or even identical names. If you want to find someone, you must first determine the location of Yunmeng Mountain. Especially in ancient times when transportation was limited, otherwise it would be easy to go in the opposite direction. p>
"Chaoge."
When Wang Liangyu heard this, he immediately felt at ease. This place was so famous that it would be easy to find it.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice!"
Ji Ran chuckled, glanced at Fan Li who was standing aside, then turned to Wang Liangyu, and suddenly said: "I have nothing to teach you, so let me talk about Taoist practice today!"
Upon hearing this, both Wang Liangyu and Fan Li looked at Ji Ran in astonishment.
Fan Li was the first to come to his senses, cupped his hands, then turned around expressionlessly, preparing to leave.
As the saying goes, the law should not be taught lightly, Fan Li felt that he was not qualified to fax the law.
Wang Liangyu woke up immediately and was about to reach out to grab Fan Li.
Ji Ran coughed lightly: "Fan Li, you can stay!"
Fan Li was shocked, turned around slowly, and looked at Ji Ran in disbelief.
Ji Ran lightly twirled his short beard and smiled.
"Disciple Fan Li, pay homage to Master!" Fan Li immediately bowed and saluted, unable to suppress his excitement.
Wang Liangyu also laughed when he saw this, and said jokingly: "Congratulations, senior, for accepting this great disciple!"
Ji Ran coughed lightly and said, "I am a history guard in the Tibetan Chamber. I have read a lot of books. I also inherited the Taoism of Xuanmen and created a Taoist school."
After briefly introducing the origin of Taoism, Ji Ran continued.
"Laozi said that there is something mixed, born in the heaven and earth, but the image is invisible, slim and dark, lonely and indifferent, and its sound is not heard. I forced it to give it a name, and the word is Tao."
"Heaven and earth have no form, they are slim and dark, muddy and unified, still and clear, heavy and turbid is earth, subtle is heaven, separated into four seasons, divided into yin and yang, essence is human, coarse energy is insect, hard and soft are in phase.
When everything is done, all things come into being."
"Heaven and man are connected, all things are connected, and essence is connected."
"Therefore, you are in harmony with heaven and earth, you are in harmony with the sun and moon, you are in harmony with ghosts and gods, you are in harmony with the four seasons, you have the heart of heaven, you have the energy of earth, you are in harmony with harmony."
It is another long passage of mysterious and mysterious Taoist texts. I obviously know every word, and I can roughly understand the meaning when they are put together, but then what? What is the true meaning in it?
Wang Liangyu's head was so confused that he couldn't figure it out at all. In the end, Ji Ran's voice was like a fly buzzing in his ears, like a scumbag listening to an old professor's advanced mathematics class.
Turning around, he saw Fan Li beside him, with a look of realization.
"Is this the gap?"
Wang Liangyu looked bitter and helpless. In the final analysis, his foundation was too poor. The treasure was clearly right in front of him, but he couldn't understand it at all.
Ji Ran saw Wang Liangyu's embarrassment, twisted his beard and chuckled slightly, and his tone changed slightly: "Everything carries yin and embraces yang, let alone humans? Therefore, Taoism refines qi, refines the qi of heaven and earth into one's body, and injects qi into harmony.
”
"This is called the unity of heaven and man!"
Wang Liangyu naturally heard that Ji Ran's words were meant for him. Although he was surprised, he was not surprised at all.
Taoist Qi refining seems to have become a routine.
"Dare I ask, senior, how to refine qi?" Wang Liangyu pondered for a moment and asked boldly.
Wang Liangyu originally thought that Ji Ran would not answer. After all, the method of refining qi is the foundation of Taoism, how can it be taught lightly?
But what was unexpected was that Ji Ran didn't hesitate at all and immediately started teaching the Fa.
After a while, Wang Liangyu carefully recalled the Qi refining method taught by Ji Ran, and secretly sighed in his heart: "It feels exactly the same as the immortal cultivation method in the Internet article!"
Taoist qi refining is based on breathing and exhaling, refining the qi of heaven and earth into the body, and harmonizing the qi, so that the spirit and qi are peaceful, the will is strong and the body is peaceful, ups and downs with the Tao, taking advantage of the changes of time, and finally reaches the highest state of the unity of heaven and man. Taoist Qi refining may sound simple, but in fact, just breathing and breathing is the first step to get started, which stumps many people.
Anyway, Wang Liangyu drank enough of the southeast wind on the Ruoye River, but he still couldn't feel the Qi of heaven and earth, let alone the refined Qi entering his body.
Fan Li, on the other hand, can do it in one go.
Wang Liangyu could clearly feel that as Fan Li breathed in and out, the air around him slowly surged, like a vortex, rapidly absorbing everything around him.
"Am I that bad?"
Looking at Fan Li, Wang Liangyu was shocked.
"Taoist qi refining requires extremely high levels of talent, so those who can enter the Taoist school are few and far between!" Ji Ran turned his gaze from Fan Li to Wang Liangyu and consoled him.
Wang Liangyu smiled bitterly and asked: "Are other families like this too?"
"Each school has different requirements, but it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to get started." Ji Ran nodded and looked at Wang Liangyu with a little more expectation, "But martial arts is different. It doesn't focus on bones and talents. Anyone can practice it. How can I do it?"
The foundation of the human race!"
Wang Liangyu suddenly understood after hearing this, and finally understood why Ji Ran valued herself so much because of her unintentional words.
However, this burden is indeed a bit heavy for Wang Liangyu.
"Juniors will definitely try their best!" Wang Liangyu did not dare to praise Haikou.
Ji Ran smiled and nodded without saying much.
After a while, Fan Li came back to his senses from practicing.
"Thank you, Master, for your teaching!" Fan Li bowed and bowed, his face full of respect and gratitude.
Ji Ran gave a few words of encouragement, then looked at Wang Liangyu and muttered: "The foundation of martial arts is laid. The future is difficult. You can ask hundreds of schools, and you may gain something."
After saying that, Ji Ran Shi Shi Ran stepped onto the boat and said, "I'm going!"
As Ji Ran finished speaking, the lone boat on the shore suddenly moved, lifted off the ground, floated on the surface of the Ruoye River, and quickly headed upstream of the Ruoye River.
Watching Ji Ran drifting away, Wang Liangyu didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and asked nonchalantly: "I'm not dazzled. Is the boat flying?"
Fan Li on the side was stunned for a while and nodded: "Yes."
"So, that was a Taoist technique just now?" Wang Liangyu turned around and looked at Fan Li, her eyes dull.
"Maybe?!"
Fan Li took a step back and said with some uncertainty.
"This is magic!"
Wang Liangyu's voice rose uncontrollably, with surprise and astonishment in her disbelief.
"Well, Taoist magic is really magical!"
Seeing Wang Liangyu's excited expression, Fan Li hurriedly spoke to comfort him, but he could not hide his envy and expectation in his heart. Now that he has become a Taoist, in time, he might not be able to fly in a boat like his master!
Wang Liangyu took a deep breath, calmed down, and looked straight at Fan Li with eager eyes: "Can you do it?"
"I've just started!" Fan Li said with a helpless expression.
"Why, I don't have this talent!" Wang Liangyu looked up to the sky and cried out sadly, feeling deeply disappointed that he had lost the opportunity to cultivate immortality.
