Traveling through the heavens begins with shooting the eagle

Chapter 46 Returning favors
Li Chuan smiled and said: "This body technique is called Snake Walking and Li Fan. Once you practice it to a profound level, you can step on the snow without leaving a trace when moving. You can change your body and position silently. The most restrained one is as blind as Mei Chaofeng." man of."

"I want to teach you this body technique. I wonder if Brother Guo is willing to learn it?"

Yesterday, Hong Qigong specifically taught Li Chuan the essence of the palm technique, and taught Li Chuan the principles of combining hardness and softness that he had learned through hard training for many years without reservation.

Even in order to make it easier for him to understand this principle, he made an exception and taught Li Chuan the "Lushuangbingzhi" move in the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, so that he could use this move to understand the transformation of yin and yang and the principle of combining hardness and softness.

Although Hong Qigong only said that this palm technique was created by him from the Fifteen Dragon Subduing Palms and completed it into the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Even if it was passed on to Li Chuan, it would not be considered bad. The rules are as long as Li Chuan doesn't spread the word at will.

However, Li Chuan could not deny the kindness of this guidance, so he simply taught Guo Jing this snake-walking and raccoon-turning movement technique, so that he could increase his chances of winning when he faced Mei Chaofeng half a year later.

Guo Jing, who had already experienced the subtlety of the snake-walking raccoon-turning technique, was naturally grateful to Li Chuan and accepted his kindness.

Later, Li Chuan taught Guo Jing the body technique of Snake Walking and Lift Flip and the cultivation method, and took the initiative to teach him the footwork and the method of raising Qi and lightening the body, and then let him practice on his own.

The next day, Hong Qigong, who had been missing for nearly two days, finally returned to the valley again, with a big and conspicuous burden behind him.

Li Chuan glanced at the package behind Hong Qigong and understood instantly that Hong Qigong should have gone to the palace in the past two days.

After all, the piece of leather he was carrying on his back was bright yellow, and bright yellow cloth had always been widely used only in the palace. It was difficult to find a piece of yellow cloth in ordinary people's homes.

"Qi Gong, where have you been these two days?" Guo Jing asked.

Hong Qigong just smiled and said, "It's okay. I went to meet an old friend in the palace and asked him for some medicinal materials to make a bucket of medicinal bath for you."

'Old friend? Li Chuan turned his eyes and glanced at the pinhole marks on the wine gourd around Hong Qigong's waist. He thought to himself, would an old friend prick you with a needle?
Soon, it was night. Hong Qigong got a big wooden barrel from somewhere, and then built a simple stove with stones in the open space in front of the thatched house. He placed the big wooden barrel on it and started cooking. The fire produced a vat of hot water.

Then he threw the various medicinal materials he brought back into the bucket to boil out the medicinal properties, and then extinguished the fire, leaving only some charcoal embers at the bottom of the bucket to keep the water warm.

"Jing'er, take off your clothes, then jump into the bucket to exercise and adjust your breathing."

"Yes, I understand, Qi Gong."

Guo Jing knew in his heart that Hong Qigong would never harm him, so even though the wooden barrel was still steaming out, Guo Jing did not hesitate at all, he took off his clothes and jumped into the barrel.

Li Chuan, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but twitching in the corners of his eyes. The temperature of the water in the barrel wouldn't have cooked Guo Jing, would it? !

Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary. Hong Qigong was obviously very experienced. Although the temperature of the water in the bucket was high, it would not burn people.

The reason why it is necessary to maintain such a high temperature is because the heat of hot water is needed to open people's pores, so as to better absorb the medicinal power of hot water.

Hong Qigong looked at Guo Jing for a while and saw that he was gradually adapting to it and had entered a state of meditation. He nodded. He was about to pick up the wine gourd at his waist and take a sip, and then he realized that the bottom of the wine gourd had been pierced. .

'This old monster is really asking for some medicinal materials from you. Didn't he pierce my wine gourd? '

It looks like I won't be able to drink anymore today.

After putting down the wine gourd, Hong Qigong turned to look at Li Chuan and chatted: "By the way, Xiaochuan, I've wanted to ask you for a long time. The internal skills and mental methods you practice should be those of Wang Chongyang, the founder of Quanzhen Sect. Innate Kung Fu, right?" Li Chuan nodded and responded, "Reporting to Qi Gong, what I practice is indeed innate Kung Fu."

"As expected." Hong Qigong said as I expected, "You are indeed blessed."

"That's right." Hong Qigong said again, "Jing'er shouldn't wake up until early tomorrow morning. Then you can tell him that I'm going to Liaodong to see if I can find something for him." A few old wild ginsengs are back."

"I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for a month after he goes away. You let him practice martial arts with peace of mind. No matter whether he succeeds or not by then, it will take me a month at most and he will definitely come back."

When Li Chuan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Hong Qigong and said, "Brother Guo is really lucky to have Qigong as his teacher."

Hearing this, Hong Qigong just shook his head and said with a smile: "As an old beggar, I feel that I am lucky to meet Jing'er and Ronger and take them as my disciples."

"Old beggar, I have no children in my generation, and I have never had any disciples before. Now that I have finally accepted them two, I naturally can't just sit back and watch something happen to them."

Li Chuan glanced at Hong Qigong, who turned around to leave, and suddenly stopped him and said, "Qi Gong, please stay."

"Huh? What's wrong? Xiaochuan, do you have anything else to do?"

Li Chuan said: "I don't know, Qi Gong, have you ever heard of Bodhisattva and Snake?"

"Bodhisattva snake?" Hong Qigong raised his eyebrows, feeling that the name of this snake was a bit difficult to pronounce, "What kind of snake is that?"

Li Chuan replied: "The name Bodhisattva Snake was first seen in Buddhist scriptures. It is also mentioned in some Taoist scriptures and is called a 'dragon snake'. It is a strange beast with horns on its head."

"Whether it is Buddhist scriptures or records in the Taoist Canon, it is said that the snake gallbladder and food branch of this Bodhisattva snake can refresh the spirit, greatly increase the energy, and can increase the power of skills."

Hong Qigong asked curiously: "There are actually such strange beasts in this world? It's really magical."

"And to hear what you mean, Xiaochuan, do you know where this strange snake can be found?"

Li Chuan nodded and said, "I have seen some information about this snake from a volume of travel notes left by my predecessors."

"It is only said that the senior has seen traces of this strange snake in a mountain forest outside Xiangyang City, and it was not too long ago, so the junior thinks that the Bodhisattva snake group should still exist in the local area. Survive."

Hearing this, Hong Qigong couldn't help but become interested: "If this is really the case, then maybe we can catch some of the Bodhisattva Snakes you mentioned and let Jing'er try the results."

If the Bodhisattva Snake really exists, and its effect is as mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures, it can increase the strength and internal strength, then he no longer has to worry about Guo Jing's skill.

Moreover, Xiangyang is much closer than Liaodong. If we go all out, it won't take much time to go back and forth. Even if we fail by then, we won't waste too much time.

So after thinking about it, Hong Qigong decided to give it a try. He believed that Li Chuan was not the kind of person who would exaggerate and make pointless remarks.
