The fairy is fierce
Chapter 41 If the heart is not dead, the great way will not be destroyed
The sudden arrival of three jade tablets caused the monks around the capital to become restless. Although some people wondered why this blessing came so suddenly, no one could answer it; after all, no one could touch the thoughts of the ancestor of the Xian family. Be clear.
The matter of selecting three monks to attack the terrace has been finalized, but this matter has nothing to do with Zuo Lingquan, and he doesn't take it to heart. After leaving the Imperial City, the sun was setting in the west, and the scattered buildings on the south bank of Wende Bridge were bathed in the red sunset.
Zuo Lingquan returned to Zuofu and went to the back house to report to his three uncles and three aunts that they were safe. When he was passing by the verandah, he suddenly heard a soft sound of 'swish, swish...' coming from behind the east courtyard wall - the sound of a sword being swung. !
Zuo Lingquan paused in his steps. He had been practicing swordsmanship for fourteen years, and he was very familiar with this sound. The source of the sound was the east residence where the young master lived. He turned around and walked through the verandah to the courtyard where Zuo Yunting lived.
The courtyard was tidied by the servants, but it was quite tidy. However, there was a black donkey in the middle of the courtyard, leisurely nibbling flowers in the bonsai, which destroyed the original elegant mood of the courtyard.
Zuo Lingquan entered the courtyard and looked up to see Zuo Yunting at the foot of the steps of the main house. He was wearing a prince's robe and holding a wooden sword in his hand, playing the King's Eight Sword without any rules.
Since Zuo Yunting is said to be 'neither learned nor skilled', he must be incompetent in both civil and military arts. But this is not stupidity, but simply laziness and unwillingness to learn since childhood.
Zuo Lingquan was naturally surprised when he saw Zuo Yunting starting to practice his sword as the sun came out in the west. Looking around, I realized that Lao Lu, whom I had just met not long ago, was also in the courtyard, sitting under the eaves with a tea bowl, watching Zuo Yunting playing sword.
Zuo Lingquan did not disturb Zuo Yunting's swordplay - mainly because he was unorganized and unable to predict his next move, making it difficult to get close.
He came to the eaves of the west wing, pulled a small bench and sat next to it, praising:
"Mr. Lu is very clever. Third uncle and the others used to invite famous teachers to teach martial arts, but fifth brother didn't want to study hard. This is the first time I've seen him practice swordsmanship so seriously. ♦♗ ♦♦"
Lao Lu hung his bamboo hat on his back, his long sword across his knees, and smiled hoarsely while holding the tea bowl:
"To introduce people, you must prescribe the right medicine. Your brother has a loose personality and is lazy, but he likes to listen to books and is very interested in stories about the chivalry of immortals and the counterattack of trash. After drinking the night before, I asked your brother to chat and said that I In fact, he is the thirteenth city lord of the Sword Imperial City in Zhongzhou. He is half a step up the jade ladder, and his swordsmanship is divine. As long as he learns 10% of my swordsmanship, he will be able to feel proud and beat you, the most talented cousin in the family. Let you understand What does it mean to 'don't bully young people into poverty'? Your brother was so excited that he couldn't sleep last night, so he got up and started learning swords..."
? ?
Zuo Lingquan's eyes were stunned. He looked at Lao Lu up and down. He felt that his tone was a joke, so he leaned closer and said softly:
"Fifth Brother, does he really believe it?"
"Do you think that with your brother's brain, he wouldn't believe me if I show off as an expert?"
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Mr. Lu to deceive people like this. If fifth brother realizes that he has been deceived in the future..."
"It is better to have learned something by the time you find out you have been cheated than to have no skills at all now."
Zuo Lingquan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He raised his eyes to carefully observe Fifth Brother's Bastard Sword, and after a moment he said:
"Can you really learn anything from this mess of swordsmanship?"
Lao Lu didn't like this very much: "On the first day you learned the sword, were you able to play it with precision?"
Zuo Lingquan had always remembered things since he was born. The first time he played with a sword, he was very precise. But it’s not easy to talk about this matter. He nodded and smiled:
"That's true."
Lao Lu picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate your brother. I have lived for such a long time, and I also have some unique skills hidden in my hands. As long as your brother studies hard, his future achievements may not be worse than yours."
Zuo Lingquan did not refute this: "If Fifth Brother can refine Qi, it is normal for him to surpass me; I have made no achievements since I was three years old, and I don't know when I will reach the threshold."
Lao Lu saw the confusion in Zuo Lingquan's eyes. In fact, after some contact, he also saw that Zuo Lingquan really didn't know that he had already embarked on the path of cultivation.
Lao Lu was not surprised by this, after all, Zuo Lingquan's method of cultivation was indeed unique.
At the beginning of practice, what people do is nothing more than strengthening the meridians and acupoints to refine and contain the true energy that contains the power of heaven and earth.
The most common way to strengthen the meridians and acupoints is to seal the sea of qi to become a container, and then use a small amount of true qi to stimulate the unopened acupoints like water dripping through stone.
This method is equivalent to building a tower, using one layer at a time, and building up layer by layer. It is step-by-step, concise and clear. It is the mainstream of the sect's cultivation method.
Zuo Lingquan's method is an all-in-one method - the meridians and acupoints are connected to the heaven and earth. He does his best to squeeze the body and speed up the flow of qi and blood, and the speed of spiritual energy entering and leaving the body will also be accelerated.
Zhenqi is originally condensed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The difference is that the attributes of the spiritual energy are mixed and thin.
The spiritual energy that enters the body will also stimulate the Ren and Du meridians, and the effect is similar to the first one; the difference is that the speed is very slow, and people can hardly feel it. It requires dripping water to penetrate the stone over time, and it will not take place until the small Zhoutian is formed.
This method is like carving a tall building on a stone embryo. It cannot be used before it is formed. It relies on the stimulation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to come in and out. Naturally, the whole body will be wide open, and even if the true energy is refined, it cannot be contained.
In the early stage, if you don’t have true Qi, you will have no chance to practice talismans, alchemy, spells, etc. You can only rely on your body to exert some combat power; if you push your body to the limit day after day, if you don’t have a master to look after you, you can’t accurately perceive the realm and have no idea how long you will have to practice.
After the small Zhoutian is formed, the two methods have the same end, and there is no difference in the method of practice.
Most people in the world can’t complete the Qi Refining Period in their lifetime. The second method requires a hundred times more effort and risk than the first method, but the Qi Refining Period is no different from that of ordinary people; even if you complete the Qi Refining Period, the advantage is only that it is formed in one piece, the foundation is as solid as a rock, and the body is very solid.
This extreme and perseverance-testing practice is easy to fail, so it needs special care. The immortal sects generally only use it when training successors; if it is used on a large scale, there is not enough energy to look after it, and it cannot produce immediate results, and no one will learn it. It is rarely used, so naturally few people know about it. Only a very small number of secular warriors have stumbled onto this path and entered the door of cultivation without relying on the Qi Refining Method.
Lao Lu guessed that Zuo Lingquan must have trained his body too early, practicing martial arts at the age of three and touching bones at the age of six.
When touching bones, the whole body had been wide open for a while, and the true qi entered the body like a sieve, so he was evaluated as "born with blocked meridians".
It is not surprising that the cultivators here are short-sighted. After all, this situation is rare outside - how many three-year-old children in the world can practice to death with the "heart of seeking the Tao" without the guidance of a teacher?
It can only be said that Zuo Lingquan was too sensible too early, too hardworking, and lacked a master to lead the way, so he stumbled onto a different path from ordinary people.
However, although Lao Lu knew the reason, he did not intend to tell Zuo Lingquan about it.
In the cultivation of Tao, it is a taboo for masters to point out at will, because no one knows what the future holds.
If Zuo Lingquan can't hold on to this path and gives up, it means that his heart is not strong. He helped this time, but he will give up sooner or later in the future, because the master will not always stay by his side.
With his own experience of walking out of the fog, the next time he encounters a similar predicament, his confidence and perseverance must be much greater than that of ordinary people. This is the growth and transformation of the state of mind.
And there is no point in telling now.
He observed that Zuo Lingquan's physique was as strong as that of a martial artist in the twelfth realm, which means that the small Zhoutian has been perfected and should soon usher in the final blow.
He asked Jingluo to recruit disciples here, in fact, he also wanted to indirectly stimulate Zuo Lingquan to see if he could arouse Zuo Lingquan's desire to strive for it, so as to help him break through the realm.
If he told him directly, he would be anxious in his joy. If he was too eager for success, he would fail in everything and might delay his practice.
Therefore, what Old Lu can tell Zuo Lingquan now is only a reminder from an experienced person:
"Practicing Taoism is like walking in the long night without a lamp, crossing a torrent without a bridge. No one can see what is ahead, whether it is dangerous or blessed. As a cultivator, all we can do is to stick to our original intention. If the heart is not dead, the Tao will not be destroyed; once the heart is dead, everything will be in vain."
Stick to the original intention...
Zuo Lingquan thought about it carefully and nodded thoughtfully:
"Thank you, Old Lu, for your guidance. I will keep it in mind."
Old Lu chuckled, but after laughing, he sighed secretly - he could tell this truth to the younger generation, but he was already as dead as ashes. Sometimes, it is useless to keep it in mind...
