[014] Martial arts and Taoism
【014】Wu and Dao()
It seemed that he had reached a tacit understanding with everyone in the escort agency. Qian Feng and Liu Shuai left Hongyun Inn, and no one came to ask for any questions.
Liu Shuai was still worried about the pit under the bed, but now it is not the time to dig it open. He could see that the pit had existed for a while, and it would not be too late to come and find out in a while.
"Young Master, I've asked about the shopkeeper. There are several houses for sale in Xiyang City. I still have some money in my hand, so it's not a big problem to buy a house." Qian Feng always regarded Liu Shuai as the young master of the inspector's mansion, believing that Liu Shuai should live in a big house to meet his identity.
"Buy a house?" Liu Shuai was stunned when he heard this and laughed: "It won't be long before someone may invite us to live in the Shenzhen courtyard house, so there is no need to spend money in vain."
In his opinion, people are in the world, so how can they not be killed? With a fixed place to live, it is easy for people to come to the door. Moreover, he knew that Qian Feng was only 2,000 taels of silver, so they probably had to drink the northwest wind after buying a house. Besides, he was planning a long-term plan based on Liu Erlang's memory.
Qian Feng said oh, and he always felt that Liu Shuai was a little strange. His mysterious secret was a bit like a magician in the fortune teller on the street, which was different from the former Young Master Liu. Then he thought, perhaps because of a change in his family, Liu Erlang's nature also changed.
According to Liu Shuaidi's intention, the two lived in Cuiliu Inn, Chengdong.
This is a luxurious inn with a facilities far less than that of Hongyun Inn. The layout is very suitable for Liu Shuai. It has a separate backyard, three guest rooms in the yard, and a small pool in the center. There are several willows planted by the pool, which is pleasant.
Qian Feng only spent 100 taels of silver to wrap the entire backyard for the next month. This phenomenon is normal in the Tian Dynasty. For example, a caravan in other places has to stay in Xiyang for a long time. It is more expensive to live in a large inn on a day basis. Usually, they will rent a small inn on a monthly basis.
The divine thought scanned the backyard, and Liu Shuai called Qian Feng into the house, organized some language, and said, "Brother Qian, you and I will share good fortune and misfortune in the future. I don't want to hide some things from you. In fact, I have learned some Taoism."
Qian Feng did not seem very surprised, but Liu Shuai's trust in him moved him. He asked immediately: "I wonder what level the young master has reached? If he becomes a celestial immortal, he will be expected to kill Qin Hui alone!"
"I'm ashamed to say that I can barely possess spiritual consciousness. I'm still 108,000 miles away from the realm of the earthly fairy..." Liu Shuai smiled awkwardly, and then said in surprise: "Does my brother understand Taoism too?"
Qian Feng said: "Young Master is joking. Since ancient times, I have practiced martial arts but not Taoism, and I have practiced Taoism without practicing martial arts. I naturally cannot practice Taoism. However, people who walk in the darts must know a little about everything and have a little knowledge of the things in the world of cultivation. According to legend, there are one village, two mountains, three valleys and four sects in the world of cultivation, and the twelve great earth immortals. In addition, there are also..."
The most knowledgeable person in the world is probably the stud. Those studs travel around the world, traveling around the world, and have heard countless strange stories. Even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen pigs walking. Just imagine, many studs at Changfeng Escort Office will exchange their experiences after dinner, which is really comparable to Bai Xiaosheng.
Liu Shuai remembered every word Qian Feng said, and showed a sudden expression, curiously: "Brother Qian said that practicing martial arts does not practice Taoism, and practicing Taoism does not practice martial arts. How do you say this?"
Qian Feng replied: "My father once said that martial arts pursue the unity of man and nature, and the spirit of nature is integrated into one. Practicing to the top can make the body saints. People who practice martial arts perceive the world with their body, rather than cultivators perceive everything with their divine thoughts. The warrior's soul will never leave their bodies, so naturally they cannot practice Taoism."
"Oh, so that's it." Liu Shuai suddenly realized that the higher his martial arts, the closer the soul and body are, and not to mention it, he may not even have spiritual consciousness.
With a thought, he asked, "Can the monk practice martial arts?"
Qian Feng said: "The so-called practice of breath inside and muscles, bones and skin outside. If you want to achieve great martial arts, you must practice both inside and outside. The monk has no internal strength and his body is weak. He is also a fancy way to practice martial arts moves. The internal true qi, practicing muscles, bones and skin, and integrating essence, energy and spirit, all pursue the unity of man and nature. If the monk practices internal skills, then the energy and spirit will gradually merge, and he may never be able to leave his body again..."
Liu Shuai finally understood that he could only choose one of the two in martial arts and Taoism!
Seeing Liu Shuai seemingly smiling bitterly, Qian Feng said, "If you want to practice martial arts dual cultivation, it is not impossible, but it is too difficult for ordinary people to bear this kind of pain. I heard that there was a magical monk who was born with divine power and had extremely domineering horizontal practice skills. He was invulnerable to the enemy and could also hurt people by magic... The young master could try some external kung fu."
Hearing this, Liu Shuai felt his scalp numb.
Qian Fengdi understood that practicing external kung fu does not require internal strength, but most requires perseverance. When talking about external kung fu, he first remembered that the earth was a kind of earth martial arts such as the Golden Bell Cover Iron Sand Palm. After practicing these kung fu, there were a few brushes, but before the great success, it was purely self-harm and self-abuse... For example, the iron sand palm was practiced every day, and the hands were covered with blood and flesh, and without ten or eight years of hard work, there was no effect.
In Liu Shuai's opinion, if he has this time to practice external skills, he might as well go to seclusion to comprehend the "Floating Life Record".
After thinking about it, he asked again: "What kind of realm is the great master of martial arts?"
Speaking of this topic, Qian Feng immediately became interested, and his eyes looked both yearning and admiring: "The great master of martial arts is a first-class master with his magical methods. There are only five masters in Middle Earth today, and they are called the "Five Great Masters of the Heavenly Dynasty". Most people who practice martial arts are very respectful of the Five Great Masters of the Heavenly Dynasty."
Damn it, then Qin Hui is not so powerful that he is invincible? Liu Shuai took a deep breath and couldn't help but curse. He took a few deep breaths and said in confusion: "What is a first-class master?"
Qian Feng said: "This is the rule set by Emperor Taizong of the past, which classified the level of warriors to be similar to the official positions of the court. Anyone who can draw a stone bow is a ninth-grade warrior. Two stones are eighth-grade, four stones are seventh-grade, and eight stones are sixth-grade. In short, each grade is twice the difference, and so on... However, it is rare to see a land god bow of more than a thousand pounds in the world, so warriors of more than ten stones rely on the movement of a thousand pounds of stone lion or a subway cattle as the criteria for determining."
Liu Shuai calculated secretly, and his chin almost hit the ground, exclaiming: "In this way, that first-class master can lift 256 stones, which is a full 25,600 kilograms? Isn't this huge force shocking the world and crying ghosts?"
Qian Feng shook his head: "No, two hundred and fifty-six stones, but he just stepped into the threshold of the first grade. He truly reached the pinnacle and created a great master with extremely strong physical strength. His hands may have 30,000 kilograms, 50,000 kilograms, and 100,000 kilograms. It is easy to cut off the hill with one palm, but it is unfathomable in short!"
