This was Wu Sheng's second time on the main peak. This time he had more time to look around Mu Taoist's cave, and found it to be very simple.
Mu Taoist asked Wu Sheng to sit down, while Jin Wuhuan sat on the other side with him.
"My little friend suffered some grievances in the mountains. I already know about this..." Mu Taoren pondered, but the words he had originally thought of felt inappropriate, and he didn't know how to appease Wu Sheng for a while.
Wu Sheng didn't need his comfort, he smiled and said: "Senior, there is no need to worry, I really have no interest in being a Sikou."
Mu Taoist saw that his smile came from the bottom of his heart and seemed to be sincere, so he said: "My little friend regards wealth and glory as dirt, but I worry about it in vain."
Wu Sheng said: "Actually, it's not like treating people like dirt. Few people are unwilling to be promoted to a noble family, and the same is true for the younger generation. It's just that...it's not the right time to say something unpleasant. It's not the right time to be here."
If you are obsessed with status and honor, why not think carefully about how to deal with the Chu army's encirclement and suppression."
Mu Taoren became interested: "I wonder what you have to say, little friend?"
Wu Sheng said: "If you ask me, we can't stay here for a long time. When the Chu army is surrounded, we will be in a desperate situation. We must move immediately. Going elsewhere is the best way."
Jin Wuhuan interjected from the side: "The terrain of Leigong Mountain is dangerous. Our division has been building it for many years. We have set up a huge formation of Tianxin Ten Thousand Swords to protect the mountain. It will be difficult for the Chu army to break through!"
Wu Sheng shook his head: "There has never been a fortress that cannot be breached. What's more, in the tiny area of Leigong Mountain, we have few people and weak strength. When the Chu army comes to surround us, we will have no troops to save outside and no people to defend inside. We will lack the means to advance and retreat.
Earth, this battle will be lost without fighting."
Jin Wuhuan shook his head and said: "You don't understand the power of our division's formation... Furthermore, I am setting up a flag here, and many righteous men will come to vote after hearing about it. What will they do if they go elsewhere?"
Wu Sheng said: "I have met many people in the past two days, including generals, officials, knights, and guards. As far as I know, when Prince Zhui first came here, there were more than 1,200 people gathered in Leigong Mountain within half a month.
In the next month, more than 600 people were received. In the past few days, less than ten people arrived every day. This shows that the effect of raising the flag has passed. Most of the people who are supposed to come have already come. Those who have not come will not come in the future.
Won’t come again.”
Jin Wuhuan asked: "Then where did you say you were going?"
Wu Sheng said: "There are two roads. One is to go to the northeast. Hufang is one of the princes in the world. It would be unjust for Chu to destroy Huya. You can ask Qi to uphold justice and join forces with the princes to attack Chu. The other is to go to the south and cross Daze.
Continue to the south, stay away from the areas where the Chu State has strong power, establish a country where it is beyond its reach, and then regain its strength before plotting the old territory of the homeland."
Jin Wuhuan looked at his teacher Mu Taoren. Mu Taoren stared in deep thought and was speechless for a moment.
Having said that, as for how to choose, it depends on Mu Taoist.
This kind of political strategy cannot be decided in a few words during the dinner, so after thinking for a moment, Mu Taoist thanked Wu Sheng for his heartfelt words and changed the topic.
"The original meaning of Qi refining is alchemy, Qingmiao Xuan Gong. Its source is the method of alchemy, which is used to form elixirs in the body to replace the Qi sea. It is said to repair the Qi sea, but in fact it is to reshape the Qi sea. This layer,
Children should know this."
Wu Sheng was overjoyed. When he and Jin Wuhuan asked about Qingmiao Xuan Gong before, they always talked about repairing it. He was also worried that he had no Qi sea and could not repair it. Today, after hearing the original meaning of Mu Taoist's method, he finally felt at ease.
Remodeling is good, remodeling is better than repairing!
The last time we met, Mu Taoist noticed that there was something wrong with Wu Sheng's Qi sea through the method of observing qi. Today, he was going to perform the exercises formally, so he stretched out his fingers and placed them on Wu Sheng's meridian.
A trace of true energy came in from Taoist Mu's fingertips. The true energy was like substance, but gentle and not overbearing. It wandered around in Wu Sheng's meridians and then exited.
"The meridians are unobstructed and not blocked. This little friend has great talent, which is extremely rare. However, it seems that he has never practiced Buddhism, which is puzzling. After the injury, has the little friend ever used elixirs? Or has he sought medical treatment?
The air sea has been completely destroyed, but a lot of hands and feet are missing, which can save half a year of work!"
Of course Wu Sheng couldn't tell him what was going on, and he didn't dare to make up lies, so he could only respond with "I don't know."
Mu Taoist did not dwell on this, and immediately said: "To refine the Qi Sea Pill, you need thirteen elixirs. I have prepared the three rarest elixirs over the years. Several disciples are also preparing for the remaining ten elixirs."
, it will be ready in just a few days.”
Wu Sheng was inexplicably grateful and bowed in his seat: "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. If this junior can return to practice, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Mu Taoren smiled and said: "It's not to repay your kindness. Your Yingdu assassination of the Prime Minister of Chu alone is enough for me to make an exception."
It was indeed an exception. How could such mysterious skills be easily passed on to outsiders? Wu Sheng bowed again.
The wooden Taoist took out the volume and handed it to Wu Sheng. Wu Sheng opened it and looked at it. He was confused. Each page of the wooden slips was engraved with five or six symbols. These symbols were just like Wu Sheng's childhood randomness.
The graffiti clouds are just a few simple strokes of a cloud, one after another. At first glance they all look the same, but if you look carefully, you will find that each one has its own merits.
"In addition to absorbing, breathing, and refining, my sect's skills also include elixir refining and weapon refining methods, but they are not the same as those of other schools. Regardless of the elixir or weapon, they all need to be matched with cloud patterns. Each cloud pattern is a layer of
Meaning.”
"A moiré is a word? No, a word?"
"That's pretty much the truth, so you have to pass the cloud pattern first."
There are more than ten pieces in the volume, and each piece has about five or six moiré patterns. It is estimated that there are six or seventy. Not to mention the number, the key is that each moiré pattern looks very similar. It is difficult to remember so many moiré patterns.
I have a headache.
When I was in a dilemma, I heard Taoist Mu explain: "To refine Qingmiao Xuandan, a total of sixty-six cloud patterns are used, and they are all in the bamboo slips. You must remember to visualize them."
Wu Sheng said to Jin Wuhuan: "Excuse me, please lend me a pen and diabolo slips, and I will copy them down."
Jin Wuhuan smiled and said: "How can it be so easy? This cloud pattern is embodied by the visualization of the true essence. The position, length, and interval cannot be changed at all, otherwise it will be invalid. Sir, please remember that it is also done by visualization.
Memorizing, what you copy can’t be visualized, it’s a useless effort. It took me a full year to memorize these sixty-six cloud patterns!”
Taoist Mu nodded: "I will keep the bamboo slips in your hands first, and you will be able to ponder them and visualize the cloud patterns. When the materials are ready, I will teach you how to practice them. After you have gained these sixty-six cloud patterns, you will return them to me."
Jin Wuhuan expressed his determination: "Teacher, don't worry, if you have any questions, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
Wu Sheng paid homage to the cloud-patterned bamboo slips, thinking that this was a bitter experience, and said to Jin Wuhuan: "After today, you can be my teacher, and I will never mention it again. To be honest, who is Mr. Wu?"
, I just kept hearing it was awkward.”
Jin Wuhuan laughed: "Then let's call you brother, it's more appropriate."
