Chapter 31: I don't know if there is a treasure mountain in the sky
When asking for help from others, try to control your temper.
Qin Xiao tried his best to make his smile look sincere, and said softly: "Of course you have to learn. Master, you are right, we have to proceed step by step, let's start with the acupuncture skills." Xunsiruo really learned the acupoints. Even if he can't deal with martial arts masters with his kung fu, ordinary people should be able to handle it on their own.
In short, it is better to study than not to study.
The most important thing is that although Qin Xiao doesn't like Mu Yeji, he is still a little afraid deep down.
After all, the crazy woman and Pharmacist Shen are brothers and sisters. If they knew that they really kicked Pharmacist Shen out of Prison A, who knows whether the crazy woman would torture and abuse her?
With Mu Yeji's sword hanging over his head, Qin Xiao really didn't dare to drive Pharmacist Shen out.
Under such circumstances, it would be a dream to get something useful from Yaoshi Shen, but it is impossible to get money from him. It would be nice to get some martial arts from him.
"Your internal force has taken shape, I will teach you how to inject the internal force of Dantian into your fingertips." Pharmacist Shen rarely became serious: "The human body has hundreds of meridians, and the internal force flows through different meridians, and the functions it plays are naturally very different. If If your internal energy diverts the meridians, not only will it not be able to achieve its effect, it may also damage your body. You must remember this."
Qin Xiao nodded and said: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely remember it."
"Close your eyes." Pharmacist Shen whispered: "Gather your energy and only think about the inner energy of your Dantian. Can you feel its existence?"
Qin Xiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. At first, there were some distracting thoughts in his mind, and he could not clearly feel the true energy in his Dantian. But he tried his best to put aside the distracting thoughts, and soon he felt that the warm breath in his chest really appeared, and he heard it. Pharmacist De Shen said softly: "Storage Qi in the Dantian, transport the true Qi from the Dantian to the Yutang, and go up to Xuanji to see if it can be done?"
Qin Xiao was not distracted. He followed Pharmacist Shen's instructions and thought about the Yutang point. He felt the breath flowing in his Dantian, but he could not follow his thoughts. He frowned slightly and heard Pharmacist Shen say in a deep voice: "You have forgotten the method of breathing in and out. ?" The voice seemed a little unhappy.
Qin Xiao immediately understood something. He thought of the method of exhaling and inhaling in the "Ancient Yi Qi Jue". It was strange to say that during the breath, the internal energy in the Dantian passed through exactly as he thought, flowing from the Dantian to the Yutang point.
However, the flow of Qi was extremely slow, like a snail crawling. It was difficult to feel the flow of Qi to the Yutang point, and it was extremely difficult to go to the Xuanji point above.
Although he was concentrating, his energy seemed to stagnate after passing the Yutang point, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Wait a minute!" Pharmacist Shen also seemed to see that something was wrong.
Qin Xiao took a deep breath and then opened his eyes. He saw Pharmacist Shen looking at him with a very strange look, as if there were carvings on his face. He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his face and asked: "Why?" Already?"
Pharmacist Shen asked in a low voice: "You brat, tell the truth. You have been practicing Zhenqi for more than half a year, but have you ever allowed Zhenqi to flow through the meridians?"
Qin Xiao thought to himself that Yaoshi Shen had already seen something. He knew that facing such a master, there was no point in hiding it. He said with some embarrassment: "That's not true."
Pharmacist Shen showed an expression of disbelief and cursed in a low voice: "Then what's the point of practicing your zhenqi? The zhenqi in your Dantian must have been practiced for at least half a year, but your ability to move the zhenqi is not as good as just now." A baby is born.”
Although Qin Xiao looked a little confused, he had to admit that what Pharmacist Shen said was reasonable.
"Having true energy but never using it is like having a bow but not knowing how to shoot an arrow." Pharmacist Shen sighed: "At least you have reached the Yutang point, and it is not hopeless." Wei Yi After thinking deeply, he said in a low voice: "Remember, the true energy enters Yutang, rushes into Xuanji, is transported to Tianquan, passes through Tianfu, Chize, Lieque, and then transported to Daling Cave, enters Laogong, and is injected into Shaochong. When the internal strength reaches a point where there is less punch, you can move to seal the opponent's acupuncture points."
Qin Xiao said "Ah", and Pharmacist Shen said angrily: "Repeat what I said in a low voice. If you make a mistake, I will slap you in the face."
Qin Xiao thought for a moment and explained the circulation system mentioned by Pharmacist Shen.
"It's quite smart." Medicine Master Shen's face relaxed slightly.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but said: "Master, it takes a lot of time to get the luck from Dantian to Yutang. By the time the internal energy is slowly transported to Shaochong point, wouldn't it be possible that someone would have killed him long ago?"
"Do you think acupuncture is so easy to practice?" Pharmacist Shen snorted coldly: "If you have full internal strength and practice proficiently, you can go from Dantian Luck to Shaochong in just one breath and one breath. You are still far behind now. Slowly Just practice." After thinking for a moment, he whispered: "It's just the acupuncture points where the true energy circulates. Don't miss one, let alone other acupoints by luck, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. You have to remember this."
Seeing the serious look on Pharmacist Shen's face, Qin Xiao nodded quickly and said: "Master's instructions, disciple, please remember." Xunxiang thought that this old guy had taught him a skill at least, so he had better give him a good look.
"Don't delay practicing Zhenqi." Yaoshi Shen said: "The deeper the inner strength and the more proficient the practice, the more powerful the acupuncture technique will be. However, this technique must not be known to others, otherwise the teacher will be spared. I can't help you." He yawned: "These days, you should seize the time to practice. One day, when the energy can flow to Shaochong point, come and talk to me again." He smiled coquettishly: "I have worked hard for a long time, you should go now. Bring me a jar of wine to reward you."
"Don't worry, I'll get you some wine right away." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "By the way, master, which level of martial arts is the highest?"
"Generally speaking, there are nine levels in total." Pharmacist Shen said: "The first to third levels are called the Small Heaven Realm, the fourth to the sixth levels are the Middle Heaven Realm, and those above the sixth level are the Great Heaven Realm!"
"Is there no master more powerful than the Great Heaven Realm?"
Pharmacist Shen thought for a moment and then said: "That's the Wutian realm. If you can break through the ninth level, you can't judge by grade. However, there are very few Wutian realm masters in this world, and you probably won't see them in this life. "
"What rank is the master now?"
Pharmacist Shen stroked his beard and said proudly: "With one more step, I can enter the Great Heaven Realm."
"So, the master is still only at the sixth level?" Qin Xiao was a little disappointed.
Pharmacist Shen opened his eyes angrily and said angrily: "You know nothing. There are many masters in the Great Heaven Realm in the world. There are not many even in the Zhongtian Realm. You don't understand anything. Don't talk nonsense." It seems. Feeling that this was not enough, he added: "If you kid can break through to the Zhongtian realm in this life, then you should go to the temple to burn incense. Stop talking nonsense and get the wine quickly."
Qin Xiao gained a lot today and was very satisfied. He went to the prison room to get a jar of wine and threw it to Pharmacist Shen.
He was very happy to learn this acupuncture technique today. When Niu Zhi left, he pointed at the wall alone in the class room, even though he knew that it was impossible to poke a hole in the wall like Yaoshi Shen did. , but also happy with each other.
However, I feel a little frustrated when I think that I can't even use my inner strength to at least punch the acupoints, and I haven't learned the acupoint skills yet, let alone break through the wall with my finger strength.
At the end of the day, he had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
How could Shen Yaoshi, the dignified Senior Brother of Jian Gu, come to Turtle City? He is now 90% sure that this old guy's fight in the market was probably intentional, with the purpose of running into the prison.
It's so big, what's he doing in prison? Does he have a masochistic habit?
What makes Qin Xiao even more confused is how come he has been practicing internal strength for half a year?
Previously, according to the exhalation method of "The Ancient Intention and Qi Jue", the internal energy can be transported out of the Dantian immediately. In this way, the internal energy in one's body is likely to be related to the "Ancient Intention and Qi Jue".
However, it has only been two days since I obtained the [Immortal Spiritual Energy Technique], and I have only practiced it twice in total. How could I be mistaken for having practiced it for half a year?
The mysterious old woman also said personally that even if she practiced hard day and night, it would take her a year and a half to achieve a small success. How could she achieve anything in just two days?
My heart was full of doubts, and I thought that if I saw the mysterious old woman again and asked her, maybe I could explain my doubts.
It's just that there was a gap of more than half a year between the first two times I saw the mysterious old woman. I don't know what year or month it will be when I see her next time.
Strangely enough, when Qin Xiao thought of the mysterious old woman, the figure of Mapo appeared in Qin Xiao's mind.
He smiled helplessly, thinking that he was so careless that he could suspect Mapo.
Although he had realized last night that Wen Butao was killed by his wife and his sworn brothers, Qin Xiao really couldn't bear to tell him the truth now, thinking that Wen Butao would be escorted to Fenggan Mansion the day after tomorrow. In the past two days, It is better to let Wen Budao spend his time in a down-to-earth manner, and wait until the day he leaves to find an opportunity to reveal something to him.
When he was on his way off from work, Qin Xiao's head grew bigger when he thought that there was a crazy woman at home. He thought that he might as well stay in Jiazi Prison tonight to avoid being tortured by that crazy woman again when he went back.
Although I thought so in my heart, after much thought, I still packed up and left the Yamen and returned to Mumu Lane.
When passing by Mapo's door, Qin Xiao couldn't help but stop and look inside.
It was dark, and there were no lights in the oil shop. I could vaguely see an old woman sitting on a chair in the house, wrapped in a linen robe. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't see it at all. But if you looked closely, you could see an old woman sitting on a chair. It makes people feel a little eerie.
Qin Xiaoxiang said hello, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
The old woman was deaf and blinded, and she didn't know whether she was asleep or not while sitting in the chair.
It's pitiful to think about it.
Qin Xiao has never seen this old woman go out since she came to Mumu Lane. She is the first to open the door every day, and the last to close the door. When she comes back from work, she can almost be seen sitting on a chair, surrounded by a cloud of darkness. Shrouded, lonely and deserted.
I heard that Mapo's husband passed away very early, and his son originally ran the oil shop. During the Wutuo Rebellion, men in the city were recruited, and some went to the front lines to kill the enemy, while others were used to transport supplies.
After Mapo's son was recruited, he never came back. Later, someone sent him some pension money, but his body was not even seen.
The daughter-in-law and her children suddenly disappeared one day, with no whereabouts, and Mapo was left behind to live her life guarding the oil shop.
Neighbors in Mumu Lane knew that Mapo's life was not easy. They would come to her shop when she needed oil, and even helped her introduce customers. The business was not prosperous, but she could barely make a living by herself.
