Ming Lingzi Zhuo Songtao only heard the familiar voice, and did not identify for a moment which master it was. Now that his foot had been raised, he pretended that he was not in a good position and stepped on it. He was about to knock off the junior apprentice's ankle before he saw it.
He stepped on it, but he accidentally got a whisk wrapped around his calf. Then there was a gentle force that pulled him apart. He turned a few times before he staggered to a stop. When he looked up, he saw that it was Gongsun Zhenren.
.
Gongsun Zhenren put away the fly whisk and said calmly: "Ming Lingzi, come with me Yang Chaoxi, everyone else has dispersed!" Yang Zhaoxi got up from the ground, his nostrils were still bleeding. Gongsun Zhenren looked at it and let him go.
He first went back to his room to clean up, and then came to Ziji Palace to receive his punishment.
Yang Zhaoxi responded vaguely, then returned to the living room, cleaned and tidied up, and then walked to Ziji Palace. After entering the palace gate, he saw Zhuo Songtao holding a stick of incense in both hands and kneeling at the statue of Taoist God.
In front of him, he kept reciting scriptures, and there were eight sticks of incense placed beside him. Yang Chaoxi understood clearly, and followed the same pattern, came to another round seat next to it, and started from the prepared
He picked up one of the nine incense sticks and lit it, held it with both hands, and knelt in front of the statue of Tao Zun. Only then did Gongsun Zhenren standing beside him speak: "Why are the two young disciples fighting?"
Zhuo Songtao was the first to speak up: "Master, the two of us were discussing the method of 'using Qi to exert force'. Because we had different opinions, Junior Brother insisted on having a discussion with me. I didn't stop in time and hurt Junior Brother. Please punish me, Master!"
"
Yang Chaoxi's anger has not subsided, and he said in a loud voice: "Master, I originally wanted to have a simple discussion with Senior Brother Min Lingzi, but he suddenly tripped up. He is obviously narrow-minded and wants to take revenge on me!"
After hearing this, Gongsun Zhenren stroked his beard and said: "We who are cultivators of the Tao should be forthright in our words and clear in our thoughts. How can we avoid the important and take the easy and shirk the blame? You two argued about Taoism at the beginning, but ended up fighting each other. This is really not what a Taoist would do.
.You two don’t have to go for lunch today. You can stay in this hall to think about your mistakes. You can only leave after the incense and incense offerings are finished.” After saying that, he looked at Zhuo Songtao again, “Ming Lingzi, as a person
The eldest disciple of Chengxuzi cannot follow the example, but behaves like a drunken village boy, and finally wants to commit murder and hurt others. After today's kneeling incense, I will be punished by copying the "Tao De Zhen" three times, and send it to me here tomorrow at Youshi." After that.
Out of the main hall.
Zhuo Songtao knew that he had acted frivolously today. In the future, when his master Chengxuzi was in better health, he would inevitably be punished again, and he felt a little regretful in his heart. When he saw Zhenren Gongsun leaving, he quietly turned to the side and said: "Junior brother Zhaoxi! Does your nose still hurt?
?It’s my senior brother’s fault today, I’m here to apologize to you!”
When Yang Zhaoxi saw what he said, she stepped down and said, "It doesn't hurt much anymore! Senior brother is serious, I was the one who offended today, and senior brother should be punished a little. But...it's just that senior brother's boxing skills are really admirable."
, how to make those soft punches powerful?"
Zhuo Songtao didn't hide his clumsiness. Hearing his younger brother's question, he raised his eyebrows and said like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "This Cuiyun Taoist skill is a set of boxing skills created by the master. Its main function is to assist the Taoist skills."
Practice. For example, the "Five Animals Play" is practiced by Taoist priests, and we also have it in our temple. This Cuiyun Taoist practice is based on the temple owner's own experience of practicing Taoism for many years, and also consults the breathing, breathing, and thinking of many Taoist friends.
Shouyi, looking inside, subduing qi, collecting qi and other methods, imitating the idea of "Five Animals", cutting off the extraneous parts of martial arts and dance movements, and only taking the movements that can relax the muscles, activate blood circulation, and open acupuncture points, and connect them together
It has been made up, and there have been occasional additions and deletions in recent years. After practicing for a long time, it is really smooth all over the body. This is just one thing, and all the Taoists in the temple are impressed by it!"
Yang Chaoxi asked again: "Just relaxing the muscles and activating the blood, opening the acupoints and opening the orifices is still quite insufficient! What if we face an enemy?"
Zhuo Songtao alternately moved his stiff arms, held the incense stick again, and then smiled and said: "Of course it is not enough! There is a slang saying, 'sharpen the knife to chop firewood by mistake'. Once the muscles and bones are opened, start practicing again."
With those fists, feet, and weapons used to fight each other, you will know what it means to get twice the result with half the effort and make a thousand miles in a day!"
"So according to senior brother, Gongsun Zhenren also knows some skills in fists, kicks, and weapons?" Yang Zhaoxi asked hurriedly, as if he had dug a rich mine.
"Of course he understands it. Or... not only understands it, it should be said that he is good at it. Once Changyuan Zhenren was chatting with the master of the temple, and inadvertently asked about the master's family affairs. I was just waiting on the side. It is said that in the first year of Kaiyuan
, the saint celebrated the "Qianqiu Festival" and summoned a new girl from the Gongsun family to dance with the sword. For a while, it caused a crowd of spectators. This Gongsun woman has become famous since then, shocking Chang'an and everyone in the world.
Called 'Gongsun Auntie'. This 'Gongsun Auntie' is actually the eldest sister of the Guanzhu family. It turns out that the Gongsun family, who broke away from the family when Guanzhu was learning Taoism, is not a famous family since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, but it is a swordsman family.
"Master Changyuan is here, firstly to talk about scriptures and Taoism, and secondly to learn Gongsun's sword skills." Zhuo Songtao lowered his voice and said slowly.
"Then why don't you teach it to everyone?" Yang Chaoxi's curiosity was aroused, and she continued to ask.
"I heard this mentioned by Master Chengxuzi. The master of the temple is fond of Taoism. He is originally pure and avoids military service. He often tells the Taoists in the temple that 'soldiers are an unlucky weapon and may be evil, so those who have Taoism will not live there.'"
'The meaning of the scriptures. Therefore, I have taught a lot about fists and kicks, but weapons are strictly prohibited." When Zhuo Songtao said this, Yang Chaoxi suddenly realized that during these days, he had never seen a Taoist practicing weapons.
Of course, even those who use sticks are very few.
Yang Zhaoxi also moved her stiff arms, but she also made up her mind: after receiving this punishment today, from tomorrow onwards she should work hard to practice the breathing method taught by Changyuan Master and the "Cuiyun Dao Gong" in the temple.
When Master Chang Yuan comes back, give the master a surprise. Also, find an opportunity to pester the master to learn some practical boxing skills, sword skills, etc.
With this thought in mind, when the nine sticks of incense were burned out, it was almost midnight. Yang Chaoxi stood up hungrily, bowed to Gongsun Zhenren, who was sitting round beside the hall, and then stiffened his legs and walked out of the hall slowly.
I walked into the kitchen to find something to eat, but I saw Senior Brother Dian Zao Zhu Jieran chasing him out with a wooden spoon with a dark face. Senior Brother Zhuo Songtao in front was running and stuffing things into his mouth.
He said vaguely: "Senior Brother Zhu... don't chase me... it's just a piece of millet cake, not worth it..."
When Yang Zhaoxi saw this, she turned around and limped out, but gave up the idea of going in to steal food. All the way to the living room, she saw Niu Pang'er sleeping alone on the wooden bed, and the other two people didn't know what they were doing.
I was looking for some water, ready to drink it to satisfy my hunger, when I saw three small pieces of millet cake neatly arranged beside Niu Pang'er on my half of the bed, and I felt a little warm in my heart. I knew it.
The three friends were afraid that they would starve, so they stole it from the courtyard during lunch, so they drank the water and choked down the three pieces of millet cake one by one.
Although the days in the temple are a bit monotonous and hard, they are very regular and have no worries about meals. Taoist Gongsun has a simple temperament and is devoted to Taoism. He also leads a group of Taoists to chant sutras and practice martial arts. He forgets his skills and seldom happens.
Discord and conflict. Just like Yang Chaoxi and Zhuo Songtao's vindictiveness, there are only three or five cases in a year, but they are still punished by kneeling incense and copying scriptures.
As the four little Taoist boys stayed in this contemplation for a long time, they were able to taste a hint of sweetness from the monotony and hardship of Taoism. During the busy farming season, the four of them returned to Yangliu Villa to help the family with farm work and bring some rice with them.
Grain, cloth and silk were returned to the Taoist temple to fill their incense supplies. The villagers of Yangliu Villa saw that Luoyang had stabilized and its prosperity had returned, and some of them moved their families back. Guan Dashi organized a regiment to train troops, helped transport their belongings, and since
There is a lot of joy and sadness, no need to go into details.
With the training of breathing techniques, "Cuiyun Dao Kung" and other boxing techniques, Yang Zhaoxi's martial arts are also getting better and better. After two or three years, the benefits of both internal and external training also begin to appear. The most obvious
The performance is that only the three of them, Guan Huer, Niu Pang'er, and Sun Hunian, can suppress him.
In the afternoon of that day, the three of them ran to the ancient tree behind the Taoist temple. Yang Zhaoxi pointed to a concave hole in the trunk and said shamelessly: "This is what my master Changyuan Zhenren used to smash with a snowball...
...It was a little bigger than this at that time...This tree has also matured with age, and it can actually make the wound smaller! In short, I will definitely be as powerful as the master in the future! If any of you dare not listen to my orders, Master Yang, I will do it alone
Give me a locust stone, bang, bang, bang!" Yang Zhaoxi quickly tapped her chest three times with her hand, "I'll spread the flowers on your three chests!"
After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other, then rushed forward together with shouts, and pushed Yang Chaoxi under the tree and beat her up...
Vaguely I heard Niu Pang'er mutter: "I brag about this every time, there's nothing new at all..."
