In Zhao Qing's view, someone like Li Qiu Shui could be jealous of Child Lao and shout something behind her head at the critical juncture of her practice, causing her to go crazy and become a dwarf and never grow up. This shows his character. Evil in nature.
Wu Yazi, on the other hand, is more like a literary lover who excessively pursues perfection because he has learned too many things, and has a deep perfectionism.
People like him can't actually fall in love with others, they can only fall in love with the perfect image in their own imagination.
Tong Lao and Li Qiu Shui were naturally not perfect people, so he projected his mind on an image created based on Li Qiu Shui, and became obsessed with it, which ultimately led to a tragic ending.
The more a person pursues perfection, the less perfect the result will be. "If you follow the limitless, it will be a waste." This is the truth that Zhao Qing came to realize from his experience.
However, in her view, life is inherently imperfect, so she pursues it. Only when you know more can you realize that you don’t know more.
The path of spiritual practice is the path of pursuing perfection. Only by moving forward step by step and breaking through all obstacles can we "have no obstacles in our mind and live a long and happy life."
It can be said that from this perspective, Wu Yazi's pursuit of perfection is actually correct, but he should not put this thought on feelings, but on cultivation.
"Senior Wuyazi, did you know that your junior sister Li Qiushui is now the concubine of the Xixia Kingdom and the mother of the current Xixia Emperor?"
Zhao Qing thought for a while and revealed ruthlessly: "Judging from the fact that the princess of Xixia Kingdom is already over ten years old, she was probably planning this matter in Xixia Kingdom long before Ding Chunqiu attacked you."
After hearing her words, Wu Yazi's face suddenly changed, and his whole body trembled with disbelief. After being silent for a while, he asked in a complicated tone: "Miss Zhao Qing, what you said is true. ?”
"It's true."
Wu Yazi took the initiative to make friends with him, and Zhao Qing was naturally inclined to him. He also added: "As for the successor of the Xiaoyao Sect you are looking for, I also have a good candidate to recommend, which is the daughter of your daughter Li Qingluo, which is you. Granddaughter, Wang Yuyan."
Judging from the fact that Wang Yuyan crushed Murong Fu, who was ten years older than her, in terms of martial arts knowledge, her martial arts talent was undoubtedly one of the best in the world. Although she did not know how talented she was in internal skills, as a descendant of the Xiaoyao sect, she was at least Much stronger than Xu Zhu, who has mediocre qualifications.
"Li Qingluo's family lives in Taihu Mantuo Villa, which is adjacent to Yanziwu where Murong's family is located. I have visited before, so I know about this."
The visit here is naturally made up to increase the credibility of the words.
Wu Yazi looked dejected and had a lot of thoughts. He was silent for a long time. Suddenly he showed gratitude. He bowed to Zhao Qing with all his strength and said, "Thank you very much, Miss, for letting me know the truth of the matter."
"Alas! Being strong in martial arts may not necessarily be a blessing. People who are not even half-hearted in martial arts are carefree, but they have so many competitions and so many worries. If I had only learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I would not have had any knowledge of martial arts. If I learn the skills like Qing Ning, I will be much happier in this life."
"However, since I am already in the current environment, there is no need for me to feel resentful. Instead, I should deal with it indifferently, so as to achieve the ultimate state of 'forgetting all traces, and doing nothing in the world.'"
As if he finally realized a key truth, the painful look on his face gradually faded away, looking particularly peaceful and peaceful, and his breath became ethereal, giving him a feeling of blending in with the surrounding environment.
It turns out that Li Qiushui's little sister is named Li Qingning? Zhao Qing secretly thought in his heart, "Heaven has no action to keep it pure, and earth has no action to keep it peaceful. Therefore, the two inactions are combined, and all things are born." This is from "Zhuangzi·Bliss".
The highest happiness is to be carefree and joyless; the highest praise is to neither praise nor criticize.
It is precisely because of the inaction of heaven that it can be pure and empty; it is also because of the inaction of earth that it can be peaceful. Therefore, the inaction of heaven and earth is combined, and all things can evolve and grow.
The name Li Qingning sounds more righteous than Li Qiushui. It's a pity that she didn't practice martial arts, so she probably died of old age.
Zhao Qing couldn't help but admire Wu Yazi when he saw that he recovered from the painful state to calmness within a short time, and vaguely touched the realm of "carefree, joyless" and "pure and tranquil" mentally.
Immediately, she had an enlightenment and knew that this was the accumulation of his "reclusion" in the past thirty years. Under this special opportunity, she was naturally induced to release it.
Before that, Zhao Qing had some vague suspicions. He felt that the martial arts of the Xiaoyao sect seemed to have a mental state that could easily fail to catch up with the state of internal energy, leading to an imbalance of spirit and xinxing, just like Li Qiushui and Tong Lao.
But after seeing Wu Yazi's enlightenment, she shook her head in her heart and corrected her view:
It should be that when the mind becomes "free", it is easy to gain understanding in the nature of heaven and earth, but it also has the defect that the mind is easy to get lost.
This gain and loss is exactly the characteristic of Xiaoyao sect's martial arts.
Zhao Qing's thoughts moved slightly, and he said again: "Senior gave me credit, but I repaid him with this kind of 'news', which is already my fault. I don't know, how should I understand the state of mind that senior just realized?"
In her induction, along with the change in Wu Yazi's state of mind, the opponent's almost lifeless body suddenly gave birth to a new vitality. Although it was far from curing his injuries, it almost made up for these three injuries. Ten years of mental wear and tear on him.
Wu Yazi's eyes seemed to contain both depth and indifference at the same time. He stared at Zhao Qing calmly, and suddenly he sighed and said slowly:
"Miss Zhao Qing, with your cultivation, there is no need to call me senior. "Zhuangzi: Joy" says, 'Look at the beginning and there is no birth.' Everything in the world only changes, but there is no birth or death."
Seeing Zhao Qing's outstanding insights in martial arts, he changed his title and regarded her as an equal or even a higher status.
"It's not just a formless thing, but it's originally formless; it's not just a formless thing, but it's basically breathless. It's mixed between the mangosteens, it changes to have Qi, Qi changes to form, shape changes to life. Now it's changed and died. This is the sign. It goes with the four seasons of spring, autumn, winter and summer.”
"'Life is also the disciple of death, and death is also the beginning of life.' This is the main purpose of the 'Eternal Life Changchun Kung'. Once you understand the profound meaning contained in this point, the cycle of life and death is just a change of Qi."
When Tong Lao was young, she once taught Wu Yazi a small part of her "Eternal Youth Eternal Spring Kung Fu" about youth. However, due to the lack of the most fundamental method of internal power operation, he has only been able to get a glimpse of it. , it only achieves the superficial beauty effect.
Once understood at this moment, Beiming's magical power has gradually approached the realm of "life and death turn into qi, and qi turns into life and death", converting a lot of extra vitality.
"That's right!" Zhao Qing couldn't help but sigh when he heard Wu Yazi's explanation.
The other party's words undoubtedly revealed the gist of various life-extending exercises, indicating the transformation between life and death. There was also a "tangible" stage in between, which gave her various related insights.
"The four seasons of spring, autumn, winter and summer", spring is Shaoyang, autumn is Shaoyin, winter is Taiyin, and summer is Sun. "Suwen: The Theory of Four Qi Adjusting the Spirit" also says: "Nourish Yang in spring and summer, and nourish Yin in autumn and winter."
It is precisely "Yang Qi is rooted in Yin, and Yin Qi is rooted in Yang. Without Yin, Yang cannot be born. Without Yang, Yin cannot be transformed. If there is complete Yin, Yang Qi will not be extreme. If there is complete Yang, Yin Qi will not be weak." The rotation of the two poles has transformed from two rituals into four phenomena, becoming more in-depth and detailed.
The rotation of the four seasons is like the growth rings of trees, leaving indelible traces for people.
If the changes of trees withered and prosperous are mapped onto the human body, then the great state of "neither withered nor prosperous, neither withered nor prosperous" should be the birth of an illusory new one inside the original double tree after repeated rotations. Saplings, thus allowing both prosperity and decline to coexist?
…
Suddenly, Zhao Qing jumped into the air, pointed at the Baihui Point on Wu Yazi's head, and transformed all the stored Kuchan Qi into pure Yang energy, and poured it down.
It was a hot but gentle breath, continuous and dense, intermittent and continuous, without any hint of impatience. It came from "Baihui" along the "Chengjiang", "Lianquan" and "Tiantu" acupoints. , enter the most important acupoint "Tanzhong Point" in "Beiming Magic";
Install the latest version. 】
Then from the "Tanzhong point", it turns into thousands of thin wisps of hot air and disperses into various acupoints throughout the body.
"Baihui point" belongs to the Du meridian, with yin contained in the yang, so it can access the yin and yang veins and connect the meridian points all over the body; "Tanzhong point" belongs to the Ren meridian, where all the qi of the human body belong;
With this luck, Zhao Qing injected the pure yang breath into Wu Yazi's body, and the "Baihui" and "Tanzhong" that he appointed as the governor's second channel dispersed throughout his body, and then breathed back the pure yin breath from his body, and it continued to rotate. The internal energy operation method of the "half withered and half prosperous" state in Kurong Zen Kung Fu.
But the difference is that Ku Chan was originally practiced by one person, but Zhao Qing changed it to the form of "one withered and one prosperous" with two people respectively, using the true energy attracted from the withered and prosperous place as an introduction, and integrated into the understanding of "life and death". With the understanding of "turning into Qi", Wu Yazi was treated.
Of course, if the Ren and Du meridians were not located in the lower limbs and the meridians were not completely damaged, she would not be able to use this method.
Half an hour later, Zhao Qing retracted his fingers, jumped down slightly, and looked at Wu Yazi, who was full of vitality and full of energy.
Although it did not have much effect on the completely broken meridians of the lower limbs, according to her induction, with the partial repair of the meridians of the upper body, the skill that the other party can exert has been roughly increased to 40 to 50%.
At the same time, with the gradual recovery of the mind and body, the life span has also been extended by twenty to thirty years.
In fact, as far as treating others is concerned, according to Zhao Qing's inference, except for the two people who practice the Zen technique of drying up and relying on breath cooperation to reach the state of "neither withering nor withering, and neither withering nor rising", otherwise, "one person" "Withering, one person is prosperous" is the limit of this skill.
Relying on the ability of "sympathy between heaven and man" to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, during the treatment process, she continued to replenish the output of infuriating energy without any loss of vitality.
Of course, the reason why Zhao Qing healed Wu Yazi was not purely for doing good deeds.
Under the influence of "yang withering and yin flourishing", which is equivalent to the "Yin retreating talisman" of Dan Taoism, her Zhiyin Qi becomes colder, which has the effect of refining and purifying.
At the same time, Wu Yazi's meridians and zhenqi are gradually becoming familiar with the methods of "yin withering and yang flourishing" and "yang fire entering", paving the way for the exercises she wants to conduct next.
Compared with Jiumozhi, Wu Yazi's cultivation level and martial arts quality are obviously higher. After recovering, he may be able to bring a lot of inspiration to her.
…
After recovering from the remnants of the treatment, Wu Yazi looked at Zhao Qing, tears of joy could not help but appear in the corners of his eyes, and he sighed with gratitude:
"Miss Zhao, I don't know how to repay such a great kindness. If there is anything in the future that requires my and Xinghe's help, we will do our best."
Even if one reaches the state of "no worries, no joy" and "purity and tranquility", it does not mean that people have lost the ability to "worry" and "joy", but it means that people can enter this state anytime and anywhere when needed. The state of spiritual perfection.
For Wu Yazi, he helped find a suitable successor and extended his life for twenty or thirty years. Such a great favor, of course he would not stop the reveal of his true emotions.
"Other things should wait until we are completely cured." Zhao Qing thought for a while and asked: "Mr. Wuyazi, I wonder what kind of peerless master your master is? What kind of spiritual realm has he reached? ? Is it possible to still be alive today?"
"My master, what is Xiaoyaozi's cultivation level?"
Wu Yazi pondered for a while and then replied: "According to what my master said, he has already reached the level of a 'god-man' and his lifespan may reach three hundred years. When he taught the three of us martial arts, he was already one hundred and seventeen years old. Eighty years old.”
"But in the past sixty or seventy years, the Xiaoyao Sect was first divided into two, and then traitors started to cause rebellion, but he has never appeared. I am afraid he has passed away."
"The realm of 'god-man'?" Zhao Qing's thoughts moved slightly and he asked aloud.
Is it the state of "cultivating the soul"? Or the "god man" in "Xiaoyaoyou"? No matter which one it is, it is an extremely amazing achievement.
Wu Yazi nodded and said in a deep voice: "In the mountain of Miaogushe, there are gods and men. Their skin is like ice and snow, and their skin is like a virgin. They don't eat grains, but inhale the wind and drink the dew. They ride on the clouds, ride on the flying dragons, and swim." Far beyond the four seas; its divine concentration makes things unblemished and crops ripe every year."
"Just like the saying 'Don't eat grains, inhale the wind and drink the dew', Master has never eaten anything. "Beyond grains and grains, obey the qi and refine the body." Just absorbing the essence of heaven and earth is enough to maintain vitality."
"As for 'riding the clouds and controlling the flying dragon', although there is no real 'flying dragon' to control, he has also reached the state of 'flying on the wind'. In fact, according to the master, the fundamental technique he practiced , it’s called ‘Xiaoyao Yufeng’.”
"Eliminate grains and eliminate grains, subdue Qi and refine body"? Zhao Qing was slightly shocked. After breaking through the "sympathy between heaven and man", due to the large amount of heaven and earth energy replenished, she was able to have one meal for several days and eat some fruits and vegetables, which was enough for her body.
But there is still a long way to go before we can completely "break up".
However, considering the differences in skills, it is difficult to estimate the specific situation.
As for "walking on the wind", although it is most likely just soaring at a low altitude, "flying" a distance of tens of feet in one step, and relying on external force without falling to the ground in the middle, it is obviously not something that can be achieved by "sympathy between heaven and man".
The "flying dragon" and "flying dragon" here may be the "primordial spirit", which refers to the advanced state of "the yin and yang gods merge into one, and the primordial spirit flies out of the body", using the separated primordial spirit to further control the world between heaven and earth. Energy gradually reaches the state of "harmony between man and nature".
So, is the realm of "god-man" equivalent to another name for "unity of man and nature"? But in "Zhuangzi" there is already the term "heaven and man", so why do we need to change the name?
Having said that, is Xiaoyaozi still alive? Can he live to be three hundred years old as he said?
If he was still alive, why did he ignore these three disciples of Xiaoyao Sect? Is it emotionally weak? Or is there something wrong with practice?
"This is the 'Seven Treasures Ring', the token of the head of our Xiaoyao Sect, also known as the 'Xiaoyao Immortal Ring'. Master handed it to me personally, saying that it contained special secrets, and then left, never to be seen again. Second appearance.”
Seeing that Zhao Qing, a great benefactor, was very interested in Xiaoyaozi, Wuyazi thought slightly and took off a gem ring from his left hand, intending to lend it to her for a look to see if there was any chance of discovering the mystery in it.
Zhao Qing took the ring and observed it carefully. He saw that the gems on the ring were colorful, and there was a small space inside, filled with seven kinds of mercury, gold, jade, crystal, cinnabar, ball radiance, and coral. Different things.
It is said in "Tai Shang Lao Jun's Miao Jing of Nei Yong": "There are seven treasures in the human body, which are for the enrichment of the country and the peace of the people, and the fullness of energy and blood."
"Essence is mercury, blood is gold, energy is jade, marrow is crystal, brain is spiritual sand, kidneys are clams, heart is coral, these are the seven treasures, they will not be separated when they return, refine the great medicine, and all gods will become immortals. !”
Obviously, the seven treasures of the seven treasures ring refer to the seven things "essence, blood, marrow, brain, kidney, heart". Mercury, gold, jade, etc. are used as metaphors to emphasize the importance of the seven treasures of the human body.
So, the secret of the Seven Treasures Ring mentioned by Xiaoyaozi is actually the practice of "essence, blood, marrow, brain, kidney and heart" that makes people pay attention to it?
Zhao Qing thought secretly in his heart, tried to input some Qi into the ring, and put his spirit into it, checking its internal space to see if there was anything special about it.
For some reason, she had a feeling that this ring was not as simple as she thought.
