Gu Shengchao and Lu Chuan had not seen each other since their separation in Beijing. He had experienced a lot recently, and it would take some time to tell them.
Fang Xingdan saw that it was already late, so he went out to settle Ding Ying and Wan Yanxi, and came back and said: "It's getting late. Ding Ying and Wan Yanxi have already gone to bed. Sheng Chao will sleep in the east wing first. There is plenty of time these days. You two are chatting."
Gu Shengchao stood up hurriedly and said: "Two seniors, take a rest, and the disciples will leave."
Lu Chuan patted him on the shoulder and warned: "After you finish what you are doing, go back to the Four Kings Valley first. There is a surprise waiting for you."
"What's the matter?" Gu Shengchao racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.
After calculating the time, Lu Chuan said softly: "If Wanruo has been pregnant for a long time, the child will probably turn over when you go back."
"ah?"
Gu Shengchao was shocked. Wan Ruo and Liu Ximei never mentioned this matter in their letters.
"Ah, what? If we hadn't made a special trip to the Four Kings Valley, we wouldn't have known about this."
Lu Chuan snorted, not knowing whether it was envy or hatred: "You must have been blessed in your previous life to make Junior Sister Wanruo willing to marry you. Looking back twenty years ago, she was very ambitious. You are so arrogant that even my senior brother doesn’t look down on you.”
The ancient sage bowed deeply: "It was Senior Lu's teachings that gave me, a cripple with a damaged Dantian, a new life. Only then did I have the capital to compete with others. In the final analysis, it is Senior Lu who worked hard and made great achievements, thanks to your blessing." .”
Seeing Lu Chuan's overjoyed expression, Fang Xingdan smiled and scolded: "Sheng Chao seems honest and honest, but it turns out that he has also learned the evil ways of flattering others. Seeing how much fun he is having, you can't even find the truth."
Gu Shengchao said hurriedly: "Everything I say is true, disciple. I will resign now."
He left the main room with a red face.
When they came to the courtyard, it was quiet everywhere. According to Ding Ying's habit, she and she should sleep in the west wing.
Gu Shengchao released his perception detection. As soon as he reached the window, he collided with another perception, causing tiny ripples.
This feeling was all too familiar. It was because Wanyan Xi had not slept yet and was still using her senses to understand the new environment.
Gu Shengchao immediately put away his senses and went back to sleep peacefully.
Lying in bed unable to sleep, Gu Shengchao tossed and turned, thinking about the solution to the damage to Ding Ying's Dantian.
The superior kung fu he mastered was basically taught by Lu Chuan. Since Lu Chuan had no choice but to start from other places.
Currently, the only things Lu Chuan doesn't know are the Phoenix Dance Sword Technique and the Meridian Reverse Movement Technique.
Lu Chuan had long known the essence of Feng Wu's swordsmanship on Snake Island, and the Five Soul Formation evolved from it. The only thing that didn't have anything to do with it was the retrograde meridians.
It was accidentally obtained by the ancient sage Chao when he was chasing Zhuang Lutao at Chijin Mountain in the Four Kings Valley. It was of great benefit to the Dantian and the movement of the meridians.
Gu Shengchao made up his mind and tried to let Ding Ying practice the technique of retrograde meridians, hoping that a miracle would happen and Ding Ying's internal strength would be improved.
When I woke up, it was already bright. Gu Shengchao came to the yard. Only Ding Ying and Wan Yanxi were washing their clothes.
"The food is hot in the pot. You can serve it yourself. Sister Wanyan and I need to wash these clothes quickly." Ding Ying shook off the water on her hands.
Seeing the harmonious appearance of the two of them, Gu Shengchao felt relieved and went to eat alone, neatly clearing the dishes and chopsticks.
"Where did Senior Lu and Senior Fang go?" Gu Shengchao went over to help, wrung out the washed clothes and hung them on the rope to dry.
Ding Ying was sitting on a low stool and was a little tired from bending down to work. She straightened up and moved around and said: "The perfume shop has reopened. There are many things to deal with. The masters and uncles are all there. I wanted to go there too, but they let me go." I rest in peace and recuperate, and when I have nothing to do, I wash clothes with Wanyan to pass the time."
After the three of them washed their clothes, Gu Shengchao did not shy away from Wan Yanxi's presence and carefully taught Ding Ying the technique of retrograde meridians.
There was a problem with Ding Ying's Dantian and meridians, and the Qi could not be expanded and released smoothly, resulting in the inability to use her strength, and she was naturally much weaker.
The important part of the retrograde meridians is to separate the acupoints and meridians from each other. After the two are separated, it does not matter whether the true qi is normal or retrograde in the meridians, and will not cause any harm to the body. When the retrograde Qi is stable and the acupuncture points are gradually returned to their original positions, they will naturally not be affected.
Everything is easier said than done.
Ding Ying tried many times with the help of Gu Shengchao, but it always didn't go well. She was inevitably upset and couldn't calm down. Gu Shengchao had to rest first and wait for her to calm down before trying again.
It took a whole day for Ding Ying to barely master the basic operations, and the two agreed to practice again tomorrow.
After dinner, Ding Ying drank tea and chatted with her master.
Wanyanxi was bored and found a chair to sit under the eaves of the west wing to practice perception.
She didn't dare to release the scimitar completely, just like on the grassland, she would open and close the scimitar so much that it flew around. The space in the small yard was so small that it couldn't be turned. Like a juggler, she threw more than ten scimitars vertically, repeating the cycle in sequence.
The actresses in Goulan and Wase play with their hands, but Wanyanxi is different. She sits still and controls everything with her senses.
Ding Ying looked curious and sat in the room to watch.
Lu Chuan also noticed Wan Yanxi's unique practice method. After she retracted all the scimitars, she slowly moved over with her disabled right leg.
"Senior, please take a seat." Wan Yanxi sensed Lu Chuan's approach and hurriedly gave up her seat.
Lu Chuan sat down and said, "In my spare time, I also practice sensing and coping with unexpected needs. I would like to discuss this with the girl."
Wanyan Xi was overjoyed. Last night, Lu Chuan broke through the Seven-Star Sword Formation in an instant. Although she couldn't see it with her own eyes, she could feel it. The few moves made her thrilling, and she was in awe of Lu Chuan.
Hearing what he said at this time, it was clear that he wanted to teach Kung Fu, so he immediately saluted and said: "Senior, please teach me, I am all ears to this junior."
Lu Chuan also liked her intelligence and said with a smile: "We ordinary people use our eyes to see the road when we walk on the street. No matter who we see, we won't react. But if you focus on one person, that person will definitely act strangely." Miss, do you know the reason for this feeling?"
Gu Shengchao was reading "Detailed Explanation of Formulas" under the lamp in the east wing, hoping to find new content that could help Ding Ying. When he heard the two people talking outside, he also realized that he was puzzled by the knowledge. He hurriedly walked out and stood aside with his hands down in silence. listen.
Wan Yanxi thought for a moment and said: "Is it the same as my perception, the more concentrated you are, the harder it is to hide it, and it will be exposed early, and haste makes waste?"
"Yeah, almost. The girl relies entirely on her senses to detect the surrounding situation. Once you meet a master and the other party knows your existence in advance, it will be bad." Lu Chuan said worriedly.
Wan Yanxi said truthfully: "What the senior said is absolutely true. The junior is blind, and the range of detection by perception is limited. Once the perception relied on is discovered by the opponent, it will be basically passive and it will be impossible to escape."
Lu Chuan nodded: "It's not difficult to solve this. Just like when we walk on the street, as long as we don't focus on one person, no one will feel strange. The same is true for perception. We need to know how to release it, and we need to know how to release it appropriately. The more you look back, the more casually you look, the harder it is for the other party to notice. The more you want to detect, the more your position will be exposed."
"Qian has benefited as much as he has suffered. Is this what senior meant?" Wan Yanxi seemed to understand a little better.
Lu Chuan said with satisfaction: "Perception can also be divided into hardness and softness. Hardness is easy to break. You have to learn to accept it, so that you can detect what you need unknowingly without letting the other party notice. When traveling in the world, the most important thing is to protect your life and keep the green mountains. If you don't worry about having no firewood, using too much force will lead to unreasonable disasters."
Wan Yanxi was thinking when Lu Chuan said, "Girl, stand behind me, let's go back to back."
Following Lu Chuan's instructions, Wan Yanxi stood with her back to him.
"Can you feel me?" Lu Chuan asked.
"able."
"Okay, just stretch out your finger and make a number."
Wan Yanxi didn't understand what Lu Chuan meant, so she retracted her thumb and stretched out four fingers on her right hand.
"It's four, right?" Lu Chuan said softly.
Wanyanxi was horrified.
It's not unusual for Lu Chuan to be able to sense her four fingers. What's strange is that she didn't detect Lu Chuan's perception. In other words, Lu Chuan locked everything about her without her knowledge.
It would be dangerous if, during a conflict, the other party could target her and find a way to become invisible without her knowing anything about it.
At that moment, there was only a collision with the ancient sage's perception, and he was aware of it.
"You have to learn to accept it." Wan Yanxi said to himself, as if he had some enlightenment.
"Yes, only by being extremely yin and soft can you control the world. There are many things that you can't force, so it's best to stop in moderation." Lu Chuan said, dragging his right leg and slowly returning to the house.
"You have to learn to collect it." Wan Yanxi muttered, and sat directly on the ground in the courtyard, regardless of whether the dirt was dirty or not and would stick to her clothes, and she thought hard alone.
Just as Gu Shengchao was about to return to the east wing to continue reading, Wan Yanxi's perception had already enveloped him.
"It seems difficult to learn how to close." Gu Shengchao shook his head, sat under the lamp and picked up the "Detailed Explanation of Formulas". The door was still open and he did not close it.
Not long after, Gu Shengchao felt that the heavy sensations on his body gradually faded away, and finally faded away.
"Did Wan Yanxi go back to sleep?" Gu Shengchao turned his head, but she was still sitting there as if in trance.
Stretching out his palm and shaking it, Gu Shengchao said softly: "Are you asleep?"
Wan Yanxi smiled: "I just tried it on Brother Gu. Brother Gu was willing to practice with me. Wan Yanxi is very grateful."
Gu Shengchao was stunned and suddenly understood: "Could it be that you have learned it?"
"Well, that's right. Brother Gu was counting the numbers behind my back." Wan Yanxi requested.
Gu Shengchao turned around and held out three fingers.
"Is it three?" Wan Yanxi asked hesitantly. It seemed that he was still not very proficient as a beginner.
This time it was Gu Shengchao's turn to be shocked. He had not sensed any fluctuations in profound energy just now, and Wan Yanxi completed the detection quietly.
"How did you do it?" Gu Shengchao felt incredible.
Lu Chuan did not teach any formulas or techniques. Wan Yanxi achieved a breakthrough with just a few ambiguous words. It was incredible.
"Want to learn? I can teach you." Wan Yanxi smiled mysteriously, then stood up and patted the dirt off her dress.
