Chapter 126: The Blending of Man and Nature
At the end of March, when the spring flowers were blooming, Yu Qingcheng finally arrived at the SC Plain after another month's trek! After that, it was the address of the SC Recruit Company where she had just joined the work, and the Logistics Engineering University was also seated here. But Yu Tingcheng still didn't bother others, but turned around and headed north. Finally, in mid-April, she crossed the line of the Huai River in the Qinling Mountains and reached the Guanzhong Plain.
Guanzhong is the birthplace of Chinese civilization, and although Yu Chengcheng did not deliberately visit the cultural sites, he can also feel the unique air here.
This is also the starting point of Master Xuanzang's westward journey. Yu Qingcheng knew that his cultivation path had just begun.
"Persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no one in Yangguan in the west. ”
A few days later, Yu Qingcheng, who regained his spirits, changed into ordinary casual clothes, went west out of Chang'an, and walked towards the Hexi Corridor. This road began to be developed in the Qin and Han dynasties and flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties, but then slowly became desolate with the advent of the European Age of Discovery. Although in modern society, Hexi is more prosperous than in the old days, but if you deliberately avoid it, you can go to a truly deserted area.
And after more than three months of asceticism, Yu Qingcheng's heart has really begun to calm, so she doesn't need to deliberately pretend to be a monk, and completely devote her body and mind to the nature of heaven and earth.
Yu Chengcheng's body and mind have changed from deliberate to casual.
After more than three months, her hair grew back more than an inch, and her eyebrows also recovered some, but because she was not taken care of, and the rustic clothes she wore like migrant workers, she was a migrant worker from the countryside who went to the city, which was not eye-catching. After leaving the ancient city in the west, Yu Chengcheng really stepped on the westward road, and the scenery in front of him was completely changed: the south of the first line of the Huai River in the Qinling Mountains was green, and on the north bank, most of them were vast loess.
Such a clear middle line allows Yu Chengcheng to truly see the wonder of nature.
Another month later, by mid-May, Yu Chengcheng walked out of SX and arrived at the northern junction of Ganli and NX. Here, has really stepped into the Hexi Corridor, although the old prosperity is no longer there, but the changed geological landscape, different from the cultural landscape of the atmosphere of Middle-earth, but still tell people the glory of the past. In the inaccessible wilderness, there are occasionally traces of carving on some weathered rocks.
This made Yu Qingcheng feel some unexpected surprises.
Looking back at the dry calcareous earth, you can still see camel caravans walking in groups from time to time, with the red sun on the horizon, it is simply indescribably spectacular.
"Conquer Peng out of Hanse, return to the wild goose into Hutian. The desert is lonely, and the sunset on the long river is ......"
Even Yu Qingcheng, who has a low level of culture, directly felt the artistic conception of the ancient poets. Far away from the distractions of the town, the yellow sand flying on the vast Gobi Desert, she felt that her heart had also drifted to the nine heavens. With such a hiking practice, Yu Tingcheng has gone from being uncomfortable at first, to adapting later, and now he feels more and more comfortable, and his body is becoming more and more comfortable.
The boxing scripture says that people who practice martial arts cannot be afraid of hardship and tiredness, but only when they are tired and comfortable, comfortable, and at ease, this is the right way.
Yu Tingcheng knew that he had practiced correctly.
After walking for more than a month, I occasionally passed by a grassland of the Hui people, and I could already see herds of cattle and sheep on the withered yellow grassland. This is already the area of the northern plateau, occasionally whistling cold winds, and the dry Gobi intertwined, standing on the high slopes, you can see the natural landform of the northwest woven by the ravines, which is beautiful. "The north wind swept the ground and the grass folded, and the snow flew in August......
At the end of June in the Gregorian calendar, it is already the eighth month of the lunar calendar.
Yu Qingcheng's physique is very strong, and such a cold and warm, dry continental climate will not affect her too much.
On the contrary, passing by the Gobi and grasslands, as well as the occasional herdsmen, as well as people dressed completely differently from the Han people, all made Yu Tingcheng feel a sense of novelty, but intimacy. She seems to have gradually realized the kind of broad feelings that have lost the bird's nest but can take heaven and earth as their home. Finally, more than a month later, Yu Chengcheng crossed the GS corridor and walked to the territory of XJ.
At the end of July, XJ has reached a bumper harvest season.
In the densely populated Central Plains, I have never seen such a vast world and such a spectacular inland basin plain.
As long as you cross XJ, you can reach the end of Yu Allure's practice: the Pamir Plateau!
"There is no city for camping, and the rain and snow are in the desert. ”
The temperature difference between day and night here began to widen, so that Yu Chengcheng put on an old thin cotton coat, and walked deep and shallow in the sand, as if he really began to realize the pride and ambition of those ancient sages who went out of the West Gate. "When Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions, I don't know what season it was? Master Xuanzang went to the West to learn scriptures, and which path did he take? Maybe the result of his pursuit is not as spectacular as the road he has walked......
Yu Tingcheng suddenly felt that the process of pursuing the goal was also a kind of fun, and this fun was no less than the goal itself.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yu Qingcheng sat down on a flat open space, and took out a bag of skewers, a piece of cake, and a bottle of wine from his backpack. She found dry grass to make a fire, and she reheated the dry food while resting, and in a short time the roast meat and scones, coated with spicy seeds and cumin, had turned brown and gave off an attractive aroma. Yu Chengcheng drank wine, ate a whole bunch of mutton, and most of the cakes, and immediately felt full of strength.
Bang!......
At this moment, an extremely dazzling mushroom-shaped lightning suddenly flashed in the sky, almost stabbing out people's tears, and then, a muffled thunder sounded! Yu Qingcheng stood up, slightly startled in his heart, and then hurried to the bottom of a weathered rock. If you don't see it with your own eyes, those who are new to the city may think that these neatly arranged homestead-like rocks are the remains of stone houses left by ancient residents.
However, Yu Qingcheng now knows that these are mushroom rocks formed by natural weathering.
After burrowing under the mushroom rock, it only took a few breaths to make it dark, as if a solar eclipse had appeared, suddenly from day to night! XJ area has little rain a year, and precipitation only occurs in the summer and autumn seasons, and most of them are strong convective weather such as thunderstorms. Sure enough, just as Yu Qingcheng was wrapped in a rain cloth, a sound like a sieve stone instantly covered the entire earth.
Yu Qingcheng even saw the hailstone that bounced to his feet, bigger than an egg.
The light outside the mushroom rock flickered, and another muffled thunder came, shocking the lungs. Yu Tingcheng felt that his body seemed to be shocked by this thunder, and between the squirming of his chest and abdomen, he couldn't help but resonate! As the thunder in the sky continued to sound, Yu Tingcheng also adjusted his breathing, from the heart and lungs, stomach and spleen, including the large and small intestines to the rhythmic vibration together, and finally through the flow of blood, it was pulled to the whole body.
Yu Qingcheng's boxing skills can also fight thunder, but only now can she be so natural and casual.
"The thunder sound is the natural combination of heaven and earth, and it actually pulls into my body, this is the realm of the integration of man and nature? Yu Qingcheng felt the thunder sound of his body, and gradually blended with the natural thunder sound, regardless of each other, as if he had a kind of understanding.
In the past, Yu Chengcheng used boxing to produce the effect of thunder, which could only fight and kill, not maintain health.
And now, her thunder sound realm has reached the point of health preservation, truly improving her physique, and crossing to a new realm.
One is born, one is acquired!
After the night, a new day has begun. Yu Tingcheng walked out of the mushroom rock, looked at the ground covered with hail, and seemed to still be able to hear the thunder echoing in his ears! Slightly shaking his body, Yu Tingcheng could feel the force of nature when the flood swept his body, but this kind of power was no longer an irresistible existence in front of Yu Tingcheng today. Thinking of this, Yu Tingcheng suddenly had an epiphany.
That is a deliberate pursuit, but it is getting farther and farther away.
Now there is no deliberate pursuit, but closer to the goal.
Yu Qingcheng is now in the arid XJ Qaidam Basin, but he can still sense the heavy artistic conception at the bottom of the water flow in the south of the Yangtze River! Punching under the water is as light as on land, and practicing on land can be as heavy as the bottom of the water. After the hail finally stopped, Yu Qingcheng came to a desolate meadow to trim himself for a while, light a fire to eat, and also noticed an astonishing change in his body.
Her body has a sense of integration, and the places where there were still some subtle flaws in the previous strength are completely gone.
In the past, although Yu Chengcheng was sensitive all over his body and full of dark energy, it was difficult to make up for these subtle loopholes no matter what. And this half-year long journey has kept her away from the distractions of the world from body to soul, all movements, all emotions, all pursuits, only the pursuit of boxing and Taoism, the real cleansing of lead, rebirth.
Finding this feeling, Yu Qingcheng waved his hands and feet, and naturally used the Baji boxing fight. It's just that Yu Tingcheng practiced boxing this time, but he didn't have the momentum of opening and closing before, but he was like a novice who had no power to tie the chicken, and like an old lady in the park, he completed the boxing routine over and over again.
But when Yu Qingcheng was boxing, it was as if the whole person was swept up in the boundless angry waves, but he was at ease. Because she is really in the realm of nothingness, and she is naturally blended with heaven and earth. For a while, Yu Tingcheng's whole body was like a lit boiler, and a white mist rose up! The huge heat melted the hail of several meters around, which was the sweat produced by Yu Tingcheng's sports boxing, which was directly turned into steam and rose, and the heat volatilized.
This feeling is as if the whole body is breathing with the mouth and nose, and it has completely reached the point of unity between nature and man.
