Chapter 33: The Golden Finger of the Heavenly World
After drinking fruit tea, the two sisters began to linger at various snack stalls again, and the two of them had nothing to eat at each stall, but they only ate one or two bites of everything, otherwise they really wouldn't have such a big belly. It was already late when www.biquge.info returned home, Han's mother and Han's father had already gone home and had already gone to bed, Han Nuo threw a bag of snacks into the porcelain jar, and a stack of written calligraphy on the table was also thrown in. It is written on it the song of the Great Dao of the Whole Heart Dharma and the Spiritual Method, I don't know which lucky person can get it.
………………
In the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, the political situation was turbulent and wars broke out, and the poor people living under the oppression of the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty were struggling to make a living. On the banks of the Hanshui River, a five- or six-year-old boy lives with his father. Because the Yuan soldiers always went to the village to plunder the people's food, many people did not dare to farm anymore and looked for other livelihoods. In order to support his son, the child's father built a small boat by himself to pick up and drop off guests on both sides of the Han River and earn a little money for living expenses.
The child touched his belly and was so hungry! Because no one crossed the river in the past two days, the father could not earn money to buy food, and the child could only eat a small piece of dry biscuits every day, which his father saved for him.
"Goddess of Hanshui, please bless your father to receive business." The child prays quietly. The goddess of Hanshui is a legend on the banks of the Hanshui River, and it is said that she is a very beautiful goddess who can bless the people on both sides of the Hanshui River.
"Also, I'm hungry, can you give me something to eat from my father?"
The words fell, and a pile of things fell from the sky in front of the child. The child blinked, suddenly jumped up and shouted: "Daddy, come quickly, the goddess of Hanshui has appeared." ”
That night, for several days in a row, the child and his father were able to eat, albeit only twice a day. The child's father warned the child not to tell anyone else about the apparition of the goddess of Hanshui, and although the child was puzzled, he listened to his father's words. The father saw a stack of paper full of words in the pile of food, gathered it away, and handed it to his son. His father was just an ordinary boatman on the Han River, but the wife he married was a girl from a down-and-out scholarly family, who knew how to read and write, and taught his son a lot of words and books before he died. The boatman familiarized his son with the words on the paper, so that he would not forget it because he had not seen it for a long time.
The child was very obedient, and when he had no time, he took out the paper and recalled the words his mother had taught him according to the words on it. I saw a poem written on the first page of paper: The first cultivation of the avenue leads to the nine orifices, and the nine orifices were originally in the tail Lu acupoint. Rush from the bottom of the feet of the spring, and the spring rushes through to the knee. The knee slowly reached the tail, and the mud pill was on top of the whirlwind. The Secret Whisperer has passed on the original understanding, and there is no trace of the time that comes and goes. Over the years, the dust and dirt have been polished, and the whole body is bright and bright. What is the basis for cultivating the true living memory, the heart is dead and the group is not alive today. The essence is full of gongji, and the spiritual light shines all over the Shenjing. The golden lock passes through the magpie bridge, and the heavy building descends to the palace room.
̄□ ̄The child's eyes are full of question marks. What does shrimp mean? This doesn't look like a poem! With questions, the child looked at the second page, only to see that it read: Quanzhen Avenue Song, Quanzhen teaches the introductory internal gong and practice the heart method: beginners need to pass the true qi in the body through the nine orifices, the nine orifices were originally in the tail acupoint, located between the end of the coccyx and the ****, through the meridian of the Du Mai, the Du Mai of the meridian acupoint, don't go to the Ren Mai. If it hits, it hinders the weather machine of the week, and the dantian gas machine does not rise. The True Qi goes first at the Yongquan acupoint: in the first three points of the palm of the foot, a depression appears when the toes are flexed. Sutra genus: foot less yin and kidney meridians. After hitting, it hurts the dantian qi, and the qi cannot rise, breaking the light power......
The child didn't understand what the internal strength of the mind was, but thought it was fun and practiced according to the above steps. Soon the child felt warm and comfortable, and all the fatigue and discomfort disappeared. The child squinted his eyes and slept very comfortably.
Coveting this kind of comfort, the child practiced every day according to what was written on the paper, and slowly, he felt that his strength had become greater, and he could help his father a lot. He thought that this was all the effect of cultivating the so-called internal strength on paper, so he cultivated the Quanzhen internal strength more diligently. The child is simple-minded, selfless and fearless, his cultivation is very focused, and the cultivation effect is stronger than Guo Jing's, but in a year, the child has the feeling that a little mouse is drilling around in his body, and he doesn't know that he is already a little master, and his internal strength can be ranked at the level of a third-rate master in the martial arts.
Three years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the child is nine years old, because he has cultivated internal strength, his breathing is long, and he can dive in the water for a long time, so he can always catch the big fish in the river to improve his life, and occasionally he can also catch the gold, silver and jewelry dropped by pedestrians crossing the river at the bottom of the river, which is used to buy food, not only to keep his family full, but also to help his uncle's family and relatives of the same clan. In the past three years, the children's life can be described as the easiest and happiest since they were born, and he and his father are very grateful to the "Goddess of Han Water" who gave them internal strength.
On this day, the child was waiting for the guests by the river with his father, and a bearded man reported a girl with picturesque eyebrows and old clothes running from a distance, three feet away from the water damage, the big man jumped up, and the next moment, the big man fell on the boat.
"The boatman hurried to get out of the boat."
For the last jump of the big man, the two fathers and sons were not the least surprised by the ordinary people when they saw the light gong, you must know that the child can jump higher and farther than the big man after cultivating internal strength.
The boy's father, the boatman, hurriedly sailed, for he had seen a large ship approaching in the distance, with four monks standing in the bow and seven or eight Mongolian military attachés. The boatman knew how murderous and unreasonable these Mongolian military attachés were, and he definitely didn't believe that his father and son had nothing to do with the Han, and that after killing the Han, he would definitely kill his father and son. So, without waiting for the big man to urge again, he picked up the oars and rowed. In the past three years, the boatman has practiced with his son, although the effect is not great, but he has also cultivated a little internal force, and his strength is twice as great as the original one, plus the help of the big man, this desperate rowing, the boat jumps forward like an arrow, faster than the big ship of the Mongols. However, there were many people supporting the boat in the Mongolian big boat, and under the urging of the military attaché, they worked hard together, but they were not pulled away by the small boat, and gradually there was a tendency to approach.
I only heard one of the monks shouting: "Hurry up and stop the boat, hand over the child obediently, and the Buddha will spare your life, otherwise it will be ruthless." ”
The voice came from the waves, and it was clear to the ears, and the internal strength of the caller was not weak, and everyone on the boat could hear it clearly, and the little girl who was placed on the deck by the big man suddenly had a face as white as paper. Dahan hurriedly comforted the little girl: "Little Miss, even if I fight for this life, I won't hand you over." ”
The little girl held back her tears and thanked Dahan: "Thank you, Brother Chang." I believe you. ”
Seeing that the little girl was as big as him, the little girl's face was very pitiful, and he stepped forward to take the little girl's hand: "Don't worry, my father has been holding boats in Hanshui all the year round, and he is familiar with the waterways here, and he will definitely be able to escape with us." ”
The little girl was comforted by the children of the same age, and a sense of affection for the children rose in her heart.
When the Mongols saw that the boat did not stop, one of them ordered: "Shoot the arrows." ”
The boat did not stop, and the military attachés and monks bent their bows and arrows and shot at the boat. But I heard the feather arrows breaking through the air and whining. These arrows were all aimed at the big man and the boatman who was holding the boat. Seeing the arrows shooting at his father, the boy picked up the small wooden stool on the boat and snatched it in front of him in two steps. He looked intently at the feather arrow, and found that the speed of the feather arrow seemed to slow down, and in his eyes it was extremely slow, and he lightly blocked it with a small stool, and the feather arrow was turned aside by him.
Dahan Yuan was worried when he saw the feather arrow shooting at the boatman, who knew that the boatman's son actually blocked the feather arrow, and his skill did not look low. I'm really clumsy, this pair of boat father and son must be hermit masters, right?
As soon as the big man breathed a sigh of relief, a wave of arrows rained down again. The big man struggled to dial, causing internal injuries, his movements paused slightly, he was hit by arrows one after another on his shoulder and back, and the wooden oar in one hand was uncertain, falling into the middle of the river, and the speed of the boat slowed down. The big boat quickly caught up, and seven or eight Mongolian military attachés and monks jumped onto the boat. The bearded man was unyielding, punching and kicking, struggling to resist. One of the Mongol military attachés raised his sword to kill the boatman, and although the child was afraid, in order to protect his father, he endured his fear and faced the facial features, relying on his small size and flexibility, and restrained the military attaché so that he could not kill his father.
During the fight, he suddenly heard a loud shout: "Tartar stop, Hugh has to kill and hurt people!" ”
A small boat was rowed quickly in the middle of the river, and when it was about to approach, a man jumped up from the boat with his big sleeves fluttering and pounced on the boat from the air. Two Mongol military attachés whizzed two arrows and fired at him. The sleeves of the man's robe waved, two feather arrows flew far away, as soon as his feet stepped on the board, his left palm swung out, and when he boarded, two monks fell out of the Zhangxu, plopped, plopped twice, and fell into the river.
When the child saw that the person who came was an old Taoist priest with white eyebrows and beard, although he was dressed shabby and sloppy, he was kind and kind, so that he became close at first sight.
The leading military attache shouted: "What are you doing, old Dao? ”
The man scolded, "Dog Tartar! He has come again to commit evil and harm good people, so get out of here! ”
The military attache said, "Do you know who this man is?" That is the remnant of the Yuanzhou Demon Sect's anti-thieves, the criminal who wants to be arrested all over the world! ”
The Taoist priest hesitated at first when he heard this, but seeing that there were two children and an ordinary boatman in this boat, and the remnants of the Yuanzhou Demon Sect thieves that Yuan Bing said were just a little girl, he felt pity and decided to take care of this idle matter.
The child listened to the questions and answers between the Mongolian officers and soldiers and the old Taoist priest, and knew that the girl's original identity was extraordinary, and she was the daughter of the king of Zhou. Although the child has never left Hanshui, he has also heard the name of King Zhou, which is said to be the leader of the rebel army who rebelled against the Mongol Tatars for the sake of the common people of the world. The child felt that since King Zhou was for the good of the people, he was a good person, and his daughter was also a good person.
On this side, the Taoist priest had already made a decision, only to see the sleeves of his robe waving, and shouted: "The life of the old Taoist, kill the Tartars!" "The military attachés and monks felt that the wind was blowing, and everyone was breathless, and they couldn't breathe for a long time. As soon as the sleeves of the old Taoist robe stopped, everyone's faces turned pale, and they exclaimed in unison, rushed back to the boat, rescued the monk who fell into the water, and rowed away.
The child looked at the old man in a daze, fed him medicine, comforted the little girl, and brought a little brother with a pale face from another boat. He was pulled aside by his father, his father's mind was very understandable, these people were all from the rivers and lakes, and they were ordinary people, so it was better to stay aside honestly and not provoke the attention of those people.
However, after comforting his apprentice, Lao Dao walked up to the two fathers and sons, and asked kindly, "Child, what is your name?" ”
The child already had a sense of admiration and affection for this old Taoist priest, and when he heard his question, he replied obediently: "My name is Zhou Jingran. 'The white gulls fly in the dissolving and rippling water, and the green and clean spring is deep and good for dyeing clothes. People from the south to the north grow old, and the sunset sends the fishing boat back. I was born next to the Han River, and my mother gave me this name. ”
"Good name." Lao Dao praised, I didn't expect the fisherman children on the Han River to have such a literary name. However, thinking of the child's ability to block arrows just now, maybe this boat family is not an ordinary person.
"Kid, who did you learn your martial arts from?" Lao Dao asked.
The child blinked blankly with big eyes, although he practiced according to the internal strength on the paper, he did not know that internal strength was one of the martial arts, but the most important one.
Lao Dao was curious: "You don't even know martial arts?" But I see that you are agile and rhythmic in your breathing, which is a manifestation of the cultivation of the authentic Taoist mind. ”
The child tilted his head: "Internal strength? Is this it? ”
As he spoke, he recited the "Great Avenue Song": "The first cultivation of the Great Avenue leads to the nine orifices, and the nine orifices are originally in the tail Lu acupoint. Rush from the bottom of the feet of the spring, and the spring rushes through to the knee. The knee slowly passed to the tail, and the mud pill was swirling sharply on the top ......"
The old Taoist listened to it again and again, and said: "This is the authentic internal strength of Taoism, child, where did you learn it?" ”
Zhou Jingran looked at his father: Do you want to tell me about the goddess of Hanshui?
Father Zhou nodded, and Zhou Jingran told Lao Dao about the sudden drop of food and internal strength from the heavens. Lao Dao is not as knowledgeable as ordinary people, he thought that a certain master with light skills and good skills saw that this child had a good character and bones, and secretly gave it to the heart method, so that he could pass on the heart method. As for why the child is not accepted as an apprentice, perhaps the master has other considerations.
Zhou Jingran finished talking about what happened, and was afraid that Lao Dao would not believe it, so he turned out his well-collected manuscript from the hull and held it in front of Lao Dao. When Lao Dao saw the words "Quanzhen Internal Strength Mental Method" written on it, even if his heart had been dull for many years, he didn't get excited. Now many people in this world don't know about the Quanzhen School, but how can the old Taoist priest who has lived for more than a hundred years not know the Quanzhen School? Among the five uniques, the middle supernatural power and the middle urchin, the seven sons of Quanzhen, the old Taoist priest is like thunder.
