Chapter 7: Reading can cure diseases

It turned out that the old man gave this page for You Fang to recite, the so-called "recitation" is very particular, first to memorize the word for word in the heart, and then recite it aloud in the heart, but do not open your mouth to speak. How can you speak out if you don't speak up? At this time, you should concentrate and recite every word carefully, just like reading aloud normally, but your lips and teeth do not move and you don't really speak out, but every word recited seems to have an echo in your mind. (Note: If you are interested, you can try it yourself.) οΌ‰

The old man also had other requirements for the tour party, to use the method of straddle walking piles, with the breathing and the strength of the whole body to run, and to recite while walking, to have strong ideas, clear words, and a sense of fluency and rhythm in reciting syllables.

Is that all there is to it? You Fang put away the page suspiciously, it doesn't hurt to try, he didn't pin his hopes on this strange old man, and he was going to go back to his hometown to find the second uncle and Mrs. Mo for help, but he was blocked by the old man again.

You Fang even claimed to thank him, and was about to explain to the old man that he had no intention of learning any feng shui, but Liu Li turned around and spoke first: "Little wanderer, your current foundation is too poor, and you are not qualified to learn my earth master technique." In this way, since you are a person who practices martial arts, you can use martial arts to cultivate the form of the gods, and when you heal the injuries of the primordial gods, and practice to the realm of 'internal and external sense', I will consider whether to accept you as an apprentice. ”

Sense of internal and external? It should be the "touch and feel" in fist and foot kung fu, the second step of superior kung fu, Liu Li's own fist and foot kung fu is also this realm. But Liu Li's intention was not to teach You Fang martial arts, but to let him learn the art of Feng Shui.

You Fang hurriedly said: "The old-timers don't have to think about it, I don't want to be a land master." The principles of Feng Shui make sense, but I never believe in those things that the gods are talking about. ”

Liu Li: "Don't be so arbitrary, you still don't know what my inheritance is, can you know the meaning of the earth master?" ”

"The earth master is the ancient name of the feng shui magician, in fact, I understand this set of things, and it is precisely because I understand that I am not interested in pretending to be a god and making ghosts, don't be unhappy with your old man, I don't mean you." You Fang did not boast, he has studied the metaphysics of feng shui since he was a child, and there is no way to pay attention to the techniques and exquisiteness of various feng shui schools, after knowing Mr. Wu, he also understands a lot of the truth, but he does not believe in the far-fetched miraculous theory.

The insider's doubts will be truly stubborn, and it is precisely because he understands everything that he understands it. Liu Li didn't get angry when he heard this, but just held the wine glass and asked with interest, "Why don't you believe it?" Let's give you an example. ”

You Fang thought for a while: "Let's just talk about those tomb robbers, who rob tombs, often ask Mr. Palm Eye, who understands feng shui." Think about those tomb owners, who asked the earth master to press the feng shui cloth hole, but it became a clue for future generations of thieves to dig the grave. If Feng Shui is really miraculous, why can't it be blessed and let the bones suffer? That's a joke! ”

Liu Li pouted: "What you said makes sense, but this truth is biased!" The silver thief committed the crime, but he blamed the girl for being beautiful, and the matter can't be said like this. …… You may have misunderstood, my inheritance is not a supernatural technique fabricated out of thin air, but a real secret method of the earth master, and the name of the earth master is not called casually. ”

Earth Master is an honorific title for Feng Shui warlocks since ancient times, but Liu Li said another meaning of these two words, it is a title and a kind of inheritance, known as the Earth Qi Grandmaster. It is said that the secret learning of the earth masters of the past dynasties can not only sense the operation of the earth qi, survey the geographical context of the mountains and rivers, but also gather the aura of heaven and earth to help cultivate the form and spirit, and even have the magic of running the earth qi spirit center, reaching all kinds of incredible magical realms.

As soon as Liu Li mentioned this, he came to his senses, dancing with chopsticks in his left hand and shaking the wine glass in his right hand, gushing endlessly. After talking for a long time, he saw You Fang staring at him without saying a word, his eyes widened and his face was strange, and he stopped and asked, "Why do you look at me like this, you don't believe it?" Actually, you should not believe it, because you are not yet started. Little wanderer, your blessing is here, work hard, and you will not be able to worship me as a teacher in the future. ”

From the time we met today, the old man has always looked normal, but at this moment, You Fang almost suspects that the old man is mentally ill, is it that he has confused his head by practicing the exercises, and has hurt the Yuan Shen like himself? What he said was too mysterious for You Fang to believe. Even if it is true to take 10,000 steps back, there is a saying in the rivers and lakes, "If you have nothing to do, you will be a thief!" You Fang couldn't believe that such a big good thing would fall on his head inexplicably, and the old man would get into it if he gave him a set, and he was also called the heir of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes in vain.

You Fang asked unhurriedly: "Senior, listening to what you said is so magical, do you have any worries about fortune, longevity, and luck?" As far as I know, there is a possibility that if you practice martial arts carelessly, you may be injured, not to mention what you said. In order to be polite, this sentence is only half said, and the implication is that Liu Li claimed to have received eight apprentices and did not get a good death, if the inheritance of the earth master is really so magical, why can't he even save his life?

Liu Li, who was still radiant before the moment, immediately darkened his face, poured himself a drink and drank several glasses of wine, and then sighed: "The ancients had one life, two luck, three feng shui, four cultivation of yin virtue and five reading, the world is not just feng shui, and there is nothing I can do about cultivation." You just said that the word 'don't believe' is quite insightful, since ancient times, many people who have walked the rivers and lakes do not believe in the supernatural, so they dare to let go of fooling people, if you really believe it, you will not dare to say it again. ”

The old man is not sure whether he is a psychotic You Fang, but he must be a lover with a surname, and after saying this, he has already been excited, and he no longer cares about You Fang, and calls the waiter to come in and order a bowl of donkey soup. After drinking the soup, he burped, waved his hand and said, "I'm not in the mood to talk to you today, find another good place tomorrow, and we'll talk again." ”

After speaking, he got up and was about to leave, but You Fang stopped and asked, "Don't say tomorrow, can you tell me how you found me today?" He still couldn't figure out how the old man had tracked him down.

Liu Li blinked his eyes and said, "This is fate, do you still want to slip away?" Whether you can slip away depends on luck, didn't you just say, one life, two luck and three feng shui. The old man turned sideways and flashed past Youfang's obstruction, walked to the door and turned back and said, "Little wanderer, you haven't explained why you want to kill the crazy fox, don't forget it tomorrow." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he went downstairs, and You Fang couldn't catch up with him - the meal hadn't been settled yet. After settling the bill and walking out of the food city, Liu Li was nowhere to be seen, You Fang stood on the side of the road and pondered for a long time, is it really a coincidence, this old man lives in Cangzhou, and he happened to see himself when he went to Lotus Pond Park to exercise in the morning?

You Fang still wants to slip away, no matter whether what the old man said is true or not, but You Fang doesn't want to be entangled by curiosity. After all, he had four lives on his back, and this old man was an eyewitness, who knows what his intentions would be? In terms of kung fu, he is not an opponent, so while his true identity is not exposed, it is better to get out of it quickly.

Although You Fang is young, he is already an old fritter, and after making up his mind, he is silent - even when he is alone, he does not show any abnormality. The first time I came to Cangzhou, like many tourists, I went to the city center after lunch, and happened to see the station of a tourist line, and bought a ticket to go to the suburbs 20 kilometers away to visit the famous Cangzhou Iron Lion.

……

You Fang has long heard of the name of the Cangzhou iron lion, this huge iron lion is more than five meters high, more than six meters long, more than three meters wide, weighs 30 tons, cast in the Northern Zhou Dynasty Guangshun three years (953 AD), has a history of 1,0057 years. When you see it with your own eyes, you Fang experience the real shock!

The iron beast on the high platform held its head high, its eyes wide open, its mouth wide open, and its limbs stretched out as if it were striding calmly. However, this majestic and majestic body is mutilated, with defects in the muzzle, tail, and abdomen, and the whole body is covered with traces of erosion over the years, and the strong limbs are also cracked.

"Reading modern Chinese history, there will be a lot of emotions that are difficult to describe, if you take a look at the Cangzhou iron lion, you will intuitively appreciate what is majestic and vicissitudes?" -- This is what Mr. Wu Pingdong said when he was chatting, Wu must have been here, and you are here today.

Unlike other tourists' slightly exaggerated exclamations and point-and-finger discussions, you Fang almost froze when he came closer to take a closer look, their old tour is an upside-down antique, since childhood, he has seen all kinds of genuine fragments of cultural relics and high-proof fakes, and he saw such a huge thousand-year-old heavy weapon with his own eyes, and the spirit of You Fang was immediately completely attracted.

This intrigue, as if there was a sense of coercion, all the noisy trance around was gone, and only You Fang and this majestic iron lion were left between heaven and earth. This is similar to a kind of "viewing" after entering the meditation, when people are obsessed and focused on appreciating spectacular scenery or wonderful things, they may have this feeling in a trance.

My father once told You Fang about a special phenomenon in antique identification, even if the imitation is made old by clever means, even if it is vivid and can even deceive some modern testing instruments, there is a "thing" that cannot be imitated. That is the bearing of the changes of the years, giving the utensils the "temperament" or "thing surname", which can be felt by immersing the mind in silver.

It's just a feeling, and it often takes years of studying this way to experience it, but it can't be described. And the forgery has no real historical experience, nor does it have the unique spiritual surname left over the years.

You Fang inadvertently entered the "contemplation realm" of concentration, and for the first time in his life, he found the kind of "feeling" that his father had described before this huge thousand-year-old artifact. Seeing the huge lotus seat on the back of the iron lion, it is natural to think of the shape of the green lion on the mount of the Buddhist legend Chinese Shu Bodhisattva.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard the sound of chanting in my mind, the sound was not loud but the words were thick, and the echo was like the rolling thunder in the distance, strange from the iron lion in front of me. Cangzhou iron lion belly cast engraved with "Diamond Sutra", most of the handwriting is difficult to read, of course it is impossible for you to get into it to see, but strange "heard" to see.

The local area also called this thing "Zhenhai roar", which stood on the seashore to town tsunami in ancient times. Today, this place is more than 100 kilometers away from the coastline, and the landform along the Bohai Sea has changed greatly due to the sediment accumulation at the mouth of the Yellow River for thousands of years.

"Since ancient times, the way of geography is also known as feng shui, and it is necessary to know that feng shui is changing, and the ins and outs of the story should also pay attention to the word 'vivid'. In the eyes of ordinary people, the earth is immutable, but it is not. The feng shui master should see the changes in the landscape since ancient times from the stand...... This is what You Fang once said to the wild fox in person, and suddenly remembered it at this moment, and subconsciously took out the compass.

The magnetic needle in the heavenly pond seemed to tremble, but You Fang did not look down, everything around him was changing in a trance, as if he was on the shore of a thousand years ago, and the chanting sound in his mind changed with his mind to the sound of the undulating tide mixed with the faint roar of the lion. Not only did this "illusion" linger in my mind, but my body was also frozen, and I could barely move my feet or speak.

You Fang was startled, and then reacted, this is a sign that the original spirit has been invaded and the mind has been taken away. His state at the moment is like being in a nightmare, his consciousness is clear but he can't "wake up", he is suppressed and can't move, and he can't command his body. I didn't expect the "spirit surname" of this iron lion to be so powerful!

This can only be blamed on You Fang's own carelessness, he inadvertently took his mind into a fixed state and viewed, in this state the Yuan Shen is most likely to feel the information of "outsiders". The so-called foreigner is a medical term, and it is also mentioned in the soul summoning technique of the rivers and lakes, and the folk superstitious sayings such as being possessed by ghosts and ghosts, evil spirits, etc., can be said to have collided with foreigners.

According to You Fang's understanding, the so-called outsiders are not demons and monsters, but information that is not easy to detect in the environment and may disturb the mind, such as the vicissitudes and coercion condensed for thousands of years on the lifeless iron lion in front of him. The iron lion does not hurt people and has no malice, so many tourists come to visit every day without any problems, but You Fang Yuanshen was injured and disturbed by the demon realm, but he concentrated into the realm, and he had to try the "heart plate technique" that he accidentally felt when he robbed the tomb the night before.

At this time, he remembered what Old Lady Mo had said: People in the rivers and lakes have all kinds of cultivation secret techniques, but the more means they master, the more taboos they have, and they can't mess around. Especially when a kung fu is about to be perfected and broken, the trouble encountered is the greatest, which the ancients called calamity.

If you have not practiced the method of cultivating your mind in concentration, and if you don't use your mind to figure out a little bit of skin in your mind, just like other ordinary tourists, your mind will not be inexplicably suppressed by the coercive aura of the iron lion at this time. The reacting You Fang immediately tried to break free, settled down to no longer work on the heart plate that seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and tried his best to eliminate all interference, but the sound of the waves and the roar of the lion in his mind not only did not disappear, but a low whimper came again.

Is it this huge and mutilated monument that is crying? Wrong! It seemed to come from the travel bag behind itβ€”the short sword sealed in the wooden box whimpered, faintly in harmony with the iron lion's roar deep in the soul. You Fang was very awake, and all kinds of abnormalities did not make him lose his mind, just like a person who was towned by nightmares, it was not easy to struggle to wake up by himself, but as long as others pushed him, it was easy to get rid of this illusion that seemed to be in the devil.

The series of processes is very complicated to describe, in fact, it is just a few seconds of stunned, in the eyes of others, this young man is just standing in front of the iron lion and is stunned. You Fang's luck is really good, at this time, there is a white and delicate hand, weakly patted him on the shoulder, and a timid, very soft and pleasant girl's voice came from his ear-

"This classmate, can you give in a moment? We wanted to take a picture. ”
