Chapter 305: Medical and Martial Arts Double Cultivation
At noon, Xiao Yao looked at the things on the table with satisfaction.
A vest made of Miaojiang wax cloth is similar to the special combat vest that he wore in his previous life.
A versatile backpack.
A replica wooden plaque that looks exactly like the token you got in the Tusi Mansion.
A replica of a black mask and a jade plaque of the same shape.
It seems that the ability to make fake seals and fake seals that I practiced when I was a secret agent didn't regress much, hey.
Once again, the real thing was compared with the fake, and then the evil method of using soy sauce to make the old one, soaked in diluted soy sauce, and then washed with water, completely indistinguishable from the real thing.
Send these back to the Tusi Palace, so as not to startle the snake and add unnecessary trouble.
Thinking about this, Xiao Yao quietly went to the room to burn the extra things, threw the carving knife and the remaining jade scraps into the river in the city, and asked the guy to deliver lunch before waking up the eldest lady to have lunch together.
The eldest lady was a little shy about her snooze behavior, but in the face of a sumptuous lunch, she still showed a considerable appetite.
The two of them chatted casually for a while, and then decided to take a good stroll in the city, it is said that this Xizhou is already one of the largest cities in the Miao Xinjiang region, because it is close to the mainland of the Han people, so the business is extremely prosperous, and there is an endless stream of guests.
The eldest lady was very curious about all kinds of Miao costumes, and the two of them went shopping, and even bought a lot of things and returned to the station.
At this moment, Xiao Yao is convinced that shopping is a woman's nature, no matter ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, no matter whether you are sick or healthy, whether you wear it or not
Looking at a new set of Miao clothes on the table, Xiao Yao was actually very satisfied. I am very glad that I stopped the eldest lady from only buying a set for one person, otherwise the miracle doctor would not find it, and he would have become a porter.
The Miao clothes here are much better than those in that village, both in terms of material and workmanship. And men's Miao clothes, whether going out or walking at night, are very close and flexible.
And the eldest lady was also trying all kinds of silver jewelry she had just bought in the house, and she was very busy, not at all like in the Zhao family, just like a little girl, very curious about everything, very happy.
Every time the eldest lady changed her outfit, she ran to Xiao Yao to show off. Watching the eldest lady change one by one from time to time, Xiao Yao couldn't help but be a little fascinated, the eldest lady wearing a women's Miao dress was indeed as beautiful as a fairy.
At night, Xiao Yao took the imitation of the fake and quietly sneaked into the Tusi Mansion again.
At this time, there was no one in the small building, and after putting things away, Xiao Yao began to explore around in other parts of the palace, and soon found the study of the palace.
The study is not difficult to find, it is next to the main hall of the palace, but at this moment the king of Tusi is not inside, but there are two fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys studying in it, I think it should be the son of the palace.
The reason why Xiao Yao is looking for a study room is to see if he can find some books he wants, his understanding of Miao Jiang is very limited, and the book descriptions in the mainland are also unknown, so the books in this Tusi Mansion must be much more detailed.
Hiding in the dark and waiting for a while, the two princes of the palace have probably completed today's homework.
After they left, Xiao Yao avoided the guards and quietly entered the study.
Soon I found several rows of bookshelves on one side of the study, but more than half of the books turned out to be classics of various subsets of scriptures and histories of the Han people in the mainland, and only the innermost one found some books about Miao Jiang and Peng's Tusi. But they are also books that describe the history and legends of Miaojiang.
Probably no one turned it for a long time, and a lot of dust fell. At the bottom of these books, Xiao Yao finally found the related book he wanted, "Witch Book".
After looking at it a few times, I was slightly happy in my heart, it was the basic book that recorded the witch doctors of Miaojiang, and it was also the basis of various strange arts in Miaojiang such as witch Gu techniques. But since the magic of witchcraft is all secret, the only one that is widely circulated outside is this witch book.
There were ten witch books in total, which were packed in a set of bookboxes, and at the bottom of the entire bookshelf, there were about seven or eight sets piled up, Xiao Yao picked the best one to preserve, stuffed it into his arms, and quietly left the palace.
Returning to the inn with this set of witch books, Xiao Yao immediately opened it and looked at it.
The first book in it recounts the history of Miao Jiang, from the great god of Chiyou, to Jiuli, to Sanmiao, and finally to the current four major toasts, black, white and red flowers and four seedlings, and the Miao King and the Witch God Temple. It's pretty much the same as what Wei Decai said.
The remaining nine books are all about the use of some ores, herbs, and natural insects, which is basically a compendium of materia medica.
There is a little bit of talk about witchcraft, but it's very little.
Xiao Yao couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
After reading it roughly, I found that Miao Jiang's medical skills are unique, which are very different from the medical skills I am familiar with, but they are generally low-theoretic prescriptions, and they have not formed a complex system like Han Chinese medicine.
But it's also rewarding. For all kinds of poisonous herbs in this Miaojiang area, the insects have a basic understanding. Before Wei Decai arrived, he could have read it well.
Ever since the cultivation of the Wandering Journey broke through the fourth layer, every time he exercised, there was a stream of heat flowing along the meridians in his body, and he only needed to run for one week at a time, and he would feel refreshed, even better than the effect of sleeping and resting. I don't feel tired and sleepy, but now I have more time to study.
The eldest lady slept until noon before getting up, and Xiao Yao had already read the first two books of the witch book twice, and practiced the poisonous dragon palm method again.
It turns out that the core of this poisonous dragon palm method is to use the true qi in the body, and the poisonous Gu is also the poison of the poisonous dragon, as the true qi is sent out of the palm, the higher the level of the poisonous Gu, the better the effect, but at the same time, the more difficult it is to cultivate.
Generally, Gu worms that already have a poisonous pattern are used to start cultivating, and cultivators must control the toxins in their bodies, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise they will be poisoned.
Therefore, generally use your own Gu worms, as your own Gu worms continue to grow, the toxicity of the toxin continues to increase, the true qi in the body continues to increase, and the control of the true qi operation in the palm technique continues to become proficient, and the power of this palm technique will continue to increase.
Xiao Yao thought about it, at this moment, his true qi is there, and there is no problem with running, but where does the toxins in his body come from?
Due to the anti-poison physique, the toxins are naturally dissolved in his own body, and he can't store them at all, and he doesn't have Gu worms, so he tried the special imprint on the palm of his left hand several times, but it was useless except for the microscope function that he was becoming more and more familiar with.
It seems that in order to practice the core meaning of this poisonous dragon palm method, we must think of other methods.
Wei Decai still didn't appear, Xiao Yao was not in a hurry, so he accompanied the eldest lady and began to taste all kinds of snacks in Xizhou City one by one.
The two of them had a full meal outside, and it was already evening when they returned to the inn.
Xiao Yao gave up the idea of going to the Tusi Mansion again. If you go more, you will definitely show your feet, and it is most suitable for you to continue to read the witch book at the inn these days.
After another night of reading, Xiao Yao faintly felt as if he remembered something, and calmed down to think, compared with the medicine records of the Han people, the drug records in this witch book are like a compendium of materia medica, but there is still a lack of theories about the operation of the body's meridians, qi and blood, as well as acupuncture, drug refining, purification and other pill medicine content.
So why don't you learn from this method?
Using the True Qi operation method of the Poison Dragon Palm Method, there is no need to hit a special toxin, only a special operation of True Qi is required, and it may have a similar effect.
Just like acupuncture, changing the flow of people's meridians, qi and blood, isn't this the life and death charm of Tianshan Tong in the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon?
As long as the true qi you play can achieve the same effect, isn't it better to be non-toxic than poisonous, so why care about the Gu poison itself?
The person who invented the poisonous dragon palm method is really a genius, and if he figured this out, wouldn't he go further!
When I think of this, my heart is happy.
In the next two days, Xiao Yao went to the Tusi Mansion again. I found the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, the Yellow Emperor's Eighty-one Difficult Scriptures, the Typhoid Treatise and the Shennong's Materia Medica, the four major classics of traditional Chinese medicine, took them back and verified them one by one, and even bought a set of good gold needles and bronze people, and tested them one by one according to the spiritual chapter of the Yellow Emperor's Neijing.
Combined with his own way of running the true qi of the free travel, Xiao Yao felt that his understanding of his own martial arts and medicine had deepened.
Martial arts and medicine are both adjustments and applications of the body, while medicine focuses on the natural state of the body, while martial arts focuses on the extreme state of the body.
The basic theories of the two on the operation of qi and blood are very similar, but their own leisurely travel is the internal strength of the heart, it is more like a health method, and after corresponding to medicine, I found that my physique has been greatly improved compared with ordinary people, and every time I run the true qi, I have a deeper understanding of my own meridian acupoints, and my own leisurely tour is about to break through the fifth layer.
On the fifth day, someone suddenly found Xiao Yao, but it was not Brother Wei, but a son of the Wei family who held Brother Wei's token, a younger brother of Brother Wei's clan, and he had not yet been a teacher.
After this person found Xiao Yao, he took back the bamboo tube that Wei Weide had given to Xiao Yao, and then took out a letter and handed it to Xiao Yao.
In the letter, Wei Decai simply told Xiao Yao the reason why he could not come to Xizhou. It turned out that something happened in the clan, and he was sent out by the clan elder to find something.
Seeing this, Xiao Yao couldn't help but think of the nine-patterned yin silkworm that King Tusi had mentioned that night, could it be that Brother Wei was looking for this thing? That's why he asked his brother Wei San to come over and send some things to him.
A map, and a brief description of the towns, cottages along the way.
A wooden plaque about the witch and ghost convention, one side is engraved with a grimace, and the other side is engraved with a Wei character.
It must be the exclusive token of the Wei family, and then mentioned in his heart that if he needs a guide, he can let Wei San guide him.
Putting away Wei Decai's letter, Xiao Yao was moved in his heart, such a detailed introduction must have taken a lot of thought into Brother Wei, but he had already stolen a detailed map of Miao Jiang from the Tusi Palace, and recorded the introduction book "Miao Jiang Tongzhi" of each major village.
However, Wei Decai's map for himself has a lot of introductions about the different forces in Miao Jiang, which is not in this book.
Wei Decai drew a road on the map to the Guò Witch Coat's sphere of influence, which was the most convenient and far away from the area where the two factions were fighting, and it was much safer.
Now that he has a detailed map, and the eldest lady is not in good health, he will be much slower along the way, so it is not good to trouble Wei San.
Xiao Yao took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and wrote a letter to Wei Decai, who Wei San brought back and handed it over.
