Mo Da casually flipped through the book full of annotations, and suddenly saw a picture sandwiched in the book. In the center of the picture is a meditating figure with squinting eyes and folded hands.

The painting is so vivid that Murda can feel that the person in the painting is smiling at him. The entire painting is in color. Written underneath the painting are four words: Settle down.

After turning two pages, I found a portrait, still in the same posture of the person, but the expression of the person on the picture changed to a smile, and the eyes were a little closed.

Murda flipped through the entire book and found more than 1,000 drawings, each with a slightly different expression on the person's face, with the same four words underneath every twelve.

Murda thinks it's funny, could it be a comic book? He tried to stack them up, twisting them and flipping through them.

Sure enough, when I flipped it quickly, it had the effect of animation, and the people on the painting moved.

I saw that this person's expression gradually became calm, and his eyes slowly closed. At first, the man was still in full color, but then slowly changed from head to toe to black and white, leaving only the heart and eyebrows in color.

As the picture changes, the colored parts change again. They become shoulders, arms, hands, chest, dantian, legs, and feet. After the worst, it changed back to the heart and eyebrows.

Moda thought it was very interesting, but he didn't understand what these paintings were trying to tell him, could it be some kind of martial arts cheats, internal strength and mental methods, etc.? Could it be that the Qin Dynasty really had these things?

On second thought, this is not scientific. Do you really think you're in the martial arts world?!

"Mo Da, you are really the first person in this generation of Lone Bamboo disciples to break through this method of painting memories!"

A loud voice came in the doorway.

Murda was stunned and hurriedly turned around, it turned out that the master was standing at the door with a bamboo lantern, with a relieved smile on his face.

"Master!"

Murda was busy trying to prop himself up.

"Okay, you're hurt, you don't have to be formal."

"How did you get there? I didn't notice you coming. ”

"Child, I came to see your injury, and I didn't want to see that you were reading this Wei Yizi with concentration, so I didn't bother you."

Mo Da saw that the master was carrying a bamboo basket, which was full of bottles and jars, presumably as medicine for leg injuries.

"Murda, the way you looked at these paintings just now is really peculiar, this method is exactly the way to see through the memories of paintings! You've just broken through this method for the first time, what a genius! ”

Master looked excited as he spoke.

"Master, this is the way I watch animation, as long as I turn it quickly, the dead painting will become a living painting. But what do these paintings mean? ”

Master twisted his beard and spoke eloquently

"This is one of the hundred schools of pre-Qin, the Zhijia, the method of memory created. Many of the sages of the pre-Qin dynasty learned this method. Confucian Confucius, Taoist Zhuangzi, Legalist Han Feizi, Soldier Sun Tzu, and Li Si, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, all painted the method of memory. “

Murda was puzzled and asked about the purpose of this painting, and the master continued:

"Those who know this method can become familiar with words that others cannot remember for ten years in an hour. It is precisely because these sages have mastered this method that they are well-read, well-known, and the most successful of the family. ”

Is there really such a way?! Murda was excited to hear this. With this method, our students who go abroad are still afraid of words? 70,000 words and not in an instant? The various accounting algorithms are not yet clear at a glance? Aren't those ancient texts a matter of minutes? No wonder Master Confucius can become saints and sages, it turns out that I remember so many feelings by painting memories! If I could have learned it a few years earlier, I wouldn't be the youngest academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences now?

The Chinese ancestors are really strong, and the Ebbinghaus memory curve is completely dull before the painting recalls. Thinking of this, Moda really wanted to master this treasure method quickly.

"It's just that there aren't many people who can use this method of painting memories now. In order to master the secret art of painting and memories, Qin Xiang Li Si has captured all the people who know the family and those who master the memory of painting, and Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism when he buried them at the foot of Lishan Mountain. Oh, that's a pity. ”

"Then Master, haven't you been able to understand it either?"

"Fortunately, I am a lonely bamboo gate person who is far away from the court, and I am teaching the method of painting and remembering in this Yangshan Mountain. Of course, only those who have the door of fate can understand the Dharma. Now only for the teacher and your uncle to learn to draw memories. At that time, the two of us put more than 1,000 paintings on the wall of the cave, and a bamboo basket hung on the top of the cave, and we sat in the basket and kept spinning to see how the people in the paintings moved. I didn't expect that the animation method you used could easily break this method, which is really an eye-opener for the teacher! We were dizzy back then! ”

Moda couldn't help but smile bitterly, it's strange that Master and Uncle don't get dizzy, 24 paintings per second can only be seen to see a coherent animation, it's strange that you don't get dizzy at such an age. It's no wonder that only the master and uncle of the entire Guzhu clan have penetrated it, and others are estimated to have fainted to death. The two of them really have astronaut skills.

"Now it's okay, you don't have to hang in the air to understand this method. Moda, you have made a contribution to the people of Guzhumen! ”

"But Master, I can see the image of this activity, but how can I apply it?"

"Do you see the words drawn? By following the instructions, you can turn the words you see into pictures, which is called 'drawing'. Then let your mind continue to move through the various parts of your body in the order shown in the diagram, and you can allow yourself to meditate. At this time, if you reflect the 'painting' you have just seen in your mind, you can continuously imprint the words in your memory, which is called 'memory'. However, it takes about five years for ordinary people to practice, and your uncle and I have practiced for three years. ”

"Isn't there anyone among the senior brothers who has learned this method?"

"Hey!" Master sighed

"There are not many people who know this way. This method takes a lot of time to learn, and most of these disciples are eager to learn it, so few of them can practice it diligently. Everyone has their own preferences and purposes when they go to Shouyang Mountain. There are those who want to help the people quickly, those who want to restore the country as soon as possible, and those who want to change the dynasty as soon as possible, and everyone does not want to prove their worth as soon as possible. Hey, I want to be fast...... Even your uncle ...... Ay...... Don't mention it. ”

Speaking of this, the master seemed to be preoccupied. Seeing that the master was depressed, Moda changed the subject

"Master, I heard Mo Di tell me about the previous incident, and you and everyone have bothered to save me. It is my honor that you can take me as an apprentice. ”

"Murda, save you for the teacher and take you as an apprentice. Because you are one of the variables in the world. The so-called fixed numbers and so-called eternities in this world are actually temporary 'illusions', which will eventually be transformed by variable people or variable things. There are four stages of 'becoming, dwelling, deteriorating, and emptiness', can you understand what they mean? ”

Does it mean that things will rise, stabilize, decline, and die? Things are constantly changing. ”

"Yes, good understanding. What seems to be constant, and what is unchangeable is the truth, are all people who wait for variables. The average person can be a variable in one thing. And you are a person who is variable for life, and many constant things in the world will change because of you. How can you have a great deal to do, the previous calamity is that the heavens will accept you as a variable. Although the teacher does not know what your variables are, it is easy to calculate that your variables will benefit the people of the world. Life is a person who lives in the world, even if I give up my lonely bamboo and the life of the whole clan, I will save you. ”

Murda heard it in a fog, why is he still a variable person whose fate is the common people? Hearing Master say this, I was very confused. Mr. Mingyang saw that Mo Da knew that he had said a little too much, and he was afraid that Mo Da was too worried, so he explained

"However, you have suffered dozens of great tribulations, and the disasters in this life have passed, and you will die. Don't talk about this, the secretary who taught you the painting memory for the teacher today needs to practice to master. Come, practice with the teacher. ”

After that, Mr. Mingyang and Mo Da practiced this method of painting memories.

Settle - turn to paint - meditate - draw memories.

Repeatedly.

Repeatedly.

Half an hour later, Moda was able to recite Wei Yizi upside down!

Murda was overjoyed and hurriedly begged the master to bring him another scripture book to practice.

"Murda, remember. It's just a way to memorize, it's all about it. Just remember that if you don't want to, you won't become your own. Also, you have to start from scratch from now on. Tomorrow I will go to the hills to learn how to read and write. ”

Master was secretly happy to see that Moda was so smart. It's just that he knows the truth of the castle in the sky, so he pressed Moda's interest and taught him not to be impatient.

"Moda, although you are not young, you still have to lay a solid foundation. My lonely bamboo sect has three levels of cultivation: 'soil cultivation', 'seed refining', and 'ginseng'. One is the soil for cultivation, that is, the soil for all cultivation, which is the foundation. You can only refine the seeds after you have completed the cultivation. ”

"Then what is seed refining? Master. ”

"I've just talked about it, and I'll talk about it after I finish repairing it. You go to sleep first. Tomorrow I will let Mo Di Mo Heng take you to the soil hills. With that, the master drifted away.

Mo Da looked at the door and was distracted, the master said so many words just now, and practiced painting and memorizing, so much information his brain really couldn't process at once.

Forget it, if you want to start everything, go to bed first. Lao Tzu has experienced the college entrance examination, science, mathematics, English, and Chinese, and a lot of messy things Lao Tzu has survived, and he still cares if he can't see the sun tomorrow?

Slept. I hope you don't dream and sleep until dawn.
