Chapter 23: The meridians burst and he vomited blood and died
Li Wu couldn't help frowning, for the first time in his life, he knew what it meant to have a splitting headache.
The brain is the most important part of the central nervous system, and pain from the brain is not something that ordinary people can bear.
After all, Li Wu is not a steel and iron bone, and his tolerance for pain also has a certain limit.
If it weren't for the presence of the Holy Child, he estimated that he would definitely hold his head and howl a few times.
But the subconscious mind told him that pain is pain, and yelling didn't help him alleviate any pain.
Since it hurts to bear it silently, and it hurts to shout, it is better to choose to bear it silently, at least you can maintain a trace of the dignity of the master in front of the Holy Child.
After stabilizing his mind, Li Wu gathered his true qi and continued to attack this meridian blocking point that was as thin as a gossamer.
With each impact, Li Wu frowned, and the muscles on his face twitched a few times.
At this time, because of the severe pain he endured, not only the muscles on his face were constantly twitching, but he was already sweating profusely, and the clothes on his body had already been soaked with sweat, even the spirit beast fur on the couch became wet, and the floor under the couch was a bright and swaying water trace.
It was only at this time that the Holy Infant began to really worry about Li Wu, and said to Li Wu with some guilt: "Master, otherwise...... Otherwise, let's stop here today, anyway, this is a small blocking point, and it won't have much impact on your cultivation!"
But Li Wu didn't stop, and he didn't even open his eyes.
He kept telling himself in his heart that he must never give up, never give up!
This is not a question of whether or not it will affect his cultivation, but it is related to his faith.
If he can't persevere today, it is likely that he will not have the courage to carry out the pulse in the future.
Because he didn't dare to hit hard, he could only use the minimum force to repeatedly impact one by one, and this blocking point took Li Wu a lot of time, from more than half of the time to more than half of the ugly time, it took more than an hour, that is, more than 3,000 breaths.
The more time passed, the greater the pain brought to Li Wu when he was in the pulse, almost reaching the level of geometric growth.
At this time, he truly realized the pain of the earth-fire purgatory-like that the Holy Child said.
This feeling is a bit like the ghost in hell throwing a person's soul into the earth fire and calcining, no matter how painful the person is, how the ghost cries wolf, the ghost will not let him die, and if he dies, he has to be brought back to life, and then burned again.
This is simply inhuman torture, worse than life and death.
No wonder there are so many people in the world who can see death as home, but they cannot survive the torture of the enemy.
It is no wonder that some people who are unbearable to suffer from illness would rather end their lives on their own than live in the world.
It seems that the torture caused by this pain is really not something that ordinary people can bear.
If there was a choice, Li Wu would rather be cut by someone than endure this inhuman torture.
But he didn't have a choice, and if he gave up now, the future would be even more painful, so he had to stick to it.
As time went on, the pain made Li Wu's brain nerves gradually numb, and his mind became a little unclear.
He was just mechanically repeating the mantra of the heart method in "Washing the Pulp and Clearing the Pulse", constantly hitting this meridian blockage point that was as thin as a gossamer with his true qi.
Just when the impact had progressed to about three thousand six hundred times, Li Wu suddenly felt a trace of true qi flow as thin as a gossamer pass through the meridian blocking point that he was impacting, and then more air currents gushed out......
As a result, all the pain in my brain disappeared in an instant.
Li Wu once again felt the most incisive sense of pleasure, that is, the feeling of flying up to the clouds and fluttering like a fairy.
Li Wu knew that he had opened up the most fragile and difficult blocking point in his body.
Although this blocking point is not the most dangerous, and even if it fails, it will not immediately put his life in danger, but it is definitely the most torturous, not only overdrawing a lot of his physical strength, but also causing a large amount of water loss in his body, almost exhausting him.
Seeing Li Wu open his eyes, the Holy Infant asked with concern, "Master, how are you feeling now?"
Li Wu smiled with difficulty: "I...... One of the most difficult blocking points in the body has been opened. ”
The Holy Child asked, "Master, how many blocking points have you found?"
Li Wudao: "According to my previous exploration, there are a total of seven meridian blocking points in my body, and now four have been opened, and there should be three more." ”
The Holy Child said distressedly: "Master, can you still hold on?"
Li Wu shook his head slightly: "I don't know, I feel weak now, and I feel like I'm about to drown!"
The Holy Child just sighed and said nothing more.
Although the Holy Child himself could not cultivate, he knew that when the monk forcibly opened the blocked meridians in his body, it was best to have one or two high-level monks around him to protect the Dharma, and when the person who passed the pulse was weak or the Yuan Force was insufficient, the Dharma protector could use his own cultivation to enter the body of the person who passed the pulse, so as to ensure that the person who passed the pulse had enough Yuan power to carry on the channel.
But Li Wu didn't have any external support, so he could only rely on his own perseverance to complete the pulse alone, which was indeed a bit difficult for Li Wu.
At that moment, Li Wu drank two large bowls of water to replenish the water lost in his body.
After resting for a while, Li Wu took off his shirt and sat shirtless on the stone couch to start meditating again.
In order to recover some of his vitality as much as possible, he practiced breathing for a while, absorbing the faint aura between heaven and earth as much as possible, and waited until the vitality in his body recovered some, and then began to attack the remaining three meridian blocking points one by one.
Although breaking through the first four blocking points made Li Wu's vitality greatly damaged, it also allowed him to accumulate a lot of experience.
With the experience accumulated before, he was able to control the force of each impact very well at this time.
About an hour later, he opened two more meridian blocks in his body, including a very dangerous one.
Six blocking points have been opened successively, and now there is only the last blocking point left in Li Wu's body, and victory is in sight.
If the last blocking point can also be successfully opened, then all the pain he has suffered today will be worth it.
The location of the last block point is more specific, the heart meridian located in the heart area.
The heart meridian, the full name of the hand Shaoyin heart meridian, because it starts from the heart and belongs to the heart system.
The last meridian block point in Li Wu's body is located exactly at the beginning of the Heart Sutra.
The heart is the engine of human blood circulation and an important human organ in the human body comparable to the brain.
After brain death, the heart does not necessarily die immediately, and the person can still survive in a vegetative state.
However, once the human heart dies, the brain will die due to lack of oxygen, which shows how important the heart is to the human body.
According to the description in "Washing the Pulp and Clearing the Pulse", if you want to open the meridian block point located in the heart, you must take the huge risk of dying from the meridian bursting and vomiting blood.
In addition to the mantra of the heart, there are also several special annotations on opening up the heart vein, three of which are:
"The brain is the sea of marrow, and the heart is the god. ”
"The heart is in the middle palace, the monarch of the human organs, and the first of the five elements!"
"Those who force the heart will go through nine deaths and a lifetime, everyone has their own life, and don't force things against the sky!"
This is undoubtedly a warning to those who have passed the pulse that forcibly opening the blocked heart pulse will go through nine deaths and a lifetime, and they should not forcibly change their lives against the sky.
The Holy Infant once said to Li Wu that if the iron meridian and stone veins want to open up the blocked meridians in the body, they can complete it at one time or several times, but Li Wu only has one chance, either succeed or die, and there is no third way to choose.
It can be done several times, but there is only one chance.
The words of the Holy Child may seem contradictory, but they are not contradictory at all.
It turned out that the Holy Child was referring to some meridian blocking points in Li Wu's body that were located in important positions.
If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent, and for this meridian blockage point, Li Wu really only has one chance.
But it is impossible for Li Wu to give up, and it is impossible to give up in this life.
He just wants to change his life against the sky, not give up until he reaches the Yellow River, and never turn back if he doesn't hit the south wall.
Not to mention the Yellow River, even if it is a gap between the heavens and the earth, he has to forcibly cross it.
Not to mention the south wall, even if it is an iron wall, he will knock this wall down.
In order to take revenge, in order to become the overlord of the cultivation world, in order to obtain the Flying Divine Skill, what is there to fear of death?
The Heart Sutra belongs to the Twelve Righteous Meridians and is the main meridian in the human body, Li Wu does not need to be as careful as opening up the brain meridians, all he has to do is to move forward boldly, and the rest can only depend on luck.
However, Li Wu repeatedly attacked hundreds of times, and the barrier of this blocking point still did not show any signs of loosening.
At this time, Li Wu, both physically and willingly, was on the verge of collapse.
If he can't get through this last blocking point quickly, even if he doesn't want to give up, he won't be able to continue.
Everything in the world is reasonable, because there are many objective factors, and sometimes it is not subject to human will.
Since there was no way out, Li Wu also let go and decided to condense the true qi of his whole body and do the last dying struggle.
This is both a dying struggle and an unyielding struggle, a struggle against the god of fate.
After making mental preparations, Li Wu gathered most of the true qi in his body into the Heart Sutra and was ready to go.
"Bang!"
With Li Wu's fierce blow, there was a thud in his heart.
Although this voice was not loud, due to the silence of the night, the Holy Infant standing in front of Li Wu could also hear it very clearly.
Moreover, the Holy Infant also found that as this voice sounded, Li Wu's chest cavity rapidly expanded outward, and even the green tendons on his neck bulged, looking like a frog with air sacs puffed up before chirping.
Li Wu not only heard the sound coming from his body, but also felt that there seemed to be an explosion inside the meridian block point in the heart area, and a large amount of debris gushed out with the true qi flow, shaking the internal organs with a sharp pain.
A salty smell surged up his throat, and Li Wu estimated that he must have suffered serious internal injuries.
He wanted to suppress the blood surging in his body, but he couldn't do it at all.
"Poof!"
I saw Li Wu raise his head, and a bloody sword erupted from his gaping mouth, and then fell down on his back to the sky.
Meridian burst!
Vomit blood and die!
There are many uncertain risks associated with forcibly opening the blocked meridians in the body, and not the will of the person can be transferred.
Even though Li Wu's will was extremely strong, he still didn't survive this hurdle after all!
