Chapter 48: Study hard

After Situ Nanyun's knowledge and talent have been greatly improved, Zen Master Puyun began to focus on and targeted training some of her survival skills.

One of the first survival skills taught by Master Puyun was the art of curing poison. Although Situ Nanyun has learned some basic knowledge of medicinal herbs since he was a child, he is only limited to how to distinguish medicinal herbs and their functions, and still knows nothing about how to diagnose diseases for others. In view of Situ Nanyun's late start, and the art of medicine is broad and profound, Zen Master Puyun chose one of the branches to teach her the art of curing poison.

Situ Nanyun's predecessor learned Tang medicine from her mother Liu, and Tang Men is a pharmaceutical family, with a deep foundation in the field of medicine, although the predecessor has not studied medicine for a long time, but his comprehension is extraordinary, and he has laid a good foundation in pharmacy. Otherwise, she would not have developed the secret elixir of the Tang Sect, Eclipse Flower Powder - this medicine that has been lost in the rivers and lakes for twenty years and is basically unsolvable except for the Tang Sect, even if the Dustless Dao Master uses extremely precious medicinal materials to refine two pills a year, it can only delay the spread of Situ Nanzhu's toxicity, even if it is the thousand-year-old cold pool water that the old man Tianyu can detoxify, Situ Nanzhu has to soak for three months to completely cure.

Therefore, Situ Nanyun is naturally happy about the poison treatment technique taught by Zen Master Puyun, first, she is interested, second, she wants to rely on this technique in the future to make a difference, and third, the last wish of the predecessor's mother is also to hope that Tang's pharmacy will be carried forward, which is also the embodiment of inheriting the legacy of the predecessor's mother.

Situ Nanyun studied hard and hard, showed 12 points of hard work and perseverance, except for three meals a day, the rest of the time was devoted to studying, and only slept two to three hours a day. Through nearly a month of study, she has laid a solid theoretical foundation for drug control, and by the way, although the accumulation of knowledge of the predecessor is a big help, but it only plays a role in the early stage, and the later progress mainly depends on her diligence and studiousness, of course, the whip of Puyun Zen Master has also played a lot of roles.

In the second month, it was mainly practice, and Zen Master Puyun began to teach her how to identify, recognize, and configure antidotes.

Zen Master Puyun was very strict with her, and punished her mercilessly if she made a mistake. Once Situ Nanyun accidentally made a mistake for a medicine, and was punished for copying a hundred thousand words of "The Book of Ancient Medicine", she kept writing in her hands, and she didn't close her eyes for three days and three nights before copying it. That lesson was deep enough that every time she dispensed the medicine, she cheered up and was careful, for fear that she would be punished again if she made a mistake, because she really didn't want to go through such a painful experience a second time. Fortunately, she was careful and cautious enough to not make mistakes again, from identifying poison to formulating antidotes, there was no mistake in her eyes.

When Situ Nanyun had learned a little success in the course of curing poisons, Zen Master Puyun taught her a new field of skills - Qingyun footwork.

Qingyun footwork is a teleportation footwork that combines fast walking and flexible dodging functions, and is also a defensive skill. Qingyun's footwork can move and disappear in the blink of an eye, and the figure is unpredictable, making it difficult for others to track. Situ Nanyun has learned the art of judo, which is more than enough to deal with ordinary attacks in modern times, but in this world, it doesn't work at all, and it was just a fluke that he was able to escape from Lin Yuelan's hands twice last time, but it is indispensable, so for this skill that Zen Master Puyun wants to teach, Situ Nanyun has long been eager to try.

Internal strength is the foundation for cultivating Qingyun footwork, light gong, and other advanced martial arts. Therefore, Situ Nanyun's first step is to start from the practice of internal strength, because he has never learned internal strength, he has to start with the most basic meditation, breath breathing, and acupuncture points and meridians. The technique of breath guidance in zazen is similar to the technique of breath inhalation in internal strength, so it is relatively easy for her to learn. It is a little difficult for her to recognize the acupuncture points and meridians, because there are more than 300 acupuncture points of all sizes all over the body, and it is not easy to remember their specific locations and functions, as well as the running direction of those meridians, which acupuncture points are connected, and how the meridians work with each other, etc., all of which make her head and two big.

At the beginning, Situ Nanyun felt that practicing internal strength was a mysterious and fun thing, but once he learned it, he felt that it was not like that, and practicing internal strength was actually very boring. In the first few days, she either got the wrong acupuncture points, or set up the wrong meridians, and her body was full of chaotic air currents, and when she led these scattered air currents back to the right path, it was already ten days and a half months later, and the first half of the month not only made no progress, but almost collapsed her body.

Seeing her pale face and weak legs, Zen Master Puyun frowned and shook his head.

Situ Nanyun felt that she really didn't have much understanding in martial arts, otherwise how could she have learned so hard? Fortunately, in the second month, things improved. She was able to use acupuncture points and meridians correctly to operate the airflow, and there was also a faint circulating airflow in her body, and she was secretly happy. By the third month, the air flow had strengthened a lot, and she could feel a sense of power all around her, which was not enough to resist the external attack force, but it could reduce the damage of this attack force to her, it was like a protective net placed on the outside of her body, which could dissolve part of the shock of the attack force.

In the fourth month, Zen Master Puyun began to formally teach her Qingyun footwork. Although there is internal strength as the foundation, it is not easy to practice Qingyun footwork. Qingyun footwork is very profound, to practice to the realm of walking thousands of miles a day like Puyun Zen Master, it is not something that can be done overnight, and some people even have a poor life to look at it. Of course, Situ Nanyun is also self-aware, and he will not have such high expectations for himself, and feels that it is already a great thing to be able to achieve teleportation without much effort, so he didn't put too much pressure on himself, and practiced without impatience, but he didn't expect that as soon as he let go of his mind, he made progress faster than he expected.

Since practicing Qingyun's footwork, Situ Nanyun has often used Baimaoer as an experiment. A person and a monkey often run from the east end of the mountain forest to the west to test the speed, she was faster from the beginning of ten meters, twenty meters, to fifty meters, one hundred meters...... The distance is getting bigger and bigger. She enjoyed the joy of success, so she practiced more and more diligently. Qingyun footwork has almost become the whole of her life, practicing Qingyun footwork during the day, and dreaming of Qingyun footwork at night, so that she forgets how to walk normally, often making Bai Mao'er who follows her unable to find anyone for a moment and jumps angrily.

Zen Master Puyun saw that she was proficient in Qingyun footwork, so he began to teach her light exercises. The requirements of light work and Qingyun footwork on internal force are different, Qingyun footwork requires not much internal force, and it is enough to master the rhythm of ventilation, and light power needs a deeper internal force to rely on, and the internal force must run stably, slightly weak or unstable, then the light power is unstable, and even has the possibility of falling to the ground.

Situ Nanyun has seen Lin Yuelan and Qingfeng use light skills, and the feeling of flying in the wind is unattainable for her, and now she can also fly, not to mention how happy she is, so she has studied harder than the previous homework. But because the internal force is not deep enough, she can only use light power for a short distance, for example, from the ground to the roof, from the roof to the fence, and she can't use it continuously, and after flying once, she has to stop and rest for a while.

Once, Situ Nanyun wanted to fly from a jujube tree ten meters away from the wall to the roof of the temple, but he rolled down directly from mid-air halfway, fortunately, he was only five or six meters high, and he had internal force to protect his body, so he didn't hurt his bones much, but there was still a bruise on his elbow.

Zen Master Puyun stood aside with a black face and threw down a sentence, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it."

Situ Nanyun smiled and immediately admitted his mistake, "Master has taught him a very good lesson. ”

At first, she was so anxious for quick success, because she wanted to learn and succeed as soon as possible, but in the blink of an eye, she had been here for a year, and she didn't know what the situation was outside, the key was that she missed Lin Yuelan. Recently, for some reason, Lin Yuelan's demonic face always appeared in her mind from time to time, I don't know what happened to him now? Could it be that he was forced by his father to marry Situ Nanzhu? As soon as she thought of this, she became impatient, and her heart became more and more uncontrollable. Now, she misses the faint smell of bluegrass on Lin Yuelan's body and the warm big palms that once held her palm, and she just wants to hurry up and run to him.

During dinner, Situ Nanyun heard Zen Master Puyun suddenly say, "That person doesn't necessarily want to see you so much, it's useless for you to go to see him in a hurry?" Besides, you have such a little skill, don't say that you go out to find Lin Yuelan, even if you get out of the banyan forest safely, it is impossible to get out of the banyan forest safely, and the people who want to fight your idea will ambush there. ”

Situ Nanyun's heart jumped, this old fox guessed her mind again, do you want people to live, everything is as transparent as a mirror.

Her lips opened and she muttered, "What if...... Those people are really lying in ambush there to ...... Indeed, my current strength is ...... I can't get out safely, so I'm going to stay here...... Cultivate my light skills. ”

Since he knew that the problem was due to internal force, Situ Nanyun calmed down and practiced, and was no longer impatient. She learned that it takes at least three or four years for ordinary people to cultivate internal strength before they can practice light skills, and she can practice light skills in less than a year after practicing internal strength, and it is not easy to perform them to the current level, so she no longer scolds and presses herself. It's just that what she doesn't know is that because the power of the Yuan Soul in her body is strong enough, part of the power of the Yuan Soul will automatically be converted into internal force, so the growth of internal force is faster than that of ordinary people, but the power of the Yuan Soul also needs to be cultivated, and it is not possible to continuously supply internal force, so it is still impossible to quickly improve the internal force in a short period of time.
