Chapter 304: Longtan Lake

But since if you want to practice the out-of-body soul, you must first get through the Great Zhoutian, and I have no choice but to try to practice it.

Wuchenzi told me that different Taoist sects have different interpretations of the big and small Zhoutian, so the methods of getting through are not different, and the generally said Da Zhou Tian refers to the Tiangang Da Zhou Tian that uses the innate Bagua diagram for guidance, and the cultivation of Tiangang Da Zhou Tian must be cyclic and gradual, without ten years and eight years, it is almost impossible to get through. What Wuchenzi is going to teach me now is another cultivation method. If there is no talent, even if you practice for thirty or fifty years, it may be in vain, but if you have talent, you may be able to get through it in thirty or fifty days.

This method is suitable for people like me who are not deep-rooted, but I hope to be able to get through as much as possible, so I practiced under the guidance of Wuchenzi, in order not to be discovered by others, in the next few days, every night I was in the middle of the night after everyone else had fallen asleep, I secretly got up to practice, a practice is two or three hours, in this way, my sleep time at night is not enough, at the beginning, I felt sleepy every day, but after a few days, I found that I was not only not sleepy, but also in good spirits than before, I really didn't expect that the method taught me by Wuchenzi would have an effect so quickly, I was surprised and happy in my heart, although I had not been able to get through the big and small Zhoutian, but I vaguely felt that I might have talent in this area, and my confidence suddenly doubled.

After a few days of cultivation, I was gradually able to sense the changes in the qi in my body, and I found that in my qi sea, there was a rather peculiar aura, which felt very powerful, but it was not controlled by my mind, and this aura seemed to be independent, but it seemed to have subtle changes with the fluctuations of the aura in my body.

I couldn't help but wonder, so I asked Wuchenzi for advice, and Wuchenzi told me that the strange aura in my sea of qi is a fairy qi, generally speaking, if the immortal qi enters the mortal body, the mortal can't bear it at all, and if it is not good, the flesh may even be torn apart by a powerful aura. But perhaps because of my own special aura, not only was my body torn apart by the immortal aura, but this immortal aura was actually integrated with my own aura, and it was precisely because of the existence of this immortal aura that I was protected from the invasion of the demon spirit. It's just that because my current cultivation is really limited, I can't control this immortal qi, and after I get through the Great Zhou Tian and reach the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, I will be able to control this immortal qi.

After listening to Wuchenzi's words, I immediately understood what was going on, that group of immortal qi must be the power of the dragon soul hidden in my body. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that as long as I reached the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, I would be able to control this powerful force. So I stepped up my cultivation, and I couldn't wait to get through all the big and small weeks in one day.

However, I don't want to be too anxious, not only has there been no progress in cultivation, but even caused some disorder in the aura in my body, Wuchenzi warned me, as the so-called speed is not reached, and if I cultivate the Inner Dan Technique, I pay attention to going with the flow, if I have too strong a sense of purpose and too anxious, I will inevitably have distracting thoughts, which will not only make it difficult to succeed in cultivation, but even have the risk of going mad.

However, perhaps because of my life experience, I have always been a fan of wild thoughts since I was a child, and it is not easy for me to be completely free of distractions. So Wuchenzi taught me a special set of breathing methods, and asked me to use this set of breathing methods to regulate my internal breath for half an hour every day before practicing the Inner Dan Technique, and then start to practice the Inner Dan Technique before the internal breath is even and peaceful.

I tried it for a few days, and found that according to the method that Wuchenzi said, my mood was really calmed down a lot, although I couldn't completely achieve no distractions, but it was much better than before. I believe that as long as time passes, it should not be a problem to get through the big and small Sundays.

In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed, I have to practice for two or three hours almost every night, although I don't have enough sleep, but my spirit is quite good, I practice every night, and go to the store to take care of business as usual during the day, even if I am cheap and Wen Qingshan, I don't notice anything wrong with me at all.

On this day, I was playing chess with the cheap in the store, and the fat cow suddenly ran over and said breathlessly: "Old ...... Boss, I'm ...... My master asked you to come over. ”

I was in the middle of a fierce battle with the cheap, and I asked without raising my head, "What's the matter with Boss Wen looking for me?" ”

Niu Fat Man said, "Master...... The master only said: The intelligence dealer has news, and I don't understand what he means. But he said you know. ”

I was holding a chess piece in my hand, and when I heard about the "intelligence dealer", my mind suddenly became excited, and I didn't care about playing chess, so I immediately got up, threw the chess piece in my hand on the chessboard, and hurried out of the store. Behind him, there was a cheap shout: "Damn! Brother, what do you mean! I'm finally about to win, why don't you just run away! ”

I replied without looking back: "I lost this game, come back and play with you!" ”

I trotted all the way into the Guyuan Pavilion across the road, and when the guy in the store saw me coming in, he immediately said to me, "Boss Wen is waiting for you upstairs!" ”

I nodded at him, took three steps and two steps, and walked briskly upstairs.

When I ran upstairs, I found that Wen Qingshan was on the phone, so I had to stand aside and wait, and after listening for a while, it turned out that he was booking a plane ticket, and I didn't know where he was going.

After he hung up the phone, I hurriedly asked, "Boss Wen, Niu Fatzi said that there is news of intelligence dealers?" ”

Wen Qingshan nodded and said, "The other party sent me a message back, but he is now in Beijing." ”

"In Beijing? Could it be that you were booking a flight to Beijing? ”

"That's right! Today's flight at a quarter past three o'clock in the afternoon, I also booked a ticket for you, the time is a little tight, you go back and pack up now, and we will rush to the airport in half an hour! If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it on the road. Wen Qingshan said in a non-negotiable tone.

"Hey! Ay! I'll go back and clean up now! I didn't bother to ask, I rushed downstairs in a hurry, and just walked to the door of Guyuan Pavilion, I met the fat cow who happened to enter the door, because I ran too fast, and almost collided with him.

The fat cow wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Boss, you ...... Why are you in such a hurry? ”

I said, "Boss Wen and I have to go to Beijing soon!" I need to rush back and pack my bags now! ”

"What! You two are going to Beijing? Why are you going? The fat man asked in surprise.

I didn't have time to talk to him in detail, so I just dropped a sentence: "You help me talk to the cheap, let him take care of the store at home, and we will come back in two days." With that, he went straight home.

Wen Qingshan and I arrived at the airport on time, but due to air traffic control, the plane was four or five hours late before taking off, when we arrived in Beijing, it was already more than 11 o'clock in the evening, because we didn't expect it to be so late, and we didn't book a hotel in advance, so we had to spend one night in the express hotel near the airport. Early the next morning, I took a taxi to the city.

On the way, Wen Qingshan told me that the whereabouts of the intelligence dealer we are looking for are very secretive, and no one even knows his real name, he calls himself Long Jiu, and people generally call him Jiuye, Long Jiu has no fixed residence, and often chooses different locations to meet people, this time he made an appointment to meet Wen Qingshan, and the location is in a courtyard next to Longtan Lake in Beijing.

The two of us took a taxi to the main gate of Longtan Park, the park gate was bustling with people, Wen Qingshan made a phone call, and said to me: "We are waiting here, and someone from Longjiu will come and take us over." ”

I nodded, muttering in my heart, "How can this still look like an underground party!" ”

Wen Qingshan and I came out of the hotel early in the morning, and we hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and there happened to be a stall selling breakfast at the entrance of the park, so we bought fried dough sticks and soy milk, and waited while eating, and waited for about 20 minutes, a man with a strong figure, a flat head, and a black jacket walked in front of us, and the flat-headed man looked at us both, and asked Wen Qingshan: "Your Excellency is the third master of Wen?" ”

Wen Qingshan hurriedly bowed his hand to the comer, and said with a smile: "It's Wen Qingshan down there." ”

"The Ninth Master asked me to invite you, the two of you, please come with me!" After the flat-headed man finished speaking, he led the two of us to Longtan Park.

Walk into the park, soon saw the rippling lake, the area of the lake looks not small, along the way, Wen Qingshan introduced to me with great interest: "This Longtan Lake was originally the brick kiln when the Ming Dynasty built the outer city during the Jiajing period, at that time in order to burn the city bricks, dug out a large depression in this area, and then gradually formed a large area of water, until after the liberation, it was renovated into the east, the middle and the west three major lakes, the total water area is nearly more than 700 acres, more than the sum of Shichahai, Houhai and Jishuitan. ”

I didn't expect the history of Longtan Lake to be so short, so I couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked, "Then why is this lake called Longtan Lake?" ”

Wen Qingshan replied: "The more official version, because from the topography, this lake and Longxu Ditch form a tail-to-end trend, so it is named Longtan Lake, but I have heard of another theory. ”

"What's that?" I asked curiously.

"It is said that Emperor Jiajing said that it was to build an outer city, so he took soil here to burn city bricks, but in fact, it was to build the imperial tomb."

"Build the Imperial Tomb?" I was a little surprised, looked around, and said, "This Longtan Lake is low-lying, and it is easy to breed yin and evil spirits, so it is really not a good place to build a yin house, how can it be selected to build the imperial tomb!?" Besides, weren't the emperors of the Ming Dynasty buried in the Ming Tombs? ”
