Chapter 30: Preaching and Teaching

In the backyard, there are more than ten chapters of big pine trees, Helian Longshan sat cross-legged in the open space more than a zhang away from the pine trees, according to the master's teachings, adjusted the body and mind, and soon entered a state of calm, breathing deep and even, the true qi of the whole body was activated, and the mist swirled.

Helian Longshan silently recites the exercises taught by the master: the first step is to heat up the qi of the lower dantian, and when it is hot like boiling soup, encourage the true qi to rise along the central channel and accumulate in the mud pill palace, so that between one breath and one inhale, the true qi of the dantian needs to rise and fall between the lower dantian and the mud pill palace once;

Helian Longshan practiced according to the law, he practiced the Mixed Yuan Thunderbolt Gong diligently, and it was very easy to heat the dantian, so he encouraged the true qi to ascend the mud pill palace along the central channel, and for about an hour, the true qi only rose and fell between the lower dantian and the middle dantian, and it was difficult to penetrate the mud pill palace. Helian Longshan became anxious, sweating like rain, dizzy, and difficult to persevere, so he had to return to the house. With a depressed face, he told the master how he felt about his practice and asked for the reason.

Qian Muqing sighed: "Hey, I had expected that this Qi Hope Technique is a compulsory secret method for many of the best martial arts, and if you can't cultivate your internal strength, it will be difficult to open the central channel, and it will be even more difficult to break through the Tianmu Acupoint and communicate your connection with external objects." He raised his hand and motioned for Helian Longshan to sit cross-legged in front of him, and said: "There is no other way, to give you merit for the teacher, after the internal qi is sufficient, it will naturally be easy to pass." ”

Qian Muqing placed his right hand on the Helian Long Mountain Life Gate Acupoint and ordered him to breathe into meditation. Helian Longshan received the order, exercised pranayama, and a powerful heat flowed out of the master's palm, injected into his body, and diffused from the life gate acupoint to the body, he knew that this was the master's work on himself, and his heart was grateful. As the master continued to input the internal force into himself, the qi imported by the master gathered more and more, and the true qi was like a wild horse breaking into the herd of horses grazing by the wrangler, which was difficult to control, and only collided with the body, and later, the whole body seemed to be about to be blown up, and the skin was about to burst.

After about an hour, Helian Longshan was a little unsupportable. When he begged the master to stop, he suddenly remembered that he had a deep hatred, and if he wanted to take revenge, he must learn superior martial arts, how could he covet comfort and miss this rare opportunity. "Don't be distracted!" Qian Muqing reprimanded softly. Helian Longshan's heart sank, and he hurriedly withdrew his thoughts.

It turns out that all martial arts practitioners need to enter the realm from shallow to deep, and they all need to go through a process of refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, refining gods and returning to emptiness, and refining void and merging the way.

The more Helian Longshan thought about it, the more Qian Muqing's internal qi could not be integrated into himself, and the more he could swell and struggle. Another hour passed, and Helian Longshan really couldn't support it, and he groaned unconsciously.

Qian Muqing withdrew his palm, his face turned pale, and he slowly lay on the bed with his arms propped up. Helian Longshan rubbed his chest that seemed to be about to burst, and at the same time pulled the quilt over the master and covered it, and said sadly: "Master, you are injured, and you have to work hard for the apprentice,......" Qian Muqing didn't wait for Long Shan to finish speaking, and smiled miserably: "I am also for you to be able to collect snow lotus to cure my illness!" and then instructed: "The true qi I injected into your body needs to be practiced more before it can be used for you, don't be lazy, double your practice." ”

At this time, it was already dark, and the kitchen saw that the master and apprentice had finished practicing and brought food. Helian Longshan went to bed, served the master to eat, and then returned to his room to continue practicing. He tried to guide the internal qi that Master input to run in his body, and in less than two hours, he was able to control it freely, and Master's internal qi and his own internal qi merged into one, regardless of each other, moving and gathering at will, and being quiet and scattered and invisible.

Helian Longshan was overjoyed, knowing that he had achieved initial success, and the next step was to command this newfound internal strength, break through the central channel, ascend the Mud Pill Palace, penetrate the Tianmu Acupoint, and communicate the internal and external communication channels. He didn't dare to slack off, so he urged his internal qi and continued to practice the art of looking at qi according to the method taught by his master. After a while, Shimoda was hot, turned into a stream of heat, rose to the middle dantian, and did not stagnate, penetrated the lungs and throats, diffused into the brain, and suddenly felt that the body and mind were quiet and happy.

Helian Longshan is not greedy for the realm of Qing'an Kung Fu, and directs the true qi in his brain, such as the left, and then the right, and a gentle ball of true qi is in the head. Helian Longshan aggravated his mind and ordered this group of true qi to gather and shrink to the Mud Pill Palace, and the true qi mass seemed to be very naughty, and he didn't completely obey his command, and when he shrank it, he quickly rebounded back, and he didn't experience the feeling of boiling soup like the following dantian, and for about two hours, the kung fu did not enter the realm, so he had to fall asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, when the master got up, Helian Longshan entered to ask for peace, and told the master about the situation of yesterday's practice. Qian Muqing seemed to have expected it, and said: "Stinky boy, I want to run before I learn to walk! ”

Helian Longshan's face was ashamed, but his eyes looked at the master, full of anticipation. Qian Muqing also turned to look at Helian Long Mountain, with a solemn face, and said: "The top door of the human body is guarded by the four King Kongs, ordinary practitioners, those who rush to open and close the door will die for life, when the top door is opened, the sound is like a huge thunder, without the protection of the Master, if you are not careful, you will either die or go crazy." In order to achieve superior martial arts, you must open the top gate to pass through the second vein of Rendu, absorb the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, and strengthen your own primordial spirit. If the top door is not opened, it will be difficult to achieve miraculous achievements. This is why there are so many martial artists in the world, and there are very few Mahayana people. ”

Helian Longshan is a smart person, listening to the master's words, he already knew that he had a way to help him open the top door and achieve superior martial arts, so he fell to his knees with a thud: "Master, you can teach me the method of opening the top door, and you will never give up!"

Qian Muqing's eyes were not instantaneous, he looked at Helian Longshan, and said, "You can really endure the hardships of the pass!" Helian Longshan was in a hurry, and "bang, bang" kowtowed three times: "Master, the apprentice has endured hardships, although he will not regret death!" Qian Muqing nodded slowly and motioned for him to get up. Helian was overjoyed, and kowtowed a few times in a row.

Qian Muqing fasted and bathed, instructed his subordinates to tidy up a secret room, and asked Helian Longshan to prepare tea, fruit, incense, candles and other sacrifices, set up incense cases, and offered the tablets of the ancestors of heaven and earth, and the master and apprentice kowtowed in the morning and evening. Seeing that the ceremony was very grand, Helian Longshan felt uneasy in his heart, and the closer he got to the time when the master gave the gong, the more nervous his heart became: he didn't know what kind of hardship he had to endure for this work of opening the top door.

Seven days have passed in a blink of an eye, and in the early morning of this day, Qian Muqing sat on the bed in the secret room, and ordered Helian Longshan to sit cross-legged on the futon in front of the bed, put a stack of yellow paper on top of his head, and then stacked his hands, left and right, and pressed against the top door. Just like the previous master's self-inflicted work, Helian Longshan felt a stream of heat from the master's palm into his head, and the yellow paper on his head gradually became hot, and then it was blazing like hot coal, and an indescribable heat penetrated into his brain, and soon he had a headache, sweat and tears flowed down, uncontrollable. Helian Longshan gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind that even if he died on the throne, he would not give up his efforts.

When he was gritting his teeth and struggling, the heat of the yellow paper on his head gradually decreased, from hot to cold, from cool to cold, the cold air was refreshing, the skull seemed to be frozen and cracked, uncomfortable, indescribable, his ears and eyes gradually numb, and his teeth were trembling. After a while, the yellow paper became hot again, and the previous situation was repeated, hot and cold. In this way, the cold and heat alternate, the ice and fire attack, the pain caused by the cold and heat spreads all over the body along the limbs and veins, and after the pain, it is a strange itch, like ten thousand ants devouring the body, and in one thought, the intuition is ten thousand deaths and ten thousand lives.

Helian Longshan was determined to die, but he gritted his teeth and held on. I don't know how many hours have passed, Helian Longshan's consciousness gradually blurred, in a trance, a thunderbolt exploded in his brain, and a strong light crossed his brain like lightning, although the master had told him in advance that he would open the top door to appear in the realm, Helian Longshan still could not withstand this indescribable stimulation, his body weakened, and he fainted.

When I woke up, I found myself lying in my room, and between breaths, I felt that the air was entering my body through the skin from all directions, which was very comfortable. Helian Longshan cried with joy, knowing that the master had successfully opened the top door for him, and he repeatedly experienced how he felt after being reborn.

Helian Longshan turned over and sat up, and suddenly felt that his body seemed to be nothing, light and refreshing, wonderful, and he did his work cross-legged. A stream of heat swirled around his brain, and he subconsciously ordered this true qi to contract, and it slowly converged and gradually warmed up, the wind behind his ears was rustling, and the eagle was gurgling in his brain, and at the same time, a spherical light cluster like the sun appeared in his brain.

"Childe, you're awake!" a servant returned with an empty basin, and greeted him happily when he saw Helian Longshan wake up. Helian Longshan was frightened, the ball of light in his brain disappeared, he opened his eyes and looked at the servant, and nodded in response. The servant said, "Childe, you have been asleep for a day and a night, vomiting several liters of black, viscous liquid. I've just cleaned it up for you. ”

"Long Shan, are you awake, are you feeling okay?" Before the words fell, Qian Muqing was pushed to the room by a servant in a four-wheeled vehicle. Helian Longshan hurriedly got out of bed, knelt down in front of the car, and thanked Master for his kindness in rebuilding. Qian Muqing said with a smile: "You kid has a big creation, you will cherish yourself in the future, study hard and practice hard, and you will definitely be able to surpass you as a teacher." After a while, he said: "I just opened the top door for you, and I have opened the second pulse of Rendu, the poison of the five internal organs has not been eliminated, avoid spicy and bloody things, and only eat some light vegetables and soup porridge." Qian Muqing told him to rest more, and then left the room.

Although Helian Longshan was excited, he was indeed not physically strong, and after the master went out, he ate the rice porridge sent by the servant, and then fell asleep again.

After Helian Longshan was taught by the master to open the top door, he had already been reborn, and it didn't take long for his spirit to recover. As he slept, he suddenly felt that the bedroom was white, and the scene in the room was faintly visible, and a mouse slipped out from under the bed, crawled onto the table, and ate the leftovers on the plate. Helian Longshan secretly scolded: "Damn rat, disturb Lao Tzu's sleep." Then he suddenly realized that he was sleeping, and did not open his eyes, how to see the rat stealing food. Startled, he suddenly sat up from the bed, and when he opened his eyes, there was indeed a mouse stealing food on the table, and after being frightened, he jumped off the dining table and got into the bed.

Helian Longshan was surprised and delighted, pondering repeatedly, not knowing the reason. He couldn't sleep anymore, so he sat cross-legged and practiced, and when it was dawn, he went straight to Qian Muqing's bedroom to ask the master for advice. Qian Muqing said happily: "Longshan, your eyes have been opened, and the work of hope will be completed." This Tianmu acupoint is like another eye of a person, as soon as the Tianmu is opened, from then on, the Yuan Shen is clear. Even when sleeping, as soon as there is a sound in the outside world, the true qi will absorb information from the Tianmu acupoint, and the heaven and man will become one, and then there will be a scene in the mind, just like what you see when you open your eyes. ”

Qian Muqing ordered Helian Longshan to go to the backyard to observe the breath of the pine trees. Helian Longshan sat in the courtyard, breathing into silence, the qi of the dantian rose spontaneously, rushed out from the Tianmu acupoint, projected to more than ten large pine trees, between a breath and a breath, through the Tianmu back and forth between himself and the pine trees, the limbs felt gradually ethereal, the heart sank, a scene appeared in the blank mind, more than ten light green pillars of light stood in front of him, the appearance seemed to be a pine tree, but it was blurred.

Helian Longshan went back to his room and told Master. Qian Muqing said: "If you look carefully, you must see the outline, branches and branches of the pine tree. Your eyes are just beginning to open, and your recognition function is still low, so you need to keep practicing and improving. "Helian Longshan cultivated according to the master's instructions, and in a few days, he could see the outline, color, and branches and leaves of the pine tree clearly with his heavenly eyes. Qian Muqing also taught him to look at the qi of the mountains and rivers, and Helian Longshan practiced diligently and used them one by one.

Helian Longshan's skills deepened, and after the success of the Qi Hope Technique, he worked hard to cultivate the Finger Light Technique. This finger light technique is a kind of exercise created by Qian Muqing when he was thinking about the fire dragon demon fist, after the internal force is abundant, with a specific method of internal qi operation, the qi is concentrated in the finger belly, and the effect of finger light can be achieved. Since Helian Longshan was strengthened by his master, his skill has been greatly improved, and the intensity of his fingers and belly is getting stronger and stronger, and he can already compare with his master Qian Muqing.

On the afternoon of this day, Qian Muqing was taken by Fu Rong to discuss the affairs of the Martial Arts Academy, leaving Helian Longshan to practice at home. After practicing, I had nothing to do, so I wandered around the streets. Helian Longshan has lived in Chang'an for several months, and he is familiar with many customs and people, and he walks lazily on the street and can't lift his spirits. After turning a few streets and alleys, the flow of people gradually increased, and he knew that this was the most famous Liuli Street in Chang'an, with antiques, calligraphy and paintings, pearls and jade treasures, everything.

Along the way, Helian Longshan was very puzzled, almost all the men on the street were of all colors, and few women walked around. He stopped an old man and inquired. The old man smiled: "Young man, you don't know, since the people of Chang'an came, although the law and order are good, but for girls, it is not peaceful at all. This Di people have the custom of robbing marriage, seeing a beautiful girl, snatching home and getting married, you say whose woman still dares to walk on the street. The old man finished speaking, sighed and left. Helian Longshan was very curious, and said secretly: "The Han people look down on the Hu people, and they really can't complain about others, and these customs of the Hu people are really not welcome, is it possible that whoever has the power can snatch the most beautiful woman as a wife!"
