Chapter 21 The top three in the world
When Xiao Dongshan heard this, he was overjoyed, got up and walked to the entrance of the courtyard, and when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he saw the ancient waterway people with dusty faces and fluttering sleeves into the courtyard. Xiao Dongshan shouted: "Master! I'm here! The words were a little choked. The ancient waterway man smiled and said, "Dongshan, I guessed that you were coming here!" I heard that you were seriously injured, let me see, where is the injury? Master Huixin said: "When I picked it up, I had a knife stuck in my back, and I was half dead, and I was almost raised." Xiao Dongshan raised his arms and said, "Master, the injury of the flying knife is fine, it's just the hands...... I'm afraid I'll be disabled for the rest of my life, and I won't be able to serve your old man......" The ancient waterway people were taken aback, pulled up Xiao Dongshan's hands and wrists to take a closer look, and were furious: "Good thief!" There are such brutal people in Shaolin Temple! If wisdom is not controlled, I will never give up with him, I want him to be a towering ancient temple, and he will never live in peace! Xiao Dongshan saw that the ancient waterway people's always good-tempered anger not only had the momentum of thunder, but also spoke wildly, which showed his love and pity for himself, and his heart was moved, and said: "Master, this is not done by Shaolin Temple, it is Xu Junping who played the flag, Master and enter the house, I will tell you slowly." β
The two entered Xiao Dongshan's bedroom, and Xiao Dongshan told all the things after the separation in detail, and talked for half an hour. Hearing this, the ancient water Taoist was silent for a moment, and said: "Disciple, this is yours, the rivers and lakes are not enmity, but it is just four words: the weak eat the strong." Your skills are low, but you are so involved in strife that you suffer a big loss! Xiao Dongshan said: "Master, if the apprentice didn't have that little chivalrous heart, would the master still be so good to me?" Will Mrs. Huixin still treat me like this? She was very fierce at first! There is no such thing as a little chivalry...... How can so many people be so nice to me? Without that little bit of chivalry, I don't even know who I am and where I'm going! β
Gu Shui Dao said: "Okay, okay, don't talk about it!" If you want to be a big hero, you should also practice good martial arts first, look at you, you are disgraced and unlucky. Saying that, he got up and walked out, Xiao Dongshan saw that the master was angry, and hurriedly said: "Master, the apprentice said the wrong thing, you blame it, don't be angry, where are you going?" Gu Shui Dao said: "I went down the mountain to grab medicine, there are a few flavors of medicine that are not easy to get, you wait for me for a few more days." Only then did Xiao Dongshan know that the master was not angry, and his own hands could still be cured, and he was overjoyed. The ancient waterway man stopped and said: "Apprentice, it is not difficult for you to be able to dress and eat with this hand, but the pain is unbearable every day, are you willing?" Xiao Dongshan said: "Yes, I can't let people serve food and clothing all the time." The ancient waterway people didn't say much more, and went straight away.
After three days, the ancient water Taoist came back with a tired face, carrying two big bags, Xiao Dongshan saw that the Taoist chief's robe was torn in several places.
"Master, did you go and collect the medicine yourself?"
"I went and tried my luck...... The others are bought, and I didn't get it, but it doesn't hurt if I don't have it, this recipe can be adjusted......"
The ancient water Taoist said, poured out the medicine and cleaned it up one by one, Xiao Dongshan leaned over to take a look, astragalus, Chuanxiong, atractylodes, rehmannia, honeysuckle, ginseng, incense, Sichuan fritillary...... Countless. The ancient waterway people divided the medicine into two kinds, one is to boil the soup and drink, and the other is to make the ointment. Xiao Dongshan saw that it was a good time to study medicine, so he asked while watching, and the people of the ancient waterway were also willing to teach while making the system. The ancient water is humane: "Drink the medicine for three days first, soak the wound in medicinal water for three days, make the ointment, and then apply the ointment for three seven twenty-one days, you can almost wave it gently, and then change the ointment......"
As he spoke, he opened another bag, which was full of utensils for medicine, stone nests, clay pots, and pounding sticks...... And so on.
Since then, the ancient waterway people have made a delicate nunnery into a pharmacy and carefully healed Xiao Dongshan. Sister Copper Hammer no longer appeared, but Xiao Dongshan told the master about Sister Copper Hammer in one go, and the ancient water Taoist people specially ran to the stone gate to look at the doorknob and the boulder, closed his chin, and said, "Sure enough, divine power!" β
During the period of applying the ointment, the ancient waterway people had a gap, went down the mountain several times, and added some medicinal materials and utensils. When he came back one day, he mysteriously said to Xiao Dongshan: "This Huixin Master! We've been living for so long, but we've delayed her fortune! Xiao Dongshan said in a low voice: "Master has found something, quickly, tell me secretly." The ancient waterway man said in a low voice: "What do you do with these two elegant residences?" It turned out to be a tryst place for rich men and women, and you lived for so long, didn't you delay her getting rich! Xiao Dongshan chuckled and said, "Master, you are really a bag to inquire, can you find out?" The ancient waterway people only laughed.
Xiao Dongshan quietly asked again: "Master, has you found the monk you are looking for?" Who is this monk? The ancient waterway man changed color and said: "What monk! Who said that immortals must be monks! Xiao Dongshan said: "Master is not a good person, hide it from me!" I've told you everything, and I haven't told you anything...... Hey, the master is not sincere. Gu Shui Dao said: "It's looking for a senior monk, don't ask, it has nothing to do with you." Xiao Dongshan looked dissatisfied, and said, "Okay, tell you, but not now...... More on that later. β
With oral administration and external application, Xiao Dongshan's wrists gradually became conscious, mainly because of the pain, usually dull pain, sometimes suddenly stabbing like a knife cut, the pain is like a knife cut, the pain is sweaty, and the sleep is not steady, I always have to wake up five or six times a night, and the pain is unspeakable, but Xiao Dongshan said: "This is the punishment I deserve for not taking care of Sanjiu!" β
Gu Shuidao said: "Child, don't blame yourself too much, those who have become great things since ancient times are not shameless, who is not guilty?" What is the benefit of remembering the past? Not only will you blame yourself like this for nothing, but it will do great damage to Qi refining, and those who are angry will also be powerful. If you are weak, you will lack energy, and you must not! β
Xiao Dongshan said: "So if you want to practice world-beating martial arts, you must first be shameless?" β
Gu Shuidao said: "No, not only practice, everything in the world is like this." But it's not a cheeky four words, but a calm and peaceful four words. β
Xiao Dongshan became conscious, and his remorse began to be resolved.
Excessive self-blame is that hippo men often make mistakes when they are immature, solve this knot, and be calm, so that they will grow up.
The master and apprentice talked about martial arts again, and Xiao Dongshan asked for advice on the incomprehension of practicing Chaoyang Nine Qi Xuangong one by one, and the ancient water people explained them one by one. Xiao Dongshan practiced according to his words, practiced for two days, and really made great progress, and the pain in his wrist was also greatly relieved, Xiao Dongshan was overjoyed, and the people of Gushuidao were also surprised: "I didn't expect you to progress so fast, this Chaoyang Nine Qi Xuangong has reached the third layer, and you don't need to be lucky, it will be born naturally, it is wonderful, and it is very good for your hand injury!" In this way, the certainty of healing your wounds is three points greater. β
Twenty-one days passed, and sure enough, the hands were sensible, and the fingers could swing gently. The people of Gushuidao had already prepared the medicine and put it on with another medicine, but this time it was extremely itchy, more unbearable than the pain, Xiao Dongshan couldn't bear it, he fell to the ground and kept rolling, and when he was tired of rolling, he leaned on the foot of the bed and gasped. After another 20 days, I can already dress and hold bowls, but I am still a little clumsy with chopsticks.
Early this morning, the Taoist said: "Apprentice, there is a radical cure for the teacher, but there are some difficulties, are you willing to give it a try?" Xiao Dongshan looked at the master, saw that his eyebrows were drooping, and he had aged a lot, his heart was sour, and he knelt down with a plop, and said: "Master, you have worked hard in vain, I, I ......" choked up and couldn't speak. The ancient water Taoist pulled him up and said: "Child, some suffering is grinding, some suffering, damn it, it's just suffering, for the teacher I will do my best, so that your suffering is just grinding." As a teacher for one day and a father for life, I will never let you leave this alone, and besides, I take medicine as a pleasure and do not feel hard. I have a method that can cure you and restore you to your original state, but for the sake of my internal strength, I can only adjust medicine and use needles, and I can't cure you alone, and I need a person with extremely high internal strength to help you for a full hundred days. Sit down, and I'll tell you in detail. β
Xiao Dongshan pulled a stool with his hand and sat at the feet of the ancient waterway people. Gu Shui Dao said: "Pulling a stool like you can be done, but without treatment, you can't hold heavy objects for the rest of your life, you can't make a sword, and even using chopsticks will be unfavorable, and it will be painful for life, and over time, it will be very harmful to the internal organs." I need one person, and the internal force must reach the state of exhaling and forming, taking things in the air, seizing the heavens and reversing the five veins, with his help, supplemented by acupuncture, which can make you recover. β
Xiao Dongshan said: "Exhalation forming, taking things from the air, seizing the heavens, reversing the five veins, and this kind of master?" β
The ancient waterway said: "The frog at the bottom of your well, I don't know how many strange people there are!" There are three people I know of who have reached this state. The first one is my friend who I told you, who also practices Chaoyang Nine Qi Xuangong, but he is thousands of miles away, and his return date is infinite, so we can't count on him. β
Xiao Dongshan said: "Thousands of miles away, what kind of place is that?" β
The ancient waterway said: "How do I know! I haven't been there again...... The second is the 'blood crow' Du Ruliu Du senior, who pretended to be a teacher with extraordinary medical skills, but never dared to call himself the first in the world, just because the medical skills of Du Ruliu's predecessors are better than mine, not only that, but his internal strength is pure, so that the realm of nothingness, his hermitage, I also went a few years ago, if he helps, your injury will be cured. It's just that this person is both good and evil, and even more evil than good, and it is absolutely impossible for him to heal you for a hundred days in a row. β
Xiao Dongshan said: "I have also heard of such a person, since I can't ask for it, tell me who the third person is." β
Dao Chang said: "The third person is the first master of the Dharma Academy of Songshan Shaolin Temple, and he is the younger brother of the Shaolin abbot Ruzhi. He is ignorant of the world, obsessed with martial arts, and is a martial arts wizard who has not been met in a hundred years. Shaolin abbot Ruzhi master and I are familiar with it, let's go to him first, this Shaolin holds the stone palm, hehe, he Shaolin Temple can not get rid of it. β
Xiao Dongshan listened and said: "I thought that the third person was Yao Zhongtian, the hero of the Central Plains, but I heard that this person was chivalrous and righteous, so I thought it was good to beg him." β
The ancient water path man sneered: "Children just don't know. Yao Zhongtian is invincible, that is worthy of his name, but that is an external skill. His external skills have indeed reached the pinnacle, and that stick is not a stick in his hands, but a dragon, but if there is no stick in his hand, his kung fu will naturally be three points weaker, so dependent on equipment, how can he be a real master? His internal strength is even worse, he was a blood feud and learned from his teacher, how could he be calm and peaceful? With resentment in my heart, there is always an extra piece of qi, just like I blame myself and there is always a lack of qi, and I can't make a big deal! As for saying that he is chivalrous and righteous, it is just a famous person, and everyone has a faΓ§ade-dressing statement, how can he take it seriously. All celebrities, the real face is not so simple. β
Xiao Dongshan was silent.
The Taoist chief said: "This is a long way to go, I will go down the mountain today to prepare some medicine for the road, buy another donkey, come back the day after tomorrow, and then we will leave the next day, I am not here, you can apply the medicine yourself, take it slowly, don't make it all over the ground." After a few more words, he left the hospital.
After the ancient water people left, Xiao Dongshan thought secretly: "I'm leaving, I have to go and say goodbye to Sister Tonghammer." When he arrived at the stone gate, he hammered twice, but he didn't move, he didn't make a sound, and he couldn't make any effort to beat it, so he had to kick it a few times, rest for a while, and kick it a few more times, but there was still no movement. In the end, he found a small stone and hit the door a few times with his hand, only to buzz, Xiao Dongshan thought secretly: "I should hear it now!" β
I sat on the big stone and waited for a while, only to hear a bang, and the stone door was pushed open, and then I saw that the stone door was two feet thick! Behind the door, a wind hugged Sister Copper Hammer and walked out, Xiao Dongshan peeked behind her, only to see that it was a hole more than ten zhang deep, just allowing people to pass through, there was a bright light at the end of the hole, Xiao Dongshan said secretly: "It turns out that there is no cave in it, it is actually a sunny place, it is really wonderful." β
Sister Copper Hammer came out and closed the stone door casually, and said, "Brother Xiao hit my cave door like this, is there something urgent?" Xiao Dongshan raised his hands and shook at her, his face was full of smiles, Sister Copper Hammer smiled, stepped forward, dragged Xiao Dongshan's waist and eyes with both hands, lifted Xiao Dongshan twice, and laughed: "Your hands are good!" Great, your master is a miracle doctor! Xiao Dongshan hurriedly said: "Let me go quickly!" Hurt! Sister Bronze Hammer gently put him on the stone and said, "Where is your master?" Xiao Dongshan said: "Go down the mountain to prepare medicine, come back the day after tomorrow, and then we are leaving, I am here to say goodbye to you." Sister Copper Hammer was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Excellent!" This is not a place to live forever, so where are you going? Xiao Dongshan replied: "My hands are really not very good, I can move, but I am not good, and I will feel pain a few times a day, my master took me to ask Shaolin to see the master, to borrow his magic to heal me." Sister Copper Hammer said: "I see, excellent, it can be cured." I've got a meal to say goodbye to you tomorrow. Saying that, he looked Xiao Dongshan up and down with a smile, Xiao Dongshan was uncomfortable, and said, "What's wrong?" Sister Bronze Hammer said: "I'm really happy for you." After saying that, he lingered no longer, and opened the stone gate.
Xiao Dongshan saw that the stone gate was closed, and Sister Copper Hammer was gone, driven by Sister Copper Hammer, he couldn't tell how happy he was, and thought: "I always thought that I was going to be crippled for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect that the old man of Master brought me hope...... Seeing Sister Yang Yang again, she doesn't know how happy she is! I don't know what happened to her...... Why do I dare to think of her again...... Don't care about her, I'm just happy......" He was talking to himself alone in the yard, his left foot was upside down, his right foot was bumping again, he twisted happily, twisted twice, and danced a few more steps, making an ugly appearance.
Suddenly, there was a puff of laughter, Xiao Dongshan hurriedly put away his strange posture, his face turned red, and when he looked around, where was there anyone? Xiao Dongshan was shy, and thought to himself: "I don't know which teacher it is...... I'm so ashamed! So he fled back to his room and did not leave the room again for a day.
The next day, Sister Copper Hammer really came with a basket, made seven or eight dishes, and set a table full of them. Xiao Dongshan picked up the chopsticks, ate clumsily, and dropped the meat on the table several times, Sister Tong Hammer saw it, both happy and worried, happy that Xiao Dongshan could eat by himself, worried that it was still far from recovery, and I don't know if I could be completely healed with the help of the master. Xiao Dongshan was elated, and kept saying: "Sister Copper Hammer, you see, I can even hold such a big piece of meat!" See! See! β
Sister Copper Hammer waited for him to finish eating, took the dishes and chopsticks into the basket, took out a handkerchief from her arms, opened the handkerchief, and inside was a jade pendant, on which was a fish, and opened her mouth to the right to spit foam, looking extremely cute. Sister Copper Hammer said: "'Gentleman of words, warm as jade', this piece of jade has the magic of detoxification and decontamination, but all nausea and dizziness can be contained in the mouth, although it cannot be said that a hundred poisons are not invasive, it can also alleviate one or two." Brother Xiao wore it, and he also knew that there were still people who cared about you in Huangzhou Triangle Mountain. Xiao Dongshan took it, and was taken aback, it turned out that this jade actually had a sense of warmth, and when you looked closely, you saw that the jade pendant was smooth and delicate, and the color was like fat, which was the top grade of the top grade. Xiao Dongshan said: "It turned out to be a treasure, this is too valuable, how can I ask for it!" Sister Copper Hammer said: "Don't mother-in-law, mother-in-law, I'm leaving." The future is long, and the gentleman cherishes it. "Carrying the basket, the wind went away.
Xiao Dongshan took the jade pendant in his hand and was sad for a long time.
Two days later, Xiao Dongshan and the ancient waterway people said goodbye to Huixin Shitai, and each rode a donkey to Songshan.
