Chapter 2: The Past

On the path of cultivation, if there is no strong flesh and bone body as the foundation, it is easy to be overwhelmed by the extremely strong power of heaven and earth in the later stage of cultivation, so when the ancestors created the cultivation system, they specially put the cultivation of the flesh in the first step and named it the Flesh and Bone Realm.

The flesh and blood realm is divided into three stages, small success, great success, and consummation. In addition to the strength of the physical body, the main way of dividing is the strength of the physical body.

Lifting a hundred catties with the power of one hand, surpassing the power of the mundane, it is a small achievement in the flesh and bones.

Five hundred catties with one hand is a great achievement in the flesh and bones!

At this point, not only is the strength extremely strong, but the strength of the flesh is comparable to that of gold and stone, and the masonry and stone do not hurt when smashed on the body. Only at this point can the monk's physical body be sufficient to absorb the infusion of the power of heaven and earth, and take the heart as the foundation to open the true path of cultivation - mental cultivation!

Cultivation begins with the heart. The heart is the foundation of a practitioner, and only by carrying all things with one heart can one be free in the world!

These are the teachings of his father to Shen Zhen when he was young, when he was still babbling, his father instilled in him every day a dry practice of reasoning, not asking him to understand, but begging him to memorize it. For the ignorant little Shen Zhen, these words are indeed too obscure and difficult to understand, and he asked his father more than once for the meaning, but his father always just smiled and stroked Shen Zhen's little head without saying a word.

"When you reach that realm in the future, you will naturally understand, and you don't need me to teach you. ”

This was the last word his father said to him, even when he was dying, he never relieved Shen Zhen's doubts.

Shen Zhen has been dependent on his father since he was a child, he has never seen his mother, and his father has never mentioned it to him. All he knew was that when he first came to this world, his father had brought him to settle in this town and make a career as a medicine and medicine. Since then, this remote town has had one more young man with a baby in his arms and excellent medical skills, Shen Hong.

At first, the father and son could only walk the streets and alleys to treat some minor illnesses of bruises, swelling and injuries for the villagers, but Shen Hong's medical skills were quite skillful, and no matter what kind of disease, it was a medicine in his hands. Even with a gentle touch of his hand, the bedridden patient was able to walk on the ground. Moreover, Shen Hong's medical ethics are even better, regardless of whether the other party is rich or poor, he will treat him equally, even if he knows that this person is penniless, he will treat him wholeheartedly, if the other party is really in difficulty, he will smile indifferently and take nothing. Gradually, Shen Hong's reputation spread throughout the town, and he was respected as a miracle doctor, respected and loved by the whole town. The father and son have established themselves in this town, with their own houses and their own hospitals, and they are full of people every day.

Every time Shen Hong goes to the clinic, he must take Shen Zhen with him. Many daughters of big families in the town admired the young and handsome Shen Honglangzhong, and many families wanted to recruit him as a son-in-law, but when they saw Shen Zhen in his arms, they had to give up.

When Shen Zhen turned five years old, his father began to educate him to cultivate. Since then, Shen Zhen has gotten rid of the carefree of his childhood, and can only practice at home every day, every day, his father sits in the medical hall, and Shen Zhen exercises hard at home, driving piles, moving stones, blowing sand, hitting water, and cultivating his body day and night.

Moreover, his father often used medicinal solutions to bathe and build a foundation for him, and the cost of these medicinal materials used up most of his father's income, but his father did not hesitate, as long as Shen Zhen needed it, he would break the cost. Under his father's teaching, Shen Zhen made rapid progress, in this town where there were few cultivators, he reached the realm of flesh and bone in four years, and Shen Zhen, who was less than nine years old, was also a strong man in this town, and he could be described as a genius.

However, he remembered his father's teachings and never showed them in front of others, only saying that he was studying medicine. No one knew that this little guy who ran before and after running with his father every day, and who had no heart and lungs when he laughed, had such strength.

However, the good times did not last long, one day my father went out, and after he returned, he changed his usual spirits, and the whole person was like an old man in his old age, with a withered face and a slender figure, which surprised Shen Zhen at that time.

"Father, you ??????"

Shen Hong leaned on the bed tiredly, sighed, and did not respond.

"Have you been attacked?"

Shen Zhen hurriedly rummaged through the medicine cabinet, trying to find a few herbs for his father's treatment, and visited his father many times.

"There's no need to look for it, this is my destined death, and I can't avoid it. ”

Shen Hong spoke, and his originally clear voice was already extremely muddy.

"No, I don't want you to die! Zhen'er wants to be with you forever!"

Shen Zhen cried loudly and threw himself in front of his father's bed.

"Idiot, the life and death of a person is destined by heaven and earth, no one can reverse it, and the father knows that he will die, but he just comes back with one breath, and finally entrusts you with a few words. ”

Shen Hong stroked Shen Zhen's shoulder and said.

"There must be a way, there must be a way to cure your injuries, ah! I hate that I am too lazy and don't practice medicine, but now I am in a hurry, and I can only do nothing!"

Shen Zhen pulled his hair in pain and shouted.

"No one can use two things at once, and you used to cultivate with one heart and one mind, and there was nothing wrong with it. If you want to inherit the mantle of your father, you can study well, and if you don't want to practice medicine, you can give it to a good person. The doctor is benevolent, and he cannot be entrusted to others!"

Shen Hong took out a thick manual from his bosom and handed it to Shen Zhen for collection.

"Remember, child!"

Shen Zhen cried, tears raining down.

After saying this, Shen Hong coughed violently a few times, black dirty blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, he wiped the blood from his lips, and looked at Shen Zhen with cloudy eyes, it was the first time that he had a look.

Back to light!

Shen Zhen identified his father's state, one was unstable, and he almost fainted to the ground.

"Child, you asked me where your mother was since I was a child, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I can't tell you at all! Farewell today, and finally tell you, the clue to find your mother is in that manual, but if your strength is not enough, don't rush to find it, otherwise you will definitely cause death!"

Shen Hong's face became more and more pale, but a smile slowly emerged.

"it, I'll go first. ”

After speaking, Shen Hong let out a sigh of relief and left this world with that smile.

???????

The Shen Family Medical Center held a funeral, and many residents of all kinds of towns came to mourn and express their last respect to this young man who saved the life but died young, and many large families came to express their condolences and sent a large amount of gold and silver to Shen Zhen, but he did not take any of it, and all the original items were returned. After the funeral, the Shen Family Medical Center was closed and transferred, and Shen Zhen was nowhere to be seen. Many speculated that he was probably leaving, because when others saw him for the last time, Shen Zhen was shopping for food, as if he was going to go far away. It was as silent as when their father and son first came.

But they were wrong. In less than a month, a young man with a black veil and a green bag on his back began to walk the streets and alleys to diagnose and treat diseases for residents, and when he stepped into a patient's home, everyone was stunned, this person was none other than Shen Zhen!

For a month, Shen Zhen closed his door and devoted himself to studying the medical manual left by his father. As a monk, his memory is extremely amazing, all the prescriptions are unforgettable, and in just one month, Shen Zhen digested all the memories passed down by his father. When Shen Zhen, who was less than ten years old, successively treated several seriously ill patients who were helpless for other Lang Zhong, the whole town was a sensation. For a time, the name of the doll spread all over the township. The Shen Family Medical Center opened again, and it is even more prosperous.

Vitality was no longer a problem, so Shen Zhen stepped up his personal cultivation and prepared a foundation-building medicinal solution for himself according to the grass recipe left by his father. Practicing medicine during the day and taking a medicinal bath at night, in this kind of life, three years passed in a flash, and the twelve-year-old Shen Zhen reached the perfection of the flesh and bones.

On the title page of that manual, there was his father's advice to him. The last one is to let him destroy a gang of gangsters in the town with his own hands after reaching the consummation of the Flesh and Bone Realm, and at least one Flesh and Bone Realm master must be killed before he can go out to practice. However, from beginning to end, he did not tell Shen Zhen the cause of his death, but only gave a clue about Shen Zhen's mother.

"Snow Dragon Valley ??????"

Shen Zhen chewed these words repeatedly in his heart, this was the clue his father gave him about his mother, judging from the name, this should be a place name, it should be the name of the sect where his mother is located. In this small town, he was a frog at the bottom of a well, and he had never heard of such a place, but he was sure that it was a place that was untouchable to him now.

"It's true that for me now, it's a little far away, but who can say what the future will be. ”

Shen Zhen stroked the stone sword, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his handsome eyebrows.

Today, I'm going to test your sword first!

??????

Liu Ba and his younger brothers have been rampant in this town for several years, relying on Liu Ba being a monk, and no one dares to stop him. It was this gang of gangsters, but they were killed in one day, and the news instantly caused a sensation in the whole town.

Who did it? The whole town was full of discussion.

"Listening to an old woman, it seems to be a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy. ”

"What this brother said is, I have also heard from others, that it was done by a young man, and it is said that it was the destruction caused by the young man's fight with Liu Ba. Hey, this monk's ability is really beyond our reach, but he is really fierce, he can kill Liu Ba at such a young age. ”

"It's good, and it's a disadvantage for our town. ”

Soon, a person got the news that, according to an old beggar, that young man called himself Shen Zhen!

"It's Shen Zhen!

"How could it be him?

"But his age?????? It's exactly twelve or thirteen??????"

In order to unravel the truth, people all came to the Shen Family Medical Center, and they were greeted only by an iron lock and a farewell letter from Shen Zhen, in which he admitted what he had done and said goodbye to the people. He had left and embarked on the true path of cultivation.

"People, you really can't look good?????"

Many people sighed.
