Chapter 44: The Small World of Human Beings
After eating, the little Taoist priest Jiang Guining casually plucked a dog's tail grass and bit it in his mouth, and when he saw that there was no place to sit in the yard, he entered the house.
Although it was a major matter related to his life, Lu Yangsheng still seemed a little unhurried, and when he finished cleaning up the kitchen, he walked unhurriedly to the house.
At the door of the house, Lu Yangsheng took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and waited until the breath was uncomfortable in his chest, and then slowly spit it out.
Lu Yangsheng doesn't like this feeling of gambling his life, but many things in this life can only rely on gambling.
Life is like a casino, as long as you come, it doesn't mean that you don't go to the table, you can choose not to gamble.
finally made up his mind, and Lu Yangsheng walked in firmly.
As soon as Lu Yangsheng entered, he saw Jiang Guining lying in the grass nest, supporting his upper body with his arms, holding the wine gourd in his left hand high, and a stream of clear wine flowed out of the wine gourd.
The smell of wine in the house was pungent and uncomfortable.
Lu Yangsheng suddenly remembered something, took a deep look at the wine gourd, and then immediately shifted his gaze.
Only then did he remember a small thing that he had overlooked-Jiang Guining's wine gourd, as if he had never been free.
Seeing that someone had come in, Jiang Guining put away the wine gourd, got up and sat cross-legged, and then put the wine gourd beside him, contrary to the usual normality of being a child, and became extremely serious.
When Lu Yangsheng saw this, he also learned from Jiang Guining, and also sat cross-legged, facing Jiang Guining. Although he was a little uncomfortable sitting cross-legged for the first time, Lu Yangsheng quickly adjusted.
"Hiccup".
Jiang Guining opened his mouth, and he burped, it didn't seem to smell very good, so he reached out and fanned it on the side of his mouth, with a look of disgust, and then maybe he felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly stopped his movements and continued to look at Lu Yangsheng seriously.
In the past, looking at Jiang Guining like this, Lu Yangsheng might think that he was purely out of tune, but now Lu Yangsheng doesn't see it that way.
Jiang Guining closed his eyes, as if he had finally figured out what to say, and then opened his eyes and spoke.
"Little brother, aren't you afraid that the grapevine is alarmist and deliberately cheats you to eat and drink?"
Lu Yangsheng didn't seem to expect Jiang Guining to ask such a question, he was stunned for a moment, and then answered two words almost without hesitation.
"I believe it."
"Why?"
Jiang Guining touched his chin.
"In the past, when Xiaodao criticized people for their death, but no one believed it, did you actually believe it? Is it because Xiaodao is so handsome? ”
Lu Yangsheng didn't speak, and he didn't know how to answer.
The Taoist priest was a little narcissistic for a moment, and then said: "Since you believe it, it will be much easier, but you know too little about the cultivation realm, so you have to talk about a lot of common sense things slowly, and when you understand it almost, you should be able to understand why Xiaodao said that your life is not long." ”
Lu Yangsheng nodded, signaling that he understood.
Jiang Guining pointed at himself, and then said: "What about Xiaodao, I am the strength of the first and third realms of cultivation, the hidden source realm, by the way, you should always know a little bit about the cultivation realm, right?" ”
Lu Yangsheng didn't believe much about what Jiang Guining said about his realm, but when he heard his question, Lu Yangsheng hurriedly answered.
"I know, but I only know the first three, and I don't know the back."
Jiang Guining finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Threefold, it's enough, just understand a little bit, and the realm path behind is not particularly clear."
"Little brother, you haven't been outside, so you shouldn't know much about the things in the cultivation realm, but this is normal, after all, mortals are no more than one jiazi in their lives, how can they know about immortals."
Jiang Guining shook his head when he said this, a little embarrassed, and then went on to talk about common sense in cultivation.
"Like when mortals are born, they actually have aura in their bodies, but this aura will gradually lose as people grow up, and when people die, it is the time for the last bit of aura to dissipate, which is why people often say that there is no breath when they say they die, and this qi mortals think it is breathing, but in the eyes of our cultivators, it is the last bit of aura in the human body. And after some people die, the last bit of aura will not be able to dissipate for various reasons, and it will remain in the body, at this time the soul will dissipate, but the aura is still there, and it will be corpsed. ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Guining probably felt that he was a little far away, coughed, and turned back to the topic.
"If you compare aura to wine, you can see the human body as a wine gourd of the trail, some people are greedy and like to drink more, then the wine in the gourd will be less quickly, some people don't drink, just put it there, the wine in the gourd will still be less, and some people accidentally break the gourd, then there will be no wine left in the gourd, this gourd, naturally it will be wasted."
After Jiang Guining finished speaking, he picked up the wine gourd beside him and took a sip of wine, then nodded Lu Yangsheng with his head and asked him if he could understand.
Lu Yangsheng nodded again and again.
Compared to Ying Xingxuan's general generality, Jiang Guining's preaching was obviously clearer and more understandable.
"As long as you can understand it, the trail will continue."
Jiang Guining did not put down the wine gourd, but continued to hold it in his hand.
"So mortals are sure to die, because mortals are destined to only have a little aura, and sooner or later it will run out, of course, there are some masters in the world, who feel that since the aura is in the gourd, then make the wine gourd a little better, and it is better to replace it with an iron and gold one, so that it can naturally slow down the flow of aura. This idea is not wrong, and it is also because of this idea that a kind of cultivation that is different from cultivating immortals has been derived from the world - martial arts. Of course, Xiaodao is not a martial artist, so the specific situation of a martial artist is not clear, if you are interested in going to the mortal world by yourself, it will naturally be clear at that time, Xiaodao will not say much here. As for what I told you earlier, you can have a general understanding, but what is said to you at the bottom of the trail, you have to listen clearly word by word. ”
Although Lu Yangsheng had been listening carefully, Jiang Guining couldn't help but remind him, and only after receiving a positive answer did he continue.
"What Xiao Dao wants to tell you next is the affairs of people in our cultivation. How did the method of cultivation come about, there is no evidence in the current cultivation realm, there is a saying that it was given by the ancient true gods, but I don't know if it's true or not, you don't have to care, you just need to know that the kind of mortals and martial artists in the cultivation I told you are completely different. ”
"We cultivators can be said to take the opposite path of martial artists. Let me tell you this, there is no way for mortals to stop the flow of aura, no matter how strong the martial artist tempers his physique, the final result can only be decay, so when we came to the immortals, we chose to break the gourd ourselves. ”
Lu Yangsheng looked at Jiang Guining in shock, and involuntarily asked, "Broken?" ”
"That's right."
Ignoring Lu Yangsheng's shock, Jiang Guining poured a little wine in his hand with a painful face, and said to Lu Yangsheng.
"You see, if I compare the aura to the wine in my hand, what if I want to keep it from drying up? Then there are only two ways, one is to keep adding to keep it from drying up, but if there is a container, the container will always have a time to break, and what is the use of having more aura at that time? The second point is to put him in the vat, so you don't have to worry. Got it? ”
After Jiang Guining finished speaking, he muttered don't waste it, drank the wine in his hand in one gulp, and didn't forget to stick out his tongue and lick it.
Lu Yangsheng has now been able to ignore Jiang Guining's funny behavior, and what he just said Lu Yangsheng still needs to sort out.
Jiang Guining finished licking the palm of his hand, smashed his mouth, and looked regretful, and then saw Lu Yangsheng thinking about things there, so he became angry inexplicably, stretched out his hand and slapped Lu Yangsheng's head, and said angrily.
"Why are you so stupid?"
"Let me tell you this, heaven and earth are the big wine vat I said, if you want your aura not to be exhausted, you can only draw from heaven and earth to replenish yourself. Then in order not to kill yourself, you need to smash the cracks in your original gourd, and then open up a place in your body to accommodate the aura, and the most important thing is that you have to make the new place connect with the world. Of course, you need to pay attention to proportion, if you don't reach the realm, but accidentally smash the gourd, hehe, then you will wait for death. ”
"Someone once said, let me tell you, you can figure it out for yourself. A scholar who has attained cultivation once said that this human body is actually a small world, and this martial artist tempers his body and soul, but in fact, he is tinkering in his own small world, so his achievements are limited. And cultivating immortals is to connect the big world with their own small world, as long as they succeed, then it is really how high the sky is, how high they are. He also compared the meridians of the human body to mountains and rivers, the qi fu to lakes, and then compared the acupoints to water sources, how big a lake can be in the human body, how much water can be held, and how high the cultivation can be, depending on how many water sources you have developed, how wide the river is, and its own carrying capacity, and this corresponds to the cultivation realm of the monk. ”
Finally finished saying everything that should be said, Jiang Guining took a deep breath and raised his neck to pour it.
Lu Yangsheng lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and suddenly spoke.
"What you mean is that as long as you cultivate immortals, you have already opened a gap in the original container, and with a gap, the aura will pass. And now that I am cultivating, it is very difficult to absorb the spiritual energy, which has caused the spiritual energy in my body to make ends meet, and if this continues, not only will I not be able to go to the next level, but I will not even be able to retain my original spiritual energy? ”
Jiang Guining was startled by Lu Yangsheng's sudden opening, almost choked to death, coughed again and again, and finally eased up, and yelled at Lu Yangsheng angrily: "If you think about it, you can understand it, what are you yelling about, it's not that you want to marry a daughter-in-law and roll the quilt, what are you excited about." ”
Lu Yangsheng didn't pick up the stubble, waiting for Jiang Guining's next step.
After scolding, Jiang Guining got down to business.
"You're not too stupid to finally figure it out? I'm telling you, you don't know anything about your body now, but you only have the method of running the aura. It's like digging a river, you dig the river well, but there is no water source, then no matter how well you dig the river, no matter how smooth the river is, there will not be a drop of water coming in, and maybe it will leak your original aura. I tell you, do you want to live then? Dream on. ”
Jiang Guining's words made Lu Yangsheng's mouth dry, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only stare at Jiang Guining with a pale face, waiting for him to give a solution.
"It's not difficult to solve the problems of your body now, you only need to open up a few tricks, and then straighten out the meridians, and you can naturally do it, but the question is do you know how many meridians you have opened? Which point are these meridians connected to? Those of us who have a teacher, when we practice, we have a strict order of which trick to open, which meridian connects which trick point, which qi house it leads, that is all strict requirements, and if you take a wrong step, you may go mad, and the lightest result is that the meridians are all damaged, and you will become a waste, what about you? You don't even know what the qi is and where the acupuncture points are, you don't know these things, how do you straighten them out? ”
Lu Yangsheng's hands and feet were cold, and he didn't know how to answer.
Jiang Guining didn't even look at him, and drank the wine by himself.
If it is a living medicine, it is naturally necessary to open all the meridians of the selected medicine, fix the frame with a secret method, and then wash the small world of the flesh with the aura, so that the impurities in the aura can be filtered out, and the purity of the aura can be guaranteed. When the time is ripe, you can open the whole body acupoint that is the carrier of the medicine, and flush it with aura, and you can get a great tonic pill in a short time
Of course, this kind of thing is clearly forbidden in the immortal cultivation world, but ah, the world is too big, and there will always be people who want to take shortcuts.
Moreover, the medicinal properties of the living pills refined from different materials are not the same, and Lu Yangsheng? Tsk, even someone like him has to say a big word.
Of course, Jiang Guining thought about these words by himself, and it was not time to tell Lu Yangsheng.
