Chapter 18: Nine Days of Crane Song
"The patriarch of the Yu clan, the Qiji of the immortal family!"
From childhood to adulthood, Qi Jingzhi has often seen white cranes flying from the sky and mountains, and he is no stranger to this kind of slender and elegant flying bird, but he never knew that there was such a talk.
As for reciting this boxing sutra silently before practicing boxing, it is not a requirement of the "Immortal Feather Sutra", but from the teachings of Mengfuzi, which is the so-called review of the old and learn the new.
After a while, Qi Jingzhi slowly stretched out his fist.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the description of the crane shape in the boxing sutra surfaced in his mind.
"The crane is on the phase: rhinoplasty and short mouth, then sleep less; If the feet are sparse, the strength is more; If you show your eyes and bare eyes, you will see far away; phoenix-winged feathers, then like to fly; The turtle's back turtle belly can give birth; If the front is heavy and the back is heavy, it is good at dancing; If you have a slender toe, you can do ......"
The young man pursued the white crane in his heart, with his arms as his wings, sometimes gliding, sometimes jumping, sometimes shaking his wings, flapping the water waves, his movements were light and stretched, as if he had also turned into a light white crane, fluttering and wanting to go up to the sky.
At the same time, the remaining experience of Lu Yunzi's boxing practice in the spiritual mask also turned into Qi Jingzhi's cultivation food, flowing through his heart.
"When cultivating, we must always keep the four words 'eight-sided support', the head must be topped, the neck must be stable, the chest must be pulled out and the back must be pulled, the shoulders must be heavy, the tail must be drooping, and the whole body must always have the intention of earning. Over time, you will be able to knead all the joints and fascia of the whole body, and the bones and flesh will naturally be strengthened! ”
The boy was intoxicated with boxing, and every move became more and more lively and vivid, and the charm was natural.
At a certain moment, he suddenly blessed his soul, and stretched his arms suddenly, like a white crane flapping its wings about to fly, and the bones around his body made a continuous crisp sound, and the whole person actually grew taller out of thin air, and his two arms also stretched out a few points.
Qi Jingzhi became more and more selfless, and as long as a wisp of thought was maintained, he could freely move his fists and fights.
At this moment, the mantra of the "Singing Crane Method", which he had just memorized and was used for the second layer of marrow washing and hair cutting, suddenly jumped into his heart and occupied most of his mind.
"The crane method is the secret method of washing the marrow and cutting the hair, and its gist is all in the four words of sinking, floating, swallowing and spitting!"
"The words sinking and floating are not only the body, but also the divine will."
"The one who sinks, the dantian is sinking, and the two feet fall to the ground and take root, and there is the meaning of not moving. The floater, the body is raised, the strength starts from the foot, and the body is sent through the waist, which has the meaning of taking off. ”
"Sink is to accumulate power, floating is to exert force, sink and float to circulate, endlessly!"
Half-asleep and half-awake, the tips of the Crane Singing Method were like Huang Zhong Dalu, roaring in the young man's heart.
He seemed to be overwhelmed, frowning at first, then simply closing his eyes completely.
"Swallowing and spitting are the key to breathing, the so-called big throat to spit, trimming the neck to accept the new, so the longevity is immeasurable!"
"When swallowing the air, supplemented by the Shen word formula, it must be deep and powerful, so that the chest and abdomen are full and complete, and finally it will not vomit or be unhappy!"
"When exhaling, you must exhale the evil breath in your chest and the sound of the roar in your mouth at the same time, which is called exhalation! With the sound of urging, brave and fierce, and then there are cranes singing in Jiugao, and the sound is heard in the sky! ”
In the indescribable epiphany, Qi Jingzhi's Feihe fist suddenly changed again, becoming more and more mellow and pure, and there was a faint divine sense emanating from it.
I saw that when he landed, he became heavier and more stable, and when he jumped, he became more elegant and lighter, and the sound of breathing in his mouth became louder and louder, and finally turned into a clear and long roar, which shook the four fields and went straight into the sky.
This long howl lasted for a long time, and countless birds flew in fright, hovering over the dense forest, refusing to fall for a long time.
I don't know how long it took, Qi Jingzhi suddenly opened his eyes and found himself in the canopy of a towering ancient tree.
What he stepped on and what he held in his hands happened to be a huge branch, and there were countless branches and leaves behind him, and he stood very firmly and firmly.
As far as the eye can see, the moon hangs high in the distance, and countless birds hoverhead circling and chirping.
Looking down again, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the forest was deep and dark, and for a while I couldn't see how tall the ancient tree I was standing on.
Seeing this, the surprise in Qi Jing's heart was really indescribable.
He practiced boxing into a daze, and his perception of the outside world was intermittent, and he only vaguely remembered that he had practiced the crane method, not only was he as light as a crane, but he also spread the sound of the nine heavens, and there was no place inside and outside his body that was not unpleasant, but he really couldn't remember how to get on the tree.
In this deep mountain and old forest, naturally no one will solve his doubts.
Xu was too focused on cultivation just now and unrestrained, Qi Jingzhi was puzzled, but he felt that his whole body was soft, and he could no longer exert half of his strength, and then a sense of sleepiness struck violently, and it was uncontrollably uncontrollable.
The next moment, the young man's eyelids drooped.
The snoring sounded, and he fell asleep leaning against the branch.
……
I don't know how long I slept, Qi Jingzhi was suddenly awakened by the vibration of the scabbard on his left arm.
The young man who had been disturbed by his dream opened his eyes, and saw that the night was still deep, and he was about to have a fire attack, but suddenly heard a heart-rending cry coming from the forest below.
"My poor son, what kind of thief killed you here!"
The young man in the tree was stunned, how could anyone cry in this barren mountains and mountains, three watches in the middle of the night?
He listened intently, and heard that the crying seemed to be an old woman, and there were also the voices of several men and women, either gently comforting or crying and cursing, and it was a mess.
"If I kill you, I will even skin you and eat meat!" My poor son, what a pain in the killing of the old body! ”
"Mother's Day mourning, the most important thing at the moment is to find the murderer and avenge the little brother!"
"What the second girl said is reasonable, she must let the thief also taste the taste of peeling and cramping!"
A group of people under the tree scolded as they walked, but their voices came from far and near, and they came straight to the ancient tree where the young man was standing.
Qi Jingzhi's mind was like lightning, knowing that the group of guys under the tree was probably in the same nest as the red fox, and they were coming for him at all.
He sneered, and secretly said in his heart: "The red fox can't even speak, how strong can his mother and second sister be?" If you really have the ability, where will you talk so much nonsense? It's clearly a lie! ”
Seeing that these fierce and inward-looking guys were lingering under the tree, and threatened to use all kinds of cruel methods to concoct the murderer, Qi Jingzhi suddenly opened his mouth and shouted to the tree: "The little master has eaten too much fox meat, and he is really too lazy to move." If you want revenge, go up the tree by yourself! ”
The group of foxes under the tree was silent suddenly, and after a while, the old fox spoke again, and his tone was extremely vicious: "Your heart is really vicious, surrounded by our bitter masters, and you dare to open your mouth to shout and close your mouth to commit murder. Who knows how many traps you've laid on it, waiting for us to go up and send us to death! ”
"Exactly! If you have the ability, you come down! The second girl just now shouted.
Seeing that the foxes didn't dare to go up the tree, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but settle down, and immediately laughed loudly: "I'm too full, and my eyelids are fighting, if you don't dare to come up, the master will sleep first!" ”
The foxes under the tree were furious when they heard this, and they spat foul language one after another, and the scolding was boiling to the sky.
Qi Jingzhi can distinguish a little, there are always as many as seven or eight, worthy of the name, not noisy.
The foxes cursed for a while, and when they saw that the young man in the tree was unmoved, one of them suddenly shouted loudly: "I'll go home and get a saw, let's cut down the tree, and see if he dares to run rampant!" ”
Hearing this, the group of foxes under the tree applauded, and the second girl laughed sharply: "Wonderful, wonderful!" Bring the big pot at home with you, and wait for the guy to fall down and fall half to death, throw it into the pot and cook it, and everyone chew it clean, so as to eliminate this hatred! ”
