Qingcheng Mountain Houzhangren Peak (Chapter 008~Chapter 009)
After a day of hard practice, even Xingyun's sturdy body was unbearable, in order to catch up with the lost time, Xingyun and Xingjun practiced almost non-stop under the supervision of Mu Lianzi, even at night, they had to continue to meditate and practice, without a trace of leisure.
However, to Xingyun's surprise, Xingjun's thin body was able to hold on, even easier than himself.
"Isn't this genius?"
Although Xingyun was strange, he would not be jealous of his junior brother, nor did he think deeply, he just shook his head and secretly sighed that his qualifications were too poor.
Xingjun no longer lived with Xingyun at this time, and in view of Xingjun's progress was really amazing, under the instruction of Mu Lianzi, Xingjun moved to Mu Lianzi's residence, so that Mu Lianzi could teach at any time.
Mu Lianzi has never been accepted as an apprentice, but this harvest will receive a treasure, how can it not make Mu Lianzi, who is a new teacher, ecstatic? Although Mu Lianzi was sent off the mountain, Mu Lianzi's heart was still towards his own sect, even if he was wandering the rivers and lakes, he was trying his best to defend the interests of Qingcheng, and it was just like this that Mu Lianzi found signs of Qingcheng's decline. The new Xingzi in Qingcheng Academy is not very good in martial arts except for swords, which makes Mu Lianzi really worried about the future of Qingcheng, so this accidentally discovered Xingjun can't let go no matter what, and immediately took it.
So at this time, Xingyun was alone and looked at the empty bed. Although the two of them used to sleep in the same bed and always felt crowded, but suddenly only Xingyun was left, but he felt empty and uncomfortable, although it was only a temporary separation, but Xingyun found that the relationship between brothers in the past ten years was so deep.
Shaking his head, Xingyun got up and boiled some water, wiped off the sweat stains on his body, changed into dry clothes, sat on the bed and said in his heart: "Senior brother is making rapid progress now, even if he wins a few senior brothers in the big competition in a few days, it is not surprising, even if he enters the top ten, it is very possible." If this is the case, the junior brother will be able to enter the Qingwu Hall to practice martial arts. ”
Thinking of this, Xingyun secretly felt happy for a while, but then said: "If the junior brother enters the Qingwu Palace, I'm afraid he won't come back to live." ”
Slightly stunned, Xingyun lowered his head and pondered for a moment, but his brows were relaxed, and he said with a smile: "I'm too selfish, and the fact that my junior brother can move out of here shows that he has a future, and I should be happy, why do I always worry about him coming back?" ”
Xingyun smiled, didn't think about it anymore, turned around and took out a small bag from under the pillow, but when he opened it, there was a layer of oiled paper inside, and there was a booklet quietly in the oiled paper, which was the secret book that Yuan Sirong gave him.
Carefully taken out, Xingyun borrowed the glimmer of the oil lamp in front of the bed and looked at it.
This cheats is very difficult, with the foundation and knowledge of Xingyun, it is simply confusing, but this cheats have a characteristic, that is, about the route of true qi walking, written very clearly, according to the gourd to draw a scoop, you can learn, but Xingyun does not dare to practice rashly.
Xingyun is no matter how low his martial arts are, but he also knows this internal strength and mental method, and the mantra is even more important, otherwise he will definitely have problems if he only practices with that true qi walking route, and if he is not careful, it will be the result of going mad.
Just as he was about to put down the cheats, Ke Xingyun's heart suddenly moved, and the joy of the old master when he learned that Xingjun was making rapid progress suddenly flashed in front of him.
"I took two marrow reshaping pills, but I am still far inferior to my junior brother, as a senior brother, I am too angry." Xingyun's brows furrowed slightly.
Although Xingjun is now entering the realm, Xingyun is also happy for him, but seeing that the gap with Xingjun is getting farther and farther, Xingyun's heart is not completely moved.
Looking at the secret book in his hand that even the head master ancestor was praised, Xingyun gritted his teeth and said in his heart: "Just try it according to the method of luck!" ”
And so, an hour later.
"It doesn't seem to be very useful."
Xingyun took the true qi back to the dantian, frowned, and secretly made up his mind to give it a try, but the result was that everything was as it was, there was no danger, but there was nothing to gain.
After thinking about it again, Xingyun secretly shook his head and said, "Even the head master and ancestor have not been able to learn it, how can I learn it?" If you want to take that shortcut, it's better to be solid step by step. ”
Thinking of this, Xingyun wrapped the secret book in his hand back with great importance, this secret book is a piece of Yuan Sirong's mind, even if it is completely useless, it must be cherished.
It was not too late, and Xingyun was pranayama and meditated again, but this time he was going to practice the Jade Void Gong.
Qingcheng Internal Gong Jade Void Gong is one of the Taoist authentic internal Gong Mental Methods, and it begins to enter the country slowly, but it has a solid foundation, and it is really an outlier to make rapid progress like Xingjun, but it is not accurate.
"Even if you fail in the Qingcheng competition this time, as long as you work hard, there will always be progress." Thinking of this, Xingyun exhaled, screened away distracting thoughts, and slowly lifted his true qi from the dantian to circulate around the whole body, everything was as usual at the beginning, but after half a moment, it suddenly changed!
"Why does my true qi seem to be trapped by something?"
Xingyun was shocked, he almost went mad!
At this time, Xingyun's true qi was running even slower than usual, as if it was being dragged by an invisible hand, and he could only struggle forward, until Xingyun wanted to vomit blood uncomfortably!
Ke Xingyun didn't dare to stop rashly, so he had to slowly drag his true qi forward, for a total of three hours, and he only did the most basic twelve cycles.
When Xingyun opened his eyes, he found that he was already sweating, and his whole body looked as if he had just been fished out of the water.
Fang Cai Xingyun was afraid that he would stop halfway and go crazy, and he didn't have the time and energy to think, but now that he thinks about it carefully, the one who dragged his jade void true qi actually seems to be a true qi!
"What's going on?" Xingyun was puzzled, and said in his heart: "Is there any other true qi in my body besides the Jade Void Gong?" It's unbelievable. ”
But thinking about the true qi running route again, Xingyun's heart suddenly moved, and said secretly: "Could it be the true qi in the secret book?" Just one hour to have such a big effect? ”
Thinking of this, Xingyun secretly tried it, but he didn't see the true qi coming, and then looking at his jade void true qi, although he only did a big cycle in three hours, the growth of his true qi was no different from before.
Xingyun secretly said in his heart: "I promised the eldest lady that I would never let others know the existence of this secret book, even if it is the master and the junior brother, I will hide it, if I rush to ask Uncle Mu Lianzi for this, but it is not easy to explain the reason, it will cause trouble." Although this true qi is weird, it is not harmful to me, but it is just a little more difficult to do the exercises. ”
In this case, Xingyun decided to leave it alone for the time being and see what happens in the future.
After a false alarm, Xingyun was sweating, but he didn't have any clothes to change, he only had two sets of clothes and short clothes to wear for dirty work on weekdays, and in desperation, he had to sleep with his clothes.
Eight more days.
Qingcheng Dabi is a grand meeting held by the Qingcheng faction every ten years, when all the people who travel in various places must be recalled, and the people in charge of the secular industry in various places must also return to the mountain, so the status of this Qingcheng Dabi in the Qingcheng faction is second only to the grandeur of the succession of the head of the family, and it is also a festival of the Qingcheng faction once every ten years.
With the Qingcheng competition is approaching, Qingcheng Mountain is becoming more and more lively, the people who go up the mountain are endless, not only Qingcheng sends themselves, the surrounding tourists are also more, this Qingcheng competition is also open to ordinary people during the competition, for tourists, to the temple will be a little similar.
Compared with ordinary tourists, the local factions in Sichuan, such as the Emei faction and the Tang Sect, who are good friends with the Qingcheng faction, are also invited, although they cannot see the real competition, but they will be invited to participate in the entrance ceremony of the final winner into the Qingwu Palace.
"That's why Qingcheng Dabi was very lively that day!" Xingyun said with a smile, at this time, Xingyun and Xingjun were resting between exercises, so they said some interesting things about Dabi to relieve their boredom.
Xingyun has never been down the mountain for so many years, fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, who doesn't like to be lively? It's nature.
There are exceptions, though.
Listening to Xingyun's words full of anticipation, Xingjun on the side said disapprovingly: "If it weren't for the fact that I could learn good martial arts recently and vent my evil anger for my senior brother, I would have hoped that there would be no excitement, like this mess, and I wouldn't sleep well." ”
Xingyun couldn't help but hear what he said, but when he heard the words of his junior brother to be angry for himself, his heart was warm, the two of them were not less angry on weekdays because of their low martial arts, and Xingyun was more generous, but Xingjun remembered it all.
"Don't talk about that, how about two more moves, senior brother?" Xingjun had just rested for a while, and he was going to compete with Xingyun again.
Xingyun shook his head and said, "I can't do it today, I'm really tired." ”
Xingjun pouted and said, "Usually Senior Brother Yun, you are not very strong, why are you not as good as me today?" ”
Xingyun secretly smiled bitterly when he heard this, it was not because he was not in good health, but because the mysterious true qi had always dragged the jade void gong when Xingyun was cultivating internal strength in the past few nights, and he was tired and sweating profusely every night, and even those who were beaten with iron would not be able to bear it.
If you don't have a solid foundation, I'm afraid that you won't even have the strength to speak at this time.
Xingjun saw that his senior brother was lying to himself, so he had no choice but to give up and go to the side to practice swords.
In this way, the days passed quickly in the intense cultivation of Xingyun and Xingjun and the busyness of the Qingcheng faction, and in the blink of an eye, there were only two days left before Qingcheng Dabi.
