Chapter 8: The Sea of Spirits
Liu Shi is diligent, not only brought steamed buns but also porridge, served Yang Chen after eating, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and went to do his own thing. Yang Chen stayed in the room and continued to cultivate. At noon, Liu Shi brought lunch again, it was noodles, Yang Chen thanked Liu Shi for eating alone, and Liu Shi cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks before going back. Yang Chen has a good impression of Liu Shi, and he will definitely return this favor when he has the opportunity in the future.
In the afternoon, Yang Chen couldn't help but go to the toilet anymore, and took advantage of the fact that others hadn't come back yet, and slowly moved out with his hands on the ground, because the toilet was too far away, so he found a quiet place to relieve himself. I had just taken off my shirt and pants when I heard someone on the other side of the bushes say, "Senior brother, although we have obtained the map, our strength is still insufficient, what should we do then?" Another person said: "What are you afraid of? Only we have the map, even if the others get the news, we will already have it by the time they find it." One of the previous people said happily: "What the senior brother said is also true." Yang Chen secretly glanced over and found that it was Xing Zhou and a tall and thin young disciple who came over, this tall and thin young disciple had a sallow face as if he was sick, but his pace was steady, and his steps were like moving like a bamboo pole.
Yang Chen saw that Xing Zhou and the others had already walked in, and hurriedly lowered his head, afraid of being discovered by Xing Zhou. As soon as he got closer, Xing Zhou suddenly sneezed, and he didn't know what to say in his mouth, but when he saw that he took out a white towel from his arms, he turned his head and wiped it. Vaguely, Yang Chen saw that something fell from Xing Zhou's arms at the same time and landed on the edge of the bushes.
Xing Zhou and the two gradually drifted apart as they spoke. Yang Chen immediately relieved his hand in an awkward posture, and accidentally spilled urine on his pants, but forgot to bring a tissue. Suddenly remembered what Xing Zhou had fallen, pushed aside the bushes and looked in the direction of the fall, a one-foot-square cloth fell to the ground, picked it up and folded it casually, and wanted to wipe his butt with it, but he caught a glimpse of the cloth with some imprints of mountains and rivers. Curious to unfold in his hand, I saw that it was a map drawn, and there was a place called Taoyuan that I circled with a pen. Yang Chen couldn't understand it for a while, thinking that the things that Xing Zhou brought must have some kind of use, so he took it for the time being and knocked him out later. I had to rub my buttocks with some leaves, and then threw them on the place where I picked up the cloth, hoping that Xing Zhou would be able to pick it up and check it.
Not long after Yang Chen returned to the house, Liu Shi also came back, holding two steamed buns and a plate of green vegetables. As soon as Liu Shi entered the door, he said with a smile: "Senior brother, good news." Yang Chen asked, "What good news makes Senior Brother so happy?" Liu Shi said: "I heard that Elder Yin Xiangfeng from the Inner Gate will come to the Outer Courtyard to preach in half a month, and the disciples of the Outer Courtyard will be able to participate in the sermon at that time. Yang Chen secretly said in his heart: "It turned out to be that old man, if he sees him this time, won't he ask me to worship him as a teacher again?" I have already worshiped the master, but it's better not to see him." But he said: "This is naturally a good thing, and I must go when the time comes." Liu Shi said worriedly: "It's just that you're like this, junior brother, I don't know if you can get better in half a month?"
Yang Chen's heart warmed, but he didn't expect Liu Shi to think of himself first, and said with a smile: "It should be about the same." Liu Shi smiled and said, "Let's have dinner first." After taking the steamed buns and green vegetables, I saw that Yang Chen's hands were full of filth, and I thought that I must not be going out. After thinking about it carefully, he understood that Yang Chen had not released his hands for two days, and there was no reason why he could not go out. Hehe smiled: "I'll fetch some water, you can wash it before eating." "I let go of the steamed buns and vegetable dishes to fetch water.
Yang Chen scrubbed and buried himself in eating. Liu Shi went out to spread the news that Yin Xiangfeng was going to preach, in fact, most of the disciples already knew about it, and they just got together to talk about it.
Yang Chen ate steamed buns and continued to cultivate. Mu Yuanqi was like the warm evening breeze, attracted by Yang Chen, surrounded by his body. With the increase in opening up air pockets, the speed of absorbing vitality is also increased exponentially, and then there is the refinement of vitality by the sea of qi, the vitality in the body is becoming more and more condensed, it turns out that it takes two hours to open an air pocket, but only two days have been shortened to a quarter of an hour, and at this time, Yang Chen has opened all the Ren pulses.
After the Ren pulse is opened, the next step is to open the Du Mai, and it is necessary to guide the Yuan Qi to the Hui ** through the Qugu Acupoint, and then to the Changqiang Acupoint, all the way up until all the Du Veins are opened. It is the intersection point of the two veins of Rendu, but there are still some barriers between the meridians, and it is very troublesome to get through, and it took an hour to open the meeting**. So far, the two lines of the governor have been connected.
The vitality in the sea of qi is already very thick, Yang Chen guided the vitality of the yuan like a broken bamboo to break through several air pockets, but when he opened the life gate acupoint, he felt a cold qi break out of the acupoint, and the cold paralysis below the waist was slowly reduced, Yang Chen knew that he had found the acupoint of the lower body to vent the cold poison, and he could only wait for it to slowly recover.
It turned out that Xing Zhou's cultivation of the ** attribute Yin Cold, if the person who opened the meridians was beaten by him, he would only suffer some skin injuries, but it would not be bruised, but Yang Chen had not opened up the meridians, and the cold qi received had nowhere to vent, and he wandered around along the meridians, so it was like this. The cold poison on the chest was vented when the middle acupoint of the altar was opened before, and the cold poison on the arm was also vented through the three yang meridians of the hand through the middle navel point and then to the middle acupoint of the altar, which was recovered faster because of the short time. When the life gate acupoint is opened, the cold poison in the waist is vented through the life gate acupoint, and the cold poison in the lower limbs is also vented through the guò foot Shaoyang meridian through the Changqiang acupoint and to the life gate acupoint, but the time has been long, and it is only one meridian that communicates with it, so the recovery is much slower.
Seeing that it was the night after night, Yang Chen's continuous cultivation made Yang Chen extremely tired, and he actually fell asleep lying on the bed. When I woke up in the morning, I found myself lying on the bed with my legs stretched out, and I was overjoyed. I moved my body, although my legs were able to stretch, they were still very stiff, and I could only move slowly step by step with my hands, which was much better than yesterday. As soon as he walked a few steps against the wall, Liu Shihuo came in in a hurry, holding two steamed buns in his hands, and said, "Senior Brother Yang, something happened to the medicine field I managed, and I can't accompany you today." As he spoke, he put the steamed buns on the table and left, and suddenly exclaimed, "Huh." But the footsteps did not stop, and he said, "Come back and talk about it." Yang Chen thought to himself, "I don't know what happened?"
Yang Chen walked around the wall, but felt that his legs were soothed a lot, thinking that the flow of blood had increased the excretion of cold poison. hastily ate steamed buns and went to bed to practice. Maybe it's because of the gradual recovery of energy, today's opening of the air cavity is actually much faster, and at noon it has already arrived at the Baihui acupoint, and after waiting for a long time Liu Shi to deliver food, he has to continue to cultivate. When the sun was setting in the west, all the points of the Du Mai were finally opened. Suddenly, a stream of vitality flowed from the sea of qi from the Yin Jiao, Qi Hai, Shimen, Guan Yuan all the way down, through the perineum, Changqiang acupoint and then all the way up, through the Ming Gate, Dazhu, Baihui, Gum Jiao and other acupoints and finally returned to the sea of qi, through the Ren pulse 24 acupoints, Du mai 28 acupoints run for a week, but the spirit is doubled, and the qi and blood are comfortable.
After refining it in the sea of qi, it flowed out and traveled along the original route. When I first arrived at the Yintang acupoint, suddenly a white light shot out from the Yintang acupoint, and there was a black and white qi into the meridians, and the vitality was attracted by this black and white qi, wrapped around the black and white qi and walked along the meridians, the black and white qi entered the qi sea but turned into a balloon in the qi sea, slowly increasing continuously, but feeling the intense pain in the qi sea, Yang Chen couldn't help but be shocked under his inner vision, the qi sea was more than three times the original with the increase of the black and white balloon in an instant, and it was still extending and expanding, and the place of the qi sea was tearing at this time, as if it was about to swell。 Yang Chen desperately hoped to be relieved, but that black and white qi was not guided by himself, and it was still expanding. The pain was even more intense, Yang Chen was dripping with cold sweat and almost split his liver and gallbladder, if the qi sea continued to be broken, it would be that he would become a wasted person. Just as he was in shock, the swelling in the sea of qi suddenly stopped, and the black and white balloon had turned into a stream of black and white qi, and the sea of qi went all the way downstream along the Ren vein. When Yang Chen looked at the Qi Sea again, it had lost its original appearance, there were cracks everywhere, and it seemed that it would be shattered with a light finger, but the Qi Sea space was more than seven times the original. Yang Chen couldn't tell if this was joy or sorrow.
The black and white qi travels up from Ren Mai to Du Mai, and no longer goes down to the Yin Tang acupoint, but suddenly enters a wonderful ethereal world, this is the spiritual sea, which is the spiritual wisdom of the practitioner, leading the soul consciousness thinking of the practitioner, the more vast the spiritual sea, the more powerful the cultivator's consciousness is, and the more spiritual the sea is the more spiritual and the more exquisite the practitioner's thinking is. Yang Chen's spiritual sea was like a black night sky, with a huge and bright chessboard hanging in the middle of the spiritual sea. The longitude and latitude on the chessboard are like spiritual lines outlining the blurred space, with 361 chess pieces on the chessboard, black and white forming a strange pattern. The black and white qi entered the spiritual sea like a swimming dragon hitting the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard from time to time, and every time it hit, a chess piece flew high in the sky and emitted a shining brilliance, like the stars in the sky high in the dark night. When the fifty-two chess pieces are hung high, you can see a circular halo composed of glittering chess pieces appear in the black lacquered spiritual sea, half of the aura is composed of white chess pieces, and half is composed of black chess pieces. If you look closely, there are two chess pieces, one white and one black, the black chess pieces are close to the white ring, and the white chess pieces are close to the black ring, forming a yin and yang board.
The vacant chess eye on the chessboard seemed to open a hole in the sky, and a beam of light shot out from afar, projecting on a hanging chess piece, and the beam of light was like an optimus pillar.
When the yin and yang disk was formed, there was a glow in the high sky that fell down and shone on Yang Chen's roof, becoming that colorful color, steaming and endless. Yang Chen suddenly saw a magnificent temple faintly appear in his mind, which seemed to be located in the high sky, with a fairy dancing on his feet, attracting colorful butterflies to fly and birds to chirp, but in the end he was shrouded in clouds and could not see clearly, as if he was in a world away. I also feel that my eyes are bright, as if I can see a qiē on the ground when I open the eyes of heaven, the green mountains and flowing water, and the auspicious clouds of cranes.
After a long time, Yang Chen woke up from that addiction, and the room was still rough. Stretched out his hand and feet, although they were not as agile as ever, but they were able to walk and sit and lie down normally, remembering that Liu Shi hurriedly went out in the morning and had not returned, thinking that it was a lot of trouble, so he went out of the hut to find Liu Shi alone.
