Chapter 161: Inscription
Mu Cheng observed one stone tablet with great interest, and then quickly turned to another. Although these inscriptions all imply esoteric ancient texts, they do not hinder Mu Cheng's reading ability. In school before, he had frantically flipped through the fragments of his professor's memory, and his mastery of classical Chinese was very thorough. In a short time, he had read dozens of inscriptions. However, Mu Cheng began to think as he read them, these inscriptions were all cultivators' self-introductions and experiences, but there was no formal cultivation method. Moreover, it seems that these introductions and experiences were engraved on them by the person. According to Master Xiao He, there are no people with spiritual roots in this village, so why is there such a deep stone tablet? Suddenly, his gaze turned to Xiao He, and he asked, "Xiao He, which stone tablet are you cultivating?" Xiao He asked with some confusion: "What's wrong?" You also want to learn the exercises I practiced? Mu Cheng said helplessly: "I told you, I'm not here to learn the exercises, I just want to see what is written on it." "Of course there are exercises on it." Mu Cheng continued to ask: "You can't read the text on it, how can you be sure that it is an exercise?" I've just looked at several pieces, but they're not, I'm just wondering what is written on the exercises you learned? Xiao He saw that Mu Cheng was asking so seriously, so he took him directly to the stone tablet where he was practicing. When Mu Cheng finished reading it, he was even more determined in his thoughts. These inscriptions are not a method of cultivation, Xiao He's master taught them his own unique exercises, but why should they study in front of these inscriptions? It doesn't seem necessary!
Mu Cheng asked sincerely again: "Xiao He, I think I may have discovered the secret of the village, but I am not sure, you must tell me the truth." When you are practicing the exercises, what kind of help does this stone tablet really do to you? Xiao He replied bluntly: "The exercises taught to me by the master mainly involve the skills of the legs and feet, and in addition to the movements, there are also corresponding mantras. As long as I recite the mantra repeatedly in front of this stone tablet, I can enter a state that allows me to understand and master my exercises more quickly. ”
After listening to Xiao He's answer, Mu Cheng found that it was completely different from his own guess. He wanted Xiao He to recite his mantra for practicing the exercises to him, but Mu Cheng repeatedly emphasized that he was not here to learn the exercises, so he didn't know how to speak. Suddenly, he remembered that there were several exercises in those memories he had read before, and they all had corresponding formulas, so he might as well try them. He didn't try it in front of the stone tablet where Xiao He practiced, but chose the one next to him casually, remembered the mantra of "Shocking Decision" that he was most familiar with, and recited it silently in front of the stone tablet over and over again.
Mu Cheng felt that the scene had changed suddenly, and he seemed to be in a dreamlike situation. A clear river appeared in front of him, like a silver stream, and whispered softly. The high mountains stand tall on the riverside, and the steep peaks are shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland. The majestic trees are verdant and leafy, as if guarding this magical land. The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, creating a colorful light and shadow, like a beautiful picture. Mu Cheng stood quietly in this piece of nature, his heart was shocked, and he felt the infinite power and tranquility of nature. He shuttled between rivers, mountains, and tree branches, constantly practicing his movements, and saw his movements clearly. He could feel that the exercises had become more proficient, as if he had blended into nature.
Coming back to reality from that wonderful feeling, Mu Chengpan sat on the ground, allowing his body and mind to relax and calm. He sat comfortably, closed his eyes, and breathed deeply, gently breathing. His surroundings blurred as he focused entirely on his breathing. With every breath, he could feel the fresh air entering his body, taking away the tension and exhaustion of his body. After the meditation break, he felt refreshed and energized. He deeply realized that his understanding of the exercises had reached a higher level.
He recited the mantra on the tablet again, and the scene was still the same intoxicating sight. He felt that his body had not improved much, but he still gained something. When he recovered from that state again, he did not rest, but turned to another stone tablet next to him and recited the mantra in the same way. This time the scene has changed, although it is still the river, the mountains and the branches, but the river and the mountain peaks are different from the previous scene. He had a new idea. After returning to reality again, he changed another stone tablet. Sure enough, this time the scene was different again, and he was actually in the snow.
Mu Cheng changed a few stone tablets, and in addition to deepening his understanding of "Shocking Decision", he also used the same way to further understand other exercises. Xiao He watched Mu Cheng change several stone tablets in a row, and originally wanted to remind him, but thinking that Mu Cheng said that he was not here to practice the exercises, he chose to remain silent. He continued to sit in front of the stone monument where he practiced and continued to consolidate his practice.
Tong Mengyao and Ding Peng enjoyed dinner together, and they still talked about the bits and pieces of school. After the meal, Tong Mengyao sat in Ding Peng's car, the soft seat comfortably wrapped her body, and the environment in the car was quiet and luxurious. She asked Ding Peng to play a gentle and touching song. She quietly closed her eyes and soaked up the music.
The music was as delicate as silk, and a melodious piano melody quietly permeated the carriage. She relaxes with the undulation of the melody and feels the notes rippling in her ears. Every note is like a blooming flower, blooming with a beautiful sound.
The scenery outside the car window is in front of you, and the lights on the street are twinkling like stars in a starry sky. Tong Mengyao seems to be in a psychedelic music space, where music and scenery are intertwined to form a beautiful picture.
She listened intently to the lyrics of the song, and every word carried a deep emotion that touched her heart. Each lyric seems to speak to her inner world, which makes her feel resonant and relieved.
The car stopped at Tong Mengyao's residence, and Ding Peng watched her indulge in the music, and did not disturb her, just watched quietly.
In this moment of tranquility, Tong Mengyao seems to be completely immersed in the sea of music. She closes her eyes and lets the music fly with her, taking her away from the hustle and bustle and stress, leaving only tranquility and enjoyment.
Suddenly, Tong Mengyao whispered, "Kiss me." Ding Peng looked at her stunned, as if he had heard it wrong, but it was indeed Tong Mengyao who said this sentence herself. His mouth slowly moved closer to her lips. At this moment, it seems that the music is integrated with them, and perhaps it is the spiritual integration between him and Tong Mengyao. In any case, he felt the power and beauty of music, a luxurious and enjoyable experience that soothed and satisfied the body and mind.
