Chapter 36: Copying the Exercises
The second floor of the library building.
Compared to the large number of miscellaneous books on the first floor, there are many fewer books here, so the way they are arranged is very different.
The bookshelves on the first floor are only full of books one by one, and there are no bookshelves here, only antique bookshelves.
Only one book is placed on each bookstand, and the cover of each book exudes a unique book fragrance, which is an insect-proof and antiseptic oil fragrance.
Under each book there is a wooden plaque, which briefly introduces the content and essence of the book.
Book of Taoism: "Nine Turns of the Waves"
Introduction: Cultivators use sea beasts to set off waves, channel the power of the waves, and form a violent attack technique.
After reading the introduction, there is no need to even flip through the book.
Li Shuidao's toad and co-ginseng, it is impossible to go to the sea to make waves, this is the Dao method that those monks who have a giant sea beast as a co-ginseng need to cultivate.
Taoist book: "Rain and Dew Heart"
Introduction: By absorbing the essence of rain and dew, cultivators can enhance their own mana and improve their cultivation and combat effectiveness.
Li Shuidao took out this Taoist book and flipped through it slightly.
For himself, this Taoist book is far inferior to "Jade Toad Xingqigong".
Li Shuidao's fellow staff is a jasper toad, and practicing "Jade Toad Xingqigong" is twice as effective with half the effort, and practicing "Rain and Dew Heart Method" is twice as effective with half the effort.
Cultivation is not much in essence.
After a cursory flip through the "Rain and Dew Heart Method", Li Shuidao put it back in place and walked to the third desk.
"Ice Water Heart Sutra", "Blue Water True Gong", "Cold Ice Sealing Method", "Water Moon Flowing Beads", "Toad Hard Qigong", ......
walked past several bookstands in a row, some of them only read the introduction, and some of them turned the book up and read it in detail after reading the introduction, especially "Water Moon Flowing Pearl" and "Toad Hard Qigong" felt that it had some effect.
Practicing "Jade Toad Xing Qigong" and "Golden Toad Qi Locking Method" every day will occupy a lot of Li Shuidao's time, after all, it is rare to travel thousands of miles without accumulating the skill of size.
Later, he also wanted to refine some pills by himself to enhance his cultivation, and he didn't have so much time to practice irrelevant Dao methods.
You have to find the kind of Dao method that can quickly form combat power and can complement the exercises you are currently cultivating.
"Water Moon Flowing Pearl": Cultivators can control the power of the Water Moon to perform healing methods.
The description of the power of the water moon seems to complement the trick of "Jade Toad Looking at the Moon".
"Toad Hard Qigong": The five poisonous door toads participate in the same road goods exercises.
This is a defensive Dao technique, which is exactly what Li Shuidao lacks.
Li Shuidao thought about it for a long time and decided to transcribe "Water Moon Flowing Pearl" and give up "Toad Hard Qigong".
"Water Moon Flowing Pearl" seems to be able to complement and integrate with "Jade Toad Looking at the Moon".
That is equivalent to bearing an extra fruit on the tree of "Jade Toad Xingqigong".
It is better to bear one more fruit than to plant a new tree.
Although "Toad Hard Qigong" is a defensive exercise, it has too many shortcomings, not to mention that there must be a cover door on the body, and it cannot resist spells, and it is completely impossible to resist in the face of fire and thunder and other Taoist techniques.
……
On each desk, there are several blank sheets of rice paper and pen and ink. This is to allow those who are interested in the book of the Tao to transcribe it themselves.
Li Shuidao picked up a pen, dipped it in ink, and began to write quickly on rice paper.
He transcribed carefully, with a focused expression, transcribing, understanding, and thinking at the same time......
The white-haired Ninth Uncle came behind him several times, but he didn't realize it.
Night is coming......
Uncle Nine came quietly. He gently lit the candlestick on the table, reflecting Li Shuidao's focused eyes. He took out the steamed bun and put it on the table.
The aroma spread, and Li Shuidao stopped writing and looked up.
Uncle Nine smiled softly: "This is made by your mother herself, and your father sent it over." ”
Li Shuidao was slightly stunned, stretched out his hand to take the steamed buns handed by Uncle Jiu, smelled the aroma of the steamed buns, and felt a burst of warmth in his heart.
The family is still good, and his direct blood relatives are even more kind to him.
Although some of the rules are not humane, in the final analysis, it is for survival, so that all people can better stand in this world.
"Thank you......" Li Shuidao continued his copy of the book while nibbling on the steamed bun.
The brush in his hand made a rustling sound, every page of the book was the crystallization of his hard work, and every word was his pursuit of cultivation.
Finally, after a long night, Li Shuidao completed his manuscript. He carefully bound the copied secret book into a booklet, from the first pile of scattered papers to the current complete scroll, which bears witness to his hard work and perseverance.
"Originally, the books on the second floor of the library building can't be taken away, even if it's a manuscript, but your Taoist book is recorded in secret texts, you can take it away, will you come back tomorrow?" Uncle Nine asked.
"Come back!" Li Shuidao said categorically.
Following.
Li Shuidao found two more suitable exercises: "Ice Heart and Blue Water Sword" and "Chengtan Kendo".
"Ice Heart and Clear Water Sword": By fusing the sword with the power of the ice attribute, the cultivator can turn the sword into ice, so that the sword has a cold and sharp attack power.
"Chengtan Kendo": By practicing Chengtan Kendo, cultivators can comprehend the essence of water kendo, make swordsmanship more powerful, and be able to rise from the water and attack enemies unexpectedly.
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Shuidao still decided to cultivate the "Ice Heart and Blue Water Sword".
The reason is very simple, there are not many pools in Montenegro, and even fewer deep pools, so the location is difficult to use.
Day 3.
Li Shuidao was attracted to a spell called "Water Surge Stealth Technique".
"Water Surging Stealth": You can hide yourself in the water through the power of water and achieve stealth without a trace.
This means that Li Shuidao doesn't need to find a deep pool at all, even if it is a shallow stream, Li Shuidao can also use "Water Surge Stealth" + "Chengtan Kendo" to sneak attack.
There are very few deep pools in the Black Mountains, but small streams are extremely common.
Li Shuidao raises white-feathered cranes, and white cloud cranes have to catch small fish by the stream.
Where there is water on the Poison Dragon Ridge, he knows it very well.
In this case, isn't he fragrant to be a sixth child who specializes in sneak attacks?
Li Shuidao spent two days copying both "Water Surge Stealth Technique" and "Chengtan Kendo".
That's it!
Li Shuidao copied a total of four Taoist methods on the second floor of the family library: "Water Moon Flowing Pearl", "Ice Heart Blue Water Sword", "Chengtan Sword Dao", and "Water Surge Stealth Technique".
"Jade Toad Xingqi Technique" is the foundation of cultivation.
The "Golden Toad Locking Method" is used to cover up the cultivation.
"Water Moon Flowing Pearl" is used for healing.
At the same time, "Golden Toad Qi Locking Method" and "Water Moon Flowing Bead" are both internal breathing techniques, which can complement each other with "Jade Toad Xingqigong" and can be practiced together.
"Chengtan Kendo" + "Water Surge Stealth" is used to kill enemies and escape.
"Ice Heart and Blue Water Sword" will not be practiced for the time being, and will be kept for the future.
Nowadays, Li Shuidao still has a big shortcoming, lacking Dao skills in movement and defense.
But there is no need to worry, after all, the road of cultivation is still long, and when you return to the sect after half a year, the master still has to teach himself Taoism, so you can't teach it without cultivating.
At present, he has consulted: "Water Moon Flowing Pearl", "Chengtan Kendo", "Water Surge Stealth".
It's only half a year, and it's already very cramped.
Returning to the family from the Five Poison Gate, Li Shuidao spent four days copying the exercises, and in these four days, there were already four couples who worshiped their ancestors and entered the cave house......
