Lin Yan has always believed that many things can only be pointed out to the end, and it is useless to say more. For example, learn from the lessons learned.

He didn't say anything more, and after rebandaging Shen Yun's wounds, he changed the subject: "What about those talismans? ”

"Yes. Shen Yun presented those unrecognizable yellow paper talismans with both hands.

Lin Yan looked at it and explained to him in detail: "This is the Five Thunder Talisman, it is a medium-grade talisman, when it is used, it must be poured into the talisman with true qi......;

The more Shen Yun listened, the more frustrated he became. The four talismans he didn't recognize, all of them were medium-grade talismans. Right now, he didn't condense his true qi, so he couldn't use a single one.

Lin Yan returned the yellow paper talisman to him and said with a smile: "You can't become a fat man by eating one bite." In the same way, condensing true qi is not something that happens overnight. Back then, it took five years of hard training as a teacher to condense his true qi. Don't rush, take your time. ”

said so on his lips, but in fact, in his heart, he was more eager than Shen Yun, hoping that the latter could immediately condense his true qi. Because he has hurt the roots, and now the lamp has run out, and he is all relying on his strength to forcibly delay time.

After this incident, he decided to tell Shen Yun more about the outside world—the world is difficult, and people's hearts are sinister. He can't protect this child, so let's teach him more while he's still here.

Next, he told Shen Yun about tracking powder: "Disciple, the tracking powder you mentioned is one of the common tracking methods. There are many ways to make a move. Like you this time, the tracking powder should be sprinkled on the plain silk. The bells and whistles of the purse, as well as the pungent smell of the powder you smell, are all used by the guy to cover people's ears and eyes, making people mistakenly think that those are just women's personal things. When ordinary people saw him, they thought he was disgusting at most, and they wouldn't be particularly wary, but they didn't know that they had already fallen into his way. ”

Shen Yun was speechless: "That guy has so many hearts!"

Lin Yan snorted lightly: "What is this?" Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts. You have to remember that when walking outside, seeing more and saying less is the first priority, and the most important thing is to avoid rough branches and leaves. Otherwise, I don't know what happened when I died. ”

Shen Yun Zhengse firmly remembered this sentence.

Seeing this, Lin Yan smiled again: "Be cautious, that's right." However, this should not be a deterrent. Disciple, you have to remember that in this world, in the end, you have to look at the fist. In front of the truly strong, no matter what the means, it is just a useless trick. Therefore, like Huang Chunlai, who seems to be shrewd and capable, is actually a clown who can't get on the stage. This is often the kind of person who dies the fastest. Take it as a warning, my son. ”

Shen Yun understood Master's teachings and nodded respectfully.

Another half a month passed, and all the meridian maps were finished. And Shen Yun also memorized hundreds of examples of pulse cases, and at the same time, the preparation of the pulse exploration basically met Lin Yan's requirements. As a result, the latter began to formally teach him pulse cutting and needle diagnosis.

At this time, Shen Yun's well-memorized pulse case came in handy. Because Lin Yan used these examples as the basis to teach him how to analyze the pathology step by step, then diagnose the diagnosis, and finally formulate a detailed acupuncture plan.

Of course, just like this, you can't learn the art of acupuncture. Therefore, after talking about acupuncture for the first time, Lin Yan asked Shen Yun to acupuncture for himself.

As the saying goes, one day is a teacher, and a lifetime is a father. Moreover, Master taught him to do his best as if he were his own child. Where does Shen Yun dare!

As a result, Lin Yan insisted: "Apprentice, you have been studying with the teacher for so long, can't you still see that the teacher's body is sick? If you are not feeling for the teacher, please apply the needle. Then, you are the healer. Now, in front of you, there are only patients, no Master. As he spoke, he took off his robe and exposed his back, "Come on, according to what the teacher said, and start to perform the needle." ”

There was a wide black robe to cover it before, and Shen Yun only felt that the master was on the thin side. However, at this moment, when he saw the jagged bones on Master's back, he truly realized that Master's body could no longer be described as "thin".

He knew that Master was sick, but Master's illness was much worse than he had imagined!

However, he had only just begun to learn medical skills, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Yes, remember. Shen Yun responded with tears in his eyes.

Lin Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered the name of the first acupuncture point: "Da Vertebrae." ”

Shen Yun was silent, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were bright and clear. He was accurately injected.

Lin Yan felt that his technique was very smooth, and he was satisfied: "Apprentice, you have practiced many times, haven't you?"

"Hmm. Shen Yun was truthful. To practice stitching, he initially applied needles on sweet potatoes. After feeling more proficient, he began to practice with the prey he had caught alive. After practicing like this for more than ten days, he gradually realized that if he wanted to make the needle accurate and stable, it was not enough to practice the technique. It is also necessary to be able to accurately identify acupuncture points. The acupuncture points of animals and human bodies are not the same. So, he began to try to use himself as a practice object.

No, a bold attempt, the effect was surprisingly good: not only greatly improved his technique and the accuracy of acupoint recognition, but also made him realize that there is a subtle linkage between acupuncture points and meridian pulsations. And the latter is not mentioned by either the pulse case or the master.

For example, he was able to use a small stone to accurately point Huang Chunlai's acupoint because he had previously felt the pulsation of the latter's neck veins.

It's just that this kind of linkage relationship, he can only understand, not speak. He didn't know what to tell Master, so he didn't say it.

Lin Yan listened to his answer and sighed: "No wonder you memorized the meridian map, and you can use small stones to point points in the air." I see. ”

For a while, he would not judge the qualifications of his apprentices to study medicine at all: to say that the apprentices are qualified is really talking nonsense with his eyes open, but if the qualifications are really mediocre, he only realized the understanding after studying medicine for nearly two years, but the apprentice only spent half a year!

Therefore, the qualification is actually very subtle, and it cannot be generalized.

Regarding qualifications, the patriarch handed down a set of evaluation criteria. He has always believed that most of his life has been selecting apprentices according to this set of criteria. Now, however, he is somewhat shaken. At the same time, I couldn't help but have a lot of expectations in my heart: maybe the future creation of the disciple will far exceed my expectations.

So, he decided to speed up the process again. At the next meeting between master and apprentice, he threw Shen Yun a codex: "This is one of the travelogues left by Taishi Zu. Taishizu has walked through countless mountains and rivers in his life and left dozens of travel notes. The scenery along the way, what you see and hear, strange flowers and plants...... It's all documented, all-encompassing. After you finish reading this one, you will come and exchange it for another one. After a pause, he added, "Read carefully, don't swallow dates." Only one copy is allowed in three days. ”

"Yes. After recognizing more words, Shen Yun fell in love with reading. However, books are a luxury only found in the martial arts hall, where can they be bought casually? Except for a few medicine books that he brought out from the gym before, his only source of books is the master.

Now, listening to Master, there are dozens of travelogues like the one in his hand, can he not be happy?

Therefore, as soon as he returned to Zhuangzi, he couldn't wait to start reading.

As a result, the world described in Taishizu's pen was so wonderful that he became addicted to it as soon as he read it. In the afternoon, it took a lot of effort for him to pull himself out of the Taishi Zu's codex and practice flying flowers and willows and writing as planned.

Well, the morning hunt is about livelihood and cannot be delayed...... Even so, the next afternoon, he had read the entire codex.

Ahhh

He started all over again...... In this way, he read the codex four times in three days. Many of the passages in it are already familiar with the book and can be memorized.

I don't want to, when the master changes the book, he actually has to memorize the codex! I want to memorize three paragraphs, and at least one of them must be able to recite before I change it! Otherwise, I will talk about it in three days!

Shen Yun was lucky. The three passages that Master selected this time are the most wonderful parts that he thinks are the most exciting, and I have read them repeatedly. Yes, he recited it all.

Lin Yan was very satisfied and changed another book to him.

In this way, Shen Yun felt that his days had become more fulfilling and full of expectations. Unconsciously, summer went to autumn solstice, autumn went to winter, and most of the year passed.

Since Shen Yun gave Lin Yan an acupuncture, the latter's complexion gradually improved, and by the end of summer, there was a little blood on his thin cheeks.

Moreover, when Shen Yun was burning with needles, he also found that Master's pulse gradually became stronger.

These are all signs of physical improvement!

He was overjoyed.

No, after the weather turned cold, Lin Yan's pulse suddenly plummeted! The little blood on his face that had been cultivated quickly faded.

Finally, one day in late autumn, Shen Yun poked out the meaning of returning to the light from his master's pulse.

"Master......" He couldn't believe his judgment, and looked at the scorching Master, tears involuntarily burst out of his eyes.

As a doctor, Lin Yan naturally knew that he had reached the end. Seeing this, he was very pleased, nodded and smiled: "That's right, you cut the pulse very accurately." ”

"Master!" Shen Yun was so sad that he couldn't control himself at all for a while, and he fell on his knees and wept loudly.

Lin Yan stretched out his hand to caress his hair: "Master is fundamentally injured, it is not easy to delay until now, and accompany you for so long." Now, you have learned well, and the inheritance of the teacher has not been broken in the hands of the teacher. For the teacher's wish to come true, there is nothing that cannot be assured. As the saying goes, the fallen leaves return to the roots. Dust to dust, soil to earth, being a teacher is just the end of this life, and he will return to his origin. ”

Shen Yun didn't think so. In the past, it was my father, my grandmother, then my eldest sister, and then my grandfather Liu...... These people who loved him the most, and who he loved deeply, all left him one by one. Now, Master is leaving forever too.

Why! He can't keep any of them!

"No, don't, Master don't leave the apprentice!" At this moment, Shen Yunsheng burst into tears, changing his usual image as a little adult and turning back into a real nin-year-old child.

Lin Yan was emotional, and his face showed sadness: "Apprentice, I have practiced for my teacher all my life, however, in this life, I have not been able to get out of the ordinary and enter the innate realm. This is the greatest regret of life. I hope that the disciples will be better than the blue, and one day they will be able to enter the innate and become a real monk. He thought he had seen through life and death, but when the catastrophe really came, he realized that he could face the coming death calmly, but he was unwilling. Just like Master!

The patriarch said, "If you don't know the 'Tao', you can't enter the innate world"!

Before he died, Master said that he had cultivated the Tao for a lifetime, but in the end, he still didn't know what the "Dao" was!

And so he is today!

The more Shen Yun listened, the more sad he became, and he couldn't stop crying.

Lin Yan swept away the sorrow in his heart, lifted him up from his knees, grabbed his shoulders, and said, "Disciple, when the ancestor was dying, he made a blood curse. My master has been a person of the Heavenly God Sect for generations, and he died as a ghost of the Heavenly God Sect. If you die, you will return your soul to the sect. Master said that the sect is due east. Disciple, if you can get out of the ordinary in the future, you must remember to sprinkle a bowl of osmanthus wine to the east and tell him what is the 'Tao'!"

"Yes, Master. Shen Yun didn't understand it at all, but he knew that this was the master's last wish, so he held back his grief and nodded vigorously.

Lin Yan let go of him, stretched out his arms, raised his head to the sky and shouted, "Dao!

The sound was like a gold and stone striking each other, shaking the "rustling" on the stone cliff.

This was the first time Shen Yun had seen his master lose his temper like this, and he was stunned for a while.

"Poof!" Lin Yan's eyes suddenly widened, and he squirted out a mouthful of blood foam.

When Shen Yun came back to his senses, he saw that the master had lowered his arms and sat cross-legged as usual. The only difference was that his gray-haired head hung limply on his chest.

Shen Yun nudged him gently.

His body was like a mountain, booming and falling.

At this moment, the heavens and the earth suddenly lost color!

"Master—"
