Chapter 12 Two or Three Things of the Daomen
On the morning of early spring, the spring flowers bloom and everything grows.
On Wawu Mountain, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the clouds are swirling, and the scenery is very strange.
Surrounded by this immortal scene in the world, there is such a Taoist sect, until the sun rises three poles, and the door is all lifeless.
There was no one practicing in the courtyard, and no one was chanting in the lecture hall, and even in a place like the Danfang, there was no one on duty.
Where has this man gone?
I didn't go anywhere, I slept in my own room.
It's very simple, because the ancestor has a training - it is not advisable to go out in the morning.
How else to say that the cultivation of immortals is powerful, this ancestor is a person who understands people, and he summed up this kind of conclusion that is both scientifically based and in line with human nature thousands of years ahead of time, and it has been passed down as a door rule.
Therefore, in this Xuanqi Sect, from the head of the sect to the disciples, they will not get up until around the time (9 am to 11 pm).
Huang Donglai was really not used to this kind of work and rest when he first went up the mountain, and several times he got up early, so he went to the courtyard alone to practice, but he didn't expect that after this matter was discovered by Miao Yinzi, he actually scolded him, and asked him why are you so diligent?
Huang Donglai was stupid when he said this, he had never heard of this kind of strict style of asking his disciples to be lazy, but since they were all on the thief ship, he could only follow the customs.
To this day, it has been a month since Huang Donglai went up the mountain, and he is used to it, and now he will not wake up every day until he is gone, and he can't sleep until the end of the hour.
So, during this time, what was Huang Donglai doing when he was awake?
We have to go ahead and grind this ......
Let's say that after Chun Chenzi slipped Huang Geti up the mountain that day, the first thing he did was naturally to take him to meet the master.
The head of this Xuanqi Sect is the senior brother of that Miao Yinzi, and this person's Taoist name is powerful, called "Fudongzi".
Maybe when you hear the name of his junior brother Miaoyinzi, you feel quite elegant, and you think that his senior brother should have a similar name, but in fact, ...... Things are not what you think.
Their master, the former head of the Xuanqi Sect, was an extremely unkempt person—when he gave his apprentices a Taoist name, he never cared whether it sounded good or not, but based on his mood and thoughts at the time......
The reason why this Miao Yinzi is called Miao Yinzi is because he was a very poor man when he first went up the mountain, so the master gave him this Tao name, just to remind him to beep less.
So where did the name "Fudoko" come about?
First of all, it's certainly not because he has ADHD, and there was no such thing as ADHD back then......
The Master told him to "not move", mainly because his physical body was "too strong".
Everyone has heard the term "innate divine power", right?
Since childhood, he has shown incredible strength, endurance and explosiveness: at the age of five he can lift an adult, at the age of ten he can carry a cow, and at the age of twelve he can break a tree with a punch.
Anatomically speaking, this kind of gene mutation is called Hyperion constitution, the product of genetic mutation, the probability of appearing in the population is about 1 in 200 million, and people with this specific constitution have dozens of times the density, softness and toughness of muscle fibers in ordinary people, and their cardiovascular system also has amazing exercise and metabolic functions.
Moreover, with the increase of age, or with the growth of weight and muscle mass, the gap between people with Hyperion physique and ordinary people will become more and more obvious...... Usually this gap also peaks when they reach the prime of life.
So when Fudoko became an adult, he was already a "superman" in the eyes of others.
Even things like "martial arts" are basically useless in front of him.
In the final analysis...... "technology" exists to make up for the gap in "strength", and the foundation of strength and defense is height and weight, muscle and fat...... Of course, in this world, there is also an "internal force".
However, Fudo has already broken through a certain threshold in the area of "power", and has come to a field that cannot be equaled by technology, and it is the same if you find a high master to deal with him, and the final scene is roughly analogous to the sweeping monk vs. Hulk.
If you really want to kill him, compared to martial arts, it is more effective to burn, flood, poison and the like.
It is conceivable that the first twenty years of Fudoko's life were basically twenty years full of "invincibility", and this invincibility was not earned by hard work, but by God.
If he is left alone, he will most likely live like a "red plum sparrow".
Fortunately...... When he was twenty years old, he met a wandering old Taoist, who was his later master, and directly took him up the mountain.
Since then, he has slowly changed from a person who is accustomed to using "power" to solve all problems, to the "immovable son" who can move his mouth and resolutely do not do it.
Of course, for Huang Donglai, who didn't know the master's past experience, he didn't see any signs of "muscular Tao" from the other party, except that he felt that the master's Dao number was a little strange.
The process of the visit was also very ordinary, they just chatted a few words, and then Fuzizi said: "Since you are quite close to the junior brother of Miao Yinzi, then you can worship him as a master, and I will be your master in the future." ”
He didn't even ask Miao Yinzi, who was not present at the time, if he disagreed, so he decided.
What's more, when Huang Donglai informed Miao Yinzi of the news, the latter only replied: "Okay." "It's as if worshipping someone as a teacher is as casual as having a meal together in their door.
Compared with the atmosphere on the rivers and lakes that regards the relationship between master and apprentice and unique martial arts as insignificant, the common sense here seems to be the opposite.
In this Xuanqi Sect, it seems that everything is "going with the flow", "casually", and "getting by......
No one cares, "Your master is higher than mine," or "Your apprentice is more talented than mine," or "This Dao is so subtle, I have managed to practice it, and I have to keep it secret and pass it on to my own close disciples," or "This elixir is very good, even if I can't use it for the time being, I will take it and not give it to others."
Even...... No one even cares about the position of the head of the house.
As mentioned earlier, according to the seniority, that Chunchenzi is Miaoyinzi's uncle, that is to say, the head of the house is also his nephew;
But that's not the case in the Xuanqi Sect......
Here, after the former head of the family ascended to the immortal, these people not only did not compete for the position of the leader, but even had the meaning of throwing the pot at each other, because the head of the house was relatively troublesome.
At first, Huang Donglai really didn't understand this kind of atmosphere, but over time, he understood that for these old Taoists, this is normal.
A person who cultivates immortals and seeks the Tao, why should he "fight"?
People in the earthly world "fight" for fame and fortune; what are cultivators fighting for? If you win, can you become immortal as soon as possible?
On the contrary, as long as you have this "fighting" heart, you will be at odds with the matter of "attaining the Tao".
Grab the exercises, grab the talents, grab the treasures, and grab the position of the head every day...... There is intrigue between sects, and the party fights against each other...... How can this be a Taoist sect? Only the Jianghu sect can do this.
Huang Donglai also spent some time in the Xuanqi Sect to reverse this logic, and he didn't understand it in the first few days.
He also asked Miao Yinzi stupidly: "Master, I have officially worshipped you as a teacher now, and I also know that it is impossible for you to teach me the exercises or something from the beginning, do I have to start from the foundation of honing my mind such as carrying water and chopping wood?"
Miao Yinzi glanced at him at that time, and replied: "What are you doing when we are here as Shaolin Temple? What kind of water do you pick up and what kind of firewood? Why don't you go and cut green onions and pick up dung?"
Obviously, even he knew the Shaolin Temple's routine of exploiting low-level disciples......
"Naturally, there are disciples in charge of the room to do it, and everyone is working with spells, and they can manage it for ten days at a time, and use you?" Miao Yinzi then said, "Let me tell you, we are here as a Taoist gate, not a Buddhist gate, and we don't engage in Zen asceticism; if you want to hone your mind, just go to the library and borrow a few scriptures to read, don't think about changing the Tao by enduring hardships all day long, you know?"
Huang Donglai was stunned when he heard this, so he could only ask tentatively: "Then what do you mean......?"
"I'll teach you the basic qi practice method first, and I'll be idle anyway. Miaoneko replied in a tone of course.
This is what happened on the first day of Huang Donglai's official apprenticeship, but until a month later, he did not practice the "no miracle skills" he learned on the first day.
Don't look at the name of this exercise, it is called "no wonder", but in fact, it is really difficult.
Compared with this "no miracle skill", Huang Donglai feels that the Huangmen internal skills he has practiced since he was a child are funny, and if he uses a game as a metaphor, the complexity of the former is comparable to three-dimensional chess, and the latter is playing mud.
Back then, Bai Ruhong stayed in the Xuanqi Sect for a few years, but he only learned this set of introductory "Wu Qi Gong" and a set of basic swordsmanship "Wangyun Sword", and he did not "practice", but only memorized the mental method and memorized the moves;
After seeing this kind of mastery, Huang Donglai finally understood, why did these cultivators have to cultivate for hundreds of years? Because it really can't be practiced without spending so long.
In this way, Brother Huang has been practicing until winter and spring, and he can finally run the "Wu Qi Gong" relatively smoothly, in other words, he has finally practiced the "first level" of this exercise, as for when he can reach the second level...... It's hard to say about this, after all, Bai Ruhong has practiced for decades, and he has only reached the fifth layer.
On the other hand, as soon as Miao Yinzi saw that his apprentice had already learned a technique, he would naturally come to teach something new.
In line with the principle of "following fate", that day, Miao Yinzi went to the study building casually and shook it around, and took this exercise casually, according to his estimate...... This book was lost to Huang Donglai, who had to practice for at least a year and a half to master it.
Of course, that's not the point, Miao Yinzi came to Huang Donglai this day, mainly not to give him new exercises, but to give him a "Dao number".
