Chapter 26: Waiting
Qi psychic seems to be very simple, the meridians only run five acupoints, the improvement of internal force is very limited, its main role is to feel the spiritual machine, and the side effect is deafness and vision. Since human beings were born, they cannot independently feel the aura that exists in this world, and occasionally they are born to feel the aura, and there is no one in the tens of millions of people who have such a talent. Most people still need special methods to increase their awareness of the aura of heaven and earth. This method is the most basic practice for Taoism, and the spiritism of each sect is basically the same, and there is no difference between superior and inferior.
Life in the world begins in the mother's womb, at this time the aura of heaven and earth is the most compatible, but the wisdom is not born, and the spirit is empty and does not know. After birth, with the growth of age, all kinds of impurities, dirt gradually breed in the body, and the fit with the aura of heaven and earth is getting lower and lower, so the older you are, the lower the probability of feeling the qi channel, and the Daomen takes 12-15 years old as the entry condition, which is the result of comprehensive consideration. Li Ji is now 22 years old, and he is heavy on the law, and it is not unreasonable that Yun Fairy is not optimistic about him.
In this way, he hits the acupoints every day, occasionally practices swords and fists, and almost does not leave home. Seven days later, the spine was opened. The next acupuncture point is the Lingtai, fortunately, Li Ji in the previous internal exercises, this acupuncture point is also rushed open, so he began to rush to the big vertebral acupoint, this rush took fifteen days to break, only the last brain acupoint, because of the fine human brain, Li Ji had to be cautious, frozen here for a while.
Seeing that August is approaching, Shenfang City began to slowly become lively, and the children of the wealthy families in the surrounding major cities, the official families, and the wealthy businessmen gathered in Shenfang to prepare for their own children to participate in the five-year opening of the Xinyuemen.
These dirty things have nothing to do with Li Ji, he is low-key like a grain of sand on the beach, trying his best to hide his possible differences, he will not change this way of life until he comes into contact with and masters the mysteries of the Dao.
At the beginning of August, Li Ji went to Xiaoyueguan, recognized the road, Xiaoyueguan is not far from Shenfang City in the Zhongtiao Mountains, but thirty or forty miles, the road is very wide, and he did not want to go to the ancient temple of Zhongmingguan. It makes sense to think about it, every five years, a large number of rich and powerful so-called Taoist children go to cultivate the truth and enter the Tao, and after hundreds of years, even a mountain has been stepped on.
The vast majority of Taoists in Xiaoyueguan are ordinary people, who treat people peacefully and get along very well. Li Ji ate a vegetarian meal here, burned a few pillars of incense, and left ten taels of incense money and went back. I didn't go to the viewer, more things are better than less, this kind of backdoor cutting in line is still better to keep a low profile.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is August 15, and the August 15th of this world is also the night of the full moon, but there is no festival. Li Ji asked the restaurant to send a table over, and he poured himself a drink, but he was also free. Since crossing into this world, the dearest relatives have become memories, and the grievances of parents can no longer be heard.
Nostalgia surrounded him silently like moonlight, making him more aware of what he was thinking, and the reason why he was so determined to be devoted to the Tao was not only for immortality, but also for the sake of finding a way home.
I haven't drunk for a long time, a little indulgence has been slightly drunk, so I continued to rush the acupoints, maybe it is more than 20 days of continuous efforts to come into being, maybe it is more daring to control the internal force after drinking, after the impact twice failed, the third time slightly increased the internal force, only to feel the brain 'boom', the barrier rushed through, the internal force began to hover in the brain, Li Ji pressed the excitement, according to the Taoist Jane, the waist, the spiritual platform, the spine, the large vertebrae, the brain, the internal qi went straight dozens of times before stopping.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the courtyard in front of him seemed to be a little different from before, his vision was clearer, his ears were more sensitive, and his nose could even smell the aroma of cold dishes on the stone table not far away... This is perception, so amazing ... Although he couldn't perceive the spiritual energy in the air yet, just this level of improvement would help him as a martial artist very considerably.
Practicing the method of feeling qi and channeling helped him more than that, in the following days of sword practice, Li Ji found that the connection between him and the heavy sword Wufeng was closer, Wufeng had emotions, which he already knew, and now he was more sure of this, it seemed that he could vaguely feel whether it was happy or angry, as if a baby in a womb was trying to express something... It's such a crazy world, and the sword is going to be fine?
On the first day of September, the post road leading from Shenfang City to Xiaoyue Temple of Zhongtiao Mountain was full of people, and the traffic was busy, and a child was often accompanied by several family and friends, plus more horsemen and retinues, and it was very noisy. Li Ji was mixed in the flow of people, as if he was the bodyguard of a nobleman's house, at his age, no one would think that he was here to enter the Crescent Moon Gate.
There were a lot more people on the road than expected, even if most of them were just companions. In Xichang, Lao Cangtou said that there are only a few dozen disciples selected each time, but here, the number of Taoist children must be in the hundreds, this is not normal, is there such a big difference between accepting disciples once every five years and once every three years? Li Ji had to recall what the Heavy Law had said, there is a difficulty in the Xinyue Gate?
This doesn't seem to be a good sign, but Li Ji has no choice, except for the Crescent Moon Gate, which sect's blessed land can allow him to enter? As the highest profession in this world, the Dao Sect has never been something that the poor can hope for, and with such an opportunity, Li Ji is already very satisfied, even if there may be risks.
Thirty or forty miles will soon arrive, and the slopes outside the Xiaoyue Temple of Zhongtiao Mountain are already crowded with people, only Taoist children are qualified to enter the view, this is the rule, no one has crossed it, even if it is the royal family, in front of the Daomen, the worldly power and wealth are a little ridiculous.
Therefore, when Li Jishi Shiran walked into the gate of the Taoist temple, many people were waiting to see his jokes, but they were disappointed in the results.
In the open space outside the front hall of Xiaoyue Guan, more than 200 Taoist children stood quietly and solemnly, and there were new Taoist children joining in the back, Li Ji wanted to find a less conspicuous place, but found that it was completely futile, he was more than six feet tall and more than 1.8 meters tall in his previous life, compared with a group of teenagers with an average of no more than five feet, he really stood out from the crowd.
On the high platform of the front hall, there were two Taoists, Xiaoyue Guanguan Lord Fang Song and Shen Fang Chengdao Official River, both of them closed their eyes and recuperated, unaware of Li Ji's anomaly.
An hour later, a cloud board sounded, and the Dao Tong walked towards the apse under the leadership of a few middle-aged Daoists, and there seemed to be no screening process, but Li Ji knew that things might not be so simple, these Dao Tong studied in the Dao Palace of Shenfang City all the year round, and there should be no Daoists who are confused with fish eyes and pearls.
Seeing that more than 200 Taoist children were almost gone, Li Ji stopped a middle-aged Taoist and handed over the jade slip given by the law, this Taoist seemed to be not enough, so he presented the jade slip to Fang Song, the master of Xiaoyue on the high platform, and then Li Ji saw that this master beckoned to him.
"Li Ji left the country in the south, and I saw the old immortal master... Li Ji walked over and took a deep look.
"Well, the south is far away from the country, but it's not close, and it's hard for you to run around... "Fang Song Gujing does not wave. "Friends of the Heavy Law Daoist have an old relationship with the elder of this sect, Elder Fang Shan, and I am also familiar with the old way, since the Heavy Law recommends you to come, I can't stop you on the way... In this way, can you learn the method of feeling qi and channeling?"
"Tell the immortal master, learned. Li Ji replied respectfully.
"If you want to give you an opportunity, you will enter the blessed land and feel qi, and the cause and effect will end. As for whether it will succeed or not, it is only up to you, do you understand?"
"Something is done in heaven, something is in people... Whether it is successful or not, I have a wish and am satisfied. “
"You are kind-hearted, Fa Yuan, you can bring this little friend in, all the rules and regulations are like Daotong. Fang Song waved his hand.
It's done, Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief, although he had expected it, but he was still a little nervous when it came to the end, but fortunately, everything went well, and then, it all depended on his own ability.
