Chapter 17: Seven out of ten is not accurate
Looking back at the direction of the cave again, he no longer sighed, and circled around the boulder, and in a flash, he appeared outside.
The air was moist, the ground was muddy, and there was silence.
The mountain wind blows, the faint light disappears into the shadow of the mountain through the mist, and there is an ape chirping, which is faint and long, echoing in the mountains.
For a while, loneliness came to my heart, looking up at the sky, and a few stars hanging high in the night, which made me even more lonely.
......
In the early morning, the sun rises from one end of the ridge and shines through the rolling clouds on the waterfall halfway up the waist, splashing rainbows and birds flying in flocks past the edge of a cliff.
Fan Yu woke up from meditation, watched the bonfire go out, added some dry firewood, washed up, ate some mountain fruits, drank hot soup, and went out of the cave.
A shiver, itchy nose pricked by the cold wind, sneezed, tightened his clothes, and felt the warmth brought by the sun.
"It's almost winter. ”
Fan Yu exhaled, the slight condensation flew away, stood for a long time and returned to the cave, cleaned up, and went up the mountain with a bamboo basket and a medicine hoe.
In the mountains after the rain, everything seems to be revived, the Qi is more intense, and some precious herbs are full of vitality after being washed away by the rain.
Cylindrical, four or five inches long, yellow-brown is Panax notoginseng, disperses stasis and relieves pain, can also cure hemoptysis, hematochezia; leaf lanceolate, stem height six or seven inches is bamboo mushroom, slightly bitter, has the effect of driving away heat and avoiding heat.
There are also others, such as baiji, curly cypress, peilan, gastrodia, etc., but in the morning, there are many harvests.
Passing through a waterfall and pool, drinking some mountain springs, wiping sweat, and about to rest, I saw a big tree, old vines entangled, branches and leaves, in the meantime, a few small vine branches hidden in it.
"He Shou Wu?"
Fan Yu hurriedly went over, carefully picked up the branches and leaves, carefully distinguished, and was immediately surprised: "Oovate, the inflorescence is conical, rough on both sides, glabrous, and the leaf sheath is membranous, it is He Shou Wu." ”
Looking at its length again, it is more than 30 inches, much longer than ordinary branches and leaves, and I am afraid that it is nearly a hundred years.
I didn't dare to use a hoe, gently plucked the soil with my hands, and cleaned it carefully along the roots.
The tubers are thick, oval-shaped, black-brown with a hint of red, like a large sweet potato, full of flesh, and a foot long.
Fan Yu gently lifted it up, weighed it, more than two catties, and sighed: "If you sell it for money, it will be worth a hundred taels of silver." ”
But this precious medicinal material, it is a pity to sell, you must know He Shou Wu, its root piece into medicine, can calm the nerves, nourish blood, activate the nerves, detoxify, but also increase the essence of blood, strengthen the muscles and bones, is the best treasure of people who practice martial arts.
Over the years, I have been digging into the mountains and forests, and I have collected countless medicines, but it is the first time that He Shou Wu is as big as this.
Could it be that your luck has come?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, fleeting, and without a trace of inspiration, but vaguely, as if I had forgotten something important.
Thinking about it, I don't have the slightest clue.
After pondering for a long time, he shook his head, since he couldn't remember, he didn't bother anymore, and put He Shou Wu into the bamboo basket.
I looked at the sky, and it was already afternoon.
The weather in the mountains is changeable, you can't stay for a long time, it may rain at any time, and there is no place to hide in the mountains and forests at that time.
What's more, the mountains and forests at night are no better than during the day, when wild beasts come out to feed, it is good to encounter wild boars, and it is fatal to encounter wild wolves.
And the bamboo basket is also full, and no matter how much you harvest, you can't hold it.
So he dared to go back, but after a hill, the clouds suddenly rolled, and the lightning walked away the snakes, followed by a majestic rain.
Fan Yu smiled bitterly, a thunderbolt exploded, shaking his ears and itching, but his body was stunned, he lost his balance, slipped and fell to the ground, and almost fell into the cliff.
"It's really an unforeseen situation, and people have good fortunes and misfortunes. ”
This sigh, but in my heart, it was like Huang Zhong's masterpiece, and I finally remembered that I had forgotten something.
Crape myrtle is easy to count.
Last night in the Qionglin Palace, in the realm of the Heavenly Machine Terrace, I got the opportunity.
Then, that scene flashed in his mind, as if the voice of the old Tao sounded in his ears: "Heaven sends a killing machine, moving stars and changing the residence, the earth sends a killing machine, the dragon and snake rise to land, the man sends a killing machine, the heaven and the earth repeat, the heaven and man are combined, and the foundation of ten thousand transformations is ......."
The next thing I did, I pinched the trick, and after a while, I stopped again.
Memories seem to be covered with a light veil, and some key points are hazy and scratching, no matter how you think about it, you can't see it clear.
"What's going on, I remember it clearly, as if someone was covering it up, could it be that the old way did it?"
The more Fan Yu thought about it, the more puzzled he became, after he came back last night, he actually forgot about it, and he didn't think about it at all, if it wasn't for a thunderclap just now, he woke him up, I'm afraid he would have forgotten it completely.
Now it is like seeing flowers in the fog and finally a layer apart, and you are never allowed to enter.
But then I thought, if the old Tao is unwilling to teach, why should he explain such secret techniques alone?
What the hell is going on?
The rain had already soaked his clothes, drenching him through, and with another thunderclap, he did not dare to linger any longer, and hurried away.
Back to the cave, put down the bamboo basket, light the bonfire, pick up some water, and put some Tianqi and Sanqi into the crockpot.
He immediately took off his shirt and sat cross-legged on the hay.
"Dry is the sky, exchange is the ze, separation is the fire, the earthquake is the thunder, the Xun is the wood, the kan is the water, the Gen is the mountain, the kun is the earth, and the five elements belong to it, and the five elements correspond to the time ......of the day."
"Hexagram qi is prosperous, Zhen, Xunmu is prosperous in spring, away from fire is prosperous in summer, dry and dui prosperous in autumn, Kanshui is prosperous in winter, Kun and Gen are prosperous in Chen, Xu, Chou, and the last month, this is among the five elements, and the five elements are mutually reinforcing;
Hexagram Qi Decline, Chunkun, Gen, Xia Qian, Dui ......"
His eyes were slightly closed, muttering to himself, and his fingers moved, like a lotus blooming, and then quickly closing.
After a long time, I vomited air and touched the sweat.
Just now he calculated a hexagram for himself, asking about the safety of his relatives, and the hexagram said that he was slightly panicked, but there was no big problem.
The mood was uplifted, so he closed his eyes again, ready to calculate the fox demon that had harmed him, but the result was blurry.
Don't give up, after doing this four or five times, there is a hexagram.
Walk in the south, 100 miles from the ground, live in the forest, hide in the cave.
One hundred and ten miles to the south, it will be deep into Lushan, and I don't know what kind of boundary those fox demons have found as a new nest.
Fan Yu chuckled, and didn't think about them anymore, after all, he had a chance, and who didn't necessarily suffer.
There are four or five hexagrams, two hexagrams, and the rest are vague.
When I counted again, my mind was weakened, and I felt tired, as if I had walked dozens of miles, and I had done a lot of heavy work, and my spirit was sluggish.
The Qi at the dantian, I don't know when, has been exhausted, there is no trace left, no wonder it is so tired, it turns out that the hexagram needs to consume Qi.
Don't dare to start the hexagram again, put away the gestures.
But when I thought that there were only ten trigrams a day, and these ten trigrams were not allowed, only three trigrams were spiritual, and I was both disappointed and excited.
The disappointment is because he has forgotten too much, and the memory has always been foggy and blurry, and the excitement is because he finally has the means to use Qi.
