Chapter 176: The Essence of Pure Heart
In the broken wooden thatched hut, the sunlight shines through the blackened wooden railings dyed by the four seasons, and the muddy floor must be full of insects and ants if it were not for the winter time.
The man with snow-white hair lying on the bed, dry blood could be faintly seen on the collar of his chest, and although he was wearing black clothes, he could still see it clearly.
In winter, birds are scarce, and the only ones are sparrows chirping non-stop, and I don't know how many times they have been driven by the woman, and they will still fly back soon.
Maybe the sparrows are too noisy, and the man who has been sleeping for a long time slowly opens his eyes, and the direct sunlight that breaks through the window makes him a little unable to open his eyes.
"You're awake. A melodious female voice sounded.
Li Chenfeng, who raised his hand slightly to block the light, half-squinted at the blurred figure in front of him, and waited until he got used to it before he could see the woman's face clearly.
"Qin Qi. Li Chenfeng said in a dry voice.
The woman in purple nodded happily, hurriedly helped her up, poured a glass of water intimately, and sent it to the man on the bed.
Li Chenfeng took the rough mud cup and poured it violently, the soil mixed with the smell of raw water, making him cough violently. The palm of the hand caressed behind his back slowed down the violent cough.
Loosening his viscous palm, there was blackened blood in his palm, Li Chenfeng hurriedly ran his sword qi as if he remembered something, and suddenly there was a cramping pain in his chest, and he coughed up a mouthful of black blood.
Qin Qi took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood off it, and looked at the man's pale face, feeling a little distressed in his heart.
The inexplicable disappearance of the sword qi made Li Chenfeng a little incredible, and he was really unwilling to raise the sword qi again, but was stopped by the voice at the door.
"If you don't want to die, stop!" Old man Gu came from outside the door with a warning voice.
Seeing that the old man with the highest strength came, Li Chenfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but speak: "What's wrong with my body, why can't I feel the sword qi of the past, is it that I have been abolished?"
Old man Gu shook his head and said, "It's not waste, but it's almost the same, if you force your luck, the sword qi will go retrograde, damaging the eight veins of the Qi Jing in your body!"
"Why? Why is this all of a sudden?"
"Who can be blamed for this, you can only blame yourself!" Old man Gu said mercilessly.
Li Chenfeng obviously didn't understand, raised his eyes seeking answers, and looked at the old man who was also staring at him with a pair of "unconscious" eyes.
"Bajiquan seems to be invincible to you, but it also caused you to suffer internal injuries, which is the root of the disease, and then you fought the enemy and forcibly lifted your qi, resulting in the leakage of sword qi in your body, and the strength left by Bajiquan forcibly collided, so the sword qi could not be used that day. ”
"But in this way, as long as you cultivate for a few days, it is good to melt away your strength, and in the end, what destroys you is that you return to the battlefield, and use the moves you don't know where to learn, and forcibly rush out, and the price in exchange is naturally magnified countless times!"
Qin Qi felt a little guilty in his eyes after hearing this, because he returned to the battle to save her. Part of the reason why it ended up like this was because of her.
Hearing the result, there was not much unusual, and he looked at the old man who hated iron and steel: "Then there is no chance to recover, I can't use a sword in my life." ”
Old man Gu, who shook his head and shook his head, let out a long sigh and put away the blame look.
"It's hard to say, if ordinary people are like this, their meridians will be exhausted early, but this is not the case with you, but the internal trauma left by this retrograde is not so easy to treat, external injuries are easy to injure!"
Qin Qi could see the disappointment flashing in Li Chenfeng's eyes, and couldn't help but speak: "Is there no way at all?"
Old man Gu had just raised the gourd to his mouth, so he had no choice but to put it down, knocked on the door of his head and said, "There is one..."
Not only was the woman's face happy, but even Li Chenfeng was hopeful, and blurted out: "What way?"
"It's a simple method, but it's a little hard to do!"
"Can you not go around the pass!" Li Chenfeng said dissatisfied.
"Pure Heart!"
For Li Chenfeng, who didn't understand the four characters at all, with a puzzled look, a woman with a slight glow should know a thing or two.
"What is the essence of a pure heart?"
"The essence of purifying the heart is a mental method, ordinary people can learn to prolong life, but it is much stronger for those who practice martial arts, it can cultivate the internal organs and five internal organs, quickly improve internal strength, and can also cultivate stubborn diseases in the body!" Qin Qi explained.
Old man Gu stroked his beard and nodded frequently, obviously quite satisfied with such a complete explanation.
"Then what did I learn from this pure heart..."
"Pure heart. Qin Qi said.
"That's right, isn't it just after learning the essence of pure heart!"
Old man Gu looked at the talented woman who was like a husband and a wife, and pouted: "I said that the method is simple, do you know where this mental method is?"
"Where?" Li Chenfeng wondered.
"Wudang!"
"Then I'll go to Wudang and get it!"
"How can it be as simple as you think, the essence of the pure heart is something that can only be practiced at the level of the head of Wudang, not to mention what you don't want to do, even if you are the head of the sect, you can't cultivate. ”
"This heart-breaking method is still so popular, old man, why don't you go and steal it for me?" Li Chenfeng instigated.
"I don't want to have anything to do with this group of bulls, besides, the strength of the current head of Wudang is not below me, and with the formation of Wudang, I will not return. Old man Gu said jealously.
After listening to this, Li Chenfeng suddenly had a sad face, if he hadn't sat cross-legged with his cheeks crossed, he could even spit out bitter water in his mouth.
"What should I do? ”
Looking at the unruly apprentice, now looking sad, the old man finally found an opportunity, poured a sip of wine, and said with a wicked smile: "I didn't want to steal, I didn't say you can't go." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Don't look at the big faction in Wudang now, but there are really few disciples, who can endure the days of fasting and fasting in the rivers and lakes now, Wudang Mountain is good, it is too clear. ”
"If you go to Wudang, you will become a disciple of Wudang, and it will not be easy to steal this book at that time. ”
Li Chenfeng's eyes lit up after hearing this: "It's really a method, so let's do it." ”
Qin Qi looked at the master and apprentice who hit it off, and thought to himself that it was really a crooked upper beam and a crooked lower beam.
Looking at Li Chenfeng, who had already gotten out of bed and hurriedly put on his shoes, the old man said, "I won't go with you..."
When the words fell, the shoeed arm stiffened, and he looked up at the old man with a parting face and said, "Where are you going?"
"It's time to do what you've been waiting for decades. ”
Li Chenfeng could hear the calmness in his words, and the past dodge had become decisive.
"You've regained your sword intent?"
Old man Gu nodded, if he changed his clothes, he would have a proper demeanor.
"If I go to Wudang by myself, how will I pay it over to my little sister. Li Chenfeng thought of Jin Xiaoxi in Jincheng.
"I will take your junior sister with me on this trip and pass on her sword intent all the way! I will help you explain your affairs clearly. ”
Li Chenfeng could barely hear the heavy words of parting, and wanted to find clues from the old man's eyes, but he really couldn't see through those eyes.
"Okay, leave early, I should leave when I'm done!"
After the old man finished speaking, he shook the gourd and walked out, turning his back freely, not knowing what kind of appearance he had.
"Old man!" Li Chenfeng shouted.
Old man Gu stopped and didn't turn around.
"Don't die..."
"Stinky boy!" said the old man with a smirk, and walked out of the mud-brick courtyard, the sound of horses' hooves disappearing in the distance.
Retracting his gaze from outside the hospital, Li Chenfeng, who was a little reluctant, was stunned for a while, and then remembered the woman who was still standing next to him, looked up at the beautiful face and said: "I should also go to Wudang Mountain, now that my skills are lost, if you have any other purpose, you have to wait for me to get the gist of Qingxin." ”
For this indifferent statement, the woman was not angry, the tiger teeth exposed under her lips were obviously in a good mood, and under Li Chenfeng's incomprehensible doubts, she hugged this pretentious man.
"I said, I'm only interested in you!"
After struggling several times without success, Li Chenfeng, who was unable to break free, could only accept it calmly, and said with a wry smile: "I'm going to Wudang Mountain, you can't come with me." ”
Qin Qi nodded his head, obviously just to walk with Li Chenfeng.
"How can Wudang Mountain accept women, although Dao Gu has it, she is in the nunnery, beauty, are you thinking about the wrong place. ”
"You saved me, I always have to repay the favor, now you are a hot big man in the rivers and lakes, if you meet an enemy and are slaughtered by a nobody, wouldn't you be laughed at by someone, I can protect you if I accompany you." ”
Li Chenfeng, who finally broke free from the shackles, looked at the hotly dressed woman, and imagined the moisture in his words, and he didn't know who would provoke right and wrong along the way.
