Chapter 14: Eternal Secret
All the hustle and bustle of this world fell silent as night fell.
In the Xuanyuan Temple, Xiao Yi helped the master back to the room and sat down on the couch. Only then did he notice that Master's beard was white, and his old face was full of relaxation and exhaustion.
Master's steps are a little faltering, Master's arms are trembling, Master's back is still straight, but it is like a lonely tree on a cliff, but it is so lonely to stand proudly.
Holding the master's arm, Xiao Yi slowly crossed the aura into the master's body.
Daoist Qingyun took a slow breath and opened his eyes.
In front of the main hall, the gray face of the Qingyun Daoist had improved, and a faint flush surged up his thin cheeks.
"Xiao Yi, what you have injected into the master's body is different from the inner family's true qi......"
"Don't worry! Xiaoyi, Master is much better now!"
"Master, Xiao Yi still has aura in his body, this is aura! Master! I will use aura to protect my heart for Master, I can do it......"
Xiaoyi's tears couldn't stop falling "pop, snap".
In the divine consciousness, the vitality in Master's body receded like a tide. He desperately tried his best to slowly pass his aura into the master's body along the meridians.
With the continuous influx of spiritual energy, the nourished internal organs gradually slowed down the exhaustion, and Qingyun Daochang's face softened a lot.
Looking at Xiao Yi's face full of tears, Qingyun Dao Chang said with pity: "Okay! You have too much aura, and you can't stand it as a teacher." You see, it's much better to be a teacher, so let's take a break!"
Xiao Yi saw that there was a hint of rosy on the master's face, and hurriedly stopped.
Seeing that the disciple was obedient, Qingyun said slowly with a relieved tone: "It's just that day and night are separated, today's Xiaoyi is very different from the past, what is the reason?
"Ahh......h
"Hehe!" Qingyun Dao Chang's heart was nourished by Xiao Yi's spiritual power, and his spirit was much better. He chuckled and said, "Don't be too busy talking about it, you stink to death." First go wash and change your clothes. Also, there is mutton sent by Lao Lu in the room, which was stewed last night, you go and heat it up, and you and I will talk while eating! Don't forget my wine gourd. β
Seeing the master like this, Xiao Yi's worried mind also let go a lot, and he ran out in response. When he arrived at the stove room, he saw the mutton stewed in the pot, he lit the firewood and threw it under the stove, then fetched a basin of water, stripped it off, and washed it in the courtyard. Rubbing off the oil sludge on his body, washing it with soap, rinsing it with water, changing into new clothes and cloth shoes, finding a belt to tie his hair at will, a young man with clear eyebrows appeared in the Xuanyuan Temple under the moonlit night. The clothes and shoes also fit, and it is also a loss to the people in Taiping Town.
A small handful of Qiankun bags were hung around his neck, and when he saw that the mutton cooked on the stove was already boiling, he hurriedly put it in a basin and sent it to the master.
Looking at the apprentice who was brought up with one hand, Qingyun Dao Chang's expression was full of reluctance and pity.
A small pot, bowls and chopsticks were placed on a wooden table on the couch, and they also sat cross-legged opposite the master.
"Master, give you wine, drink it slowly!"
"Little One, let's eat it while it's hot!"
In response, Xiao Yi hurriedly picked up a piece of meat and ate it with a delicious appearance, but in his heart, he felt that the meat had lost its usual taste tonight, and if he ate a little more, the master would be a little happier!
Qingyun Daoist held a wine gourd in his hand, but did not drink it, but just looked at Xiao Yi's eating appearance lovingly.
Xiao Yi also had something in his heart, so he didn't vomit or feel unhappy, so while eating, he told the master in detail everything he encountered after going to Lao Lu's place yesterday.
When talking about the experience of eating fruits, Daoist Qingyun stroked his beard lightly and rejoiced for his disciples: "This is cutting hair and washing the marrow! Countless people have cultivated all their lives, and they can't cross the moat, but with a small fruit, they can actually pass through the meridians, open the entrance, and change their bones. This is a big opportunity for Xiao Yi!Hehe! Congratulations for Xiao Yi!" After speaking, Mei Zizi took a sip of wine.
With the master to solve his doubts, Xiao Yi also has a little more understanding of the unbearable pain. He took out the Qiankun bag and took out the contents from the Qiankun bag for the master.
Looking at Xiao Yi's unbelievable methods, Daoist Qingyun also trembled with excitement, and hurriedly asked what was going on.
Xiao Yi was busy explaining to the master the wonderful use of divine consciousness and the scene in the Qiankun bag.
"Hehe, what a trick in your sleeves!
Xiao said the connection between the aura formed in his body and the Xuanyuan formula. And asked, "Master, what is generated by internal strength is true qi, and what is in my body is spiritual qi, why?"
"Master doesn't understand either!, isn't the Xuanyuan mantra really something that can be cultivated by a mortal body in the flesh?" Qingyun Dao Chang sighed faintly.
"By the way, Master, not only does this Qiankun bag have to be opened with divine sense, but this jade slip can also be seen with divine sense. Xiao Yi said impatiently.
"Oh! I also practice the five senses and six senses in Taoism and Jianghu martial arts. The five senses refer to rigpa, initiation, similarity, dissociation, and ultimate awareness, and the six senses refer to the eyes, ears, tongue, body, nose, and mind. Those with advanced skills have a perception of being around them beyond ordinary people, but they are not as wonderful as Xiao Yi's divine sense, this is the method of the immortal family!"
"Master! I remember you always said that immortal cultivators must have immortal roots, I have practiced the Xuanyuan mantra for many years and have not entered the path, which means that I don't have immortal roots, can that amethyst fruit make people born immortal roots? If so, when the fruit is ripe, I pick it and give it to Master, wouldn't Master be like Xiaoyi!"
Qingyun Dao Chang smiled: "It may not be so simple. If there is a fairy root, there is it, and if there is not, there is nothing. It is congenital, how can it be reversed the day after tomorrow, let the governor pass and become acquired, and the entrance is open. The innate true qi of a martial arts master is the innate yang ancestor qi of cultivating oneself, and it cannot communicate with heaven and earth. It is completely different from you using the aura of heaven and earth for your own use! This is mysterious, and you are also ignorant as a teacher! What does the jade slip say?"
"Master, I'll tell you what the jade slips have recorded!" Xiao Yi told Master the contents of the three jade slips separately. Qingyun Dao Chang listened attentively with great interest.
When Xiao Yi talked about the magical records in "Miscellaneous Notes on Journey to the East", Qingyun Dao couldn't stop nodding his head in admiration, and when he talked about the genius earth treasure and elixir in "Hundred Herbs", he was already obsessed with it.
When Xiao Yi said the last words of Xuanyuan Zhenren Jade Slip, Qingyun Dao Chief's face glowed with a strange brilliance, and his expression sank into solemnity, and after learning everything in the Jade Slip, he was stunned for a long time.
Feeling the disciple's worries, Qingyun Dao let out a long sigh, held his long hair in his hand, and said meaningfully to Xiao Yi: "I have pursued the way of heaven for my teacher all my life, and today I know that the way of heaven that I seek for my teacher is actually the way of immortals. Alasββ! and what is the way of immortals? The way of immortals is the way of reversity, competing with the heavens for longevity and the earth for profit. Under the way of heaven, all things are dogs, those who follow it prosper, those who go against it die, and the way of heaven and the way of immortals are contrary but also inherited. In the immortal road, find a trace of vitality in the heavenly way, and under the heavenly way, there is no end to a perseverance. This road is ethereal! This road is difficult! I think about it on my pillow at night, and I am busy waking up before the spring flowers, but I don't know ...... Flowers bloom and fall in spring, and the red dust is light ......"
After sighing, Qingyun Dao Chang's eyes were far away, and his expression was indifferent. Regarding the Dao Fall of Xuanyuan Patriarch, he didn't ask about it. Perhaps, everything is self-explanatory.
He knew that although the master did not have his own opportunity, his understanding of the path of cultivation and this transcendent state of mind were what he did not have.
"Xiao Yi, do you know what is the most proud thing in this life as a teacher?" Qingyun Dao Chang looked at Xiao Yi with a warm face and a twisted beard. Seeing that the disciple shook his head, he chuckled and picked up the gourd, raised his head and took a sip of wine, his eyes flashed with thousands of emotions!
"The most proud thing for a teacher is to accept the little one as an apprentice!" After saying that, Qingyun Dao Chang laughed, and the old laughter exuded a kind of release, revealing a sense of relief, and a point of understanding.
"I have been a teacher for a long time. Today, there is a little one for the teacher to reveal the ignorance of a lifetime, fortunately!
Qingyun Dao's voice did not fall, his tone changed, and he said in a deep voice: "There are a few words for the teacher, Xiao Yi must remember them." β
When Xiao Yi heard this, he was busy listening.
"The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, no matter the world, no matter the rivers and lakes, no matter your future path to cultivating immortals, the trend of people abound. Therefore, Xiao Yi must remember: the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. You have immortal cultivation skills and treasures, don't show off in front of people, remember!"
"Master, these spells and treasures are something that ordinary people can't cultivate?" Although Xiao Yi knew that what Master said was reasonable, he thought that if he had the ability in the future, would he still be afraid of snooping little people!
Qingyun Dao Chief Yin Yin said: "Manpower is sometimes poor, and tigers also have time to nap. Regardless of whether you are just a beginner now, and your skills are low, even if you are strong in magic in the future, what will you do in the face of people who are faint in the world? β
Xiao Yi knew that it was powerful, so he hurriedly knelt on the couch and saluted the master: "Xiao Yi remember the master's teachings!"
Qingyun Dao Chang bowed his head to signal Xiao Yi to come, his voice showed a trace of exhaustion, and said: "Master is happy today! Xiao Yi, use your Xuanyuan Jue's mental method to demonstrate the Xuanyuan Sword Technique, show it to the teacher!"
How about the Xuanyuan mantra and the Xuanyuan swordsmanship together? Xiao Yi hurriedly responded, jumped off the bed, thought about it, he picked up the golden dragon sword in the Qiankun bag, checked it in his hand, and said excitedly: "This is the ancestor's thing, so I will use this fairy treasure to practice." β
"Okay! As a teacher, let's see Xiao Yi perform my Xuanyuan Guan's real immortal swordsmanship and go to the courtyard. Qing Yunzi's expression was a little excited, and a strange rosy appeared on his cheeks. It's just that Xiao Yi didn't think much about it in a hurry, and came to the courtyard with the master.
The bright moon is in the sky, and the Xuanyuan view is silver.
Xiao Yi ran the Xuanyuan formula, and the little aura in his body ran with the pulsation of heaven and earth.
Holding the golden dragon sword, he saluted his master, and the Xuanyuan sword technique unfolded from his hand like a flowing water.
The aura slowly surged in the meridians, and it followed the arm into the sword body, and the golden dragon sword, which was only a foot short, suddenly emitted a three-foot golden sword light.
As the sword move was unleashed, the sword was swallowed, forming a golden waterfall around the little one, and then turned into a golden light to cover him. In the blink of an eye, the sword exploded like snow, jumping and flashing in all directions. There was a "whoosh" sound all around, and sparks splashed on the brick walls around the courtyard, leaving shallow sword marks.
The small figure is light and agile, the golden sword light flies up and down in his hand, and the original ordinary sword moves have now evolved into golden dragons, flying out of the Dao sword qi and layers of golden rays with the front and back of the body.
The strange python turned over and followed the dragon into the sea, the rise of the small dance, a Milky Way upside down, the golden mangs all over the ground suddenly rolled up the stars, and the countless sword qi that converged into the Milky Way rushed forward, "boom" There was a loud bang, and the blue brick courtyard wall was pierced through the big hole.
Xiao Yi was horrified and ecstatic in his heart. Is this the power of his own swordsmanship? Is this the swordsmanship of the immortals? Overjoyed, the last five forms of the Xuanyuan swordsmanship came to his mind, and he couldn't help but silently recite the ninth form of the swordsmanship in his heart, the mantra of the immortals guiding the way.
Suddenly, he felt a trace of abnormality, the golden dragon sword was beating in his hand, and the spiritual power in his body surged towards the sword body, and his body suddenly became empty, his consciousness was blurred for a while, his mind was dizzy, and between his breaths, the spiritual power on his body had been consumed cleanly, and there was nothing left.
Xiao Yi secretly exclaimed: "Not good!" Then his whole body softened, his heart was in a trance, and he collapsed to the ground. The little sword immediately stopped beating, and fell out of his hand with a 'clang'.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on his back in fright, and Xiao Yi secretly said that it was so dangerous! Presumably his skills were not enough! This latter five-style swordsmanship should not be something that he could perform now.
He struggled to get up, thinking that he had worried the master again, and looked at it with some anxiety.
The master sat on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, his expression serene, and his face covered with a layer of blue gray. Only the silver-white beard fluttered gently in the moonlight......
Xiao Yi's face was stunned, and a cold chill surged into his heart, and his expression stiffened in an instant.
"Master......?"
His voice trembled, and Xiao Yi called out to Master softly.
His feet were as heavy as lead, and he moved in front of the master with difficulty, and knelt down with "poof".
Xiao Yi's mouth was half open, his eyes were red, his panicked eyes flashed a hint of luck, his hands trembled, and he hurriedly grabbed the master's wrist vein.
Like a Master in meditation, he has no life...... Master is gone...... Master is gone......
It was as if a burst of thunder ran over his heart, and under the stinging pain in his heart, a stream of blood erupted from his small mouth, and then his eyes went black, and he fell to the ground......
