Chapter 22 Return to the Origin, Guard the Heart
"Nian'an, when I practiced swordsmanship, I tried to memorize the first five pages of this book. ”
Previously, Nian An had been reading this book of thick exercises given to him by Yu Daoren, but the four simple words in the book made Nian An breathless.
The sword is hidden
The rest of his life only let him read the first five pages of the book, but Nian An still felt that this was a day worth celebrating, so he first went to the clear water pool in the Taoist temple to clean his hands, and then knelt down on the broken pu mat to worship the Taoist temple and Nantian, and then returned to the dirt slope, spread out the book and read it seriously.
The sword was thick enough to cover thousands of pages, and each page was densely filled with small block characters and annotations in different handwritings like a heavenly book.
The almost blank pages made Nian'an's scalp tingle, but he still gritted his teeth and read them word by word.
Then the words in the boy's eyes began to weaken, writhing, jumping.
The eyes are not at all as fast as the mind.
But his hand turned the page anyway.
Then came the second page
Page 3
......
A pillar of incense at the time
The ghost of Nian'an made the gods almost turn over the five pages of Taoist treasures with tens of thousands of words.
He looked up and looked around, Yu Daochang was still sleeping with his feet crossed, and the tips of his shoes hadn't had time to change direction.
The crooked-necked tree shook in the wind, and a flying leaf fell on the tip of the Taoist's nose like a mockery.
Nian An lowered his head and sank into the pages of the book again, as if he was being pulled by an invisible force, and the familiar feeling poured into his mind again.
Reading books, turning pages, and sticking incense.
The boy tried to read it silently in his heart.
As if something had been shattered, he heard a crisp "click" in his heart.
He can memorize it!
Beads of sweat on Nian An's head fell down his cheeks, didn't he know how well he remembered?
Something wrong with this book?
Nian An turned over the cover and looked at it, and the four words hidden in the sword were clearly printed on the blue cover, revealing a different kind of brilliance in the sun.
On the first five pages of the Tao, it is recorded how to exhale and exhale.
It is a mellow, plump, spitting and sucking, asking for a favor.
For the rest of his life, let him go back and remember it slowly.
Nian An tried to "remember seven days".
......
On the first day of the seventh month, the boy tried to tattoo the copper coin under the locust tree after reciting the essentials of breathing.
Today, there are a total of 732 thorns, and one thorn, the "Frost Sword", entered the copper coin eye.
The boy was so excited that he told the news for the rest of his life.
The Taoist crooked his mouth and mocked, "What about the remaining seven hundred and thirty-one thorns?"
Nian An plucked up the courage to tell the Taoist chief that it had taken him seven days to finally memorize the first five pages of the Daozang.
The Taoist snorted with a smile on his face: "The qualifications are good, I spent three days on the first five pages of Daoren." ”
What the boy didn't tell the Taoist chief was that he might have only spent a pillar of incense.
It's just that the books have been memorized, and the boy hasn't even read the contents of the aisle clearly.
So what he did in the first seven days was to force his mind and copy the first five pages word by word to check whether he really had his back right.
Word for word.
So he really only spent a pillar of incense.
The Taoist said, "You can now learn from the book and practice breathing." ”
So the boy spent another seven days practicing the method of tuning called unity.
......
Seven days later, although his breath was still jerky, it faintly began to have a taste of unity, neutral and peaceful.
Although the breath was even, the young man's whole person was in an extremely excited state.
It was as if he had opened the door to a whole new world for himself.
It was as if the ice suddenly broke through, and the floating nerve nodes touched the void star.
Nian An suddenly found that his always dull self could actually use an unbelievable speed to comprehend this sword.
The Taoist was holding a wooden stick to drive two groups of ants to fight at this moment, and he turned his head to look at the young man.
"If you don't want to die, you can try the first part of the Daozang on page 6, Guiyuan, which will teach you how to guard your heart. ”
The sun was shining just right overhead, and the boy silently recited his name, and without hesitation, he turned the sixth page.
He calmed down and swept it over with a pillar of incense.
.......
The corners of Yu Sheng's mouth curled slightly, and he half turned his head to look at the young man, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
The boy placed Dozo on the ground and closed his eyes.
Lip Qi: "Return to the source, righteousness." ”
......
......
"Guangxing, ascend one. "Lips closed
Nian An suddenly felt his whole body sink and was dragged into a familiar darkness.
This seems to be the place he had been when he wrote down his nine thousand lives that night. I came here that day with a single thought, but now I am relying on the mantra of the Guiyuan chapter and the method of vomiting newly learned in the past few days.
The boy follows the familiar direction from the top of the head, through the throat, to the chest, to the lower abdomen, and then turns back up to the atrium.
The front of the atrium was still as annoying as the memory, and Nian An tried to extend her consciousness, but it was as if it was obscured by a thick night.
The boy was not reconciled, he gritted his teeth and tried to touch it.
A cloud of white flying flakes seemed to enter from his heavenly spirit cover, and along the path of the young man just now, it seemed to come to the young man's consciousness in the dark.
The young man remembered that Bai Xu had helped him suppress his unspeakable anger that day, so he tried to say hello to Bai Xu.
The flyer shook and seemed to be smiling and nodding.
......
The next moment,
A cold and ruthless sword intent pierced the darkness.
If a sword pierced through the atrium, a sharp and heart-piercing pain came from Nian'an's chest.
The sound of pain rolled in his throat, and he didn't have time to break through.
The boy lost consciousness and fell diagonally to the ground.
......
The Taoist swept away the ants in front of him, ran forward, tore off his sleeve robe and pressed it on Nian'an's chest.
......
The sun and the moon rotate three times.
When Nian An woke up, he found himself lying in the back room of the small courtyard in Beicheng.
The smell of fish soup came from the stove outside, and the boy tried to open his mouth to speak, but found that his mouth was so dry that his throat seemed to be burning.
He tried to move his limbs, and the alternating heat and cold pain seemed to tear him apart.
Footsteps were heard outside.
The boy hesitated, trying to close his eyelids.
"Are you awake?" Qiuqiu bit her lip tightly and walked into the house with fish soup.
Looking at the young man's flickering eyelids, she tried her best to hide it, and the joy and anger on her face exploded all at once.
Nian An had to open his eyes and nodded hesitantly.
The girl pouted, and as if angry, she slapped the bowl of fish soup on the small table beside the boy's bed.
"Can you still move your hands?"
Nian An tried to stretch his hand towards the bowl, and the beads of sweat on his face instantly hung up.
The girl was so angry that she raised her hand to pat his forearm down, but when she was about to touch it, she quickly unloaded her strength, and gently pinched his wrist and carefully put it back into the bedding.
"I'll feed you. ”
......
......
It took half an hour, and the boy finally swallowed all the fish soup with great difficulty.
Qiuqiu got up and took the empty bowl out, and after a while, she moved the reclining chair in the yard and put it at the head of Nian'an's bed.
"I'm leaving, you can rest first, the layman building will help you ask for leave." ”
The girl took a deep breath, the sound of heavy breathing so clear in the silence of the room.
The door was gently shut.
In the silence, the boy spread his whole body there, and tried to flip it with great difficulty.
A tear slid down her cheek and into her mouth.
"It just so happens that the fish soup is a little light. ”
The boy tugged at the corners of his mouth and laughed.
......
He tried again, and then recited the first five pages of the Daozang that should have been engraved in his heart.
My mind went blank.
Nothing!
The flying flamm not only pierced his chest, but also shattered all of his memories of Daozang.
The boy pursed his lower lips and blew into the shredded hair on the top of his head.
The breath was disordered and disorderly, and it seemed that the Guiyuan Tuna had also dissipated in a coma.
Nian An touched the gauze on his chest, and finally knew what it was that was dead......
