Chapter 5: Stripping the Pole and Recovering (5)
Gao Fenglin was surprised:
"Figured out?"
Medicine King Road:
"That's right, the exercises you are practicing are the supreme heart of Taoism, in this world, only you and your master practice, but your master has not yet cultivated to the top, so it is not so easy to completely open up your eight veins of the Qi Sutra and integrate the exercises.

At the beginning, Yuan Chengzi did not personally teach him martial arts, but only instructed his disciple Dan Qingzi Mo Zhengxu to teach him some of the superficial martial arts foundation of Sanqingguan. Dan Qingzi saw that the master had not accepted apprentices for a long time, but he only said that this little junior disciple had a special identity, and he was very attentive when teaching, and he did not dare to slack off. With the guidance of famous teachers and his own natural talent, Gao Fenglin has made rapid progress in just one year. Yuan Chengzi saw that this little apprentice was really an unborn genius, so in the second year of Gao Fenglin's entry, he personally taught him martial arts. And Gao Fenglin did not disappoint Yuan Chengzi, in just three years, he integrated all the martial arts of Sanqingguan, and at the age of sixteen or seventeen, his martial arts cultivation was not weaker than that of his senior brother Mo Zhengxu. After weighing the pros and cons, Yuan Chengzi decided to teach Gao Fenglin the Sanqingguan Town School's peerless "Tiangang Treasure Book", Yuan Chengzi did not explain to Gao Fenglin the origin of this "Tiangang Treasure Book", nor did he explain to him that this treasure book is the treasure of the Sanqingguan Town School, Gao Fenglin only regarded it as the master to teach him one of his many martial arts, and practiced according to his words, three years of small success, five years of great success. But this treasure book has a porch that has never been broken through, and this porch is not a natural breakthrough under the cultivation of many years, and it takes very specific conditions to break through the final porch, to achieve the realm of water and fire, dragon and tiger rendezvous.
Yuan Chengzi has practiced the "Tiangang Treasure Book" for more than 40 years, but he has never been able to break through the last entrance, which can be regarded as the biggest regret in his life. The name of the treasure book is Tiangang, since it was created by Yuan Tiangang, since worshipping under the medicine king Sun Simiao, Yuan Tiangang entered the door, he was in the Taoist Zhou Tiangong, the inner Dan Gong has been enlightened, and cultivated the three flowers to gather the top, the realm of the five qi dynasty, after his later years, he will learn all his life and what he has read through the "Tao Te Ching", integrated into one, and created the "Tiangang Treasure Book" this strange book, this book is the treasure of the Sanqing Guan Zhen School, and can not be practiced without teaching. Although Mo Zhengxu started early, he had no immortal fate and no chance to be awarded this book, Gao Fenglin was favored by Yuan Chengzi instead, and he was destined to cultivate, and the creation of this was not enough for outsiders.
Gao Fenglin spent five years to repair the treasure book, Yuan Chengzi counted the days, Gao Fenglin to Sanqingguan is exactly ten years, since this last entrance is not so easy to break through, it is better to send Gao Fenglin back to Xuzhou, maybe this time down the mountain, get the opportunity, you can break through this last entrance, and achieve good things. Unexpectedly, it was only a year later, and he received the news that his apprentice was seriously injured, and his life was not long, so Yuan Chengzi hurried to the Medicine King Valley, not only caring about the apprentice's life, but also a great opportunity.
The Tiangang Treasure Book is derived from the Tao Te Ching, and the idea of the Tao Te Ching is the Tao of Nature. "Tao" is the mother of the beginning of all things in heaven and earth, the opposition and unity of yin and yang are the essential embodiment of all things, and the opposite of things is the law of the evolution of all things. When your martial arts reach the ultimate realm, if you want to break through, you will be the opposite of the extreme, and be eaten by it, so when you practice the "Tiangang Treasure Book", your own martial arts are approaching the extreme, and after you practice it, you will encounter a bottleneck, and there will be no progress, and this bottleneck is the entrance contained in the treasure book. Does that mean that this martial arts can no longer be broken through? This is not the case, and the Tao Te Ching has a cloud: Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings depend on. Blessing and misfortune are interdependent and mutually transformative, martial arts break through their own limits, that is a blessing, but this blessing is not easy to obtain, it must come from disaster. Why?
When Yuan Tiangang created the treasure book, he followed the scriptures, the extremes of things must be reversed, if you want to practice, you will go crazy, the whole body bursts and dies, the heart needs to have "quiet and inaction", in order to practice, but when the practice is extreme, it will come to the end, but this is not the real end, on the contrary, Taoist thought, is to do nothing, to achieve the realm of returning to simplicity, that is, the endless realm. If you want to break through this threshold and reach the realm of inaction, you must transform from calamity. In order to break through this heavy barrier, we must "live" from "death".
Yuan Chengzi is in this word of life and death, failed to understand the mystery, so he could not break through the entrance, this time Gao Fenglin was seriously injured and died, perhaps it is to confirm the mystery of the word life and death.
On the evening of this day, Gao Fenglin came out of the barrel, and after dinner in the evening, he went back to his room to rest. But after a while, Yuan Chengzi came to Gao Fenglin's room, Gao Fenglin respectfully invited the master into the room, Yuan Chengzi said to Gao Fenglin:
"Lin'er, I have something to tell you. ā
"The master teaches, and the disciple listens. ā
Yuan Chengzi nodded with a smile and said:
"Lin'er, do you know what kind of martial arts I taught you in the end?"
"The master passed on my "Tiangang Treasure Book". ā
"Then do you know what kind of martial arts this treasure book is?"
"I don't know. ā
"This "Tiangang Treasure Book" was handed down by your ancestor Yuan Tiangang, and it is the treasure of the Sanqing View and Shock, and it cannot be practiced unless it is in charge. ā
"Ah!" Gao Fenglin was taken aback.
So Yuan Chengzi made the ins and outs of the "Tiangang Treasure Book" clear with Gao Fenglin, and the reason why he passed on this magic skill was to let him shoulder the heavy responsibility of passing on the Sanqingguan martial arts.
"It's just that the disciple is now losing his internal strength, how can he take on this heavy responsibility. ā
"About the "Tiangang Treasure Book", back then, your Tiangang patriarch had left a few words of revelation, which were detailed for the teacher until now, until this time you came to the Medicine King Valley for medical treatment, and you knew that it was this revelation," Yuan Chengzi paused, "The revelation is like this: 'Fortune and misfortune are lurking, and misfortune and fortune are relied on. Then the gentleman dies, and then dies and is reborn. If you want to succeed, you need to go south to the end. āā
"What does this revelation mean?" Gao Fenglin asked.
"This revelation is closely related to the cultivation of the "Tiangang Treasure Book" and breaking through the final entrance, but it is a pity that the teacher is stupid, and he has not figured out the mystery of this for more than 40 years, until a few days ago I learned that you came to the Medicine King Valley for medical treatment, I thought that the Zhongnan in this revelation may not refer to the Three Qingguan, but to the Medicine King Valley. ā
"Medicine King Valley, master, do you mean that we need the help of Medicine King Valley to practice the martial arts on this treasure book?"
"When the **** first arrived here, you were already on the verge of dying, I found for your pulse, although your pulse was weak, and the person was unconscious, but I found that there was a breath of qi stored in your dantian, I was going to guide it out, but I found that all the true qi that was scattered was attracted by the gas in your dantian, and it was like dripping water into the sea, and disappeared without a trace. In the past few days, when the medicine king diagnosed you, he found that the qi of the dantian was getting bigger and bigger, but your meridians were sealed and could not release it on their own. ā
Gao Fenglin asked again:
"If this qi doesn't draw it out, will I be eaten by it?"
Yuan Chengzi said:
"I have discussed with the Medicine King for a few days, and I think that the qi in this dantian will be full in a few days, and if I don't let it out at that time, I am afraid that it will hurt myself again. Tomorrow, after the Medicine King activates the twelve meridians for you, the two of us will work together to help you. ā
The two discussed until the third watch, which is a blessing or a curse, it is really unpredictable, if this true qi is allowed to swell, Gao Fenglin will still be in danger of his life at that time, and there is only one way to go now, there is no other way.
