Chapter 14: The Needle for Sewing Clothes
Soon, the wind-like Gao Jie returned home.
Gao was busy preparing dinner at this time, and when he saw his son coming back, he was about to speak, but Gao Jie preemptively said: "Mother, give me two needles for you to sew clothes!"
Although Gao didn't know what Gao Jie wanted to do with the sewing needle, she had always been very relieved to her son, and without saying a word, she went to the inner room to get two one-inch long needles and handed them to Gao Jie.
Gao Jie said, "Thank you, mother!" and turned around and ran out again.
Gao chased to the door, and wanted to tell his son to come back early for dinner, but as far as the eye could see, there was still Gao Jie's figure, only to see a slip of dust rising on the mountain road, as if a fast horse was galloping past.
Seeing Gao Jie go and return in such a short time, Li Hongji and Li Guo were not only amazed and envious of his speed, but also strengthened their determination to learn the immortal method, and looked at Gao Jie in front of them.
Gao Jie hid a sewing needle in his hand, remembering the tragic scene of practicing with the mysterious old man in his previous life, for fear that these two boys would not be able to survive halfway, and felt that they had to be vaccinated in advance.
Therefore, Gao Jie solemnly said loudly: "If you suffer hardship, you will become a master!" You should have all heard this old saying. If you want to practice divine skills, you must first endure what ordinary people can't bear, tell me loudly, do you have faith?!"
Li Hongji and Li Guo thought that they could cultivate divine skills, raised their eyebrows, how could they think more about what the cultivation process would be, the two of them looked excited, raised their small fists and shouted: "Have confidence!
"What do you do if you're tired?"
"Patience!"
"What do you do if it hurts?"
"Keep enduring!!"
Gao Jie saw that the two of them shouted slogans, and made up their minds, and they were extremely fanatical in their hearts, so they felt a little at ease.
He said loudly: "You two close your eyes, sit cross-legged, keep your dantian, and meditate. Wait a minute, don't move whatever happens, you know?"
"Understood!" The two elementary schools have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and they don't need to teach them what they mean to keep the dantian, so they immediately closed their eyes and began to meditate cross-legged.
Gao Jie's voice came from Li Hongji's ears: "Urge the qi of the dantian, go up along the Du pulse and the foot sun meridian, condense the qi in the head of the Shenting acupoint, and start to guard the ......" His luck went up, according to what Gao Jie said, the qi guarded the Shenting acupoint, and everything went smoothly.
Then I heard Gao Jie say: "Now, the most important step in cultivation starts with the fat man. If you feel some pain in the Shenting acupoint, you must endure it!"
When Li Hongji heard this, he was still thinking about why "there will be some pain in the Shenting acupoint", and he felt a sharp pain coming from the Shenting acupoint, and he shivered all over his body, as if he had been struck by lightning, screamed, and jumped up from the ground.
Gao Jie knew that he would have such a reaction, so he pressed him hard with both hands and shouted loudly: "I can't bear this pain, how can I become a human being?!
Li Hongji was so painful that he was about to run away, but when he heard this, he hesitated, gritted his teeth, and finally sat down slowly and quietly.
Yes, he has always been timid, cowardly, and clumsy, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have pursuits, dreams, and doesn't want to be strong. He also didn't want to be bullied by the leper dog forever, he didn't want to be looked down upon by the people of the Li family who moved to Li Jiqian's village, and he didn't want his father Li Shouzhong to be disappointed all the time.
He also wants to be strong.
Seeing Li Hongji sit down again, his fat face twitching from pain, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, Gao Jie breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with relief.
What he was most worried about was this Li Hongji, for fear that he would not be able to endure the severe pain and give up, so he operated on him first. I thought it would take a lot of effort, but who knew that I just said a cliché that I thought was not nutritious, and the fat man stubbornly held on, which surprised him very much.
Li Guo on the side, after hearing his uncle's scream, secretly opened one eye, only to see a bright needle stuck in Li Hongji's head that he didn't know where it came from, and the whole person trembled in pain and sweated profusely. His thin body also trembled, and when he saw Li Hongji after Gao Jie finished speaking, he reluctantly insisted on sitting down, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, and also chose to insist, waiting for the severe pain to come to him.
He is not as cowardly and timid as Li Hongji, and his head is also good, but because he has a lively mind and lacks qualitative character, he is not ideal in learning martial arts and literature. He never flinched in a fight, but he always couldn't win, but he was also very hurt in his heart, and he always dreamed that one day he could practice magic skills, knock down and fear those who bullied him, and be a real man, so that his grandfather Li Shouzhong was impressed by him and recognized himself as his own grandson.
Therefore, when the opportunity is presented in front of him, he will never give it up.
Li Guo's every move is in Gao Jie's eyes, he knows this in his heart, knowing that Li Guo's temperament is strong and will not retreat because of pain, Gao Jie is still confident in this.
So Gao Jie took out another sewing needle and inserted it into Li Guo's Shenting acupoint.
Sure enough, Li Guo just twitched, didn't even snort, didn't open his eyes, and stubbornly endured.
Nodding with satisfaction, Gao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, sat down slowly in front of the two, and continued to pass on the exercises: "With the breath and breathing, continue to use the qi of the dantian to ascend to protect the Shenting acupoint, and so on for three hundred times......"
The two of them did as they were told, and they felt that whenever the True Qi protected the Divine Court Acupoint, the intense pain would be relieved slightly. After realizing this, they gradually entered a state of complete cultivation, and the operation of true qi became more and more proficient, and they also adapted to the labor pains that arose from time to time at that time.
Gao Jie looked at the two of them practicing, and in his mind he seemed to see the scene of being tortured by the mysterious old man's acupuncture in his previous life. He himself is like this, one acupuncture point after another, stinging, stimulating, and slowly getting through.
He completely followed the method taught by the mysterious old man to create Li Hongji and Li Guo, looking forward to the rebirth of his two little cocoons.
He believes that the two of them, who have a strong memory, a good comprehension, and can be as calm as water as a monk, will greatly improve their abilities in the short term.
An hour passed, and after piercing the Shenting acupoint, Gao Jie stabbed the Yangbai acupoint and the eye-ming acupoint of the two again, and then looked at Li Hongji and Li Guo's sweaty clothes and their bodies began to shake a little, he knew that they had reached the limit today, so he took off the sewing needles on the heads of the two.
The severe pain disappeared, Li Hongji suddenly relaxed, and immediately collapsed to the ground, muttering in his mouth: "My mother-in-law, this is a practice, it is clearly murder!"
Li Guo opened his eyes, wiped the sweat on his face with his hand, and after feeling it, he said in surprise: "Hey, I suddenly felt my brain, how to say it, as if it had been washed by water, it was no longer as ignorant and muddy as before!"
When Li Hongji heard this, he also turned over and sat up, and after savoring it, he slowly raised his eyebrows, hugged his head and laughed: "Really, I suddenly remembered a lot of things and exercises that I couldn't remember before!"
Gao Jie was not surprised when he heard that there were effects, these were all things he had personally experienced, so he just smiled slightly, and said: "You two, after practicing this magic skill, not only will your memory be very strong, but also your comprehension and concentration will reach an incredible level, these are exactly what you lack the most! Now you have tasted a little sweetness, take your time, and get a needle every two days in the future, it is estimated that after a month, everyone will be impressed!"
Li Hongji and Li Guo had no doubts at this time, they both nodded firmly, and said in unison: "Don't worry, Gaozi, we will persevere, and we will definitely not let you down!"
Gao Jie smiled with satisfaction and put the two sewing needles in his hand into his pocket.
Li Guo saw Gao Jie put the needle away, and hurriedly asked, "Gao Zi, what kind of magic weapon did you pierce us just now?"
Gao Jie was embarrassed for a while, he didn't dare to tell the two of them, this was just a needle used by his mother to sew clothes. By the way, he suddenly remembered that his family was poor, and it seemed that his mother only had these two sewing needles, which would not be enough in the future.
So he pretended to reply mysteriously: "That's the divine needle that my master has opened, but unfortunately there are only two, and the cultivation in the future may need more divine needles." By the way, fat man, you have money in your family, and when you go back, you will ask your father for twenty or thirty needles to sew clothes, and after I go to the master to open the light, I will be able to guarantee the cultivation in the future!"
Li Hongji didn't say a word, slapped his chest loudly, and said loudly: "Don't worry, wrap it on me, I'll bring you one hundred and eighty pieces tomorrow!"
Li Guo also said: "If there is anything you need in the future, you can just say it, and the two of us promise to get it for you." Gaozi, this time it's really hard for you!"
Gao Jie smiled, waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about, we are good brothers!"
Li Hongji and Li Guo also said in unison: "Yes! We are good brothers for life!"
Seeing that the twilight was getting up, and it was almost dark, Gao Jie passed on a few more mantras to the two of them, asking them to practice according to the mantra in the past two days to consolidate today's achievements, and then said goodbye to them and went home for dinner.
When the three of them dispersed, the fog filled the air, and the night slowly shrouded the lower Donkey Mountain.
And in the depths of the bamboo forest where they had just practiced, a low voice suddenly came:
"Little Enzi, what are the three of them doing?"
"Back to the little prince, although the little one has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he has seen a lot of martial arts, but he has never seen someone like them who is practicing with a needle. I guess it's just a few country boys tossing around!"
"Hey, it's interesting! But it's so good to see them, they can get together and play every day, like brothers, I envy them!"
"The little prince has golden branches and jade leaves, brocade clothes and jade food, how can they compare. Besides, don't you have brothers and sisters?! ”
"Alas, my brothers and sisters all live on their own side, and it is rare to see each other, how can they be so close. As for my eldest brother, although he loves me the most, he is addicted to tinkering with hammers and saws all day long, and every day he only knows how to play with furniture, like a carpenter, and even his business is wasted, I am really afraid that he will be plotted by that man!"
"The little prince has been smart and ambitious since he was a child, but now there are some things that we can't interfere in, we can only silently accumulate strength, and we must not be in a hurry. It's been more than a month since we came out of the micro-service this time, and the little one is very worried about your safety, afraid that the person will come back and harm you, I think we should go back as soon as possible!"
"No, I have to look at the situation in various places and find an opportunity to tell my eldest brother, so that he can understand the people's woes and worry more about business. Besides, I'm very interested in these three little brothers, and I'm going to see their battle tomorrow!"
"Hehe, this is just some country kids' nonsense, what kind of appointments and fights, how can they get into your eyes! Although you are young, none of them are your opponents. ”
"No, I've decided, I must go and see it tomorrow, I really hope that little brother named Gao Jie can win!"
"Why do you want him to win?"
"Well, it looks pleasing to the eye, don't you think he's handsome?"
"Well, well, let's take a look in the woods next to us tomorrow. It's getting late, let's go back to the county seat!"
"Well, let's go!"
After a whisper, the two departed.
The bamboo forest fell silent again, only that night when the wind blew, the bamboo leaves swayed and rubbed, and occasionally made a rustling sound, making this quiet jungle not so deserted.
