Not only is there no method to retain vitality, but the speed of cultivation is slow and the effect is poor.

Speaking of the speed of absorbing vitality alone, it turned out to be three times the time of channeling power!

There is also the method of condensing vitality, even if he practices to the extreme, it is impossible to condense six wisps into one wisp in one day.

The speed of absorbing vitality is slow, and Chen Fu can use the guiding power to absorb it. But if the effect of condensing the vitality is poor, he will be out of luck. If he can't successfully condense it in one day, the vitality will disappear the next day, and he has to reabsorb and re-condense it, and so on, he can only stay in the first weight of the Ming Yuan Realm forever!

"No wonder Brother Ah Le didn't let him practice, the exercises of the mortal level are really ordinary. Like the guidance skills taught to me by Grandpa Song, the speed of absorbing vitality is so fast, it is not a heavenly level but also an earth-level exercise. With the comparison, Chen Fu knew the extraordinaryness of the guidance skill.

"However, there are places where this exercise can be used at the moment. Chen Fu pondered.

"Forget about the two methods of absorbing vitality and condensing vitality, the method of introducing qi into the veins can also quench the meridians, and the method of refining impurities can also make the vitality more pure, and after refining the impurities, the effect may be better. Chen Fu calculated in his heart.

"When I get up tomorrow, I guess the vitality will disappear. Chen Fu had lost hope, and fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed.

The next day, as Chen Fu expected, the vitality in the dantian disappeared again. He was still a little apprehensive, but now he was completely calm.

He figured out that the monastery exercises did not have a solution to the disappearance of vitality, and this was not a problem of the exercises themselves, but it showed that this problem was only for him. Before, it was just that he was lucky, hoping to retain his vitality by cultivating the Ming Yuan Realm exercises. Because his subconscious didn't dare to admit that there was something inexplicable in his body, which was unconsciously letting go of his vitality, or rather, sucking away his vitality.

"What the hell! vampire!" Chen Fu scolded fiercely, and his heart couldn't help but burst into flames.

"What kind of man is it to hide inside!" he continued to scold.

No wonder Chen Fu was angry, it had been nearly a month since he found out that his vitality had disappeared, and it was rare for him, an eleven-year-old boy, to endure it until now. Whoever can bear it! What's going on, I just came to the sense of qi, and I was happy for two days, and the vitality I absorbed was lost, and it was like this every day, this is not bullying!

"What is this, when did you hide in my body?" After scolding for a while, Chen Fu sighed slightly, and Chen Fu thought about it.

"It's definitely before the vitality is gone. He speculated, "The closer you get to the day your vitality disappears, the more likely it is that you will be exposed to it." ”

"What strange things have I been exposed to before that? ...... I haven't been exposed to before," Chen Fu recalled.

"Stones! The little bird's egg-like bluestone behind the waterfall! I put it in my arms that day, and then it disappeared, I thought it had fallen at the time, but now it seems that it is very likely to hide in my body!"

"Where did the stone come in? I didn't swallow it. He was a little skeptical.

"Yes, it has the ability to take away my vitality, how can it not have the ability to hide in without knowing it!" He found reasons to support his judgment.

"No matter what it is, I only have three ways to go: one is to accept my fate and let it be. The second is to get it out. The third is to find a way not to let it take away its vitality. I'm certainly not happy with the first, and there's nothing I can do about the second and third at the moment. Chen Fu thought about it, but he didn't have a clue.

"You still have to continue to cultivate, at least you can absorb vitality, refine your meridians, and make yourself gradually stronger. Having made up his mind, he went to Baizhang Cliff again.

A few days passed, counting the days, Chen Fu borrowed the first volume of "Linhai Acupuncture and Moxibustion Three Sutras" for a month, and he memorized the contents of the book. On this day, he walked into the Qijia pharmacy and explained his intentions.

"I'm done with the first volume? I'll ask you a few questions to see how much you remember. "Let's try to test him.

"Just ask, Mr. Qi. Chen Fu nodded.

Qi Zhuli smiled and asked, "Where are the acupuncture points of Fengchi, Zhangmen, Zhimu, Taiyuan, and Duyin?"

Chen Fu pointed out one by one on himself.

Qi Zhuli continued to ask, "How does the pulse work?"

Chen Fu replied while gesturing on his body.

"It's not bad, it seems that you are really attentive, and the second volume can be lent to you. However, this needle technique is very profound, and it is not something that can be read by reading a book. Qi Zhuli said with a smile.

"What then, can you teach me?" asked Chen Fu tentatively.

Qi Zhuli obviously didn't expect this problem, twisted his sparse goatee in his left hand, and muttered for a while before saying, "Chen Fu, I wrote this set of books, and I also want to find a suitable person to pass on the craft to him." Since you are interested in acupuncture, I can teach you. However, learning acupuncture is not a matter of time and a half, in addition to the words and deeds of the husband, I also have to watch and practice more. If you really want to learn, stay in the pharmacy. As for how long it takes to learn, it's up to you. ”

"How much does it cost to learn from you?" Mr. Qi, you know, I don't have any money, and I still have to earn money to eat...... Chen Fu stammered.

Qi Zhuli smiled and said: "You help the pharmacy during the day, you help catch the medicine when I prescribe medicine, you help me deliver the needle when I give acupuncture, you help carry the medicine box when I go to the clinic, and usually help Dachun dry the medicinal materials." I don't have to be paid, I don't have to pay, I eat three meals a day at my house. ”

"That's it, that's okay!" Chen Fu thought that there was such a cheap thing, and he could learn art and have food, so he hurriedly responded. Then he knelt down respectfully and kowtowed to Qi Zhili.

Qi Li accepted his salute, and then advised: "In the future, I will come to the pharmacy every morning after practice, and I can go home after dinner." ”

"Mr. Qi, how do you know that I am practicing?" Chen Fu felt strange.

Qi Li smiled and said, "A while ago, many people came to the village, saying that they wanted to find your master to apprentice and cultivate. Your reputation as a cultivator genius has long spread from the county seat, and now no one knows about it!"

So that's the case, Chen Fu thought uneasily, if everyone knew that genius had already become a waste material, I don't know what they would think of themselves.

On the same day, Chen Fu stayed in the pharmacy and followed Da Chun to understand the price of medicinal materials, the storage of medicinal materials and other matters.

The next day was August 15, and after dinner, we tried our best to keep him in the front yard to admire the moon together. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a small table with a plate of mooncakes, two plates of preserved fruit and jerky, a pot of wine and a pot of tea, and a rocking chair and a low stool on each side. Lying on the rocking chair and sipping wine, Chen Fu sat on a low stool and slowly sipped tea, and the two chatted with each other.

Qi Zhuli asked him, "After reading the first volume, what do you not understand?"

Chen Fu asked, "Mr. Qi, it is written in the book that there are many acupoints in the meridians, but why don't I feel my luck when I follow the meridians?"

"The meridians are like canals, and the acupoints are like cisterns in the canals, with a wall between the acupoints and the meridians, like a lid on a water tank. You have to break through this wall to feel it. Qi Zhuli explained.

Chen Fu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly asked, "Breaking through this wall, can you store vitality in the acupoints?"

"You can store vitality, but breaking through this layer of wall requires a strong sense of consciousness to accurately locate it. Qi Zhili smiled slightly and said.

Chen Fu turned his mind and asked again, "Is there another place where you can also store vitality?"

Qi Li replied: "The place where the human body stores the most vitality is the dantian, as well as the acupoints, the spiritual mansion, and the divine palace, all of which can be stored. ”

"Mr. Qi, where is the Spirit Mansion and the Divine Palace?" Chen Fu asked.

"The spiritual house is in the kidneys, heart, liver, lungs, spleen and other five organs. The shrine is in the head, between the eyebrows and the jade pillow. There is a divine consciousness in the shrine, and the cultivator is able to sense himself and the surrounding situation through the fluctuations of thoughts emitted by the divine consciousness. For example, if you have a sense of qi now, and you can absorb it, you can sense it through the fluctuation of your mind. Qi Li said and took a sip of wine, and without waiting for Chen Fu to ask again, he continued with a smile: "There are also walls in these places, and it is not easy to break through!"

"Mr. Qi, I just want to know more about ......," Chen Fu said. He wanted to find a place to store his vitality and not let the bluestone go, but he didn't dare to tell Qi Lili, first, because he was afraid that he would worry, and secondly, because he felt ashamed.

The two continued to chat, and Chen Fu learned a lot of knowledge about cultivation.
