Armillary Boots @ Chapter 3 Coincidentally passed on the merit by chance

The tide has risen to the feet, and occasionally the waves splash on the clothes. On the way back, there should be rocks that have been overflowed by the sea, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the sea. They don't have wetsuits, and the cold water in winter is too cold to bear.

Watching the old fart grab the sea rabbit's trap and carry it on his shoulder with his own, so that the sea rabbit who picked up the iron bucket could concentrate on leading the way in front, Warren began to be more afraid in his heart: just a few drops of splashed water can make the skin that was hit feel the burning pain, if there is no old fart reminder and the sea rabbit hit, I am afraid that the entire right side of his face will be slashed off.

It was useless to be afraid, and Warren shook his head vigorously, as if to shake out the cowardly mentality. I was about to follow the steps of the two to the shore, when I suddenly heard the sea hare whispering: "There are seafarers staring at us!" Warren looked up at the two, the old fart did not turn his head, but suddenly said loudly: "Boss, who is going to cook crab roe at noon?"

"Let's go to your house, although I didn't catch the purple jade shell today, I didn't come in vain, go to your house to drink and eat crabs!" As he spoke, he carefully jumped on the rocks. Out of the deep water, to see that the tide has not risen to the shallows, the three of them stopped, bent down to overturn the rocks around them, if they were lucky, they could catch a few fat crabs and stranded big fish, carefully stuffed into the barrel through the gap in the lid, ready to be sold to the restaurant in the market. When the tide rose to the shallows, the three of them withdrew their hands and walked happily towards the market.

There are stalls rented by foreign merchants in the market, specializing in the purchase of purple jade shellfish. At this time, it was already noon, and not every stall was full of people, so it was probably time to go for lunch. Three people carried buckets, and occasionally one or two crab claws poked out of the gap in the lid of the barrel, and occasionally passers-by thought they were carrying a bucket of crab roe. The three of them walked to the most remote buying stall in the depths of the market, and the old man guarding the stall was still there. The sea rabbit lifted the bucket and put it on the stall, the old man first frowned and was about to drive away, but then smiled: "A few little guys are quite powerful, big, colorful, good, just the three of you, I took six gold coins." ”

The old man dragged the bucket without thinking about protection, pressed the buckle nose of the lid of the bucket, reached directly into the bucket with one hand, took out a tightly closed purple jade shell, tied it with a cross skein, and threw it into his big bucket. The old man pushed the bucket, took out a few gold coins from his arms, and was about to throw them to the three of them, but he put them back in his arms, and began to look at them carefully while holding the case with both hands.

Just when the three of them almost decided that the other party was going to repay the debt, the old man spoke: "I see that the three of you are not too old, and it is not too late to practice martial arts." Although the talents are uneven, and there may be a big gap in future achievements, it is much better than fooling around in the countryside like now. He pointed to the sea nurex and said, "Especially you, you only need to practice for three or five years, and catching a purple jade shell is like picking up a bag." ”

"I have an authentic basic technique here, plus three elixirs to lay the foundation for you, and I can ensure that you can get started in seven days. I'm not going to open my mouth and just take five gold coins from you, how about it?"

Looking at the longing eyes of the nudibranchs and the old fart, Warren knew he couldn't refuse, so he nodded. The old man had already taken out three pills, and the sea rabbit saw that Warren nodded, and couldn't wait to stretch out his hand to the old man.

The old man did not hand over the pill immediately, but vacated the round pier seat of the stall and let the sea hreen sit down cross-legged, so that the sea hair took the pill, and then went around behind the sea hadi, restrained his left shoulder with his left hand, and stretched out his right hand against the back of his heart, so that he put away his selfish distractions, and carefully appreciate the direction of the foreign true qi in the meridians, and intended to follow the pneumatic and pull the medicinal qi, until the true qi is bred in the body, and the qi can move at will, which is considered to be the entry.

Half an hour later, the old man withdrew his palm, and after another quarter of an hour or so, the nudike opened his eyes excitedly and shouted, "I did it, I did it." The old man nodded approvingly, and motioned for the old fart to sit down. The old fart took a full hour after the old man took his palm, and then he opened his eyes and stood up with a smile on his face.

In the end, Warren naturally knew that his qualifications were not as good as the two of them, and he was a little depressed. When he really sat down cross-legged, Warren's heart began to feel a little apprehensive. After taking the pill, I felt a fire falling into my abdomen, and there was a burning sensation but it was not unbearable. When the back of the heart was attached to the palm of the old man's hand, he felt a refreshing breath flowing into the body, advanced to the heart, and went down the lower abdomen and lower body, turned the back body, and went up the spine to the back of the head and the top of the head, and then along the nose, jaw, and throat and then flowed into the heart again. With the cycle, there are always sporadic fire qi in the belly that spreads over and follows the movement, and can even run ahead.

However, I don't know why, as soon as the foreign breath enters the body, it passes through the veins and advances rapidly, and Warren's consciousness is exhausted, and he can't keep up with the flow of the breath, and finally merges together but has to start a new cycle. I don't know how long it took, the mind was finally able to merge with the breath, but the external breath was no longer injected, and the fire in the abdomen seemed to become weak. The mind pushed the fire to sway, advance and retreat, and occasionally stagnate, stubbornly persevered for a long time, and finally advanced a little.

When Warren was stagnant at first, he couldn't help but feel anxious and anxious, but later he found that he could move forward again, and his heart finally calmed down, and gradually he could finally let his consciousness drive the circulation of medicinal qi, and a faint refreshing breath gradually sprouted everywhere in his body to follow him. Warren knew that it was done, and when he opened his eyes, it was already dim, and I was afraid it was already time.

Both the old fart and the sea hare stood aside, patiently waiting for Warren to get started. Seeing that he finally woke up from his meditation, he leaned forward happily. The old man looked at Warren and shook his head, he should have taken pity on his qualifications, and then he nodded again, thinking that he was glad that he had finally started. The old man handed over a thin book of exercises, and said in a deep voice: "Although this book of secrets is a basic exercise, it cannot be lost to the world, and it cannot be entered without cooperating with the elixir. The three of you will take it to good life cultivation and return it to me in seven days. After speaking, he briefly talked about the key and sequence of cultivation. The secret book is mostly illustrated, with few words, and although the three of them are not literate, they can also write it down bluntly.

The three of them complied, and saw the old man hand over a gold coin. Warren took the gold coin, put it on the iron bucket, thanked the old man, and then went to a familiar restaurant in the Fang City together, sold the sea fish and crabs, and earned more than a dozen coppers. After that, the three of them exchanged the gold coins for silver coins, and the copper was used to cut off the cost of buying iron buckets and fishing pockets, and divided the rest equally.

Seeing that it was still early before the low tide again, Warren couldn't go back to the nest, so the three of them bought a few cakes to pad their stomachs, and went to the sea rabbit's house to continue practicing while it was hot. In the next seven days, in addition to Hua Lun taking time to buy food and daily necessities, he also made savings and sent the rest of the money back to the nest, and the rest of the time, the three of them certified each other to study the exercises.

The entry is only to help with foreign medicine to achieve the purpose of nourishing qi and penetrating the two veins of Rendu, and the next seven days are to open up the eight veins of the Qi meridians around the body. Similar to the process of getting started, in just one day, the sea rabbit officially started the whole set of exercises, and the old fart only took three days. Hua Lun had no intention of eating and sleeping, meditating and practicing day and night, and on the afternoon of the seventh day, he finally opened up all the meridians.

When the three of them arrived at Fang City, the old man's stall had been put away, and it was obvious that they were impatient to wait. After returning the exercises, the old man did not show any unhappiness, but carefully told the three of them about the various realms of true qi cultivation: the first three layers of refining refinement, refining qi, and refining spirits, the middle three layers refining tendons, bones, and skin, and the last three layers refining gang, refining soldiers, and refining intentions, until the Great Perfection shattered the void.

Speaking of realm distinction, the old man introduced himself as Du, an elder of the outer sect of Qingyun Sect, responsible for the procurement of elixirs and the recruitment of outer disciples. Then, he took out three copper-shaped metal logos and distributed them to the three of them, saying that they were bronze medals for the identity of the registered disciples of the sect, and the three of them could return to the sect if they consciously cultivated in the future. The main gate has branches in various county towns, and the main helm is naturally located in the capital. The three of them didn't think much about it, leaving their names to Elder Du, and looking forward to one day returning to the head helm of Qingyunmen.
