Chapter 489: One, two, three, and four (to make up for the second chapter, there are still seven chapters left)
After twenty days of doing nothing, the cavalry visited almost every corner of Sui County. There was no military order from Fang Jie, and no one except for scouts was allowed to leave the city casually. Although it was rare to enjoy the time without war, it was still a bit boring after all. In Da Quan's spare time, Fang Jie taught him backgammon to many people, and it quickly became a trend in the camp. Go, which has nineteen vertical and horizontal lines, is too complicated and profound. Backgammon is simple and easy to learn, so everyone has a great time playing it.
Fang Jie was walking on the street and smiled when he looked at the soldiers squatting on the ground by the roadside and playing with stones after drawing random pictures. He liked this rare feeling of relaxation amidst the tension. Some of the scouts sent out gradually returned, but what they brought back were news within a radius of two to three hundred miles. It is estimated that it will take at least ten days to know the exact situation in Xiangcheng.
Apart from the daily inspection of the barracks, Fang spent most of his time practicing.
Back at his residence, he took out the book Wan Xingchen gave him and read it carefully again. Although he still found nothing, he did not give up.
That old man once stood at the pinnacle of martial arts in the Central Plains and even now, the things he gave will never be worthless.
Looking at the meridians depicted on the pictures, a moving picture gradually appeared in Fang Jie's mind. Those meridians seemed to come alive, and the vitality could be faintly seen flowing. Fang Jie would have this illusion every time he looked at it, maybe because he was too focused. Just looking at the direction of this context, Fang Jie still finds nothing.
Shen Qing opened the door and walked in, pouring a cup of tea for Fang Jie.
"Still nothing found?"
She sat down opposite Fang Jie, resting her chin on her hands and looking at her little man.
"without"
Fang Jie shook his head: "I really can't say that I have any talent in cultivation. If it weren't for my special physique, I would be a real waste. I have read this booklet from front to back more than a hundred times. I I still don¡¯t understand what great secret is hidden in it.¡±
Shen Qingshan was silent for a while and said: "Although the practice method you told me is more difficult, once you master the rapid advancement, the power of the moves is also much greater. Since the method you practice is right, simply don't do it If you¡¯re just staring at this booklet and thinking about it, it¡¯s better to practice in your own way.¡±
Fang Jie clenched his fist and punched out the window.
The bare old tree outside the window immediately began to sway, and a piece of the tree trunk was shattered by the fist wind. The bark flew away, and a crater was created.
"I don't have Qi Hai Dantian, so I can only use this method to practice. Luo Yao said that this is the most correct way to practice at the time. But I not only told you this method, Xiao Yao, Da Quan, Qilin, and even Mr. Zhuo all know it. But no one can master it. This shows that the so-called correctness has its limitations and does not work for everyone.¡±
"There is no sea of ??qi"
Shen Qingshan pondered for a while and said: "The cultivation methods of professors from all sects are similar. They all enter the energy of heaven and earth into the Dantian Qi sea through breathing, and temper it into internal energy. And the internal energy passes through the limbs and bones, and then tempers the physical body. You Your physical body is already far stronger than that of ordinary people, and even the ninth-level experts who use ordinary methods are not as strong as your body. So you have saved one step, that is, you don't have to use your inner energy to temper your physical body."
She frowned and suddenly thought of something: "You don't have a sea of ??qi, so you can't store internal energy. The internal energy flows out from the sea of ????qi and then circulates throughout the body. This is the only way for practitioners to improve their physical fitness. And the sea of ????qi itself exists in the human body Among them, it is already far stronger than other parts of the body without the need for tempering of the vitality of heaven and earth. How good a person's cultivation talent is depends not only on his understanding, but also on the size of the Qi sea and the number of smooth Qi meridians. "
¡°The sea of ??qi and the qi meridians are things that already exist, they are not something that comes from practice.¡±
Fang Jie didn¡¯t understand what she meant: ¡°What does this have to do with my practice?¡±
Shen Qingshan's thoughts suddenly became clear: "That's not true, but if you think about it in another direction, it's obvious You don't have a sea of ??qi, and your body doesn't need to be tempered. What does this mean?"
Fang Jie asked: "What does it mean?"
"It means that your whole body is the same as the sea of ??qi of ordinary practitioners. In other words, you don't have a sea of ??qi, maybe your whole body is a sea of ??qi."
After saying this, even Shen Qingshan himself was shocked.
"I understand what you mean!"
Fang Jie nodded, but there was no joy: "Even so, my body is a sea of ????qi that is much larger than that of ordinary practitioners, but I cannot incorporate the vitality of heaven and earth into my body, which means that no matter how big my sea of ????qi is, Neither?? because it is impossible to store incoming items. "
Shen Qingshan looked at the booklet in front of Fang Jie, and fell into deep thought while looking at the meridians of the human body on the picture.
After the vitality of heaven and earth is incorporated into the body, it enters the sea of ????qi, and is then sent throughout the body by the sea of ????qi. This process is the process of spiritual practice. Fang Jie's body cannot incorporate the vitality of heaven and earth. If his body is a sea of ??qi, it is just a huge but abandoned warehouse, which is meaningless.
"Inner energy comes out of the sea of ??qi, circulates throughout the body and returns to the sea of ????qi, repeating itself over and over again. This is the practice. If your whole person is the sea of ????qi, then how should you let the vitality of heaven and earth circulate throughout your body? Where is your whole body?"
Shen Qingshan¡¯s words were a bit obscure, but he understood them.
He followed Shen Qingfan¡¯s thoughts. After a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I seem to have found a clue"
He turned over the book to the page with the same physique as his own, and looked at the pitiful few energy channels and pitiful air pockets of the human body on the picture, and it seemed that a gap in the mystery in his mind was about to be opened. This feeling is very subtle, and there is a feeling that after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, you are finally reaching the end.
"If I am the sea of ??qi, then where is my body?"
Fang Jie murmured: "I am the sea of ??qi, and the heaven and earth are my body?"
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie stretched out his hand and stared at the human body painted on the booklet. He looked at one of the veins for a long time, then closed his eyes to feel his own veins.
He stretched out his hand, and immediately a small ball of flame gradually formed in his palm. This is like a natural reaction, and there is no need to deliberately meditate to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth. As long as Fang Jie thinks about it, the flames will come out of his palms.
"This is it"
Fang Jie opened his eyes, and the fire in his palms disappeared immediately. He pointed to a meridian drawn on the diagram: "I can feel that the fire comes from this meridian."
Shen Qingshan looked at the picture and found that the meridians drawn on the human body on the picture were really pitiful. Compared with the mediocre practitioners, there was no advantage at all. The Qi meridians in the body of a practitioner who has barely reached the first level are several times more than Fang Jie's. Shen Qingshan knows her body very well, so she is sure that if Fang Jie's body really only has these few Qi meridians, then the Qi meridians in her own body will be At least a hundred times more than him.
She stretched out her hand to pinch Fang Jie's pulse gate, felt it carefully and then said: "There are only five Qi pulses in your body, and the other two gradually took shape during this period. When you were in Chang'an, you only had two and a half Qi pulses, one of which was It¡¯s like a dead end. Now, not only have the originally blocked Qi meridians been unblocked, but there are also two more.¡±
Fang Jie looked at the picture, and then felt his body according to the positions of the meridians on the picture.
After at least half an hour, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "I have found where the second energy channel is. It took me so long to find out where the things I have are. I am afraid I know more about myself than You want less."
"Try to meditate on the energy channels you just noticed."
Shen Qingshan said immediately.
Fang Jie nodded, then closed his eyes again and fell into silence.
Shen Qingshan sat up straight and looked at Fang Jie, quietly waiting for Fang Jie to discover anything new about his body. Shen Qingshan knew that he had more experience than Fang Jie in practice, but his own experience was of little help to Fang Jie. From the beginning, the two people's cultivation methods were different, but later on, it was Fang Jie who taught her more useful things.
She looked at Fang Jie's face, trying to capture something from the expression on his face.
So, it wasn¡¯t until she felt a little cold that she realized she had overlooked one thing and opened her mouth wide in surprise. Perhaps because she was too shocked, she raised her hand and covered her mouth to force herself not to scream.
Fang Jie¡¯s hands were placed on the table, which had turned dark blue.
A layer of ice spread outward from Fang Jie's hand, and half of the table was covered with a thin layer. Fang Jie's palm was wrapped in this dark blue ice, and the outline of the palm could not even be seen clearly. Shen Qingshan wanted to call Fang Jie to pull him out of this weird state. But she was afraid of the negative impact if she rashly awakened Fang Jie from his meditation, so she endured it several times and decided not to disturb Fang Jie.
"Article 2"
Fang Jie murmured.
¡°Perhaps he didn¡¯t even realize he was speaking, it was just a subconscious expression. The blue ice became thicker and thicker in his hands, and then in Shen Qingshan's surprised eyes, the ice gradually changed its shape. A sharp ice spike gradually formed on each of Fang Jie's hands, and then became longer and longer. It seems that the ice spikes are not only strong but also sharp.?, Shen Qingshan even believed that the ice spike could easily pierce a person.
Just when her surprise and shock had not subsided, there was a click, and the ice in Fang Jie's hand suddenly shattered and fell to the side.
"I found the third one"
Fang Jie closed his eyes and spoke in a completely ethereal state.
Shen Qingshan did not look at Fang Jie's expression this time, but stared at Fang Jie's hands.
But there was no change in those hands this time, and Shen Qingshan couldn't help but let out a slow sigh of relief. But at this moment, she suddenly realized that she was looking in the wrong direction again.
Around Fang Jie¡¯s body, there were some tiny, shiny particles floating, and there were more and more of them. These particles are like fine dust, but they reflect a metallic luster in the sunlight coming in from the window. It's like gold sand, sparkling. There are more and more golden sands, and after a few minutes, there are so many that they are connected together!
Shen Qingshan's pupils suddenly shrank, unable to conceal the shock in his heart.
Now Fang Jie is as if he has a layer of armor on the outside of his body!
Mu Xiaoyao and Wanyan Yunshu walked into Fang Jie's room while chatting and laughing. When they reached the door, they both stopped at the same time. They were all frightened by the strange scene in the room. Wanyan Yunshu couldn't help but scream, but Mu Xiaoyao covered his mouth.
Mu Xiaoyao pulled Wanyan Yunshu slowly back to the door, standing there looking at the man whose body seemed to be wrapped in golden sand.
"Article 4"
After Fang Jie said these words, the golden sand suddenly fell down one after another like something that had lost its support, spreading a layer on the ground.
The three women stared at Fang Jie, trying to find any changes in Fang Jie again. But this time, no matter how hard they searched, they didn't see any miracle happen to Fang Jie.
No one noticed.
The already somewhat broken table had a bud slowly growing out of one of its cracked legs.
