Chapter 22: Asceticism
The person in front of him has a melon seed face, delicate facial features, and a slender figure is a little thin standing under the light, a gust of night wind blows, and the moon-white Luo shirt is fluttering, Chu Chu is moving.
She took a small sip of cherries, her eyes were clear and sharp, and she stabbed Li Muchan directly, like a Yao light sword out of its sheath.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Senior Sister Gong is here, it's really brilliant!"
Qin couldn't wait to ask, "Little San, is this your senior sister?"
Li Muchan said with a smile: "Yes, mother, this is Senior Sister Gong Qingyun Palace, Senior Sister Gong is very powerful, the number one master of the Seventh Academy of Meifu!"
Qin Shi glanced at Gong Qingyun and said kindly: "She is so capable, she is really a good girl...... Come on, don't stand, sit down and talk!"
As she spoke, she stepped forward enthusiastically and took Gong Qingyun's little hand.
Li Zhuzi's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Yurong, don't stand stupidly, don't serve tea to the guests soon!"
Qingliang's eyes turned on Gong Qingyun's face, and Li Yurong pursed her lips and smiled, smiling strangely.
"Dad, I'll come!" Zhao Yiyi said busily, turned around and curled into the main house, quickly came out with a small wooden plate, gave Gong Qingyun a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "Palace girl, please sit down." ”
The Qin clan kept holding Gong Qingyun's little hand, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "It's really handsome, and it's so capable, it's rare!"
Li Muchan looked at it with a smile and didn't speak.
Gong Qingyun frowned, stabbed him, and reluctantly smiled at the Qin family.
"Mother, you're enthusiastic, don't scare people away!" Li Yurong pursed her lips and smiled.
"Nonsense!" Qin Shi waved his hand, glared at her, and when he turned back, he immediately smiled again, and said, "Gong girl, how old are you?
Gong Qingyun coughed lightly and smiled reluctantly: "Auntie, I want to say a few words to Senior Brother Li......"
"Okay, you guys just talk in the courtyard, let's all go into the house!" Qin nodded hurriedly, turned his head and told Li Muchan: "Little San, don't snub the palace girl!"
"Mother, don't worry!" Li Muchan nodded hurriedly.
The Qin family pulled Li Zhuzi, and beckoned to Li Yurong and Zhao Yiyi, and when he left, he still didn't forget to turn his head and smile at Gong Qingyun, and then took the three of them back to the main house.
Li Muchan watched them enter the house, turned back, shook his head and smiled, and said, "Senior Sister Gong, don't be surprised, my mother has always been hospitable, and you are so beautiful and moving, I can't complain about her." ”
Gong Qingyun's delicate melon seed face sank, and he said coldly: "Senior Brother Zhanran, I came to you to tell you that I, Gong Qingyun, am not a person who can't afford to lose!"
Li Muchan was stunned and smiled: "What do you mean by this?"
"It's ridiculous that your four senior brothers are jumping up and down, pleading and threatening, and are so busy...... It seems that I lost, and I have to find the eldest lady to support me!" Gong Qingyun said coldly.
Li Muchan touched his bald head, a little embarrassed.
He really had nothing to say, since yesterday, first the eldest brother, and then the four senior brothers, they were all very nervous, for fear of annoying the eldest lady.
He smiled, and suddenly titheed with his left hand: "It's me who underestimated my senior sister, I'm ashamed!"
Gong Qingyun frowned slightly, stared at his face, and sneered: "Xiaobi in a month, we'll see you later!"
She frowned secretly, thinking: This Zhan Ran is really not easy to deal with, she is determined and broad-minded.
Miss once said that when martial arts reach a certain level, it is difficult to go up again, and the decisive factor is not diligence and intelligence, but the heart, mind and courage.
Li Muchan smiled: "Okay, I can't ask for it, I have always wanted to learn the Yaoguang sword technique of Senior Sister Gong, but unfortunately I couldn't do it last time!"
"Hmph, you'll see you then!" Gong Qingyun said coldly, snorting lightly: "My words are finished, no need to send them!"
After that, she flicked her sleeves and turned around and left, tapped her toes, fluttered flat to two feet away, turned around beside the wall, and disappeared.
Li Muchan looked at the direction in which she disappeared, shook her head and smiled, this palace senior sister is arrogant, and she is really not an ordinary woman.
The four of the Qin clan hurriedly came out and surrounded him in the middle of it.
Qin grabbed him by the placket and shouted, "Okay, little three, how did you get it, you fell out in three or two sentences, and the girl was angry!"
Knowing that the Qin family was eavesdropping in the main house, Li Muchan and Gong Qingyun talked and lowered their voices, they couldn't hear it, they could only see their faces.
Gong Qingyun kept a cold face and a sneer, obviously unhappy.
Li Muchan smiled: "Mother, you are mistaken, Senior Sister Gong and I are not what you think,...... The two of us are friend or foe. ”
"Hmm-what's going on?!" Qin Shi was stunned, let go of his hand, pursed his lips, and said, "Such a beautiful girl, why don't you get along well!"
Li Muchan smiled bitterly: "Mother, I want to get along with others, but they don't agree." ”
"Well, all beautiful girls have a bit of a temper. Qin nodded and glanced at Zhao Yiyi.
Zhao Yiyi snorted: "Mother, what do you see me doing?"
"It's not going to work, look at your temper!" Qin said with a smile.
"Mother-!" Zhao Yiyi was lightly disgusted and hurriedly diverted the topic: "Uncle, although she is beautiful, she has always been cold, not a good match, so forget it." ”
Li Yurong shook her head and snorted angrily: "Okay! Mother, sister-in-law, San'er is a monk, what are you doing blindly!"
This sentence was like a needle, and the Qin family was like a ball of anger, and he suddenly became happy, shook his head and sighed: "Yes, the junior is a monk and can't marry a daughter-in-law!"
Li Yurong said: "Mother, don't worry, maybe, in a few years, the emperor will issue an edict to abolish the ban on customs, isn't it?"
Qin's spirits perked up, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, old man, we have to live well, we can always wait for that day!"
"Okay, okay. Li Zhuzi waved his hand and said loudly: "Eat!
Li Yurong chuckled and said, "Okay, eat!"
She is very cold in front of outsiders, rejecting people thousands of miles away, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world, but she is a daughter at home, not as good as Li Muchan's favored second daughter.
The crane control oil technique was really mysterious, and that night, the pain in the left hand had been relieved and it was no longer uncomfortable.
He practiced the Sutra of Heaven and Man, and from the time of his child to the early morning, the lotus flower was bright and clean, like substance, as if it was within reach, but the white light on the lotus flower had not progressed.
The next day, the sun was still shining.
The bed was moved to the center of the courtyard, and there were still only him and his sister-in-law Zhao Yiyi at home, Li Zhuzi and the Qin family all went to Li Jian's house to help, and the second sister Li Yurong returned to Yingyue Nunnery as soon as it was dawn.
After Zhao Yiyi finished cleaning up, he asked her to sit in front of him, with his back to him, and then stretched out his left palm against her vest, crossed over a mass of internal force, let her experience the existence of internal force, and then practice Tuna.
Zhao Yiyi felt that it was wonderful, and she cultivated very seriously.
He didn't do anything, he didn't practice the six true scriptures, he just sat quietly on the couch, his eyes closed and he breathed, as if he was in a meditation, but his mind was spinning at high speed.
After thinking about it for a long time, he made a guess: this white light needs to be nourished by the heart, and it needs to be burned by the heart fire to enhance and become bigger.
That night, when the child was shi, a drop of nectar fell from Baihui and dripped onto the lotus, and the lotus was quickly absorbed, becoming more and more condensed and more real.
He immediately withdrew from the visualization.
As soon as the thought moved, all the internal forces of the dantian poured out, like a mighty flood, violently sweeping through the meridians of the left hand, and quickly running along the Shadowless Sword Heart Method.
If the left hand is torn open and broken into several pieces, the pain is unbearable.
He endured the pain, relaxed, breathed and calmed his mind, and after a while, he finally entered the state of concentration and immediately began to visualize.
Entering the fixed state, the facial features are sharp, the pain is clearer, and it is magnified several times.
At this time, his concentration of penance for more than ten years was powerful, and he suppressed his mind, abandoning his pain, and focusing on this white light.
After a while, the whole body was light, and then it was warm, like jumping into a hot spring, the whole body was warm and comfortable, and the pain disappeared at once.
He felt like he had changed his body.
Immersed in this wonderful feeling, before you know it, the sky is bright, and the sun shines on the window paper, reflecting the room bright and soft.
The mind faded out of the Heavenly and Human Divine Illumination, the body was still warm, and the left hand was only slightly burning and slightly painful, which could be ignored.
He sat down, stretched, and smiled.
The white light on the lotus flower is a little condensed, and there is a lot of entry, and I guessed it well!
This is a happy event, but unfortunately, this practice is so unbelievable that it is actually the legendary ascetic practice, and if you want to practice it, you need to endure great pain.
He had profound Zen skills, and his memories became clearer and clearer, and he remembered that Master had said before his death that there were 84,000 methods of Buddhist practice, all of which could be attained.
Among them, there is an ascetic practice, which focuses on condensing the mind, often mutilating one's body, using pain to stimulate potential, and strengthen the mind, which is a side-by-side path and is not advisable.
But looking at this view of the heavens and the gods according to the scriptures, solemn and vast, it is by no means a side door, is it possible, I have practiced too much?
He thought about it for a while, and decided to stop for a while, and take a look for the time being, not to be too anxious, so as not to go wrong, and fall into the demon path and never recover.
The surprise was extinguished, and he regained his composure.
Pulling open the door with his right hand, he walked through the main house and came to the small courtyard, Zhao Yiyi probed from the kitchen: "Uncle, are you awake?"
Li Muchan responded: "Okay, eat." ”
After he washed up, the meal was already on the table, hot and fragrant.
Zhao Yiyi was dressed in a peach-colored single dress, delicate and moving, seeing Li Muchan holding chopsticks in his right hand, he asked with a smile: "Uncle, aren't you practicing your left hand?"
Li Muchan smiled: "My left hand is injured again." ”
Zhao Yiyi was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Okay, why are you injured?"
Li Muchan smiled: "It doesn't matter, the practice is too urgent, something went wrong." ”
Zhao Yiyi pursed her lips and smiled: "This right hand is just right, but the left hand is injured again, Yurong knows about it, and she has to complain again." ”
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head again.
Four days later, in the early hours of the morning, he appeared outside the Mei Mansion.
As soon as he approached the Mei Mansion, he noticed that something was wrong, Zhong Dahe and the four of them at the door were originally strained, murderous, and terrifying.
As soon as I saw him coming, my face immediately changed, and I looked at him with a smile and a strange gaze.
Zhong Dahe and the four of them are the ironclad guards of Meifu, and they have a very good relationship with Li Muchan.
There are four classes of Meifu guards, iron armor, bronze armor, silver armor, and gold armor, according to the calculation of martial arts and meritorious service, each upper layer, the salary is doubled, and the difference is huge.
The ironclad guards take turns standing in front of the door, rotating every three days.
Li Muchan titheed and asked with a smile, "Brother Zhong, what's the matter?"
"Haha, it's okay! It's okay...... Zhan Ran, go in quickly!" Zhong Dahe laughed twice, but refused to say more.
Li Muchan looked at him, then at the three of them, didn't ask any more, and entered the house.
