The process of opening the meridians was relatively slow. At this time, the meridians had not been officially used, so their foundation was weak. They could not be forcibly flushed, and they needed to adapt. It was like a poor quality water pipe that could easily burst under high pressure.
The Qi-circulating meridians in the body were the foundation of the cultivation of True Qi. In cultivation, there was a saying called "foundation building". The so-called foundation building was actually to build the net-like Qi-circulating meridians in the body firmly, so that the True Qi in the body could flow smoothly through the channels and withstand high pressure and high-speed impact. Once this foundation was built, it would be the so-called "Foundation Building" realm, and one could do whatever he wanted. Of course, the foundation could also be good or bad. The better the foundation, the greater the ability to withstand pressure.
He had just started in the Training Qi realm and was still far from the Foundation Building realm.
The process of opening the meridians could not be done in a day or two. It was a delicate work that required a certain amount of time, not to mention that he had to pretend to be courteous during the day.
As soon as the first rays of the morning sun appeared, he immediately stopped. A wisp of True Qi was stored in his Dantian, like a floating sword that was ready to be launched.
After washing and getting rid of the smell of blood, he stood in the courtyard and opened his arms to welcome the first ray of sunlight. His True Qi had been cultivated, and he felt the long-lost feeling of the Essence Protective Cover.
During the day, he dealt with Xu Yitian and Chen Guishuo. At night, he temporarily gave up other cultivation and immediately entered the state of opening the meridians.
The days passed like this. It seemed that no one would pay attention to him, and he felt that he was in a forgotten corner.
However, Song Yanqing was always thinking about him. He came to him every two or three days, asking if he had remembered the poems of his teacher. Of course, Niu Youdao responded with a soft nail. He would not release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.
A few days later, Elder Luo Yuangong came. He was the Elder of the Shangqing Sect, and he had a strong aura of a tiger. With three strands of ink-black beard, he gave people a feeling that he was not angry. In comparison, Elder Su Po appeared to be taciturn in the impression of the disciples of the Shangqing Sect. He usually didn't talk much, while Elder Tang Susu appeared to be sharper. It was unknown whether it was related to women or not.
Song Yanqing tagged along as well. There was nothing much to do on this trip. It was to officially impart the cultivation technique to Niu Youdao. Luo Yuangong's presence was nothing more than a small ceremony.
Even so, Niu Youdao still admired Song Yanqing's capability. He was able to bring Luo Yuangong here, which showed the influence of the Song family in the Shangqing Sect.
There was also a statue of the Patriarch in the Peach Blossom Hall. After paying respects to the Patriarch, Luo Yuangong ordered the accompanying disciples to pass a few ancient books to Niu Youdao. He also ordered Niu Youdao to kneel in front of the Patriarch and swear that he would not leak the cultivation technique to the outside world.
After the ceremony was over, Luo Yuangong saw that Niu Youdao's expression was actually quite complicated. He knew very well what was going on inside, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he felt guilty, especially when facing the seated statue of the ancestor. He felt even more ashamed. After a moment of hesitation, his stern expression relaxed, and he gently exhorted, "My senior apprentice brother can be considered to have quite a discerning eye. The few disciples he has accepted are all outstanding talents, and your master is one of them. He can be considered a rare talent in the Shang Qing Sect in recent years. I hope that you will cultivate well, and do not disappoint your master's dying expectations. I hope that you will be successful, and that you can contribute to the future of my Shang Qing Sect."
"Yes, this disciple will remember!" Niu Youdao, who was holding the ancient books, was very respectful. But in his heart, he was ecstatic. He could not wait to flip through the ancient books in his hands and read to his heart's content.
Luo Yuangong then turned to Song Yanqing and said, "Fellow disciples of the same sect should help each other out. Your Senior Uncle Dongguo has passed away, and Niu Youdao has no one to pass on his teachings to, so I'll leave the task of guiding him in his cultivation to you, do you have any complaints?"
Song Yanqing immediately cupped his hands and said, "No complaints, this disciple will do his best!"
Luo Yuangong nodded. Then he strolled around the Peach Blossom Garden. It was unknown whether it was because he lamented the early death of Dongguo Haoran, but he left with a face full of melancholy.
Now that there were no outsiders, Niu Youdao immediately flipped through the ancient books eagerly. His eyes were shining. Wasn't this the reason he went through so many hardships to come here?
One was the "Shang Qing Heart Scripture", which was the authentic cultivation method of the Shangqing Sect.
The other was the "Shang Qing Shilu Lost Records", which was all-inclusive and divided into several chapters. There were chapters on herbs, pills, birds and beasts, foreign affairs, and so on. The so-called foreign affairs chapter recorded the deeds of some people in the world of cultivation. Niu Youdao flipped through it briefly. From the date of the record, he could see that it was constantly being updated.
The "Shang Qing Shilu Lost Records" was what Niu Youdao needed. It would be of great help to him in understanding the market. However, he only flipped through it briefly before throwing it aside. His main focus was still on the "Shang Qing Heart Scripture", which was what he urgently needed.
As soon as he flipped through it, he was fascinated. In his previous life, in order to cultivate the "Taiyi", he did not know how many ancient books he had read and how many experts he had visited to solve his doubts. Only then was he able to fully understand the "Shang Qing Shilu Lost Records". It was not difficult for him to understand it, in fact, it was very interesting.
He knew that the Shangqing Sect definitely had some techniques that they had not taught him, and it was impossible for them to give him everything at once. Therefore, he did not complain. One step at a time, he understood the principle of biting off more than he could chew. The things in his hands were enough for him to enjoy for a long time.
The next day, Song Yanqing came to him again to ask for a poem. His promise to Luo Yuangong was like a fart. Niu Youdao held the "Shang Qing Heart Scripture" in his hands and asked what it meant, but the other party did not have the patience to explain it. In short, I have given you what I promised you. You have to give me what you promised me!
Bastard! Niu Youdao cursed him in his heart. He grinded the ink and wrote another poem for him.
After reading it, Song Yanqing was overjoyed. He turned around and asked happily, "Are there any more?"
Niu Youdao's face was bitter, "I can only think of one for now!" How could he give everything to the other party and leave himself a way out?
"Only one?" Song Yanqing's face darkened.
Niu Youdao said, "Senior Brother, my memory is not very good. You have to let me think about it slowly! What does this place mean? "He held up the" Shang Qing Heart Scripture "again and asked for guidance.
Song Yanqing said impatiently, "If you don't understand anything, ask Xu Yitian and Chen Guishuo. Don't delay what I asked you to do. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Just like what he said, Niu Youdao would consult Xu Yitian and Chen Guishuo whenever he did not understand the "Shang Qing Heart Scripture". It was not that the things he knew in his previous life were useless. It was because the two worlds were different and there were still some differences. There were indeed some doubts that needed to be clarified.
Just like that, he studied the book in the day and concentrated on his cultivation at night. He continued to clear his meridians.
When he was clearing his meridians, he found another problem. The problem that Dongguo Haoran left in his body was the Dharma Protection Amulet that he inserted into his meridians. It was like a spider web that was entrenched in his meridians. With his cultivation level, it was difficult to clear it. He tried to force it. The Dharma Protection Amulet was like a big formation that was connected to his blood and Qi. If he tried to clear it by force, it would rebound. His Taiyi essential Qi was too weak compared to it and was directly bounced off.
The Dharma Protection Amulet was entrenched in his body and affected the movement of his essential Qi. Now that he had cultivated essential Qi, he could activate it and release it. However, when he thought about the protective effect of the amulet, he did not waste it. There was no harm in keeping it for protection.
"Enter my Lovesickness Gate, know my pain of lovesickness. Longing for each other, longing for each other. Longing for each other is endless … "
In the quiet courtyard, Tang Yi, who was holding the calligraphy of Song Yanqing, Slowly strolled and softly read. Whenever she felt emotional, she could not help but hold it in her arms and reminisce about it.
Later, she asked someone to inquire about Song Yanqing's whereabouts. Still, there was no sign that Song Yanqing had received any letters from the outside world. Instead, he went to the Peach Blossom Spring.
Niu Youdao was engrossed in his cultivation. Song Yanqing would come and disturb him from time to time. On the other hand, Tang Yi would receive Song Yanqing's masterpieces from time to time.
"What is love in the world? It teaches you to live and die together …" Tang Yi strolled in the courtyard.
"It is difficult to see the water in the vast ocean, it is not the cloud except for Mount Wu …" Tang Yi stood in front of her dressing table.
"Pass the pheasant, in the State of the River. A fair and graceful lady, a gentleman's desire … "Tang Yi leaned on the windowsill.
"Falling flowers stand alone, swallows fly together in the rain …" Tang Yi stood on the roof of the small building and slowly put down the paper in her hand. Her bright eyes gazed at the Peach Blossom Spring on the opposite cliff.
If she did not know about Song Yanqing's background, she would have been stunned by Song Yanqing. Every few days, he would come up with a good poem and send it to her. Moreover, they were all love poems. His attack was too fierce. It was enough to move one's heart, causing her heart to palpitate. She almost could not handle it.
She had already figured out the pattern. As long as Song Yanqing went to the Peach Blossom Spring, there would definitely be good poems sent to her.
Who was in the Peach Blossom Spring? Xu Yitian and Chen Guishuo took turns to be on duty. They did not meet with Song Yanqing, who often went there. Therefore, only the person who was under house arrest was left.
However, she could not figure it out. Even if a youth from the mountains was educated and could write poems, how could he write these love poems at such a young age?
If it was not him, then who wrote it? Could it be Song Yanqing himself? Impossible. If he really had such talent, how could he wait until now to reveal it?
She faintly suspected that Niu Youdao heard it from somewhere. However, if he really heard it, he could have just written it down. Why did he make Song Yanqing go there every few days?
There were too many doubts. This matter was like a fog that was bothering her …
"Brother Song, take care!"
Niu Youdao cupped his hands to send Song Yanqing off. After seeing him leave the courtyard, he muttered and scolded. "I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen someone so shameless. Is there an end to it … Eh, Senior Brother Chen!" He saw Chen Guishuo walking in with a smile.
Chen Guishuo looked at the food box at the side. He clicked his tongue and said, "Recently, Brother Song has been treating little Junior Brother very well. He would personally send food and wine over."
Niu Youdao was annoyed and amused at the same time. Song Yanqing was so attentive. He guessed that he had won Tang Yi's favor.
As usual, Niu Youdao opened the food box and shared it with Chen Guishuo. The two of them drank and chatted merrily. They were already very familiar with each other.
Other things were not important to Niu Youdao for the time being. The meridians in his body had all been cleared. He discovered that his cultivation aptitude was not bad. He was overjoyed and put all his energy into the cultivation of Shang Qing Heart Scripture.
