Peach and plum spring breeze and a glass of wine

"Get the true meaning of the Five Elements and use it to help yourself..."

After seeing Fang Ke off and cleaning up the kitchen, Yang Ge comfortably brewed a pot of tea, sat under the grape trellis and leisurely opened the book "Five Elements Returning to Vitality" sent by Jiang Kui.

He had heard Wei Heng mention this internal skill before, and from Wei Heng's tone at that time, he had high praise for this internal skill.

Now that he has read the general outline of this internal skill, he feels that this internal skill is indeed extraordinary.

This internal skill is divided into six levels in total.

The first five levels talk about how to condense the five elements of true energy and how to balance the five elements of true energy.

The sixth level talks about how to remove the five elements from the meridians and enter the organs, and how to transform the five elements into Hunyuan...

In terms of realm, this internal skill is also divided into two realms.

The first five levels are a state, step by step, pragmatic.

Talk about how each type of Qi can exert its maximum power.

The last realm is far-sightedness and detachment.

Let’s talk about what kind of characteristics and power the Hunyuan Zhenqi should have after the five elements are unified...

Yes, it can be seen from the description of the general outline that this internal skill is not yet perfect. The last level of cultivation method is still in the state of deduction and conjecture. It is estimated that even the person who created this internal skill has I have never practiced to the final level of unification of the five elements.

The secret book Jiang Kui sent was a manuscript written by him.

In addition to the general outline of this internal skill, mental formulas, and exercise route map, the secret book also contains some private information about Jiang Kui's practice of this internal skill.

In the private goods, Jiang Kui said that Lihuo Zhenqi can greatly boost the power of Gangmeng Lushu's martial arts. For example, "Eighteen-Road Chaotic Wind Kick" can increase several times with the blessing of Lihuo Zhenqi. A level of power!

The true energy of Guishui can enhance the power of martial arts that use softness to overcome hardness, such as "Eighteen-Way Snow Palm". If you can get the blessing of the true energy of Guishui, you can use the characteristics of this palm technique to be as good as water and soft yet strong. , played to the extreme.

Gengjin Qi can enhance the power of sword techniques, such as the "Eighteen-Way Lingshuang Sword". If it can be blessed with Gengjin Qi, it can at least push the peak power of this sword technique to another level. .

As for the thick earth qi and the green wood qi, Jiang Kui didn't mention much in the secret book. He only said that the thick earth qi can enhance the power of the thick martial arts, and the green wood qi can enhance the power of the strong body martial arts.

Compared with other excellent internal skills that specialize in one trait, either extraordinary endurance, extraordinary explosive power, or extraordinary speed of improvement...

Yang Ge felt that this "Five Elements Returning to Vitality" was a bit like the Xixi lineup when playing some chess games in the past.

The main thing is that it is an all-rounder that can fight, carry and run, and has a strong battery life.

Of course, there is a saying: master of all things, sparse of none.

The first five levels of this internal skill are a bit proficient in everything but sparse in everything.

So the last level is like drawing a pie, drawing a grand and illusory blueprint!

Slogans like "The five elements are unified and Hunyuan is invincible" are very inspiring just listening to them!

Looking through the entire secret book, Yang Ge had a suspicion in his mind.

He took out Jiang Kui's letter, opened it, took out the letter and read...

As expected, this internal skill was created by "Hunjianglong" Lei Heng, who combined the best of hundreds of schools of thought and combined the special martial arts characteristics of the five brothers!

This is very professional!

Yang Ge's martial arts skills were all inherited from the Five Ghosts of Youyun, except for the "never come back" sword that he learned on the Bianhe River.

There are actually a lot of things to pay attention to in the inheritance of martial arts.

As the old saying goes: teach the apprentice and starve the master.

Even if it is a true master and apprentice, the master's trump card will usually not be passed on to the apprentice until the master dies.

If it is passed on to outsiders, there will be even more taboos.

Because passing one's martial arts to others is tantamount to opening up one's knowledge for others to study, which naturally also contains some flaws and shortcomings in martial arts...

Who knows if these flaws and shortcomings will be exploited by enemies in the future if word spreads about them?

Therefore, stealing other people's martial arts has always been a taboo in the world.

The three martial arts passed down to Yang Ge in Yan Yun Five Ghosts, Piao Xue Palm and Chaotic Wind Kicks, are the special skills of the third and fourth sons.

The third and fourth children are gone long ago...

When Jiang Kui and Lei Heng passed on these two martial arts to him, they saw that he was extremely talented in martial arts and hoped that he could pass on the martial arts of their sworn brothers.

The Lingshuang Sword is Jiang Kui's special martial arts.

Jiang Kui's mind was filled with revenge, and he didn't care much about whether his martial arts knowledge was spread to others.

In addition, when Lei Heng and Liu Meng came to Luting to make a fuss, he felt that he owed Yang Ge, and wanted to repay Shen Fa's favor for him to seek refuge in the court, so he spread the word to Yang Ge. Knife skills.

This is why among Jiang Kui's personal items, he brushed aside Houtu Qi and Qingmu Qi.

Lei Heng and Liu Meng were both still alive, and they had no special friendship with Yang Ge. Naturally, Jiang Kui would not mention their martial arts qualities.

As for internal strength, there are even more taboos!

For any sect in the world, excellent internal skills are the treasure of the sect!

It is the kind of rare treasure that no one will easily teach even if he inherits the mantle or becomes a disciple.

Even if it is passed down, most of it is passed on layer by layer, half by half.

This time perhaps it was what Yang Ge did in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which suited Jiang Kui's taste, and Yang Ge could be regarded as a half-disciple of the three brothers, and his character was indeed strong...

He just taught Yang Ge's "Five Elements Return to Vitality"!

But no matter what Jiang Kui thinks.

Yang Ge owes this favor to Dafa!

"How should I repay this..."

He stroked the cover of the secret book, unable to conceal his joy, but also felt a headache.

‘How about we get them some food? Aren't Lei Heng and Liu Meng still planting flags outside the customs? They shouldn't have too much food, right? ’

‘Eight thousand taels of silver, minus the losses on the road, should still have a lot left in their hands, right? ’

Eight thousand taels of silver was already his entire net worth.

Most of it was squeezed from the three major grain merchants the year before last.

As for the regular money he received when he was in charge of the Hundred and Thousand Households in Xiuyiwei, he spent half of it every month to provide food for his subordinates. There was really not much left over, and he never relied on the power in his hands to collect it. Spend ill-gotten gains.

Therefore, after working as a hundred or a thousand households for so long, and even going to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as an imperial minister, he could only save eight thousand taels of silver.

'By the way, the canal can go directly to Jizhou. If you ask Lianhuanwu for help, you can save a lot of losses. ’

'That's it, let's get a batch of food over first, and then pay back the rest slowly...'

He made up his mind, looked through the secret book in his hand again, and jumped directly to the exercise route map.

"The first level is to build soldiers and horses, the second level is to revive dead trees, the third level is to build towers from accumulated earth, the fourth level is as good as water, the fifth level is to set fire to a prairie land, and the sixth level is to create mutual growth and restraint."

"Is this the reverse training of the Five Elements?"

"Oh yes, it also has the function of balancing the five elements... brilliant!"

"The first step is to mobilize the troops. Qi travels through the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the hand, connects the Liver Meridian of Foot Jueyin to the lungs, connects the Yangming Large Intestine Meridian to Shaoshang below, and travels through the Great Zhoutian, Yin and Yang work together, and it will be completed in twelve weeks... "

"Visualize the rise of the fire to refine the metal, the moonlight to sharpen the soldiers and stop them, and breathe out the chilling air..."

"One round at a time, absorb a breath of killing energy into the Dantian, and condense the shape of the weapon..."

"It is best to start and end when day and night alternate, and it is best to start and end when autumn and winter are chilling..."

Yang Ge carefully browsed the exercise route map and supporting visualization methods and precautions over and over again.

I mentally compared it with "Flowing Snow Technique" and found that the practice method of "Five Elements Returning to Vitality" pays more attention to visualization and the external environment, giving it a feeling of unity between nature and man.

It is completely different from the purely technical practice method of "Falling Snow Technique"!

This made him couldn't help but think back to when Shen Fa told him about the realm of martial arts practice and the description of the state of return to truth: Tired Qi Transformation Peak!

He also once had a question: How can Qi turn into a peak?

Now this question has finally been answered: this "peak" does not refer to a real mountain, but to a sense of existence!

One's own true energy, the sense of existence in the vitality of heaven and earth.

In short: If everything in the world is the vitality of heaven and earth, then the practice of returning to the true state is for the warrior to constantly sharpen and strengthen his own true energy, so that his own true energy can become a sufficient building in this vast ocean of heaven and earth's vitality. The tall, straight, rock-solid mountain peaks support the warrior's own martial arts!

How to grow your true energy? How to become a mountain?

Let your own true energy interact and synchronize with the external world's vitality. In this process, you can use water grinding skills to intercept the heaven and earth's vitality that is the same as your own true energy, so as to achieve the purpose of strengthening your own true energy.

Yang Ge feels that the most essential difference between the Qi Sea Realm and the Guizhen Realm may not lie in the strength of the inner Qi and the True Qi, but in the difference in the charm of the two.

It's like a great master who practices the True Qi of Thick Earth. When his True Qi reaches the same frequency as the real Qi of Thick Earth... From the perspective of the vitality of heaven and earth, the True Qi in his body is like a mountain. , a mountain that does not change with the changes of spring, summer, autumn and winter, cloudy, sunny, rainy and snowy, and withered vegetation!

As for inner energy, no matter how far it has been cultivated, from the perspective of the vitality of heaven and earth, it is still a ball of illusory air without substance.

When you reach the pinnacle of the Return to True Realm, if you can go one step further...

Yang Ge could suddenly understand the power of a peerless master!

While memorizing the exercise route map, visualization diagrams, and mental formulas, he slowly understood the purpose of the exercise route map and visualization diagrams.

Time slipped away bit by bit, and the sky quickly darkened.

Seeing that it was almost the time when day and night alternated as described in the secret book, Yang Ge got up and put away the secret book and went into the house.

After a while, he came out holding a long and narrow Lengyue sword that resembled a Miao sword.

Regarding the chilling aura, he felt that the chilling aura on this sword was stronger than the chilling aura escaping between heaven and earth!

Holding the knife in both hands, he pulled out the round piles in the yard.

As he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, his energy and spirit slowly condensed. His heart felt empty, and the fiery red image of metal being tempered by fire appeared in his mind.

"Qi travels through the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the Hand..."

The whole body's true energy slowly rises with his thoughts, and slowly flows along the Taiyin and Lung Meridians of his hands to the Shaoshang points on the index fingers of his hands, and his body surface also lights up with a glimmer of light.

I don't know how long it took, but the Lengyue sword he held in his hands suddenly trembled slightly. It was clear that there was no influx of true energy, but there were wisps of cold light on the sword, and the glimmer on his body surface. They complement each other, as if one person and one knife merge into one.

One week, two weeks, three weeks...

The exercise road map gradually became more and more proficient, and the image of the fiery fire training in metal became more and more prosperous.

Yang Ge, who was holding Yuan Shouyi in his arms, felt that his heart was getting colder and colder, and his whole body was getting hotter and hotter...

From the outside, you can see that the pores all over his body are opening and closing according to the rhythm of his breathing, exhaling hot air, and the hot air condenses and does not disperse, surrounding him like a cocoon.

In the blink of an eye, twelve weeks have passed.

Yang Ge woke up from his trance and slowly finished his work.

When I opened my eyes again, I found that the sky was already filled with stars...

He stood up and moved his body, carefully feeling the Qi in his body, but he only felt that there was no major change except that there seemed to be a touch of coolness when exercising.

He thought about it, summoned up some vital energy and swung his knife towards the pool in the southeast corner of the courtyard.

Then I saw a flash of sword energy with a faint golden light, and a piece of gravel as big as a palm fell silently from the rockery standing in the center of the pool...

Upon seeing this, Yang Ge walked over quickly, picked up the piece of gravel, and carefully inspected the fracture. He found that the fracture was as smooth as glass without any burrs.

"Damn, there's something wrong with me!"

He rubbed the fracture of the gravel, and was amazed at the power of Gengjin Qi combined with sword Qi.

In the past, if he slashed with the knife, it would only explode a ball of stone chips on the rockery...

After such a horizontal comparison, he found that the Gengjin Qi was somewhat similar to the function of the sword intention.

The function of the sword intention is to condense the sword energy and enhance the power of the sword energy.

If it is Gengjin Zhenqi + Sword Intent + Sword Qi...

If you encounter a master of external skills like Chen Crazy Monk again, you will never be in the embarrassing situation where he can't even chop while someone is standing there!

"Ok, Ok!"

He threw the gravel casually, turned around and entered the house: "We are on the right path, the crispy assassin will be transformed into a half-meat daddy, just around the corner!"

He put away the cold moon sword and huddled into the bed without washing his face or feet.

Tomorrow I have to go to Beijing to kill that fellow!

Go to sleep, go to sleep...

…

The next day, as soon as the rooster crows, Yang Ge wakes up.

He got up and heated up the cold rice and dishes left over from yesterday, and had a hearty breakfast with Xiao Huang.

After cleaning up the pots and pans, he prepared enough chicken food for the chickens in the backyard. He then selected a few items from the new year's goods sent by Shen Fa yesterday, and sent them to Liu's house with Xiao Huang, asking the old shopkeeper to look after Xiao Huang for him. How many days.

Shopkeeper Liu, who was closed during the Chinese New Year holiday, readily agreed.

After leaving Liu's house, Yang Ge went to Shangyou's Yamen to pick up the horse.

Only when we got there did we find out that Fang Ke had transferred all the remaining horses on the right yesterday.

"Okay, okay, let's try to get rid of the fire under the cauldron with me, right?"

Yang Ge, who walked around the upper right institute for several times without finding out where Fang Ke had gone, gritted his teeth and said to Gu Tong, who was following behind him with a smile: "Tell that boy Fang Ke to find the attending doctor in advance, I Break his legs when you come back!"

After saying that, he held his neck and came out of the upper right door, left the city without looking back, and ran along the road to the capital, step by step!

‘Isn’t there just no horse? ’

‘I’ll go there with my legs on! ’

He was furious, swung his legs out into pieces, and rode away like a motorcycle at full power.

On the city wall, Fang Ke, who was in disguise, was hiding behind the female wall, holding a stack of arrows and watching Yang Ge fly away in a cloud of smoke. His legs were weak: "I want to die, I want to die, I want to die..."

Now, keep your word, second update!
