Chapter 28 28. Tongue
After inhaling the catnip, Jin Hujun stuck out his tongue and collapsed on the ground like an omelet.

The hind legs twitched from time to time.

Xu Qing, on the side, collected the tiger demon's body and put it into the Hu Tian Fu given to him by his master.

The space opened up inside this Hu Tian Fu is quite large, a bit larger than the yard where he lives now, and it is more than enough to hold the corpse of a tiger demon.

It is said that a tiger's entire body is a treasure. This tiger demon looks to weigh several thousand pounds. If it were handed over to the temple, it could be exchanged for a lot of Taoist merits.

What Xu Qing lacks now is Taoist skills.

It had cost him a total of nine blood-nourishing pills to open his ears and two orifices. Now he only had three left, which were barely enough to last him through the next half month of practice.

But it might be difficult to open the fifth orifice.

Originally, he wanted to continue doing errands for Fatty Li and Chen Ziming to gain Taoist merit in exchange for the blood-nourishing pill.

But his master arranged for him to be a Taoist priest who interprets divinations.

The Taoist priests who interpret divinations can also exchange for Taoist merits from the temple, but the amount is quite small.

After all, you don’t have to go down the mountain and won’t encounter any danger. You just need to chat with pilgrims, which doesn’t take much energy and you can also earn extra money.

The corresponding Taoist merit will naturally be less.

After collecting the tiger demon's corpse, Xu Qing saw that it was impossible for King Jinhu to recover in a short time, so he couldn't just leave King Jinhu alone.

So he simply practiced standing meditation and boxing on the spot.

Xinyiquan, whose full name is Xinyi Liuhequan.

The so-called mind and intention are the mind generating thoughts and the intention transforming into actions;
The so-called six harmonies include three internal and three external harmonies. The external three harmonies are the combination of shoulders and hips, elbows and knees, hands and feet; the internal three harmonies are the combination of heart and mind, mind and qi, and qi and strength.

There is also the theory of six postures, ten forms and twelve strengths, which are also excellent in martial arts and fighting.

If you want to unleash the corresponding power of this boxing style, your body and mind must be in place, and the strength must be circulated perfectly and freely.

It is not something that can be easily accomplished in just a few months or even years.

Xu Qing remembered Chen Jingxin's teachings and only used boxing to improve his physical condition, without excessively pursuing the power of boxing moves.

Especially since he was making rapid progress.

If there are enough resources, it is estimated that it will take another three months to break through the first level of refining essence. In this case, there is no reason to carefully ponder the changes in boxing moves.

His current approach is to use force to defeat skill.

About two cups of tea later.

Jin Hujun just came out of that state of ecstasy, yawned and got up from the ground, just as Xu Qing finished a set of boxing moves.

"This fruit has the effect of replenishing qi and blood. The effect is not worse than the blood-nourishing pill you took."

King Jin Hu held a bunch of small red fruits in his mouth and ran to Xu Qing's feet in small steps.

Xu Qing's eyes lit up when he heard that and he smiled.

Well, this trip was not in vain as I encountered a tiger demon and some fruits to replenish my qi and blood!

Think of this.

Xu Qing suddenly turned his head and looked at the spiritual plant that was destroyed beyond recognition by Lord Golden Tiger with burning eyes.

There were bunches of red fruits hanging on it, and now in his eyes, they were all blood-nourishing pills!
No wonder a tiger demon comparable to an eighth-grade warrior can be raised in this relatively barren place at the foot of the back mountain!

"Stop drooling and stop looking!" Jin Hujun rolled his eyes, "Those are not for you. I need to keep them to attract the next cat monster to guard this spiritual plant."

Xu Qing felt a little regretful, always feeling that he had missed out on countless Qi and Blood Pills.

"Ready to go back."

After saying that, Jin Hujun jumped into Xu Qing's arms.

Then, unexpectedly, he stretched out his chubby palm and pressed it on Xu Qing's forehead with a "pa" sound.

Suddenly.

Suddenly, a special spell appeared in Xu Qing's mind.

"This..." Xu Qing looked puzzled.

"Go back and master this spell." Golden Tiger Lord licked his paw, "Before you reach the Return to Void Realm, it can save your life when you encounter danger."

"Thank you, Mr. Jinhu!" Xu Qing immediately became serious and said sincerely.

What King Jin Hu had just given him was a summoning technique. If he encountered an enemy he could not defeat, he could summon King Jin Hu to his side from a distance, across thousands of mountains and rivers.

In this way, in addition to the three great magical talismans given by the master, he has another trump card that can save his life. This is a priceless secret skill!
"You're welcome. This is the reward you deserve for this trip."

That was true, but Xu Qing wasn't stupid enough to not understand -

It was obvious that Lord Jinhu had rushed to give it to him.

Otherwise, with the tiger demon's strength, it is hard to say whether it can withstand a slap from King Golden Tiger.

"Save it for the most critical moment, don't call me over all the time." Jin Hujun curled his lips, "Don't learn from your two senior brothers and sisters."

"Because you have the great magical talisman given by your master and the means to summon me, you are reckless and cause trouble everywhere."

"Yes, disciple understands."

"Okay, better than your two senior brothers and sisters." Jin Hujun stuck out his butt and stretched, "Let's go back."

Before leaving, Xu Qing calmly took out three incense sticks from the Hu Tian Fu.

Burn incense to pay respect to heaven and earth.

The tongue orifice is also known as Xuan Ying.

It is said in "The Key to Sex and Life" that the Xuan Ying acupoint is the sea of ​​body fluids and the source of life and metabolism, and it irrigates the whole body.

According to medical books,
The heart qi that flows under the tongue becomes kidney water, and the kidney fluid that flows under the tongue becomes spiritual fluid, which Taoists call golden juice and jade wine.

It overflows as sweet springs, gathers to fill the Huachi, disperses as body fluids, and descends as nectar, thus irrigating the internal organs and moistening the limbs.

Therefore, those who practice self-cultivation swallow saliva and exhale air, which they call "fresh water to nourish the spiritual roots."

The essence of the method practiced in the previous foundation-building stage is to swallow saliva and inhale air, regulate breathing and qi, and adjust the human body to a state almost like a newborn baby.

And now, more than ten days have passed since I went into the mountains with Lord Jin Hu.

With the help of the three blood-nourishing pills in his hand and the red fruit given by Lord Jin Hu, Xu Qing prepared to further open the tongue orifice.

The blood-nourishing pill swallowed in advance is transformed into a mild and pure medicinal power under the harmonization and refining of the spleen and stomach, and then the yang fire transformed from the true yang in the kidneys evaporates and dissipates into the blood and the bones.

The Qi and blood that had already reached their limit were about to overflow after being absorbed into the power of these medicines.

Xu Qing's mind was calm and his spirit was at peace, neither fast nor slow.

Guiding the overflowing qi and blood to flow into the Xuanying acupoint.

half an hour.

Xu Qing opened his tightly closed eyes and exhaled a breath of hot air.

The process was smooth and without any setbacks.

Now the tongue orifice has been opened, and the nine orifices have become five.

Xu Qing was overjoyed.

If compared with a martial artist, his current state is equivalent to that of an eighth-rank martial artist! He can walk sideways back to Ningyang Town!

Such a thought flashed through my mind.

Xu Qing couldn't help showing a funny expression on his face.

When one's strength reaches a certain level, the first thing one thinks of is how things are in the village or town.

But with his current status and strength, Xujia Village and Ningyang Town are ultimately too small to accommodate him.

Let go of these irrelevant thoughts.

Xu Qing kept his mind introverted, carefully feeling the changes in his body.

The heart opens up to the tongue, so the tongue is the external sign of the heart. When the tongue opens, the heart is also affected.

At this moment, Xu Qing only felt that his whole body was full of strength, the sound of his heartbeat was strong and powerful, and blood was pumped to his limbs and bones under this powerful thrust.

The essence and energy are constantly transformed and generated in the circulation of blood, endlessly.

Xu Qing is full of energy and has abundant blood circulation, which is reflected in his rosy complexion and moist and smooth skin. He has a good appearance.

Now he is even more handsome.

If he were to wear a white scholar's robe, he would really look like a jade-like person.

However, the result of opening the tongue orifice was not only a significant increase in qi and blood, and a preservation of beauty, but also a significant increase in Xu Qing's taste buds' sensitivity.

This gave him a lot of torture afterwards.
