Chapter 29. Beautiful Women Fighting
The next day.
The light rain in Tianjie is as moist as cake.
It is March now. There has been a lot of rain in recent days, which has continued for several days. The Huaihe River area and the north and south of the Yangtze River have officially entered the spring flood season.
Xu Qing had wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to draw a few water-related talismans early in the morning.
But after receiving the message from his master through the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Note, he immediately ran to Taoist Qingxu's courtyard.
"Disciple has met the master!"
As soon as he saw his master Taoist Qingxu, Xu Qing respectfully bowed in the Taoist style.
"Not bad, not bad. Five of the nine orifices have been opened." Taoist Qingxu nodded slightly. "There is no need to be so polite between you and me as a master and disciple. It seems strange."
"Yes." Xu Qing said respectfully.
Taoist Qingxu held King Golden Tiger in his arms and gently stroked its forehead with his palm.
"Disciple, do you know why your master called you here?"
Xu Qing shook his head.
In fact, he had been a disciple for so long, but he had met Taoist Qingxu only a few times.
After all, he is the head who is in charge of the affairs of the temple. Moreover, when he reaches his level, he occasionally goes into seclusion to practice, and months or even years slip through his fingers.
Fortunately, Xu Qing had already made good progress in his practice of refining essence and did not need any guidance, so his need for a master was not prominent for the time being.
"It's nothing serious, I just wanted to see how you are doing lately." Taoist Qingxu smiled and said, "I am very busy with my work and have less time to teach you."
"Now that I have some free time, I thought of asking you to come over. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
"Forehead"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment.
You can't say that he has no doubts now.
During this period of time, whether he was refining his body, making talismans, or practicing the techniques recorded in the exercises he had just learned, everything went smoothly without any obstacles.
Of course there are difficulties, but they can be solved as long as you work hard.
Taoist Qingxu looked at Xu Qing's expression and understood everything.
Alas, it is annoying when disciples have poor talents, but it feels like being a master does not give me any sense of accomplishment when disciples have too much talent.
No.
Wouldn't this not demonstrate his ability as a master?
"No doubts?" Taoist Qingxu's eyes were gentle, but with a hint of sharpness. "The great way is boundless, who dares to claim to know it all?"
"Do you know the difference between the body-refining method I observe and the body-refining method of martial artists?"
Xu Qing thought for a moment and said, "From my perspective, the body training method emphasizes training and nourishment over fighting, and emphasizes qi over the body. Martial artists are different, and are the opposite of us."
"That's not wrong, but it falls into a rut and doesn't really get to the point."
"Please teach me, Master."
Xu Qing rolled his eyes, and he probably understood in his heart that it would be better for him not to be stubborn at this time.
Taoist Qingxu said with great relief: "Not bad."
"In fact, in my opinion, the difference between the body-building method and the martial arts method is only the one of seeking peace of mind."
"Thinking of the spirits is to use the power of the spirits to achieve a peaceful and tranquil state of mind, thereby mobilizing the qi of the five internal organs in the body, consolidating essence and preserving life."
"The body and mind are inactive, but the spirit and energy will naturally be active."
"This is also why when I accept disciples at Yuan Fu Temple, I only require them to have good physiques, and I place more emphasis on the talent of character."
"At a low level, martial arts do not require any thought. All you need to do is to train your body, temper your physique, and accumulate qi and blood. You follow the path of becoming a saint with your flesh and proving the truth with strength."
"Speaking of this, I have to remind you that it is best to keep your yang energy from leaking out during the refining of essence. If your yang energy leaks out, you will have to endure many more hardships."
"Only by keeping enough in the bedroom can you keep yourself alive and healthy."
"Be careful, remember!"
"The disciple understands."
Taoist Qingxu was satisfied when he saw an expression of great benefit on Xu Qing's face.
"By the way, how does it feel to be a fortune teller?"
"That's great. It can be done with just a few words." Xu Qing chuckled, "And there's extra income."
"Just be patient and do it." "You are advancing too fast. Your master asked you to be a Taoist priest who interprets fortunes because he hopes that your state of mind can keep up with the speed of your cultivation."
"Meet more people, understand their joys and sorrows, and use the seven emotions and six desires of the world to sharpen your state of mind."
"It's hard to feel what you're feeling just by listening, and the effect is a little off, but you haven't reached the stage of focusing on sexual skills yet, so this is just right."
Xu Qing didn't expect that this small action of his master had such a profound meaning.
really.
There is still a big difference between having a master and not having a master.
When it comes to the specific details of cultivation, he may be able to go smoothly all the way relying solely on his skills and talent, but his control on a larger scale is still lacking in finesse.
"Also, keep those copper coins and don't spend them carelessly. You may need them in the future." Taoist Qingxu specifically pointed out.
"Master, are those copper coins special?" Xu Qing asked.
"Well, that can barely be considered as incense money. It can play a huge role in some special places. You should keep it and don't use it carelessly."
"Disciple knows."
Xu Qing was startled.
Originally, he wanted to use the money he earned as a Taoist fortune teller to sell a house in Huai'an County at the foot of the mountain and bring his family over.
It seems that these cannot be touched for the time being, and we can only start with Fatty Li.
"It's nothing, just go back and practice."
"Yes, Master." Xu Qing took his leave.
"Oh, this disciple is really a worry." Taoist Qingxu sighed.
"Come on, he was born to be an immortal and possesses great supernatural powers. As long as he doesn't fall into the evil way, he will always be at the top of the cultivation world in the future." Lord Jinhu said unhappily.
"Didn't I teach you that?" Taoist Qingxu glanced at him with a hint of pride in his eyes.
Jinhujun rolled his eyes.
"By the way, has the news been confirmed?" After a moment's silence in the room, Jin Hujun asked suddenly.
"Not yet." Taoist Qingxu shook his head, "But I have a feeling that when the spring and summer flood peak arrives, the dragon in Hongze Lake may be unable to resist crossing the river and try to transform into a real dragon."
"That would cause a huge flood, wouldn't it?"
"Hmm." Taoist Qingxu sighed, "I feel sorry for the hardships people live in."
Coming out from Taoist Qingxu’s courtyard.
On the way, I bumped into Fatty Li who was in a hurry and didn't know where he was going.
"Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"It's you, Xu Qing. Go, go!"
Xu Qing grabbed Fatty Li and said, "Where are you going? What happened? Tell us clearly before you leave."
"Wait a minute, how come you look even more handsome?!" Fatty Li's eyes widened, "This doesn't make sense!"
"You can do it later. This is the effect of reaching a certain level of body refining."
"Really?" Fatty Li's eyes lit up.
"Yes. So, where are you taking me?"
"Go to the martial arts arena, there are beauties fighting!" Fatty Li's tone was very excited.
Xu Qing said, "Superficial."
When Fatty Li heard this, his face suddenly darkened.
"What are you standing there for? Let's go." Xu Qing ran towards the martial arts arena without looking back.
"I, you..." Fatty Li's face flushed, and he couldn't help cursing as he watched Xu Qingyuan walk away, "Xu Qing, you hypocritical hypocrite!"
When Xu Qing and Fatty Li arrived at the martial arts arena, the place was filled with men.
Xu Qing looked around.
Where are the beauties? Where are the beauties? He wants to watch beauties fight!
He didn't rush here just to see these rough guys!
"Xu Qing, you bastard, have you made another breakthrough? Why do you feel like you're running faster?" Fatty Li caught up with him, panting.
"Where are the beauties you mentioned fighting? Why can't I see them?" Xu Qing asked hurriedly.
