The Sword of Smiling and Proud

Chapter 121 The Mystery of the Imprint on the Chest

"The five elements of the human body, the heart belongs to fire, the liver belongs to wood, the spleen belongs to earth, the kidney belongs to water, and the lungs belong to metal. The five elements have their own positions. This is the basic concept of the five internal organs and five elements."

"The idea of ​​meditation is to visualize the characteristics of the five internal organs, which is easier to understand and convenient for practice."

A word of truth is true, and thousands of books are false.Zhenyangzi then gave Guan Yuan the experience of how to visualize the five internal organs
"Heart, lung, yang, can be seen as a monkey tempered by fire. The liveliness of the monkey corresponds to the fire of the heart, that is, the ape of the heart. It is often said that the ape of the heart refers to this place. The ape of the heart is lively and needs to travel around. It needs experience to settle down, so it is also called a walker."

"The liver and kidney yin qi, the five elements correspond to the water hai. This yin qi is described as a pig, greedy and insidious, specializing in the seven emotions and six desires, lustful and reckless. This pig needs to be strictly restrained and must keep the precepts, so it is called Bajie. Lust is a natural instinct, not a bad thing, what is needed is restraint, knowing what can be done and what can't be done, so the goal of the pig's cultivation is to understand the word "capable"."

"The relationship between yin and yang is incompatible with each other, and a balance point is needed, so the role of the spleen comes out. The energy of the spleen, the five elements belong to the earth, that is, sand. It is the thing that reconciles the heart yang and kidney yin, so it is called sand monk. .When yin and yang are out of balance, it is responsible for reconciling the balance of the two."

"The theory of the five internal organs and five elements seems to be easy to understand, but it is also the essence of our Taoist qi practitioners who have summed up many times for thousands of years."

After hearing this, Guan Yuan nodded secretly. In his previous life, he thought this theory was a fabrication. Later, when he came to Xiaoao World, he read the Taoist classics and found out that there were Taoist scriptures that put forward a similar point of view.

Under the guidance of Zhenyangzi, Guan Yuan calmed down and began to visualize for the first time.

The heart belongs to fire, the heart opens to the tongue, and it is red in the body, like a beating flame.

The liver belongs to wood, and the liver opens to the eyes.Hidden in the abdomen, it is emerald green, like a piece of evil jade.

The spleen belongs to soil, and the spleen opens into the mouth.Like a little piece of topaz hiding next to the liver.

The lungs belong to gold, and the lungs open into the nose.The breathing is like the white mist, with regular ups and downs.

The last kidney belongs to water, and the kidney opens into the ear.Below the dantian, it was pitch black, like a pool of deep water, with no bottom to be found.

It was the first time for Guan Yuan to use meditation to feel the five internal organs. He felt strange and immersed in it, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

He tried to activate his innate power at the same time to see if this conception would help the operation of internal power.

As the internal force moved Zhou Tian, ​​he saw the figurative places of the five internal organs brighten and flash one by one as the internal breath went.I can't feel where the meridians are, only a faint feeling.

After the heart and lung monkey's inner breath was turned on, it became more active.The liver and kidney Hai pig also seemed to move its buttocks, which was very interesting.

However, this idea can only be seen, it cannot control the operation of the inner breath, let alone change the operation route.After watching it for a while, Guan Yuan got tired of it.

No wonder Huashan's martial arts inheritance doesn't pay much attention to this idea. It is indeed of little help to the cultivation of internal strength, but it is only helpful for Taoist priests to meditate.

The Huashan School has only passed down a few generations of orthodoxy since Guangningzi, and all of them are lay disciples who have never become monks and specialize in martial arts.Swordsmanship and internal strength can't be learned, let alone practice this idea.

Guan Yuan got up to collect his power, while Zhenyangzi sighed,
"Junior brother, you are also considered to be gifted in cultivating the Tao. It is really rare to have such an achievement in the first visualization."

"Hahahaha, if you don't want to stay with me in Sanqing Mountain, junior brother, let's search for immortals and ask together."

Guan Yuan knew he was making fun of him, but he didn't take it seriously.If I had been practicing on the top of this mountain all year round, meditating and chanting scriptures, I would not be able to persist.This positive feedback is much smaller than practicing martial arts, not to mention the illusory thing like Xunxian Wenwen, Guan Yuan came from later generations, it is really hard to believe.

At night, after dinner, Guan Yuan found a boulder to watch the moon.The weather is good, the moon is thin, and the air on the top of the mountain is slightly clammy and cold.He is in good spirits and sings to the moon.

I don’t know the month when I am young, so I call it a white jade plate.

Suspected Yaotai mirror again, flying in the white clouds.

Immortals have two feet hanging down, and osmanthus trees form clusters.

The white rabbit smashed the medicine and asked who to eat with.

……

After reciting the song "Gu Lang Yue Xing", Guan Yuan sat down on the boulder, leaned back, propped his hands behind his back, closed his eyes and meditated.

Zhenyangzi and the two Xiaodao boys still had evening classes, so they didn't come out. It was rare for them to be alone, so Guan Yuan enjoyed it a lot.

When he got up and was about to go back, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and stopped in place.

Guan Yuan remembered the golden finger heart mark that had been helping him practice before.When he was practicing inner strength, he also tried to feel the mark with his inner breath, but he didn't find any trace.Tried several times and gave up.

Last time in the desert, after the imprint disappeared together with the gray broken jade, there was no trace of it.But Guan Yuan is sure that this imprint is still on him, otherwise he would not have absorbed the essence of Tianshan Snow Lotus strangely and pushed his innate skills to great success.

Since the inner breath of innate qi cannot be felt, is this Taoist idea okay?
As soon as he said it, Guan Yuan sat down on the boulder, put his heart on the sky, and began to watch the interior.

Although there is no Zhenyangzi to protect the Dharma, this place is secluded and there are no birds or beasts, so it can be regarded as a good place for cultivation.

Immersed in the internal organs again, Guan Yuan saw the five elements and colors of the internal organs again, and began to search carefully within the chest area.

The place on the chest is the place of the heart and lungs, because you can see the beating of the heart in the thick white mist.With every breath, clouds rise and fall.

Guan Yuan seemed to be moving forward in the mist, exploring carefully, he remembered that there was a faint silver light like moonlight before the imprint, which was especially easy to hide in the white mist.

Finally, at the junction between the heart and lungs, in a cloud of white mist, he felt a little different.

The fog here is almost condensed and cannot dissipate.Guan Yuan observed carefully, and finally saw the imprint that he had been thinking about.

The true face of this mark is also a piece of broken jade, which is similar to the piece of broken jade obtained from Lama Sangbu.One big and one small, silvery white.It may have been hidden in the body before, so it can't be seen that it is a piece of jade.

The piece of gray broken jade that disappeared is also here, and it is stuck together with the silver broken jade. They are upside down and fit perfectly.

When the gray jade disappeared, Guan Yuan felt a burning sensation, but somehow it was still gray, the mystery of which is unspeakable.

At this time, the two pieces of broken jade are connected end to end, together, like the mark of Tai Chi, still slowly rotating.

Guan Yuan has a strange feeling, this scene is a bit like the legend of the Pisces jade pendant passed down in the previous life.It's just that my own broken jade still has the effect of absorbing moonlight and nourishing meridians.

He tried to use his innate skill to see if there was any change in the broken jade, but unfortunately, it didn't work at all.The pair of broken jades seemed to be ignoring their internal energy, and even the white mist around them began to glow faintly, but they remained motionless, even the speed of rotation did not change.

I don't know if the gray jade entered into the body, restraining the function of the silver jade, or if the two of them were always like this, but they just returned to their original state.
