Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 271
Qin Zhiyong has been doing it all the time, but he just can't do it.

He practiced so devoutly in order to explore the true meaning of life and pursue immeasurable wisdom.

If it is like a sweeping monk, in order to pursue the "Tao" in his heart, he gave up his life.

Chao Wen Dao Xi can die.

It's okay to touch the "Tao" in your heart, but if you don't find the "Tao" in your heart, and put your life on the line, it will be a big loss.

What's more, Qin Zhiyong felt that pursuing wisdom and exploring the true meaning of life does not require giving up one's own life.At least, giving up life to pursue the 'Tao' is not the only way.

However, Qin Zhiyong was indeed shocked when the sweeping monk learned from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and used his life to cross the bloody "devils" Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo.

The sweeping monk and Qin Zhiyong each have their own persistence and different ideas, so we cannot say who is right and who is wrong.

Perhaps none of them were wrong.

Qin Zhiyong glanced at the big masters around him, and said solemnly: "We all heard what Master said just now. He risked his life to save Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo. I promised Master that I would not trouble Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo any more, and let the The two of you can stay in Shaolin Temple to meditate and meditate on Buddhism. I want the past grievances to pass away with the wind and come to an end. Do you have any opinions?"

In the past, Qin Zhiyong had a superficial understanding of the phrase "when is it time to repay grievances".Now he understands this sentence better.

The heads of the various sects looked at each other, and finally reached an agreement, saying: "We all follow Mr. Qin's opinion."

Among those killed by Xiao Yuanshan were their friends and relatives, and Murong Bo was the mastermind behind the scenes.If conditions permit, they can't wait to tear the two of them into pieces.But now that Qin Zhiyong spoke, they couldn't obey even if they didn't want to.

Qin Zhiyong bowed slightly to everyone, and said: "Everyone is generous, thank you Qin Zhiyong."

Qin Zhiyong looked at Xiao Feng again: "King Xiao."

Xiao Feng said respectfully: "Mr. Qin."

Qin Zhiyong said: "Hand over the secrets of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick Technique. The beggar gang's unique skills must remain in the beggar gang."

The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick Technique are the most powerful martial arts of the Beggar Clan, and they have been practiced by the beggar gang leaders in person.As for the Chuangong elders, it's okay to pass on some other martial arts.Even the elders who have passed on these two unique skills do not know how to pass them on to others?
Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Okay."

Xiao Feng took out two pieces of parchment from his bosom, which were written all over.It is the secret book of the two exercises.

Qin Zhiyong took the parchment, waved to a little beggar behind Elder Xu of the Beggar Gang, and said, "Come here."

Elder Xu quickly said, "Goofy, hurry up, Mr. Qin is calling you."

The little beggar walked up to Qin Zhiyong timidly, looking very restrained.He knew that the young gentleman in front of him was a real big shot, a strong man respected by everyone in the world.Even Xiao Feng, the former head of the beggar gang, had to maintain enough respect in front of him, not daring to be presumptuous in the slightest.

Qin Zhiyong said kindly: "Young man, what's your name? Where is your home? Why do you want to be a beggar?"

The little beggar regained his composure and said, "Back to Mr. Qin, my name is Gouzi. My hometown is Hongjiagou. I am the seventh child in my family. My parents can't support us by farming. I have been begging since I was six years old. Join the gang."

Qin Zhiyong nodded secretly.

Everything the little beggar said was the truth, not a single lie.

Qin Zhiyong could sense that the little beggar had a very kind heart and a gentle temperament.In order not to burden his parents, he came out to beg for food when he was six years old.Compared with Kong Rong, Rangli's character is more valuable.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Gouzi? This name is not good. Your family is in Hongjiagou, and you are the seventh in the family, so you can call it 'Hong Qi' from now on. You can learn the Eighteen Palms of Subduing Dragon and the Dog-hitting Stick." Learn, learn here."

The boy "Hong Qi" was very excited.

He never thought that one day, he would have the opportunity to learn the two great secrets of the beggar gang.

However, Hong Qi did not accept the exercise, but lowered his head and said embarrassingly: "Mr. Qin, I can't learn it. I... can't read."

Qin Zhiyong said with a gentle face: "I can't read? It doesn't matter if I can't read. I can't read. There are ways to study the law. Come, look up at me."

When Hong Qi raised his head and his eyes met Qin Zhiyong's, he suddenly felt that the surrounding environment had changed.

Hong Qi was sitting in the school, and a master was teaching him how to read.

Two years later, Hong Qi learned three thousand characters.The parchment with the skills written on it suddenly appeared on the desk, and Hong Qi could finally learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick.

Another ten years later, Hong Qi completely mastered the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick.

Fifteen years have passed since Hong Qi's spiritual consciousness was disturbed by Qin Zhiyong's spiritual power, but in reality, only a few breaths have passed.

The flow rate of time in the conscious spiritual world is completely different from that in reality.

A dream for a hundred years is a very common thing.

It's a pity that Qin Zhiyong's cultivation is not enough.He can only help others "one dream for a hundred years", but he can't do it if he wants to practice in his dream.

Seeing that Hong Qi was glared at by Qin Zhiyong, everyone fell into a daze, and then the sweat all over his body kept coming out.

The high-intensity activity of consciousness consumed a lot of energy in Hong Qi's body.

Hong Qi woke up, saw that he was still in Shaolin Temple, still standing in front of Qin Zhiyong, and said in shock: "Mr. Qin, was I dreaming just now?"

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "Dream? Real? Who can tell the difference. For others, Hong Qi, you are just a dream. But for you, the experience just now is real. Jianglong Shi Have you already learned the Eight Palms and the Dog Beating Stick?"

Hong Qi nodded and said, "I have learned."

Hong Qi is a martial arts prodigy of the beggar gang.

In terms of martial arts talent, Xiao Feng is only slightly better than Hong Qi.

Hong Qi practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms in public.Although his internal strength is still shallow, he has already grasped the essence and artistic conception of the palm technique.When rehearsing the dog-beating stick method, he also played the artistic conception.

Qin Zhiyong nodded secretly.

Hong Qi is still lacking in strength, but he is not bad in artistic conception.It's like an old man and old lady who has no strength, but they can practice Tai Chi very well, with the true meaning of flowing water.

As long as Hong Qi improves his internal strength, he can become a top expert in the arena.

After Hong Qi practiced martial arts, he stood in front of Qin Zhiyong, a little apprehensive, afraid that he might not practice well.

Qin Zhiyong smiled and said: "Hong Qi, you have practiced very well. You have mastered the essence of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick Technique. After you have mastered these two martial arts, the Beggar Gang will have successors."

Qin Zhiyong took Wang Yun down Shaoshi Mountain.

Hong Qi knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Qin Zhiyong's back.

Qin Zhiyong has the grace of rebuilding Hong Qi.

Great kindness and great virtue are hard to repay in a lifetime.

"Mr. Qin."

Xiao Feng's voice came from behind.

Qin Zhiyong and Wang Yun stopped, looked back, and saw Xiao Feng chasing up with Ah Zi.

Qin Zhiyong said, "Brother Xiao, what else do you need?"

Xiao Feng said: "Mr. Qin, Ah Zhu and I plan to entrust Ah Zi to you to teach."

Qin Zhiyong shook his head and said, "I don't plan to accept any more students. Brother Xiao, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to Suzhou Huichuntang to find me. Farewell."

Xiao Feng sighed secretly, and said: "Mr. Qin, go slowly. Miss Wang Yun, go slowly."

If he wanted to send Ah Zi to study under Qin Zhiyong's school, he might have no chance.It can only be blamed on Ah Zi's lack of luck.

…………

Xiao Feng took Ah Zi back to Liao Kingdom.

Four months later.

Yelu Hongji decided to ask Xiao Feng to take [-] cavalry to march south to attack Song Dynasty.

Xiao Feng sternly refused, and secretly sent Ah Zi back to the Central Plains, asking Ah Zi to tell Qin Zhiyong about it.

but.

Qin Zhiyong is retreating and cultivating in Huichun Hall.Before leaving the customs, no one is allowed to disturb.

Qin Zhiyong's body and longevity have reached the limit of ordinary people, and his practice has been completed at this stage.He decided to sort out his spiritual practice experience, so that the spiritual consciousness can break through the confinement of the body and form the power of thought.
