Chapter 5: The Illiterate Local Peasant
After a night of healing, the two young girls had actually recovered about seventy to eighty percent. They took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then had a bit of breakfast prepared by the young boy
However, although the algorithms differ, and the cultivation paths vary, the ultimate goal remains the same, which is to cultivate the meridians
Although Ling Aoxue is currently recovering her true energy, guiding in this manner does not require much true energy; just a little is sufficient, and this is something she can still manage
Murong Qing looked at the young man in silence, not expecting such a situation to arise. A person with an exceptionally strong memory surprisingly had no comprehension ability at all. Was this a trick played by heaven on him, or did it mean that after granting him one thing, another was taken away? However, this seemed too extreme.
"... ... , how did he teach you?" Nonsense, I know he taught you, but how he taught you, that is what I am asking.
Soon, they understood why the young man was unable to cultivate his internal energy; it was because he knew nothing at all
Dai Mai
This surprised them greatly; even they found it difficult to remember everything at once. This indicates that the memory of this young man may surpass their own. If that is the case, how could he not cultivate internal energy?
After this explanation, Ling Aoxue felt a headache. She witnessed what was truly magical and also understood a phrase: playing the lute to a cow. This explanation held no meaning whatsoever, no matter how detailed it was; this young man simply could not comprehend it and remained just as confused.
Murong Qing, what do you think of this kid
"How did you learn those things before?" Murong Qing asked. Although the fundamentals are quite simple, one must possess some learning ability and also strive to understand. According to what was just said, he should not have been able to grasp even these basics.
Oh? This young man indeed requires practical teaching; after just one guidance, he is already able to cultivate his energy on his own. Ling Aoxue sensed that the youth had successfully learned the first step of this mental technique.
"A decent young man, with good potential, though somewhat peculiar..." Murong Qing said. The peculiarity she referred to was not the boy's behavior or character, which were relatively common among rural youths and in books. What she meant was the boy's inability to comprehend written words, yet possessing the ability to learn through practical demonstration, and once taught, he would grasp it immediately.
The so-called meridian is not literally a single line; it is more accurately described as a network of meridians. According to the eight extraordinary meridians, it is divided into eight meridian regions, with one main meridian accompanied by many smaller meridians. This gives rise to various cultivation paths, which are different methods of practice.
The customs of the small village are still very simple and honest, and most of what he has encountered are beautiful and pure things. Perhaps in the future, after he has gained experience, he will come to understand the malice of human hearts and the myriad changes of the world
"It is simply a matter of learning each move; whatever he does, I learn from it, and I have mastered it," the young man replied
In simple terms, he remembers it, but he does not know what it says inside. He does not even understand some simple words, let alone more difficult ones. If he could successfully cultivate this, it would be miraculous
Indeed, it is somewhat peculiar. He has learned to cultivate his energy, and his progress seems quite good. He quickly mastered the flow of energy, something that took me several days to achieve, yet he was able to accomplish it all at once.
The young man sat down cross-legged, then entered a meditative state following Ling Aoxue's posture, accepting her guidance. Soon, he felt the flow of energy within his body and the route of his qi circulation.
Therefore, the realm of the Nine Veins is also the most difficult to break through, requiring more time than the combined time spent on the previous eight veins
That is the way of teaching by example... Well then, sit down. I will now guide the flow of energy within you. You will feel the path of the energy and then try it yourself. I will be here to assist you in your practice. Ling Aoxue spoke again; it was time for her to take action. Murong Qing was not suited for this kind of task, as her true energy had a bit of destructive power.
Thus, Ling Aoxue began to explain those terms, as she had nothing else to do at the moment. She needed to wait for her true energy to recover, and since she was idle anyway, she thought it was a good use of her time. Moreover, this young man was her savior; although she could not repay a small favor with a great kindness, she would at least reciprocate in kind.
No wonder it cannot be accomplished; this is simply a blockhead. No, that head must be removed; it is essentially just a piece of wood
Oh
What pulse are you guiding
Throughout the night, the young man seemed to be captivated by the atmosphere of the library, continuously practicing his luck cultivation, while the two young women began their own luck healing. The entire night was spent in meditation, which also led the young man to abandon any thoughts of consummating the marriage
The ultimate path is to cultivate and open all meridians, which constitutes the nine meridians. However, this nine meridians does not refer to the numeral nine, but rather to an extreme number
Qi cultivation primarily involves absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth, circulating this energy through the meridians, and then storing it in the dantian. At the same time, one must gradually open the meridians, but initially, it is impossible to circulate energy throughout the entire body; no one would attempt to do so. Generally, one would select a specific meridian for cultivation, as one lacks the ability to circulate energy through all the meridians at once. Moreover, the path must be taken step by step for it to be smooth.
Do not understand
However, these matters are unrelated to ordinary people. It is already quite rare for ordinary individuals to encounter masters with four meridians or more. For someone like Xiaoyao, even seeing Brother Dahu would be regarded as encountering a formidable presence
This is also their only option now; it is unlikely that the young man will comprehend those words on his own, so they can only lead by example
What on earth is this matter, I do not expect this young man to possess the same level of comprehension and memory as hetushu.com, I only hope for him to have an ordinary level of understanding, and that would suffice, yet this young man completely lacks any ability to comprehend, not even a little bit
Indeed, his wedding night is merely about sleeping together. He is currently unaware of the matters between men and women. When he speaks of marrying a wife, it is essentially just for the sake of marrying a wife; he does not quite understand what purpose a wife serves once she is brought home.
After the Nine Veins, it is the forging of the indestructible golden body
"It was taught to me by Brother Ocean," the youth replied
"How can this be taught? I can no longer teach it! You take over!" Ling Aoxue was flustered and decided to abandon the matter. It was not that she was not putting in effort, but rather that her efforts had not yielded any visible results.
At this moment, they did not see the young man in the dilapidated temple, as if he had already left early in the morning, not knowing what he had gone to do
At the same time, there are many choices regarding the order of these eight meridians. Some individuals begin with the Belt Vessel, while others start with the Ren Vessel. Subsequently, one may cultivate the Du Vessel or possibly the Chong Vessel. Ultimately, it depends on the mental methods and personal preferences, and this will not affect the final path.
Do not understand
I do not know
Regardless of what Ling Aoxue says, the boy's response is generally like this
