Chapter 97 Borrowing Flowers to Offer Buddha
After Shen Yuanjing and Zhou Botong taught each other martial arts, the sun had already set in the west. When the four of them returned to the manor, they saw Hong Qigong wandering around in the hall, looking impatient.
After seeing Huang Rong, he calmed down and said, "Rong'er, you're back just right now. It's time for dinner now. The beggars have been working for you for a day. They only ate some side dishes at lunch and their stomachs are hungry. You can cook quickly and cook a few side dishes randomly. I'll fill my stomach."
On Peach Blossom Island, there are no shortage of cakes, pastries, melons, fruits, and jujube kernels. If he is hungry, he will have his own servants to cook. He said so miserably that he is nothing more than thinking about the food made by Huang Rong. She doesn't even point it out. She smiled sweetly and turned around and went into the kitchen.
After nightfall, Huang Rong went to her father's study. Sure enough, Huang Yaoshi was still studying. She put down a plate of snacks, added another cup of tea for him, and pressed her shoulders.
Huang Yaoshi closed his eyes and enjoyed it. He couldn't help but recall that when his daughter was young, he learned this trick without a teacher. Whenever he made a mistake, he would be soft-hearted and unable to blame him. So he sighed and said, "Tell me, what are you thinking?"
Huang Rong smiled and said, "Today, Master came for me. He is arrogant and doesn't speak well. Don't be angry."
"Hmph." He replied, "After growing up, I learned to deceive and help outsiders. You are just afraid that your master will offend others, so I can't take him, so I vent my anger on Guo Jing."
She didn't argue, but laughed, gently picked up the teacup and put it in her father's hand.
"I am at your master's age, and my martial arts skills are far less than him, but I am still a hundred times more arrogant. I am like this. How can I make others not arrogant?" Huang Yaoshi sighed again and said, "You relax, I will not make things difficult for Guo Jing. If you lose, you will lose. If you go to secretly plot, do you still have the face of Dongxie?"
Huang Rong was relieved. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pinched a piece of plum blossom cake, and sent it to his mouth. It seemed like when she was three or five years old, she always lay on her father's back like this, chatting non-stop.
After the father and daughter had a private conversation, she remembered the daytime incident. She couldn't learn the two magical skills, and with her intelligence, it was a rare thing. She didn't realize it at that time, but when she was alone later, she couldn't help but feel some setbacks and wanted to ask her father to help.
She said, "Dad, 'The visceral spirit is strong, the energy sinks into the dantian, it is impartial, and it appears and disappears.' How to do it?"
Huang Yaoshi thought for a moment and said, "No thoughts or worries, concentrate on the mind, use intention but not force; the vitality sinks into the dantian and slowly descends, like the sea of qi flowing through the limbs, standing still, between intention or unintentional."
"What does '28% achievement, black rabbits are mixed in harmony' mean?"
"The qi of the heart and kidney must not be biased, rise and fall together, the universe and the world are harmonious and integrated."
Huang Rong asked, and Huang Yaoshi answered. He only said that his daughter did not understand Taoist slander, so he explained it to her. After that, it became more and more profound, but he had already fallen into it and could not notice something strange.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour later, when I explained the sentence "The movement of the mechanism will not leave the emptiness, this emptiness is very empty, it is an emptiness that is not empty", the oil lamp suddenly became smaller because no one tweaked its core. Huang Yaoshi was shocked and woke up and said angrily: "This is the best Taoist skill. Where did you learn it? How can you tell me at will?"
Seeing that his face was not good, Huang Rong said aggrievedly: "Today, Master teaches the old naughty boy Tai Chi. I was listening. I couldn't understand anything except some simple ones, and I didn't know how to practice them. Daddy, when did I become as stupid as Brother Jing?"
Just now, between the two of them, she told most of the essence of Tai Chi. With the ability of Huang Yaoshi, it was not difficult to restore it. It was just that he was so arrogant that he was reluctant to practice the second volume of the "Nine Yin Sutra" for several years. Now that he has obtained Shen Yuanjing's magical skills, it is like stealing, so how can he feel at ease?
He also wanted to scold him, but he saw that his daughter looked pitiful under the oil lamp, and was soft-hearted, and said angrily: "Are you worried that I was not good at martial arts, and I lost my face when I was defeated in the second Huashan Sword Competition? Or did that boy Guo Jing not understand, have you learned to tell him?"
Huang Rong smiled and fiddled with the wick. The room became brighter again. Huang Yaoshi sighed: "If you do this, your master will know about it. I am afraid you will be so angry that you have to clean up the portal."
She disagreed and said, "The master has so many magical skills that he can't learn even if he is just a martial arts. How could he care? I asked him before, if he was not around, who would ask me for guidance from the sword technique, he would ask me to find you. Brother Jing is the same. He asked Qi Gong with his palm technique, but he didn't take it seriously. He said that he knew the roots and the bottom of his mind, and he didn't need to be careful."
Huang Yaoshi snorted coldly, after all, he felt something was wrong. He drove her out and thought for a while before blowing out the light.
...
The next morning, Huang Yaoshi was about to apologize to Shen Yuanjing, but saw the other party take out a stack of white paper and hand it over.
He took it and saw that the top page had a few big words "Nine Yin Scriptures" written. He was shocked and looked up.
Shen Yuanjing said: "I came in a hurry and did not prepare gifts. Besides, the Lord of Huangdao is noble in character, so he must not look down on those common things. Hearing that the Lord of Huangdao wanted to obtain this book to comfort his beloved wife, he borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and regarded it as a betrothal gift."
He said to Zhou Botong again: "Brother Zhou, is it appropriate to deal with this?"
Zhou Botong ate the pastry in a big mouthful and said vaguely: "If you can remember it, it is your ability, and I don't care. Besides, I still believe what Huang Laoxie said to burn it."
Huang Yaoshi bowed deeply to the two and said, "Thank you Mr. Shen and Brother Botong for your accomplishment." After that, he took out a white cloth and a porcelain bottle that had been prepared from his arms.
Shen Yuanjing took it and opened the white cloth to see that there was a human skin inside, with many words thorns on it. Then he heard him say, "This is the second volume of the scriptures. Please copy three copies by Mr. Shen. You leave one, one with Brother Botong, and the remaining one for me to burn for my deceased wife. The human skin is also for my unworthy disciple. After all, it is the thought that Xuanfeng left for her."
Everyone was very happy with this distribution. He pointed to the porcelain bottle and said, "No medicine for healing is more than that of Taohua Island's Impermanence Pill, it is considered a return gift."
Shen Yuanjing responded and took out two copies of the "Nine Yin Scriptures" in the evening and divided them into two.
Huang Yaoshi took it, and one day he took Huang Rong and Guo Jing to worship his deceased wife and burned it in front of her coffin, which was considered a wish.
After Zhou Botong obtained the scriptures, he followed Wang Chongyang's will and burned them. He stayed on the island for a few days before returning to the Central Plains. Hong Qigong ate the delicious food made by Huang Rong for more than ten days, and then left reluctantly because of important things.
Shen Yuanjing passed on the chapter of Yi Jin and Bones forging, and then began to retreat. Although the chapter of healing is most suitable for new injuries, he only needs to learn from the concepts in it for reference.
Huang Rong still refused to work harder and played all day long. Only Guo Jing, who was diligent and hardworking day after day, changed his impression of Huang Yaoshi's on him a lot.
