Chapter 10 Shengke Qifang
Yan Li has been very clear since she woke up from serious injury. The memories in her mind are not bizarre travels, nor are they rebirths that are difficult to explain, nor are they mysterious and strange soul devouring and fusion.
That is my past life.
That is the highest achievement of enlightenment, practice, and attaining enlightenment in my previous life - the immortality of the soul.
Practicing Taoism, this word is familiar to you whether it is on the earth in the previous life or the martial arts world in this life. However, if someone asks: What is the great way? What is the cultivation of Taoism?
I am afraid that most high-ranking monks will not be able to answer.
Some people may say that in order to gain power, practicing Taoism can lead mountains and seas, fly to the sky and hide from the earth, and dominate life and death.
Some people may also say that it is for immortality and forever to take power.
But in Yan Li's opinion, both answers are stupid.
Yes, it's stupid.
If you want to hold mountains and seas, you can do it with a train; if you want to fly and hide in the sky, you can complete it with a plane; if you want to dominate life and death, you can destroy the world.
If countless wise men had pursued this kind of thing since ancient times, then the earth in the 21st century had already been done, but which of the great scientists who created these scientific miracles had attained enlightenment?
Immortality?
This is even more ridiculous! As an ordinary human being, it only takes hundreds of years to make him completely despair about life.
He would use the first hundred years to watch all his relatives and friends aging and dying, becoming a picture in the collection and a faint shadow in his memory; then use his second hundred years to forget all this, walk out of sorrow, and spend his third hundred years in loneliness.
Maybe an immortal person will make new friends and have new relatives, but these people will still age, die, and eventually be forgotten.
Human beings are social creatures, and immortality is just torture for ordinary people.
Tao is a pursuit, and even more so it is an enlightenment.
The name of Taoist practitioner is actually not suitable. Yan Li prefers to call himself "seeker".
He spent his whole life looking for those unspeakable existences in the vast world, and used these unspeakable truths to confirm himself, achieving indelible insights.
These insights are like the bright moon, shining through the ages.
The Tao can be told, but it is not the constant Tao.
When a person has this kind of insight, he is as if he has grasped a trace of the great way. No matter how complicated things are in front of him, they are as simple as 1+1=2, as if there is no secret in this world.
If he goes further, his spirit will be transcendent and sublimated, and even the cycle of time will not erase its mark.
This state is called "primordial spirit" in Taoism.
Yan Li had this state in his previous life. At that time, except for ordinary martial arts based on his body, he had no extraordinary power, but he could enter the gap with no thickness in his life and be invincible.
Even after his physical body aging and dying, memories can awaken themselves in the cycle of reincarnation.
And this kind of immortal ability is just a by-product of the seeking Tao.
Therefore, not to mention that Yan Li had a lot of experience in traditional Chinese and Western medicine in his previous life, if he had not known anything about the drugs and poisons in the world in front of him, he would not have to seek medical treatment at all, and he could take care of himself.
Even if he had never really been exposed to any medicine, it would be just a matter of reading the "Four Spirits Medical Book" through.
And this efficiency is incredibly shocking in the eyes of ordinary people.
"Two, I've finished reading the "Four Spirits Medical Classics".
After the words came, the two old men were stunned at the same time.
Old Ding Can is willing to believe in Yan Li's character. But... Master Yan's understanding is too evil, right?
Xue Changsheng was surprised for a moment, immediately raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Don't mess with me, do you think I am a fool? Let me ask you, the qi is in the pulse, the evil is on the upper part, and the turbidity is in the middle..."
He said five or six questions in one breath, all from the "Four Spirits Medical Documents", which include memorization, annotation, and detailed research and medical theory analysis. Although there are not many problems, they include all aspects of medical skills, and their scope is so wide that even his disciples are secretly talking.
Yan Li did not show any weakness, and answered casually: "The twelve meridians and 365 meridians, the blood and qi pipes are dry and running on the surface, the essence and yang energy are dark when it goes up to the eyes, the different qi is listening when it goes up to the ears, the primitive qi is smelly when it comes from the nose, the turbid qi comes from the stomach, the lips and tongue are smelly when it goes up to the taste. The body fluids of the qi are all fumigated on the surface, and the skin is thick and the flesh is hard, so the weather is very cold and cannot be defeated..."
His memorization is true, his annotations are correct, his annotations are incorrect, his detailed rules are meticulous, and his medical principles are incisive, which makes him unable to find any problem with Xue Changsheng.
If he failed to pass the junior exam, where would Xue Changsheng's old face be put? He now also understood that the young man in front of him was extremely intelligent and could not forget his every moment. The question of reading the text according to his script was meaningless, so he could only ask some profound questions.
So Xue Changsheng raised his eyebrows and asked in a stern manner: "Senior, since you claim to have read the "Four Spirits Medical Documents", then I ask you, what is the essence of this book?"
Such macro questions are the most sophisticated. The "Four Spirits Medical Classic" is called the general medical outline and naturally covers everything. Not to mention the young man who reads this book when he turns around, even the disciples of Baicaoweng can hardly answer it properly.
However, Yan Li's answer...
"Ha, can this be called a problem?" Yan Li chuckled, "Since the Four Spirits Medical Classic is called the Four Spirits, it naturally takes the two qualities and four symbols as the main principles to coordinate the changes in the human body, various diseases, and acupuncture and stone pharmacology. As long as the changes in the Four Symbols are understood, this book is well-versed, and the rest is just a little bit.
"The four symbols are the sun, Taiyin, Shaoyang, Shaoyin, and the stars are used as the stars, which is called the blue dragon, white tiger, vermilion bird, black womb. Among them, the blue dragon supports the righteous energy, the white tiger is the main attack, the vermilion bird is called the birth and hair, and the Xuanwu is called the moistening Xia. The medical principles are ever-changing, and they are inseparable from these four symbols, so they are called the "Four Spirits Medical Documents".
"Uh..." Xue Changsheng pondered silently. He knew in his heart that Yan Li's words were so meticulous that they could not be more meticulous, and could all be used as a preface to the "Four Spirits Medical Classic". But this old man was arrogant for a lifetime, how could he admit defeat in front of the younger generation?
Xue Changsheng was still waiting to ask again, but Yan Li had no intention of answering.
In fact, Yan Li still hasn't said half of the comments about the "Four Spirits Medical Chronicle". The "Four Spirits Medical Chronicle" uses the four symbols as the outline. In terms of the movement and changes of the human body, the mutual influence of the five internal organs, the eight meridians and twelve meridians is far less appropriate than the Five Elements Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the Earth. Therefore, this medical classic from another world is quite flawed.
If these defects are expressed, they will inevitably argue with Baicaoweng, who is desperate for face. It is not Yan Li's purpose of surpassing Xue Changsheng in medical skills.
His goal is to heal Duan Heihu.
So, Yan Li said: "Mr. Xue, medical skills are ultimately a knowledge of curing diseases and saving people. Oral arguments are meaningless, so why not prove them with cases?"
Xue Changsheng's face turned red. He also knew that he kept asking a junior that he had lost his identity, but unfortunately he was unable to get on the verge of a tiger. He said with his seniority: "You are so unreasonable, but you will be impatient if you say a few words to the school? What other case evidence do you need? Do you have any strange prescriptions that can cure the black man's poisonous palm?"
"There is no strange side, but there is one solution." After Yan Li finished speaking, not only Baicao Weng widened his old eyes, but everyone present focused their eyes, especially the desperate Fenghuo forged the crowd.
"Hmph—" Xue Changsheng obviously disbelief and snorted coldly, "Let me say it, I listen carefully."
This old man was not so angry that he didn't dare to say that if you had a solution, I would just talk like that.
"The Four Spirits Medical Chronicles are just a medical outline. There are few records of the toxicity and prescriptions of various poisons. After reading them for the first time, they naturally cannot solve these problems in one fell swoop." Yan Li said calmly, "However, based on this, it is not difficult to let Duan Dajia delay his life for three or five days."
"The antidote configuration of the Five Spider Soul-Tangling Palm takes twenty days. Even if you can successfully delay your life for three or five days, what's the use? Just suffer a few more days of torture!" Xue Changsheng's eldest disciple, the middle-aged doctor, couldn't help but interrupt.
Baicaoweng snorted, expressing his default on this question.
Yan Li said: "Not to mention three or five days, one day is enough. After one day, Yan will definitely read all the medical skills of Bian Que Pavilion. Even if he cannot relieve the poison at once, there will always be a way to delay his life for another twenty days."
These words made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and Duan Heihu's life finally had a little hope.
Xue Changsheng frowned and said, "I began to wonder, how can you use this doll to delay your life for three days."
"It's not difficult to say, but I think Mr. Xue didn't notice it for a while."
"oh?"
"No matter what kind of poison palm, you must first absorb the toxins and harm yourself before hurting the enemy. It is impossible to use a large amount of antidotes during the practice process, otherwise it will inevitably affect the accumulation of toxins, and half the effort will be achieved with twice the effort." Yan Li explained, "The more complex and strong the poison palm, the more difficult it is to practice. To ensure that the practitioner is safe, the toxins he consumes must always be maintained at the limit of balance between birth and restraint. Otherwise, the practitioner himself is accidentally poisoned..."
Speaking of this, Xue Changsheng waved his hand calmly: "This is a simple truth, just talk about the key points."
"This principle is the point." Yan Li smiled and said, "The Five Spider Soul-Encapsulated Palm is also a poisonous palm mixed with complex toxins, and it is impossible to be exceptional. The toxins of the five spiders must form a balance and restraint with the practitioner's own body before they can be at peace. After the poisonous palm is released, as the palm power of the trigger gradually dissipates, the toxicity will become more and more intense in the body of the attacker. Otherwise, if these toxins enter the body, they should be sealed with blood. How can they save their lives for a day?
"Just just now, Mr. Xue said that these five spiders' soul-wrapped palms are five types of ghost-faced spiders, Helan spiders, silver-line spiders, cold-line spiders, and lacquer fire spiders. According to the general records of the "Four Spirits Medical Books·Three Insects Poison Records", among which the ghost-faced spiders, Helan spiders, Hanling spiders, and lacquer fire spiders are incompatible. The silver-line spiders must be poisons that are in the middle and harmonize with the person who causes the recruitment. In other words, the violent toxins in front of us are actually the silver spiders guiding the other four spider poisons. As long as the silver-line spiders are relieved or suppressed, although they cannot eradicate the poison, they are enough to delay their life for three or five days!"
After this explanation, the Baicao Weng Xue Changsheng's temple was darker and still had no color. His disciples all looked surprised, as if they were shaking the clouds and seeing the sun.
As for Xue Changsheng, he certainly knew that the method was feasible with his medical skills. However, he determined that the injured would be dead and found a glimmer of life in this way, so how could he have faced him?
However, if he denies this set of treatment plans that a discerning person knows when he hears it, at most, he will let Fenghuozhan and his party seek medical treatment elsewhere, and he can still use this method to delay the outbreak of the poison. Then he will be even more embarrassed.
"Oh, why did you feel unlucky to meet such a boy?" Xue Changsheng sighed secretly, "Isn't he really from a hidden sect or a medical family who comes to spend time with me?"
Xue Changsheng, who was desperate for face, pondered for a moment and finally chose the path that was lighter to embarrassment - admitting that the Yangtze River pushes the previous wave is better than kicking the patient who is determined to be dead and being saved by other colleagues.
