Start with a photographic memory and build a memory palace

Chapter 162 Wu, Wu.

……

Dingxiang City.

Li Chunfeng came to the palace gate and looked at the guards who were blocking his way. He shouted in a deep voice:

"Go, tell Wu Wen, the Marquis of Dingxiang, that his master has arrived. Tell him to come see me as soon as possible!"

After hearing his self-introduction, the guard did not dare to delay and went to report immediately.

now.

Wu Wen was practicing in the room with his eyes closed and concentrating.

Suddenly, a guard came to report that his master had arrived.

Upon hearing this, Wu Wen slowly opened his eyes.

He secretly wondered, Master? He had two masters, one was Master Zhu Jiu and the other was Li Chunfeng.

Mr. Zhu Jiu is enjoying his life in Zhujia Village and he will definitely not come here, so the person who came should be Li Chunfeng.

He quickly got up, straightened his clothes, and went to greet him.

Arriving at the palace gate, Wu Wen saw Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang following behind him, and immediately stepped forward to salute: "Master, Uncle Master!"

Li Chunfeng suddenly reached out to grab him, and Wu Wen instinctively leaned back to avoid him.

"How dare you hide!"

Li Chunfeng shouted angrily, then reached out to grab him.

This time, Wu Wen did not dodge and was grabbed by Li Chunfeng on the shoulder.

Li Chunfeng pushed him in front of Yuan Tiangang and said, "Hurry up and apologize to your uncle!"

Wu Wen naturally knew what Li Chunfeng was talking about, so he bowed and saluted with a sincere attitude.

Yuan Tiangang nodded slightly, as if he didn't care about him.

The three of them entered the palace together.

Li Chunfeng immediately said to Wu Wen, "Go, get the spirit pill and return it to your uncle Yuan."

Hearing this, Wu Wen frowned slightly, seeming a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Li Chunfeng immediately scolded: "Why, didn't you hear what the master said?"

"Could it be that you also want to compete with me?"

"Don't dare!"

Hearing this, Wu Wen immediately bowed respectfully and went to get the spirit pill.

He handed the exquisite box containing the spiritual pill to Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang took the box, opened it gently, and found the Lingwan in the center, so he smiled and nodded.

Seeing this scene, Li Chunfeng also smiled with satisfaction.

It seems that his disciple is not so arrogant as to refuse to acknowledge him as his master.

This also proves that he still has the potential to be educated, and there is no need to clean up the house and expel him from the sect.

Li Chunfeng sat down in front of the chair, looked at Wu Wen seriously, and taught:

"Yuan Tiangang is your uncle. He asked you for the spiritual pill, how could you not give it to him? You even dared to attack him. You have read so many books, have you forgotten the teachings of the saints?"

Hearing this, Wu Wen didn't dare to say a word. He lowered his head and silently accepted the criticism from his master.

Then, Li Chunfeng said earnestly:

"Do you know what the difference between humans and beasts is? It's that humans understand propriety and righteousness! Saints are called saints because they promote the way of education, 'A gentleman should do what he should do and should not do what he should not do', so that people can understand what they should do and what they should not do."

"If people indulge themselves and act arbitrarily, then rituals and music will collapse."

Li Chunfeng sighed.

"This is also the responsibility of a teacher. I didn't teach you well. I only answered your questions and taught you knowledge about cultivation, but I neglected to teach you how to be a good person."

As he said this, he bowed to Yuan Tiangang and apologized.

Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang immediately stepped forward to stop it.

Li Chunfeng looked at Wu Wen again and said, "From today on, I will stay here and teach you carefully, fulfilling my duties as a master."

Instead of being unhappy about this, Wu Wen was very happy about it.

Because he had many unresolved problems, he could just ask his master Li Chunfeng for advice.

"Master, I will arrange accommodation for you!"

Wu Wen arranged Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang to live next to his own residence.

Li Chunfeng looked at his extremely luxurious living conditions and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

It’s not that practitioners cannot enjoy life, but people like Wu Wen are going too far.

Living environment is crucial to a person's growth, and a simple life can more easily hone a person's strong will.

Wu Wen's luxurious life makes it easy for him to neglect material things, so it is no wonder that his state of mind would be in trouble.

"Let him stay here for now, and I will guide him slowly in the future." Li Chunfeng said to himself.

It was night before I knew it.

Wu Wen has not rested yet, but continues to practice in the practice room.

Li Chunfeng didn't rest either. He wanted to talk to Wu Wen, but found that he was not in the room.

After asking the guards, I found out that Wu Wen was practicing in the practice room.

So Li Chunfeng came to the practice room to find him.

Wu Wenzheng was sitting cross-legged in the center practicing
Li Chunfeng did not disturb him for the time being, but looked around the training room.

Like Wu Wen's residence, this place was almost built with gold and silver. Wu Wen withdrew from the interior and came to Li Chunfeng: "Master!"

"How far have you come in your practice now? Tell me in detail," Li Chunfeng asked.

Wu Wen explained to him bit by bit what he had discovered and gained during his practice.

When Li Chunfeng heard that Wu Wen used the three channels and seven chakras of Buddhism to cultivate the unity of body and mind, he frowned and rebuked him:
"Why, my Taoist teachings are not enough for you to learn, so you actually go and learn Buddhist teachings on your own?

How much do you know about Buddhist practice? Is there anyone who can guide you?
No wonder there are problems with your practice!

Buddhism says that the body is a sea of desire, and if one tries to cross it without great wisdom, one will surely sink into it.

Li Chunfeng looked at Wu Wen carefully and said, "Fortunately, you have a good character, otherwise you would be in big trouble now."

Listening to Li Chunfeng's teachings, Wu Wen suddenly understood.

It seems that I am indeed affected by my physical body.

Ever since he started practicing 'unity of body and mind', his realm and strength have improved dramatically, but his attitude towards external enjoyment has quietly changed.

Just like the mansion he lived in when he first lived in Chang'an City, he didn't think about redecorating it at that time, but just cleaned it and moved in directly. Instead, he felt that this had a unique charm.

However, compared with today's life
He seemed quite simple then, but now his life is almost full of enjoyment.

Although he once thought that this was to prevent the trivialities of life from interfering with his practice, it is undeniable that it also included a certain yearning for a hedonistic life.

This kind of physical satisfaction is the subtle influence of the body on his consciousness.

Fortunately, Wu Wen possessed a spiritual space and mastered the art of summoning spirits, which enabled him to suppress his inner desires with reason.

Otherwise, he would most likely become addicted to this pleasure and unable to extricate himself.

After bowing respectfully to Li Chunfeng, Wu Wen said sincerely: "Master, please teach me!"

Li Chunfeng was quite pleased to see Wu Wen's sincere attitude. He nodded and said slowly:

"Since you have already known your mistakes, I, as your teacher, will do my best to teach you. On the path of cultivation, the state of mind is particularly important. You must always remember that to cultivate yourself you must first cultivate your mind. If your mind is not right, no matter how high your cultivation is, it will be in vain."

“Also, don’t practice those messy things anymore. You can learn about them, but don’t get addicted to them.

I will teach you the orthodox Taoist practice method."

Hearing this, Wu Wen suddenly thought of a question, so he asked Li Chunfeng:
"Master, Uncle Yuan once told me that physical martial arts is a dead end. Why is that?"

Li Chunfeng replied: "This is exactly what I want to correct you.

It’s not that martial arts cannot lead to longevity, but the methods of practicing martial arts have almost been lost.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Wen immediately asked, "Why?"

Li Chunfeng explained:

“The origin of martial arts is that our ancestors in ancient times created it by imitating all things in the world in order to resist ferocious beasts.

Through practicing martial arts, our ancestors indeed mastered various powerful powers, including the ability to fly, control thunder, and have insight into the heavens and the earth.

Therefore, warriors at that time were also called witches. "

Li Chunfeng paused for a moment, sighed, and then continued, "But practicing martial arts has a huge disadvantage, and you have experienced it now."

Hearing this, Wu Wen naturally understood what the disadvantages Li Chunfeng was talking about were, which was that a strong physical body would have a great impact on human consciousness.

Li Chunfeng continued, "They cultivate martial arts but not their minds, so ancient witches were almost all barbarians.

They are bloodthirsty and war-loving, and the stronger they become, the more they lose their humanity.

Therefore, wars continued until the sages appeared. "

“The ancient sages educated all living beings, regulated human nature with propriety and morality, and taught the way to seek immortality and protect themselves.

However, since martial arts were popular at that time, the ancient sages fought many wars with witches.

In the end, the sages won.

In order to prevent witches from rising again, the ancient sages used various means to erase the martial arts tradition, thus making it almost extinct. "

After listening to Li Chunfeng's explanation, Wu Wen finally understood why martial arts were lost, because there was almost no inheritance left.

If one wants to practice, one must either find the inheritance left in the world, or create a path of one's own.

Just like the electromagnetic field that Wu Wen is practicing now, he is gradually developing a new heritage through trial and error.

I have said so much to Wu Wen.

A lot of time has passed.

Li Chunfeng turned and left, and Wu Wen followed him and went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, Wu Wen recalled what Li Chunfeng had just said to him.

He always felt that there was something else going on.

Li Chunfeng is standing on the Taoist standpoint and expounding on the issue of the decline of martial arts as a Taoist seeking immortality, which is inevitably biased.

Wu Wen himself is a martial arts practitioner.

Therefore, in his opinion, the interruption of the inheritance of martial arts is definitely not that simple.

Wu was created by ancient people in order to resist ferocious beasts by imitating all things in heaven and earth.

Just from this origin, we can determine the orthodoxy of martial arts.

It is true that practicing martial arts may affect one’s character and make one advocate violence, which is undeniable.

But it is impossible to say that there is no solution.

Because how strong must a person's will be to fight for survival all day? How could he not be able to resist such a small side effect?
Therefore, according to Wu Wen's analysis, he believed that the reason for the discontinuation of martial arts was definitely not that simple.

There must be deeper reasons and mysteries hidden in this.
