Chapter 647

These experiences also shaped Zhang Qingshu's sensitive character.

After being chosen by Li Ming, he was extremely terrified and even had deep doubts, which led to such behavior.

Li Ming didn't know Zhang Qingshu's background, but the fact that he took the scripture made Zhang Qingshu feel at ease.

Li Ming waited until Zhang Qingshu left before opening the scripture in his hand.

As a former martial monk, Li Ming was naturally very familiar with the contents of these scriptures. After just a quick glance, he immediately discovered some hidden mantras in the scriptures.

His strength only hinders my skin and fur, but my intention has penetrated his bones. Supported by both hands, a single breath flows through. If the left is heavy, the left is empty, and the right is gone; if the right is heavy, the right is empty, and the left is gone...

But these sentences are hidden in the scriptures, and some are on the backs of the pages. Sometimes they are repeated, and some are in reverse order.

The previous sentence is still about Qi being like a wheel, and it must move throughout the body. If it does not move, the body will be scattered, and the disease will be caused in the waist and legs... There is another long gap before it comes to this.

First, let the mind guide the body. Follow others, not yourself. Following the body can follow the mind, and following oneself still follows others. Following oneself leads to stagnation, while following others brings vitality. If you can follow others, you will have mastery in your hands, measuring the strength of the opponent to the millimeter; weighing the length of the opponent's attack to the exact second. Forward and backward, every detail is perfectly coordinated, and the longer you work, the more refined your skills become...

The martial arts principles therein are different from most martial arts in the world. Of course, this is not surprising to Li Ming. As a person who has traveled, sown, and harvested in several worlds and gathered a lot of martial arts wisdom, this kind of martial arts thought is not completely unfamiliar to him.

Ordinary people practice martial arts naturally in order to defeat the enemy. When facing the enemy, they must control the enemy and not be controlled by him.

But if you obey the enemy and follow others, there will be a different world. Hidden in it is the idea that "following yourself will lead to stagnation, while following others will bring life." In fact, it is just a way of expressing the principles of Tai Chi.

After Li Ming read through the entire scripture, he couldn't help but agree with the predecessor who left this scripture behind.

Or maybe Li Ming had underestimated this martial arts technique before. It is not just a simple book of internal energy. Although it cannot be said to be all-encompassing, it is also a self-contained system that clearly expresses the creator's own martial arts ideas.

The internal power is indeed profound, but what is most helpful to Li Ming is the thoughts of the predecessors. If this scripture is thrown into the outside world, many people will fight for a few sentences of internal power. However, the most precious thing is actually the ideas and concepts contained therein. The internal power is just an insignificant fruit on this big tree.

Afterwards, Li Ming read the scripture again and copied down the important mantras.

Finally, he recited softly under the light.

"...Strength is borrowed from others, and Qi is emitted from the spine. How can Qi be emitted from the spine? Qi sinks downward, drawn into the spine from the shoulders, and then into the waist. This is Qi flowing from top to bottom, and is called closing. From the waist, it spreads to the spine, spreads to the shoulders, and reaches the fingers. This is Qi flowing from bottom to top, and is called opening. Closing is taking in, and opening is releasing. If you understand opening and closing, you will understand Yin and Yang..."

"It's a pity that I can't meet the senior author of this book. If we could meet, we could drink tea and discuss philosophy, which would be a real pleasure."

As the sky gradually brightened, Li Ming stopped chanting. The aura around him was surging, but it was only limited to his room. No aura leaked out in the surroundings. Even Li Xian and Zhang Qingshu next door were unaware of it.

Li Ming sighed and said, "My original intention was just to lend him some of his luck and teach him some martial arts, but now that I've accepted your kindness, I can't be so careless anymore. Perhaps I should carefully select a martial art that suits him."

But then again, I don’t know what’s happening with my other two disciples.

……

at the same time.

Two young men stood before a turbulent river, one about fifteen or sixteen, the other looking even younger. They stood on a dirt slope, the base of which was overgrown with weeds. It was late autumn, the grass withered and yellow, and fallen leaves covered the ground. A gust of northwest wind blew the branches and leaves everywhere.

This is not a deep mountain or a swamp, but it has a desolate and almost desolate feeling.

A layer of clouds in the sky blocked the sunlight, but a small river about seven or eight feet away was rushing with a torrent, and the sound of water was deafening.

The younger one suddenly asked, "Why hasn't Brother Wen come yet? This place is so desolate. If Brother Wen hadn't asked us to come, I really wouldn't want to stay even a quarter of an hour longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, a green shadow suddenly floated over, and a voice that they were very familiar with also came with the wind.

"This place is twenty miles long and wide, with no houses, no fenced fields or pastures, so it's naturally a bit desolate."

The two men's expressions changed and they both shouted with joy.

"Brother Wen!"

Who else could these three people be if not Yang An, He Wei, and Wen Yuqing?

Ever since the Yue family incident in Nandu City, Li Ming knew that he was not afraid of the revenge of the demons, but it was different for his two disciples. He was fearless when he was alone, but he would be a little timid if he brought two little disciples with him. So he entrusted the two of them to Wen Yuqing, intending to meet up with them after he was done with his work.

However, Wen Yuqing felt that Li Ming had saved his life, and as Li Ming was a grandmaster of the innate realm, he had no way of repaying him. Now that Li Ming had entrusted his two disciples to him, he naturally had to train them wholeheartedly. In just one month, he had spent countless favors on them, and he had transformed the two of them.

At the same time, he had to admit that a grandmaster was a grandmaster, and his ability to judge people was indeed extraordinary. Both Yang An and He Wei were geniuses picked from thousands of people. This made him more determined to train the two well during this period of time, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of their talents?

After the three of them reunited, Yang An finally smiled and said, "Brother Wen, I don't mean that this place is overgrown with weeds and no one lives anywhere. I say it's desolate because there's a kind of miserable, desolate atmosphere here, as if every blade of grass and every tree here is extremely sad."

Wen Yuqing smiled again upon hearing this and said, "This place has a great history. It's home to the King of Herbs, one of the four greatest doctors in the world. He's closely linked to the way this place has become. Although his Herb Garden is mostly medicinal, it also houses many poisonous plants and toxic substances. That's why there's almost no grass growing here. Only the most tenacious plants can survive."

"Are we here to find the King of Herbs?" He Wei asked.

Wen Yuqing nodded and said, "Everyone says that the King of Hundred Herbs is aloof and extreme, but I know the reason. Ordinary people would naturally be subjected to all kinds of difficulties by him, but when I, Wen Yuqing, come here, things are completely different!"

Wen Yuqing had a smile on his face as he spoke, and he seemed to be very confident.

"But didn't you just say, Brother Wen, that this place is full of poisonous plants and there's no way to get through? Do we have to take the water route?" Yang An pointed to the stream in front of him.

Wen Yuqing shook his head and said, "This river is extremely dangerous, with countless undercurrents. If we were to take an ordinary boat, we'd probably be destroyed before we even made it halfway. There are also strange fish underwater. Not to mention someone like you who's not familiar with the water, even someone who is familiar with it would be bitten to death."

"Then what should we do?" He Wei asked again.

Wen Yuqing said, "I've already sent a letter. If nothing unexpected happens, the boat to pick us up will be here soon."

As he spoke, a small boat suddenly came down the river.
