One person: I am just a pawnshop owner

Zhang sat cross-legged on the bed, while Zhang Quanyi spoke softly beside him, saying:

"I'm teaching you the Quanzhen Longmen Dao, which emphasizes the dual cultivation of body and soul, and the refinement of inner elixir."

"Ancestors Zhong and Lu once passed down the inner alchemy path. I will break it down and teach it to you."

"What is the inner elixir? It is not a tangible object. The so-called inner elixir is a ball of pure energy, which is the integration of essence, energy and spirit."

"Human beings have an innate Qi, which later differentiates into essence, energy, and spirit. This is the transformation of the innate into the acquired. If one wishes to cultivate and become an immortal, one must fuse these three acquired elements back into the innate Qi."

"The breathing method I taught you earlier was the foundation-building method. Now that you have established your foundation, I will teach you the second step of cultivation: refining essence into qi."

"Carefully examine every part of your body, feeling the relaxation of your bones and flesh. Focus your mind on your tailbone, allowing your Qi to slowly ascend along your spine. Keep your mind focused, and the changes within your body..."

The night passed slowly as Zhang Quanyi taught.

The next day, when Zhang Fang opened his eyes, he felt refreshed. Although he had practiced all night, he felt as if he had had a very good sleep.

Zhang Quanyi, who was standing aside, had a smile on his face, and Zhang Fang was quick to tell Zhang Quanyi about his experience.

Zhang Quanyi nodded slowly and said with a smile:

"You are just beginning your cultivation. In the future, the sweetness you experience today will turn into bitterness."

At this time, Zhang Fang was a little confused by what his brother said.

But as he practiced for a longer time, he gradually understood.

The refreshing feeling brought by the first day of practice is indeed wonderful, but the path of improvement becomes increasingly difficult over time. In the meantime, the wonderful experience at the beginning of the day gradually turns into torture and suffering.

In the final analysis, practicing Buddhism means going against the will of heaven.

How can it be easy?

One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. This is the law of nature.

Going back from three to one again goes against the laws of nature. How can it be simple?

Fortunately, Zhang Quanyi was also paying attention to Zhang Fang's mind at all times.

He assisted with the practice of Jing Gong to stabilize Zhang Fang's mind.

Over time, Zhang Fang finally made some progress in his practice.

Although he is still far behind his brother, he is very content.

Before he embarked on the path of cultivation, he had no idea how extraordinary his brother's talent was.

Now he understands.

My brother was born for cultivation.

Compared with his brother's talent, the talents of ordinary monks are like an ant seeing the sky.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

After the mourning period ended, Zhang Quanyi decided to leave Yizhou.

His younger brother Zhang Fang accompanied him.

The two brothers left their hometown from then on.

When the news reached Yizhou City, many people sighed with emotion.

The disturbance Zhang Quanyi caused at the Zhao family three years ago has always been the talk of the town among men, women, young and old in Yizhou City. Many people are grateful to Zhang Quanyi for his action at that time. Otherwise, the Zhao family would not have been quiet, and the government would not have been so prosperous.

Some people wanted to see the two Zhang brothers off, but they could never find any trace of them.

As for the Zhang family's ancestral home, it was also cleaned thoroughly.

It's as if no one has ever lived here.

After the people in Yizhou City learned about this, they sighed for a while.

They were worried that Yu Zhang Quanyi's departure would bring the Zhao family and the government back to their old ways.

But what they didn't expect was.

Zhao Guang, the new head of the Zhao family, actually brought many relatives to the Zhang family's ancestral home to pay homage. From then on, he was determined to do good and never did evil.

The government has always maintained a fair and just policy and has never harmed the people.

Some people in Yizhou City said that the Zhao family and the government were afraid that Zhang Quanyi would come back for revenge after knowing their evil deeds.

Some people also said that this meant that the relationship between the Zhao family and the government had really improved.

but no matter.

Yizhou City was indeed one of the few places in Liaodong region that was popular among the people in the future.

Please give me flowers, votes, and rewards!!!

Chapter 13: Settle the cause and effect, and go to the mansion! (Please give me flowers, votes, and rewards!)

After Zhang Fang followed his brother out of Yizhou, they headed north towards Longjiang Province.

As the two walked and looked around, time gradually turned from autumn to midwinter.

The north wind was howling and heavy snow was coming.

But the two of them were always dressed lightly, without any thick clothes on.

According to Zhang Quanyi, this is also a kind of practice.

Quanzhen Longmen cultivates both the body and soul, and mostly practices asceticism.

Zhang Fang was also obedient. He walked in the cold wind and heavy snow, but the true energy in his body was always circulating, so he didn't feel cold.

On this day, the two brothers were almost reaching Heilongjiang Province.

The two were in a forest.

It was snowing heavily and the snow in the forest was half a person's height.

But the miraculous thing is that there is never a speck of snow on the bodies of the two brothers.

If ordinary people saw this scene, they would probably treat the two people as gods.

Zhang Fang looked into the distance through the forest and asked:

"Brother, you never told me why we came here all this time. Can you tell me now?"

Zhang Quan was silent for a moment, then replied:

"Three years ago, I fought against Quan Xing, a member of the Deng family, at the Zhao family. I came here today to settle this matter."

"I see."

After three years of teaching by Zhang Quanyi, Zhang Fang now has a comprehensive understanding of the world of extraordinary people.

The two brothers chatted and then continued on their way.

When the two were about to leave the forest, suddenly two people in fur cloaks stood in front of them.

Then the two men bowed to the two brothers, and one of them said:

"My grandmother already knows the purpose of your visit, and she specially sent my brother and me to meet you."

Zhang Fang stepped forward and asked:

"Who is your grandmother?"

The leader said:

"We are the Chuma family. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhang Fang said no more after hearing this.

Zhang Quanyi took a step forward, put his brother behind him, and said with a folded hand:

"Please lead the way, brothers."

"Okay, please follow me."

The two men turned and left, and the Zhang brothers followed.

A moment later, the four of them arrived in front of the main hall of a large house.

The two people from the Deng family said "Please open the door" and then disappeared.

Zhang Quanyi knew that there was definitely something behind this door, so he asked his brother to hide behind him, and then he put his hands on the door and slowly pushed it open.

As the door slowly opened, the scene inside came into the eyes of the two brothers.

In the very front is an altar, on which is enshrined a portrait of an old woman holding a cane. On both sides of the portrait are red candles, the flames flickering continuously.

In the middle of the candles is a pile of offerings.

In front of this altar, there is a throne.

There was also an old woman sitting on the armchair. She looked quite kind and benevolent. On both sides of the old woman sat many people of different ages.

Some of them have white hair and beards, some are in their prime, and some are very young.

These people all looked at the Zhang brothers at the door, but their gazes were different.

"You are a guest, please come in."

A young man sitting at the last seat in the room spoke to Zhang Quanyi and Zhang Fang.

Zhang Quanyi took a deep breath and then stepped into the room.

The moment he stepped over the threshold and stepped onto the floor inside the house, a pressure from all directions hit him.

Although Zhang Quanyi was prepared for ruthless treatment, the sudden impact still made him sway.

Although Zhang Fang, who was standing outside the house and had not yet stepped into it, did not know what had just happened, he knew that the other party had definitely used some trick on his brother.

Anger suddenly flared up in his eyes, but then Zhang Quanyi said:

"Xiao Fang, you wait here and don't move without permission."

"elder brother···"

"obedient."

Zhang Quan turned around and looked at Zhang Fang, who was speechless.

Then Zhang Quanyi turned around and looked at the people in the inner room.

He stepped his other foot into the room, and the invisible impact he felt was even more severe, but he still maintained a calm expression and bowed, saying:

"I am a Quanzhen disciple, Zhang Quanyi, and have come to pay my respects to the Chu Ma lineage. Please forgive me if I have offended you!"

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the inner room step by step.

With every step he took, the pressure on him grew heavier, and the looks of those in the room on him grew more shocked.

After seven steps, Zhang Quanyi arrived at the center of the room. His body stood still and his eyes were extremely clear.

This made everyone look at each other in bewilderment.

They originally wanted to use the power of the crowd to give Zhang Quanyi a warning, but they never expected that the other party could actually resist!

This grandma is simply outrageous!

In the family hall of the shaman, an outsider was able to withstand the power of the shaman?

If I tell this to others, I will be laughed at by everyone in the world!

"What a great Quanzhen disciple! He's worthy of being the one who could single-handedly challenge the Eight Generals of Liaodong! Come, have a seat and some tea!"

As soon as the old woman sitting on the armchair finished speaking, the pressure on Zhang Quanyi immediately dissipated.

Then a servant came and brought Zhang Quanyi a chair and some tea.

At this point, Zhang Quanyi had truly caught the eye of the current Grandmother.

"I know that Taoist Zhang came here to settle the karma of the past, but we need to discuss this matter behind closed doors. What do you think?"

The old woman spoke.

Zhang Quanyi responded:

"I have no reason to refuse, but I am still outside the door, so please take good care of me."
