13 "Turtle's Breath"

Late at night, a dim small oil lamp was placed on an old wooden table on the corner of the first floor of the library.

Su Chen reads at night under the lamp and often stays up until dawn in the early morning.

The library does not close at night, and the disciples in the gang can stay here until dawn. However, they do not supply oil lamps, so they must bring their own oil lamps.

Su Chen didn't have any spare money to buy oil.

There is a large wild tung forest in the mountain behind Yaowang Villa. You can pick up the fallen tung dried fruits, tinker with force in the pot, squeeze out the tung oil, then fill it with a small bamboo tube, knead it into a wick with wild cotton wool, and make a small oil lamp.

Although the lights are dim, they emit a faint tung oil fragrance, which is quite refreshing and refreshing.

Su Chen brought his own tung oil bamboo lamp and buried his head in his desk. Among the many Taoist books, he found several important discoveries.

"Ordinary people should not be inside Lingshan."

"If you want to find Lingshan, you must first seal the six consciousnesses. A wisp of divine thought will reach the purple palace."

These two sentences mean that it is impossible for ordinary people in the world to discover the mysterious spiritual mountain hidden in their bodies.

If you want to find Lingshan, you must find a unique way, close your six senses, and then gather a ray of divine thoughts and enter the depths of the sea of ​​consciousness in the Niwan Palace to find the location of Lingshan.

‘Finally found a way!’

Su Chen was surprised and excited.

Close your own six senses and condense a ray of divine thoughts and sneak into the Niwan Palace. This is the best way to find Lingshan.

The next question is, how can we close the six consciousnesses?

There are many miscellaneous books in the library, and perhaps there are books that close their six senses.

Su Chen spent several days searching through the pile of miscellaneous books.

He was surprised to find several Taoist methods specifically used to close the six consciousnesses, such as "Ask for Heart Sutra", "Feal Breathing Method", "Turt Breathing Method", etc.

These introductions all say that they all have the effect of closing the six consciousnesses and achieving the effect of entering into meditation and meditation.

What satisfied Su Chen the most was the book "Turtle Breathing Art".

"The Turtle Breath" is a Taoist classic, usually used to cultivate one's own character and has no restrictions on cultivation. It does not record any martial arts moves, which cannot enhance the combat effectiveness of warriors. It does not belong to the martial arts book, nor does it belong to the medicine book.

The book introduces that you can practice this method, which can gradually close your six senses in your sleep and enter a deep sleep.

This made Su Chen very satisfied because he could practice while sleeping without taking up his time.

The "Heart Questioning" and "Feal Breathing Method" all require a lot of time to practice.

He had to follow his master to learn martial arts and medicine throughout the day, and to the end of the evening, he would continue to search books and search for information in the library to find more clues about "Blue Stone Tears".

I have a lot of time every day, and I can't take more time to practice a time-consuming technique.

"Okay! Just practice the "Turtle Breath Art" and close the six consciousnesses, and maybe you can find the mysterious spiritual mountain!"

Su Chen decided to try it.

The books in the library could not be taken away, so he silently remembered the "Turt Breathing Skills" in his heart. The whole book has only two pages, with a total of about four or five hundred words, which is not difficult to remember.

Su Chen followed Li Kui's pharmacy to practice martial arts and medicine during the day, and in the evening, he went to the library to continue reading various medicine books, looking for any clues about the bluestone tears.

It was late at night that he returned to the stone house to sleep. Zhang Tieniu, Yang Caizhi and others had already slept for an hour or two, and they were sleeping soundly.

"Although the turtle has a nose, it breathes with its skin. When sleeping, the qi comes out of its skin, which is called turtle breathing!"

"The body is like a turtle's back, and the qi is like a wandering silk. The ears and eyes are hanging down, the eyes are observing the nose, the nose is observing the mouth, the mouth is observing the heart, and the tongue is pressed against the upper palate. All the meridians are relaxed, the mind is concentrated into concentration, the qi is sinking into the Dantian, and the mind is one."

"After a long time, the mind descends at will, gradually encloses the six consciousnesses, and the body escapes into nothingness."

"The breath is slow and long, and the heartbeats slowly."

"If you practice this technique to the highest level of success, you can breathe a breath a day and be beating a heart every hour."

"The rising sun rises, the earth revives, and consciousness awakens."

Su Chen bowed and lay on the kang, silently operating the method of turtle breathing, and gradually fell asleep.

I have practiced this for about a month.

Su Chen found that his breathing had indeed become slow and long, and his sleep became very sweet.

Even the sound of Zhang Tieniu's snoring and whistling sounds, Yang Caizhi's teeth grinding, Qin Huihui's foot-pulling sounds, and Kong Xinqiao's dream-breaking words all disappeared completely.

Even in the thunderstorm season, he could not hear the thunderstorm outside Yaowang Villa.

Every time Su Chen wakes up, he feels full of energy and his fatigue is gone. He only needs two or three hours of sleep every day to maintain his full energy throughout the day.

Not to mention anything else, it is quite good to just help restore energy.

However, besides this benefit, there are no other abnormalities.

"This turtle breathing technique is not just about making people feel better after sleeping, right? There is no sign of completely closing the six consciousnesses!"

This made Su Chen very distressed.

In fact, he didn't know that this "Turt Breath Art" is a very low-level Taoist classic for self-cultivation and character cultivation, but it only makes people breathe for a long time, and it is impossible to completely close the six consciousnesses.

You should know that the books on the first floor of the library are all very ordinary books, and they are sold in street bookstores, and they are not even called secret books. Many warriors and Taoists have practiced them, but there is nothing strange at all.

Su Chen thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know the reason.

He only thought that his cultivation time was too short, so he was far from reaching the highest level of great success mentioned in the book "Turt Breath Jue", which was breathing a day and a heartbeat every hour.

My own realm is too low to completely block the six consciousnesses, so naturally I cannot gather a ray of divine thoughts and sneak into the Niwan Palace.

"From the current progress, if you want to practice such an effect in "The Turtle Breath Art", you may not be able to achieve the realm of breathing every day without decades. I don't have so much time to spend on it."

"We have to find another way to close the six consciousnesses!"

Su Chen spent more than ten days in the library, studying various medicine books and even reading various folk remedies of alchemists.

Late that night, he saw a case recorded in the medicine book: "Zhang, a hunter from Wujun, was bitten by a golden ring poisonous snake, fell into a coma, and was almost exhausted. Fortunately, the pharmacist passed by and fed the antidote, and woke up in a moment, and was able to survive."

When Su Chen saw this, he suddenly had a bright mind and a flash of inspiration.

"The venom of the golden ring snake is in a coma, almost extinct?!"

"Yes! The venom of the golden ring snake can paralyze muscles and nerves."

"Just one drop of venom is enough to significantly reduce the blood flow rate and completely lose the body's sensory perception. In severe cases, it can even make people breathe, suffocate, and lose their lives!"

"However, if the dose is greatly reduced, only one tenth, or even a small amount... toxicity is greatly reduced and it is not fatal."

Su Chen was excited.

As an apprentice of a pharmacist, I have learned a lot of pharmacist theories with Li Kui in the past few months. Of course, I understand the most simple pharmacist principle, that is, talking about toxicity without the dosage, which is to act like a hooligan.

Many highly toxic substances, if the dosage is small to a certain extent, will not be fatal, and even have some strange effects, which are used by pharmacists to treat diseases.

Therefore, highly toxic substances such as venomous snake liquid, scorpion liquid, sulfur, etc. are often extracted by pharmacists to treat rheumatism, epilepsy, etc., and there are countless other poisons used to treat diseases.

Su Chen couldn't help but think about it.

If you assist with trace amounts of Golden Ring Snake Venom, it might be able to greatly strengthen the function of the "Turt Breath Skill" to completely close your six consciousnesses!

Of course, this method is very dangerous, and it will be fatal if you are not careful.

After careful consideration, Su Chen decided to take a risk and try it to see if this method works. As long as the amount of venom is controlled, even if it fails, there will be no fatal threat.

He has been an outer disciple for five months now and he has almost no time.

If he failed this time and was eliminated by his master as a traitor, he would lose a lot of the benefits of his apprenticeship and could no longer read these mountain-like medicine books and Taoist books in the library as he is now.

In that case, if you want to cure your bluestone tears, you may have a very slim hope.

This disease cannot be cured, and he is not even able to sleep well.

...

Yaowangbang mainly focuses on medicine, and herbal materials naturally include many snakes.

Pharmacists in the Medicine Villa will raise various poisonous snakes. Pharmacists often extract the venom of the Golden Ring Snake for experiments or refine various pills.

But if Su Chen wanted their venom, he would definitely have to pay to buy it, which was quite expensive.

Su Chen was penniless and could not afford it. He wanted venom, but the only way he wanted was to go to the wild to catch a golden-ringed venom to extract its venom.

He has been a disciple of the Medicine King Gang who has been studying for nearly five months and has also learned some poisonous snake medicinal materials. He is already familiar with the nature of various poisonous snakes and knows how to catch snakes and get liquid.

Su Chen was preparing to go to the deep mountains outside Gusu County to find a golden-ringed venomous snake to extract the venom.

By the way, I also try my luck in the mountains to see if I can pick wild ginseng in case of emergency. If I suddenly feel sad, I can use it.

Su Chen asked Pharmacist Li Kui for three days off.

He dared not say explicitly that he was going to go deep into the mountains.

The Medicine King Gang does not allow disciples who are in the apprenticeship to go to the mountains to collect herbs privately because the apprentices' martial arts are still too weak, and even the level of third-rate warriors is less than that.

The deep mountains and old forests are quite dangerous, with many beasts and poisonous snakes. Adult jackals and beasts are almost comparable to the strength of third-rate warriors. Once an apprentice disciple encounters hungry jackals, he will easily have trouble without much resistance.

Besides, it is difficult to climb the mountains and ridges, and it is easy to lose its direction. If you enter the mountains, you may not be able to get out.

Only when you reach the strength of a pharmacist or a third-rate warrior or above, and have high strength in all aspects, will you be allowed to go to the deep mountains and forests to collect herbs.

Su Chen had no choice but to go into the mountain without telling it from his master, saying that there was something urgent at home and he wanted to go back.

Pharmacist Li Kui frowned a little unhappy, but considering that Su Chen was from the water town of Zhouzhuang and was a little far from Gusu County, he was still allowed to leave for three days, so he just told him to come back as soon as possible and not delay his martial arts practice and pharmacy study.
