Chapter 20: The Ear Aperture of the Seven Aperture Seal
"What should we do?" I asked.
"Actually, it's the same as when you learn the eye skills, which is to control the aura through your thoughts, and control the aura on your vocal parts. When you play the piano, it's your fingertips, and when you play the flute, it's your mouth." The master replied.
When I heard it, this was basically consistent with what I had learned before. It said:
"Then I understand, Master." After saying that, I ran towards the piano.
As soon as I sat down, I realized that I couldn't play any music at all. I had only been thinking about Taoism and had not thought about music at all.
"Master, I, I can't play." I said awkwardly.
"Then why are you running so fast!" The master was a little angry.
"Don't I want to learn it early?"
"Have you forgotten the training I gave you before? You are starting to be impetuous again! Make a decision and then act, do you understand?"
"I was wrong, Master, I will practice hard." I was very ashamed.
"That's all. I'll teach you a piece of music called "Qing Jiao"."
""Clear Corner"? I've never heard of it, Master."
"Of course you haven't heard of it. This piece of music was heard by the Yellow Emperor when he escaped into the fairyland while meditating. In the first part, the music is majestic, as if there are millions of soldiers, which can make the grass and trees die and the rivers die.
The flow stopped, and the mountains and rivers collapsed; in the middle section, the music turned melodious and became soothing, which revived all things and made them full of vitality. The rivers flowed on the ground, and the sun and the moon were beautiful. After Huang Di woke up, he hurriedly wrote down what he had just heard in his dream.
Fairy song, this is "Qing Jiao"."
"That's awesome. Does that mean that the lives of people who hear the first paragraph will be in danger?" I asked.
"Ordinary people naturally cannot bear the immortal music, but although the music is immortal, it depends on the luthier. The Taoism and spiritual energy of the luthier have a great influence on the music. With your Taoism, it is not enough to cause any harm."
"Oh." I heard the sarcasm in Master's words, and I was a little unhappy.
Returning to the guqin, the master first gave me a demonstration and then guided me step by step. After a while, I learned this piece of music.
"That's right, now try to control your spiritual energy on your fingertips and integrate it into your music. In this way, your music will be more penetrating and offensive." Master said.
I tried hard to control the spiritual energy on my fingertips. I thought that I could easily learn it with the foundation of eye aperture, but after trying it a few times, I found that there was a clear difference between the two.
When practicing the Eye Aperture, because the Eye Aperture can leak out the spiritual energy, it does not require strong control to gather the spiritual energy at one point, but it is a very dynamic process.
But the essence of controlling the spiritual energy at the fingertips is to concentrate the spiritual energy at one point, and then release it in the sound of the piano with purpose and direction. This is a very small operation, no less than embroidering the Great Wall on grains of rice.
After practicing several times, I couldn't control it well. I raised my head and said to the master:
"I can't control it on my fingertips, Master."
"This shows that you are not focused enough. The practice of ear acupoints is the most test of concentration. The so-called ears and eyes are smart. What the ear acupoints need is sensitivity, that is, they can catch small changes. Therefore, you need to settle down first, empty yourself, and don't have any distracting thoughts.
Only then can we gradually find a way.”
After listening to what Master said, I took a deep breath, let go of myself, and concentrated on controlling the spiritual energy. After a few times, I became much stronger than before.
I quickly struck while the iron was hot and tried a few more times. After repeated attempts, my fingertips actually had some burning marks.
"Well, you practiced well. Now let's give it a try and play a complete piece of music." Master

Speaking of.
I closed my eyes, and my ears keenly captured the changes around me. When everything was silent, I started to play this piece of music. At the beginning, I did not add my aura. This piece of music was like a walking zombie, with no appearance.
, but without any inner meaning.
After playing it again, I added my spiritual energy. While playing it selflessly, I used my ears to keenly capture the changes around me. I found that in the sound of my piano, the mountain was trembling slightly, the river began to ripple, and something appeared in the sky.
There were some dark clouds, and even the Phoenix on the high platform seemed a little frightened.
"Master, when I play this piece of music, it's like commanding millions of soldiers, and sometimes it's even like there are heavenly soldiers and generals cheering me on." I said to Master while closing my eyes and playing selflessly.
"If you focus more, you will see more powerful things."
After listening to Master's words, I began to let go of myself, almost reaching the state of selflessness. At this time, I saw a colorful rainbow hanging high in the sky, and there was an immortal passing by behind the clouds.
"Master, there are immortals behind the clouds!" I shouted.
"Stop!" Master suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong, Master?" I opened my eyes and asked in confusion.
"You played well. After seeing the immortal, you can move on to the next stage. Now you have to integrate your emotions into the aura, and then inject the two together into your music."
"What's the use of this, Master?" I was very confused.
"You'll know after you try it."
Because I have the foundation of controlling spiritual energy, I practiced very quickly this time, and after a few times I was able to fully inject my emotions into the music.
After I fully learned the ear skills, I was very excited and began to play the piano selflessly. Originally, I was thinking of the happy time when my grandfather was with me when I was a child, but then I thought of my grandfather’s teachings to me before he died. Suddenly,
Sadness comes from it.
I thought about my grandfather saving the entire Wu family with his own efforts as a mortal. I thought about the bitterness of Ren Degong when he discovered that the descendants of the Wu family were in trouble eight hundred years ago.
, willing to abolish Taoism and Dharma.
I also thought about my father and my fifth grandfather, who had no complaints and wholeheartedly accompanied me on the dangerous journey to find my opponent and save the Wu family. I thought about Mengzhu choosing to fall into the abyss with me in order to save me, and Ling'er and Leng.
Yue, life and death are also uncertain at this moment.
All my relatives and friends along the way always protected me. Because I shouldered the responsibility of saving the Wu family, I was protected by everyone. For this, they were willing to pay the price with their lives.
Thinking of these, my emotions were a little out of control, tears kept flowing down my cheeks, and I felt the wind whistling in my ears, but at this time I was completely immersed in my emotions and couldn't extricate myself. My hands
Feeling my heart, I strummed the strings quickly, as if I was planning to tell all the words of the past twenty years at this moment. In this vast world, my emotions poured into the sound of my piano, like
It exploded like spring thunder.
"Stop it! Ming'er!" Master suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs.
I hurriedly opened my eyes, but the sight in front of me shocked me.
I saw the rivers in the distance drying up, the mountains collapsing, and the sky covered with dark clouds. There was no trace of the sun. Everything was lifeless and lifeless. The phoenix on the high platform had also flown away long ago. I saw that Mengzhu seemed to have fainted.
Earth, and Master is protecting her.
My heart trembled. Fengling was Master's favorite place. Back then, Emperor Yan wanted to seal Master into "Innate Dream Divination". Master made it clear that he would not enter unless Fengling could be moved into the book.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
This incident is enough to show how much Master attaches great importance to Fengling, but I actually destroyed this place. Thinking of this, I said with trembling:
"What's going on, Master?"
The master did not answer, but crossed his legs next to Mengzhu and seemed to be doing something, which made me even more uneasy.
After a while, Master returned to the high platform and said:
"I didn't expect you to have such a big emotional change at such a young age. It really surprised me. What you have to do now is to continue playing the piano. You just played the first section. It shouldn't have such great power, but
It seems that you have vented all your emotions in the past twenty years in the sound of the piano just now, which caused such great damage. If you continue to play and use your firm heart as the main body of your emotions, you can restore this place."
I took a deep breath and started playing. This time I thought about the fact that although my grandfather failed to completely defeat the Wu family's opponents, he did not let them succeed. Rende Gong changed his fate against the will of heaven and gave me this unparalleled gift.
Although my great-grandfather failed to defeat his opponent due to his talent, he still left hope for us descendants of the Wu family.
At this time, I also have two meridians in hand and a night eye close to my body. Although I am far from reaching the level of gods or heaven, I am still full of confidence.
And these are the sources of firmness in my heart. At this moment, they have become my most righteous emotions. They are integrated into my music and stir up in the world, restoring the mountains and rivers, changing the color of the sun and the moon, and full of vitality everywhere. Those two
The phoenix also flew to my side and made a "clang" sound in response to me.
I opened my eyes and saw that everything was restored. I was very excited, but I found that Mengzhu was still lying on the ground at this moment, so I asked Master:
"Master, why didn't Mengzhu wake up?"
"I just sealed her ears. The first part you played was enough to shock her, so I had to do this. Now you can help her untie it. She is currently in a state of false coma and needs you.
s help."
"Thank you, Master. Disciple, I will go now."
I ran to Mengzhu's side and controlled the spiritual energy that entered Mengzhu's ear openings. After a while, it was all released.
"Tomorrow? What's wrong with me?"
"You enter a state of false stupor, like falling asleep."
Then, I explained the cause and effect, and Mengzhu said happily:
"So you have learned the ear skills? Can you seal Dong Jue's hearing?"
"Yes, I have learned it from Master, but blocking other people's hearing is only the first level. At this stage, sound is also a tool of defense. The main reason is that each sound has its own aura, and I can pass it through
The method of capturing aura captures sound, thereby forming a vacuum-like environment around your ear, so that you can't hear anything." I explained.
"Wait a minute, Master? Ling Lun has accepted you as his apprentice?" Mengzhu asked me with wide eyes.
"Yes, speaking of which, Dong Jue is actually my senior brother, alas." I said helplessly.
"Okay, then you can be considered a decent person now, what about the second level?" Mengzhu asked.
"The second level is to use sound as a weapon. Injecting spiritual energy into the sound-producing part can give the sound great power. However, the disadvantage is that there is no selectivity. I cannot choose the person I want to attack or protect."
"I understand, but how did I faint?"
"It is the third level, which is to add the emotions of the musician, so that the music will become more powerful. At the same time, the musician can control the effect of the music. For example, it can be used to comfort friends and relatives, or it can be used to attack opponents.
