The Glorious Summoner



993 The inheritance (2)

The guest room of the monastery was in a courtyard. The guest room was not big, and there was only a bed and a table inside.

The boy and servant beside Xia Pingan were quick-witted and quickly moved the boxes that Xia Pingan had placed in the carriage into the room. The coachman also settled the carriage and moved to the room next to Xia Pingan’s.

Young master Zhou had only brought two people with him for the autumn hunt.

this Tonghui temple is quite quiet. The bedsheets and blankets are clean too. This bit of incense money is worth it. Young master, please sit in the room for a while. Dinner time has already passed. I’ll go to the kitchen of the temple and get some vegetarian food for the company to make dinner, ” the boy servant said to Xia Pingan as he put down the things.

“Alright, you can go. I’ll walk around the temple!”

The manservant looked at Xia ping ‘an worriedly. do you want Uncle Chen to follow young master? ”

no need. My body is much better than before. I’ll just walk around the temple and exercise. It’s no big deal. You can go and do your work! Xia Pingan smiled. Yes, although his body was very weak now, it was much better than before. Otherwise, he would not have gone out to participate in the fall quarter examination. His body had been even weaker before. He was lucky to have met a master surnamed Chen at the Zhishan Hall who had taught him the health-maintaining method passed down from the Shaolin Temple. Later, he had obtained the ” internal energy Manual ” in the Chengdu Taoist Academy. After combining the two, his body had been much better. However, his body was still weak, and he could not stop smoking.

The fact that Zhou Shuguan had obtained the ” muscle-bone strengthening Scripture ” was not recorded in any historical records. It was only recorded in the preface of the ” muscle-bone strengthening and marrow-cleansing internal cultivation manual “. The reason why Xia Pingan knew about this was also a coincidence. In his previous life, when he was studying in school, one of the teachers in school had contracted cancer. Later on, the teacher had bought a training CD and followed a lady named Cui Lin to practice this set of skills. It was said that Madam Cui Lin had also contracted cancer. Later on, he had practiced this set of cultivation technique. Every morning, that teacher would practice this set of cultivation technique on the school field. He would also practice with other teachers, so all the students in the school knew about it.

After the manservant left the room, Xia ping ‘an closed the door and left the guest house.

Xia ping ‘an first went to the temple’s Mahavira Hall and Guanyin Hall to pay his respects. After that, he wandered around the temple.

At this time, the rain had stopped and the sky was getting dark. Xia Pingan had unknowingly come to the garden behind the temple. Behind the garden was a mountain wall. Xia Pingan walked around in the garden and came to the back of the garden. He could vaguely see a place under the mountain wall emitting a faint white light, as if there was a lantern there. When he walked closer, he saw that behind the trees under the mountain wall, An old monk with white brows and a white beard was sitting in a cave that could shelter him from the rain. He was meditating with his eyes closed and his legs crossed. The light was coming from the old monk. (Note 1)

Xia ping ‘an was still a few dozen meters away, but the old monk seemed to know that someone was coming. The light on his body suddenly disappeared, and he opened his eyes and looked at Xia ping’ an.

Xia ping ‘an quickly stepped forward and bowed. junior Zhou Shuguan greets master!

The monk laughed. there’s no master here. There’s only an old monk and a scholar!

“Grandmaster is too humble. Just now, this junior saw that Grandmaster had a Dharma while meditating. Grandmaster must not be an ordinary person!”

“Everyone has a Buddhist nature, so no one is an ordinary person. Everyone is an ordinary person, but it is difficult to see the nature and do not know the truth of being a Buddha with one’s heart!” The old monk smiled and spread his legs. He stood up and walked over.

“How should I address you, master?”

“Meditation and enlightenment!” The old monk replied. He even touched his stomach and laughed. I’ve meditated for half a day, and I’m already hungry. I’m about to go and offer sacrifices to my five internal organs!

Silent enlightenment!

it’s him, ” Xia ping said with a peace of mind. This was the senior monk who had taught him the muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing Scripture when he was in the monastery.

After the old monk finished speaking, he left without stopping. Xia Pingan did not pester him either. He just watched the old monk leave and bowed to him again.

When Xia ping ‘an returned to the guest room, he found that Jingyi kongwu was also staying in the guest courtyard, just opposite his room. This old monk had come here to pay the bill.

young master, this monastery’s kitchen only has some dried bean, sweet potato, melon soup, wild rice, and rice. I made some for you. You can just make do with it! When Xia Pingan returned to her room, her manservant had already brought her dinner in a lunch box.

Xia Pingan looked at the lunchbox. There was only one pair of chopsticks and a bowl inside. He asked the servant to get another pair of chopsticks and a bowl.

The servant did not know what was going on, but he still went to get another set of chopsticks.

alright, you can put down your things and go eat something. You’ve worked hard today! As Xia Pingan spoke, he took the food box and walked towards the old monk’s room.

Walking to the door of the room, Xia Pingan knocked on the door, and the old monk opened it.

“There’s not much left in the kitchen. My servant just brought some food over. If you don’t mind, we can have a meal together!”

“It’s rare for young master to be considerate and still think of this old monk. Come in!” It wasn’t difficult for the old monk to talk to her, so he let Xia Pingan into the room.

After entering the room, Xia Pingan opened the lunchbox and took out the food. They then had a meal together. After the meal, Xia Pingan asked the old monk about Buddhist scriptures, from the Diamond Sutra to patriarch Dharma’s on bloodlines. They got along quite well.

However, Xia ping ‘an’s body was too weak. After talking for more than two hours, Xia ping’ an felt that she was out of energy. She kept yawning and her head began to feel heavy. Tears also began to fall. This body’s opium addiction had suddenly come up.

“I see that young master’s complexion is not good, and your body is quite weak. Is young master smoking tobacco?” The old monk looked at Xia Pingan and asked directly.

Xia ping ‘an nodded and said guiltily, ” I’ve had this bad habit for more than ten years. I can’t get rid of it even if I wanted to!

“That smoke is mesmerizing and is a bad person. It’s better to stay away from it!” The old monk said.

Xia Pingan nodded and said goodbye to the old monk. He put away the food box and returned to his residence.

As soon as he returned, the manservant had already prepared the tools for smoking opium for Xia ping ‘an in the room. He had lit the lamp and prepared a large pipe, which was filled with opium.

“Young master, the fushou cream is ready. Young master, please take some and rest early!”

It seemed to be young master Zhou’s habit to smoke a little fushou cream before going to bed late.

However, Xia Pingan shook his head today and said firmly, ” remove the things. This is a peaceful place for Buddhism. Don’t do these messy things!

The manservant looked at Xia ping ‘an in surprise. Seeing that Xia ping’ an’s attitude was firm, he quickly put the things away.

Xia Pingan endured the weakness and discomfort of his body. After washing up, he moved his body around in the room and used his will to suppress his smoking addiction before falling asleep.

The next day, Xia ping ‘an woke up early before the sun had even risen. He went to the old monk’s door and waited.

The manservant who was following Xia ping ‘an saw Xia ping’ an standing there and was a little worried about Xia ping ‘an’s health. He hurriedly brought a stool over. Xia ping’ an asked the manservant to move the stool away and told him that he would not be leaving today and would continue to stay in the monastery.

After standing there for less than half an hour, Xia ping ‘an’s feet began to flash and he began to sweat. His body was gradually unable to take it. The manservant standing next to Xia ping’ an looked at him with a worried expression, afraid that Xia ping ‘an would fall over. The manservant did not understand why Xia ping’ an would be so respectful to an old monk.

However, it didn’t take long for Jing Yikong to get up. He opened the door and walked out of the room. He glanced at Xia Pingan and smiled. young master, you’re up early.

“I’ve come to pay my respects to you, master!” Xia ping ‘an gave the old monk a disciple’s bow.

“Young master, did you smoke the tobacco last night?”

Xia Pingan shook his head. the master said that the item wasn’t good, so I was prepared to give it up. Although it was hard to endure last night, I still made it!

The old monk smiled, ” it’s rare for young master to have such determination and perseverance. If young master can stop smoking the smoke soil for a month, this old monk will teach young master a way to recuperate so that young master can quit smoking soil in the future and have a healthy body!

“Is Master’s words true?”

“Amitabha, monks don’t lie!”

“Alright, then I’ll make a bet with you. If I can’t do it, I’ll be too embarrassed to appear in front of you again!” Xia Pingan said.

“Ah, young master, we still have to go to the provincial capital to participate in the autumn hunt!” The servant boy beside him immediately reminded.

“I’ll just take it as coming out to relax this year. Anyway, my family doesn’t expect me to get a high scholar and go back to eat!” Xia Pingan said.

The servant scratched his head and didn’t say anything. It was indeed like that. Young master’s family was rich and had land. He didn’t lack a high scholar. Moreover, young master didn’t win the first two times.

“Young master still doesn’t know what I am going to teach young master, and you are willing to give up the autumn hunt for this?” The old monk asked.

Xia Pingan shook his head. It was already the 19th year of Guangxu, and the current situation was already in a mess. He sighed and said, ” the world is in chaos now. The foreigners are overbearing and the current situation is unstable. I’m just a high scholar, so what if I’m the top scholar? I may not be able to save the country and the people. I only understood after talking to the master last night that if you want to strengthen your country and its people, you must first strengthen yourself. If everyone in China is strong and vigorous, would the foreigners dare to bully me? It’s precisely because there are too many weak people like me in China that the foreigners dare to come to our door. I can’t save others, so I’ll start by saving myself!”

……

For the next three days, Xia Pingan consulted master Jingyi kongwu in the temple every day. Once his drug addiction kicked in, he would go back to his room and restrain himself.

His body was too weak, and he had been used to it for a long time. Once his drug addiction came, his tears and snot came. It was as if countless ants were crawling in his body, and he was in great pain. Xia Pingan directly instructed the manservant and coachman beside him to tie him up with a rope as soon as his drug addiction came. He stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth to kick the addiction.

Three days later, the old monk left the Tonghui temple. Xia Pingan followed him to the Zhaojue temple. He also greeted and consulted the old monk every day, treating himself as the old monk’s disciple. Once his drug addiction came, he had his subordinates tie him up to detoxify.

After a whole month, the old monk saw that Xia Pingan was working hard and was finally moved. That morning, he invited Xia Pingan to his meditation room. With a serious expression, he said to Xia Pingan, ” one month has passed. The skill I’m going to teach you today is the muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing Sutra passed down by Dharma from the Shaolin Temple of Mount Song. This Sutra is a secret technique left in the human world by Buddha Tathagata. It’s not a trivial technique and is the true essence of the patriarch. It’s not something that ordinary people can compare with. You must not practice it halfway. You think you’re invincible and invincible, so you gave up the best skills and fell in love with the achievements of the human world for a long time. After you learn it, if you have any insights, you can perform it well. Don’t regard it as a unique skill and keep it a secret!

I will follow your teachings. If I succeed, I will definitely pass this classic down to the future generations. I hope that the people of China will be strong and vigorous, and the people, country, and species will be strong!

The old monk nodded and began to teach Xia Pingan the secret technique of muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing.

Xia ping ‘an had been learning martial arts at Zhaojue temple for three months, and his body was getting stronger by the day. What was more amazing was that this secret technique of changing tendons and washing marrow had actually helped him get rid of his opium addiction.

After that, Xia ping ‘an bade farewell to master Jingyi kongwu and returned home. He practiced every day, and after persisting in practicing for a year, this secret technique removed his addiction. His spirit was refreshed, his body became stronger, and his strength gradually increased. It was as if he had become a completely different person, and everyone in his family was overjoyed.

With the support of his family, Xia Pingan opened a school and took in disciples. He taught the children in the village to read and write, as well as to practice muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing. He took in a disciple named Zhang Yao, who had been weak and sickly since she was young. She suffered from blood loss. Xia Pingan taught her with all his heart and helped Zhang Yao learn muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing. After Zhang Yao learned muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing, she recovered from her illness in a few months. (Note 2)

After that, Xia Pingan paid for the craftsman to carve the words and pictures of muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing on the stone slab for people to learn.

When the muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing slate was finished, the world of the realm Pearl would be shattered.

……

The moment the realm Pearl shattered, 18 golden lights shot up into the sky from Lingxiao city, which was in Xia Pingan’s Secret mandala.

In the golden light, stone tablets appeared in the city. On the stone tablets, there were various illustrations of the muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing cultivation techniques.

When the golden light dissipated, the people in high heaven city were in an uproar. Countless citizens and soldiers came to the stone tablet to study.

……

increased divine power limit by 180 points! In the secret chamber, Xia Pingan opened his eyes and smiled. After fusing with this realm Pearl, the upper limit of his divine power had become 27498. He had gained a lot.

What made Xia ping ‘an most interested and expectant was that the people in the secret mandala seemed to have set off a craze for cultivating muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing again, especially the militia and the summoned Army in the city, as well as the Templars stationed in the city. Almost everyone was practicing it.

The cultivation maps and the Taiyi golden essence purpose in the cultivation Palace in the city were too difficult for ordinary people to comprehend. However, as long as one persevered and followed the map, even ordinary people could cultivate muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing. There were almost no restrictions.

……

After fusing the two realm pearls, Xia Pingan had a good night’s sleep in his room to recover his energy. Early the next morning, he left his room in high spirits and let the mechanical puppet lead the way. He was ready to learn the secret classic of the divine Spirit skill.

[ Note 1: in the preface of ” performing muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing internal cultivation manual “, Shuguan Zhou only said that he saw master Jing Yi kongwu’s Dharma form when he stayed at Tonghui temple, but he didn’t say what he saw. According to the rumors in the martial arts world during the Republic of China, someone saw Master Sun Lutang’s body glow when he practiced muscle tendon changing at night, so Tiger made a hypothesis here. ]

[ Note 2: Zhang Yao was a student of Shuguan Zhou. She was also the key figure who passed down the ” performing muscle tendon changing and marrow cleansing internal cultivation manual ” on the stone slab after Shuguan Zhou’s death. ]
