Chapter 279 The Way of Health
Following Chen Tuan, Guo Hao came to the side hall, opened a door, and a scent of medicine came to his face.
"Please see, this is the wine I drink!"
Looking around, I saw a lot of medicinal herbs in the room, including pine nuts, atractylodes, poria cocos and other raw medicines. Guo Hao didn't understand what Chen Tuan meant, so he turned to look at him.
"Those who fast the grains do not eat the five grains, take Qi, drink, eat and medicine, and be quiet inside and outside, which means the spirit is beautiful, and the spirit is harmonious. The harmony of the qi means the vital energy will arrive from the arrival of the vital energy, and the vital energy will be nourished from the five internal organs.
When the five internal organs are moist, the circulation of all meridians is the response to body fluids. When the circulation of all meridians is the response to body fluids, the response to body fluids does not require the five flavors.
The five flavors stop, hunger and thirst will not arise, hunger and thirst will not arise, the three fields will become body, firm bones and flesh, and rejuvenate to the age, and gradually from then on."
What Chen Tuan said was mysterious, and Guo Hao didn't understand it, but looking at the things in it, Guo Hao also guessed some of them.
In fact, the fasting method is to avoid eating grains and cereals, but to eat protein and high-lipid medicines to nourish the body's qi and blood and enrich the elements of life.
It is rumored outside that Chen Tuan is just drinking, which is impossible. Accepting Qiqi and fasting requires auxiliary food, so many people don’t know about this.
"Thank you, Master, for answering your questions. So that's how fasting is!"
As a modern person, Guo Hao knows what proteins and vitamins are necessary elements needed by the human body and cannot be supplemented by alcohol.
However, there is one thing in later generations that really makes people live by "drinking water". This kind of thing cannot be done now, that is, the human nutrition solution used by many hospitals for people who cannot eat.
"The Duke of the State wants to maintain health, fasting is a good way, but it may be difficult for the Duke of the State to do it, so let's talk about other methods."
Guo Hao nodded when he heard this. Chen Tuan was right. He was not a Taoist practitioner. He was in the mundane world and could not avoid fireworks.
"In this way, what good is Taoist priest? What I want is a real health preservation method, not the art of making lead and mercury into elixir, and the enlightenment of gold and silver.
I don’t know if I have a long life, but it will also affect my lifespan!”
When Guo Hao said that, Chen Tuan kept looking at him with a smile. After Guo Hao finished speaking, Chen Tuan said, "Good, in fact, the Duke of the State has already known the way to maintain health, but he has no choice but to do so.
But the alchemy and health preservation is not nothing. I have a copy of "Wuji Tu" that can be given to the Duke of the Kingdom. If the Duke of the Kingdom can understand one or two, it will naturally prolong his life."
As he said that, Chen Tuan took out a scroll from the Taoist robe and handed it to Guo Hao with both hands. Guo Hao took it with both hands and opened it carefully.
At first glance, there are only a few circles, but the words are corresponding to the next, and the right one is: Get the trick, practice yourself, merge with others, get medicine. The first few words are very mysterious, and the last one is even more amazing. He turned out to be born into an immortal!
On the left, it corresponds to the Taoist realm: the gate of Xuanpin, refining essence into qi and qi into spirit, five qi are facing the Yuan, taking Kan and filling Li, returning to Wuji to refine the spirit and refining it against the emptiness...
A pair of "Wuji Picture" made Guo Hao confused. Guo Hao had heard of some words, and he had read "The Book of Changes", and he could even memorize them.
But the explanation of the meaning is far from that.
"Master Taoist, I really can't understand your "Wuji Picture". If you say that the trick is to perceive acupoints, practicing yourself is to open up the meridians, and combining harmony is to integrate and integrate, then what does the medicine mean!"
"Medical medicine is the essence and energy. We call elixirs external medicine, and this essence and energy are internal medicine. If you get internal medicine, all diseases will not be invaded, and even if there is any injury, you can recover!"
After Chen Tuan explained this, Guo Hao suddenly realized. According to what he said, wouldn’t that essence look very similar to the internal strength in martial arts novels?
Taoist practice is mostly internal martial arts, which reminds Guo Hao of a set of boxing techniques that were rampant in later generations - Tai Chi!
"Master Taoist, I have a set of boxing techniques here. Please help me see if it has any health benefits."
"oh?"
As he said that, Guo Hao walked out of the side hall, came to the yard, then set off his posture, recalling the routine of Tai Chi, and started fighting with one move at a time.
When it comes to Tai Chi, Guo Hao learned to exercise his body. This was his first time practicing after traveling through time because he couldn't use it on the battlefield.
Chen Tuan looked at Tai Chi and couldn't help but be surprised and said, "The gentle changes in the Duke's boxing style are somewhat similar to those of the water boxing created by me!"
"Water Fist?"
Guo Hao stopped the movement in his hand, and saw Chen Tuan tapping the toes, jumping into the air and falling into the yard. When he landed, he sounded very lightly, and then he shook his Taoist robe and started practicing.
Guo Hao looked at Chen Tuan without turning his eyes, and saw that the boxing was rich in content and unique in technique. The boxing posture was like the rolling water, the internal strength was like the sea and the rivers, with the whole force as the core, the footwork as the transfer, and the gentleness as the change.
With a set of boxing skills, Guo Hao saw the shadow of three sets of boxing!
And these three sets of boxing are: Xingyi, Bagua, and Tai Chi!
Now that happened, Guo Hao has finally determined the purpose of coming to Fangzhou this time. If he can learn this set of boxing, he will have to fight and maintain health. It is simply killing two birds with one stone!
"I don't know if the master can teach this set of boxing skills. I would like to be a master of Taoism!"
As he said that, Guo Hao was about to kneel down, but a purple shadow passed by. Chen Tuan had already appeared in front of Guo Hao and held him.
"The Duke of the State does not need to be like this. I can teach you boxing. You don't have to worship me as your teacher. You just need to agree to me."
"Okay, let alone one thing, it's ten white pieces. As long as it's something Guo can do, I'll agree to Taoist priest!"
When asking for help, people like to say this. In fact, this sentence is the most unreliable. What you can do is to say nothing if you say it.
However, Chen Tuan didn't seem to care and nodded with a smile: "What I want to do is to enfeoff Wudang and promote Wulong!"
Hearing that Chen Tuan wanted to enfeoff Wudangshan, this seemed to be something he could do, because only the emperor had this right.
As for Xing Wulong, this is simple. He has money, and the most convenient thing is to donate money and let the Wulong Temple expand itself. It is OK to build as big as it wants.
"Feng Wudang, I will go back to talk to His Majesty. When he has time, I will advise him to come and take a look.
As for building a Taoist temple, the Taoist priest will open a number, and I will send someone to send money immediately. The Taoist priest can start construction at any time!"
Hearing Guo Hao say this, Chen Tuan smiled again and said, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, these two things are the best together."
"Okay, I'll do it soon."
Guo Hao knew that there were not many years since the Later Zhou Dynasty, and Lao Zhao should have ascended the throne. If Chai Rong could not do this, he would probably not know when it would take until Lao Zhao succeeded to the throne. After all, he was very busy with founding the country.
At this time, a young Taoist came over and saw the "Wuji Tu" that Guo Hao was holding. He was stunned and thought to himself: "Why did Master give him "Wuji Tu"? I can't even read it casually!"
The young Taoist priest walked up to the two of them, first bowed to Chen Tuan, then bowed to Guo Hao, and said, "Master, Duke, the food is ready, are you going to have a meal?"
After the young Taoist said that, Guo Hao looked at Chen Tuan. He had already climbed the mountain early in the morning and walked more than ten miles of mountain road. It was an hour before he got on the mountain. He was indeed a little hungry.
"You're welcome to be a polite Taoist priest. We have many people, so we can solve it ourselves."
Chen Tuan smiled when he heard this and said, "Do it yourself, what are you going to eat? You may not be enough for you to eat, you can't kill those birds and beasts!"
Guo Hao was a little embarrassed when he heard this. He did have plans to eat wild game, but Chen Tuan suggested that he should not do anything randomly.
"Let's go. I want to learn my boxing skills, but I can't learn it overnight. I just started to move, and I happened to be hungry, so let's go eat together!"
After Chen Tuan finished speaking, the disciple thought he had heard it wrong. What did his master just say?
Learn boxing!
Have a meal together!
If I had known Chen Tuan’s old Taoist boxing skills, I would not have learned it if I had no direct disciples!
The old Taoist has always insisted on fasting, but now he wants to break the precepts for a mortal?
With the addition of the "Wuji Tu" in Guo Hao's hands, the disciple has begun to doubt whether Guo Hao is the illegitimate son of the old Taoist. Even if he is his own son, he will be treated like this!
The disciple was thinking randomly while guiding the two of them. If Chen Tuan knew that he thought so, he would probably slap him, but Guo Hao didn't notice anything.
The disciple always doubted this and secretly observed Chen Tuan and Guo Hao. He found that the two did not look similar at all, and he never understood it in his heart.
