Chapter 100 Enlightenment Realm, Unhappy
Li Haoran did not say anything. He knew that they were clearing the obstacles to their progress. After a moment, Li Qiu woke up and said that both internal strength and energy were not on the same level as before.
As for Duan Susu, she was completely immersed in a state of joy and selflessness. But seeing her using her finger to make a move slowly, the sword technique in her hand was separated from the category of moves, and the heart sword was integrated, and the moves were endless. The moves were round and perfect, and the coherence between moves was no longer dull. [bsp; Her sword moves were full of spirituality. In Li Haoran's eyes, she had already seen the path of sword art, and reached the state of unity of the heart sword, with sword in her heart, and sword in her heart.
The more Li Qiu looked, the more surprised, and the more he looked, the more serious he looked. He felt Duan Susu's movements stretched, and his spirit and form were both wonderful. The sword moves were round, and the circles did not disappear, and the circles rose again and again, flowing clouds and water, which seemed hard but not hard, and soft but not soft, which was a rare magic in the world.
He looked at Duan Susu and was even more surprised, but when he saw the smile on his lips, full of joy and excitement, she did not move at all, Li Qiu felt that Duan Susu in front of him seemed to have completely lost trace and completely dissolved in the surrounding scenery.
Even though people remain the same, he still felt that she was like an eternal decoration in the room. It seemed that she was originally there, not alone, and she had become an indispensable part of nature.
A hint of envy flashed through Li Qiu's heart, of course, it was more of happiness, because this was the "intellectual enlightenment of the mind" in martial arts.
According to the old martial arts, Bodhi Mo sat in the Bodhi tree for seven days and seven nights, and created the "Yijin Jing" in Shaolin Temple's unique sect, which was the master of the Shaolin Temple, and opened up a sect that has been eternal. Li Qiu always believed that it was just a legend. Shaolin Temple deified their ancestors, but the legend that he disdains appeared in front of him alive. How could you not be surprised or excited?
Li Qiu's rival has a rare opportunity. After being excited, he put away his distracting thoughts and relied on his cultivation to experience Duan Susu's movements.
His eyes were like a torch, and he did not blink, and he did not dare to miss this eternal opportunity. He was letting his memory remember the trajectory of the "sword", waiting for careful thinking in the future. With his skills and insights at this time, he could improve the sword skills he had learned in the future, and it would also be of great benefit to his cultivation.
Li Haoran looked helpless. He never expected that his casual words would bring such a big impact to Duan Susu. He realized the truth at the wrong time and in the wrong place, and he really didn't know what to do. Judging from Li Qiu's appearance, he seemed to be addicted to it. Alas, he was so trapped. If someone came, he really didn't know what to do. However, such an encounter was hard to come by for Duan Susu, so he couldn't let her stop.
There are only a few days for "understanding the mind of Taoism" and some are always for more than ten years. It depends on a person's spirituality. He believes that Duan Susu is talented and intelligent, but he cannot guarantee that she can complete the practice of the mind in just a few days.
The amount of gains of "understanding the mind of Taoism" is not about the length of time or the level of cultivation, but only about the understanding of martial arts by those who "understanding the mind of Taoism" and a person's understanding of martial arts. After enlightenment, internal skills and tricks are a qualitative leap. More importantly, it is helpful for future development. In other words, Duan Susu wakes up and she will be able to learn any martial arts quickly and learn it very well.
Time flies, and an hour has passed. Li Qiu finally let out a long sigh, walked quietly to Li Haoran, greeted him, Li Haoran nodded, and the two walked to the outside, one after another.
Li Qiu said: "Su Su is really a genius, and she actually achieved this from your words."
"Su Su has reached a bottleneck, and my words are just an auxiliary role. It's a pity that time is wrong!" Li Haoran felt sorry for him. He couldn't throw Duan Susu here! He could only wake her up for the way.
Li Qiu knew Li Haoran’s plan well and frowned and said, “I can hide it in three or four days. If it takes too long, I can do nothing.”
Li Haoran said happily: "It is enough for her to have a lot of knowledge in martial arts, three days is enough for her."
Li Qiu nodded and said, "That's good. The inner room is my personal medicine practice. When I was practicing qigong, I declared to the outside world that I was thinking about new prescriptions, and others would not doubt it. After dawn, I just need to talk to Wang Hongyan and all difficulties can naturally be solved. I have prepared enough elixirs he needs for a month, just hand them over to him."
Li Haoran said: "Uncle, please watch it for a while. I will come when I go. I have two friends outside to pick me up. I am afraid they are worried, so I will explain it."
"You go! I'm here, don't worry." Li Qiu said with a sigh. He knew that Li Haoran might have to move in in the next few days, and there are some questions to ask him for advice during this period.
...
Li Haoran found Huang Yaoshi and Zhou Botong, told the two of Duan Susu's situation, and asked them to wait patiently for a few days. He made an appointment to meet here in the evening four days later. The two of them didn't say anything, knowing that such an opportunity was not something that everyone had, and there was no other explanation except to tell him to be careful.
Back the same way, he went in and looked at Duan Susu, but there was still no sign of waking up, so he stopped caring about her and waited outside with Li Qiu, and asked about the situation of the palace and the gunpowder formula.
Li Qiu said: "The masters of the Forbidden Palace are like clouds. The truly powerful ones are the top ten worshipers, twenty-eight constellations, thirty-six earthly evil spirits, and seventy-two heavenly spirits. The ten worshipers are hidden very deeply. They are very mysterious. No one knows their origin and surnames. The safety of the emperor, queen, and prince is the responsibility of the twenty-eight constellations; the thirty-six earthly evil spirits are responsible for the safety of the royal family and the concubines; the seventy-two heavenly spirits are those secret whistles. Each of the above three types of people leads two quasi-first-class masters. As for the eunuchs in charge of the Daweni, Wang Hongyan, who is well-versed in martial arts, these people are uneven, both first-class masters and third-rate characters. The two are not in charge of each other and do their own things."
Li Haoran made a rough calculation, couldn't help but be startled and murmured: "So, the strength of this palace is far greater than any sect. Not to mention that Wang Hongyan has more than 300 first-class experts in his hands, and he is quasi-first-class experts."
Li Qiu smiled sarcastically and said, "There were more than a hundred incidents of secret assassination last year. You know that the emperor was very afraid of death, so he spared no effort to bribe the people of the world and gave them a lot of gold, silver and treasures to satisfy their selfish desires. Some of the desperate people in the world said that they had disappeared for a long time, but in fact, many of them were in this palace and were enjoying the emperor's favor!"
"These people are absolutely arrogant and even have a grudge between them. They are actually together and have no trouble. It's really surprising." Li Haoran admired the emperor's methods, because these people cannot be impressed by money.
Li Qiu said: "The emperor naturally has extraordinary means, otherwise he would not ascend to the throne. Li Zong has become increasingly stupid in recent years, but he is a very smart person. Whoever underestimates him or is unlucky, is just an appearance. He ignores political affairs because he focuses on his own safety and eliminating dissidents. Ding Daquan understands his intentions and has all his talents to rise to power. People like Ding Daquan are sharp swords in the hands of Li Zong, eliminating dissidents. If these people do not have the tacit approval of Li Zong, who dares to act so arrogantly?"
Li Haoran deeply felt that how could the descendants of Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of Song Dynasty, be incompetent? History also records that during his reign, the politics of the Song Dynasty had a brief tranquility. If he had no ability, how could he do this? He then asked: "Uncle, is the gunpowder formula only owned by the official? Is the Song court's control over gunpowder very strict?"
Li Qiu thought for a while and thought, "Theory is this, but you also know that gunpowder was invented by ancient alchemists during the alchemist process and originated in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, Sun Simiao, the 'Medical King's' summed up the foundations of the previous alchemists. He collected the recipes from alchemists in Heluo and Guanzhong areas and improved the **. His recipes are also widely circulated among the people, so the statement that the formula only exists in the palace is not correct. However, the control of gunpowder in court is very strict. If a person who collects more than a certain amount of people is found, he will be sentenced to death or even exterminated. Therefore, no one among the people dares to act like a big deal in the world. If a certain organization secretly produces it, I don't know."
Li Haoran came here with excitement, but returned with disappointment, but he was full of disappointment. However, he lost the opportunity to the east corner. This trip cannot be said to have no gains. He found Li Qiu and took Duan Susu's cultivation to a higher level. He also knew that the "Sunflower Book" was indeed in the world, so it cannot be said that he had a trip in vain. But if he wanted to die, the two sisters Lu Wushuang had a life or death, and he couldn't help but feel sad. At the same time, he also doubted his guesses. Perhaps his thoughts had entered a blind spot, and he might have made a mistake in the beginning.
But Li Haoran was not discouraged. He knew that the mysterious organization failed to assassinate him. There must be a second and third time. At that time, he would only capture one person and use "soul-moving **" to force confession. He believed that he could get some information.
However, thinking that those people were captured and committed suicide immediately after taking poison, and would rather die than live, I believe the criminal law within this organization is extremely harsh. Moreover, these people are probably limited in their knowledge, but knowing is better than not knowing anything. If you have news, you can follow the clues and uncover the mystery of the matter one by one.
Li Haoran would not give up on gunpowder matters. He had limited manpower and could not stay in the huge palace every day. So he asked, "So, who is in charge of gunpowder?"
Li Qiu knew the palace very deeply and said without thinking: "Of course it was Wang Hongyan. He was in charge of all the affairs of the forbidden palace, clothing, food, medicine, royal warehouses, etc.."
Li Haoran understood that Wang Hongyan was simply Wei Zhongxian in the late Ming Dynasty. She was covered with her hands in the palace. In the future, just pay more attention when he traveled, and see which officials he had contacted. In this way, things would be relatively simple, which would be considered an unexpected gain!
