Chapter 279 A Day in the Life of Qiu Chuji (1)
Qiu Chuji laughed and said, "You mean you have nothing to do all day, and this is what you learned?"
Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "For those who study Taoism, even if they are just wandering in the woods, they are still realizing the Tao. How can that be called doing nothing?"
Qiu Chuji laughed and said, "Okay, you are just lazy. You have no choice. From now on, just follow me, your Grandmaster. Wherever I go, you go too. Do you understand?"
Xin Zhen suddenly felt a headache. If this was the case, he would not be able to live a leisurely life. His chickens and ducks would probably have to be given to Grandma Sun.
But seeing that Qiu Chuji had made up his mind, he was afraid that he would not be able to refuse, so he had to agree.
And this became Xin Zhen's nightmare.
The next day, before dawn, Yin Zhiping woke him up early. He looked at Yin Zhiping in confusion and asked, "Master, why did you call me so early?"
Yin Zhiping said: "You must go to your master's door and wait, because he may ask you to do something at any time. If your master wants to go out, you must follow him immediately. This is what we call having him by your side to do things."
Xin Zhen covered his head with the quilt and said, "If that's the way it is, whoever wants to go can go, but I'm not going anyway."
Yin Zhiping said, "It's up to you then. I'll get busy now."
Yin Zhiping did not urge Xin Zhen and just left.
After a while, Xin Zhen sat up, sighed, then got up, washed, went to the cafeteria to have breakfast, brought a portion for Qiu Chuji, and then staggered to Qiu Chuji's room.
Xin Zhen was about to knock on the door and enter, but after thinking it over, he put his breakfast on the steps and sat down on them himself. Hey, just to play.
Taoist priests passing by saw Xin Zhen slumped at the door of Qiu Chuji, and they couldn't help but stare at him. An elderly Taoist priest even mouthed a warning to Xin Zhen: Don't be rude!
Xin Zhen did his own thing and even found a pillar to lean against. Comfort is the most important thing.
The weather was cold, but Xin Zhen's inner strength had long reached the level of inner strength transformation, so the cold did not prevent him from... falling asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, the door quietly opened, and when Qiu Chuji stepped out of the room, he saw Xin Zhen sleeping against a pillar.
He was not angry, but held his breath and listened to Xin Zhen's breathing, only to hear that Xin Zhen's breathing was so low and slow that it was difficult to hear. Qiu Chuji thought, ordinary people breathe heavily, people with superb internal skills breathe slowly, long, lightly and deeply, but Xin Zhen's breathing was so low and slow!
Qiu Chuji admired in his heart and thought, I don't know how this kid cultivated his internal strength. At such a young age, he has such strong internal strength. This internal strength is even stronger than his own. It seems that he is not wasting his time, but spending it on cultivating internal strength.
Qiu Chuji's gaze seemed to have aroused Xin Zhen's vigilance. Qiu Chuji just looked at him, and Xin Zhen opened his eyes. Seeing Qiu Chuji looking at him, Xin Zhen stood up and said with a smile: "Master, I brought you breakfast. I was afraid that you were still sleeping, so I waited for you at the door."
Qiu Chuji took a look at the cold breakfast and said with a smile, "You are so thoughtful. Give me the breakfast."
Xin Zhen quickly handed it over, Qiu Chuji put it in the room, then came out and walked in front, and Xin Zhen quickly followed.
Qiu Chuji strode forward. Xin Zhen had short calves and could not keep up with him normally. He could only take a deep breath and use light body kung fu, which looked a little funny to outsiders.
Qiu Chuji brought Xin Zhen to the lobby, which was already crowded with Taoists. Qiu Chuji sat down in the front and Xin Zhen stood behind him.
Afterwards, the Taoists recited Taoist scriptures. This is a compulsory course for Taoists every day. The so-called meditation practice, sitting in a circle and keeping quiet, cultivating both the body and the soul.
An hour later, the morning class ended and the Taoists dispersed. Qiu Chuji took Xin Zhen to a cliff, which should have been specially leveled for viewing the scenery or practicing martial arts.
It was around eight o'clock in the morning and the sun was shining brightly, adding a touch of warmth to this rocky twelfth lunar month.
Xin Zhen rolled up his sleeves and watched Qiu Chuji practice martial arts. He saw Qiu Chuji practice sword skills first, and then practiced boxing and palm skills. Qiu Chuji was indeed the most skilled in martial arts among the Seven Quanzhen Masters. No matter whether it was sword skills, boxing or palm skills, he became more skilled with age and had his own unique features.
After the practice, Qiu Chuji asked, "Why, don't you want to practice?"
Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "I'm too sleepy. I don't want to practice."
When Qiu Chuji heard this, he was furious. You are so lazy even when you are with me. What’s the point of keeping you with me?
Qiu Chuji laughed and said, "Are you sleepy? That's easy. Master will help you wake up." After saying that, he waved his hand and grabbed it.
Qiu Chuji originally wanted to try out Xin Zhen's martial arts. Although Xin Zhen had scared away Huo Du and injured Dalba in the hall at that time, he still had to test his own level to see how good his martial arts were.
But Xin Zhen did not dodge or avoid, allowing Qiu Chuji to catch him, and even said with a smile: "Grandmaster, I accept the beating and punishment."
Qiu Chuji snorted and exerted force with his hands, trying to lift Xin Zhen up, but Xin Zhen did not shake at all and was as steady as a rock.
Qiu Chuji cried out in surprise and immediately increased his strength, using 50% of his strength this time, but Xin Zhen still smiled and did not move at all.
Qiu Chuji immediately had the urge to win, he took a deep breath, grabbed Xin Zhen's arms with both hands, and squeezed his hands hard. His face suddenly turned purple, indicating that he was going all out.
Xin Zhen felt a tremendous force coming from Qiu Chuji's hands. He smiled and placed his hands on Qiu Chuji's hands. Qiu Chuji suddenly felt the strength in his hands go away, and his feet felt a little weak. Then he felt Xin Zhen let go of his arms, and Qiu Chuji staggered back.
Qiu Chuji looked at Xin Zhen again, and he was still standing there calmly.
Qiu Chuji was surprised and asked, "What kind of Kung Fu is this?"
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "It's just a small trick to relieve force, not worth mentioning." In fact, it was the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.
Qiu Chuji looked at Xin Zhen deeply. They were both martial arts masters, and just from seeing this one move, he was able to confirm many things.
Qiu Chuji was basically certain that Xin Zhen's internal strength far exceeded that of their fellow disciples, and might be almost the same as Guo Jing, or even stronger than Guo Jing.
One can imagine how shocked Qiu Chuji was when he learned this fact. You know, Xin Zhen is only fourteen years old now, but his internal strength is so powerful. If he continues to improve at this rate, wouldn't he be another Master Wang Chongyang?
When Qiu Chuji thought of this, an idea suddenly emerged in his mind like spring grass: I want to introduce this boy to Taoism and let him lead the Quanzhen Sect to grow and develop!
Xin Zhen only thought that Qiu Chuji wanted to test his strength, but he had no idea that Qiu Chuji had such a vicious idea. If he knew, he might have run away immediately.
If you are a Taoist priest and are not allowed to eat meat, only a fool would want to be one.
