Chapter 5 Cultivation of the Spring Breeze Technique and the Soaring Dragon Sword Technique
Zhang Xuanqing sighed, then slowly picked up the exorcism talisman to admire it: "Amazing, truly amazing."
After admiring it for a moment, he handed it to Xiaoxue: "Go back and put it in your brocade pouch to wear. This is just a spare. It's not as useful as the talisman in her palm."
Xiao Xinshi hurriedly said, "This... Abbot, how can I thank this Taoist priest?"
The ability to condense talismans in mid-air clearly demonstrates the skill of a master. Not to mention, he identified all of his daughter's flaws with just a glance.
Zhang Xuanqing looked at Zhou Zheng with a questioning look in his eyes, knowing that he couldn't make the decision for him.
Zhou Zheng waved his hand: "You're too kind, it was just a favor. Miss Xiaoxue was troubled by evil spirits, and it's my blessing to be able to help. This is all for me to accumulate merit. Yesterday I tried my best to draw talismans but couldn't draw a first-grade talisman. Today I drew two right away. I should be thanking Miss Xiaoxue."
The believer was thrilled and clasped his hands together, saying, "Master Zhou, please give me your contact information. I will pray for you every day after I return!"
Zhou Zheng glanced at Xiaoxue and laughed, "You know, concern makes you confused. The talisman issue is resolved, but the menstrual irregularities and cold constitution haven't been resolved yet. I only know how to draw one talisman; I don't know any more."
Zhang Xuanqing chimed in, "Xiaoxinshi, Master Zhou is busy with his cultivation and doesn't have much free time. If you need anything, please come to me."
Xiaoxue glanced at the keychain pendant on Zhou Zheng's waist and suddenly asked, "Does Daoist Zhou also watch Frillie's movies?"
Zhou Zheng's eyes lit up: "You watch Frillie too?"
Xiaoxue tried hard to ignore the gazes of the elders around her: "Yes, the second season recently started, have you been watching it?"
Zhou Zheng slapped his thigh, pulled out his phone, and showed a QR code: "Scan me! By the way, do you play games?"
Xiaoxue beamed: "I have over 300 games in my Steam library, all of them DLCs."
Zhou Zheng looked at her with admiration: "Rich lady, please join my family group! I also own over 300 games, but I haven't bought all the DLCs. Those things are too expensive, especially Paradox Interactive's Stellaris, it's a disaster zone!"
Xiaoxue's eyes lit up as she quickly scanned the QR code to add him as a friend: "Call me when you get home. I'll go online right away and start a game. Let's team up and play a game of StarCraft. I'll play Dragon and start with Golem and Disaster."
Brother Zhou gave a thumbs up: "Good taste. I'll step aside and leave."
In just a few words, the two became friends and even developed a mutual respect.
Xuan Yizi stared in disbelief: "What are they talking about?"
Zhang Xuanqing shook his head: "I don't know. Do you know Xiaoxinshi?"
Xiao Xinshi gave an awkward smile: "We were talking about games. My daughter plays games all day long, shouting something about the Extinction Star Sea, and she uses that thing called Silk Kick Wood. I hope you won't laugh at me, Daoist."
Zhou Zheng was all smiles when he suddenly noticed that the entry above Xiaoxue's head had changed.
【Xiaoxue (Invasion by Evil Spirits)】
【Xiaoxue (Immune to external evils)】
A visible black mist rose from behind Xiaoxue, melting away like winter snow meeting the warm sun.
Xiaoxue shivered involuntarily: "Hiss, it feels so good, my body suddenly feels warm."
Zhou Zheng let out a soft "Eh?": "Did you guys see that black mist coming out from behind you just now?"
Xuan Yizi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I haven't opened my Heavenly Eye."
Zhang Xuanqing: "...I haven't opened my third eye either."
Xiao Xinshi: "What black aura? I don't see it."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "It's alright, this matter is resolved. Master Zhang, please write a prescription for Miss Xiaoxue."
Master Zhang rolled up his sleeves: "No trouble at all, young lady. Please sit here, I'll examine your tongue and take your pulse."
Zhou Zheng stepped aside, making room for him.
Xiaoxue sat down and offered her her hand. Zhang Xuanqing examined her tongue, took her pulse for a while, asked a few questions, then took out paper and pen from the drawer and wrote down the prescription: "You can get this from any pharmacy. It should be effective in a few days. It's best to get some sunshine every morning to lower your cortisol levels. The biggest problem for young people these days is staying up late and not getting any sunlight..."
Zhou Zheng touched his cheek. Although he couldn't understand anything related to medicine, he could only say that the old doctor's opinions and suggestions were indeed true—the old doctor was still too authoritative.
Xiaoxue blushed slightly, glanced at Zhou Zheng, and noticed that "Immortal Zhou" also looked uneasy, so she immediately relaxed.
Xiaoxinshi held the prescription and thanked them profusely, putting his hands together in a Buddhist gesture: "Thank you, Master Zhang, thank you, Master Zhang... Then I won't bother you any longer. Xiaoxue, I'll take you to get the medicine."
Xiaoxinshi helped his daughter up, thanked her again, and then led her straight to the outside of the farmers' market to find a pharmacy.
As Xiaoxue was being pulled along, she turned her head and made a phone call gesture to her ear, then winked mischievously, indicating that they would play games together when they got back.
Zhou Zheng made an OK sign to indicate that there was no problem.
Xuan Yizi clasped his hands together, watching Xiao Xinshi walk away. "Senior brother, when are you going to correct her hand gestures?"
Zhang Xuanqing glanced at his phone and showed the screen to his junior brother: "Look at the message. They donated 10,000 yuan to our Baiyun Temple, plus a new double-person standing refrigerator. Why don't you go and correct it?"
Xuan Yizi laughed heartily: "Never mind then, even if they wish me to become a Buddha, I'll just laugh it off."
Zhang Xuanqing stood up: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, then this time, I'll have my junior brother pay for the talisman..."
Zhou Zheng waved his hand: "No need, that eight thousand yuan is enough for me to paint for two months. We don't need the extra money; let's leave it for those who need it more."
Zhang Xuanqing smiled with emotion and bowed, saying, "Fellow Daoist Zhou is truly compassionate. I will then present this brush, cinnabar, and talisman to you as a token of my appreciation."
Zhou Zheng laughed and reached out to take it: "Okay, I'll take this."
Zhang Xuanqing exchanged a few more pleasantries with Zhou Zheng, then changed the subject, looking at Xuan Yizi: "Junior Brother, I see a stack of inferior talismans in this drawer. Did Fellow Daoist Zhou draw these too?"
His eyes were fixed on Xuan Yizi.
Xuan Yizi's face stiffened, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his back. He raised his sleeve and gently wiped his forehead: "Really? Fellow Daoist Zhou, did you draw this? I can't quite remember."
Zhou Zheng smiled and cupped his hands in greeting: "You two can chat here for now. I'll go back and practice my skills. See you later."
Zhou Zheng stuffed everything into the bag, humming a little tune as he happily left, completely ignoring Xuan Yizi's pleading gaze.
That's right, I let you sell fake talismans.
"Senior brother! You can't blame me! Some people are obviously just looking for peace of mind. This is my psychological treatment fee!"
"That's their business, is this how you handle things?!"
"Senior brother, you know I lost my parents when I was young, and we've relied on each other for survival..."
"You good-for-nothing, go back and copy the scriptures! Go back now!"
……
When Zhou Zheng got home, he projected his phone screen onto the LCD TV in the living room.
Since my parents moved away, the TV hasn't been turned on for a long time.
"Thankfully it still works. Let me see which one I should choose."
Xuan Yizi granted himself special permissions in the Baiyun Temple APP, allowing him to view most files directly. The few he couldn't view were probably special books.
However, there is basically enough publicly available material for one's own research for a lifetime, including medical books.
It truly is a book that takes you from beginner to grave.
After careful consideration, Zhou Zheng finally chose two basic training methods to lay a solid foundation.
One is the internal martial art "Rejuvenation Technique", and the other is the external martial art sword technique "Wandering Dragon Sword Technique".
The former can strengthen the body and slightly restore spiritual power, while the latter, when combined with the former, can lay the foundation for opening up the meridians and cultivating to the tenth level, the highest realm... which is just cultivating to the highest realm.
Click to play the Youlong Sword Technique tutorial video. A spirited old man begins his lecture with a strong voice, accompanied by demonstrations of the movements, which are as fast as lightning and accompanied by a "whoosh" sound as they cut through the air.
Zhou Zheng was stunned: "This cultivation is quite advanced. He's seventy or eighty years old and still so energetic. I need to practice more."
Only such a strong person is worthy of teaching me how to cultivate immortality. Even if I can't achieve immortality, it's still a blessing in life for an old man like me to be able to wield a sword like a dragon in my old age.
