Chapter 665: Displaced
When the big monk came again, you pestered him and said that you wanted to learn something that could knock people far away with one palm. He couldn't stand your pestering and taught you a set of breathing techniques. He said that if you could practice the inner skills of this breathing technique before the age of fifteen, he would teach you a set of whip techniques that he learned when he was traveling around the world in his early years.
You looked at this breathing method and found it very interesting.
To do this, you must first visualize a heat flow in your body, and then let the heat flow flow through the meridians. When you are able to imagine that the heat flow flows throughout your entire body, it will be considered a big circulation.
The small circulation revolves around the Ren and Du meridians.
When the heat can exist without fantasy and is always maintained in the Dantian Qi Sea, then it can be considered as a great success.
You got the hang of it pretty easily, but then you discovered a problem.
"Why is it that only Dantian can store internal energy?"
You asked the monk curiously.
"I don't know either. Just practice."
This is his answer, and it is obvious that he will not teach you more.
You begin to study the Taoist and Buddhist scriptures in your memory.
You will find that many of the scriptures originally on Earth are completely different in this world. Except for the philosophical thoughts, many things are different.
For example, after trying the Yi Jin Jing, you find that it is about the same efficiency as the breathing method taught by a monk, or even worse.
So, you start to summarize the differences here.
In the sixth year, you find that after practicing the breathing method, you get hungrier faster. Given that the harvest this year is not very good, you will starve to death if you continue to learn internal skills.
So, you tried to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but it had no effect. You thought about it for a while and found that it was because you did not have the corresponding "organ".
Pores and the like have their original functions.
So, you start absorbing heat.
Half a year later, you successfully developed a method to absorb sunlight and various kinds of light to restore your body's functions, but this method cannot completely replace food. At most, it can help you not get hungry so easily.
The growth of your body still depends on how much you can eat.
But during the Chinese New Year this year, the great monk and an old monk came to your home together. The way the old monk looked at you made you feel very uncomfortable, and just as you expected , something happened.
The old monk said that you have a connection with Buddha.
You were sent to a nunnery in the name of offering sacrifice to Buddha, and the old monk gave your family ten taels of silver, which was a huge sum of money in that era, because your father might not be able to earn half a tael of silver in a year.
Your mother wiped her tears, but when she heard the old monk say that you would be well fed and well clothed there, and that you could learn a musical instrument, and that the family would be able to pay the land rent for three years after you went there, and that you would be able to leave after you turned 25, she smiled and sent you away.
She was really happy because she really thought it was a good thing.
And you are really helpless.
Because you know very well.
There are some decent nunneries, but the one you want to go to is a brothel.
But after thinking about your family's conditions, you didn't say anything.
It's not beyond your imagination.
When you arrive at this so-called nunnery, you don’t even have to shave your head. Every day you learn music, chess, calligraphy, painting, dancing, and a strange kind of martial arts.
This martial art can make one's body more flexible, in better shape, and familiar with some postures for serving others.
That's right, yoga.
You used the excuse of being interested in Buddhist scriptures and deliberately asked for some scriptures to read. You found that the scriptures in this world are indeed different from those on Earth.
Except for the core idea, everything else is completely different!
You began to read Buddhist scriptures constantly, and because of various exercises, you became more and more beautiful.
In the seventh year, you began to help the older sisters in the courtyard do various things, even helping to lead various guests to the rooms of the older sisters, washing clothes and serving tea and water.
You hear a lot of interesting news here and also see the true faces of the so-called literati.
Then something happened again.
An important figure came to the temple, the newly appointed Minister of Personnel, and he came here to entertain guests.
The monks tried their best to entertain him and constantly met his various requests. Various beautiful sisters in the nunnery also served him and his guests. You, the most beautiful girls, were also asked to deliver various cakes.
Then you discovered something very interesting.
You're not even worth as much as a pastry.
The cakes you were carrying cost a total of twenty taels of silver, but the student you delivered them to found them unpalatable and left them there without touching them.
After the banquet, when you went to bring water for washing feet to the elder sisters, they distributed some cakes to you. You ate it and it felt like ordinary sweet cloud cake, but it was already very rare.
However, just as you were nibbling on the cloud cake, the Minister of Personnel rushed into the room with a smile and saw you.
You feel that this guy's eyes are similar to those of the big monk back then.
You couldn’t help but roll your eyes, you knew you had to move .
It is indeed true. When the Minister of Personnel left, you were also taken away.
But compared to the friendlier nunnery, the home of the Minister of Personnel where you had just arrived was simply a hell. There were more than a hundred types of punishments that could kill people. Not only had you been turned directly from a free man into a slave, but the mistress of the house was very unhappy with you and directly poured a basin of cold water on you, then locked you up in the woodshed and didn't give you any food for three days.
But fortunately a servant will bring you something to eat.
But he also made a request.
"When you grow up and the master doesn't want you anymore, can you marry me?"
His request was simple.
Your answer is also very concise.
"I will give you money in the future and let you find a wife yourself."
"It's settled."
You nodded, and then this happy fool was discovered by the mistress when he was bringing you food, and was beaten to death in front of you .
This incident did not alarm the Minister of Personnel, but just when she was about to scratch your face and lock you up in the woodshed, the Minister of Personnel finally remembered you and sent you to a place together with dozens of other girls.
Teaching Office.
It's not about selling you, but letting you be taught by the teaching staff.
There is much more to learn here.
But because you worship Taoism, people like you also need to know a lot of Taoist scriptures, so you learn various knitting and embroidery, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, Analects of Confucius, Book of Songs, dance, makeup, speaking skills, observing people's words and expressions, various taboos, and practice various exercises to make your body look better, while reciting countless Taoist scriptures.
You even have to read newspapers of that era and look at various policy essays to avoid saying the wrong thing.
There are many secret codes in the Taoist canon, but fortunately there are many Taoists and monks visiting here, and as long as you speak nicely, these guys who want to act like heroes in front of the big sisters will tell you.
Your knowledge has been greatly improved.
In the eighth year, you created a new internal energy method based on the scriptures of this world, as well as the knowledge of physics and biology and the concept of endless life. This method not only allows you to absorb calories to replenish your body's consumption and increase your internal strength, but also operates automatically and feeds back to your body, making it healthier. The side effect is that your body will become more beautiful and your digestive ability will become extremely strong.
Because you have a lot of later knowledge in your memory, you learn all kinds of things very quickly. You even have a "fame" and are even called a talented woman, which makes the Minister of Personnel who comes to the Jiaofangsi from time to time very proud.
Then, a prince took a fancy to you, and after asking a group of people to examine your bones, muscles, teeth, and facial shape, he spent 12,000 taels of silver to find the Minister of Personnel to buy you.
You feel even more ridiculous.
Because your parents only got ten taels.
