Chapter 666: Cultivation
The Minister of Personnel did not give the prince any face, so the prince wanted to destroy you with a pot of hot water.
But luckily you were smart enough to dodge it.
Because of this incident, the Minister of Personnel reported the prince to the emperor and let all kinds of people tell you how good he is to you.
But you are very clear that the Minister of Personnel reported the prince only because the prince offended him, not because the prince wanted to get your face back.
You still expressed your gratitude, but the Minister of Personnel had no intention of letting you go back. Instead, he kept looking for various teachers to teach you, and asked you to constantly think about various poems and essays, hoping that you would learn to write poetry by yourself.
This is not a difficult task for you. In this era when the Jingkang Shame has not yet occurred, it is very easy for you to memorize some future poems.
But many poems have their limitations. For example, Qinyuanchun. Once this poem comes out, you can sing the Nine Tribes Happy Song.
You cannot create anything grand and majestic because it does not suit your identity.
You cannot create anything sad or nostalgic because it does not suit your identity.
However, after you wrote a few good poems and they were taken by the Minister of Personnel for his own use, you knew what kind of person this guy was.
So, you thought about it for a long time and came up with modern instruments and music.
Then your reputation as a talented woman spread further and further, and more people began to look forward to meeting you and sleeping with you.
You also know the time when you will get married.
14 years old.
It's still better than ordinary people.
In the ninth year, the five-line musical notation you created won you a lot of preferential treatment, because the Minister of Personnel did not think it was something great, so he did not put your name on it like he did in the previous times.
However, everyone with a discerning eye knew his literary talent, so his political opponents soon exposed him at a ceremony, and the incident caused quite a stir.
But your name has also completely entered the vision of princes and even emperors.
At a private banquet, the emperor invited the Minister of Personnel, who was sensible to bring you along, as well as the song and dance troupe you had organized.
Although Girls' Generation's dances do not require much technical skills, their strange costumes and thigh-revealing dance moves easily made these people smile.
Just when you think you are fine, a bunch of people start criticizing you for being immoral.
However , you also know that this is not a criticism of you, but a way of using you to attack the Minister of Personnel behind you.
But His Majesty the Emperor was still very happy. After eating some snacks you made, he said he could promise you one thing.
You knew this guy meant well, but unfortunately, even if you asked him to take you home, the result would be nothing more than being held captive for a while.
It is impossible for your parents to keep you, and considering their expectations and vision of life, selling you is really good for you in their eyes.
Because you don't have to farm, and there are people to serve you, and as for having sex with people...
Who would care about this when they are cultivating the land for Shaolin Temple?
They will envy you.
So you asked to borrow the Taoist Canon.
The emperor was very surprised and nodded in agreement.
You flipped through the royal Taoist canon and immediately discovered many things that were not available in the Taoist canon outside. And because you often brought snacks to the guards and let your maids play with them while they were on guard, the guards didn't care much about what you did.
As for the chief guard, he was an old man. You were always very polite and kept asking him various things for advice, treating him like a teacher. He turned a blind eye and didn't say anything even if you took other books. He would even take the initiative to answer your questions occasionally.
You have discovered many things, many things in the Taoist scriptures about how to practice, and many of these things are vague.
But after you read through all the Taoist scriptures and the martial arts secrets collected by the royal family, you will find that it is not that they are vague, but that in ancient times, this is all they knew about internal energy.
Because everyone is so unskilled, people who are slightly proficient in martial arts seem very powerful.
Moreover, people in ancient times practiced internal energy in order to achieve immortality and transcendence, but many modern internal energy secrets have clearly gone astray and are mainly focused on killing.
After the old eunuch on guard found out that you were very fond of martial arts, he gave you a secret book. After reading it, you found out that the secret book was called the Sunflower Manual.
"Why is it called the Sunflower Manual?"
You are very curious.
"Although the people above said it was for the purpose of yang orientation, but in reality... well, you have to know that it is very difficult to lift it after having your balls cut off."
The old eunuch had a strange smile on his face.
You continue to study and find that martial arts that focus on killing are indeed very useful in the early stages, and can even be effective before they are fully developed. However, martial arts like the Yi Jin Jing are not the same, and they must be practiced to full development to be effective.
But correspondingly, those who have cultivated to great success are quite difficult to deal with.
You think and research and discover the root of the problem.
This ancient internal skill is all about improving basic attributes. No matter how many magical powers you have, they can only make your body stronger and improve basic attributes. It is basically a set of general principles. The better the summary, the easier it is to practice. Even if you practice randomly, nothing will happen. As long as you don't deviate from the general principles, there is no such thing as going astray.
But in the early stage, except for those with extraordinary talents, there is no way to improve the combat effectiveness too much, and it is very difficult to train.
The current internal strength is about how to use the internal force to kill the enemy. This kind of thing is naturally easy to go astray. Once you go wrong or your physical condition is not suitable, you will immediately go astray. But it is very easy to practice. As long as you learn the moves, have the internal force, and add the corresponding martial arts, you will immediately become stronger.
And the so-called matching moves are not nonsense, in some of the martial arts schools you find here, some qi circulation routes and school moves overlap, or are connected. As long as you use your internal energy with all your strength, the power and speed of attack will naturally increase when you use the martial arts of this school.
You thought about it for a long time and finally decided on your own path.
So you spoke to the old eunuch with a smile.
"My new method may be able to do what the Sunflower Method can't do."
Your words made the old eunuch smile. Although this mental method was not clean at the beginning, it actually carries one of their wishes.
That is to regenerate something.
You continue to study in this scripture library, and during this time you constantly produce various literary works from later generations to submit your results in order to extend your time here.
Finally, one winter night , you found the method that suits you best.
A method that absorbs heat and light all the time, and uses internal energy to strengthen the visceral nerves, bone marrow, spinal cord and brain to the maximum extent!
