Chapter 74: Ren Meridian Opening
Time flies, more than ten days have passed, and the day when Fusu sets out for the Buddhist world is approaching.
On this day, Zhou Zhilu was talking with Tu Qing in the Demon Appraisal Department.
"Buddhist censorship? What is that?" Zhou Zhilu asked in confusion.
Tu Qing explained: "The reason why there is a Buddhist review process is because the Buddhist world is a special area. It is located in the Western Regions. Although it belongs to our Great Song Dynasty, it is not under our control.
“Because the Buddhist world is located at a crucial point in the Western Regions, it cannot be left unattended, so the late emperor once wanted to conquer the Buddhist world by force.
“However, the Buddhist world was also quite powerful, and at that time, the people suffered terribly from the years of war, so the Buddhist world reached an agreement with the Great Song, expressing its willingness to return to the Great Song.
“The only prerequisite is that self-government based on Buddhist principles is allowed within the Buddhist community.
“Although the late emperor agreed, they are still the people and territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so every year we will send people to inspect the situation in the Buddhist world.
“However, generally speaking, there are basically no problems with the autonomy of the Buddhist community, so the so-called review is actually just a formality.
"Although there weren't many incidents, there were many rewards afterward, so it was always a matter of contention between the civil and military factions."
Zhou Zhilu was puzzled when he heard this, "Then why did the higher-ups insist on asking me to go for such a good thing?"
"It seems that the Minister of Personnel specifically pointed out you at the court meeting..."
Tu Qing then sighed and explained, "As I just said, that's under normal circumstances...
“The court has received news that there are rumors that the Buddhist world has recently been in close communication with other countries outside the Western Regions, and this investigation is also to secretly investigate this matter.
"So, the task that was once a hot commodity has now become a hot potato. I heard that the generals learned this news right after they won the leading position in the review. They were so angry that their faces turned black...
"As for you... they said you were better at investigating cases, so they specifically asked you to go. As for the purpose behind this, it's self-evident."
"Haha..." Zhou Zhilu said with a wry smile, "That's what I was saying. How could such a good thing happen to me?"
Then he complained, "But why do those civil servants hold grudges so tightly? I just got rid of a few of them, but a high-ranking second-rank official actually took the initiative to plot against a mere sixth-rank Fuye Guard like me..."
However, no matter how much they complained, the imperial court's order had been issued and everything was set in stone.
Although I had originally planned to accompany Fusu to the Buddhist world, I didn't expect to go there in this way.
Fusu was probably the happiest person at this moment. He had originally planned to take Zhou Zhilu on the road alone, but now he had a team of people to chat with him.
…
When I returned home, I found someone to rebuilt the destroyed house.
Fusu went back to Xuanqing Temple, saying that he needed to prepare some things.
As departure was approaching, Zhou Zhilu also had some things that needed to be completed before leaving.
It is to break through the Ren Meridian.
Zhou Zhilu was seen sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, with majestic spiritual energy surrounding his body.
During this period of time, Zhou Zhilu has been compressing the spiritual energy in his body in order to accumulate spiritual energy and break through the Ren Meridian in one fell swoop.
Feeling that the spiritual energy in his body was almost unsuppressible, Zhou Zhilu activated the Liangyi Xuanqing Gong, mobilizing the spiritual energy to rush towards the Ren meridian in one fell swoop.
The spiritual energy expanded upward along the Qugu acupoint, and the suppression for many days finally rebounded at this moment.
It successfully surpassed the chest cavity reached in the previous attempt to expand.
But when Zhou Zhilu felt the decline, he frowned slightly.
Sure enough, when the spiritual energy broke through to the neck and was only one step away from the Chengjiang point under the lips, the momentum was exhausted.
Seeing that the spiritual energy was about to decline, Zhou Zhilu suddenly waved his hand, and the "Book of Boundaries" appeared before his eyes.
He wrote quickly: "In the 378th year of the Great Song Dynasty, the Buddhist community in the Western Regions has been in close communication with the powerful country to the west for the past year."
The handwriting was confirmed to be authentic.
However, the information was too vague, so the "Book of the Realm" only reflected white spiritual energy.
But for Zhou Zhilu, who was just one step away from success, it was enough.
With the influx of mist, the spiritual energy that had originally run out of momentum climbed upwards again and broke through to the Chengjiang acupoint in an instant.
The Ren Meridian was finally opened successfully!
At this moment, Zhou Zhilu felt that the blood in his body was flowing faster, constantly washing away the impurities in his body.
As the heart beat, bits of golden light flowed out of the heart and were gradually carried upwards by the blood until they flowed into the eyes.
A sharp pain suddenly came from his eyes, and Zhou Zhilu quickly closed his eyes.
After a while, when his eyes opened again, golden light shone in them, and his supernatural powers and clear eyes opened automatically.
However, the feeling that Ming Qing Ling Mu gave Zhou Zhilu at this time was completely different from before.
Zhou Zhilu instantly reached the roof and looked at the street in the distance.
He kept muttering, "Take the left foot... stop, raise the right hand... turn around... speak..."
In Zhou Zhilu's field of vision, the meridians and the direction of qi in the bodies of all people on the street became clearly visible.
And relying on the direction of meridians and qi, Zhou Zhilu could easily predict what these people's next move would be.
It’s not that he can predict the future, but Zhou Zhilu can capture the signal the moment the other party wants to take action and implement it.
The importance of this in battle is self-evident!
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but recall what the instructor had said in the Fuyesi recruit camp before, that there was a magical power mixed in the Ren and Du meridians.
Breakthroughs in both meridians may bring certain enhancements to your body, or give rise to some new abilities.
