Zhang Yuan looked at the extremely sensible Lin Weiwei with a gentle look on his face.
He leisurely picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea. He looked as comfortable as if he was under the warm spring sun. Then he whispered to Lin Weiwei:
"Weiwei, I have something to trouble you with.
Please help me prepare a big wooden barrel. Remember, it has to be spacious enough to hold a lot of things.
Bring the barrel over here and fill it with water.
At the same time, there is another key point, don't forget to prepare all the Chinese herbal medicines I asked you to prepare, don't miss any of them."
After saying that, Zhang Yuan put down the teacup, picked up the pen, and looked focused and serious.
I saw him quickly write down a long list of names of Chinese medicinal herbs on the paper. His handwriting was neat and powerful, and every stroke was rigorous.
After each Chinese medicinal ingredient, he noted the corresponding weight in grams in great detail. His meticulousness was as if he was carefully carving a rare work of art, not allowing for the slightest mistake.
After writing down the names of the herbs, Zhang Yuan remained fully focused and noted down the method of decocting the herbs in detail, from the precise control of the heat to the length of time required for decoction, leaving out nothing.
Lin Weiwei stood aside, always maintaining a respectful look, her eyes full of concentration and sincerity. After listening carefully, she responded crisply:
“Okay, Brother Yuan.
Don't worry, I promise to do this properly and there will be absolutely no mistakes, just wait and see."
Just as Lin Weiwei turned around to do these things, Zhang Yuan found a quiet corner in the warehouse.
He slowly sat cross-legged and began to meditate silently, with his eyes lightly closed, his mind focused and his breath calmed, like a monk in meditation, quietly waiting for Wu Xingyun's arrival.
Time passed like a flash, and in less than half an hour, Wu Xingyun's familiar figure appeared in the Chinese medicine clinic on time.
When the two met, there was no need for much words. Due to their tacit understanding, they naturally and enthusiastically and attentively talked about the practice of martial arts.
The words were full of desire and persistence for martial arts improvement. At this critical moment, Lin Weiwei brought a few helpers and worked together to place a large wooden barrel in the warehouse where Zhang Yuan and Wu Xingyun were chatting.
This wooden barrel is surprisingly large. It is spacious, made of high-quality material, thick wood, and has a faint warm luster. It looks like it is big enough to accommodate three people to bathe comfortably in it.
After the wooden barrel was properly placed, someone began to add water. Clear water gushed out from the water pipe and happily poured into the barrel.
At the same time, Lin Weiwei also carefully considered the issue of water temperature and placed an electric water heater that could maintain the water temperature firmly in the wooden barrel to ensure that the water temperature could be constant, neither too hot nor too cold, just right.
Everything was ready. Lin Weiwei walked quietly to Zhang Yuan's side, leaned over slightly, and said softly:
"Brother Yuan, the Chinese medicinal materials you asked me to prepare have already started to be boiled. But it will take at least two hours to finish boiling, so don't worry."
Zhang Yuan heard this and smiled calmly. That smile was like the warmest spring breeze, gently blowing through people's hearts, warming them up. He said softly:
“Two hours is pretty good.
Then, I'll have to thank you for your hard work, Weiwei.
Once the medicine is ready, just bring it in and pour it into the bathtub.
Now you go ahead and get busy. I will start training with all my strength and strive to make a bigger breakthrough."
Lin Weiwei nodded obediently, without saying much, she turned around and left with light steps to do her own thing.
After Lin Weiwei and others filed out, only Zhang Yuan and Wu Xingyun were left in the warehouse.
Wu Xingyun frowned slightly, his eyes full of doubt, staring straight at Zhang Yuan, and couldn't help asking:
"My dear disciple, why do you have such a big tub? And I just heard you say that you want to boil some Chinese medicine and then pour it directly into the tub. Are you going to take a medicinal bath? What kind of medicine is this?"
Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded, explaining calmly:
"Yes, Master. But the specific situation cannot be explained in a few words. There are many tricks involved.
So, let’s practice for a while first.
Although I have now mastered this set of exercises, there are still some subtle points that require your guidance.
After you finish your instructions, I will slowly explain the twists and turns to you. "
Wu Xingyun listened to this and nodded without hesitation, saying:
"Okay, let's get started, don't waste any more time."
Next, Zhang Yuan and Wu Xingyun were like two monks in meditation, with no distractions and fully immersed in the state of cultivation.
The warehouse was silent except for the steady and regular breathing of the two people, like a peaceful piece of music.
This practice lasted about an hour, and every minute and every second was filled with concentration and persistence.
An hour later, Zhang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. He looked very happy and excited. He looked like an explorer who had found a treasure. He said to Wu Xingyun happily:
"Master, I really need your guidance! I have finally mastered this set of exercises thoroughly. I don't know how to describe how happy I am. Thank you so much!"
Wu Xingyun looked at Zhang Yuan, his eyes full of satisfaction and approval. The corners of his mouth slightly raised as he said with a smile:
"My dear disciple, this is all because of your extraordinary talent and outstanding abilities.
If it were an ordinary person, no matter how much I guided him, it would not be as smooth as you. Your talent is truly rare."
Zhang Yuan smiled modestly, scratched his head and said:
“Well, thank you for the compliment, Master.
Now, we can officially talk about the relationship between this technique and the Dantian in your body and the several major blood blockages in your body. There is a big connection here."
Wu Xingyun became alert when he heard this. He straightened up from his originally relaxed posture, and focused his attention. He stared straight at Zhang Yuan and said impatiently:
"My dear disciple, please tell me what is going on.
I am very curious, and my heart is intrigued by you. Please tell me quickly."
Zhang Yuan was also unambiguous, his expression became serious, and he said bluntly:
"Master, I have actually told you the answer before, which is that the technique you are practicing has a slight flaw.
Don't underestimate this flaw, as it is this flaw that has led to your current series of situations.
If you trust me, then for the next hour, follow me and practice my modified technique. Feel it carefully and see if there are any subtle differences. You will know once you try it."
When Wu Xingyun heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He was actually a little shocked by Zhang Yuan.
At first, he found it unbelievable that Zhang Yuan wanted to modify the martial arts. This martial arts method has been passed down for many years, how can it be changed at will?
But now Zhang Yuan not only completed the modification, but also wanted to teach it to him. How could this not shock and excite people?
If it were someone else, Wu Xingyun would definitely find it hard to believe and think it was a fairy tale.
But this person was Zhang Yuan. Somehow, he naturally felt less surprised. On the contrary, he felt more expectant, as if he saw a glimmer of hope to cure his stubborn illness.
Next.
Under Zhang Yuan's guidance, Wu Xingyun embarked on a new journey of cultivation.
The cultivation mode is very unique and has never been seen before.
Although the technique is still the same, Zhang Yuan has made significant changes to some subtle details, especially the key points of breath circulation.
When Wu Xingyun first started practicing, he felt that the energy in his body was not as smooth as before. It was as if the originally flat road suddenly had more bends, and he had to turn around. This feeling of strangeness and obstruction was extremely uncomfortable.
But since she chose to believe in Zhang Yuan, the stubbornness and desire for recovery in her bones supported her, and she was determined to try it bravely to the end and never give up halfway.
Finally, as a big cycle was completed, Wu Xingyun was pleasantly surprised to feel a slight coolness coming from his dantian.
It was as if an eagle-like aura was slowly flowing into his dantian. This new and unique feeling instantly dispelled the discomfort he had felt from his previous practice. It was an experience he had never had before.
Wu Xingyun couldn't help but smile, as if he was a child who had found his favorite candy and was extremely excited.
After a week, she looked at Zhang Yuan and said with emotion:
"My dear disciple, you are truly a genius!
The cultivation method you taught me is so practical that I can hardly believe it’s real. It’s like a dream.”
Seeing Wu Xingyun so satisfied, Zhang Yuan smiled and explained:
"Master, this is not because of how great I am.
All the subtle changes I made to this set of exercises were made in accordance with the medical principles and medical theories in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. I made careful adjustments to the operation of the meridians without any carelessness. Everything was done to conform to the operation of heaven and earth...
However, Master, the changes in the exercises cannot cure your symptoms immediately.
Did you see that big wooden barrel?
Next, you have to take a medicinal bath in it.
After the medicinal bath, you will understand how miraculous my changes are.
Moreover, when you are taking the medicinal bath, I will also massage various acupuncture points on your body.
This massage is not ordinary. It requires the use of the true energy in my body to operate, and its purpose is to help you clear the meridians.
This process may be painful, but after you get through it, you will experience the comfort and pleasure after your meridians are unblocked.
How about it, Master, can you accept this kind of treatment?"
