Chapter 10: The Secret of Yin and Yang Five Elements
As he watched Tang Shuang's sedan chair leave, Ye Han couldn't help but smile slightly as he thought about becoming friends with such a beautiful senior. Seeing that the number of customers coming to eat wontons was not as many as before, and his parents could handle it on their own, he didn't go over to help again. He sat down on the stool, closed his eyes lightly, and began to rest and calm his mind.
During the time Ye Han was away, Ye Kui and Yang Xiu Ying were busy, even when Tang Shuang accompanied Ye Han back, the couple didn't have time to greet them. They only saw that their second son was very close to a pretty girl, they exchanged a few words, then the girl left.
After finally finding some free time, Yang Xiuying walked to her son's side and saw that Erzi was sitting on the stool with his eyes closed, looking very calm. She asked in surprise: "Ye Han, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing his mother's voice, Ye Han opened his eyes and smiled: "Nothing, just feeling a bit tired."
Yang Xiuying said with concern: "You, you didn't do anything before, today helping me and your dad move things, and running here to help, aren't you tired? From now on, just stay at home and study well, it's enough for me and your dad to be busy here!"
He glanced in the direction where Tang Shuang's sedan chair had disappeared, and then asked: "Ye Han, was the girl who just spoke to you the one who eats wontons with us? Do you know her?"
"Mom, I just met her a moment ago. It turns out we're from the same school and she's my senior. Hehe, how is it? Isn't she pretty?"
Yang Xiuying sighed: "Too beautiful, I've never seen such a beautiful and elegant girl."
"Then I'll marry her and bring her back for you as a daughter-in-law, how's that?"
"Who?" Yang Xiuying was taken aback, and with a tap on his forehead, she said irritably: "A girl like her is obviously from a wealthy and influential family. Do you think she'd look at someone like you? You're just dreaming!"
Ye Han pouted and muttered, "Mom, don't look down on your own son, okay? Just you wait, one of these days I'll bring her home to show you!"
Yang Xiuying smiled and said: "Okay, mom is waiting."
She thought that the second son was just bragging and didn't take his words to heart. After chatting with her mother for a few more sentences, Yang Xiuying went back to work.
Business was good tonight, and the dumplings sold quickly. By around 10 o'clock in the evening, a family of three had already packed up their stall and headed home together.
When he returned home, Ye Shan and Ye Ting were still watching TV in the living room. Ye Han was exhausted and chatted with them for a few sentences before going to wash up and rest.
This was the first night he came to this world, Ye Han lay alone on his bed in the room, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a while. He listened carefully until his parents, brother, and sister all fell asleep, then sat cross-legged on the bed and started practicing "Yin Yang Wu Xing Jue" again.
This body is really too weak, and I must seize the time to cultivate. Later on, I still plan to rely on my medical skills to make money. Without a good body as the foundation and without strong spiritual energy as support, wanting to make a lot of money can only be empty talk.
The so-called "Yin Yang Wu Xing Jue" is the highest and most supreme cultivation treasure of Ye Han's former master, the "Xian Yi Men".
The universe and all things are closely related to the breath of yin and yang, and the human body is no exception. Inside the human body, there are five lines of yin and yang, namely the metal line, wood line, water line, fire line, earth line, yin line, and yang line. The purpose of practicing "Yin Yang Wu Xing Jue" is to guide the spiritual energy of yin and yang from heaven and earth into the body, to open up the five lines of yin and yang inside the human body, so that the seven different spiritual energies between the seven meridians can communicate with each other, circulate endlessly, and flow continuously. Ultimately, the practitioner will reach the state of "As long as the world exists, I exist; when the world perishes, I perish" - a realm of immortality.
The yin and yang five elements seven meridians, Ye Han's past life had all been opened up, as long as the tribulation was successful, he could break through the void and ascend to immortality. Unfortunately, the last moment of failure left only a mortal body occupied by his soul, with all seven meridians of yin and yang five elements closed off. To regain his former glory, he had to start from scratch and cultivate again using the "Yin Yang Five Elements Formula" to introduce the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and reopen the seven meridians one by one.
What disappointed Ye Han was that on this so-called "earth", the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was many times thinner than in his previous life's cultivation world, so wanting to open up the seven meridians of yin-yang and five elements would likely be many times more difficult than in his previous life.
Among the five elements, wood represents vitality and energy, so the spirit of wood has a healing effect on the human body. For Ye Han, who entered the medical profession through Taoism, fire is also an indispensable part of refining elixirs in the five elements. Therefore, if he wants to use his medical skills to blend into the world, what he needs to cultivate first are the wood and fire meridians among the five-element meridians.
Ye Han is now physically weak, but once the spiritual energy exists in his body, his physique will change accordingly. Not only can medical skills be improved, but self-defense capabilities will also be greatly enhanced.
Gold, wood, water, fire and earth are the five elements that make up the necessary elements of heaven and earth, so between heaven and earth, the five elements are everywhere, and the five elements are also the five elements of spirit.
Ye Han sat cross-legged on the bed, and the "Yin Yang Wu Xing Jue" began to circulate. After a moment, his entire being entered a profound and ethereal realm, as if he had already merged with the heavens, earth, and all living things.
"It won't do, the wood spiritual energy and fire spiritual energy here are both too weak. To quickly open up the wood meridian and fire meridian, I must find a suitable place to cultivate!" Feeling the faint fluctuations of the wood element and fire element in the surrounding air, Ye Han felt very helpless.
After a while, as the time approached midnight, Ye Han listened carefully and heard even and steady breathing sounds coming from the other rooms. It seemed that everyone in the house had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Ye Han put on his clothes, got out of bed, took the key to the big gate, tiptoed out of the yard, locked the yard gate, and ran along the street towards "Jinghu Square".
Ye Han still remembered that in the evening, when selling wontons at "Jinghu Square", there was a large dense forest on the northwest side of the square. In addition, the square was also filled with other flowers and grasses. It can be imagined that the wood element there must be much denser than at home, and cultivating there would have twice the effect with half the effort.
When he arrived at "Jinghu Square", the vast square was empty, with no one in sight. Only the large lamp in the center of the square remained bright. Ye Han quickly walked into the woods on the northwest side of the square, chose a clean spot to sit down cross-legged.
"The Yin and Yang Five Elements Key" started to rotate again, and after a moment, Ye Han sensed the wave of wood elements in the surrounding air, which was indeed several times thicker than when he was at home.
In meditation, it seems that one can "see" the countless pores on the skin surface all open, and with the rotation of the "Yin Yang Wu Xing Jue", the wood element surrounding the body rushes into the body through those countless pores, and finally gathers in the Dan Tian to form a gas group that releases weak cyan light and is only as big as a grain of rice.
