Chapter 239 Remedy
In modern time and space, the reason why Tai Chi, such an internal martial arts, is popular all over the country and even the world is naturally unique. If you don’t talk about it in practice, in addition to being able to maintain health and wellness, it is probably because the fighting is beautiful enough.
For Li Shimin, the Tai Chi set performed by Li Anran, dressed in Taoism, even if it was just a simple move, exuded the aura of immortality. It was just a little convinced when he looked at it at first.
After Li Anran's seemingly slow movements were like flowing water, and after he finished a set of Tai Chi with both hardness and softness, Li Shimin, who was anxious to be stronger in his body, did not care that the outside world was still relatively warm, and quickly learned it.
One taught seriously and the other learned carefully. Before he knew it, more than half an hour passed. Li Anran had to admit that the ancients were indeed not stupider than modern people. It was just that Li Shimin actually beat this set of Tai Chi in a very good manner.
You should know that the simplified Tai Chi set taught by Li Anran is not a simplified Tai Chi designed specifically for the old man and grandma. Although there are only thirteen main movements, there are also many auxiliary movements. Although the movements are still awkward and some of them are not enough to beat them, at least the entire set of boxing styles has been firmly remembered by Li Shimin.
I don’t know if it’s a psychological factor, or if it’s good physical conditioning some time ago, or if this set of Tai Chi is really useful. Li Shimin, who suffers from wind, has been learning boxing for so long, but he doesn’t feel the symptoms of palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches and other symptoms that are often caused by the heat of the past.
When facing Li Shimin's problem, Li Anran did not take the credit for Tai Chi, but did not completely deny it. He just said that this boxing has an extraordinary origin, but everything gained is an opportunity, so you don't have to take it too seriously.
Although I had just "presented facts and reasoned" before, the so-called elixir was actually chronic (toxic) (medicine), but Li Shimin still believed in this statement. If I hadn't considered that there was something to deal with in the palace, I wouldn't have planned to keep it for one night.
Even so, before Li Shimin boarded the electric tour bus, he still told Li Anran to ask him to go to the palace the next day, to continue teaching Tai Chi, or to install the summer heat sacred objects and air conditioners.
After finally sending these "uninvited guests" away, Li Anran returned to the inner hall and changed into comfortable casual clothes. He took Xiangyun together and hid the two white tigers and snow leopards in the inner courtyard. He had never taken them to the outside to feed.
Just as the two of them were talking and laughing, they were about to take a shower with the two little guys, but they heard the reports from the servants that Yuan Tiangang, who had left before, came to visit again with his disciple Li Chunfeng.
"I'll go!" Li Anran, who was about to take the opportunity to discuss the harmony of yin and yang with Xiangyun, looked at the time and said angrily: "What are you doing? I've been making trouble for a day and still let people ease for a while? Could it be that this is a crime to be brought up and asked for a crime."
"Young Master, Master Yuan and Master Li are both experts. There must be important things at night. You should do the important things first." Xiangyun, who was holding his little white tiger, didn't know what his young master had to do. He immediately put on a kiss and said.
"Okay! I'll go and see what they want to do first, and then go back and discuss with Yun'er the Taoist principles of the harmony of yin and yang." Li Anran took the other party into his arms, regardless of the white tiger and snow leopard who were thrusting away because of being squeezed, first gave a French wet kiss, then laughed and turned to the front hall.
There is actually no need to guess what Li Anran knows what happened when he comes to Master Tiangang. He has verified that the elixir is (poison) and (pharmaceutical) before. Although the end of the elixir outside the Taoist sect is very miserable, to put it bluntly, it can be considered a self-destruction.
God knows how many people have killed so-called spiritual pills made of ores, heavy metals and even poisons over the years. In Li Anran's opinion, it is a benefit but no harm to be eliminated as soon as possible, so there will naturally be no psychological burden.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, Fellow Daoist Li, I'm polite, please sit down." Li Anran, who came to the front hall, pressed his dissatisfaction and bowed his head, and said.
"I have seen a real person." Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng returned with respect.
After the servants served tea for themselves, they knew that these two Li Anran, who had no trouble, went to the Three Treasure Hall, directly sent all the servants away, and then said, "I wonder what the two fellow Taoists came at night?"
"Please forgive me, the reason why my master and disciple came to the door at this time was really helpless." Yuan Tiangang said, and said that after verifying that the elixirs would only kill people and would not cure people in the afternoon, and after the priest issued an edict, the imperial palace and the folk also picked up important changes.
When I heard that even the Taoist temple where Yuan Tiangang was located had gone through several Taoist children because of this incident, especially the already prosperous incense, it suddenly declined a lot, and knew that this matter could be said to be caused by Li Anran. Although he did not have any psychological burden, he was somewhat dissatisfied.
"It's so true that since the first year of Kaihuang of Emperor Wen of Sui, the rise of Buddhism has caused the Taoist sect to suffer a lot in these few decades. This time, the incident has even worsened the injury."
"I came here this time and really wanted to ask the real person why this sect lineage ended up like this? Since the upper realm really exists, why do you ignore the descendants of the lower realm?" Yuan Tiangang, with a sad face, looked directly at someone and asked.
"The rise of Buddhism?" Li Anran, who was originally guessing why the other party came to the door, looked at the expression on Master Yuan's face and couldn't help but think in his heart: "Can you want to invite me out of the mountain and revitalize the influence of the Taoist sect in the Tang Dynasty?"
"That's right, Buddhism, the external religion, soon began to spread through its own teachings after being introduced to the Central Plains. At that time, my Taoist lineage did not take Buddhism seriously. Now, it is..." Yuan Tiangang said seriously.
"The world is like chess, the world is unpredictable, laughter... Why should you mind with fellow Taoists?" Li Anran, who almost told the poem of a big man in the Pili puppet show, stopped his mouth in time and said.
Through this period of investigation of the immortal in the upper world in front of him, Yuan Tiangang did not naively think that if he just said a few words, the other party would stand up without hesitation. Therefore, it was not surprising to face such a reaction.
"The real person is not my concern. I just watched Buddhism become more and more prosperous, but the Taoist sect is getting worse and worse. I really can't let go." Yuan Tiangang, who was sitting on the chair of the Grand Master, looked straight at the other party.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, I understand your mood as well as the Taoist sect." Seeing that the words were going in the direction I had previously guessed, Li Anran, who did not want to intervene in this religious dispute, quickly said: "But this is God's will, what can we do?"
"God's will? I wonder if the real person can explain it?" Yuan Tiangang, who had never expected that the decline of the Taoist sect would be the will of heaven. After being stunned, his eyes were full of disbelief in his eyes with his apprentice Li Chunfeng.
Although Li Anran did not come from history or religion, he had heard of some knowledge about the dispute over Buddhism and Taoism. Especially when he was a Taoist lineage, he talked about several Taoist disasters in history while chatting.
Not to mention it, just take the Tang Dynasty as an example. Although the two generations of emperors, Li Yuan and Li Shimin, have always regarded Taoism as the most respected. Otherwise, there would be no adverse social atmosphere of taking elixirs to seek immortality and cure diseases.
However, after Wu Zetian, the first female emperor in Chinese history, ascended the throne, he changed the way of the Li family in the previous dynasty, and instead promoted Buddhism and destroyed Taoism. It is said that this female emperor once colluded with Buddhists to forge Buddhist scriptures, saying that the Buddhist scriptures had long been told that the heroine would come to the court to embellish her act of usurping the throne.
Considering that no matter how much I said this, I really couldn't get rid of it, and my identity as a Taoist lineage was actually not considered a fabrication. After all, my grandfather Li Guizhen passed on all the mantle of the Chunyang lineage to him.
