Chapter 191 Secrets of the Dark Night Meditation Room
According to medical science, people with "perfect yang" nature have many differences. For example, after such people die, it is very easy to fake the corpse. In addition, because the yang energy is too strong, it causes a serious imbalance of yin and yang in the body. .If the adjustment is not done properly, it will cause serious premature aging. This is also the reason why the eminent monk became extremely old in his thirties and forties.
Huizhong also suspected that the old host's constitution was most likely to be extremely yin. Because in an area, if there is a person with a "very yang" personality, then there must be a person with a "very yin" personality. Near him, medical books said that this is the basic law of creation of heaven and earth. Yin and Yang complement each other. They repel each other, are compatible with each other, and generate each other.
Why did Hui Zhong guess that the old host's constitution was "extremely yin"? Just because... the eminent monk always carried a piece of the old host's corpse with him.
The reason why he did this was to use the extreme yin energy of the corpse flesh to slightly balance his yang energy. Without this piece of corpse flesh, the eminent monk would have suffered from premature aging.
But what moved Huizhong the most was what the official mentioned, the corpse worms on the eminent monk. With his profound medical knowledge, although he didn't quite understand why the eminent monk specifically asked to keep this kind of worm before he passed away. But he He felt keenly that the bug was a priceless treasure in terms of medical value. Therefore, he spared no effort and traveled thousands of miles to Tibet to look for this magical bug.
Fortunately, the time when the eminent monk passed away was not too long, so Hui Zhong found the temple without much effort. And the process of asking for the corpse insect went very smoothly. The monk in the temple gave it to him readily. A few pieces. It's like finding a treasure in wisdom. Carefully put them in the earthen jar. Then they come back.
It was precisely because of these corpse worms that Huizhong had a completely different life. Therefore, Huizhong repeatedly emphasized that these corpse worms were the most direct resource for his fortune. Therefore, he regarded them as his lifeblood.
The Feng Shui master listened with great concentration. He originally wanted to see what these magical bugs looked like, but when he heard Huizhong's last few words, he immediately realized something and stopped saying anything.
After that conversation, for some unknown reason, the Feng Shui master became particularly fascinated by that kind of corpse worm, because this kind of corpse worm meant more to him.
After being introduced by the second brother of the Feng Shui master, the famous doctor Tang Chizhou came to this mountain to explore with the professor who came from the United States. Therefore, since returning to Shanghai, Tang Chizhou also gradually became familiar with the Feng Shui master. Tang Chizhou once carefully After diagnosing the pulse of a Feng Shui master, Tang Chizhou was very surprised to find that the pulse of the Feng Shui master was very different from that of ordinary people. The cold air was extremely strong. If ordinary people had this kind of pulse, they would have been lying in bed dying. But Feng Shui But the master is still full of energy. It’s really strange.
Tang Chizhou checked a lot of medical books and asked his grandfather for advice. Only then did he know that the Feng Shui master's constitution was an extremely yin-cold constitution. This kind of constitution needs to be reconciled with yang energy when young. After middle-aged and old age, it is the most It is best to use the yin energy of mountains and rivers to protect you. Only then can you live a long life. Otherwise, life will be difficult until 49 years old.
As soon as he heard that yang energy was needed to reconcile, the Feng Shui master suddenly thought of the corpse worms Hui Zhong mentioned. Aren't those corpse worms miraculous in treating yin and cold energy? He quickly relayed what Hui Zhong told him in detail. Tang Chizhou.
After hearing this, Tang Chizhou couldn't help but his eyes lit up. For a medical student, discovering a secret recipe is one of the biggest surprises in life.
Both of them were still young at the time, in their early thirties, so they just did what they said. Not long after, they set off from Shanghai together and headed straight for Tibet. They made up their mind that no matter how many hardships they went through, they would never do it. In order to find the corpse bug on the eminent monk, transportation was extremely underdeveloped at that time. They first went through a lot of hardships to enter Sichuan, and then entered Tibet.
But the difficulties that followed were even more difficult than they imagined... because after all, fifty or sixty years had passed. Although the original temple was still there, when they asked about the corpse insects again, the few monks they asked shook their heads. He said that he had never heard of such a thing. The Feng Shui master and Tang Chizhou were very disappointed and a little emotional. They felt that the world has changed and no matter how vigorous it was, it would eventually become dull and silent.
After four or five days of repeated exploration and searching, they still found nothing. The two of them were very disappointed. They felt that the trip was in vain, so they planned to stop for a day or two to recuperate and rest, and then headed back home.
Until then, the two of them felt that this trip was too hasty and too childish. They also did not think that the eminent monk had been dead for fifty or sixty years. During these fifty or sixty years, many things had changed and people had changed. And not all of them had been preserved. It is an ordinary item, but a living insect. This kind of insect is probably extinct long ago due to various reasons.
The reason why Huizhong was able to preserve and reproduce bugs was because they were his cornucopia and money tree. He valued bugs more than anything else. It was precisely because of this high level of careful care that the bugs were protected. .And Huizhong also said that because of many unexpected reasons, such as a fire, another flood, and several unpredictable natural and man-made disasters, the can of worms almost died out. He was the one who took the risk. It was only through fate that I saved that jar of worms.
Therefore, it is indeed not easy for insects to be successfully preserved. As time goes by, over the long years of fifty or sixty years, I am afraid that most of the disciples who often listen to eminent monks' sermons have passed away. Because at that time, on this plateau The average life span of a human being is only over forty years.
After carefully thinking about these factors, the two of them felt that this failure seemed reasonable.
Many things in the world are sometimes so coincidental that it is unbelievable. Just the night before they were about to leave, things took a turn for the better.
It was already past 10 o'clock at night. The temperature difference between day and night on the plateau is really big. So even though it was summer, a strong wind suddenly blew at night. It was very cold. The two of them stayed temporarily in a room in the temple. .I just came from the metropolis of Shanghai to this plateau area with extremely harsh environment. I am really not used to it.
They used various things in the house to seal up all the gaps they could. But they still felt the cool breeze in the house and it was difficult to sleep. Because the quilts in the temple were all made of wool, which was fishy and smelly, so the two of them felt that It's no use being afraid of being dirty. For the past few nights, I've put on my own thick clothes and slept in bed. It was very windy today, so even if I put on the thickest clothes, I'm afraid it would be difficult to sleep. The two of them simply didn't sleep. They sat on the table. Lay out the chessboard and start playing chess.
Because both of them are chess fans, playing chess is of course the best way for them to spend their time. Until early in the morning, in the increasingly cold room, the two of them did not feel sleepy at all. The more they played, the more devoted they became.
At this moment, there was suddenly a strange sound coming from outside the window. The sound was very much like a person howling. The sound was extremely eerie and terrifying. Sometimes it screamed like a beast, and sometimes it moaned like it was being tortured. It was so disturbing to hear. The hair on their eyes stood up. The two people suddenly became alert. When they came, they each brought a revolver. At this time, the two people quickly took out the pistol from the bag, loaded it with bullets, turned on the safety, and took it. Electricity. Follow the sound and find it slowly.
The wind outside was still very strong, which caused the sound to turn slightly when it drifted over. The two stopped and stood in the darkness. After careful identification, they realized that the sound was coming from a room next to it.
That room was relatively bright. They tiptoed under the window, poked holes in the window paper with their fingers, and squinted their eyes to look inside.
Before they could see clearly what was going on in the room, they smelled a foul smell inside. The two quickly covered their noses and looked intently.
This room is very dirty and messy. The smell of urine, corpses, sweat, feet, butter, kerosene, etc. are all mixed together. Even in such a cold night, the smell is very bad. However, there were large butter lamps and kerosene lamps lit inside, so it was very bright. When the two looked carefully, they found that there were many lamps in the room. Oh, it turned out that this seemed to be a warehouse where the lamps used for night lighting in the temple were stored. .No wonder it is lit like this. No wonder it is so bright.
When they looked at the ground, they saw an old and dirty monk, half lying and half sitting on the ground. That terrible sound was made by this old monk. His beard was stuck together and his lower body was half naked. One leg was stretched out straight. When the two of them took a closer look at the old monk's legs, they were both shocked:
The meat on his calf seemed to be very rotten, and the white bones were loomingly exposed. What was even more frightening was that, through the bright light, the Feng Shui master and Tang Chizhou discovered that there was something crawling on the old monk's carrion. There were clumps of bugs. It was disgusting and terrifying to the extreme.
These bugs seemed to be eating the carrion on the old monk's legs. This caused the old monk extreme pain. But the strange thing was that he did not try to remove the bugs. Instead, he allowed them to eat the carrion on his legs. Because the purpose of the two people's trip was to find corpse bugs, when they saw these bugs, they immediately thought of corpse bugs. Could this extremely weird scene be related to corpse bugs?
The two looked at each other and then nodded understandingly. They immediately walked around to the door of the house and gently pushed the door open. What they didn't expect was that the door was not inserted. It was left ajar so lightly. With a slight push, it squeaked open. Both the Feng Shui master and Tang Chizhou felt that the old monk would be shocked when he saw the two of them. Unexpectedly, the old monk just looked at them coldly, and then remained unchanged. As if there was no one around, he started to cry out in pain.
The two walked forward directly. Then they endured the unpleasant stench and squatted next to the old monk. They turned on the flashlight and carefully observed the insects in the rotten flesh on his legs.
