Chapter 190 189 Riding a Bull to Enlighten the Way In the wind and snow, the mountains are high and the birds are all the peaks!
The golden sunshine filled the mountains and rivers. Chen Jue rode a yak all the way west. The wind and snow gradually began to subside, and everything he could see was a mixture of grey, white and blue.
Gray is the original color of the Qilian Mountains, white is the ice and snow cover, and higher up is the clear blue sky with a few clouds and mist floating in the mountains.
The altitude near here has climbed to more than 4,000 meters. The yak, carrying Chen Jue weighing almost 200 kilograms, began to pant after walking dozens of miles on the mountain road, and white smoke kept coming from its mouth and nose.
exhale.
Chen Jue looked at the continuous snow-white ridges around him, and then at the undulating back of the wild yak. He found that the earth and the creatures had very similar shapes in some aspects.
"Hulking, huffing" Chen Jue could hear that the yak's breathing began to increase, and the oxygen in the air began to become thinner. Even a strong animal like a wild yak had to bow its head and surrender in front of nature.
After patting the yak's neck to signal it to stop, Chen Jue got off the yak's back, dug up the snowdrift, pulled out some grass roots, and fed them to the stupid ox.
"Moo!" the yak growled, obviously liking Chen Jue, its temporary owner who knew how to understand the ox's life. He knelt down on the ground and chewed grass roots while staring at Chen Jue.
Chen Jue could see the docility, wildness, awe and intimacy in it through its dark and innocent eyes.
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. If people look at each other for a long time, they will detect the other person's emotions from the other person's eyes, which will affect their own mood, and the tear glands will secrete tears uncontrollably.
The same is true when looking at a yak. Because Chen Jue has mastered three eye skills, his visual ability is extraordinary and he can see many things in the yak's eyes that ordinary people cannot see.
As the saying goes, all things have spirits, and plants and trees also have hearts.
This is a wild animal looking at the world through its eyes. It also has its own emotions and thoughts, but it is not as complex as humans. Most of them are based on survival instincts.
In addition, Chen Jue also saw himself reflected in the eyes of the yak. The eyes were like a mirror, reflecting his own body. Chen Jue found that although he was real in the eyes of the yak, he seemed to be integrated with the heaven and the earth, and he became more and more mysterious.
The sense of detachment and integration into nature.
"You are a docile and kind fool!" Chen Jue reached out and touched the yak's head, smiled slightly, and rested against it for a moment.
…
Leaning on the yak, Chen Jue felt the astonishing heat emitted from its body, which was the heat produced after weight-bearing exercise.
Listening to its breathing and the thunderous moo, Chen Jue suddenly discovered that the yak's body was no weaker than the tiger he had encountered in the old forest of Gongshan before.
It is dull and powerful, and it is estimated that the force it can explode is definitely over a thousand kilograms.
"The sound of tiger and leopard thunder can refine the internal organs and transform the marrow. I didn't expect that the sound of oxen penetrating the body would also have similar effects."
"All creatures in nature are indeed teachers of human beings." Chen Zhizhong sighed with emotion, and recalled that he had seen the ox tongue palm in Baguazhang when he was practicing martial arts with brothers Li Xiang and Li Wei. It was born out of the artistic conception of cows eating thatch.
Thatch is extremely sharp, and when I was playing in the fields when I was a child, my skin was often cut. But when it fell into the mouth of a cow, it was so delicious that the cow's tongue was so sharp that it would end up in its belly no matter how sharp the thatch was.
The Ox Tongue Palm in Baguazhang is a basic skill of Baguazhang, which is used to roll a white blade with bare hands. When practiced to an advanced level, it can even break a pure steel sword into several pieces with one palm, which shows its power.
…
After sitting and resting for two hours, one person and one ox embarked on the journey again, stopping and walking along the long snow line on the roofs of mountains and rivers, walking at sunrise and resting at sunset.
After spending several days together, Chen Jue established a very deep friendship with this wild yak.
Sometimes when he encounters a ridge that he can't climb, Chen Jue will directly pick him up and walk a few hundred meters.
As he went deeper into the Qilian Mountains, Chen Jue's heart began to become more and more peaceful. There was no one else to disturb him, only the ice and snow nature and the mute yaks around him.
The absence of human fireworks for these few days also made Chen Jue experience the feeling of loneliness called "thousands of mountains and birds have disappeared, and thousands of people have disappeared".
The road travels alone, starting from the first step, walking on the snow, lying in the snow, and leaving long footprints in the long Qilian Mountains, accompanied by each other.
By the time we reached the Daxue Mountain, the main peak of the Qilian Mountains, five full days had passed, and the food in Chen Jue's backpack was almost gone.
Looking up at the snow-capped mountains in front of him that plunged directly into the sea of clouds, Chen Deji felt an indescribable emotion.
As for the wild yak next to him, it bit a corner of Chen Jue's cassock, obviously not wanting to move forward any further.
The Snowy Mountains are extremely steep, and some cliffs are as high as ladders and covered with ice and snow. Even these darlings of nature cannot climb up. Only birds with wings have a chance to fly over them.
In the eyes of herdsmen and yaks, the Snowy Mountains are the incarnation of gods, unattainable and majestic and revered.
"Niu'er, are you scared?" Chen Jue read a bit of fear and respect in the other person's eyes. He smiled slightly and reached out to touch its head to comfort it.
Seeing that it was reluctant to move, obviously out of instinctive awe of the snow-capped mountains, Chen Jue had no choice but to let it lie down at the foot of the mountain and wait for him.
After taking off his backpack and tying it with cow hair, he put it on the cow's back. Chen Jue stretched his whole body, and his muscles and bones roared like thunder. He took off his cassock, revealing the thin coat underneath.
With one leap, the whole person was like a falcon flying in the white snow, flying quickly along the steep ridge towards the top of the mountain.
With the blessing of [Body as Light as a Swallow] and [Wearing Flowers and Playing Butterflies], as well as powerful physical attributes, Chen Jue jumped three or four meters away in one step, and the ice and snow under his feet made a crunching sound.
When encountering a steep rock wall, Chen Jue would stretch out his fingers, leaving rows of finger holes on the rock wall through the rotten ground. With the help of force, Chen Jue would continue to climb up. His movements were as agile as those who live in snowfields and ice all year round.
Even the wild snow-capped mountain macaques cannot compare.
The yak lying at the foot of the mountain raised its head and stared at Chen Jue as he climbed higher and higher until the figure disappeared into the clouds and mist. Then he lowered his head and lay down obediently in the snow.
.
The heavy snow gradually covered its gray-black fur with a layer of snow-white, while Chen Jue quickly climbed along the steep rocks of the Snow Mountain.
Ordinary people have to use climbing tools, ropes, oxygen bottles and other equipment, and it takes a whole day to climb the snowy mountain, but Chen Jue reached the top in less than 20 minutes.
The higher he got, the more Chen Jue could feel the temperature around him dropping sharply. Although it was not as cold as the Antarctic, the biting cold wind still made him feel a little uncomfortable despite wearing a thin coat.
The higher he climbed, the more Chen Jue could feel the moisture in the air getting heavier. The clouds in front of his eyes seemed to be so thick that they couldn't be dissolved. There were water droplets and frost on his clothes, hair, eyelashes, and ears.
There was only the howling cold wind, slapping his cheeks.
Being in such an environment is like walking on a spiritual path with no end in sight.
Facing the unbreakable cloud and mist in front of me, there is confusion, fear, lack of direction, obsession that makes people flinch, and all kinds of complicated thoughts coming one after another.
This is the instinct of human beings when facing unknown environments, and it is also Chen Jue’s journey along the way.
After plucking up the courage to climb over the last rock wall with a straight line of nearly 90 degrees and about 20 meters high and covered with solid ice, Chen Jue used his finger holes to exert force and jumped from the top of his head to the rock wall that was about to condense into rain.
After rushing out of the clouds and mist, and landing steadily on the narrow peak of the Snow Mountain, Chen Jue felt his eyes suddenly brighten!
Below your feet is an endless sea of snow-white clouds, billowing and boundless.
In the east is a ray of rising sun that has just emerged, as red as a plate. The golden sunshine fills the clouds, giving off bursts of purple halo.
To the west, there is a full moon. The sun and moon complement each other, making Chen Jue standing on the top of the mountain shine like a saint between heaven and earth.
Facing this majestic scene above the clouds of the snow-capped mountains, Chen Jue was like ordinary people climbing to the top of the mountain. He couldn't help but roar, and all the thoughts in his heart were vented in this challenge to the limits of nature.
At this moment, Chen Jue felt that he was the master of all living things in the world, and his heart surged with pride.
If we say that Chen Jue used the world of mortals to refine his heart, to look at others and reflect on himself, he realized from his long life that plainness is the "true" original intention.
So now he is using nature as a mirror, and in the gap between living things and nature, he is seeking to reach a higher state of his soul and will!
Looking at the sun and the moon on the sea of clouds reflecting each other, Chen Jue slowly closed his mouth, stopped roaring, and stared at the opposing shapes of the sun and the moon. At this moment, Chen Jue seemed to suddenly remember the phrase he had learned when he was a student.
Verse: "The bells of nature are beautiful, and the yin and yang cut off the dusk."
"The sun is yang and the moon is yin."
"This is a natural Tai Chi figure. It is indeed the most wonderful creation in the world." Chen Zhizhi sighed at the wisdom of the ancients. He moved his heart at will, spread his legs, raised his hands and mist, and the lazy Tai Chi frame was on this mountain.
Standing on top of the sea of clouds.
Slowly, each move of Tai Chi, which embodies the concept of the unity of man and nature, was spread out on the solitary snow-capped mountains like mercury leaking to the ground.
Accompanied by the waves of the sea of clouds, the reflection of the sun and the moon, and the still sound of the wind, Chen Jue gradually developed a sense of harmony between heaven and earth, in which heaven, earth, and people are mutually tolerant and independent, and all things coexist harmoniously.
When the surrounding sea of clouds was penetrated by the sun, revealing the endless Qilian Snow Mountains under the clouds, which looked like silver dragons entrenched, Chen's determination suddenly moved, and he felt that the obsession in his heart was as strong as this sea of clouds.
This moment faded away with the wind and disappeared into smoke.
After completing his exercises and standing quietly, overlooking the vast world, Chen Jue whispered to himself: "The mountains are high and the birds are as high as the peaks. My Dharma, my Tao, and my practice are all in this exploration of the heaven, earth, and universe."
In the truth.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jue heard a "ding" sound in his mind. The panel that had been updated for almost half a month finally started to move at this moment!
