The day after Zheng Qiu and Master Mingzong left the village, strange things happened in the village. One by one, the villagers fell down, closed their eyes and fell asleep. After sleeping for a whole day, these villagers woke up one after another.

However, the villagers seemed to have forgotten what happened in the past half month. They only knew that there was a new patient in the village, who was picked up by the hunters from the mountains.

Ten days later, under the stone wall of Cangqiu in the Roushui Swamp, a huge boulder was shaking slightly, and gravel and thatch kept rolling down from the side of the boulder. After a while, the boulder moved a gap, and the swamp river suddenly rushed along the gap. enter.

Something struggled to crawl out of the gap. The thing lay in the swamp, covered in mud. After resting for a while, it twisted its limbs as thin as bamboo poles in its weird way and climbed up the hillside of Cangqiu.

Returning to Fangcao Peak of Qianyun Sect, Zheng Qiu ran to Fangcao Pavilion to see his grandfather and Yunyou, while Master Mingzong locked himself in Fangcao Tower. For five days in a row, Master Mingzong did not give Zheng Qiu anything. During class, Zheng Qiu had no choice but to wander around Fangcao Peak, practicing finger folding with chopsticks.

On the sixth day, the master found Zheng Qiu and asked him to take classes on the 44th floor of Fangcao Building.

Sitting at the table with his chin propped up, Zheng Qiu waited for the master to start teaching. However, the master did not teach, but just threw him a booklet. It was said to be a booklet, but it was actually a large stack of white paper, but it was tied in the upper left corner of the paper. A hole was made and tied together hastily with rope.

Zheng Qiu looked through the booklet and found that the words in it were scrawled and altered, as if they were typed drafts.

Zheng Qiu looked over it over and over, but he couldn't understand it, so he had to ask his master: "Master, what is this written about? It's a bit like a Kung Fu method, but not like it. I don't understand it."

"Ahem." Master Mingzong cleared his throat and replied, "We need to start with the wood spirit in you. You will understand after I finish talking."

"What is a wood spirit?"

"Apprentice, do you still remember the hundreds of chrysanthemums and herbs I asked you to plant?"

"Remember."

"It starts from here..."

Master Ming Zong talked from the chrysanthemum herb to the stone tablet of Wentian Pavilion, and then from the stone tablet of Wentian Pavilion to the cave in Fushui Swamp, and then from the soul-finding roulette in the cave to Zhenjiu.

As he finished speaking, Zheng Qiu was stunned for a moment.

He touched his belly, lowered his head and looked at it, feeling unbelievable: "Master, you mean, there is something called a wood spirit in my body?"

"Yes, to be precise, it is a force, not a thing."

Master Mingzong pointed to the booklet in Zheng Qiu's hand and continued: "Based on what I checked last time, the wood spirit in you should have been awakened. The first thing written here is the improved version of "Pneumatic Man" Please try practicing the cultivation method again."

Under the guidance of his master, Zheng Qiu followed the steps in the booklet and started his first practice.

If you want to practice cultivation, you must first have a good foundation and bones, because entering the realm of pneumatic body is inseparable from a good foundation and bones.

The so-called Qi Fei is actually the first trace of Qi strength developed in the meridians. This first trace of Qi strength determines the type of exercises suitable for the practitioner and also determines the direction of future practice.

To cultivate the first trace of energy in the empty meridians, this is a process from scratch, and the difficulties are huge. Countless wise men and women in Yunxiu Continent, after thousands of years of research, have figured out how to enter the pneumatic tube. three key points.

Roots, external stimulation, and talent.

Good root bones represent good meridians and physical body, which are the seedbed for the birth of Qi. External stimulation refers to the methods of cultivation and the medicines taken.

As for the third talent, it is entirely a matter of luck. There are always people who do nothing and inexplicably enter the pneumatic tire after sleeping. Therefore, Yunxiu starts from the first two key points to become a pneumatic tire.

Nowadays, each major sect has its own unique formula to improve the root and bones, and there are also special external stimulation methods, such as taking powerful pills to stimulate the process, meditating to regulate breathing guidance, exercising the body to stimulate fatigue, and other various methods.

The external stimulation method of Qianyun Sect is to meditate and regulate breathing.

However, Master Ming Zong believes that the expression of the wood spirit in the meridians is very similar to that of Qi Jin, so the meridians and the physical body cannot be used as a seedbed for cultivating Qi Jin to cultivate new Qi Jin. Instead, the Wood Spirit should be regarded as something that has already been cultivated. Qi Jin, cultivate and strengthen it.

Therefore, the first step Master Ming Zong asked Zheng Qiu to do was to sit quietly with his eyes closed and find out the wood spirit in his body.

"A meditative mind has no self, and does not know the world... A meditative mind has no self, and does not know the world..." Zheng Qiu recited the words written in the booklet to help himself enter a state of introspection.

Entering the state of introspection requires the cultivator to completely calm down and block the perception of the outside world. Only in this state can the cultivator see the situation inside the body. Of course, what you see here is not really seeing with your eyes, but the cultivator Feel it through your body and imagine it in your mind.

After an hour and a half of meditation, Zheng Qiu finally entered a state of introspection. He saw the meridians in his body for the first time.

They were criss-crossing pipes, leading to all parts of the body. The color of the pipes could not be seen clearly and they were very blurry, but they existed clearly in Zheng Qiu's feeling.

He remembered what his master said to find the "wood spirit", so he moved his sight and searched along the meridians inch by inch. When he found the chest, he saw a wisp of light green mist, floating in a spiral shape inside the meridians. .

Zheng Qiu didn't know why it was light green. When he looked inside his body, he could only see a blurry outline of gray and black. But the mist gave him a clear feeling, an instinctive feeling, that it should be light green.

Zheng Qiu was not sure whether this wisp of mist was the "wood spirit" mentioned by the master. He searched for other meridians again, but found nothing. The meridians were empty, only there was mist in the chest. Then this wisp of mist should be the master. It's called "wood spirit".

Now that the "wood spirit" has been found, the next step is to capture it.

Zheng Qiu's eyes slowly moved closer to the mist. Just when he felt that he was about to touch it, the mist seemed to be disturbed. It twisted left and right, stretched from a spiral to straight, and floated away from its original position along the meridians. Fly far away.

Zheng Qiu hurriedly followed, trying hard to move his eyes to prevent the fog from escaping. But the fog flew away very quickly, and the intricate meridians seemed to be his home. He was familiar with the road everywhere, and after turning more than a dozen turns in a row, the fog completely disappeared. In Zheng Qiu's sight.

Outside, Master Ming Zong carefully observed his apprentice's physical condition. After Zheng Qiu entered a state of introspection, about three hours later, his body suddenly started to shake.

The shaking only lasted for a short time and then stopped, and then Zheng Qiu fell out of the state of introspection.
