Chapter 92: Enlightenment: Internal energy is like running water
The experience and wisdom of the predecessors are worth learning from and learning from each other's strengths. More importantly, "qi" was mentioned in it. Wang Anxin was shocked.
"Qi, is it possible that this senior has developed true qi?"
In addition to small paragraphs of annotations next to these maps, there are also some small words at the back of the book. These words are also some annotations, and they were left by more than one person.
This also reflects the extraordinary nature of this book from another aspect.
It was a thin book that he read carefully over and over again, firmly recording the contents in his mind.
[You have learned a lot from reading "Tai Chi Manual". Tai Chi experience 30.]
He put down the book, went to a corner and practiced Tai Chi in a small space, and realized the movement of force recorded in the map.
Over and over again, the areas that were originally unsmooth gradually became smoother.
[Tai Chi Experience 5.]
[Tai Chi Experience 3.]
…
The Taoist priest on the side was watching with a smile on his face.
"Is this layman the same one that several senior brothers mentioned in the past few days who is looking for people to compete with each other? Maybe he got some insights from reading that book and is practicing martial arts here."
He did not disturb him, and just watched quietly from the side. There were fellow disciples coming over. He also stopped them and told them to keep their voices down, for fear that they would affect Wang An.
Wang An practiced for a while, stopped to think about it, and then continued to practice. The strength in his body was like rivers running through his body.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was noon. The Taoist priests in the sutra storage building left one after another. Wang An was still reading that book.
The Taoist priest just waited aside and did not rush him. In this way, the time passed by noon and reached the afternoon.
"Let's pour it here today." Wang An closed the ancient book and put it back far away. Only then did he realize that the Taoist priest was still waiting aside. He looked at the sky outside and realized that it was already afternoon.
"I'm really sorry for the long delay."
"It's okay, it seems like the layman has gained something?" the Taoist priest said with a smile.
"The harvest has been great. It feels like there is no way out despite the mountains and rivers, and there is another village with bright flowers and dark trees." Wang An said truthfully.
"Congratulations, layman."
"That book is worth reading. If the Taoist priest practices Tai Chi, you might as well read more." Wang An thought for a while and then said to the Taoist priest.
The other party is waiting here. Not to mention wasting time, it can be regarded as protecting the Dharma for oneself, and it can be regarded as owing the other party a favor.
"I have read that book several times, but I always feel that some of the things recorded in it are a bit obscure. Even with senior annotations, it is still difficult to practice. Do you understand the contents?"
"Slightly gained." Wang An said truthfully.
After hearing this, the Taoist priest thought for a while and then walked to the bookshelf, picked up the book, opened one of the pages, and pointed to the first picture.
"Can the layman tell you more about this picture?"
"This is the method of exercising strength. The strength rises from the feet, along the legs to the waist, where it can be combined with the strength of the waist and abdomen. The upward path can be divided into two paths, one for the back and one for the waist.
on the chest,
This picture goes up the back, and this picture goes up the chest and abdomen." Wang An pointed to one of the pictures, and then pointed to the other picture.
"Then I would like to ask you, layman, how to sense this power and how to use it?" The Taoist priest was stunned for a while and then asked.
"You have to experience this by yourself, because the power is transmitted along the muscles and bones in the body, and the power is like water. If the Taoist priest doesn't mind..." Wang An raised his hand.
"please."
Wang An then stretched out his hand and drew a line from bottom to top, which was exactly the route of the first picture.
"This is a rough route. You might as well experience it carefully when practicing."
"Thank you, layman." The Taoist priest saluted Wang An.
"You're welcome, Master Taoist. It's getting late. I'll take my leave."
"Father, walk slowly."
After leaving the Sutra Collection Building, Wang An went to express his gratitude to Taoist Master Qinghui.
"It seems that lay people have gained something." The old Taoist priest said with a smile. When a person is happy, it can be seen from his expression and eyes.
"It's very rewarding. Thank you, Tao Changcheng."
Taoist priest Qing Hui smiled and waved his hands after hearing this.
"Ten years ago, a young man also went up the mountain and wanted to have a look at the Buddhist scripture building, but he went in secretly.
After being discovered by the disciples patrolling the mountain, he injured several disciples, then ran down the mountain and took away two books, one of which was a note written by a Tai Chi master a hundred years ago." Na Qinghui
The Taoist priest said.
"What's that person's name?"
"He Xiaolin seemed to be a very talented young man at the time, but his personality was a bit worse."
"If I happen to meet him in the future, I will help ask him what happened back then." Wang An said after thinking for a while.
"Okay, be careful. His kung fu was not simple back then. None of the disciples on this mountain could catch him. If he has studied hard and practiced hard in the past ten years, his kung fu must have been one step closer. Ahem."
Taoist Master Qinghui's cough seemed a little heavier than yesterday.
"Taoist Master, please pay more attention to your health."
"Hey, I'm getting older, so I can't compare to you young people." Taoist priest Qing Hui said with a smile.
Even those who practice martial arts cannot avoid birth, aging, illness and death. They will still get sick, but their bodies are stronger than ordinary people.
Wang An thanked the Taoist priest again and then left.
He slowly walked down the mountain alone, feeling very comfortable. Looking at the beautiful scenery in the mountains around him, it seemed that it was a bit more beautiful than the previous few days.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, he passed by an inconspicuous mountain. There was a large rock on the mountain that looked quite steep.
Wang An took one look at the rock and wanted to go up and have a look.
Looking around, there was no one else on the quiet mountain road except him, so he went to the mountain and came under the rocks.
My mind couldn't help but think of the stunt of Tiyun Zong that I saw in the "Sutra Library" not long ago.
He bent down and jumped up to a height of more than three meters. Then he stepped on a protruding rock and used his strength to push forward. He then jumped straight upwards. Halfway through, he felt that the direction was wrong and he was facing away diagonally.
And go.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He hurriedly bowed and raised his hand to grab a pine tree growing among the rock peaks. He dragged the person to the rock, grabbed the rock, used his arms hard, and stepped under his feet.
Kick, people jump up again.
He used his hands and feet on the rock and climbed up the rock nearly ten meters high by pedaling four times in succession. The whole process was done in one go.
"Huh, it's true that what you see on paper is shallow. You know that you have to practice it. You can't master this ladder by just looking at it. The skill of exerting force straight up and down can only be mastered through continuous practice."
The rocks above are oval-shaped and covered with cracks, just like a giant turtle shell.
There is a pine tree growing in the largest crack, more than one meter high, a little thin, but very stubborn. A gust of mountain wind blows, and the branches and leaves sway.
Wang An stood on this huge rock, looked around, and became interested, so he started practicing Tai Chi on it again.
The mountain breeze blows on my face, and there is gurgling water in the mountain stream not far away.
Wang An looked very relaxed, and the energy inside was flowing like water.
On the mountain road in the distance, two tourists came down from the mountain and were preparing to go down.
"Look, is there someone there?" One of the people pointed to the distance, looking at some abrupt rocks.
"where?"
"Then, on that big rock."
"Hey, it's true, hey, could that be the master who was on top of the Golden Summit a few days ago!"
"Nine times out of ten, let's go and take a look."
"Don't worry, I'll take a photo first and send it to Moments!"
"Hurry up, it's too late and no one is around!"
The two people hurriedly ran towards the rock where Wang An practiced boxing.
On top of the rocks, Wang An felt the mountain breeze. For a sudden moment, he felt that he had become a wisp of breeze.
"This is it, right? It's so high. It's like five stories high. How do you get up here?"
The two men came to the rock where Wang An practiced boxing.
"Needless to say, it's Qinggong."
The conversation between the two people was heard by Wang An at the top.
"
He glanced down and happened to see two people looking up.
"Look, there's someone there."
"Master!"
The two people hurriedly waved to Wang An on the stone and shouted.
"I didn't expect that people would come here." Wang An sighed helplessly. He looked at the deep valley in front of him.
"Just get down from here."
He looked down and walked four or five meters away, raised his hand to grab the rock, paused for a moment, let go, and continued to fall.
In this way, he soon fell into the valley, landed on the trees in the mountain, and landed on the tree trunks. He was like an ape, shuttling through the dense trees.
Jumping from one tree to another, he was so flexible and light that he startled a crowd of birds.
"Where's this master? Why hasn't he come down yet?"
"Maybe you don't want to see us?"
"Then he will have to come down sooner or later!"
"Look, there are many birds flying in the forest. Do you think the expert jumped into the valley and left?"
"It's really possible. How about we chase those flying birds?"
"good."
After a while, a figure suddenly emerged from the forest, carrying some leaves, vines, and cobwebs with it.
Bah, bah, I waved my hand and swept away the debris wrapped around my body.
This forest is completely different from the forest in my hometown. The plants inside are more lush, and some vines are wrapped around the trees and hanging in the air. I almost tripped when I entered suddenly.
Seeing that there was no one around, Wang An quickened his pace and went down the mountain.
On the empty mountain road, the two people were still looking for traces of him. They searched along the road next to the valley for a long time. They looked around carefully and almost fell down, but they didn't see a single figure.
