Chapter 20 The so-called practice (please comment!)
He says that practicing martial arts is not as good as cultivating immortality, but his body is honest.
After all, there is no clue about cultivating immortals. No matter the past or present life, they only exist in story books, which is far less practical than the Yunhe Technique.
After calming down, Chen Yu continued to practice.
Yunhe Gong has its own breathing skills, which is not very advanced in reality, but it allows people to adjust the internal organs through breathing during movements and stillness. When practiced to a high level, it can even regulate the blood transport in the body to a certain extent, thereby strengthening the heart and other important organs.
organ.
At the foot of the mountain, this stage is called 'training the internal organs'.
Training the internal organs requires strong cooperation, so it is a standard equipment for masters to a certain extent. Once you get into it, you can be considered a good player.
Although in Chen Yu's eyes, the rivers and lakes below the mountain are turbulent, third-rate people are everywhere, and second-rate people are not as good as dogs, but in fact, due to factors such as talent, perseverance, luck, etc., there are not many people who can be called first-rate people in a county, and most of them are still holding the
I don't know where I got the scraps, but I have been practicing martial arts for most of my life and have never been able to cross the threshold.
With his newfound strength, he moved his fists and feet with increasing momentum, and every move made a whirring sound.
From time to time, you can still hear the crackling sound of bones and flesh trembling and interacting with each other. I don't know if it is because of the nourishment of the spiritual fluid, but during the training process, Chen Yu found that his body was much more flexible than before.
At the same time, he immersed himself in his mind, comprehending the subtle changes, trying to find the anchor point of the action of the spiritual liquid and the source of the strange force that grew in the flesh and blood.
Swallowing, drinking, and absorbing spiritual liquid must go through a process, just like eating a meal that enters the stomach and is decomposed by gastric acid, or inhaled oxygen that is carried throughout the body by the blood.
He didn't think that the spiritual liquid acted out of thin air and produced that strange power out of nowhere. There should be a basis for it, and it was within his body.
If it can be found and used, it will surely be of great use to future martial arts training and to a deeper understanding of the essence of spiritual liquid and even spiritual energy.
But he soon felt how difficult this approach was.
His mental strength, which was far beyond that of ordinary people, encountered an unimaginable dilemma at this moment. He was unable to penetrate and perceive the situation in his body. After several attempts, he could only rely on his strength to explore bit by bit.
This process is undoubtedly difficult and will consume a lot of time and energy. Chen Yu tried to use all his strength to wash out a small area of the elbow. In the end, it only spread less than half an inch before it was exhausted, and the bones and muscles relaxed.
, can no longer be activated in a short period of time.
He could only stop. The power generated by warriors is not the kind of thing in fantasy works that flows through the body like internal force. It has no entity, let alone a trickle or a rushing river.
Regarding this point, Yunhe Gong has detailed records.
What is strength? The skin, bones, blood, flesh, and tendons of a person are all in one place and come out. This is strength!
In the final analysis, internal energy is still just a kind of force, but its performance has the characteristics of piercing and explosiveness.
So stimulating internal energy is actually to control the power all over the body at one point. This point can be the outer skin, it can be said to be the bones, it can be said to be anywhere in the body, and the energy can be sent and received wherever it goes!
Of course, to achieve this step at least requires a great deal of inner strength, which is far beyond the reach of Chen Yu, a novice who has just started.
He was able to get started thanks to the spiritual liquid and the force that could penetrate the body and allow power to easily penetrate everywhere.
"The power that penetrates flesh and blood..."
Stopping, Chen Yu spread his palms and stared.
It always feels like after drinking the spiritual liquid, this body is slowly being transformed. The obvious changes are not big, but some places behave very differently from usual.
Spiritual liquid...spiritual energy...what exactly is it that you have grown?
He had some doubts, could it really be the kind of 'aura' in the story?
As soon as the thought came up, he couldn't help but shake his head. It shouldn't be the case. No spiritual energy could be grown. Moreover, his spiritual energy could not be touched or eaten. He had to use well water to fuse it before he could take it.
…
That night, Chen Yu rarely thought a lot. He lay on the bench with his head propped up and looked up at the misty mountains in the distance. Various thoughts in his mind came and went, swirling and extinguishing.
One crop after another, as numerous as weeds.
Cultivation of immortals. If you say you don’t expect it, that would be false. People can travel through different worlds, and martial arts do exist. Who can say with certainty that there is no way to cultivate immortality?
But he had never seen it, and he had never heard of it. If he said that he was trapped in a corner and didn't know the outside world, then his predecessor, the old master Guanzhu, must have traveled north and south to gain knowledge. He had been to the desert beyond the Great Wall and drank from the hot springs in the snow-capped mountains.
But they also keep a respectful distance from these ghostly things.
In the words of the old Buddhist master, longevity is achievable, but those who dream of immortality and eternal life are evil and crooked. Everyone is mortal, and a true Taoist practitioner should follow the way of heaven and be at ease, return to nature in the understanding of heaven and earth, and avoid making false promises.
Ba Nao.
All in all, practicing martial arts for self-defense, cultivating Taoism and cultivating the mind will naturally nourish the body and soul, and lead to a long and healthy life.
Well, the old Taoist priest is a Taoist cultivator of the Jingming Dharma sect of the Zhengerba Sutra. He pays attention to understanding the mind and seeing one's nature. Most of all, he despises the so-called practice of relying on external objects.
For example, the Danding Dharma School manipulates lead and mercury.
It is believed that those who make clay pills have their hearts and lungs contaminated by ink, so they come up with various poisonous elixirs to deceive the world, not only causing cholera in the world, but also bringing disaster to the Taoist sect's reputation.
Even the Qingxin Pills passed down by the second-generation temple master were left idle for a long time in his hands. It was not until he suffered a disaster at the foot of the mountain and was really stuck with money and food after returning to the mountain that he pinched some and took them down the mountain to the exchange.
need.
I only made it a few times and never resold it again.
As his thoughts turned, Chen Yu thought of the theory of cultivation that he often heard in his previous life.
Cultivation, cultivation of truth through falsehood, seeking truth and asking questions.
In the novel, cultivators can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, move mountains and unload mountains, and those with great supernatural powers can live forever.
But in fact, few people can achieve this.
As for the reason, he guessed that the two lives he had experienced were without the most crucial thing - aura.
This aura is naturally not the kind he planted.
But after all, what is Reiki?
The mother energy of all things? The essence contained in all living beings? Or the embodiment of the rules of heaven and earth's operation?
The Taoist priests of the previous life believed that spiritual energy was given to people when they were first born. It enables them to be astute and enlightened, to learn without stagnation, and to concentrate and nourish their souls. Cultivation is to cultivate one's spiritual energy and not to be corrupted by the world; to be natural and not to do evil.
What you see is stagnant.
The spirit of the house is inside and shines on the outside. Over time, it naturally becomes different from ordinary people, and it is called a god.
Seeking mysteries and cultivating immortals is to cultivate oneself.
From this point of view, the deconstruction of Taoism in this life is actually very similar to that of Taoism in previous lives.
In particular, the concepts of the two major schools of law, Jingming and Hesha, are almost the same.
In the end, Chen Yu concluded that regardless of past or present life, practicing Taoism is a process of adapting to the changes in the world and pursuing the true self.
It is about cultivating the mind and nature, tending towards enlightenment and self-understanding.
As for the spiritual energy mentioned in the Taoist scriptures, it is most likely just a kind of sustenance, an expectation for the mind to be at ease and blend in with the nature of heaven and earth.
What about this one?
Is it aura? Or something else?
Chen Yu raised the water bag, which still contained a small amount of spiritual liquid, and drank it. His whole body suddenly felt light, as if he was in the swaying clouds, and his thoughts calmed down. There was no longer so much complexity, only emptiness remained.
At this moment, the sea of consciousness that had always been turbulent became peaceful again.
After a long time, he woke up and felt that his mind was clear and there was no longer any entanglement and annoyance that had been vaguely accumulated before.
He glanced at the dark sky and smiled freely.
"Random thoughts, really random thoughts!"
Patting his forehead, he stood up straight and walked briskly towards the bedroom in the inner courtyard.
Why do you think so much? Regardless of whether it is spiritual or not, since it has been planted, just make good use of it.
There is no point in worrying about this, it is a waste of time.
If you really want to cultivate immortality, the best thing you can do is to find a way by yourself. When the time comes, you can decide your own realm. Today you will be a small apprentice practicing qi, and tomorrow you will be a true immortal.
Isn’t it wonderful?!
The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.
Chen Yu smiled, raised his head and took another sip, his expression becoming more relaxed and carefree.
Wrong word, wrong word, wrong word! I have two hundred bug catchers! If you just make a typo, you will show up and die soon!
