On April 2, 2052, 16-year-old Mei Lingshang won the first women's professional Go championship in her life in the National Women's Go Open. She was very happy and celebrated with her parents at Sanyan Pavilion in Hangzhou.
.
Mei Lingshang said: "Mom, you have worked hard these years."
There were tears in Li Man's eyes. Eight years ago, she quit her job to accompany her daughter, taking her to chess lessons and competitions. She had to bear a lot of pressure along the way.
The path of a professional chess player is difficult. My daughter dropped out of school at the age of 12, which is equivalent to a desperate move. Once she fails to learn chess, there is no way out.
Before her daughter was promoted to the second-level pro at the age of 14, Mei Lingshang had been spending the family's money. After the age of fourteen, her performance improved, but it was still so-so and unsatisfactory. At the age of fifteen, she was promoted to the third-level pro and participated in the women's professional league.
She is somewhat famous in China and is praised as the "Beautiful Go Girl". She can basically support herself.
Since last summer, she participated in the "Brain Development Class" and was accepted as a disciple by the famous writer "Yun Ji", who taught her the techniques of nourishing Qi and nourishing the mind. My daughter seems to have become a different person. She sleeps the same amount of time every day.
The time is shortened from 8 hours to 5 hours, giving more time to study chess records and even time to study cultural courses.
In just eight months, Mei Lingshang completed her junior high school tuition and is currently studying in high school at night school.
Father Zhao Ming was also happy for his daughter and said: "Since you have chosen Go as a career, you should concentrate on playing chess and don't spend too much energy on night school. I will help you hire a tutor and ask the teacher to come to your home and teach you a lesson."
Just focus on the key points, you don’t have to cover everything.”
Zhao Ming is an engineer at Ant Company, and his annual salary is relatively high, which can support the family expenses. Even if his daughter stays at home doing nothing, he can still raise her to the age of marriage. What's more, her daughter is already a professional chess player.
There are specialties in the arts, and as long as you play chess well, you can live a happy life.
However, Mei Lingshang said: "Dad, I still want to get into college."
"What are you going to do in college?"
"I just want to take the exam."
"Why?"
"Teacher Ke said that learning more about culture will help you understand the theory of chess." A smile appeared on her face, she lowered her head to eat her food and said no more.
That night, Mei Lingshang mustered up the courage to send her first WeChat message to Lu Qingshan: "Brother, I am Mei Lingshang. I am very happy today. I won the first professional women's Go championship. But I am very worried about the key to the final.
I have doubts about my move, can you help me clarify it?"
"Well, please send me the chess record."
"Okay. In the prologue stage, step 45, I had three considerations. The first one..."
"I'll do some research and send you the solution at night."
"Thank you, senior brother."
Mei Lingshang's smile was as bright as a flower. Her pretty face was smiling excitedly. Her two thin lips were smiling, her sparse eyebrows and slender eyes were smiling. She had two deeply sunken cheeks.
The dimples are also smiling.
Mother pushed the door open and came in, saying: "It's time to go to bed. What's wrong? You're too excited to fall asleep?"
"Yes, Mom, today is my happiest day."
"Next month, you have a league game in Shangjing and you pass by Quancheng on the way. Do you want to go and see your master?"
"My master is very busy and may not be able to see her. I will send her an email to ask."
"I heard that she lives by Qinghai Lake all year round?"
"Well, I live there for at least eight months a year, and my whereabouts are uncertain for the other months. Either in Qiucheng Garden, Suzhou, or Qingquan Villa in Quancheng, or maybe Taohuayu in Daicheng."
"How many children does your master have?"
"I don't know."
"I heard she has a daughter. Have you seen her?"
"No."
Li Man sighed: "Big men like this protect their children very well. They don't let their children appear in the public eye and don't force them to work hard. But ordinary people like us will not find happiness if we don't work hard." Come and try it soon.]
Mei Lingshang smiled and said: "Mom, I will work hard. Just wait and enjoy the blessings."
She is only 16 years old and has won the championship, and is full of hope for the future.
In late April, Lu Cheng received his disciple Chi Yingyue and her boyfriend Zhang Lan in Qiucheng Garden.
At this time, the energy in Zhang Lan's body had exceeded ten feet.
He handed a thick stack of information to Lu Cheng: "Sir, this is the meditation method that I came up with after visiting several temples, reading their secret manuals, and painstakingly studying it."
Lu Cheng said: "Tell me, how many realms of meditation are there?"
Zhang Lan said: "The realm of Zen concentration can be divided into six types, namely, emptiness concentration, breath concentration, fire concentration, light concentration, dharma body concentration and great nirvana concentration.
The initial state of meditation is empty concentration, which is the foundation and the entry state for entering all states of meditation. It is a kind of quiet concentration and feels very peaceful.
Practice inner qi on the basis of emptiness. When the inner qi is sufficient, the qi will travel along the meridians and fill the whole body. The body will feel slightly swollen, relaxed, warm, and like a crazy person.
The feeling of being drunk, etc.
In qi concentration, the body and nature are one, and the inner qi is also integrated with the atmosphere, harmonious, comfortable, full of vitality, and embraced by spirit and energy. People like to call this feeling the unity of nature and man.<
/p>
Fire concentration burns away all worries, and life is reborn. Without sufficient inner energy, fire cannot be produced. Fire is generated from the Dantian, leading its fire along the central channel up to the Crown Chakra, then back to the Muladhara Chakra, and then up to the Crown Chakra.
If you go back and forth like this three times, you will surely be able to confirm the state of great happiness of four joys and four emptinesses, and your worries will be eliminated.
Light concentration is the state after fire concentration. Fire produces great happiness, while light produces a sense of solidity. When entering light concentration, except for a very slight electric numbness, the whole body feels as solid as a rock, and the music and fire are
It’s definitely different, it’s a deeper level of chain repair.
Then there is Dharma body concentration. After the real Dharma body is cultivated, during meditation, the Dharma body will appear in the void and become a wonderful existence in the vacuum. The Dharma body will continue to shine and benefit all living beings in the three realms, doing nothing, just like the brilliance of the sun.
Finally, there is the Great Nirvana Concentration, also known as the Concentration of Emptiness and Nothingness. The reality of the middle way also turns into emptiness, and the real Dharma body disappears, that is, it enters this concentration. Entering this concentration, the six elements all turn into emptiness and enter.
The most primitive source of emptiness before it was born, everything is inactive and does nothing."
Lu Cheng pondered for a moment and felt that Buddhist meditation had similarities with Taoist cultivation, and was also similar to witchcraft cultivation.
He asked again: "What state are you in now?"
Zhang Lan replied: "I have just broken through Qi Ding and entered the early stage of Fire Ding."
Lu Cheng said: "Thank you for making such a trip. Did the trip go well?"
"Except for Shaolin Temple, all the other temples went smoothly."
"What? The abbot of Shaolin Temple is making things difficult for you?"
"I gave your letter to the host. The host read the letter and only allowed me to read some of the books in the Scripture Pavilion. I couldn't see the real secrets."
"Humph, the Shaolin Temple family has a great career, fame and fortune, and they don't care about the incense money I give them."
Lu Cheng stayed with them one night in Qiucheng Garden, and gave Chi Yingyue some guidance on his practice.
The next day, they left Qiucheng Garden and went back to Jinling to work.
