Chapter 19: Cultivating True Qi
After the things were unloaded, Qin Xuan drove the bicycle into the distance and found an open place and locked it.
After Cheng Deming put his things away, he walked out, it was already past six o'clock, and he was going to drive to pick up his daughter and Qin Mingming. Lincheng High School usually ends at half past six, and because Lincheng High School does not study in the evening, it delays the end of school in the afternoon by an hour.
Although many schools in China now have evening self-study, after the school committee of Lincheng High School held a meeting and collected the opinions of all teachers and students, the school committee announced that it would continue to retain the tradition of Lincheng High School - not to study at night. This decision has been supported by all teachers and students of the school, and it is also the only decision of the school committee that has been 100% supported by all teachers and students since the establishment of the school.
However, Lincheng High School's vacation time is also different from other colleges and universities, Lincheng High School has a half-day holiday every week, and then a big vacation a month later, a three-day vacation, this tradition has also persisted.
Cheng Deming said goodbye and drove to the school, if he was late, he would inevitably be complained by his baby daughter, he didn't want to hear the bombing sound in his ears again, once because he was late, he was directly said in his ear by his baby daughter for half an hour, it felt terrible to think about, so he didn't dare to be late again every time in the future.
Qin Xuan also went to the restaurant to help, now is the peak season of the restaurant, so he can't be busy for a while, usually Qin Xuan comes to help, and he is very familiar with these. In fact, helping in a hotel, because you have to deal with all kinds of guests, you need to deal with all kinds of people, and Qin Xuan's training is also very great. At least Qin Xuan's eloquence has made great progress.
After being busy for more than two hours, Qin Xuan had a little free time to take a break. Cheng Deming had already driven back, and Cheng Tingting and Qin Mingming came back to say hello and then went home to do their homework, and only Qin Xuan could be so leisurely, Cheng Tingting was very envious of this.
It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that the store was finally idle, and Qin Xuan had time to sit on the chair and take a good rest, he didn't expect that there would be a lot of guests tonight, but he didn't expect that he would meet the peak of guests when he came back early for the first time, it seems that he is really busy, Qin Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiao Xuan, are you tired!" At this time, Qin Huilan walked up to him with a glass of water and handed it to him.
Qin Xuan took the water, smiled hehe, and didn't speak, although he had a good physique, he had been busy for more than three hours, and he was also a little tired. After drinking a sip of water and moistening his throat, Qin Xuan felt much more comfortable.
"Hehe, Brother Xuanzi, are you done?" At this time, Cheng Tingting pulled Qin Mingming and rushed over from home, and greeted Qin Xuan with a smile.
"Hehe, I'm done, why are you here, I'm almost tired!" Qin Xuan looked at Cheng Tingting and couldn't help but smile and complain slightly.
"Hey, with you here, what are we doing here, do you say, Sister Mingming?" asked Cheng Tingting towards Qin Mingming.
"Yes, with your free labor here, we have to take a good rest today, hehe" Qin Mingming couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, Qin Xuan just said that when Qin Xuan was busy in the restaurant, he was working, and he didn't want these two little girls to be busy.
"Mom, is the meal ready, I'm starving to death!" Cheng Tingting shook Qin Huilan's arm and said coquettishly.
"Hehe, your dad is busy in the back kitchen, your brother Xuanzi has caught a lot of big fish today, you have a good mouth tonight, I'll take a look, you wait for a while, it should be soon." Qin Huilan saw that there were no more guests in the restaurant, and after saying a few words, she walked to the back kitchen.
"Oh, yes, Brother Xuanzi, you went fishing in the afternoon, alas, when I think of our tired study at school, and then when I think of Brother Xuanzi, you are so relaxed and chic, students in the same school, why is there such a big gap, alas!" Cheng Tingting first heard Qin Xuan go fishing, and then thought of herself, so she lay on the table and sighed mournfully.
"Tingting, don't sigh, let's go out another day to relax, what do you think?" Qin Mingming saw Cheng Tingting sighing there, and hurriedly sat next to her and held her shoulder and said.
"Ah, that's okay, we'll also go fishing then, alas, I've grown so big, I haven't been there yet, Brother Xuanzi, you have to go too, you have to teach me well!" Hearing Qin Mingming's words, Cheng Tingting jumped up happily and said happily.
"Well, okay, if you want to go, everything will be taught to me, and it will definitely make you happy. Qin Xuan patted his chest and hurriedly reassured.
At this time, the door of the back kitchen was also opened, and Qin Huilan came out with a plate of dishes and said, "Don't talk about it, the meal is ready, I was still hungry just now, hurry up and serve the food in the kitchen!"
"Oh, the meal is ready, I'm almost starving!" As soon as Cheng Tingting heard that the meal was ready, she pulled Qin Mingming and ran towards the kitchen.
When Qin Xuan saw his aunt coming out, he hurriedly got up and set the table and walked towards the kitchen.
The table is already full of dishes, some steamed, some braised ... The color, flavor and flavor are complete, and it makes people want to pick up chopsticks and taste it.
At this time, the table was also full of people, including Cheng Deming's family, two chefs in the back kitchen, as well as Qin Mingming and Qin Xuan, at this time Cheng Deming stood up, held his wine glass and said, "Two old brothers, the hotel is busy during this time, you two are fortunate, today Xiaoxuan fished several high-backed crucian carp, I personally cooked a few dishes, here to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, thank you two, come, I will do it first." After speaking, he drank it all, and the two chefs sitting opposite him also stood up, "Deming, you can let us do things in your restaurant, that is to look up to us, and besides, these are what we should do, what is polite, come, do!"
"Come, everyone try it, see how I do!" Cheng Deming hurriedly greeted after drinking.
"Well, it's delicious, Dad, what you made is so delicious!" Cheng Tingting was already hungry and couldn't wait, and when she heard Cheng Deming finish speaking, she hurriedly grabbed her chopsticks and commented while eating.
After everyone picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, they all applauded, Cheng Deming and the two old brothers fought together, Qin Xuan also raised his glass and drank a few glasses from time to time, and there was laughter and laughter at the dinner table, so it was not lively.
After eating, Qin Xuan and Qin Mingming went back first, and Cheng Deming and Qin Huilan had to go back after a while because the hotel still had something to do. Opening the door, the three of them washed up. After washing, Cheng Tingting and Qin Mingming each took their textbooks and asked Qin Xuan about their studies, and after a while, after they were done, the three of them came to the living room and watched TV.
Looking at the various moves played by martial arts characters on TV and the magical qigong they cultivated, Qin Xuan gradually began to think. In fact, after reading the many medical classics in the library, Qin Xuan had a vague idea, and he had been thinking about whether Qigong could be realized in the real world, but it was still inconclusive, but with his familiarity with the structure of the human body, as well as the study of the body's organs and meridians, he felt that this idea could be realized.
However, Qin Xuan had to study it carefully before he could make a conclusion. Qin Xuan is the kind of person who must realize once he makes a decision, since he had this idea, Qin Xuan decided to study it carefully, it seems that he will go to the library tomorrow to check the books about this area, which can be regarded as fulfilling one of his martial arts dreams.
After watching TV, Qin Xuan came to his bedroom to prepare to rest. Lying on the bed, but his heart was still a little excited, thinking that he might be able to cultivate true qi in the future, he couldn't sleep with excitement, but Qin Xuan still had strong self-control after all, and slowly calmed down in his heart. It took a lot of effort to go into the water to save Qin Xuan today, and after coming back, he was busy for more than three hours, Qin Xuan also felt a little tired, and after a while, Qin Xuan fell asleep.
Waking up regularly in the morning, after morning exercise, after eating some breakfast, Qin Xuan couldn't wait to ride his bicycle to the library.
Qin Xuan came to the martial arts novels section, where various martial arts novels and some books with detailed treatises on qigong were displayed, and Qin Xuan looked at them one by one. In this way, it took four days for Qin Xuan to read them one by one, in fact, after he finished reading the medical books, his reading speed increased a lot, and there were not many books in this area, so it took him a few days to finish them.
It wasn't until Qin Xuan closed the last book, closed his eyes and thought for a while that he came to a conclusion: Qigong is roughly divided into three stages: Qi gathering, channeling pulse, and application, and it depends on him how to practice.
After returning home, after thinking hard all night, Qin Xuan had a general idea.
The next morning, after the morning exercise, Qin Xuan began to sit cross-legged on the lawn of the forest park and exhale at the rising sun: first guard the sea of qi for a few minutes, and then begin to inhale, and at the same time imagine that the essence of the sun enters from the slightly opened mouth with the inhalation, passes through the throat, passes through the chest, and goes down to the sea of qi; In this way, one breath and one breath, an hour every morning, so Qin Xuan had one more morning exercise every morning.
In fact, Qin Xuan didn't know that his practice method had a certain danger, and most of the qigong of that sect was a secret that was not transmitted, how could he let them fly all over the streets and alleys, libraries and publishing houses?
And every time some meridians are opened, the person's skill will increase greatly, and with the difference in the initial meridians of cultivation at the beginning, the direction of development in the future will also be different, so there are various sects, and naturally the exercises of these sects will also be divided into high and low.
What is circulating outside the world is nothing more than some fake Taoism, some "fake" books written by fake masters; they only know some acupoints such as Dantian, Baihui, etc., and then cooperate with the meridian diagram of the human body in the Chinese medicine book, relying on their own imagination to make up qigong; they don't know how to guide the true qi through the veins when they first practice, so they imagine that they must first gather qi, and then blow up the qi, so that the true qi can open up the second pulse of Rendu by themselves under the condition of extreme fullness.
As a result, there are all kinds of strange ways to gather qi, such as: absorbing the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, guarding the sea of qi, and so on. As everyone knows, if the second pulse of Ren Du was so easy to be opened, the martial arts masters would have already run all over the ground.
However, they are not bad, at least that method of gathering qi is still some good for the body, people who can persist all year round, can gather a small amount of qi in the body, because they have not been reasonably guided, so they unconsciously spread to the whole body, most of them are released to the heaven and earth again, and a very small number of them moisturize the whole body, so that they can be healthy, drive away cold and disease, and prolong life.
With the loss of time, this kind of self-cultivation qigong is gradually recognized by the majority of people, and the qigong and internal strength used for fighting and fitness have become legendary stories made up by people who write novels and do not exist at all. The real becomes false, the fake becomes true, and it seems that as long as the majority of people agree with something, even if it is outrageously wrong, people will say that it is right.
And Qin Xuan naturally started his cultivation from Qigong, which was recognized by most people. If it was an ordinary person, then there was no need to guess, it would definitely only have the effect of dispelling illness and prolonging life, but what if it was Qin Xuan, a freak, who started cultivating? You must know that he has been baptized by the mysterious pool water, then the consequences are unknown.
After a few days of hard training, in this morning, Qin Xuan finally felt the presence of qi. So he smiled with joy, and said to the sun: Haha, this qi is not for me to cultivate, that feeling of pride made Qin Xuan unable to hold back any longer, clenched his hands into fists, and shouted excitedly at the sun: "Look at me!" A breathtaking momentum surged out of his body, and with his voice, it was full of pride and ambition to swallow mountains and rivers;
