Chapter 40: Qi Training
Back in the dining room, Hai Liusha and Ruan Xiang were still studying the computer storage disk, over and over again, as if they wouldn't give up until they found something.
Jiang Lai shook his head helplessly, too lazy to waste his words with them, and left the villa alone.
People like Hai Liusha who have status and are not short of money, the garage is full of all kinds of luxury cars, and they are rarely used except for regular maintenance. Jiang Lai glanced at it, and then picked a Wrangler. Although he wanted to keep a low profile, he couldn't help it, the cheapest car in the garage was this.
Before Wang Qian left last night, he left him a business card, with an address on it, which was in QZ City.
When I was talking to Qing Manrong on the phone just now, the other party mentioned the existence of a terrorist force. With his understanding of Qing Manrong, what can make her feel terrifying is definitely not simple. And, from the tone of her voice, he could feel a deep fear.
Wang Qian once told him that this world is very big, so big that it is beyond his imagination, and what he sees now is only the tip of the iceberg. If he guessed correctly, the terrifying power mentioned by Qing Manrong may have a close relationship with those martial cultivators in Huaguo.
Although he possessed a mysterious and powerful power in his body, that power was too depleting to his body and could not be easily used until he was forced to do so. Therefore, he wants to make himself stronger in another way, and only in this way can he cope with the crises that may arise at any time in the future.
After a twenty-minute drive, Jiang Lai drove to the location marked on the business card.
"It turned out to be a martial arts gym. However, the door of the martial arts hall was closed, and there was a notice of the transfer of the faΓ§ade on it, and I don't know if anyone was there. He stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door, and in a short time there was a sound of footsteps, a 'squeak', and the door opened.
A little boy poked out of it, looked at Jiang Lai, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"Little guy, please pass it on for me, and say that Jiang Lai came to visit Mr. Wang Qian. β
"It turns out that you are Jiang Lai, my master has explained to me, if you come, let me take you directly to see him. β
Hearing this, Jiang Lai was a little surprised, "Your master knows that I am coming?"
"Of course he does, and he knows what you're here for. With that, the little boy walked out with a bag on his back, turned around and locked the door, "Let's go." β
After getting into the car, Jiang Lai drove the Wrangler on the road again, and under the guidance of the little boy, about half an hour later, the two went all the way north after leaving the city, driving more than ten kilometers, and finally arrived at their destination.
As far as the eye can see, an antique courtyard sits in a lush green forest, surrounded by lush vegetation and babbling streams, making the environment quiet and elegant. It can be seen that the person who lives here is a person who knows how to enjoy life.
"Master, I'm coming!" the little boy jumped out of the car and immediately shouted loudly.
Suddenly, I saw a middle-aged man walking out of the vermilion lacquer door, it was Wang Qian.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry to make you take such a long detour. β
Jiang Lai smiled slightly, "Since I came to visit Mr. Wang, even if I walked farther, I should go." As he spoke, he pointed to the chic courtyard, "I didn't expect Mr. Wang to be an invisible rich man." He knew in his heart that although this was a suburb of the city, the cost of building this courtyard would definitely be expensive, at least starting from 10 million.
"Mr. Jiang, don't laugh at me, how can I afford to live in this kind of place, this is the residence of a senior, I came here to take refuge. β
"Evacuation?"
Wang Qian said with a bitter face: "You don't understand the horror of the Divine Hidden Society, and if you have a relationship with them, retaliation is inevitable, so I ran here to seek protection from my predecessors." β
Jiang Lai suddenly realized, no wonder Wang Qian's martial arts hall would post a notice of transfer from the door, it is estimated that he was afraid of affecting his apprentice, so he dismissed everyone. This shows how terrifying the influence of the Shenyin Society is in China.
Following Wang Qian into the courtyard, Jiang Lai asked, "Mr. Wang, listen to your apprentice, do you know the purpose of my coming to you?"
"Haha! Mr. Jiang, don't be in a hurry to say this, I'll take you to meet the owner of this place first. Wang Qian said secretly: "This senior is a real capable person, and whether you can get his guidance depends on your creation." After a pause, he reminded again, "Be quiet later, the senior is instructing his granddaughter, don't disturb him." β
While speaking, an old man with gray hair appeared in Jiang Lai's sight, the old man looked to be in his seventies and eighties, although he was a lot older, he was in good spirits, his face was ruddy, his breath was stable, and he felt that his body was tougher than that of young people now.
Next to the old man, there was a delicate girl sitting cross-legged, in her twenties, with delicate facial features, soft long hair slightly curled, painted with light makeup, beautiful and beautiful, a set of white tight-fitting practice clothes, set off the graceful slender figure, concave and convex, very well developed.
Although it is not as good as the country and the city of the sea quicksand, but, perhaps because of the perennial martial arts, she is heroic and has a unique charm, and she is a rare beauty.
Not far away, a burly middle-aged man and a young man were standing. The young man was handsome, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with a respectful demeanor, and looked at the girl with admiration.
Seeing that the old man was concentrating on guiding the girl, in order not to affect the other party, Jiang Lai and Wang Qian stopped and stood quietly aside.
"Girl, you have been practicing martial arts for more than ten years, and your foundation has been solid, and it is time to try to contact the threshold of internal strength. If you want to cultivate internal strength, you first need to master the basic method of practicing qi. Between heaven and earth, 'qi' is omnipresent, but it can't be seen or touched. You have to integrate yourself into heaven and earth, feel nature, absorb the qi of heaven and earth, and gather in the dantian. As long as you can sense the presence of 'qi', you have taken the first step. β
As the words fell, the old man carried his hands behind his back, and a gentle breeze came out of thin air, rolling up the fallen leaves around him, wrapping around him, constantly rotating, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, as if they were all under his control.
Jiang Lai was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, and his heart was extremely shocked, so powerful...... This should be what Wang Qian said, with qi to control things, it seems that this old man's internal strength cultivation has reached a good height.
In the amazed gaze of his granddaughter, the old man put away his magical powers and said lightly: "Girl, there are some things that can only be understood but not spoken, no matter how much you say, the key lies in your own understanding, now I will pass on the basic mantra to you, you slowly understand...... Look at the nose, look at the nose and mouth, three inhales and one exhale, three exhales and one inhale, long inhale and long exhale, the breath moves at will, the intention moves with the heart, and the air is immersed in the dantian......"
The girl was fascinated just now, and when she saw her grandfather teaching the key, she quickly closed her eyes slightly, meditated and concentrated, sensing the surrounding 'qi', but after a while, she opened her eyes in disappointment and pouted: "Grandpa, what is the 'qi', except for your breath, I don't feel anything." β
"You girl. The old man said slightly angrily: "Be serious for me, don't be hippie and smiling, otherwise you will be grounded for half a month." β
After a pause, perhaps because he felt that his tone was a little heavy, he immediately became patient, "Girl, Qi cultivation is the only way to cultivate internally, as long as you cross this threshold, you will see a whole new world." Of course, it is not easy to get over this hurdle, many people who practice martial arts stop here, and I don't expect you to succeed once, after all, it took me four months to take this step. β
"Xiao Ling, come on, with your qualifications, I believe that one day is enough. The youth not far away encouraged.
"One day?" the old man snorted lightly, "you can't help but think too highly of her, as far as I know, no one has ever been able to comprehend the method of Qi cultivation in a day, even if he is a genius, unless he is not human." Speaking of this, he glanced at the middle-aged man standing quietly next to the young man, "Hua Qing, your apprentice's knowledge needs to be improved. β
"Xiao Lao taught a lesson. Hua Qing glared at his apprentice, who smiled wryly, but he didn't expect the horse's fart to be slapped on the horse's leg, so he quickly shut up.
At this moment, Jiang Lai, who was listening not far away, seemed to have an understanding, closed his eyes by himself, got rid of distracting thoughts, and integrated into the surrounding environment wholeheartedly.
