Chapter 41: The Heart Sutra of the Flood Wilderness
“…… Look at the nose, look at the nose and mouth...... Three breaths and one breath, three breaths and one breath......"
Thinking back to the old man's mantra, Jiang Lai slowly relaxed his body, meditated and contemplated, and felt the existence of 'qi'. As his breathing gradually became regular, unconsciously, he felt as if he was the only one between heaven and earth, all the hustle and bustle of the world disappeared, and he felt a kind of peace in his heart that he had never felt before.
Insect chirp...... The sound of swaying branches...... The sound of floaters spreading their wings...... Everything is so clear, it's as if the whole person is integrated into the surrounding environment.
At this time, he seemed to sense a breeze coming slowly, like a gentle hand, caressing his body, but a little naughty, as if teasing him, kept wandering around him.
I don't know why, at this moment, a strong urge suddenly appeared in Jiang Lai's heart, wanting to catch it. But how can the wind be caught?
“…… The air moves at will, and the mind moves at will......"
Yes!
A flash of spiritual light flashed, and Jiang Lai suddenly had a little more enlightenment.
Wind is invisible, invisible or touchable, and can only be sensed through the body, and the same is true for the 'qi' between heaven and earth, but its existence is more ethereal, and the body cannot perceive it, only through the mind.
You think it's there, it's there!
With a breath and a breath, Jiang Lai felt that the wisp of fresh wind seemed to be still, covering his body, slowly penetrating into his body through his skin. At the same time, he was surprised to find that there seemed to be a warm current in his body that was gradually growing, and his feelings were becoming clearer and clearer.
"This ...... Is it just qi?"
Jiang Lai was ecstatic, he just tried it casually, but he didn't expect it to be really successful. Since he can sense the existence of 'qi', it means that he has mastered the method of practicing qi. However, according to Wang Qian, if you want to cultivate internal strength, you must supplement it with the heart method, so that the qi can run between the meridians and Zhou Tian before you can sink into the dantian.
If he doesn't know how to cultivate the mind, even if he can sense that 'qi', he won't be able to stay in his body, and sooner or later it will dissipate. Moreover, he knew very little about the martial arts of Huaguo, and he didn't know anything about the meridians of the human body.
Thinking of this, he secretly smiled bitterly, it seemed that Bai was happy. However, just as he was about to give up, a mutation struck, and a mysterious and powerful force emerged out of thin air.
Jiang Lai is very familiar with this force, and it is the mysterious power that has helped him save the day countless times. He was a little strange, he didn't know why this force appeared at this time, could it be ...... In a flash of thought, under the leadership of a mysterious power, the warm current began to slowly swim in the body.
I don't know how long it took for Jiang Lai to be completely immersed in his own world, not disturbed by the outside world.
When Sunday's run ended, Jiang Lai only heard a 'boom', his mind was blank, and his ears were full of buzzing sounds. Immediately afterward, countless mixed information frantically poured in, flooding his mind.
"What the hell is this?"
In the midst of the anger, Jiang Lai felt that his brain capacity was about to be unbearable, and the swelling pain was incomparable, as if it was about to explode at any time. At this moment, that mysterious force guided the 'qi' that had just completed Zhou Tian's operation to slowly sink, and finally converged in the abdomen. In an instant, a warm current spread all over the limbs along the meridians, and the pain disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, he found that the mixed information in his mind receded like a tide, and in the end, only six golden characters remained, the Honghuang Taiyan Heart Sutra!
"Honghuang Taiyan Heart Sutra?"
At this moment, Jiang Lai, who had experienced strong winds and waves, was stunned, everything happened too fast, and he was in a fog until now. I just want to try to master the method of qi training, why did so many accidents happen inexplicably.
Just when he was puzzled, the six golden characters suddenly condensed, and then turned into a golden curtain of light, on which dense appeared no number traces, like tadpoles, crooked, obscure.
However, Jiang Lai was surprised to find that he could read these words. He was certain and certain that he had never been exposed to the ancient literature of China, but for some reason, this knowledge seemed to be deeply imprinted in his mind, and he could understand it at a glance.
Almost subconsciously, Jiang Lai silently read the words on the golden light curtain. With his recitation, the 'qi' between heaven and earth began to slowly gather around him.
……
At this moment, in Yajing's courtyard, Xiao Ling tried several times in a row, but they all ended in failure, but she was not discouraged, even her grandfather said that no one could master the Qi cultivation method in one day, so she didn't think it was her talent that was wrong.
"Alright, that's all for today. God said slowly: "Don't let the guests wait too long. ”
"Grandpa, who is that young man next to Uncle Wang, he won't be the guest you want to meet. ”
"Guest, do you think that kid is qualified to be my guest? Listening to Wang Qian, that young man seems to be a master of external cultivation, and he hopes I can give him some advice. When he said this, the old man was displeased.
With his status, not everyone is qualified to accept his guidance, and he wanted to refuse directly, but Wang Qian told him that the young man had a life-saving grace for him. People who practice martial arts are the most important kindness, and for the sake of Wang Qian's hard pleading, he reluctantly agreed, and then looked at the people first.
It's just that he didn't expect the other party to come so quickly, because he made an appointment with a guest, and he also met today.
"External cultivation?" The young man who came not far away sneered when he heard this, with a look of disdain, "Can only be called a master of external cultivation?" Who of us who practices martial arts doesn't know that external cultivation is a group of reckless men who can't get on the stage, and only internal martial artists are real masters. ”
"I don't know. The old man said mercilessly: "Didn't your master teach you, there is a heaven outside the sky, there are people outside the world, who said that there are no masters in external cultivation? If you have reached the peak of your external cultivation, your strength is ten thousand catties, and you are invulnerable, you dare to say that you are the opponent of that kind of person?"
After being reprimanded by the old man in front of the master and Xiao Ling, the young man's face was blue and red, so he had to laugh twice to hide his embarrassment.
After learning that the young man was an external cultivator, Xiao Ling suddenly lost interest. There is an insurmountable gap between external cultivation and internal cultivation, even if the external cultivation reaches its peak, the achievements are very limited, and only the internal cultivators have infinite possibilities.
Although she hasn't cultivated her internal strength yet, with her qualifications, it will be sooner or later, so she naturally feels superior.
"Hua Qing, I'm sorry, I'll receive the guests first, and we'll talk later. ”
"Old Xiao, you are busy. ”
"Girl, take Mr. Hua and his apprentice to have a cup of tea, and I'll be right away. After speaking, the old man turned his gaze to Wang Qian, who nodded knowingly and said, "Mr. Jiang, come with me, and I will take you to visit Elder Xiao." After taking a few steps, seeing that Jiang Lai behind him did not react, he couldn't help but turn his head, ready to say hello again.
However, before the words came to his mouth, he was stunned and looked at the scene in front of him dumbfounded.
