Chapter 331: Years in the Mountains (I)
At half past five the next day, Long Qing got up on time, got dressed and came to the stream not far behind the house. Looking at the clear water of the stream, some of the pictures in my memory also come to life.
During the two years here, Long Qing was almost isolated from the world, practicing every day, thinking about nothing. It was also here that he completed the biggest leap in his kung fu, integrating all the killing techniques he had learned before, integrating his mind, mind, spirit, and body into one, and reaching the Jindan realm mentioned in Kyushu's traditional martial arts.
The Jin Dan here is the Jin Dan in the traditional martial arts of Kyushu, not the Jin Dan of Daomen Cultivating Immortals.
There was a slight sound of footsteps in his ears, and Long Qing knew that it was Zhao Yan without looking back.
"Good morning, Master. Zhao Yan said softly. Zhao Yan was holding some toiletries in her hand, obviously coming to wash.
"Well, you're busy, start training in half an hour!"
Half an hour later, the three of them were standing on the grass by the stream. At this time, the sun will rise but not rise, and the east side will be red and beautiful.
Long Qing said softly: "Look at it!" After speaking, his footsteps were pulled slightly, and then his hand also waved naturally, and he started a set of boxing techniques similar to Taijiquan.
The reason why it is said to be similar to Taijiquan is because this boxing method is slow and smooth, which is very similar to the rhythm and speed of Taijiquan, but Zhao Yan has practiced Taijiquan, and after careful observation, it is found that Long Qing's one move and one style are very different from Taijiquan. After a few minutes, Long Qing's movements were still very smooth, but the speed was much faster than before, and as time went by, the speed became faster and faster, as if it was flowing water. In the end, almost all of the space in which Long Qing was active was his shadow.
Zhao Yan and Lin Raorao's eyes widened, on the one hand, they were amazed by Long Qing's amazing speed, and on the other hand, they hoped to see Long Qing's every movement clearly, so as to write it down.
Suddenly, all the figures of Long Qing within a radius of one zhang were gathered into one, like a hundred birds returning to the forest. For a while, everything was quiet. Long Qing pressed down lightly with both hands, exhaling a heavy mouthful of turbidity. It stands to reason that the temperature is very high in summer, and it is difficult for the air spit out by a person to condense into mist, but the breath that Long Qing spit out is extremely clear, straight like a line, until it is more than a meter away before slowly thickening and spreading.
At this moment, Chaoyang poked out a trace of gold, and a golden light shone on Long Qing's face, which happened to be inhaled into his abdomen by Long Qing, who had completed his breathing. Bright light is only the energy of solar radiation, which can only travel in a straight line. But at that moment, Zhao Yan really seemed to see that the light was distorted and thrown into Long Qing's mouth and nose.
"Absorb the essence of the sun and the moon!" Zhao Yan suddenly popped up these seven words in her mind.
"Wow, Master is so powerful!" Lin Raorao didn't look as carefully as Zhao Yan, but she also felt that Long Qing just now was extraordinarily chic, like a fairy.
Long Qing looked at Zhao Yan and smiled, "Did you see anything?"
Zhao Yan asked, "Master, what kind of boxing method are you fighting, is it Tai Chi?"
Long Qing shook his head and said, "It's not Taijiquan, it's not any kind of boxing, it's just random movement." ”
"Move at will?" Zhao Yan frowned, suddenly thinking of Long Qing's last two movements of spitting and inhaling, and raised her head and asked, "Could it be that Master's previous movements are all preparing for the final breath?"
Long Qing nodded approvingly and said, "This is a set of spiritual cultivation methods that I created by myself in combination with some classics. ”
"Cultivating the Divine Method?" Lin Raorao stared at the big eyes in confusion, only to feel that the master's words were becoming more and more mysterious, not like talking about martial arts, but more like cultivating immortals in the novel.
Long Qing said: "I have already told you before, in martial arts, the body and the god are two equally important aspects, the so-called body, refers to the physical fitness, including strength, speed, flexibility, agility, sensitivity and other aspects, and God is the general term for all mental activities and mental states. Martial arts have reached a higher level, and the importance of gods is beyond doubt. Even if the human body wants to break through its own innate barriers, it needs God's guidance. The so-called method of cultivating one's own gods is a method of nourishing, shaping, and improving one's own spirit. ”
Long Qing's explanation was so simple that even Lin Raorao, who was a layman in martial arts, understood a lot, and couldn't help asking, "Master, do you mean that the method you just fought can help us improve our own gods?"
Long Qing nodded: "The method of cultivating the gods is not my originality, there are related studies in Kyushu when it is very ancient, especially Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism, which are studied more deeply, because religion pursues spiritual transcendence, but ignores a lot of physical exercises." The martial arts masters of the Kyushu dynasties have referred to many religious texts when they practiced the 'gods', and they have also summarized many methods. Among them, the most commonly used method is to insist on something for ten years, as a spiritual sustenance. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yan couldn't help asking: "This seems to be the same way ordinary people exercise their perseverance." ”
Long Qing nodded and said: "Perseverance is a kind of 'god', the strength of the body needs to be exercised day after day, and the strength of the spirit also requires perseverance. Insisting on something is refining the gods. In addition to perseverance, it is also necessary to stimulate the 'gods', just like the flesh to take tonics. In this regard, the Taoist method is the most varied, the most famous being 'absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, absorbing the splendor of the sun and the moon'. ”
"Absorb the essence of heaven and earth, absorb the splendor of the sun and the moon?" Zhao Yan muttered in her mouth, and said secretly, "Sure enough, it is similar to what I initially guessed." ”
Lin Raorao originally understood a little, but when she heard this, she began to get confused again, isn't this another means of cultivating immortals in the novel?
Long Qing then explained: "As I said just now, all my actions in front of me are to prepare for a breath and a breath in the back. The previous movements are not stereotyped, but they are just a method that I use to empty my mind, with which I can eliminate almost all distracting thoughts, and my mind is naturally connected with heaven and earth, and then I exhale, empty myself, and then breathe, as if I have incorporated the essence of heaven, earth and the sun into my body. This is a method of self-hypnotic autosuggestion, rather than really absorbing any essence from the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon, what we absorb is also just air. ”
Lin Raorao understood a little now, and said with a frown: "In other words, this method taught by the master is actually just a set of self-hypnotic and suggestive methods?"
Long Qing nodded and said, "So to speak." ”
Lin Raorao was a little disappointed, how did such a handsome set of kung fu become like a liar in the end?
