Chapter Forty-Seven: The Eyes of Heaven Leads to Five Fowl Plays

From the perspective of practice and TCM health preservation, the eyes are also an extremely important part, which is not only an integral part of the practice, but also an important part of strengthening the efficacy of the exercises. The eyes are related to the internal organs and the whole body.

"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" said that the human body's "essence of the five internal organs and six internal organs are all focused on the essence of the eyes." He also said, "All the veins belong to the eye." The reason why the eyes are able to see all things and distinguish colors is because of the nourishment of the essence of the five internal organs. Essence is the material basis of human life activities, and the eyes can only play a role by relying on the nourishment of essence, so that they can have normal vision and abundant divine light.

The "looking at the eyes" in the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine is to observe the various conditions of the eyes, not only to distinguish diseases, but also to infer the rise and fall of the functions of the internal organs of the human body. Dull-eyed gaze - less distraction; dimness of gaze - loss of mind; Back to the light - false gods.

At the same time, the essence of the five internal organs is infused upwards into the eyes, so the eyes and the true qi and consciousness in the body have an extremely close relationship, so the eyes have an important role and significance in the practice!

"The first practice of this exercise must be hard work to begin with, practice must stand every night horse step, staring at the moon, its practice, can be divided into several steps, every time you wake up, and do not open your eyes, with the thumbs of both hands relative to the heat, rub your eyes 14 times,......。 And with light green paper paste into a wind lamp, burn the sesame oil lamp, the flame beard is small, put it in the dark room, stand in front of the lamp two feet, sit cross-legged, or sit on the stool, calm down, concentrate, look at the lamp, when looking at a cook, close the eyes to make the eyes according to the previous method,......

Every day, the color of the paper is increased from the light lake color, until the dark blue, the distance is from two zhang to ten zhang, the flame of the light shrinks from the broad bean to the soybean size, and the time is increased from one hour to two hours, so far it can be distinguished in the dark at night. After this kind of night eye kung fu is practiced, it is not only conducive to night walking, but also in the water technique, opening the eyes in the water, it is necessary to practice this skill, so the rivers and lakes have tricks to practice finely, and the competition has the upper hand. ”

"The exercises that can also be used in conjunction with the practice of Tianyantong: 1. The head-up method, when practicing, the eyes are straight ahead, the body is upright, comfortable, the breathing is natural, and the mind is peaceful. Although he is looking straight ahead, he is not looking at the front seriously, but he should see it "lightly", or even ignore or turn a blind eye.

2. The curtain method, which is the practice of meditation. The so-called hanging curtain means that the upper eyelids of the eyes are naturally drooping like curtains and door curtains, and a slight line of light is revealed between the two eyes, and the eyes are looking at the front and bottom. The eyes are not too open, and they can't be completely closed, so there is a slight intention of looking down at the nose, but you can't really look at the end of the nose, otherwise it is easy to cause eye pain. With the deepening of the practice, due to the introverted divine will and the high concentration of the spirit in the practice, the qi of the five organs of the human heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys will be introverted, reaching the realm of "returning to the origin of the five qi" as the ancients said.

3. The method of moving with the form, that is, in the practice, the eyes should follow the changes in the body's movements, the eyes follow the shape, the heart moves with the eyes, and the qi moves with the heart. The exercises need to be slow, even, and gentle, and the eyes and mind will move slowly, evenly, and gently, and gradually reach a relatively 'static' state.

Fourth, retrospective inward viewing, that is, concentrating the mind, as if looking inward with the "eyes" at the body or some specific parts of the body, or more precisely, with the "heart". "The inner tunnel can only be observed by the viewer", which means that the eight meridians and meridians in the human body are like the "tunnel" of qi and blood circulation, and this complex human body tunnel can only be understood by those who have mastered and practiced the kung fu of "looking back and looking inside". This method is embodied in the Yi Jin Jing's "Picking Stars for Fighting Potential" and the "Resting Treatment" of the Six-Character Formula, and the "Shaking the Sea" in the Sitting Twelve Duanjin is a direct use of the "Inner Viewing Lower Abdomen" This "Looking Back and Looking Inward" practice method. ”

"As the world knows, these five poultry operas are created by the ancient physician Hua Tuo on the basis of his predecessors, by imitating the movements of tigers, deer, bears, apes, and cranes, a kind of exercise to strengthen the body with health care, it is a kind of "external movement and internal static", "movement and quietness", "both movement and static", there is rigidity and softness, rigidity and softness, practice inside and outside, and practice both inside and outside, and practice both inside and outside the bionic exercises, which can cure diseases and maintain health and strengthen the body. ”

Lao Dao said while rehearsing, "There are a total of 58 moves in this set of five bird opera routines after the improvement of my medicine king gate, including 15 styles of tiger play, 9 styles of deer play, 9 styles of bear play, 12 styles of ape play, and 13 styles of bird play. In addition, there are also Xiangsheng exercises, Xiangyi exercises, spirit ape play stupid bear exercises, crane play sparring, etc. Boy, you have to watch carefully! ”

"Tiger player, limbs from the ground, the first three throws, but two throws, long waist, side feet to the sky, that is, back distance, front, but each seven passes. The deer player, the limbs are far from the ground, the introduction is reversed, the left three is the right two, the left and right feet are extended, and the expansion and contraction are also three and two. ”

"The bear performer, who is leaning up and holding his knees with both hands, raises his head, squats on the ground on the left and seven on the right, and supports the ground with his hands left and right."

"The ape player, climbing objects and hanging themselves, stretching their bodies, up and down one seven, hanging themselves with their feet, seven on the left and right, but standing with their hand hooks, and seven on each head."

"Bird player, stand upright, one foot, stretch out two arms, raise eyebrows and encouragement, two seven, sit and stretch feet, hand to foot distance of seven, and stretch two arms seven each."

The tricks and styles used by the old way seem simple, but they are magnificent, the avenue is simplified, and the basics are returned; seems to be weak and powerless, but it is a sonorous sound, the sound of air explosions, one after another; The speed of the drill does not seem to be fast, but the wind is blowing, the track is erratic, and the eyes are left with residual images.

"Five birds into five elements, five elements out of four elephants, four elephants give birth to three talents, three talents to two instruments, two instruments into Taiji, Tai Chi breaks the Vientiane ......" The speed of the old road drill suddenly accelerated, a move and a style of urgency, the momentum is rising, the power is constantly superimposed, and suddenly the strong wind cuts the face, and the surrounding leaves are blown loudly.

Yang Jibin was dumbfounded, and the old way was completely like a state of madness. No matter what kind of beast it is, it is the wildest when it is the wildest, and it is the most powerful when it is the wildest.

Suddenly, there was a loud "bang", and a powerful force erupted between the palms of the old man, and it hit a huge hundred-year-old pine and cypress firmly, only to see sawdust splashing everywhere, and the pine and cypress were directly split by the flat spread, and after moving a few meters forward, they fell to the ground with a bang.

"Master, you're too good, my good girl, if Brother Qiang learns this trick, does he need to be as troublesome as a chainsaw for logging?" Yang Jibin walked to the broken tree, and took a closer look, except for a little burr on the edge of the fracture, most of the sections were very smooth and flat, as if they were cut with a treasure tenacy that sharpened iron like clay.

"See, apprentice, don't underestimate these five bird plays, there are many secrets hidden in them that are not known to the world, not only to strengthen the body and prolong life, but also to make the manpower infinite, and instantly burst out with the power of earth-shattering ghosts and gods, and the teacher only used sixty percent of his strength just now." Lao Dao touched his long beard, very satisfied with the shocking effect just now.

"Then Master, how much power do you have now to practice this set of five bird operas?"

"It's just a matter of power! If you can break through to the realm of earth immortals and cooperate with the five fowl plays, you can reach the power of half a dragon! ”

"Master, are you running a zoo or what? This is a cow, a tiger, and a dragon, how much power does it represent? ”

"The power of a bull is 2,000 catties, the power of a tiger is 3,000 catties, the power of two bulls and two tigers is 24,000 catties, the power of an elephant is 12,500 catties, and the power of a dragon is ten elephants. Well, you'll find out later. Did you take a closer look at my rehearsal just now? Let's take a look! ”

……

"Yes, you have mastered the essentials of the moves, and the rest is for you to practice and comprehend diligently. The level of the five fowl opera depends on your comprehension of the moves and moves. In the Ming Jin stage, the ultimate strength exerted is 5,000 catties; In the dark stage, the ultimate strength exerted is 12,000 catties; Strength, exerted the ultimate strength of 24,000 catties; When you reach the Earth Immortal Realm, it is said that you will have at least half a dragon's power, or even a dragon's power. ”

"I'll go, when I reach the realm of earth immortals, won't I be able to lift even Sun Wukong's 108,000-pound stick?" Yang Jibin was very surprised, Nima's, if you go to the Olympics to participate in weightlifting, how many people will be scared to death?

"That's nature, the realm of the earth and immortals, free between heaven and earth, mysterious, infinite power, what's impossible, haha!" The old Taoist cultivation has been successful, and his longevity has increased greatly, and he can't help but laugh heartily when he thinks that he has a good chance of breaking through to the legendary realm of earth immortals.

"The apprentice wishes the master great success, longevity and heaven, thousands of generations, and the unification of the rivers and lakes! Hey! After Yang Jibin slapped his ass for a while, he asked the old Taoist for advice, and he still had a lot of incomprehension about the two newly learned exercises, especially the Tianyantong exercises, which he dared to be interested in, and asked more carefully.

The old way is never tired of asking questions, teaching each other, one by one, teaching and solving doubts.

During the lunch meal, Yang Jibin gobbled up and said to Lao Dao: "Master, is there any kung fu suitable for girls to practice?" ”
