Chapter 106: Uncle Hong Rong

For some reason, Xu Yan always felt that Hong Yan's gaze at him was a little strange.

Well... It's just a strange, indescribable feeling...

After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Yan suddenly realized.

Isn't that the way a beast looks at its prey?

"Under ... It's Xu Yan. ”

Swallowing a mouthful of foam, Xu Yan plucked up his courage and said.

"Xu Yan, the word is timely. Right? ”

Hong Yan stared at Xu Yan tightly, giving the young man a strong sense of oppression.

Obediently, this aura is too powerful, right?

"Hmm... This is the word that my teacher helped me come up with. ”

"You're going to marry my sister?"

After a simple conversation, Xu Yan could determine why Hong Yang was acting so weird.

In short, Hong Yang regarded Hong Miaoyun as his beloved, and he was afraid of melting in the palm of his hand.

Of course, this love is brother and sister affection.

But the love is extremely deep, even the brother-in-law can't snatch love with a knife, let alone a quasi-brother-in-law.

It is not difficult to understand that there is a slight hostility in Hong Yan's eyes when he looks at Xu Yan.

"Xu and Ling Mei have exchanged Geng posts..."

Before Xu Yan finished speaking, Hong Yan shook his head and said, "You are too thin, even thinner than I imagined." ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but be stunned.

That's where it is.

Do you still take a body look at your brother-in-law?

Besides, isn't Xu Yan's figure the standard figure of the Great Ming Scholar?

There are a few people who can grow like Hong Ying.

Although the eldest brother is like a father, Hong Yang has the responsibility to check for Hong Miaoyun, but it is not so difficult.

Xu Yan is very aggrieved, very hurt, and very innocent!

But apparently Hong Yan didn't have this kind of awareness, and still stared at Xu Yan directly.

Xu Yan was stared at very uncomfortable, and said in a bad voice: "Young Master Hong, people can't be good-looking. This has the benefit of losing weight..."

"If my sister is bullied, can you stand out for him with your figure?"

Hong Yang directly dismantled the stage and said: "I know you want to refute me, saying that a scholar can study wholeheartedly or something like that, but you must not forget that there is also archery in the six arts of a gentleman." How many stones can you pull? ”

Xu Yan was speechless.

How can this future uncle be a bar. He had a hunch that the days ahead would not be too easy.

The six arts of the gentleman began in Zhouli, and by the Ming Dynasty, there was only an empty shell left.

How many scholars have nothing to do with bow-wielding?

But if you are more serious, what Hong Yang said is indeed fine.

"Brother Hong's words are wrong."

In this case, Xu Yan is not going to be polite, and is ready to have a debate with Hong Yan.

"At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu created a household registration system, and everyone in the world could be divided. Those who are craftsmen are good at crafting, and those who are military are good at dancing knives and guns. Naturally, scholars should work their studies. This is called a specialization in the art industry. What if Xu can pull the bow, can he compare with a military soldier? ”

Xu Yan actually rejected the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty, but there was no way to block Hong Yan's mouth, so Xu Yan could only move Lao Zhu out.

After all, even if Hong Yang is not satisfied, he cannot openly deny Emperor Taizu's national policy.

Sure enough, Hong Lu's mouth opened and closed, and he still couldn't think of a rebuttal for a long time.

"Even so, physical fitness is what students need."

Xu Yan was waiting for his words.

"How does Brother Hong know that I am not in good health?"

Xu Yan paused and said: "No matter how busy he is every day, Xu will find time to practice yoga. ”

Hong Yang was stunned.

"What is yoga?"

Xu Yan explained: "Yoga is a set of methods for self-cultivation and self-cultivation. Regular practice can not only strengthen the body, but also exercise the mind. ”

In fact, there was a saying about yoga in the Ming Dynasty.

But it's too niche for few people to understand.

Although Hong Yang is knowledgeable, it is impossible to know everything.

There are still many differences between yoga in the Ming Dynasty and modern yoga.

Xu Yan felt that he needed to give Hong Yang a yoga popularization and teach him some basic yoga movements by the way.

"There are eight branches of yoga practice, namely, taking vows, respecting actions, asanas, pranayama, mindfulness, concentration, concentration, and samadhi. ”

Xu Yan saw that Hong Yang was confused, and he was even more sure that he didn't know anything about yoga, and he was very proud.

"Taking vows is a precept that yogis must observe, including non-killing, honesty, non-theft, non-adultery, non-greed, etc. Only by doing this can you keep your mind in a state of stasis when doing yoga. ”

Xu Yan didn't give Hong Yan a chance to react at all, and said to himself: "The so-called respect includes purity, contentment, asceticism, recitation, and worship of God. ”

"The postures include the lotus seat, the hero seat, the auspicious seat, the vajra seat, the supreme good seat, etc..."

"Pranayama is about regulating and controlling the breath."

"Cardiochroma refers to suppressing all kinds of sensations so that they are completely controlled by the mind."

"Contemplation refers to the concentration of the mind on internal or external objects. It can be the eyes, mouth, tongue and nose, or the sun, moon and stars. ”

"Concentration, also known as meditation, unifies the mind with the object of concentration."

"As for samadhi, all changes and effects of the mind have been cut off."

After Xu Yan finished speaking in one breath, Hong Yan was obviously even more dizzy.

This cloudy and foggy rhetoric aroused Chen Zongzhi's interest, and he said on the side: "Good nephew, why don't you usually mention this yoga?" ”

Xu Yan hurriedly glanced at his uncle, and Chen Zongzhi was silent.

"Does this yoga really have all the benefits you say?"

Hong Yang was obviously not convinced.

"Brother Hong hasn't tried it, so naturally he won't believe it."

Xu Yan has already said this, so he simply added oil and vinegar.

"Why don't Brother Hong learn a few moves from me and judge one or two for yourself."

Hong Yang suddenly became interested and nodded lightly.

Xu Yan smiled faintly and said, "I'll make a simple move first." Brother Hong is optimistic, this action is called Xiaoqiao style. ”

Xu Yan said that he lay on his back on the ground, bent his knees, and slightly separated his feet. He took a deep breath and placed his hands at his sides, palms touching the ground. Raise your hips up and spread your collarbone. The thighs remain parallel and the lower legs perpendicular to the ground.

"Hold this position, breathe five to ten times, and you're ready to let go."

Xu Yan showed it, and Hong Yan also did the same as lying on his back.

Seeing this, Chen Zongzhi was unwilling to be lonely, and joined in.

Old Man Chen looked at the three young people so 'nonsense', his eyes were as wide as cowbells, but he didn't know what to say.

"Take a deep breath, lift, release... One more group. ”

Xu Yan started to be a free yoga instructor, although he felt a little lost in his heart, but given that one of these two was his uncle and the other was the future eldest brother, he had to admit it.

Soon Hong Yang realized the fun of yoga, and did several sets in a row, and he was very happy.

Chen Zongzhi accidentally flashed to his waist, but fortunately it was not too serious, and it was estimated that he would be fine after lying down for a day or two.

"How about Brother Hong, can this yoga still get into your eyes?"

Xu Yan said very proudly.
