Chapter Eighty-Eight: Internal Cultivation and External Refinement
What people lack, they think.
The mind is free, and what you want is nothing more than doing what you want and following your heart.
This is Gao Han's impression when he created the exercise and named it.
However, as far as the introductory exposition of this set of exercises is concerned, it really has a little taste.
Yin and yang, both internal and external. The combination of movement and static, the connection of the heart.
The sixteen-character general outline explains that this is a set of exercises that can be both inside and out.
The specific cultivation method varies according to the individual's physique, which is called teaching according to aptitude.
At least the set of cultivation procedures formulated by Gao Han for Lu Changqing is completely different from traditional boxing.
The first is the packing.
Refining the root and cultivating spirituality is the method of internal cultivation, which is mainly based on breathing.
In this process, the mind is meditated, and the spiritual platform is clear.
Then the minor is to guard the three caves of dust, the tongue is on the top of the mouth, the qi is through the dantian, and the levator is anal and the valley.
In the quiet room, Lu Changqing sat cross-legged on the hard wooden bed, looking relaxed, but in fact his whole body was tense.
The so-called guarding the three caves of dust, the operation, is to put the tongue against the top of the mouth.
Then the qi sinks below the lower abdomen, above the waist, near the navel.
As the name suggests, the levator anus is very simple, the anus is lifted up, and the butt is clamped.
The three movements, done individually, are very simple, even if they are combined, ordinary people can sit down.
But it's hard to put them together, do them at the same time, and stick to them for at least half an hour.
According to him, the step of guarding the three caves is used to practice the breath inside the body. Don't let it come out of the mouth and nose, not from the valley, but through the dantian, temper and suppress it, and quench out a breath of innate qi. ”
"It's a bit metaphysical!"
Lu Changqing tensed his body, and subconsciously thought that if he persisted like this, he would not know that innate qi.
At least I won't get hemorrhoids, anal fistulas, or anything.
Bang!
With a finger flicked on his forehead, Lu Changqing involuntarily let go of that breath, and the whole person was like falling apart, lying on the bed, panting heavily.
Gao Han stood beside him, shaking his head and saying nothing.
Lu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief and realized that he might have done something wrong.
"Please ask the master for advice!"
Gao Han didn't take it seriously, and said directly: "This step of rooting, guarding the three caves of dust is the method of internal cultivation, but it is a minor. The real major, as I said before, is to meditate and concentrate and keep the spiritual platform clear. For you, the age of 20 is the stage when you are uncertain and have a lot of distractions. Packing is the foundation you have to lay well. ”
"But obviously, when you were cultivating internally, you thought about other things."
Seeing Lu Changqing's surprised appearance, Gao Han pointed to his sore legs and back.
"It seems to be relaxed, but in fact it is tight, although it has the effect of accumulating strength, but what is the difference between it and the bow that is always open."
Gao Han shook his head, "I'll practice here today, and you can practice outside tomorrow morning!" ”
"Well, then I'll go back first."
Lu Changqing also knew that this kind of thing was not in a hurry, others fused things for a lifetime, and he wanted to learn to go for a few days, it would be too cheap.
There is no such cheap thing in the world, you can only take it step by step.
"Wait!"
Lu Changqing moved his legs and feet and looked back at Gao Han.
"Tomorrow the Red Light Warhammer will move."
"About Anyue Town?" Lu Changqing asked directly.
Gao Han nodded, "Yes, Liyang City must be taken back, but Anyue Town is between the Black Flag and Liyang, and if you don't pull out this town, it will always be a trouble." Tomorrow, the base will arrange for the transcendent to clear Anyue Town. ”
At this, he paused.
"I'll go too! But you don't have to go, the sniper of the red light has arrived, and there is no shortage of you. ”
Lu Changqing said with a smile: "This may be because I'm afraid that I'm going to grab the merits!" ”
Gao Han also showed a knowing smile, Anyue Town is quite dangerous, but that is only relative to the former Black Flag base.
With the strength of the Red Light Warhammer now, it is really simple to uproot such a small town.
"I'm going to evaluate the performance of the three generations of Scarlet in the city positively, and I'm a little familiar with the situation. As for you, stay at the base and get more familiar with the serpentine while you have time. Don't worry, when you get started, I'll give you the written boxing book. ”
"Well, thank you, master."
"Then there you go!"
It has been two days since I apprenticed to Gao Han.
In the past two days, the other party told Lu Changqing about the general situation of the Mind Freedom Gong and the cultivation method.
Internal cultivation, external refining and playing!
What he did just now was internal cultivation, and it had already been done twice before and after, which was not ideal.
Gao Han felt that it had something to do with Lu Changqing's age.
But his family knows his own affairs, and Lu Changqing understands very well that in the past twenty-two years, he has experienced the outbreak of the earth's Internet wave, crossing the blue star, and stepping into the ancient stone gate to come to this eternal dark world.
There are too many things accumulated in his mind, and if he wants to have a clear mind and a clean spiritual platform, it is really not something that can be done in a while.
Internal cultivation cannot be forced, but can only be taken slowly.
It's the method of external refining, and Lu Changqing likes it very much.
The method of refining the mind freely is called the "Ten Forms".
As the name suggests, it is to imitate the ten animal forms and make various movements.
Although man is the chief of all things, in the process of evolution, in order to adapt to the requirements of survival and reproduction, he either evolved or degenerated, and selectively created the current body.
This body type is naturally the best, but in some points, it is not as good as the animal's specialty.
Explosiveness, speed, flexibility, hardness, strength, etc., many animals, there are places where they surpass humans.
Imitating animal exercises can maximize the potential of the human body.
In fact, this method is taken into account in many traditional boxing techniques in the United States of China.
For example, Xingyi Fist has 12 shapes, and Liuyang Palm has 6 Yang True Spirits and so on.
Gao Han took ten kinds of animals, including dragons, snakes, eagles, harriers, chickens, swallows, tigers, horses, bears, and monkeys.
Compared with other types of boxing, it is impossible to talk about which is better or worse, because these ten forms are mainly used to cooperate with the cultivation of special acupuncture points.
These acupuncture points are the foundation of the method of external refining.
Relying on these acupuncture points, it is possible to drum up the whole body and stimulate the power of qi and blood.
In this way, without awakening Gao Han's qi and blood ability, he can also master his qi and blood skills.
After the first external refining, Lu Changqing imitated the snake's movements.
Although he had not stimulated qi and blood, he could clearly feel that there had been a slight change in himself.
For example, the most intuitive energy level!
Previously, after experiencing the enhancement of two bottles of second-order genetic elixir and the overall improvement of ability awakening, his energy level rose to 28.
And after the first external refining yesterday, the energy level broke through to twenty-nine.
This is a very sensitive number!
Standing at the top of the second-order transcendental, one step forward, it will be the top combat power in this world, third-order!
Of course, at present, Gao Han, who has already reached the fourth order, can be regarded as the top.
But even if it's a third-order, it's still a first-class level.
"If I continue to exercise and master a few more forms, is it possible for me to break through the energy level of thirty without taking a third-order potion?"
Lu Changqing made this guess and gave a positive affirmation.
"Quite possibly!"
"Gao Han ......"
His thoughts were broken, and Lu Changqing continued to think as he walked: "Master, he obviously didn't take the fourth-order medicine, so he relied on his own strength to break through forty. Then I can totally do it too! ”
If you become a third-order transcendent, then melee self-preservation is safer.
And the remote .....
Suddenly, Lu Changqing frowned.
As I walked on, my perceptual abilities diverged.
Four hundred meters on the right, in the alley, someone is observing himself and keeping a relative movement as he moves.
