Ryugo asked, "What's the problem?" ”

Zhen Huan said: "There is a saying that 'the thousand-year-old king is eighty-thousand-year-old turtle', the turtle has such a long life, we practice internal strength to dispel diseases and increase longevity, did we learn it from them?" ”

"Queen Mother, you are amazing!" Long Wu's eyes flashed.

"What's wrong?"

"You're right! Our cultivation of internal strength is really related to turtles! ”

"Huh?"

"My Taoist master told me a story about this."

"What's the story?"

Ryugo began to tell the story -

"In ancient times, there was a man named Zhang Guangding, who was in turmoil and wanted to avoid his homeland, and he had a daughter who was less than four years old, and he could not travel long distances with him, and he could not carry her on his back and flee with him.

He could only reluctantly abandon his daughter and let her starve to death, but he couldn't bear to expose her body.

It just so happened that there was a large ancient tomb on the edge of the village, and there was a dug cave on the top.

Zhang Guangding hung her with his daughter with tools, and gave her dry food and drinking water for a few months before leaving.

By the time the turmoil subsided, three years had passed, and Zhang Guangding returned to his hometown and wanted to go to the ancient tomb to clean up his daughter's bones and rebury her.

He lay on the top of the ancient tomb to see that his daughter was still alive, and he was worried that she was a ghost.

Zhang Guangding hurriedly went down to the tomb to observe nearby, and only then did he believe that she was not dead, so he asked her where she got her food.

The daughter said that she was very hungry when she first ran out of food, and then she saw an animal in the corner of the grave, stretching its neck to swallow the air, so she tried to imitate it, and gradually she became less hungry, and then she swallowed the air day and month.

Zhang Guangding began to look for what his daughter said, and it turned out to be a big turtle! ”

After Long Wu finished telling the story, Zhen Huan asked in surprise: "Long Wu, do you remember such a long story?" ”

Long Wudao: "What is this, when I was in Shaolin Temple, I recited Buddhist scriptures much longer than this." ”

Zhen Huan continued to ask, "By the way, is this story true?" ”

Long Wudao: "Of course it's true, Master said, this story is written in black and white in "Persona"!" ”

Zhen Huan immediately thought that it seemed that Feng Yi had brought a turtle from the earth, but the turtle was very small and usually didn't pay attention to it.

Zhen Huan has never been satisfied with learning knowledge and improving his potential, and he has not yet learned the internal skills taught by Long Wu, and he is about to learn the method of the little turtle spitting!

However, the turtle tuna is a legend after all, but the kung fu of Long Wu is witnessed with his own eyes, and the best strategy is-

Pay close attention to learning internal skills and keep an eye on the little turtle.

Zhen Huan said: "Let's start." ”

Long Wudao: "Choose a clean place, and then untie your clothes and ......"

Zhen Huan said: "This has been said. ”

Long Wudao: "I know I've talked about it, repeating it is just a reminder, this is very important!" Don't interrupt the queen mother. ”

"Okay, okay!" was taught a lesson by a little kid, Zhen Huan was speechless!

"After untying the loose clothes, sit quietly on the bed or sofa, straight, with the spine not bent and upright."

"Long Wu, there is no sofa here!" Zhen Huan reminded.

"I'm reciting a mantra taught by a Taoist master, so not having a sofa isn't the point, right?" Ryugo spoke like an adult.

"Okay, listen to Long Wu."

"Now we talk about the meditation posture, and there are seven main points for meditation -

The first point is bi-footed 趏趺 (jia fu).

For men, placing the left foot on the right leg and then the right foot on the left foot is called Vajra sitting.

For women, placing the right foot on the left leg and then the left foot on the right foot is called wishful sitting.

For beginners, it is difficult to do two-legged prostration, but one-legged prostrate is also possible, that is, just put one foot on the other. ”

Long Wu explained, and Zhen Huan made movements......

"Long Wu, is that so?" Zhen Huan easily came to his knees.

"Huh? So powerful? Mother, have you practiced? "This time, Ryugo was surprised.

"I haven't practiced, but since I was a kid in elementary school, I have a flexible body, and these movements are not difficult."

"Okay, let's move on to the second point, the spine.

Each cone of the spine, like beads stacked upright, is natural and upright, due to the habit caused by natural physiological bending, the lumbar cone is easy to protrude backwards when meditating, so it is necessary to pay attention to correction. ”

"No wonder!" Zhen Huan suddenly burst out.

"What did the queen mother say?"

I said, "No wonder! No wonder when on earth, so many people have cervical and lumbar spine discomfort, it turns out that it is caused by the wrong sitting posture! Long Wu, do you still need to understand the body structure to practice? ”

"Master Taoist said that people are a small universe, and practicing is like the cycle of the sun and the moon in the universe, of course, you must have an understanding of the body, especially the meridians, acupuncture points and skeleton."

Are people a small universe?

Zhen Huan feels that this sentence contains profound philosophical wisdom and has great enlightening significance for practicing internal skills.

"Mother, what are you thinking? Don't get distracted, go on? ”

"Go on, go on!"

"The third point, shoulder tension.

Once you are seated, your head is pushed up, and the entire spine is straightened up and slightly straightened

g. Open the shoulders, and then relax from top to bottom, so that the upper body is in a natural and straight state.

In this way, it is possible to achieve 'pine xio

G solid abdomen' effect, easy to achieve calm and calm. ”

After Long Wu finished the third point, Zhen Huan asked: "Long Wu, what you said about kneeling, straightening the waist, and spreading the shoulders is not to keep the inside of the body empty, like the sun and the moon in the sky, so that the qi and blood can run smoothly without any condensation." ”

Long Wu thought for a while and said: "Queen Mother, I don't understand this truth, you can understand it as you want, Taoist Master once told me that all the methods of internal cultivation are summarized by the ancients' thinking and experiments."

With so much wisdom in her mother's possession, she might be able to invent a better method of cultivation. ”

"Hehe, there's a lot of wisdom? Have it? Do I have one? Says who? ”

"Everyone says so, everyone says, except for the chief, here is the wisest queen mother."

"They're all nonsense! Ryugo, let's move on. ”

"The fourth point is that the hand is sealed.

For men, the right palm is placed on the left palm, and for women, the left palm is placed on the right palm, and the two thumbs are gently touched, which is naturally relaxed on the leg. ”

Zhen Huan began to follow Long Wu's actions again, and asked, "Long Wu, is that so?" ”

Long Wu said: "Queen Mother, take off the bird's feather clothes." ”

Zhen Huan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, I won't cultivate for the time being, I'm just learning the method." ”

Although Long Wu is a 6-year-old child, Zhen Huan still doesn't want to strip naked in front of him, this kid is very smart, in case he grows into a young man in the future, he still remembers it, how embarrassing it is!

"Queen Mother, I'm not asking you to practice now, I want to see your navel eyes......"

"What did you say?" Zhen Huan was shocked.

"I want to see the belly button of the queen mother!"

"What?"

"I don't see the position of the queen mother!"

"What position?"

"In the posture of the hand knot and seal, after the two queens are naturally relaxed and placed on the legs, it is necessary to ensure that the hands are placed under the navel and hold the navel."

"Hold your belly button? What is this action? Is belly button eye important? ”

"I don't know about this, it's just that the mantra says so."

Zhen Huan thought for a while and said: "When a person is a fetus, he obtains nutrition from the mother through the umbilical cord, and after birth, the navel has become a symbol of a person's independent mother.

This place should be an important node before and after the birth of a person!

When practicing, holding the navel with both hands should symbolize returning to simplicity, rejuvenation, and reversing death. ”

Long Wu didn't know what Zhen Huan was talking about, and continued: "Queen Mother, I am only responsible for reciting the formula, how to understand it specifically, you can slowly comprehend it yourself."

Let's move on to the fifth point, the right head.

That is, the head is not tilted, not crooked, and the chin is slightly adducted, but not bowed.

This not only helps the neck cone to be straight, but also slightly compresses the carotid artery, slows down physiological activities, reduces metabolism, and facilitates calming. ”

"Metabolism?" The queen suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Yes, what's wrong with the queen mother?"

Zhen Huandao: "From birth to death, it is a metabolic process, if the metabolism is reduced, you can prolong life, compress the carotid artery, slow down physiological activities, the ancients are really smart!" ”

"Queen Mother, let's go on, talk about sleeping well, it's too sleepy."

"Okay, let's go on."

"Sixth, the eyes are slightly closed.

That is, the eyes are ajar, so that you can see about three meters in front of the body, and the eyes can be fixed on the still life about a cubit in front of the body.

This still life should be small, monochrome, and simple in shape.

If you are easily distracted, you can close your eyes and leave only a glimmer of light, and if you are easily drowsy, you can open your eyes wide and look straight ahead. ”

"Long Wu, this is too difficult, people's eyes are either open or closed, neither open nor closed, if you don't die, it's very uncomfortable!"

"Queen Mother, this is practice, not dressing and eating, of course it's hard!

Speaking of the seventh point, the tongue licks the palate, and the front half of the tongue licks the palate, not with the tip of the tongue against the palate.

After the seven points of meditation have been explained, the queen mother will slowly understand, and I will go back to sleep. ”

"What about the back? Long Wu, let's finish it all at once, I remember. "Zhen Huan is worried about long nights and dreams, so it's best to finish it in one go.

"The queen mother, the person who practices martial arts, is the most jealous and impetuous, sooner or later I will teach the exercises, let me rest early, don't you know that children are sleepy a lot?"

"You ghost, let's go, let's go!"

After Long Wu left, Zhen Huan hurriedly began to practice according to the seven points of meditation.

Zhen Huan has already understood such a truth, only if he is strong in this world, he will not be controlled by others.
