Chapter Twenty-Seven: Today I Learned That I Was Not Me

In the bamboo forest, Huang Lao's voice was like a wave, and a set of "Nine Turns to Return Yang Qi Cultivation Method" slowly came out of his mouth, creating the most orthodox foundation for Wu Peng's Xinyi Fist.

Wu Peng sat on a stone bench and sat with only his left hip; The thighs are crossed on top of each other, the toes are up, and the elbows are close to the ribs.

His left arm is diagonally protected in front of his chest, his left palm is upward, his five fingers are open and the buckle is opened, and his right hand is also spread with five fingers. This rub, with the strength of the upper body pressing down, the right arm with the shoulder strap and the back and body pushed down in one go.

When the root of the right palm rubs the fingertips of the left palm, turn both hands to the right, and the right palm is pulled back with soft force, and the two palms are gently rubbed, so flip the palms and repeat the action.

The right palm falls together, the upper is to pull the hand, and the lower is to rub the handle. This is the most orthodox internal strength cultivation method of Xinyiquan.

At the same time, Wu Peng's eyes were on his nose, nose on his navel, and his eyes were fixed on his palms. With your tongue on top of your palate, you can breathe slowly with the movement of your palms. One pump is inhaling, and one rubbing is exhaling. Inhalation is weak energy, exhalation is real strength. The top of the head is erect, and you are engrossed.

As his breath rubbed, the wisps of energy in his body seemed to have a source, and began to open, close, bundle, expand, retract, and release regularly. Every part of his body, even every muscle, bone, blood vessel, etc., is endowed with a special rhythm with this movement. The muscles that were damaged by injuries and the five internal organs that were displaced by the earthquake all slowly recovered with this special rhythm......

After half an hour of dantian gong pranayama, Wu Peng only felt calm and calm, and the bottom of his tongue was full of relish. He slowly collected his strength, and let out a long breath of turbid air from his mouth.

This breath stinks, Wu Peng himself can smell it, and he can't help frowning and holding his breath. Huang Lao seemed to have expected this scene a long time ago, so he stood at the leeward in advance and looked at him with a smile.

"How does it feel?" Huang Lao asked.

Wu Peng pondered it carefully, and said with some doubts: "It's amazing." I followed the Qi collection method taught by your elder and combined it with the Dantian Gong, and my body seemed to fall into a very strange rhythm. Every movement, every breath and even every heartbeat of my heart felt like I was on a beat. ”

"It's like...... Everything about me became one. Wu Peng continued to taste, "I can even feel the pores faintly. This feeling makes me a little reluctant to stop. But what is the principle of this? ”

"Practicing dantian gong is addictive." Huang Lao Ruo said meaningfully. "Taoism emphasizes the unity of heaven and man, and Buddhism emphasizes silence, in fact, they are all talking about one thing. Although your state just now is still far from the unity of heaven and man, you have actually faintly touched the threshold. ”

Wu Peng smacked his lips and shook his head: "I don't understand, this is too mysterious, it sounds like a myth." ”

"Hehe......" Huang Lao smiled, "Then let's talk about something practical, did you feel the existence of qi just now?" ”

Wu Peng thought about it seriously and said with certainty: "Not at all." ”

"Actually, you feel it." Huang Lao said, "It's just that it lurks in your consciousness, and it becomes that you have me, I have you, and you can't tell the difference." ”

"Why does it sound so infiltrating?" Wu Peng's eyes widened, "What do you mean, this anger is still alive?" ”

"Of course it's alive." Huang Lao said as a matter of course, "If you die of anger, you will be finished." ”

"But according to what you said, this innate true qi is innate, and it has always controlled the instinct and operation of my body." Wu Peng felt creepy, "In other words, my body is actually in charge of it." So who is the owner of this body, me or it? ”

"Strictly speaking, it's not you, it's Qi." Huang Lao smiled and pointed at Wu Peng, "Compared with the innate innocence of true qi, your self-consciousness is the latecomer, and it is gradually born and grown with the growth of your body. Therefore, you are a parasite of the body, and the innate true qi is the person of Allah. ”

"Hiss......" Wu Peng gasped in horror and said incredulously, "This, this is too alarmist, isn't it?" I've lived for more than 20 years, and my body wasn't originally mine? ”

"That's just the way it is." Huang Lao smiled, "Let me ask you, when you think back to the past, you can see yourself, so whose gaze are you using?" Who was watching you at the time? ”

Wu Peng's heart was frightened, and he was extremely frightened when he thought about it.

"And when you say a word in your heart, whose voice do you use?" Huang Lao continued to ask him.

Wu Peng immediately recited "Who am I" in his heart, and then "Who are you", but what made him so frightened that his hair almost stood on end was that these two sentences not only had different tones and tones, but even their emotions seemed to be different!

No way! Whose voice is this? What the hell!

"Haha!" Huang Lao saw that he scared Wu Peng enough, so he stopped teasing him and revealed the truth: "The so-called innate true qi is actually unconscious, and everything it does comes from you. So you don't have to worry about it robbing you. ”

"For example, if you are angry, your heart will beat faster and your body will heat up. For example, if you are afraid, the hairs will stand up and the blood will circulate faster. Even if you don't do anything, don't think about anything, and your innate true qi maintains your body faithfully for you, what do you have to worry about? ”

"But, but, ......" Although Wu Peng's mood was a little relaxed, he still had an indescribable awkwardness.

"You've grown so big, didn't you come here when you didn't know it?" Huang Lao smiled, "What's more, now that you are practicing boxing and dantian gong, aren't you planning to refine this breath?" ”

"That's right!" Wu Peng finally came out of the tip of the horns and breathed a sigh of relief. "When I finish my kung fu, my body will be completely in charge of my body."

"That's it." Huang Lao said with emotion, "In fact, our inner boxing originated in the Song Dynasty, and the root is the thought of Buddhism, but it uses the Taoist method of refining qi to lay the foundation, which can be described as a miscellaneous family." ”

"The essence of Neijiaquan lies in a strong word, which is emitted by innate true qi. So we're going to refine it. The so-called internal training of a breath and external training of muscles and bones is said to be this truth. Huang Lao said, "But earlier, only people with no talent and no future would learn Neijiaquan, and those who were talented went to learn real martial arts." ”

"Martial arts?" Wu Peng was surprised, "Is it the kind of martial art that can fly on the wall?" ”

"Exactly." Huang Lao nodded, "Martial arts and internal boxing take two completely different paths. The principle of martial arts is to strengthen the innate true qi, and absorb the acquired true qi through the internal strength, which is called internal force. The stronger the internal force, the more powerful it is. This is to enter the Tao with art, and the requirements for talent and root bones are extremely high. ”

"But geniuses are only a few after all, and those sages who have no talent and have a heart for martial arts have simply opened up another way. That is, not to strengthen the innate true qi, but to refine it and collect it for its own use, so there is an inner fist. ”

"The inner fist practice, coupled with dantian gong, emphasizes the unity of body and mind, which is a real skill. This is to enter the Tao with skills, although it also talks about talent and roots, but in fact, even ordinary people, as long as they are willing to work hard and have understanding, it is possible to practice to the peak realm. ”

"After these hundreds of years of inheritance, martial arts have long become a thing of the past, but internal boxing is still thriving. This shows that Neijiaquan is more suitable for inheritance, while martial arts are outdated. There is no need to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. ”

After listening to Huang Lao's tirade about martial arts and internal boxing, Wu Peng only felt that his brain was wide open and he was shocked to the extreme!

The original strength of the inner fist has made him sigh at the wonder of the human body. I didn't expect that the legendary martial arts really existed!

That's a legendary martial art! What Ling Bo Weibu, what Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending, Nine Yin True Scripture, even if there is no such martial arts, there will be similar! Now it seems that these are really traceable!

Thinking of this, Wu Peng suddenly remembered a swordsmanship in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" that is known as breaking the world's martial arts - Dugu Nine Swords.

Dugu Nine Swords can be urged without internal force, this is not a technique, but a skill!

So does it mean that in fact, Dugu Jiujian also belongs to the category of equipment and techniques of internal boxing?

So does it mean that in fact, as long as the realm is reached, the inner fist can also be so powerful that it can compete with the heroes of the martial arts world like Dugu Jiujian?

Or even more?
