Chapter 757: Fetal Breath

How to say, this method, I have heard before, especially in the Taoist martial arts masters, many of them have this ability at different levels, which has something to do with the different concepts of different schools, if I remember correctly, in some martial arts, there are similar discussions.

In the exercises that my grandfather told me, it is said that most people's strength comes from the nutrition brought by the grains, and the strength generated by the limbs from this nutrition is called mixed yuan force, and above the mixed yuan force, there is also an innate force, which is much more advanced than the mixed yuan force, but it is difficult to practice and difficult to control.

A person who practices this kind of kung fu is not only a boy who has never touched a woman's whole body, but also needs to have two necessary kung fu as a foundation, one is to eat qi in the valley, and the second is called fetal breath gong.

Interestingly, this fetal breathing exercise, just like Bigu food qi, is one of the secret methods of Taoism, practice, but also their own body functions, friends who have an understanding of martial arts believe that they will know that in martial arts, the two most basic breathing methods are abdominal breathing and reverse abdominal breathing.

When you inhale, your stomach bulges outward, which is called abdominal breathing, on the contrary, when you inhale, your stomach is deflated and your chest is bulging outward, which is called reverse abdominal breathing, and in addition to these two breathing methods, there is another one, which is what we just said, "fetal breath".

Taoists believe that all things in heaven and earth, at the very beginning, are the truest, the most simple, and the best, the baby in the placenta, through the skin and umbilical cord to absorb nutrients, and gradually grow into an adult, but after the person is born, the umbilical cord is cut, and begins to give birth to teeth, and the guò takes external grains to maintain their own life.

Some people believe that this changed way of life is a very important reason for people to go to aging and disease, so some people propose that the state of the fetus, when there is no breathing and no need to eat food, is the best way for a person to live in the world. The two secret methods of fetal breath and Bigu food qi were born and developed under such a large background.

In fact, the special breathing method of fetal breathing is not only unique to China, but also popular in ancient India and parts of Southeast Asia.

Some people may know that in recent years, a very influential exercise called yoga, which is a fitness system that can quickly cultivate temperament and relieve stress, but in the beginning, yoga in ancient times was an out-and-out kind of kung fu.

When practiced to the extreme, this kind of kung fu will produce a strange effect similar to that of Chinese innate gong, and people who practice yoga will gradually get rid of the shackles of cardiopulmonary function and can use their skin and anus to breathe air.

China, which is slightly different from theirs but does not go beyond the range, is to practice a series of exercises, gradually reduce the burden on the lungs, let their navel as a method to bear the role of breathing, and then spread to several major points up and down the body, and then gradually let a person's body up and down can be used to breathe.

People who can reach this realm, generally speaking, can completely abandon the lung as an organ and fully realize the communication between the inside and outside of the limbs, back then, the Dan Daoqi Ge Hong once wrote in a book, saying, "Those who have fetal breath can not breathe with their nose and mouth, such as in the fetus." ”

More important than this is that, according to legend, if you achieve positive results, then a person who is proficient in the two spells of Fetal Breath Gong and Bigu Method can unload the acquired power and obtain the innate power, becoming a higher dimensional existence that is above normal people.

Although there is no clear statement to prove this, from my understanding, people who can master these two secret methods at the same time are not far from the realm of "human immortals" as Taoists say.

But this kind of spell is not perfect, you can see the state of the old man next to him, looking at the old man's appearance, skinny, I am afraid that I don't know how many years I haven't eaten, it is said that it is Bigu food qi, but qi can maintain his life, but can not provide him with enough glucose and protein, too persistent in this way, it is bound to end up in a malnourished end.

Besides, if you don't breathe, you don't eat, you don't eat, you don't drink, you don't speak, you don't speak, you don't breathe or move, you just sit on a futon and pretend to be a living dead.

After the emergence of the Neidan faction, this more partial-way cultivation method has been criticized, generally speaking, everyone is cultivating with the attitude of trying it out, and it is really not easy to reach the realm of the old man around him.

Thinking of this, I felt curious in my heart, and while the old man still had a few hours of longevity, I sat cross-legged beside him and asked about the mystery of this fetal breathing gong and the Bigu method.

After hearing this, the other party waved his hand with little interest, and did not tell me the truth, and said to me in the attitude of a person who came over: "Heaven and earth, people, ghosts and gods, everything in the world is divided into species, since there is a difference, it naturally has his reason, and a mind that crosses the boundary and wants to ask for the way of immortality has lost the opportunity and is difficult to understand." When the old man was young, he really learned a lot of skills, but after so many years of practice, he finally realized that most of the time, he had wasted his time and left no good thoughts. When people get old, the most uncomfortable thing is not to think about what they did wrong when they were young, but that there are no memories left in their hearts in this life. The old people say that life and death have a fate, wealth is in the sky, some things are not controlled by manpower, just like the old man at this time, who has practiced the Tao for so many years, and can be regarded as an achievement, but what kind of result will end up in the end, it is still not clear. It's good if you get to become an immortal, but if you lose, you don't even have a descendant to clean up the bones, think about it, it's really miserable enough. ”

The other party said, turned his head to look at me, and then asked, "Boy, are you also interested in the matter of becoming an immortal?" ”

"Nope." Shaking my head, I said.

"Not at all?" Slightly stunned, the old man said with a smile.

"At the beginning, there were, and then I encountered more things, this kind of thought did not appear again, although I am not very old, but all kinds of people have met a lot, there are those who hope to become immortals, and there are those who pray for immortality, but most of them are stuck in the middle of the road without a good death. In today's situation, my condition is not bad, although I am not rich, but I am not worried about food and clothing, since the people I care about and the people who care about me are not bad, then, what else is there to force? ”
