Chapter 34: Changes in Health Preservation Exercises and Small Aids
Zong Xian heard Qi Yunyan call Aunt Wang in a clear voice in the house, and his heart suddenly settled down a lot.
After a while, Aunt Wang came to the house, after this period of getting along, she had already regarded Zong Xian as a close junior, only to see a sincere smile on her slightly chubby face, and hurriedly walked to the bedside, shushing the cold and asking to warm up.
"Ah Xian, are you feeling better?"
Zong Xian let out a hoarse "um".
saw Aunt Wang pat her forehead.
"Oh, I forgot, your blood fever is still not gone, and it's inconvenient to speak!"
"But everyone is awake, which means that the knot of the Divine Court has been opened!"
"That's a good sign!"
"Hey, I'm going to get the master!"
Aunt Wang seems to be just an ordinary honest and healthy woman on the surface, but in fact, she has a lot of knowledge in martial arts.
She stretched out her hand and put it on Zong Xian's cheek affectionately, and then left the house in a hurry.
After a full meal, Qi Zhishang rushed back.
He didn't have the "old man's clothes" for daily travel, but a gray long coat, wearing light cloth shoes on his feet, and when he walked into the house, there was dust rising, and he looked dusty, and he didn't know what to do.
"Ah Xian!"
After Master Qi saw Zong Xian wake up, his eyes also lit up.
He sat on the edge of the bed, and the first thing he did was to reach out and take the pulse of Zong Xian.
"Yes, the disordered qi and blood are recovering, and the damage to the internal organs and meridians is also healing rapidly!"
"In the end, it's a strong inhuman, it's really unusual!"
"On the contrary, the bone wound on the arm needs to be recuperated for a longer period of time."
With that, he turned around and shouted.
"Aunt Wang, go and bring a bowl of herbal tea boiled with mint houttuynia cordata!"
"Yes, sir!"
……
It didn't take long for a bowl of herbal tea to be served, and it seemed that it was prepared on the premise, obviously everything was in Master Qi's arrangement.
Master Qi personally moistened his lips with herbal tea on the back of a spoon, and a trace of cold water slid into his mouthpiece, making him feel that the heat in his chest, lungs, and trachea was suppressed, and he became neat when he tried to speak.
Aunt Wang and Qi Yunyan were both guarding the door, and only the master and apprentice were left in the house.
"Master..."
Zong Xian called softly, and Qi Shi just waved his hand.
"Ah Xian, time is pressing, you listen to the teacher first."
"In the past two days, there have been inner city catchers staring at the outside of the martial arts hall, and it is estimated that the news of your awakening will soon spread to the yamen."
"The teacher will help you delay a little longer."
"Your current realm is not yet able to cultivate your own family's internal strength, but you can already barely cultivate health preservation skills."
"Now for the teacher to pass on a mantra of health preservation, combined with the visualization of breathing, you should be able to get started in a month or two."
"If the head catcher in the inner city comes to inquire, you only need to silently exercise to collect most of the qi and blood in your body."
With that, he took out from his bosom a leather cloth that seemed to have been tanned to a very thin level, on which a turtle and a crane were depicted in a red cinnabar pen perched on the edge of a water, as if fighting.
"For the teacher, I want to pass on your health preservation skills called the turtle and crane gurgling water technique, which is one of the true health maintenance skills of the master's Yueshan dojo, this is the internal strength visualization map..."
"Ah Xian, listen up!"
"The head is like a silkworm, the mouth and belly are like a piano, the two wings are chirping without chirping, the gurgling water is like a meridian, and the exhalation is long and can prolong life..."
……
Zong Xian stared at the visualization map and silently memorized the mantra in his heart.
The first half of the mantra is more like to fit the artistic conception and achieve the effect of visualization and thoughts, and the second half is the real method of exhaling luck.
To put it in layman's terms, it is the breathing method with the specific operation of qi and blood, and at the same time, the mind must enter the artistic conception and maintain the state of visualization.
After a little attempt, he easily felt a slight sensation in his lower abdomen.
"It's not difficult to get started with this skill, but if you want to practice to the point of perfection, it will take many years of water grinding kung fu, and daily practice can soothe qi, blood and strength, and achieve the effect of prolonging life!"
"Have you written down all the visualization diagrams?" Qi Shi asked solemnly.
Zong Xian nodded and replied, "I have written down Master!" ”
"Good! I'm going to buy you some time again! ”
After speaking, he got up to leave, but was stopped by Zong Xian.
"Master, who was the mysterious person who helped me that night...?"
This question made Qi Shi raise his eyebrows, he gave Zong Xian an intriguing look, and finally said nothing.
However, Zong Xian had the answer in his heart.
He has always been a decisive person, and instead of continuing to delve into it, he closed his eyes and visualized the turtle and crane water map, while adjusting his breathing and qi and blood to breathe.
After about a stick of incense, Zong Xian's body practiced a rotating air mass the size of a jujube core, and this skill was indeed an excellent beginner.
Although the true qi of the health maintenance gong cannot be refined and transformed into strength like the true qi of the martial arts internal strength, it can still play a role in nourishing and rejuvenating!
Before he had time to feel it, Zong Xian suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.
It's not that there's anything wrong with the turtle and crane's murmuring trick, but that a small assistant prompt suddenly appeared in his mind.
【Health Maintenance: Turtle and Crane Murmuring Trick Completion Introduction】
[Mystery Chance Analysis Time Fixed Reduction of 30 Days]
……
The appearance of these two tips lifted Zong Xian's spirits!
"It turns out that practicing health preservation can actually reduce the analysis time of chances!"
Thinking of this, his heart moved, calling for "mysterious chance".
A small auxiliary interface that I hadn't paid attention to for a long time slowly emerged.
【Mysterious Chance】
[Current Opportunity Range: 50 miles away]
[Countdown to chance analysis: 11:23:09 on the 7th]
[Martial arts: Jumping Mountain Long Fist (remnant) (37% of the first glimpse of the door), hand-throwing hidden weapon (13% of the slight success)]
[Internal strength: turtle and crane murmuring water trick (beginner practice 7%)]
【???? 】
【???? 】
……
[Mysterious Chance] This little support has undergone a lot of changes.
Not only has there been progress in internal and external work, but there has also been a blank function that is not shown.
The most important thing is that he knows that practicing internal strength seems to be able to fix and reduce the analysis time of chance, but for the time being, he is not sure whether martial arts internal strength has a similar effect.
Either way, it's good news.
Originally, he still had to wait for more than a month to complete the second [Mysterious Chance], but now it only takes a little more than seven days, and as long as he continues to practice health cultivation, the number of days of fixed analysis time will be further reduced in the future.
This is equivalent to indirectly improving the efficiency of his access to opportunities!
"That's good!"
Master Qi passed on that the main purpose of this health preservation skill was to restrain qi and blood, so as not to cause suspicion that the head catcher in the inner city would notice the qi and blood in his body.
But I didn't expect Zong Xian to reap an unexpected joy!
He suppressed the restlessness in his heart and continued to practice with his eyes closed, and he had to practice as much True Qi as possible before the head catcher arrived.
At that time, as long as the true qi in the body is operated, the qi and blood in the meridians will be silent, and as long as the qi and blood are not deliberately agitated during this period, no flaws will be exposed!
In this way, Zong Xian endured his injuries and cultivated like this.
