When you enter the lobby, sandalwood is lit inside, and warmth wafts out from it. The entire lobby has wooden floors – and once inside, the entire spa is covered with wooden floors. In addition to sandalwood, the whole space is also filled with a solid wood aroma. There were a few little monks sitting in the corner, reading a book there, with a mop next to them. Every once in a while, the little monks would mop the ground here to keep it dry and clean.

Although Longchang Temple is now socially operated. However, there are still monks "practicing" in the places where monks can be used here. Mopping the floor is practice, cooking is practice, burning a boiler is also practice, and rubbing your back is also practice.

"I've got a suggestion for you." Wen Yuan suppressed his voice, "Try not to experience back rubbing." ”

"Why?" Shang Luo asked, "I'm about to try it." ”

"The master who rubs his back here has practiced qigong. Very powerful. Although it is not an internal kung fu like us, it is a very powerful external hard qigong. There are a few even retired forbidden soldiers, because they kill people like hemp, and they have practiced here for thousands of years, taking pleasure in rubbing people's baths. They will randomly appear in the men's bathhouse when they have free time. ”

"Sounds like, you've rubbed it?"

"Contemptible. When I was a child, I was unfortunately rubbed. I felt like someone had been hung up and beaten - but it was true that the meridians were unblocked after rubbing. It is of great use to those who practice martial arts. It's just that those masters come to rub their backs when they are in the mood, and they usually can't ask for it. ”

"Then I really want to try it. Want money? ”

"Don't want money. The bath fee of Longchang Temple is paid when you enter the door, and there is no additional charge inside, as long as you don't waste it. But do you really use a scrub? You are already a celestial body, right, do you still need a master who cultivates hard qigong to regulate your meridians? ”

"Well, I feel that all kinds of guidance will be useful." He glanced over there. His wallet has already been given to Phaethon, and Phaethon is doing the formalities over there, so he can just sit here.

"I just have a question I want to ask - what is hard qigong?"

"Hard qigong is foreign kung fu."

"And what is foreign kung fu?"

"Hmm" Wen Yuan glanced at Han Xingzhi next to him, and both of them shook their heads.

"Let's put it this way, big brother. Both of us practice the inner family exercises, and we don't know how to practice the external exercises. However, it is said that there are also people who can reach the same level as the foundation building period by practicing external skills, which is hard to say. But in a broad sense, the benefit of hard qigong is that it can be learned by all. Regardless of whether you have talent or not, as long as you are hung out of radish when you are a child, even a trace of spiritual root can be used to practice hard qigong. ”

"Actually, Lu Liang also practiced this before." Wen Yuan added, "It's just that she got the help of Wudang Shangjing Haishitai, and she suddenly opened her mind, so she was able to enter Wudang." In addition, if you look at the number of Jinyi Guards, in fact, in addition to those handymen, the number of operators is still a lot more than the number of Qi practitioners. Because practicing hard qigong can also enter Jinyiwei, after all, we are not a cultivator here, we are here to work for the imperial court. As long as you can serve the imperial court, regardless of the exercises, the imperial court will collect them all. ”

"So that's the case, are there so many people who practice hard qigong?"

"That's too many, millions, because the forbidden army, the navy, and the Cypriot army, as long as they join the army, they will train. In fact, there is an implicit criterion: when training, a little spiritual root will be recruited. Therefore, our armies of all walks of life are all practitioners in the strict sense, not mortals. At least they have practiced hard qigong, and it is not a big problem to resist a march of dozens of catties. So you also saw that day at the shooting range, our guns are larger than the barbarians in terms of caliber. ”、

"Ah, in that case, can I do something for them too?"

All along, Shang Luo's eyes have always been focused on the Qi Practitioner and on the inner door. But in this way, it seems that the people who practice outer kung fu account for the absolute majority of all "cultivators" - although most of them don't know that they are cultivating.

"Then how many people do you have in the total population?"

"Actually, 95 percent of people have that talent. We've delivered the 'turnips' to almost everywhere we can, and almost everyone has eaten them, and everyone can get a little bit of fairy root. It's just that practicing hard qigong is still quite a painful process after all, and we can't let everyone practice it. It's just that if you come to sign up as a soldier, you are ready to endure hardships, so you will unify the training of hard qigong - hard qigong also has a little benefit, that is, its cultivation and testing have a complete set of rules, unlike us who are mysterious and mysterious, only a master who is higher than a realm can fully grasp the situation. ”

"Hmm," Shang Luo touched his chin.

"What are you thinking?"

"I feel that the big plan in the future can be started from here. If it is based on the fact that the vast majority of people have a certain spiritual root, this matter will be much easier. ”

As he spoke, Phaethon over there also opened a ticket.

"Alright, you three, put on your hand."

The brand is jade. The things in this temple are all good things, and the bath fee is quite high. If it weren't for the celebration this time, Shang Luo wouldn't have spent any money bringing all his acquaintances here.

The two sides greeted each other, and the men on the left and the women on the right entered from both sides.

"Wow" changed into a bathrobe, and Shang Luo walked out of the locker room—it was not what he had imagined. He thought it was mostly an enclosed bathroom, but he didn't expect it to be open.

A variety of baths are scattered across half of the mountain. A guide board is written on the side, and everything from the recipe to the temperature of the hot springs is written separately. At the highest point, there is a hot spring with a temperature of up to 48 degrees Celsius, which is the kind that ordinary people will burn when they go in, and there is a hot spring that directly supplies water there.

"My grandfather was probably there."

"Wow, your grandfather is pretty good."

"It's not as high as 45°C." Wen Yuan waved his hand, "It's really 48°C, and the person is not all familiar." It's just 48°C at the inlet, and the temperature of the whole pool is about 42°C to 43°C. ”

"That's hot, too!"

"Old man, he's not that sensitive to temperature. I just saw that many of the Cabinet's cars have passed, and most of the old men of the Cabinet are soaking there today. Let's just walk around. ”

"Do you have any recommendations?"

"Yes, yes, there is a slide over there, I loved going there when I was a kid. There's a heated pool down there, so go there. There's a jump next to the slide, and we can climb up the jump and, you know? ”
