In order to take the thread-bound ancient book, Li Mingshan already had half of his body in the passage, and at this moment, as soon as Li Mingshan gritted his teeth, the whole person quickly rushed into the passage that was only half a person high, and the iron door was immediately closed. It didn't take half a second from the time it entered until the iron door closed. Obviously...... Li Mingshan has practiced this move many times.

"Whew, whew. ”

Hiding in a small secret room that was only two or three square meters, Li Mingshan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Lao Tzu has been prepared, I believe he won't kill me? Li Mingshan sneered.

Li Mingshan had already thought about what he would do if someone wanted to kill him. This small chamber contained many items such as bank cards to attract the killer, and he himself escaped in.

No matter when, Li Mingshan only believes in himself.

It is precisely because of this almost watertight preparation that Li Mingshan has not fallen for more than 20 years.

"Hum~~" Suddenly, the wide, five-centimeter-thick steel plate iron door flew towards him suddenly.

The five-centimeter-thick steel plate iron door is impossible for even a bullet to penetrate. It's that if Teng Qingshan wants to rely on brute force to break through this steel plate and iron gate, I'm afraid he will have to gather momentum to play the most fierce 'Tiger Cannon Fist', but he doesn't need to do this, because ...... The difficulty of breaking the latch is very low.

A figure swooped in.

"Brother, you ......" Li Mingshan even wanted to speak.

"Poof. A very slight sound, a hole in blood appeared in the position of his temple.

Li Mingshan's eyes were round, motionless, and there was unwillingness in his eyes.

Teng Qingshan didn't even look at him, turned his head and left quietly.

Teng Qingshan's rented house in the living room.

"I don't know what this "Thousand Years of Chronicles" is about, this Liu Yan is indeed a generation of grandmasters during the Republic of China, I know this. Teng Qingshan was curious from the bottom of his heart, practicing internal boxing, naturally, Teng Qingshan also knew something about some famous figures in history.

Liu Yan, nicknamed 'Liu Shen Monkey', is a rare great master of the Monkey Boxing faction, and his status was equal to that of Sun Lutang and others in the 'Tiger Head Shaobao'.

Since it was written by Liu Yan, Teng Qingshan naturally had the motivation to watch it.

Open this "Thousand Chronicles", the text in it is traditional Chinese. Because many ancient books are in traditional Chinese characters, Teng Qingshan was taught by 'Teng Bolei', and Teng Boley also lived abroad, and he knew traditional Chinese characters, so he naturally taught Teng Qingshan to write in traditional Chinese characters. Reading this traditional Chinese book, Teng Qingshan did not have the slightest difficulty.

"I really don't know that this willow monkey is actually a thief. ”

Teng Qingshan flipped through it quickly, because almost all of the things told in front of this "Thousand Years of Chronicles" were some things in the history of the Thief Sect. About a third of the way through the pages, Teng Qingshan began to stop. Because the title of this chapter turned out to be - the millennium evolution of martial arts.

"According to the historical records of my Thief Gate and the martial arts chronicle I discovered, I found that from ancient times to the present, there are fewer and fewer people who have reached the realm of grandmasters, and it has become more and more difficult. ”

Teng Qingshan couldn't help nodding secretly when he saw this.

"Also, the history of Neijiaquan, although the major sects have falsely claimed to have a thousand years, in fact, the longest history of Neijiaquan 'Taijiquan' was also created by Zhang Sanfeng of Wudang in the Ming Dynasty, which is less than a thousand years ago. I have a history of 5,000 years in China, and it has only been in the past 1,000 years that there has been an internal fist. And what about thousands of years before that?"

Teng Qingshan couldn't help but resonate when he saw it.

Xia, Shang and Zhou, Chūn Autumn and Warring States, Qin and Han, Three Kingdoms, Two Jin and Northern and Southern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties......

In these dynasties, do people fight by brute force?

Teng Qingshan didn't believe it.

For example, those fierce generals in the Sui and Tang dynasties could easily swing a thousand catties of stone lions with both hands. This waving a stone lion, and lifting that are two different concepts. Like a normal ordinary person, he can lift a hundred catties of rice, but let him hold ten catties of dumbbells in one hand and let him wave them at will, he feels uncomfortable.

This requires wielding a thousand catties of stone lions, at least you have the strength to lift ten thousand catties.

Even today's Teng Qingshan has to go all out to be able to dance that kind of stone lion, and it is impossible to continue to fight for a long time.

During the Three Kingdoms period, some fierce generals could rely on the strength of one person to rush through thousands of troops and kill generals. This is simply incredible, how can a person with limited strength ignore thousands of troops?

"Yes, this nearly 1,000 years is the history of Neijiaquan, but what about the previous thousands of years?" Teng Qingshan was also puzzled in his heart, and the more he continued to look down.

"I spent more than a decade researching and finally had a clear inference in my mind. ”

"My inference is that since the Sui and Tang dynasties, the aura between heaven and earth has been declining sharply!"

When Teng Qingshan saw this, he couldn't help but be puzzled.

"According to many of the materials I have found, in the Chūn Autumn and Warring States periods, Qin and Han dynasties, etc., there is no such thing as Neijiaquan at all. At that time, the strong people absorbed the heaven and earth jīng hua, that is, the aura of heaven and earth, and 'refined jīng qi', so that the internal strength in the body was generated. With cultivation, the internal strength becomes stronger and stronger, and the meridians are opened up until the day after tomorrow. ”

"The acquired inner strength is strong, the internal strength is rolling, and the strength is extremely strong. ”

"When the mysterious Mud Pill Palace in his mind opened up and began to 'refine qi and transform the god', this person's 'god' was able to merge with the internal strength and refine it in the dantian, and then gradually transformed into an innate true yuan and became a powerful innate powerhouse. ”

"The innate strong, constantly refining the true element, the true element is constantly tempered in the dantian, the first stage is the 'Void Dan' realm, when the true element is condensed into an entity, that is, the second stage of the 'True Dan' realm, this real Dan has been tempered many times in order to reach the third stage of the 'Jindan' realm. The innate Jindan is strong, that is, the peak powerhouse! According to ancient legends, one person who ran through thousands of troops and horses, and one person who fought tens of thousands of troops alone, were all congenital strong. ”

Teng Qingshan saw it, and he felt incredible!

How can it be?

The day after tomorrow, the congenital?

This person's 'god' and 'internal strength' are combined, and he can become 'innate true element'.

This innate realm is still divided into three stages: 'Void Dan', 'Real Dan' and 'Golden Dan'?

"In ancient times, the so-called 'Jindan Avenue' refers to this, when you step into the Jindan Avenue, that is the real peak. ”

Teng Qingshan nodded slightly.

I'm afraid I can only say that, otherwise some celebrities in history, such as 'Yue Nu', such as 'Xiang Yu' and other super powerhouses, can't explain why they are so powerful. Moreover, there are many records that refer to the ancient cultivators of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors period as 'Qi Refiners'.

It is estimated that it is also refining the aura of heaven and earth.

Teng Qingshan continued reading.

"However, since the Sui and Tang dynasties, the aura of heaven and earth has begun to decline sharply. ”

"Therefore, many generals and heroes in the Sui and Tang dynasties should be the last group of super strong. Such as Li Yuanba, Qin Qiong and others, only when they reach the innate realm, it is estimated that they can wield a thousand catties of huge objects without feeling tired. It was recorded in the book, and it also resonated with Teng Qingshan.

He is already the limit of the world, with a stone lion in each hand, wielding a thousand pounds of weight, and fighting for a long time. Teng Qingshan asked himself if he could do it.

And according to some records of various sects, after the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were fewer and fewer strong people, and then even a congenital strong person no longer appeared. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it was almost impossible to even absorb the aura of heaven and earth and refine the internal strength. ”

Teng Qingshan looked at it and sighed secretly.

At first, no one reached the innate anymore, and later, they couldn't cultivate at all.

"The fewer the strong, the weaker my Song Dynasty is, since this absorbs the aura of heaven and earth, it is impossible to cultivate internal strength. Then I, the people of the Song Dynasty, will of course find a way to take another path. ”

Teng Qingshan nodded slightly.

"In ancient times, training physical strength was only done by people who did not enter the stream. Because it is almost impossible to generate internal strength by exercising physical strength. It's just too hard to 'go from the outside in'. ”

"But since you simply absorb the aura of heaven and earth, you can't do it by practicing internal strength. This has made generations of peerless characters devote themselves to it. With the passage of time, there are gradually people who can rely on a series of means such as standing piles to generate internal strength. For example, in ancient times, the Song Dynasty general 'Yue Fei' was a general who trained his internal strength. ”

However, during the Song Dynasty, the internal fist was only a prototype, and only a very small number of proud sons of the sky could practice internal strength. As for opening up the meridians of the whole body, it is simply impossible to reach the realm of a grandmaster. ”

"After a short period of the Yuan Dynasty, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Wudang Zhang Sanfeng should be the first to cultivate the inner family fist to the peak, open up the meridians of the whole body, muscles, epithelium, muscles and bones, and cultivate the great master of the limit of the Dao. It was also from this period that the Neijiaquan system was finally perfected, and then Taijiquan, Xingyiquan, and Baguaquan were ...... Many types of boxing also appeared one by one. ”

Teng Qingshan felt embarrassed from the beginning to the end.

He could only sigh -

The ability of people to adapt to the environment is indeed very strong.

In ancient times, the aura of heaven and earth was abundant, and people learned to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, practice internal strength, and even practice innate true yuan.

But the aura of heaven and earth has decreased sharply, what should human beings do?

After hundreds of years of exploration, I don't know how many talented characters wasted Qing chūnguangyīn, and gradually had Neijiaquan!

In modern times, the system of inner family boxing cultivation has been very perfect. There are even "Tiger Shape Divine Technique", "Xuanwu Rock Strength", "Fish and Dragon Transformation", which are magical secret techniques that only grandmasters can cultivate.

In the era of the Autumn Warring States Period and the Qin and Han Dynasties, could the people at that time imagine that they could cultivate to this point from the outside in?

"In fact, this cultivation process is the process of 'refining jīng and transforming qi' and 'refining qi and transforming gods'. In ancient times, the 'jīng' of refining jīng and transforming qi referred to heaven and earth jīnghua, which refers to the aura of heaven and earth. But now, this 'jīng' refers to the jīng blood of the human body!" Liu Yan described in the book, "After all, it cannot be absorbed from the outside, only the jīng blood in the human body." Therefore, most of the powerhouses who cultivate Neijiaquan are very capable of eating, and it is normal to eat half a roast sheep in one meal, because they have to refine a large amount of jīng blood, so they naturally have to eat more. ”

Teng Qingshan nodded secretly.

Indeed, he himself is very good at eating.

To cultivate Neijiaquan, the first thing is to be physically strong and have sufficient qi and blood, and when the jīng blood is sufficient to a certain extent, it can be gradually refined into internal strength.
