21 Refining Skin Realm

Although the direction out of the mountain is not the direction of entering the mountain, Wu Changkong did not stop and returned to Chuyang.

I bought a mountain bike and went to the master with Mu Bai.

Although Lu Tianqing was disappointed after knowing that Wu Changkong cooperated with Wu Meng, he didn't say that he wouldn't let Wu Changkong find him. For Lu Tianqing, there is no such thing as cooperation, in fact, it is to join the Wumeng. It's just that after knowing that Wu Changkong has made progress, the loss is even more obvious.

"Master, is there really a cultivation of immortals in this world?" Wu Changkong told about the adventure in Songshan.

"I haven't heard my master say it, and I haven't heard it from the warriors. Most of those popular rumors are not credible. For example, the flying sword, I think it is an exaggeration of the flying knife hidden weapon. Ordinary people see strong men fighting from a distance, and sometimes although they use swords, they will also use hidden weapons when attacking from a distance. Maybe when you see the flying knife and the light of the knife, you add oil and vinegar and imagine it as a flying sword. "Lu Tianqing is actually not sure whether there is or not, but he really hasn't heard the martial artist say it.

"Is it possible to take a volley?"

"Maybe it's possible, I'm not good at light work, it's hard to say. If it is a high-level technique performed by a martial artist above the late stage of bone burning, I think it may be possible. But it shouldn't be long, it's just an illusion of volleying. Like you said, walking in the air all the time or going from a mountain to a mountain should not be possible. ”

"Master, I'm going to buy a villa, and you can come and live with me then. ”

"No need. Lu Tianqing's eyes dimmed and he stopped talking.

"Master, I'm just cooperating with the Martial Alliance. I'm still a warrior, and there's no conflict. I think that as long as the heart of a martial artist is not lost, all external objects are just a kind of cultivation. It's just a different form. ”

The master and apprentice still couldn't talk together, and Wu Changkong and Mu Bai left before dinner.

"Mu Bai, did the Wumeng look for you at the beginning?" asked Wu Changkong on the way back.

"I found it. Otherwise, how could I have been documented by them. ”

"Then you didn't say yes?"

"Everyone has their own ideas and choices. I have hands and feet to feed myself and why do I want their stuff?"

"But isn't this the time to feed the cultivation? Wu Changkong didn't understand a little, Mu Bai gave up his time to go to school and study to practice martial arts, how can he support his martial arts practice time in order to earn money?

"I don't want 10 million, how can I spend so much time? You think, we martial artists don't play things and don't get paid, we can't eat much, and we don't wear much. So what else is there to spend money on? So what do you need so much money for? I'm now a coach in a taekwondo gym, and I don't teach boxing. It's just that if someone comes to kick the gym and they can't handle it, I'll take care of it. It's very easy and the money is a lot. Besides, where is there such a thing as kicking the gym now, as long as there is a strong person in charge, everyone is safe with each other. The most important thing is that I think of earning money as a kind of cultivation. Many martial artists regard life as a kind of cultivation, cultivating in the face of adversity. ”

Hearing this, Wu Changkong's ears were like a slap in the face, and he couldn't help but regret it a little.

Seeing Wu Changkong like this, Mu Bai smiled: "Actually, even if you accept it, it won't be good, the key is to look at the individual's heart and will." You can also think of it as a kind of cultivation. Cultivation is more difficult than our martial artists, because you are trapped deeper and entangled in red dust more. As you yourself said, all external things are cultivation, and they are just in different forms. You choose a more difficult path, but if you succeed you are higher than others. ”

The next day, Wu Changkong went to buy a house, and there was a villa area near the mountain in the high school district. It is said that the feng shui there is very good, the earth is brilliant, and the children who live there will also be dragons and phoenixes, and Wenqu stars will descend to earth.

Wu Changkong went to see that the environment was good, and he went out of the city on one side of the mountains. There are several villas in the area, and Wu Changkong chose the most remote one, the closest to the mountain to see. Although the sales beauty thinks that Wu Changkong does not seem to be able to afford a house, she is not particularly lazy. Unexpectedly, Wu Changkong's speed was very fast, and he said that the price was not a problem, and he chose it at once. Saying hello to the account number, he told Yu Fei that the money would arrive immediately, which made the beautiful woman in charge of receiving Wu Changkong stunned, which was too unexpected.

The villa is decorated, which saves Wu Changkong's decoration time and cheapens Wu Meng. After simply purchasing some necessary furniture, Wu Changkong was ready to move in a few days.

The villa is half an hour by bike from the school. Wu Changkong regarded the half hour wasted on the road as a practice, patience, and caution against impatience.

The environment was also clearly inspected by Wu Changkong. Behind it are mountains, and on one side of the mountains are the wilderness of the mountains. On one side is the forest farm field, and out is the road out of the city. The only bad thing is the camera used for security in the villa area, and it would not be good to shoot Wu Changkong flying on the wall.

It's quiet at night, the air is good, and it's really a place to recuperate. It's that the property is frighteningly expensive, Wu Changkong didn't plan to live for a long time, and sold it once he left Chuyang City after graduation.

Because the relationship with the dormitory is not very good, Wu Changkong living outside also makes his roommates secretly happy. The group activities of the school in the class did not participate, which made Wu Changkong and his classmates incompatible. As the days passed, the freshmen gradually began to enrich their university life after a month of habituation. After Wu Changkong didn't live in the school, he didn't appear in front of everyone except for classes and meals, so he faded out of everyone's sight.

On weekends, he began to go to Mu Bai to practice, and in addition to daily practice, Wu Changkong began to study three books in depth, "Laozi", "Zhuangzi", and "Heart Sutra".

Not long after the incident in the Northern Han Dynasty, Chen Xiaoxiao told Wu Changkong that the matter had been done and that there was a car accident.

Wu Changkong, who usually rides a bicycle, has mastered the rhythm of breathing and has begun to try new exercise methods. I thought about this, so I bought a mountain bike. Wu Changkong definitely didn't know how to buy it, so he told the shopkeeper about the requirements. The shopkeeper thought about it for a while and gave Wu Changkong a car, saying that it was light, good in quality, and a famous brand. Wu Changkong bought it, and it cost more than 10,000.

So in a place where there are few people, Wu Changkong began to slowly practice riding a bicycle to jump on and off obstacles or jump over obstacles directly. Wu Changkong also wrestles when doing some tumbling moves, but it's not very miserable because of his quick reflexes. Occasionally, I also ride on the mountain behind the villa, and it doesn't really matter if I ride up the mountain, Wu Changkong has the strength. It's different when you go down the mountain, the reaction is that you can keep up, and the breathing and rhythm are not right.

The security guard in the villa area remembers Wu Changkong the most, he doesn't wear a famous brand, he doesn't drive a good car, and he only rides a bicycle every day. The weather is starting to get colder, and it's still a long-sleeved shirt.

There are also some people who play bicycles and ask Wu Changkong to play together, but unfortunately they are all rejected by Wu Changkong. After a period of consolidation, Wu Changkong had already begun to enter and reached the realm of skin refining.

There are three goals that need to be achieved in the realm of skin refining, the first is to communicate with the skin, the second is to control the true qi, and the third is to refine the grain and refine the essence.

To communicate with the skin is to open up the potential of the skin.

The first is the inductive function. Many people have this phenomenon in the middle of summer, when there is no wind, that is, if there is a slight breeze blowing in a certain part of the body, they will feel their hair being blown. The skin can also feel changes and differences in temperature, for example, if you take a lit cigarette close to your skin, the cigarette butt will burn locally close to the skin. When the skin sensory function communicates, the mind can see various movements of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, thereby increasing the perception of skin touch. In this way, you can feel the airflow and temperature difference around your body. This is of great help to sense changes in the outside world and adjust the speed and direction of the true qi when performing light power. In a match, you can sense the opponent's offensive line by feeling the subtle changes around your body.

When this potential develops to the point where you can feel the gaze or murderous aura of others on your body.

The second is the respiratory function of the skin. The skin can use pores to flush out substances from the body, including sweat and some substances. Similarly, the skin can also absorb gases or substances from the outside world through its pores. An example of rubbing medicinal wine. The medicinal power of medicinal liquor penetrates into the body through the skin and can be targeted for treatment. Skin refining is to restore the skin's ability to absorb aura. In this way, it is possible to increase the intake of oxygen and the intake of various trace elements in the air that are beneficial to the body through the skin.

When I reached the realm of skin refining, I have begun to prefer vegetarian food, especially fruits. Because meat contains too many impurities and mutated substances, eating it will affect the excretory function and hinder the evolution of the stomach and intestines. Once the martial arts enter the door, the pores also begin to officially participate in the operation of eliminating impurities from the body. The higher the realm, the greater the proportion of the position. Eating fruits and vegetables is equivalent to eating the most basic substances, absorbing the essential nutrients of the body and the aura inhaled from the pores will produce substances that meet the needs of the body when cultivating.

Another potential of the skin is that after opening up the connection between the pores and the meridians, the true qi can be densely spread on the surface of the skin to achieve the purpose of protecting itself. After practicing this, ordinary people will not be able to cut the skin of a warrior with a sword. But it could not protect the warrior from cutting with a sword. When you reach the realm of calcining bones, you can protect against pistols, but only partially. It is where the skin feels the part of the bullet, and the true qi is transported there to protect.

The task of controlling true qi is divided into two aspects. The first is to control the trend and speed of true qi. Trends such as the above-mentioned control of the penetration of true qi into the surface of the skin, or the control of true qi to concentrate on a certain point of the fist. Controlling the speed is to allow the true qi to condense at a certain place or point without emitting. For example, when punching, the true qi is not released in the fist, and when it really hits the target, the true qi is blasted out at the same time in an instant. Even when changing moves, you can retrograde the true qi gathered in your fist back to the dantian. In this way, the waste of true qi can be avoided, and the gap in the continuity of true qi caused by the release of true qi can be avoided as much as possible.

Another important task in the realm of skin refining is to refine the grain.

The so-called cultivation of grain and essence is to change the body's energy or the way of energy replenishment. Nowadays, the material supplement of ordinary people is obtained through the digestion and absorption of food by the stomach and intestines. This is a low-level approach. This method produces a lot of excrement. The higher the realm, the more energy is needed and the greater the amount of energy required. If you rely on this method to replenish it, you will have to spend a lot of time on food, so you won't have more time to cultivate. Especially for meditation, legend has it that masters of the realm of relaxation often spend a day or two meditating. So the primitive method will not work.

By spreading the true qi into the cells of the stomach and intestines, the function of the intestines and stomach is changed, so that the aura absorbed by the pores and breath is converted into the material energy necessary for the body. It's a long process that goes through all realms.

Many people who practice martial arts often compete or fight with others when they have not stepped into the threshold of martial arts and have internal strength, so they frequently use internal force and do not recuperate for a long time, they will feel exhausted. Therefore, he replenishes his internal qi and body by eating and cultivating a lot. These people will never be able to enter the martial arts. Because eating a lot of food makes the body too dependent on this low-level way of energy replenishment. Moreover, it makes the body have more impurities, and the internal force is not enough to impact the realm of skin refining, but it is often used because of fighting, so that the internal force cannot change from quantity to quality to produce true true qi.

Wu Changkong has no competitive heart, and has never used internal force to fight, so he can achieve internal force difference. Coupled with the fact that the proportion of meditation and meditation practice is relatively large, there is not much demand for the aggressive amount of food. Since I was a child, I heard that there was a saying about Bigu, and after discovering that I wanted to increase the amount of food, I felt that it was the opposite of Bigu, so I suppressed and increased my food**. Besides, increasing the amount of food costs money, which was difficult for Wu Changkong, who had very little money at that time. So Wu Changkong did the right thing by mistake.

After entering the Skin Refining Realm, you can practice against Mu Bai.
