He Zihan first trained Ao Lei in the basic kung fu of internal strength and luck, and let her practice holding her breath and breathing, in fact, He Zihan was preparing in advance to teach Ao Lei to practice internal strength and qigong operation.

After two days of rest, He Zihan led Ao Lei to the flat ground in front of a bamboo forest on the hillside, and she said to Ao Lei: "Ao Lei, in the next stage, Master will teach you how to practice the operation of internal qi, and also teach you some internal strength and mental methods, I hope you can train seriously and comprehend with your heart." ”

Ao Lei asked, "How do you start practicing the internal qi operation?" The disciple has no clue at all, and he doesn't even know how to prepare in his heart. ”

"Didn't we talk about the 'virtual quiet' state of mind before? However, there is no way for beginners to achieve the 'virtual quiet' state of mind, only martial arts masters can have that state of mind, of course, beginners can start from practicing 'entering meditation', practicing internal skills is to use the intention to luck, and to concentrate the mind, you must first enter the meditation, only in the meditation can eliminate the interference of the outside world, in order to concentrate the mind and calm the mind. The so-called 'meditation' requires the person who practices martial arts to exert his subjective consciousness, use his mind, relax the whole body, eliminate distracting thoughts in his heart, and gradually make his consciousness gradually enter a kind of sleepless and non-sleepy from the awake state. It seems to be awake but not awake, and in this process of awakening to stillness, concentrating the mind, relaxing the body and mind, eliminating distracting thoughts, and using the mind and luck This aspect is carried out at the same time, which is several aspects of the unification process. And all other distracting thoughts are eliminated, 'one thought for ten thousand thoughts'. In this state of mind, those parts of the brain that are usually stimulated by miscellaneous things are 'asleep', only the parts of luck are 'awake', people who are skilled in martial arts can quickly 'enter meditation', and soon make their brains enter a state of rest except for luck, and the whole body and mind are focused on luck, and when the body and mind of people who practice martial arts enter this state, they will feel in a smooth mood. The body is comfortable. When the mind is open-minded and the breath is relaxed, the functional activities of the various systems of the whole body will develop in a coordinated and orderly direction. The mind can effectively control the operation of the whole body's energy. Thus. Qi can be converted into force, which is usually referred to as 'qi', and ordinary people's exertion is only to strengthen 'strength'. However, those who practice martial arts can exert the abilities latent in their bodies and send out 'strength', so there are martial arts masters in the martial arts. He Zihan carefully explained to Ao Lei the practice principle of "entering meditation".

"Master, it seems that the disciple has somewhat understood that 'entering meditation' is actually to eliminate all the things that should not be paid attention to as distracting thoughts, and only focus on the aspects that should be paid attention to, concentrate the mind, concentrate on controlling one's own thoughts, and let the thoughts command the 'qi' in the body, and when the 'qi' is smooth, the 'qi' will be generated, and you will be able to practice martial arts, right?" Ao Lei said happily.

"Hehe, you understand quickly, no wonder Uncle Lin has always said that you are a very smart woman, sure enough, you can understand a little, your understanding is right, only by concentrating your mind can you calm your mind, calm your mind can eliminate distracting thoughts, eliminate distracting thoughts to concentrate your consciousness to adjust your breath, adjust your breath to make the qi in your body run in a coordinated and orderly manner, and the orderly operation of qi can make the body's potential come into play, therefore, you can send out a strong 'qi', so, practice' 'Meditation' is an introductory course for beginners, the reason why you were asked to practice breathing before was to allow you to regulate your breath and meditate, if you can concentrate on 'exhaling' and 'inhaling', you will have no time to take care of the interference of things around you, you will be able to eliminate distracting thoughts and concentrate your mind, and before you were asked to bury your head in the stream to practice breath-holding, it is to let you use your mind to adjust your breath, and to use your luck in a way that exceeds ordinary people's luck, which is the way to train 'meditation'. He Zihan said.

"I see, the disciple was still a little unconvinced at that time, thinking that people will breathe when they are born, why do they still need to train, it turns out that there are so many famous halls of 'exhalation' and 'inhalation', and at that time, the disciple did not understand why the master insisted on the disciple burying his head in the water and holding his breath, it turned out that he was practicing 'luck', but he didn't expect that holding his breath in the water was actually training to use luck and luck with qi.

"In martial arts, it is often said: internal practice of 'spirit', external practice of 'skill', in fact, the external 'skill' is inseparable from the internal 'spirit', 'strength' comes from the concentration of ideas, and 'into the quiet' is the basic kung fu, in this sense, 'into the quiet' is the beginning of learning martial arts. He Zihan said.

Ao Lei knew a little about He Zihan's "Jingjing", he knew that only by practicing "Jingjing" kung fu could she lay a good foundation for martial arts, and she knew that her master had talked about the "Xujing" thought of a big Taoist before, which was originally to make her understand that the advanced theories of the ancients had such a close relationship with martial arts. ”

Ao Lei asked, "Master, this 'meditation' is a kind of adjustment of mental activity, so how can we calm down our minds more quickly and not be affected by distracting thoughts?"

"Learning to 'enter meditation' is a process, not to be able to 'enter meditation' if you want to enter meditation, martial arts masters, because they can already concentrate their minds skillfully, so they can 'enter meditation' relatively quickly, and for beginners, it is difficult to concentrate their thoughts quickly, so they must first consciously eliminate distracting thoughts psychologically, that is, to practice 'entering meditation', we must avoid all kinds of distracting thoughts, for example, we must avoid irritability and anger. People are affectionate, emotional, when encountering unsatisfactory things, there will be bad feelings, unpleasant emotions, so angry, irritable, angry, last time Master asked you to move bamboo to the valley, you must be very reluctant in your heart, very unconvinced, although you dare not say it, in fact, you are very irritable, even a little annoyed, you fell bamboo at that time to be discouraged, right? At that time, the Master could understand it, but deliberately did not explain it to you, the purpose was for you to learn to self-adjust your mentality, gradually eliminate irritability, and self-dissipate, so to enter meditation, you must first learn to control your feelings, reduce your anger, and be in a peaceful mood. ”

Aolei listened and lowered her head embarrassedly, acknowledging that what her master said was right, and she felt that all the actions of her master before were in her eyes and in her heart.

He Zihan continued: "Another example, you must avoid willfulness. People have character, some people have a more supple personality, and some people have a more rigid character, but, even if the personality is more supple people, once the thing is identified, sometimes they will persistently insist, of course, if it is for the big goal, persistent insistence is right, but if you know that it is wrong, in order to deliberately insist on being different, deliberately not accepting the opinions of others, stubbornness, this is a kind of willfulness in the psychological way, practice' If you insist on acting according to your own intentions, it is against the principle of going with the flow, so that the mind can not play naturally, and can not achieve the effect of coordinated and orderly operation, if you continue to insist on willfulness, it will let the qi and blood accumulate in one place, and may produce headaches, dizziness, and even meridian swelling pain, and naturally you will not be able to enter the process of luck. ”

"Master, if you don't remind you, the disciple must be the most prone to make this mistake, the disciple is in the White Mansion, he is deeply loved by his parents, everyone in the house is obedient to the disciple, the disciple wants to do something, no one dares to stop it, it has always been bent on going his own way, the disciple is a typical example of the 'willfulness' and 'stubbornness' you said, now, fortunately, you said the request to avoid willfulness, otherwise, the disciple may be difficult to 'enter the quiet'!" Ao Lei said.

He Zihan said: "Don't worry, your understanding is good, Master believes that you can change your 'willfulness', and you must eliminate distracting thoughts and avoid greedy thoughts." Ordinary people have desires, if they have desires, they will be greedy, greedy for money, fame, profit, lust, greedy for pleasure, greedy for pleasure, greedy for pleasure, they will always want to be satisfied, so the heart will not be quiet, if the greed is constantly strengthened, it will become evil thoughts, and they want to be satisfied by unscrupulous means, so if there is greed in the heart, naturally they will not be able to concentrate their thoughts, they will not be able to calm their minds, therefore, if they are greedy, they will naturally not be able to 'enter meditation', only if the heart is correct and the heart is pure, can the mind be calm. ”

"Please rest assured, Master, disciples will not be greedy for pleasure, there is no 'greed', and they have never valued wealth, fame and fortune, and they are ...... They are not greedy for sex, and their minds are more 'quiet', and from these aspects, disciples are more able to 'enter into meditation'. Ao Lei said.

"Greed is a kind of excessive pursuit of desire satisfaction, sometimes, not the obvious pursuit of wealth, fame, fortune, sex, but thinking about being satisfied with one's own appearance, thinking about being satisfied with one's own praise, this is actually greed, so we must also avoid pride and complacency. Ordinary people have to have a sense of satisfaction, and after getting satisfied, there is complacency, pride, and often people who are not very capable, easy to be complacent about what they do, boastful, proud and complacent, and people with great ability can be modest and cautious, this is the so-called 'real people do not show their faces, show their faces are not real people', people who are easy to be proud and complacent, always play with the joy of self-success in their hearts, want to be praised by others, and naturally they can't calm down, like to talk big, like to show Xiàn, how can this 'enter the quiet'?" He Zihan said.

"Master reminds me well, people always like to be satisfied with what they have done, and often exaggerate the ingredients of success, like to show off to others, and always be complacent about what they have done, the disciple thinks, if the master does not remind him, the disciple must be very easy to make this mistake, and he must always remind himself in the future to guard against arrogance and arrogance. Ao Lei said.

He Zihan continued: "There is also a 'taboo', you are still very young, you have not experienced it, the master should not have said it, but practicing martial arts is a strict thing, the master still brought it up first, and you must also pay attention to it in the future, this 'one taboo' is to avoid indulgence and indulgence, and the appropriate satisfaction of lust is the normal feeling of people, but if the indulgence is rampant and the indulgence is excessive, it is very dangerous for the 'jing', and it is a taboo for those who practice martial arts." ”

"Master, this ...... Disciple doesn't understand this!" said Ao Lei shyly. (To be continued......)
