Chapter 3 Introductory Exercises

When Lu Yanning finished practicing, he was already sweating.

Master Guo threw away a dry towel and said, "Wipe."

After taking the towel and wiping the sweat, Lu Yanning had not had time to say anything, he heard the master ask, "Do you kid not wipe your sweat every time you finish practicing, but just blow the air and cool it down?"

"Master, how do you know?" Lu Yanning asked in surprise.

"Haha, just look at your appearance and you will know it. You are full of wind and evil! You are young now and can still withstand it. If you keep going like this, you will know the pain after you are forty." Master Guo said lightly: "Your master, I, no matter how you say it, you know some medical skills."

"Ah, no, right? I don't feel anything." Lu Yanning replied disapprovingly, paused for a moment, and immediately flattered: "Master, you are so awesome, you actually understand medical skills!"

Master Guo didn't argue with the young man, but just said lightly: "Today I will teach you a set of internal skills, you can practice it first."

Lu Yanning suddenly became happy and quickly replied: "Okay, OK, thank you Master!"

Internal power! Legendary internal power! He couldn't help but be unhappy.

Next, Master Guo explained the martial arts to Lu Yanning, but it was finished in just a short while. Seeing Lu Yanning still looking at him, he smiled angrily and said, "Go over there to practice!"

Lu Yanning hesitated and asked, "Master, is this skill too simple?" He thought, although it is not like the Nine Yang Divine Arts on TV, at least he has to have a set of mental methods running routes, and follow the meridians and turn left and right, right? Otherwise, how can you see the superiority of internal skills?

"I love to practice, but I don't practice and leave!" Master Guo left a sentence, turned around and left, "I remember to bring the gate of the courtyard when I leave."

No explanation! It seems to be a little angry?

Looking at the back of the master leaving the yard, Lu Yanning knew that his master was going to the mountain again. When he was chatting with his master yesterday, he heard from his master that his master was friends with the host of the temple on the mountain. As for what kind of friend Lu Yanning was, he didn't know. The master didn't say it, and he didn't dare to ask. However, it was because the master came to visit his friend that he lived here and had the opportunity to become a disciple.

Shaking his head, Lu Yanning walked towards a cushion placed in the yard, sat cross-legged as the master said. He closed his eyes and carefully recalled the "internal strength" practice method taught by his master.

Actually, there is nothing to think about. It’s a very simple thing, thousands of times simpler than imagined. He really doubts that this is internal strength? Is this also called internal strength?

Sit cross-legged naturally, put your hands on your knees, sit upright, keep your whole body relaxed, and do not lower your head and shruggle your shoulders. This and so on are all very simple requirements. Then the mental method is: close your eyes gently, imagine that there is a flame in the dantian in your belly, and the flame is constantly burning, maintaining this state until you finish the exercise.

The only thing that surprised him was the location of the Dantian. According to what he read from books before, the Dantian should be three inches below the navel, and the Guanyuan point mentioned in the acupuncture book. However, what the master said was the back of the navel, the midpoint connecting the navel and the Mingmen line, inside the belly!

This whole technique is too simple, right? If it were put now, many people would probably curse "Scammer!" or "Fraud!"

However, Lu Yanning didn't come into contact with much at that time, and he was quite honest and didn't think much about it. Instead, he started practicing there honestly as required.

After all, the master has worshipped him, so what does the master say? It is natural that there is a reason for the master to say this. No matter what, practice first and do what you should do, and you will naturally know what the result will be.

Speaking of which, Lu Yanning has never been exposed to the practice of meditation. After sitting as required for a while, apart from the curiosity and excitement at the beginning, Lu Yanning gradually felt a little bored.

What? Close your eyes, it's dark, thinking about the fire in your stomach, what kind of fire? While sitting, your mind doesn't know where to go. Sometimes I think about my work and where to go in the future. Then I think about my former classmates, thinking about my beautiful classmates and not knowing whether they are in love.

In school, Lu Yanning liked a girl in a ignorance, but the girl didn't feel anything about him and it ended before it even started.

I don’t know where I want to go. After a while, Lu Yanning realized, what was he doing? Uh, he was practicing.

Practice? What kind of exercises? How do you practice?

When Lu Yanning came to his senses, he shook his head in annoyance. He opened his eyes, but found that the yard was quiet. He felt a little bored while sitting, so he stood up and walked a few steps in the yard. After thinking about it, he still pulled out the shelf and started practicing the Yijin Jing.

After all, I am still a young man, and I like moving but not quiet, so I feel more comfortable to move.

After a set of Yijin Jing came down, Lu Yanning was already sweating. He was about to go out of the yard for some breath and blow the air, but he remembered what his master said before. After thinking about it, he turned around and picked up a dry towel and wiped the sweat from his body.

After looking at the direction of the mountain for a while, naturally, there was no other thing except the trees on the mountain. I was stunned. After thinking about it, Lu Yanning turned around and sat on the cushion honestly, closed his eyes and practiced his internal skills.

From head to toe, section by section, every part is visualized to relax, from the top of the head, to the back of the head, to the chin, to the neck, to the shoulder, to the chest, to the back, to the abdomen, to the waist, to... so until the toes, and then from shoulder to arm to elbow to wrist to fingertips, Lu Yanning felt that it seemed like he felt a little, so he withdrew his mind and thought that there was a bright, violently burning flame in his dantian.

As I practiced, I felt quite comfortable. As my breathing slowed down, I felt more and more comfortable, but my head began to eat one by one.

Well, this is not practice? It’s clearly sleeping!

When he was about to fall asleep, his body shook and almost fell to the ground. Lu Yanning was shocked but woke up, gently pounded his head, and said strangely: "Why did I fall asleep?"

It turns out that this set of exercises that seem very simple are not that easy to practice.

He stood up and moved his body slightly, especially his legs that were almost numb. After the movement started, Lu Yanning sat down again and started to ruthlessly: "I must practice well this time!"

Unfortunately, ideals are full and reality is skinny!

I have been tossing several times, and each time I either think randomly or doze off. As for the fire in the dantian? The dark fire is not the black wool, not to mention what the master said will make it hot and warm.

Originally, the master said that those who are fast will feel the fever of the dantian after practicing once or twice, and Lu Yanning also thought it was easy and simple. After all, no one thinks that they are the fastest one, the qualified one.

Thinking about the heroes who read Jin Dada's novels before, Zhang Sanfeng, Zhang Wuji, Qiao Feng, Guo Jing, Linghu Chong, etc., Lu Yanning still yearns for them very much, yearning for one day he can become a master like the hero in the novel.

In the past, Lu Yanning always felt that he could not practice the skills like the hero in the novel because he lacked internal skills. But now, if he had the opportunity to learn internal skills, he could not practice it. He felt really a little discouraged.

He didn't expect that the master would deceive himself or something. After all, the master could optimize it by just reading the Yijin Jing he practiced. Although he couldn't see what would become in the future, at least he immediately felt that it was obviously different from before. With this, Lu Yanning didn't believe that the master would just say something to deceive him.

He didn't know that there was a professional term for this state where he would fall asleep while practicing, called "drowsiness". The reason for this state was actually very simple. He had not been able to ignite the fire at this time and the yang energy in his body could not rise.

Originally, it was said that his yang energy was strong at his age, but he sweated, blew wind and drank cold drinks on weekdays, which suppressed the yang energy. Once he sat down quietly, his body was full of yin energy, so it would be strange if he was not drowsy.

After struggling for so long, Lu Yanning felt a little hungry. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock.

I thought about it after thinking about it when I first arrived here, it was only about 8:30, so why did time pass so quickly?

When I was immersed in some things, time really ran very fast, and it took more than three hours without realizing it.

After looking outside the yard, the master had not come back yet, "I don't know if the master will come back at noon." Lu Yanning muttered.

"Forget it, wait a moment. If the master comes back and sees me later, he thinks I'm leaving." Lu Yanning thought for a while and thought he should wait. Anyway, although he is a little hungry, he is not very hungry, and he has a lot of food in the morning. So he walked to the table, sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

However, when you do nothing, time always passes very slowly.

Lu Yanning drank all the tea pot, but it only took ten minutes.

I thought drinking some tea to decorate my stomach would help me fight hunger, but I didn’t think I would get hungry the more I drank.

After thinking about it, Lu Yanning took out the paper and pen from his small bag and wrote on the paper: Master, I'm hungry, go out for a meal first and then come back, it's not like I'm leaving.

Looking at the words on the paper, Lu Yanning nodded with satisfaction, put the paper on the table, thought about it, and took a cup and pressed it on it.

In fact, Lu Yanning's handwriting is really, how can I say it, it is similar to a friend in the third grade of elementary school, but he feels good about himself.

After doing these things well, Lu Yanning turned around and left the yard, brought the gate of the yard, and went to find food.
