"Qingyangzi·Health Preservation Chapter" is an introduction to spiritual practice.
It is divided into two parts: "Health Sutra" and "Longevity Fist".
The "Health Sutra" records mainly static exercises.
"Eternal Life Fist" records mainly the movements.
Only by combining movement and stillness to strengthen the body and strengthen the three souls and seven souls can we enter the next stage of practice, the Qi refining realm!
However, the old Taoist Huang Ya spent his whole life, and supplemented it with the help of heretics, and then he was able to step into the threshold of Qi refining realm and cultivate some meager magic power.
It can be seen from this that the road to spiritual practice is long and difficult!
Jiang Chen faced the rising sun, sat cross-legged, raised his five hearts to the sky, and began to meditate through the "Health Sutra"!
The so-called breathing meditation is to adjust your breathing rhythm, resonate with the vitality of heaven and earth, and guide the vitality of heaven and earth into the body.
Through breathing, part of the energy of the heaven and earth's vitality is integrated into one's own flesh, blood, muscles and bones to achieve the effect of strengthening the body!
It's just that at this moment, Jiang Chen hasn't opened his lower dantian yet, so he can't completely refine the vitality of heaven and earth and turn it into magic power for his use.
His current body is like a broken window leaking air from everywhere, so what the "Health Sutra" can do is to guide the vitality of heaven and earth into the body and subtly nourish the flesh, blood, muscles and bones. This is the internal practice of static power.
What "Eternal Life Fist" can do is to exercise the body and strengthen the blood through various special postures. This is an external practice of moving skills.
Although this "Qingyangzi·Health Preservation Chapter" is not a sacred book, its explanation of health preservation is really insightful and thought-provoking!
This yellow-toothed old Taoist does not know the true scriptures, does not have access to the righteous Dharma, and has followed the heretical path. It is really sad and deplorable!
But that’s how practice is. The master leads you in. Practice depends on the individual. If you are stupid, even if someone gives you enlightenment, you will never become a great person!
After Jiang Chen circulated the "Health Sutra" for a week, he felt that the energy of heaven and earth he carried was already saturated.
So he stood up, pulled up his boxing frame, and began to practice "Longevity Fist". This boxing technique is a health-preserving boxing technique. It looks weak and weak, not fierce.
However, this boxing method emphasizes the long flow of water, continuous and silky strength, which is quite a bit like the soft power of Tai Chi!
Jiang Chen only practiced once and felt that his body had become much stronger, and the effect was very obvious!
It seems that he is indeed a man of great talent and is destined to live forever!
Jiang Chen practiced "Longevity Fist" over and over again and felt that his body was getting stronger and stronger, but the vitality of heaven and earth in his body was constantly being consumed. After about thirteen times of boxing, the vitality of heaven and earth in his body had been completely exhausted, and all the cells in his body Full of hunger, I wish I could eat half a cow!
Jinggong breathes out the vitality of heaven and earth, keeping one's own flesh and blood full of spirituality.
The exercise consumes the vitality of heaven and earth and fundamentally strengthens the body.
This is the correct way to open "Qingyangzi·Health Preservation"!
Jiang Chen immediately sat cross-legged and meditated, running the "Health Sutra" to breathe out. After the heaven and earth energy in his body was filled again, he practiced the "Longevity Fist" again, but this time after punching three times, he felt in a trance and found it difficult to concentrate. .
"With the blessing of heaven and earth's vitality, although my physical strength can keep up, my mental strength has become weaker and weaker, which is why I am in a trance now."
"My current state is equivalent to having full health but no mana!"
"But I didn't recover my mental power quickly. It seems I can only recover my mental power slowly."
"The main mission requires me to survive in this world for three days. Now only one day has passed, and there are still two days left."
"I remember that the old Huangya Taoist who transformed into a human-headed tree once said that after crossing the Black Mountain and traveling a hundred miles westward, you will reach Changfeng County. Maybe I should go to Changfeng County to take a look."
"It's too dangerous to stay in the wilderness. I'll either encounter monsters or ghosts. With my current strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with these, not to mention jackals, tigers and leopards!"
"The buff destiny of Tiansheng and Chengxiang in times of adversity is probably not that effective!"
"Although I have a lot of banknotes in my hands now, these things are probably useless even if they are brought back to the real world. At that time, they were just a pile of waste paper."
"If we can get to Changfeng County, we can exchange the banknotes into silver taels at the county bank, or use these banknotes to buy some precious jades, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and we can probably sell them for a good price in the real world!"
Jiang Chen was thinking in his mind, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter!
Although this fairy world is full of dangers, he seems to have found a way to make money!
The most painful thing in life is that while you are still alive, your money is gone!
As long as you can make money, what's the risk?
This money was not a small amount. It was accumulated by Demon Dao through so many years of clever robbery. Although he also spent a lot, there were nearly a thousand taels of silver notes that fell into Jiang Chen's hands.
If all of them were exchanged for silver in a bank, they would be worth hundreds of thousands when brought back to the real world.
Although this amount of money is not small for Jiang Chen, it is only equivalent to his annual salary of two to three years.
It's really not worth working for this little money.
So it’s better to exchange it for antique jade!
He was thinking in his mind about how to maximize the benefits of the banknotes in his hand. After planning, he took action immediately.
He put on a relatively clean Taoist robe from the Huangya Lao Taoist in the package, carried a stack of talismans and a stack of silver notes in his pocket, and carried a mahogany sword on his back, crossed the Black Mountain, and headed straight for Changfeng County.
…………
at dusk.
Changfeng County.
A young man came on foot wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a mahogany sword on his back. He looked like a young man from a wealthy family with his thin skin and tender flesh, but the worn Taoist robe was really weird on him.
Because his hair is as short as an unordained wild monk!
A monk on the way?
Buddhism and Taoism?
A leftist monk?
Several big question marks popped up in the mind of the government servant guarding the city gate.
"That Taoist, stop quickly!"
Four government officials blocked Jiang Chen's way.
"Four laymen, Xiaodao is a Taoist priest conferred by Qingyang Taoist Palace. Their common surname is Jiang, their single name is Chen, and their Taoist name is Chunyang. They are passing through Changfeng County and want to stay here for one night. I hope it is convenient for you. "
As he said that, Jiang Chen took out one or two pieces of silver that he had prepared in advance and handed it to one of them.
One tael of silver was worth a thousand copper plates. The monthly salary of these government servants was only two taels of silver. Seeing Jiang Chen making such a generous move, the four of them immediately started laughing.
"It turns out that he is the Taoist master of Qingyang Taoist Palace, and I am waiting for Meng Lang!"
"It's getting late, little Taoist priest, please go into the city quickly!"
As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. The four of them got the benefits, and they were all happy. They even let Jiang Chen pass without even checking his ultimatum.
Originally, Jiang Chen had already thought up a way to say it, but now it seems that he probably won't be able to use it anymore.
Entering Changfeng County, at this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Jiang Chen's face. All the shops along the street had been closed one after another, and it looked like the curfew was about to go.
He walked along the street, looked around, and finally found an inn called 'Bliss'.
