Chapter 25 Heaven and earth meet, and then the nectar
Midnight.
Bai Ze retracted his arms and grabbed one foot on the rock. His back moved his muscles on both sides. He gathered one by one as he breathed. The sky was dark. From a distance, he looked like a big bird resting with his wings on his rest.
After lunch, it had been seven or eight hours in a daze. It was the moon in the middle of the sky and the bright moonlight shone into the valley. Mu Taoist also pushed the door and walked out of the hut.
After promising to teach Bai Ze's internal boxing and swords, this Taoist turned out to be abnormal and did not directly explain the tricks to Bai Ze. He only talked about how to practice Qi for a whole afternoon, so he asked him to stand a few boxing postures from dusk, using the stance exercises to nourish his body and mind, filter his anxiety, and calm down slowly.
Internal Kung Fu embodies movement in static, rejuvenation in breathing, and guards the mind. Often, practice is just a simple movement, and requires a unique breathing method. Compared with Bai Ze's external martial arts that he has practiced for more than ten years, there are fewer changes in moves, but it is more mysterious.
Just like a doctor diagnoses a disease, looking, listening, asking and touching, mediocre people can only see the lesions between skin textures, but clever people can go deep into the five internal organs and distinguish the tertiary.
Although internal and external schools are just a saying in the martial arts world, there is no strict definition, and the magic of boxing is the combination of movement and stillness. Since ancient times, no matter which school or school of kung fu, it has taken into account the muscles, bones, and fur. It has the essence of "training internally", but it is really impossible to tell the difference between inside and outside.
However, the boxing and sword techniques of Mu Dao Ren's school have been traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and have a long history. Because they do not establish words and are taught orally and in the heart, they rarely appear outside Mount Emei for thousands of years. Therefore, they are very different from the internal martial arts that are circulating in various parts of the country today.
At that time, hundreds of schools of thought contended in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Not to mention that there is no Taoism in the world, even the Taoist school of thought has just taken shape. Lao Tzu is still in the world, and Yuan Gong’s boxing and sword will naturally not be born from Taoism. However, the principles of the world have been explored to the extreme, and they are all common. Whether it is the boxing and sword learning created by Bai Yuan Gong in seclusion in the mountains and forests and "learning from nature", or what Lao Tzu said, "Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature", it is actually one thing.
From this point of view, the "internal martial arts" advocated by Huang Baijia in the Ming and Qing dynasties was ultimately the work of Taoist alchemists. No matter how it evolved, its roots were always unchanged. It was very similar to the skill that Taoist Mu wanted to teach Bai Ze, and there were different ways to achieve the same destination.
During the whole night, Bai Ze was standing in a stance, and Mu Taoist never took a step out of the hut.
At this time, I pushed the door out and saw Bai Ze crouching and standing with one foot, like a rock eagle standing on the top of a mountain, with his eyes half open and half closed, leaving only a narrow slit outside.
The Mu Taoist moved his feet, his clothes were in the wind, and the man came out of the hut, but he was silent outside his body, hanging high below his feet, and he took one step and took thirty or forty steps away, as if he was walking in the air. In the blink of an eye, the man had already arrived in front of Bai Ze.
However, he did not interrupt Bai Ze's practice immediately, but instead stopped on the spot and observed it at a close distance. There was no sound of wind in the entire valley, and it was quiet. Only Bai Ze's breathing sound was long and far away, and the slightest sound was endless. It was naturally a different scene that came into Mu Taoist's ears, and it was obvious that it was a huge difference.
When Bai Ze was standing in a stance, his whole body was introverted, and his slight gaze was also staring at the three inches in front of his nose, as if he had not had it. His breathing was light and slow, as if he had been spitting silk in spring silk. If he had not been a Mu Taoist, his eyes would have been white. At first glance, he could see Bai Ze's chest and abdomen were still slightly undulating. When others came, he said that he had lost his breath and had become a dead person!
It took another half an hour to see this.
Taoist Mu stood in front of Bai Ze, but Bai Ze seemed to have no sense at all and his eyelids didn't move at all.
Suddenly, a bright moon rose to the middle of the sky, and the cold moonlight formed a beam of light along the cliff wall and shot down. At the same time, Bai Ze's body trembled suddenly and his eyes opened. In an instant, his pupils expanded, and as the moonlight reflected, there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, which made the whole valley lit up.
Then he exhaled, closed his eyes and draped the curtains. The light in his eyes slowly dissipated and disappeared. When his body moved, he jumped off the stone: "Senior, it's time!!"
Taoist Mu was secretly surprised, looked up and down, and then said, "No, not bad, I didn't expect that your school would have this kind of stake. It looks a bit similar to the water and fire yoga in Tianzhu and the Dapeng stake in Shaolin Temple. It looks like a bird and a chicken, with its essence and energy restrained and guarding the orifices. This is the best way to consolidate the essence. It depends on your age and you can practice to this level. You must have stood a lot of stakes! This way, it can save me a lot of energy, tsk..."
"Okay, the time is almost over. Stud exercise is a lifelong thing. You cannot slack off until you condense the inner alchemy. You need to practice diligently every day without interruption. Since you already have this temperature, today's Stud will end here. Next, I will officially pass on the Qi training technique of my school. In ancient times, Taoists went to the mountains to seek Taoism, and there were many wolves, insects, tigers and leopards. Therefore, before you achieve enlightenment, you practice martial arts more to protect yourself. The old Taoist's life's footprints are spread all over the world. When you were young, you learned a lot. In the past thirty years of comprehending boxing and swords, you finally achieved something. Many things have long been integrated into each other.
It is difficult to distinguish one another, so the current Yuan Gong's boxing and sword are no longer the original appearance. Fortunately, the internal learning has different origins, but the principle is that no matter how much you change, you will not have any root. Your iron arm pokes your feet and fight on the battlefield. The one with a man and horse is originally a boxing technique specially used for killing people. Later, although after changing and practicing to the highest level, you can still produce the internal strength and temper the five internal organs. But in the end, you are a little shallower with your feet. It seems stable, but in fact the hidden dangers are hidden and cannot last. Therefore, what I teach you tonight is the method of lowering alchemy in Qi training."
"Heaven and earth are in harmony, and nectar will be brought down!"
Taoist Mu suddenly shouted, and Bai Ze immediately found a place with barefoot, sat cross-legged, washed and calmed his mind, calmed his mind, eliminated distracting thoughts, rolled his tongue backwards to determine the two orifices of the tongue, and closed his mouth and nose to breathe.
"The human body is like a small heaven and earth, the heart is the heaven, and the kidney is the earth. As the qi moves, the mind gradually falls down and merges with the kidney qi."
Taoist Mu stretched out his finger and gestured on Bai Ze's body, pointing out what you need to pay attention to in this step. "Slowly, you will feel that two qi rushes from the root of the big teeth and rush up to the left and right temples, and then crosses at the top door..."
"Those who are like this are three times... After a few days, I feel the breath warming, flowing from the Niwan Gongjing into the brain, flowing through the jawbone along the throat, connecting the coccyx, penetrating the gallbladder and navel into the heart and chest. I can reach this way, but I feel the chest is warm and comfortable. This is a sign of the decline of the true energy...!"
The wooden Taoist slashed his fingers and connected them into lines, explaining all the feelings during cultivation clearly and clearly.
He spent decades in his life in Mount Emei. He practiced martial arts for free and had already unknowingly integrated many Taoist internal alchemy methods. Although he had never accepted an apprentice, he practiced profoundly. At this time, he told it casually that it was all his own personal experience. He was also willing to spend his energy, and while speaking, he penetrated a thread of internal energy into Bai Ze's head, which changed as he said. When he finished his words, Bai Ze also truly realized all the key points of this step of elixir reduction skills.
It is deep into the bone marrow and can never be forgotten. It is deeper than any form of explanation.
Slowly retracting your fingers, Mu Dao Ren took a step back: "Yuan Gong is good at swords, famous all over the world. The reason why there is a difference in boxing and swords is because of the difference in realms. Fists are things on your own body, and you can use them as you want. The sword is an external object. To practice a sword as if it is an arm, it is like the extension of the arm. You have to put in great effort. Originally, if you are young and have not set your skills, you can practice swords directly. Once the sword is completed, you will naturally succeed. But now your boxing skills have been practiced to the core, and how can you change it in a while? So I intend to pass on your boxing skills first, and then practice swords when your internal kung fu has achieved a small success. But no matter what, before practicing qi, you must practice Qi first. From now on, you practice boxing with me during the day, stand at dusk, practice Qi at midnight, and practice Jinggong Xinzhai after midnight. Don't sleep anymore!!"
"I know you won't stay here for too much time. Within a hundred days, I hope you can learn everything I have passed on to you!!"
Bai Ze also heard this and said yes, and then repeated the method of subduing elixirs as he said just now.
Chapter completed!
