Chapter 2 Going astray
"From tonight, you must concentrate on cultivating your internal strength." Lu Zhong said sternly. He has been spoiled by Lu Cheng since he was a child. He was afraid of falling when he held it in his palm, and afraid of melting it when he held it in his mouth.
Since the age of five, Lu Zhong asked Lu Cheng to cultivate internal strength. However, at that time, Lu Cheng was afraid of being tired of Lu Cheng, so he chose the hanging leg sitting style for Lu Cheng. There are two kinds of sitting styles for Lu Cheng to cultivate internal strength. One is the cross-legged sitting style, and the cross-legged sitting style is divided into double plates, single plates, and free plates.
The double-sided cross-legged side is placed on the right thigh, the right foot is placed on the left thigh, and the hands are placed in front of the lower abdomen. This sitting method is just to stabilize and not shake, and it is not easy to do without considerable effort. The single cross-legged side is the left leg on the upper and right leg on the lower, and the gesture is as before. Free cross-legged side is a habit for ordinary people, and they feel that they are not suitable for Lu Cheng, so they chose a hanging leg sitting style for him.
The so-called hanging leg sitting posture means sitting on a chair with appropriate height and height, keeping the thighs horizontal. The calves are vertical, the legs are parallel to the ground, and two fists can be placed between the knees. But even so, after a few months, Lu Cheng has made no progress. Later, he changed to free plates, single plates and double plates, but Lu Cheng was always unable to make progress.
So much so that a few years later, many people thought that Lu Cheng was a waste of martial arts practice. But Lu Zhong still did not give up. He thought that he was too indulging, which instead harmed Lu Cheng.
"I have told you many times about precautions for practicing qigong. I will emphasize it again today." Lu Zhong asked Lu Zhong to sit cross-legged on the bed and use a double-sided sitting style.
"Dad, stop talking, isn't it just mouth, eyes, ears, and anger?" Lu Cheng said immediately. Sometimes his father's nagging is simply a punishment.
"First swallow your vital energy and then look inward, pay attention to your breathing, and don't use your mouth." Lu Zhong still reminded him.
When practicing internal energy and entering into meditation, there are requirements for the facial features. For example, the mouth should be closed naturally, and the tip of the tongue should be rolled up and gently pressed against the upper palate. If saliva is secreted too much, put down the tongue and swallow it slowly. This is called "swallowing". In fact, it is the eyes. You should close your eyes and look inward. When practicing at that step, you should look inward. If you are distracted and your thoughts are like a tide, open your eyes, look at the void or when the tip of your nose is too small, interrupt your thoughts, close your eyes and sit again. This is called "the sword of wisdom cuts the messy silk".
Again, the ears should be used to pay attention to your breathing, keep it calm and natural, without rough sounds. Finally, breathing is the key issue of the internal strength operation method, and the more important it is. You must pay attention to natural breathing, do not intentionally breathe deeply or fast or slow breathing. First, pay special attention to exhaling, let it be natural when inhaling, and there is no disadvantage to flow. The most important thing is not to breathe with mouth.
He had been reminding Lu Cheng of these matters ten years ago. Seeing Lu Cheng closing his eyes slightly and breathing naturally according to his requirements, he quietly withdrew from the room. Practicing qigong requires a quiet environment. Although he cannot provide a secret room for his disciples like Songjiazhuang, he will also try his best to create a relatively quiet environment for Lu Cheng. When Lu Cheng was practicing, he sat at the door and had to wait for Lu Cheng to finish his exercises.
In fact, Lu Zhong didn't know that as soon as he left, Lu Cheng suddenly opened his eyes. It was not because of disturbing Lu Zhong, but had become a habit. He looked up slightly and stretched out his gaze in the gap in the corner of the house. At night in Tianhua Kingdom, the stars were shining, but Lu Cheng was not looking at the stars or the moon, but the night sky!
In fact, since he was five years old, Lu Cheng liked to look at the sky alone. At the beginning, he was very interested in the stars in the night sky, especially those flashing stars, and always felt that the other party was greeting him. But once, when he was bored, he deliberately forgot the stars and the moon, focused on living between the stars and the stars, and staring at the darkest places, which made him find his own interests.
There is boundless darkness between stars. Most people look up at the sky and see the glowing stars and moon. But if these luminous bodies are shielded, a new world will appear. Looking at the darkness in the night sky, the deeper and deeper, the deeper you look, the farther you look, and the farther you look, and the eternal feeling.
Lu Cheng didn't know what kind of changes would bring to him every day. But the more he looked, the stronger his interest would be. Interest is always the best teacher. Even when his father asked him to practice internal energy, he would quickly turn his attention to night vision. For this reason, he specially made a small gap on the roof, so that he could look at the night sky by sitting on the bed.
When he was six years old, Lu Cheng felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable force on his eyebrows, but he didn't know what effect this force had or what impact it would have on his body. He only did what he liked to do. Until now, this force has become less powerful, but he has not yet discovered any special effect.
An hour later, the rain that had already stopped began to fall again, and it became heavier and heavier. The clouds were very thick tonight, and from time to time you could see lightning flashes in the sky, followed by waves of thunder. This had a certain impact on Lu Cheng's night vision, but Lu Cheng had already entered the dark vision, rain, lightning, and thunder, which were extremely disturbing to him. But at this moment, his eyes seemed to penetrate the rain, looking at the night sky in a strange way.
Suddenly, Lu Cheng felt the power in his eyebrows suddenly break out of his body, following his eyes, wearing the gap in the roof, penetrated the water droplets in the air, and shot towards the boundless night sky!
After a long time, Lu Cheng slowly withdrew his gaze. The power at the middle of his eyebrows also returned to his body. Before, Lu Cheng was just looking in the underworld, he felt a vague sense of a power at the middle of his eyebrows. But now, he really felt it. Close his eyes, Lu Cheng's spiritual sense wanted to look at this power inward, and soon, he found that he had made friends with this power.
When Lu Cheng focused all his attention on this power, he found that he could communicate with this power slowly. When he adjusted this power out of his eyebrows, he suddenly drilled into the wall in front. When this power entered the wall, he felt as if he had also walked in. He could see clearly the soil in the wall.
Lu Cheng seemed to have found a favorite toy all of a sudden. He kept retracting this power and then releasing it out. The walls, tables, beds, bedding and even his own body. He didn't know what this power was, so he gave it a name, induction. He didn't know whether this power could defeat the enemy, but he could feel everything. Although the distance was not far, at most it was only ten feet, he seemed to have an invisible hand and eyes.
Even Lu Cheng could sense Lu Zhong sitting outside the door. He felt very guilty and guilty. His father had given him everything, but he was astrayed. After ten years, he had not even broken through the first level of internal strength. Most of his childhood playmates had already developed internal strength, and a few of them even broke through to the two levels of internal strength.
As soon as Lu Cheng got off the mansion, Lu Zhong stood up immediately when he heard the movement. He had been sitting at the door, and even though there was thunder rolling outside, he was indifferent. But when there was movement inside, he stood up suddenly.
"Cheng'er, how about it?" Lu Zhong pushed open the door, grabbed Lu Cheng's wrist, and an internal force penetrated. But soon, he sighed silently and let go of his hand.
"Dad, don't worry, maybe I'm a little different from others, maybe I'll break through the first level at any time." Lu Cheng saw his father's face and knew that he had disappointed him again. However, because of the induction, his confidence has increased greatly. If he thought he could only be a servile man in his life, then now, he is at least the most powerful servile man.
