Chapter 18 Vitality

Seeing the progress of "Mission [-]", Hua Zhenxing decided to keep his word, got up and said to Rochaide: "If you want to learn Yuan Yangshu, then I will teach you. The method is not complicated, the key is whether you can really do it. Now I will teach you the posture of meditation, which is the foundation... Hey, your flexibility is not bad?"

Rochard: "I have practiced yoga, which is also a mysterious physical and mental cultivation method from the East."

Hua Zhenxing: "No wonder, many people can't even squat down on their heels, let alone sitting cross-legged like this... Forget it, let go of your legs, it's too reluctant and affects your state, it's as simple as that. Just sit cross-legged, the premise is that you are stable, just like you are rooted, if you can find this feeling, even if you are sitting on a stool without cross-legs."

Hua Zhenxing spent more than ten minutes teaching Rochard to adjust his posture. He just tried to explain it as much as possible, and let Rochard memorize it first, and then slowly try to find the real feeling.

"Stable" is followed by "Zhong", just like taking root and growing upwards, from the perineum, the tail lug to the jade pillow and Baihui.The perineum is against Baihui, the tail is against the jade pillow, the tip of the nose is against the head... The eyes cannot see, that's what I'm looking for. "Zhong" is followed by "Zheng", the neck is straight and the shoulders are flat, the waist is straight and the hips are flat, and the body is upright, qi and blood are flat.

"Positive" is followed by "Loose", as if Baihui has a thread to lift the body upwards, naturally retract the jaws and embrace the chest, sink the shoulders and pull out the back, relax the body and relax the mind at the same time. "Loose" is based on the premise of "stable", "moderate" and "positive", not just relaxation.

"Loose" is followed by "quiet", which is said to be calm.Getting started with Yuan Yang Technique is not complicated.

The so-called concentration is not mysterious. It is an ability that everyone must master from infancy to adulthood. It is similar to what people often call "concentration", which is concentration.Although everyone can master it, the degree of mastery is different. When used in behavior, the so-called academic scum and academic bully are often divided like this.

It sounds contradictory to achieve a state of relaxation and concentration at the same time, because when the mind is highly concentrated, people are prone to tension and fatigue, which tests the quality of the will and is difficult to last.Usually the closest experience to this state is a bit like finding a comfortable position and environment to watch a movie.

If a person is completely attracted by the film, he once forgets his own existence, and also ignores other things around him... When the film ends, it feels like a dream, which is close to relaxation and concentration. state.But this is a state caused by a single external stimulus, and not everyone can achieve by adjusting their body and mind on their own.

There are unique requirements for the concentration of the mind in Yang Yuan surgery. The first step is posture and breathing to achieve relaxation and naturalness through physical and mental adjustment.First adjust the posture in place, and then stop other conscious activities in a awake state to achieve relaxed concentration.This usually requires a relationship between the heart, and Yang Yuan surgery starts with breathing, and it is abdominal breathing.

There is a term called "Yi Shou Dantian". It is difficult to explain clearly to people like Rochaide. In fact, there is no need to explain or even know the concept.How to guard Dantian?If you think you have a place called Dantian in your heart, you are wrong. "Thinking" means dispersing, and if one wants to disperse, one cannot enter the country. The so-called entry means reaching a certain state.

The way to get started with Dantian is to focus on abdominal breathing.

Where is the "Dantian" at this time?There is no need to measure a few inches down from the navel.Everyone has hip bones, and the center of the line connecting the hip bones on both sides of the abdomen is where the dantian is located, or the approximate location of the so-called "lower dantian".It doesn't have to be found, it is the core area of ​​abdominal breathing, and it can be felt naturally.

There are two types of abdominal breathing, cis and reverse.The so-called cis-style means that the lower abdomen expands when inhaling and retracts when exhaling, and the reverse-style is the opposite.Introductory Yang Yuan Technique requires inverse abdominal breathing. When inhaling, the lower abdomen is retracted, and when exhaling, it is released, with Dantian as the core.

People who have not received special training may find it awkward. At first, they need to be deliberately controlled. This is a process of gradually reaching concentration.The consciousness at this time is not thinking about the problem, but just controlling the breathing and the body. If it is too deliberate, it will lead to insufficient relaxation.

The standard of relaxation and naturalness is to transition from deliberate to unintentional state, focus on breathing, do not need to deliberately and naturally maintain reverse abdominal breathing, and adjust the breathing intensity at the same time, so that it is long and silent...

How to measure that the practitioner has already achieved results, some people say that the lower abdomen is hot, some people say that the whole body is slightly numb, and some people say that the arm will be raised involuntarily.These descriptions are relatively vague and difficult to quantify scientifically.If you really enter the state, you will feel it; if you don't experience it, it's useless.

How long does it take to practice to reach this standard?There is no limit, and it will not work for a long time if you cannot enter the state. If you can enter the state, you may do it in the first practice.For example, after Hua Zhenxing finished his narration, Rothschild was asked to try it on his own. After about 10 minutes, Rothschild suddenly exclaimed: "Hua, this is actually true!"

People are sometimes startled by their own reactions. When he shouted like this, he was out of the state just now. Hua Zhenxing smiled slightly: "Isn't it normal to have a reaction?"

Rochard: "You're telling the truth! I swear I didn't think of anything else."

Hua Zhenxing: "Why are you looking at me like this? If you don't believe me, why should you learn from me. If you want to believe, there's no need to be so surprised."

Rochard nodded again and again: "I really believe it now, what is the principle, is it exercising ability?"

Hua Zhenxing shook his head and said: "If you think so, I don't know if it's right or not. Of course it will have the effect of training, but if you use it like this, I'm afraid you will go astray. At least the nourishing technique I learned is not used like this. It's just the first step in getting started, and the purpose is just to make you feel alive."

Rochard: "What kind of vitality do you feel?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I don't know how to translate this term for you, saying that the power of life, the characteristics of life, the sign of life, the desire of life... may all be a little related but not very accurate, this can only be understood.

The so-called 'yuan' in Yangyuanshu refers to vitality. I can only tell you the pronunciation of this Dongguo Chinese directly. It is difficult to translate it. It uses the same word as the Dongguo currency unit, but it is not a mean. "

Rochard: "I see what you mean, it's so abstract, it's invisible and intangible."

Hua Zhenxing shook his head and said, "You are a doctor, why would you say such a thing? Life is everywhere, and you touch it every day. A doctor's job is to save lives, in fact, it is to maintain and stimulate the vitality of patients. To die is to fail in therapy. It's something you deal with every day, abstract but real."

Rochard: "Can I understand it as the maintenance mechanism and ability in life?"

Hua Zhenxing thought for a while: "You can say that, but don't just define such a definition, it's just one of the manifestations of vitality. Anyway, the old man Yang who taught me told me so, don't take it easy if you don't understand something. I understand it by myself, but I can observe it and feel it.

Dr. Luo, have you ever raised flowers?Some flowers can survive by cuttings, remove two branches and insert them into the soil, water and fertilize.One branch will grow into a new flower, but the other branch will wither, why is this?It is because the former retains its vitality, while the latter's vitality dissipates.So it's visible and it's everywhere. "

Having said that, Hua Zhenxing looked around, stretched out his hand and pointed not far away and said, "Just like that undead rose, which is only less than one meter in size, it has actually survived for thousands of years. It has only two leaves, Nonstop growth, withered tips, leaves shredded into many strips by the wind..."

Rochard chimed in: "The undead rose? It's not a flower but a leaf? I think it's completely dead!"

Hua Zhenxing: "It just looks dead, but as long as the rainy season comes, the green leaves extend from the roots and hover like a rose. You can see that this plant has been alive for thousands of years."

Speaking of which, he was suddenly stunned, because the "system" in his consciousness jumped out inexplicably, and a new "chunrongdan research task" appeared.

This task does not have the signs of [-], [-] and [-]. It appears directly before the unfinished task [-], at the top of the system. There is also a progress bar behind it, but the completion degree is close to zero, but it is barely displayed. And content.

Discovered one of the basic ingredients of Chunrong Dan: Undead Core

Abilities: Accumulate hair growth, aphrodisiac

The method of harvesting and making: The immortal rose plant that is more than a thousand years old can be used as medicine.At the beginning of the heavy rainy season every year, the core of the rhizome is taken, which is about three inches in thickness and one foot in length, and is light green and yellowish like jasper.Dip in ether for cold extraction, and when the liquid color changes, dry in the shade and take the crystals for later use.Or extract its essence directly by the method of imperial objects. The quality is like green granulated sugar, the taste is pungent and dry, and it is slightly poisonous.

The Method of Refining Medicine: Not Available

At this moment, Hua Zhenxing's head seemed to be opened, and suddenly recalled some content in the dream.In that dream, he had read the original formula of Chun Rong Dan, like a thick dictionary.A complete set of Chunrong Pill has 360 pieces in total, and the composition of each piece is different. It is processed from a total of [-] medicinal materials, and the immortal core is one of them.

When refining Chunrong Dan, one hundred and eight medicinal materials are divided into five groups: aphrodisiac, summer medicine, autumn medicine, winter medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine.

This aphrodisiac is neither aphrodisiac nor aphrodisiac, but is used in medicinal herbs to be taken in spring; this traditional Chinese medicine is also not a traditional Chinese medicine, which means neutralizing medicine.

Hua Zhenxing "remembered" these all at once, as if something he had forgotten was suddenly found in his memory, which should be what he saw in the Dan Fang.But no matter how he thought about it, he could only remember so much for the time being.

It seems that how much this "Chunrong Dan development task" can be completed depends not only on whether he can see these medicinal materials in reality, but also on his current understanding ability. Show... Hua Zhenxing was stunned and fell into deep thought for a while.

In the distant night, two old men were sitting in the haystack chatting.Mo Shangtong said, "You scared the child, and suddenly you sent him a task. You look stupid."

Yang Tehong: "It doesn't matter, Xiaohua has a strong ability to adjust. I got him a system and sent him two tasks. You can see that he is very calm! Since he dreamed of something like Chunrong Dan, then Find a way to think about it, don't worry, take it slowly."

Mo Shangtong: "Why did you let him use Chitose orchid? As far as I know, there is no Chitose orchid in any Dongguo medicine prescription, and even the [-]th-turn Purple Gold Pill does not contain Chitose orchid."
