When it comes to qigong, Xue Chang is not unfamiliar with it. In his previous life, he set off a qigong craze across the country in the 1980s. His father had ordered a complete set of qigong magazines. Even his junior high school class teacher publicly taught students to practice qigong during self-study classes. Influenced by movies and martial arts novels, he practiced seriously in the magazine with a longing when he was a child, but because there was no effect, it ended up in the end.

Now he is in a world where martial arts are prosperous. Before that, there were Arhat Fist, Shaolin Knife and Stick Technique. He sat cross-legged according to the original owner's memory, spread his hands open, folded them together, and put his palms on three inches below the navel of his abdomen. Then he closed his eyes, empty his thoughts, and slightly pressed his tongue to the upper palate, and began to inhale slowly.

At the same time, I was thinking: the essence of heaven and earth is slowly sucked into the body through the nasal cavity, passing through the esophagus, chest cavity, abdomen like streams, and finally into the dantian below the navel. Then the breath in the dantian rotates, gathering the turbid air in the body, flowing up along the previous route, and slowly exhaling through the nasal cavity...

The entire practice process seemed very simple. Xue Chang even found that the qigong he taught himself when he was a child was very similar to it. However, when he really started to imagine, he found that he could not devote himself wholeheartedly. As soon as he closed his eyes, he thought about his parents, his thoughts of school, his doubts about the past life, his doubts about the world, his doubts about the original owner's life... Countless thoughts poured into his mind. The more he wanted to eliminate them, the more he felt his thoughts were confused.

A city person has been under the impact of a large amount of modern information for many years. It is difficult for him to be ethereal and focused on the spiritual level. Fortunately, Xue Chang has a tough personality. Although he is impatient, he still does not give up and insists on breathing according to his memory. Gradually... gradually... he feels that there are fewer distractions in his heart, more focused on breathing, and the guidance of his thoughts on the qi becomes smoother. This is like a person who is difficult to fall asleep. If he always closes his eyes and lies on the bed, he will always fall asleep unconsciously at a certain period of time...

I don’t know how long it took, but Xue Chang suddenly felt that the Dantian touched by his palm was slightly swollen and hot.

He thought this was an illusion, but he subconsciously put more attention into his dantian and put his palms tighter. After a few breaths, he was surprised: Yes, the dantian is indeed getting hot! This shows that the breathing method has indeed worked!

Xue Chang's confidence increased and he focused on practicing, but not long after, he felt tired, his energy was dispersed, and he felt lethargy, and it was difficult to maintain his guidance of the qi.

According to memory, Xue Chang knew that the practice of internal energy tonight could only end here. His palms left his dantian and slowly moved up and down three times to adjust his breath.

But he did not open his eyes immediately because he saw that the data about himself in the system page in his mind changed again: the Shaolin breathing method is still marked as "unfamiliar", but the data of "internal force?" above it has become "internal force 4"...

This is a big gap compared with other data. In addition to Xue Chang's experience of cultivation just now, he felt that the reason why there is such a big gap is probably because the practice of internal skills is more difficult than other martial arts. It is impossible to practice frequently in one day like boxing and equipment. It is not easy to combine qi and spirit, and it consumes the mind and is relatively inefficient...

Xue Chang recalled the scene that he almost couldn't stick to before, and was quite touched by the "unfamiliarity" of Shaolin's breathing method. He made up his mind to practice every day in the future and become proficient as soon as possible.

At this time, Xue Chang opened his eyes. The bonfire in front of him was much weaker than before. The slightly beating flames could only drive away the darkness around the fire.

Xu Yi was lying on the ground opposite Xue Chang, and he was already asleep. The same was true for the little wolf who was held in his arms. Behind Xue Chang was a bed made of many hay, which was obviously from the hands of the little apprentice he had just accepted: it seemed that his previous practice took a long time, which made this sensible little guy have to go to bed early after waiting for a long time.

Xue Chang stood up and rubbed his slightly sore legs, walked to Xu Xi and looked down: This boy, who seemed to be only eight or nine years old, was actually almost fourteen, curled up in a ball, clenched his fists, frowned, and his breathing was a little rapid...

Sleep is a rest of your body and mind, but he obviously gives people a state of tension and alertness. Could it be that the huge pressure caused by the wandering and begging life in the past few years has caused him to not relax when sleeping?... Xue Chang thought of Xu Xi's lonely and helpless life, and felt very pity in his heart. He bent down slowly and couldn't help but want to reach out and wipe off the dirty black mud stained with kowtow on Xu Xi's forehead.

Unexpectedly, before his hands were touching, the little wolf in Xu Xi's arms suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time, he was about to scream, and when he saw that the person approaching was Xue Chang, he immediately stopped abruptly, put his head on Xu Xi's arm, and closed his eyes again.

But Xu Xi has woken up: "Master..."

He blinked his sleepy eyes and wanted to sit up, but was stopped by Xue Chang: "You are tired for a day, hurry up and go to bed-" At this point, he suddenly remembered something, picked up Xu Xi, placed it on the thick grass bed, and said in a stern voice: "Since you have become my teacher, then you have to listen to me. Now the teacher will give you the first task - don't get up, let me fall asleep immediately!"

Xu Xi was stunned and struggled to leave the grass shop.

Xue Chang immediately said with a stern face, "If you don't even listen to my first order, then don't be my apprentice!"

Xu Xi could only lie down obediently and close his eyes, but after tossing and turning, his heart was quite uneasy.

The little wolf couldn't sleep well because of this, so he had to run to Xue Chang and lie down.

Xue Chang stood quietly until he saw Xu Xi no longer churning and fell asleep calmly, then he stretched his waist, lay down on the spot, pulled the little wolf into his arms, and half pillowed on its soft fur.

The little wolf struggled for a few times, and seeing that it was difficult to break free from Xue Chang's arms, he had no choice but to change to a more comfortable position, leaned against Xue Chang, and closed his eyes.

Xue Chang couldn't fall asleep for a while, not because of the coldness of the ground, perhaps because of the elixir, or perhaps because the original master had practiced for many years and was picked up again, the heat in his body was flowing slowly, making it difficult to invade cold and dampness. But the bizarre experience of this day made him recall it, and in the late night, his longing for his parents and friends was particularly strong...

Perhaps this is just a dream, and when you wake up tomorrow, everything will return to reality... But if that's the case, you will return to that familiar world, live an ordinary life from 9 to 5 like other ordinary people, galloping through the world, and enjoying revenge can only exist in novels and movies... Countless thoughts circling in your mind, which made Xue Chang not dare to close his eyes and fall asleep for a moment, but just staring at the flames that were about to extinguish before him, and was stunned...

"Master, Master!..." Xue Chang was pushed awake while sleeping. He opened his sleepy eyes wide and looked at the blurry figure in front of him. After a moment, he shouted softly: "Xu Xi?"
