My Daming New Empire

However, now that he has a ready-made Taoist master, and has collected the Taoist internal boxing manuals, it is not difficult to sort out a set of Daoyin techniques that suits him.

"Ji'er, have you chosen your master yet?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "Grandpa, since the Taoist breathing method can strengthen the body, why not spread it widely and let the soldiers practice it for a long time, wouldn't it strengthen the military?"

On the one hand, Zhu Gaoxu said disdainfully: "The poor learn literature and the rich learn martial arts, most of the common people only have enough food and clothing, how can they have the energy to practice martial arts?"

Zhu Zhanji asked back: "The second uncle is talking about foreign boxing, right? Taoist breathing can be practiced even by children, and you can practice without too many supplements!"

Zhu Di laughed and said, "Good idea, I'll ask later if there are any priests who are willing to teach in the army."

(Weakly ask for a recommendation ticket...)

Chapter 9 Apprenticeship

Zhu Zhanji chose not one master, but two, both of whom looked like gods and crane bones, with the demeanor of a worldly master, and their methods really fit the image of a worldly master.

Zhu Zhanji secretly pointed out that after showing Zhu Di, someone reported the information of the two of them in a short while.

There is not much difference in age between the two, the one with white face and beardless is called Yiqingzi, and the lay name is Zhonglihe, who is said to be a direct descendant of Zhongliquan.

Zhongliquan is the prototype of Zhongli in the Eight Immortals, named Yunfang, a native of Jingzhao Xianyang in the late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties, a famous qigong master, and is said to be one of the Eight Immortals.It is called "Han Zhongli".

The name comes from Du Fu's poem "I heard about Wei's sister, but I am far away from Han Zhongli".Zhongli is a surname, and Han refers to the era of "Later Han" established by Liu Song in the Five Dynasties.

He went to Zhongnan Mountain to practice Taoism because of avoiding war, and then went to Sichuan. Li Zhenduo, a Taoist priest in Jintang, gave him "Taiyi Dao Gui Huo Talisman Jue", so Zhong Liquan had a deep knowledge of inner alchemy, and wrote "Song of Breaking the Mystery and Righteous Way", Qigong monographs such as "Lingbao Pian", "Zhixuan Pian", "Sancheng Pian after the Elbow".

It is said that Lu Dongbin worshiped him as his teacher, and Chen Pu, a Qigong master of the Five Dynasties, also received Taoism from Zhongliquan in Qingcheng Mountain in central Sichuan.

Of course, many stories are rumored and deified.But it's true that Yiqingzi has a good kung fu.Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to become an enshrinement of the Qingcheng Sect as a lay disciple.

He practiced the ancestral Kungfu Zhongli Baduanjin. When he was performing just now, he did a set of Kungfu without blushing or panting, which let Zhu Zhanji, a knowledgeable person, know how powerful he is.

The other is the Wudang Taoist Priest Xuanzhen who even Zhu Di knew. He is the contact person of the Wudang faction in the capital and met Zhu Di once.

Needless to say about the Wudang sect, Zhang Sanfeng is a well-known figure in martial arts novels, and he is not good in the real world.

From Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Di, Wudang is highly praised. I don’t know if the Nanya Palace and the Golden Dome have been built. Zhu Zhanji also hopes to have a chance to see it.

They are not without family and sect, and their backgrounds are clean, so Zhu Di directly asked them to come over and asked them if they would like to be Zhu Zhanji's master.

Zhu Zhanji originally thought that the two of them were going to compete for the top, but he didn't expect that the two of them were also old acquaintances.They made room for each other, Zhu Zhanji simply didn't give them a chance to make room, and kept them by his side together.

As for their treatment, Zhu Zhanji didn't talk about it at all, so Zhu Di would naturally not treat them badly.

The two of them couldn't live in the palace, so Zhu Di arranged for them to live temporarily in the apse of the Taimiao in the imperial city, and each of them arranged for two little Taoist priests to serve them.

They don't need to do anything else. It is their job to go to the side hall of Wenyuan Pavilion where Zhu Zhanji practices essays to teach him for an hour every afternoon.

It is not far from the palace city, and you only need to pass through Zuoque Gate, Zuoye Gate, and Zuoshun Gate to enter Wenyuan Pavilion.

The two masters, Xuanzhen from Wudang, are authentic Taoist disciples.Wudang was deeply favored by the royal family, and they did their best for Zhu Zhanji. They also wanted to take this opportunity to ask Zhu Di to build more Taoist temples for them.

Yiqingzi lived in Qingcheng, and his family had two major branches. In Weinan and Sichuan, both were big families.A secular family naturally wants to ask for more.

As long as he wants something, Zhu Zhanji is naturally not afraid that he won't try his best, after all, the world belongs to the old Zhu's family.

In terms of force, Yiqingzi is slightly stronger than Xuanzhen, but he knows very little about Taoist allusions, and often asks Xuanzhen for the scriptures.

Martial arts in reality are not like in novels, they are just practicing a kind of internal force, otherwise they will go crazy.

Whether it is Yiqingzi's Zhongli Baduanjin or Professor Xuanzhen's Taiji Neijiaquan, there is no conflict between the two.

If you really want to go crazy, you need deep internal strength.In reality, there is no such kind of internal force that can turn mountains and seas.

Zhu Zhanji was only six years old, and he was still ignorant in the eyes of the two priests, but they taught him Taoist knowledge and taught him to identify the meridians of the whole body, but Zhu Zhanji knew it all at once, which shocked them all.

Zhu Zhanji didn't care at all that he would shock the world, as long as Zhu Di's love for him continued, no one in this world could slander him.

Moreover, since Zhu Zhanji first appeared in front of ministers in early May, his wise name has spread throughout Jinling.

Zhu Di gave up the idea of ​​moving the capital, and all the ministers present gave credit to Zhu Zhanji.

The millions of residents in Jinling all praised Zhu Zhanji, and they are also the people who are most grateful to Zhu Zhanji.If the capital is really moved, I don't know how many big families in Jinling will stay away from the power center of the court.

Therefore, when these vested interests mentioned the son of King Yan, they all praised him again and again, thinking that he had the appearance of a wise master.

Zhu Zhanji didn't know anything about it, and his daily time was fully arranged, immersing himself in the learning of new knowledge.

In modern times, Zhou You can be regarded as a martial idiot.

In the first life, he began to learn various martial arts when he was an adult, and he did not become a minor success until he was 35 years old.

The second generation achieved minor success at the age of 20, and formed his own martial arts system when he was less than 30 years old, integrating various martial arts into one, and he can be regarded as a master of the generation.

In this life, he practiced martial arts at the age of six.Baduanjin and Taiji Neijiaquan are both the pinnacle treasures of traditional Chinese martial arts, and now there are two masters teaching them, so he is confident that they can achieve results.

No matter how early it was, it was impossible, because the developmental stage of the human body would be considered complete only when it was reached, and before that, he did not dare to torment his body too much.

Taoist kung fu, whether it is Daoyin technique, breathing technique, or breathing technique, actually has only two complete systems.

One is visualization.Breathing method, exhalation technique, guiding technique, the most important thing is to concentrate and calm one's breath, contemplating one's own body.

Inner observation, thinking, observation of the mind, observation of the sky, observation of the nose, and observation of the earth, all these methods require the practitioner to be able to have nothing else in the body, nothing in the mind, and replace the world with the body.

The second system is circulation.Taiji, Liangyi, heaven and earth, yin and yang, these are two sides that oppose each other, attract each other, depend on each other, and support each other.

Establishing a stable circulation system between the two is actually the purpose of cultivation.

When these two conditions are met, the greatest potential of the human body can be developed naturally.

However, the biggest difference between internal kung fu and external kung fu is that you can't master the progress of the practice.

If you are a foreigner, you can run 5000 meters today and 6000 meters tomorrow. This is progress.Today I can lift 120 catties, and after practice I can lift [-] catties, which is also progress.

All progress is visible.

But in internal kung fu, many people can't feel their progress even after practicing it for a few months or a few years.

This also makes many people who have no hope of getting started deny the existence of internal martial arts.

However, negation does not mean non-existence.

Traveling around in modern times, relying on yoga in the first life, I touched the threshold of internal martial arts, and half a foot has already stepped in.

In the second life, he can be regarded as a real beginner.

Only limited by the depth of development of yoga, it is not far to go.After Zhou You touched the ceiling, he kept trying to break through, but failed.
