    ?

    A clear stream flowed out of the forest, circled before Meng Qi's eyes, and then flowed down to the foot of the mountain.

    Covered by green trees nearby, the mist filled the mountains and forests, and the air was extremely fresh, which made Meng Qi feel refreshed physically and mentally.

    Before dawn, the morning bell rang, waking Meng Qi up. After learning the Sanskrit mantra in the morning class, he and Zhenhui were arranged by Xuanxin to carry water here, surrounded by Zhenying, Zhenguan and others,  And the monks of the monastery who used water for tempering.

    Looking at the stream, Meng Qi inadvertently saw his current appearance from the slowly flowing water.

    This is a child with eyes like ink, eyebrows like distant mountains, carved in powder and jade, about twelve or thirteen years old, only a little older than Zhenhui.

    "He looks really good, he used to look like he was pampered." Meng Qi praised "self", but then lamented, what's the use for a monk?  I must return to vulgarity!

    He sank the wooden barrel to the bottom of the water, intending to test his own strength. At the same time, he told Zhenhui beside him: "Little brother, you can only pick half of it, don't be brave."

    "Yeah." Zhenhui looked at the fish swimming in the stream and licked her lips.

    Just when Meng Qi was about to lift the wooden barrel, he suddenly felt someone watching him, so he turned his head and followed his gaze, and happened to see a group of fairly familiar monks who were shaved by Xuanku together with him  Among the little novice monks, among them, Meng Qi could not remember many names, but only one of them saw his true virtue.

    Zhende's eyebrows were rather messy, and his cheeks were long and thin. Seeing Meng Qi looking back, he raised his head slightly, as if a little arrogant and proud.

    Seeing this, the other young novice monks around him turned from bitter faces to happy ones. It seemed that after seeing their "companions" living worse than themselves, the hardships of life in the monastery vanished.

    Yes, we entered the monastery, and Zhending and Zhenhui can only be handyman monks. This is something to be happy and proud of.

    Zhende opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but after glancing at the precept monk next to him, he still closed his mouth, and lifted the wooden barrel out of the stream, two full barrels.

    Meng Qi curled his lips, and decided not to be as knowledgeable as a child. One day, he would enter the monk's academy and learn the unique skills of Shaolin!

    He got rid of his messy thoughts and lifted the two wooden barrels vigorously.

    As soon as the wooden barrel left the water, Meng Qi was startled, how could it be so light?

    He felt that he didn't use much strength, and the wooden barrel was lifted up.

    "Is it heavy?" Meng Qi asked Zhenhui suspiciously.

    Zhenhui walked over obediently, and lifted the two full buckets of water in front of Mengqi, with bulging veins and contorted face, then nodded: "Heavy."

    "It's not about the water?" Meng Qi took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Could it be that this body is born with good strength? Uh, look at the skin, clothes, accessories, and the Marquis that the horse-faced uncle said, this body  Physically, I am afraid that he came from a noble family, he may have practiced martial arts before, he has laid a good foundation, and his strength is much stronger than that of ordinary children."

    No matter what the reason was, Meng Qi was no longer afraid of carrying water. He bent down, picked up two buckets of water, and followed the team of monks in front of him to climb the mountain on the stone steps.

    The team quickly stretched and separated, and the monks who had been tempered for many years were able to walk like flying with iron buckets and water, and soon disappeared into the mountains and forests.

    In order not to attract attention, Meng Qi dragged Zhenhui and other monks to the end, and Zhende and other new monks from the Wu Monastery had not made any progress because they had just entered the monastery for a day, so they were the same.

    Sensing the gazes of Meng Qi and others, Zhende and other young novice monks from the monk's monastery blushed, lowered their waists one after another, took a good posture, and strode forward, not wanting to be with this group of handyman monks.

    Seeing their speed increase, Meng Qi's heart moved, and he imitated them to lower his waist and put on a good posture. Suddenly, he felt that the wooden bucket filled with water became lighter.

    "This posture is very simple" Meng Qi groped for the technique of exerting force to make him more relaxed, and gradually accelerated his pace. Before he knew it, he got rid of Zhenhui and surpassed Zhende.

    "Hmph, you have to be steady at the beginning, or you won't be able to move forward!" Zhende said angrily behind Meng Qi's back.

    Meng Qi let out a hey, and felt that he had to change to a big wooden barrel tomorrow, otherwise there would be no effect of exercising.

    However, the mountain road was difficult, and it was going up again. Meng Qi was still sweating and out of breath when he arrived.

    "Pay attention to breathing control." Suddenly, a serious voice sounded in his ear,

    Meng Qi looked sideways, only to find that the patrol monk stood next to him at some point, demonstrating the rhythm of his breathing. He was surprised and delighted, learned to adjust his breathing, and soon lost his energy.With a smile on his face, he stopped talking and led Meng Qi and others into a side hall in a serious manner.

    "Senior Brother Xuanen, this is the new novice from the Miscellaneous Workyard." After Xuanxin whispered the Buddha's name, he pointed to Meng Qi and the others.

    Sitting high in front of the chanting hall is a skinny old monk with snow-white eyebrows, also wearing a yellow monk robe, with books and wooden fish in front of him, and a ruler in his hand.

    "Sit down separately." He pointed to the half-empty futons below, and there was a small table in front of each futon.

    Meng Qi, Zhenhui and the others did not dare to speak. They each found a seat and knelt down. After waiting for another half a quarter of an hour, the young monks arrived one after another, including Zhende and other "companions" who entered the temple together.

    They looked at Meng Qi and the others in amazement. They obviously did not expect that the handyman monks could also study in the seminary.

    Xuan En knocked on the wooden fish in front of him, calming down all the little monks, and then said in a neutral voice: "In the next three years, as long as you don't violate the temple rules, you can come here to read and write at this time every day, except  In addition to ordinary writing, you have to learn Sanskrit in order to study ancient scriptures."

    He paused and said, "But before I teach you characters today, I have to guide you into martial arts."

    Hearing what he said, Meng Qi's spirits perked up, and his back subconsciously straightened up. Can the handyman monk also be guided?

    Such doubts also made Zhende and others' eyes widen. What is the difference between the Handyman's House and the Monk's House?

    "Whether it's Taoist Jinggong or secular techniques, the first step on the road of martial arts practice is similar but slightly different. It is for the initial opening of the energy channels, strengthening the spirit and strengthening the body." Xuanen ignored the doubts of Zhende and others,  Said self-servingly.

    Meng Qi listened intently, for fear of missing a word.

    "This step is called 'Hundred Days Building Foundation' in Taoism, which means laying the foundation of martial arts practice. The so-called 'Hundred Days', in normal terms, within a hundred days, Ren Du and other meridians are full of energy, and my Buddhism calls it  It is called 'Cultivating the Body in Concentration', because only when the mind is in a calm state, without dispersing or chaotic, the true energy can be transformed naturally, fill the acupoints, and open the Qi channels, which is commonly known as 'opening the channels'."

    Xuan En roughly introduced the main points of "cultivating the body in a fixed way" (building a foundation in a hundred days): "The human body has 365 big orifices.  The big orifice needs nine breaths of true energy to be sufficient"

    "Every quarter of an hour in meditation, only a breath of true energy can be transformed. Therefore, according to the daily practice time of each person, this step can be completed in about a hundred days to a year."

    "When entering meditation, the six sense organs are pure, without delusions or urgency. After a quarter of an hour, there will be a transformation of true energy, half of which will go up from the Du meridian to the Baihui point on the top of the head, and then go down to the upper jaw, forming a mouthful of 'Golden Jin', and the other half,  Then it goes up from the Ren meridian, reaches the lower jaw, and turns into a mouthful of 'jade liquid'."

    "When the 'Jinjin Yuye' meets, it will merge into a mouthful of clear and sweet saliva, which is called 'nectar' in my Buddhist school. After swallowing the 'nectar', fill it into the corresponding acupoints"

    Xuan En repeated the main points a few times and then said: "When the 'Cultivation in Concentration' is completed, the energy and spirit will be full, the Qi channels will be opened first, and the body will be strong. Only in this way can we enter the next step of 'Meditation and Accumulation of Qi'.  It is called 'Long Nurturing Holy Child'."

    After finishing speaking, he asked all the young monks to try to enter meditation.

    This is not meditation, it only requires calmness of mind, and it is not difficult. For children with few thoughts, it is relatively simple.

    However, as an adult, Meng Qi had a lot of miscellaneous thoughts, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. This made him extremely impatient, but the more impatient, the more unable to settle down.

    When he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, he suddenly felt a cool feeling in his chest, and his mind was cleared.

    "The little Jade Buddha?" Meng Qi was overjoyed, he didn't think too much about it, and slowly calmed down his mind, and entered into a samadhi.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
