If you want to learn martial arts, you must first understand its principles and operating mechanisms. It is similar to writing a program. You must first understand the basic structure of the thing itself.
After knowing the algorithm, you can proceed step by step, and play, modify and fill in the algorithm one by one.
With this in mind, Ye Shuo asked a lot of questions, such as -
"Wu Yi Wu Yi, what exactly is this internal force? How is it formed?"
"Wu Yi Wu Yi, is there a fixed route for the inner force to flow? Does it depend on personal performance, or is there something else? Are there any taboos that must not be touched?"
"Can everyone cultivate this inner strength, or does it require certain conditions to be met?"
"Does learning martial arts require the assistance of a technique? What is the difference between one technique and another?"
...and so on.
Because the little prince asked some very simple questions, and basically you can find the answers by flipping through the book.
Besides, Wu Yi had never heard of anyone who could accomplish anything just by asking. If he wanted to get started, he needed someone to watch over him carefully and teach him patiently. Among all the secret guards, Wu Yi was a talented person picked out of a hundred, otherwise he would not have been able to serve the emperor.
But despite this, when Wu Yi first started practicing, it took him a full half month to slowly feel the Qi with the guidance of his leader. This is even more difficult for ordinary people who have no foundation and no one to teach them.
Therefore, Wu Yi just thought that Ye Shuo was just a curious child and answered his question casually.
Afterwards, Ye Shuo quickly understood that the so-called internal force was actually just a kind of energy. As for the reason for its formation, no one knew, but it had always existed from ancient times to the present.
Ye Shuo guessed that this was probably what made this world different from his previous life.
Since anyone with the right physique can practice it, regardless of occasion, time or place, the difference here is probably that it exists in the air that everyone can access. It is colorless and odorless, so it exists like oxygen, but is invisible to the naked eye.
Ye Shuo quickly accepted this matter.
As for the differences between the exercises, there are actually some differences. Just like mathematics, there are some fixed formulas, but the solutions are very different. The same problem can be solved in many ways, some are more convenient and quicker, while others are more complicated.
But overall, they all lead to the same goal, which is to make the "qi" in the body more solid and powerful.
"You mean, the location of Dantian is here, right?" Ye Shuo opened his eyes, covered his stomach and insisted that it was Dantian.
Wu Yi was caught off guard and subconsciously wanted to correct: "No, little prince, it's here." As he said that, he pointed to the place below Ye Shuo's navel, where the four acupoints of Yinjiao, Qihai, Shimen and Guanyuan intersected.
"Then..." Ye Shuo pretended to understand and moved his hand down a little bit: "Is it here?"
Although it is a little lower, it is still far away from the dantian.
He obviously didn't understand.
“It’s still not right.”
After several attempts, Wu Yi considered for a moment and said, "My lord, I'm sorry."
As he spoke, under Ye Shuo's expectant gaze, Wu Yi's palm gently pressed towards Ye Shuo's dantian.
In just a moment, Wu Yi withdrew his hand.
In an instant, Ye Shuo felt a heat in his dantian, and something seemed to have appeared in his body out of thin air. He immediately realized that this should be Wu Yi's internal force.
However, this heat was not Ye Shuo's own after all. His untrained body was like a funnel. The heat was stored for less than two breaths before it quickly dissipated.
Wu Yi just wanted to answer his questions in the simplest and quickest way, so naturally he wouldn't put in much effort.
Although he was looking at Wu Yi with surprise on his face, Ye Shuo was secretly recording the trajectory of the activity of this internal force.
From bottom to top, they are Guanyuan, Mingmen, Zhongshu, Zhiyang, Lingtai, Juque... to Shenting, Baihui and Fengchi.
From top to bottom, they are Qihai, Fushe, Huiyin...Jimen, Yingu, Sanyinjiao and Yongquan.
From left to right and from right to left, there are seven academies respectively. In total, this heat passes through sixty-four academies.
These levels of learning have a sequence, and as long as he works his way back in order according to the sequence, Ye Shuo doesn't even need any written records to know how Wu Yi's internal force works.
As a subordinate of his cheap father, Wu Yi is always around to protect his cheap father. Even if he is not the strongest, he is one of the strongest.
And the word "Wu" is very telling.
Wu Yi Wu Yi... It's hard for Ye Shuo not to have associations.
'Your technique is great, but now it's mine.'
Ye Shuo silently said this in his heart, but his face behaved very well. Soon, he asked the last question -
"I heard that my grandfather was a brave warrior who rarely lost a battle in his life. So... how good is his Kung Fu?"
"The Duke of Zhenguo's kung fu is naturally excellent."
Wu Yi said this without much hesitation.
Ye Shuo saw that although there was admiration in his eyes, there was no longing or fear. Ye Shuo immediately knew what was going on.
As expected, since the royal family is the ruler of this country, their foundation is naturally the strongest.
Ye Shuo felt relieved and also gave up the idea of looking for his mother.
Wu Yi would never have thought that just a small, unintentional action would allow someone to find out his biggest secret.
He was unaware of the entire process and even felt that the little prince was easy to take care of and manage, not at all as troublesome as his master had worried about.
Look, after listening to the story, isn’t the little prince going to sleep quietly and obediently?
"Wu Yi, I'm sleepy...I want to sleep..."
Ye Shuo rubbed his eyes, then slowly covered himself with the quilt: "Good night Wu Yi, see you tomorrow."
Wu Yi vaguely understood that this good night was a greeting to him. Just as he was about to say that this was against the rules, he saw that the little prince had wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and turned around.
Wu Yilue was stunned for a moment, then he bowed and disappeared in the blink of an eye. At this moment, he was thinking that if the little prince could be as well-behaved and quiet as he was tonight, he would not mind telling him more insignificant stories like this one.
Wu Yi didn't know that the moment he turned around, Ye Shuo, who was originally curled up in the quilt, suddenly changed his expression, raised the corners of his lips, and laughed silently.
Done.
Ever since Wu Yi inadvertently mentioned that people who practiced martial arts would have better physiques than ordinary people, Ye Shuo became determined to learn this thing.
In ancient times, when medical conditions were so backward, a cold could kill a person. So Ye Shuo would not miss anything that was said to be good for health.
As a person who has suffered from a serious illness, Ye Shuo should not cherish his healthy body too much now.
As for the fact that practicing martial arts requires a strong physique, Ye Shuo thinks this is not a problem at all.
Although there is no conclusive evidence to prove that he inherited genes from his grandfather, but judging from various signs, it is basically certain.
The principle has been figured out, the hardware conditions have met the standards, and the way the internal force is operated has also been figured out. Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.
It was just a matter of the order of the sixty-four academic places, which was not a problem for Ye Shuo.
There are 52 single acupoints, 309 double acupoints, and 50 extra-meridian acupoints, a total of 720 acupoints in the whole body. When he was studying his family medical history in his previous life, he studied Traditional Chinese Medicine for a period of time and he still remembers it now.
Wu Yi is usually a very cautious person, but he lost here.
After all, it is basically impossible to find someone who can remember hundreds of academic degrees, but he was unlucky enough to meet one.
After a while, Ye Shuo checked again. After confirming that Wu Yi was not there, he lifted the quilt and sat up.
Then he reversed the heat trend chart bit by bit in his mind.
Soon, Ye Shuo began to try to find the sense of Qi.
About an hour later, he finally found some feeling.
At first, it was just a wisp of smoke-like airflow like a firefly or candle flame that could be extinguished at any time. Ye Shuo controlled it carefully, making the airflow flow through the sixty-four acupoints in order.
Like a star map waiting to be lit up, the air flow was swaying and it was difficult to move forward.
Ye Shuo was not in a hurry and seemed very patient, pushing forward little by little.
Time passed by minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to dawn.
Fortunately, Ye Shuo, like the Sixth Prince, did not have the habit of having anyone keep watch in the room at night. Plus, the maids and wet nurses all knew that the little prince would be angry if their sleep was disturbed, so there had been no unusual movements in the room.
In the meantime, Ye Shuo vaguely heard the noise of the Sixth Prince opening the door to go to the study room next door. The noise lasted for about a cup of tea and then disappeared.
At some point, beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Ye Shuo's forehead, and it was obvious that the most critical moment had arrived.
After struggling forward for so long, that trace of energy finally approached the dantian.
After circling for a long time, the airflow finally felt an inexplicable suction force and was completely sucked into the dantian.
With a "boom", Ye Shuo was shocked. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes became exceptionally bright and energetic. He didn't look like a man who had been up all night at all.
The same warmth also appeared in his dantian at this moment.
Although it was just a tiny trace that seemed like it would go out at any time, and was even weaker than Wu Yi's casual slap, Ye Shuo was already very satisfied.
At least it proves that his conjecture is correct, and all he needs to do from now on is accumulate experience.
As for how to release and apply it...
Ye Shuo thought of the techniques of modern martial arts. Modern martial arts do not have such a thing as internal force. What matters is practicing how to exert force.
To give an example, when you punch, you can't just punch. No matter how strong the arm muscles are, they are limited after all. You have to start from the feet, push the ground with the soles of the feet, exert force with the ankles, through the knee joints, to the thighs and hips, and then the waist and hips drive the shoulders. The key is to conduct and condense each part into one.
I think the same principle applies to internal strength. If you want high attack power, you need high burst power.
Ye Shuo's breath sank, and the gossamer-like internal force in his body instantly spread out to the sixty-four acupoints. Feeling a force from inside out ready to rush out, Ye Shuo imitated what he saw in the TV series, put two fingers together, and swung them out quickly.
The next moment, the red candle three meters away went out.
