Until the road is lit

Chapter 6: Fine and meticulous, eating and sleeping are all Zen



How to practice eating and sleeping

Su Jie was puzzled and puzzled.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The two biggest things in life are eating and sleeping, "Oudeli said

I didn't eat when I was eating, and I didn't sleep when I was sleeping, "Su Jie chewed on these two sentences, which were very philosophical and vaguely understood in his heart, but he couldn't say exactly what they were.

While thinking, the sound of motorcycles could be heard outside the yard.

Oudeli opened the courtyard door and it was the person delivering the food.

All the big and small packages were opened and placed on the table. The food was extremely abundant, including beef, chicken, fruits, dairy products, fish, and soup. Obviously, it was not ordinary takeout, but customized dishes.

When the delivery person was ready, Oudeli greeted Su Jie and said, "Come and eat. This is the private dish of the Nie family. It is said that the ancestors of the Nie family were palace chefs. I have come here once before and it is very delicious. It also regulates the body, nourishes vitality, and is suitable for all ages

Su Jie was already hungry, but there was still a look of embarrassment on his face. He had a feeling of mixing food and drink.

Oudeli seems to have seen through his thoughts, "I happen to be conducting a physical training and testing experiment. Would you be willing to be my volunteer? You can have food and salary included

Of course I'm willing, "Su Jie nodded quickly." Just include food, I don't need the salary. Can you teach me more kung fu

Let's eat first, "Oudeli said with chopsticks.

Westerners are accustomed to using knives and forks when eating, and many people find it difficult to even use chopsticks, especially Joss who tries hard to use them well, but fails every time. But Oudeli is completely different. With chopsticks, he walks like flowing water, even picking up difficult peanuts. He can pick up as many as he wants.

Su Jie was already hungry and took a big bite.

Oudeli quickly stopped and said, "Eating is the first lesson I've taught you. You must chew thoroughly and crush the food in your mouth before swallowing slowly. Don't think about anything in your heart, just eat with peace of mind, but don't be too nervous. Keep a happy and relaxed attitude. Remember, eating is the most relaxing and enjoyable time in life. Seizing this time is equivalent to grasping the essence of life. This is what the Zen master said, eating is eating. And 99% of people are not eating when they eat

Don't think about anything else in your mind. While focusing, enjoy and relax, chew thoroughly. "Su Jie has taken biology classes and knows that chewing thoroughly can secrete more saliva, convert starch in food into maltose, reduce digestive burden on the stomach and intestines, and stimulate the cerebral cortex through facial muscle movements, making the brain active.

The eating mentality is the most important. If you think about other things while eating, your blood circulation will not be concentrated in the intestines and stomach, which weakens your digestive ability and reduces your mental control over your taste buds. Over time, you will experience mild anorexia, which is the beginning of species elimination in evolutionary terms. "Oudeli said," In my research, even professional athletes have much stronger physical fitness than those who do not think about problems during each meal. Don't underestimate this detail. True physical fitness and physical fitness are achieved through strict self- discipline and psychological control. Devils often hide in details

The devil hides in the details. "Upon hearing these words, Su Jie seemed to understand. He wanted to think for a moment, but immediately stopped and began to eat with peace of mind, enjoying the beauty of food.

As he ate, he unexpectedly entered a state where he felt the aroma of the food wafting through his mouth as he chewed it, creating a sense of floating sensation throughout his body.

Then chew the food thoroughly, swallow it into the esophagus and stomach, and a sense of satisfaction arises naturally.

In this, he felt the gift of nature to life.

Watching Su Jie's eating state and expression change, Oudeli seemed to have discovered something precious, just like a teacher seeing a student with strong comprehension.

After finishing this meal, Su Jie wanted to habitually stand up.

Don't stand yet. After eating, sit down for a while because your stomach is still wriggling and digesting food. This is inertia. If you stand up and change this inertia, it may cause your stomach to sag. However, if you sit still for a long time, it may cause bloating in your stomach. At this time, you need to drink drinks to help with digestion. "Oudeli once again taught the details.

Beverages? "Su Jie didn't find any juice or anything, he ate fruit at the dining table.

The best drink is your saliva, "Oudeli gently massaged his abdomen with his hands according to the rhythm of his breathing. Come down

Su Jie continued to study. He never expected that a simple meal would contain so much knowledge. In his heart, he did not underestimate these details at all. On the contrary, he attached great importance to them and made up his mind to do them well.

After digesting, Oudeli finally let him stand up and move around.

Arriving at the yard, Oudeli first let Su Jie take a slow walk around the yard. After walking for an hour in a circle, the food he ate was thoroughly digested, and only then did Su Jie practice the move of "hoeing" again.

This time he gave careful guidance, and he immediately went up to correct any details that were not right, until Su Jie practiced this move skillfully and skillfully before stopping.

It's time for a nap

Seeing Su Jie feeling tired, Oudeli taught him how to sleep.

There are wing rooms in this courtyard, which are an ancient architectural style specially prepared for guests.

Oudeli made Su Jie lie on the bed, trying his best to stretch his head and limbs as if pulled by a

horse.

What I am teaching you now is ancient Indian yoga, a combination of the Tantric method of cutting off life and death, called the Great Spread Corpse Method, but I have made some minor improvements. You are now lying in bed with your head, feet, and hands, trying your best to support yourself, imagining yourself being dismembered and in danger. You are trying your best to resist, but finally powerless and torn apart. At this moment, you feel like you are dead, a corpse, but in reality you are still alive. At this moment, you are in peace, appearing as a corpse, and your perception is still there. As a corpse, you live out your true self. After dying once, you are still alive, and you can let go of everything. Everything is so beautiful, and everything can be let go. In your mindset, you will experience great peace and relaxation to the limit

Oudeli's voice seemed to have some kind of hypnotic effect. Su Jie followed his rhythm and began to vigorously lift his limbs and head. Suddenly, it seemed like he was really dead. He fell asleep peacefully, breathing steadily and continuously.

This child is the most qualified and intelligent one I have ever seen, and he is calm, not impulsive, and has a sense of justice. But is he really a genius who has entered the state so quickly? "Oudeli saw Su Jie who had gone to bed, and the reason he was interested in him was because of the small matter of buying water.

This small matter fully demonstrates Su Jie's wisdom and sense of justice.

In the following conversation, he saw Su Jie's persistence, strong will, and insight.

Ordinary people, even if taught, find it difficult to persist.

And during the conversation, he felt that Su Jie was a person with strong execution and planning abilities.

The most important thing is that there is no one in a million who can enter the state of the corpse spreading method for the first time. How can he? He directly understands to live in the state of a corpse. If he continues like this, he may reach the mental state of forgetting life and death. This kind of mentality training is not something that artificial intelligence can involve. "Oudeli's face smiled.

After sleeping for two hours, Su Jie woke up naturally, feeling refreshed and as if he had never felt so comfortable before. His mentality was lively and energetic, as if he could let go of anything and be satisfied with anything, always relaxed and happy.

You still need to promise me one more thing, that I will train you. Don't say anything about it

for now, take some time every day to train secretly. Also, if there is a chance in the future, I hope you can play a few fighting matches and say I am your coach, "Oudeli made a request.

Okay, "Su Jie thought and nodded.

Oudeli seemed to have succeeded in some kind of scheme, with a smile on his face.

What I taught you today, you should understand and digest it well. By following this training, you can benefit for a lifetime. However, learning martial arts is far from enough. So, come here every day when you have time to learn. There's only one month left, and after one

month, I'll be leaving here, "Oudeli waved his hand.

Su Jie did not continue to ask Oudeli about martial arts. Today's knowledge is enough to digest for many days.

On July 8th, I unexpectedly met the coach of the world's top fighter, Oudeli. He told me a lot of knowledge about traditional martial arts, which opened up a whole new world for me. During practice, I hated the heavens without a handle, hated the earth without a ring, and during combat, I swore to never return until I was infected with enemy blood. What's even more amazing is the mentality of the five horse dismemberment method, where I live my true self in the state of a corpse. I feel that my mentality is very good, peaceful, and comfortable. During training, I found the true meaning of my own existence. Traditional martial arts and traditional cultivation methods are really so magical. I don't know if there is any supernatural power, but... This is definitely a baptism of the body and mind. No wonder many people have become monks and entered the deep mountains and forests to practice

The fight with Joss continued tonight, and he still easily hit me. I haven't been completely

different because I learned Coach Oudeli's skills. It seems that Kung Fu still needs to be practiced step by step, and it's impossible to make rapid progress. When I sleep at night, I will continue to practice the Five Horse Splitting and Big Slaying Technique. I searched online and found that the Big Slaying Technique is a practice of Tantric Buddhism, and the coach added meditation on the Five Horse Splitting Technique, which should mean stretching muscles and pulling bones. Another point is that even when eating, there should be a set of digestive massage swallowing techniques. If the details of health preservation are integrated into every detail of life, physical fitness will definitely be greatly improved. Life The two most important things, eating and sleeping, take up a lot of time in life, and the details must be

mastered well

Su Jie, remember that details determine success or failure, and you must remember them According to her daily habit, Su Jie still writes a diary to summarize.
