I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 642

Although Hu Chongling and Zhang Qingshu had not known each other for long, they did have some friendship. In addition, he had saved his life before, and now he recalled the reputation of the hero Li, so he bravely spoke.

"Master Li, since you know so much about this, do you have any solution?"

Li Ming glanced at him, then smiled and said, "This is a gift he was born with. He's lucky to be alive today. If it weren't for this internal martial arts technique, he wouldn't have lived past the age of sixteen."

Zhang Qingshu was shocked. He didn't expect that this person's evaluation was exactly the same as what the miracle doctor his father had invited said.

He also tentatively asked, "Master Li, are you also good at medicine?"

Li Ming smiled lightly and said, "I only know a little bit."

"Then what do you think about my illness?" Zhang Qingshu asked again.

"Well..." Li Ming pondered for a moment, first nodded, then shook his head, and then sighed.

"What a pity, what a pity."

Zhang Qingshu's brows twitched wildly, and finally Li Xian couldn't help but ask.

"What's going on here?"

Li Ming lowered his eyebrows and said, "Do you feel that the cold air outbreaks have become more frequent recently?"

Zhang Qingshu couldn't help but smile bitterly, nodded and said: "Yes, it used to happen only once every ten days or half a month, but recently it happens once every two or three days. Could it be that I..."

Li Ming asked again, "We have to start from the root cause. Tell me if this change started with your internal cultivation?"

Zhang Qingshu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Indeed, I have tried to stop practicing, but this skill is beyond my control. It flows naturally with every breath, every time I walk, sit or lie down. That's why I have achieved such a high level of skill in just three months."

Li Xian dropped his chopsticks to the ground and said tremblingly, "What did you say?"

Zhang Qingshu was also a little embarrassed. After all, he came from a family of martial arts, and the Zhang family was also a powerful family. Although it had declined in recent years, it was still a strong family. Besides, Mr. Zhang was just old and not dead. Moreover, the Zhang family had a foundation. Although it could not be said to be long-standing, it had family traditions. He had been influenced by it since he was a child, and he was well aware of the hardships of practicing martial arts.

There are few martial arts in the world that can be like this. They do not require the practitioner to spend time and energy to circulate the Qi through the body. They can only meditate and practice Qi day after day, and accumulate profound skills over time.

"Is there really such martial arts in this world?" Li Xian asked subconsciously.

Hu Chongling also frowned and said, "As far as I know, no!" Then the two of them looked at Li Ming together, as if waiting for Li Ming to make the final conclusion.

Li Mingze said, "That's not entirely true."

Li Ming then continued, "Do you think that practicing internal energy requires complete concentration?"

Li Xian replied, "Of course. If one has distracting thoughts while practicing internal energy, one could easily go astray. It's a common understanding that martial arts should be practiced in a secluded place. How can one be distracted and do two things at once?"

"That's not entirely true." Li Ming said with a smile, "Do you think the mind has no other uses?"

"But many times, many people multitask unconsciously, eating and chatting, walking and talking, and these are the simplest ones."

"But how can practicing internal energy be compared to eating and walking?" Hu Chongling also said, "Master Li, if you're not careful when walking, you'll just fall over, and if you're eating, at most you'll choke. But if you're not careful when practicing internal energy, at best the internal energy will backfire and you'll be paralyzed in bed, or at worst you'll explode and die!"

Li Ming smiled again and said, "But if one can treat the route of internal energy as an instinct, then it will naturally be able to operate on its own at all times. Of course, what I said is just a possibility. As far as I know, there is a sect called the Ancient Tomb Sect."

"The Tomb Sect?" The three of them were a little surprised.

Li Ming nodded and said, "It's a secluded sect. I don't know if their lineage has been broken yet. It's normal you haven't heard of it. This sect was founded in an ancient tomb, so it's called the Tomb Sect. They have a treasure called the Frost Jade Bed. This Frost Jade Bed is carved from thousand-year-old cold jade and emits a chilling aura all the time."

"Won't sleeping in bed freeze me to death?" Zhang Qingshu suffered from the cold poison and hated cold things. He just had another attack of the cold poison, and now he was talking about it with gritted teeth.

Li Ming shook his head and said, "That's certainly true for others, but for us martial artists, if we exert our full power, we can naturally withstand such an attack. Therefore, if you sleep on the Cold Jade Bed, you must constantly circulate your entire body's energy to protect your body. Over time, you'll develop the habit of cultivating Qi and Qi even in your dreams. Even the most diligent practitioners must sleep for several hours each day. You must know that practicing martial arts goes against nature, and the circulation of Qi and blood is different from normal. But every night when you sleep, Qi and blood will inevitably circulate as usual, consuming ninety percent of the day's cultivation. But if you sleep on this bed, not only will your dreams not consume your daytime energy, but they will actually enhance your power. With our world-class martial arts, meditation and Qi training can eliminate fatigue. If you're diligent, meditating every night is perfectly acceptable in lieu of sleep. However, with mediocre martial arts, training only makes you more exhausted, requiring even more rest. The gap between the two naturally widens."

"Then does sleeping and practicing martial arts in the snow have such benefits?" Li Xian was moved when he heard this and asked quickly.

Li Ming said with a half-smile, "Not really. Firstly, the ice and snow will melt, and secondly, the cold jade bed can help people to be clear-minded and not be disturbed by external demons. That's why it can help people build up the instinctive habit of practicing the Qigong naturally from the very beginning. If you practice in the ice and snow, you won't have these benefits. And this must be done at the beginning. It would be extremely difficult to change it later."

"But how does this relate to Brother Zhang's situation?" Hu Chongling asked again.

Li Ming explained, "He's been plagued by cold poison since childhood, and he's long had a heart that's immune to external demons. Later, he acquired a mental method and discovered it could combat the cold poison. Although the cold poison is intense when it attacks, it's not just in his body during an attack; it's constantly circulating within him. With the two sides, isn't that like a cold jade bed? Of course, this might also be related to your mental method. It's just my guess. If it's convenient, you could tell me the origin of your mental method. If it's not convenient, you can keep it to yourself."

Looking at Li Mingming's candle-like eyes, Zhang Qingshu gritted his teeth and then said, "Hero Li, this is what happened!"
