Under One Person: Did Zuo Ruotong and I switch bodies?

"Dissociative identity disorder?"

Although he didn't understand the meaning of the word, it sounded very impressive, so Zhang Chulan asked curiously, "Brother Chen, what is that?"

"The so-called 'dissociative identity disorder' means that there are two personalities in one body, or you can think of them as two souls, but normally only one can control the body..."

"And what you saw before was my 'brother'."

"Brother?! Brother?!"

"That's right!"

Mingchen feigned sadness: "Actually, I had a miserable childhood. My father didn't love me, my mother didn't care about me, and she would beat me whenever she got angry. To protect me, my 'brother' appeared..."

"Wait a minute, Brother Chen, didn't you say you learned 'reverse rebirth' from your master since you were little?"

"Well……"

Ming Chen was genuinely unaware of what the Left Sect Master meant by that, and immediately laughed, "I was just joking. Actually, I was born in June, so I'm a Gemini... haha!"

"Gemini? What's that?" Zhang Chulan scratched his head.

"Don't you know about Westerners' 'astrology'? It's similar to our Chinese zodiac. We Geminis are always on the go, depending on our mood. That's perfectly normal."

Mingchen was prepared for the reasons for these personality differences. When Plan A failed, he switched to Plan B and explained it to Mingchen.

Anyway, he's just a little kid.

They're easy to fool.

"So that's how it is..."

After listening to his explanation of astrology, Zhang Chulan nodded thoughtfully, then asked curiously, "Brother Chen, what's my zodiac sign?"

What were your birthdates?

February 4th.

"Then you're an Aquarius."

"The characteristics of Aquarius are valuing freedom and equality, being unconventional, and following one's heart."

"Hmm...it's perfect for cultivation!"

Mingchen rubbed his head again.

Let's just get by with that.

After that, the two returned to the fields and practiced together until sunset. After dinner, Mingchen returned home.

He closed the door tightly, but instead of resting, he sat cross-legged on the bed, calming his mind and spirit. Now that the "circulation of energy" was complete, he should hurry up and pass the next stage to prevent himself from switching back at any time.

next moment.

The contents of the classic text on reversing life floated into my mind:

[Upon passing through the gates, the limbs and orifices become luminous, thus refining the form.]

The vital energy (Qi) in the human body naturally disperses to the four seas with a single exhale and returns to Kunlun with a single inhale. Stagnant Qi cannot circulate freely throughout the body; therefore, clearing the channels and meridians is the process of unblocking the meridians and meridians, and freeing up stagnant Qi.

  

[Once the stagnant Qi dissipates, the spirit naturally becomes clear and bright, and the body naturally becomes pure and refreshed. This process is repeated continuously, circulating through the body's orifices until all seven orifices are open and bright, at which point the body is truly complete and the physical form is refined.]

The first stage of "Reversing Life" involves first using the "Gen Back Method" to refine the ethereal spirit and strengthen the vital spirit, then using the "Circulation Method" to circulate the Qi throughout the body, and finally using the "Gate Opening Method" to disperse stagnant Qi and open the acupoints...

When the three elements of nature, life, and vital energy are complete, they are initially perfected.

The so-called "stagnant Qi" refers to the Qi that remains in the acupoints of the body due to the beginner's lack of experience during the circulation of Qi. Over time, this Qi will accumulate and cause the Qi channels to become blocked, making it difficult to circulate Qi.

At this moment.

Mingchen followed the guidance of the classic texts.

Starting from the middle dantian, first circulate the qi three times, then move the qi to the lower dantian, along the qi channels of both legs to the instep, from the middle toe to the sole, to the heel, and then to the coccyx at the tailbone.

In this way, some of the stagnant Qi in the lower body will be taken away and refined through the circulation of Qi, merging into the physical body.

Then, the Qi returns to the middle Dantian, and the Qi circulates through the body three more times, moving from the spine to the shoulders, then splitting into two paths from the arms to the backs of the hands, from the middle fingers to the palms, back up to the shoulders, and finally to the sides of the head, rotating up to the ears...

It travels down to the Niwan point, then through the eyes, down the nose and mouth, and back to the middle Dantian, thus passing through all the acupoints of the body.

Repeat the cycle three more times.

Then it was finished once.

This route shows that it is more complicated than the original Qi cultivation cycle, because Qi cultivation only requires the connection of the three dantian, while this requires the connection of all the acupoints in the body, which is called the "Great Qi Cultivation Cycle".

Depending on your own breathing speed, you can choose to do it nine, twenty-one, or even forty-nine times at a time, twice a day, morning and evening. It is best to do it continuously while walking, standing, sitting, or lying down, and the more the better.

So far.

Mingchen cleared his mind of the scriptures and distracting thoughts, and began the second repetition.

With the support of the two Qi infants, his Qi circulation speed was incredibly fast. He completed another cycle in just eight minutes, and after a brief calculation...

"Twice a day, each time you can do it 81 times!"

At this moment, he did not know that this was a number that no one in the Trinity Sect had ever reached in hundreds of years. He only knew that the faster the better, so he nodded in satisfaction and began to perform it for the third time.

Because he had not been cultivating for long, there was not much stagnant Qi in his body's acupoints. At such a terrifying speed, the stagnant Qi in his body was rapidly dissipating.

It integrates into the skin, flesh, muscles, and bones.

The six viscera and five internal organs.

……

……

Knock knock knock!

"Master, I'm back!"

Under the cover of night, there was a knock on the door of the Sanyi Sect Master's study. A figure pushed the door open and entered. It was Changqing: "Master, the bounty has been issued, and we've been to Longhu Mountain."

Zuo Ruotong slightly raised her eyes, poured him a cup of tea, and waited for him to finish it before asking, "How was it?"

"As for the one called 'Wugensheng,' there's no need to mention him. You provided too little information. Xiaozhan said he could only do his best. I also asked him on my way back, but there's still no news."

"As for this 'Xilin,' I asked the Celestial Master's Mansion, and they said there's no one with that name. However, after wandering around the temple a few times, I did find someone who was short in stature but had unusually large ears..."

"Is this the person you're looking for?"

As he spoke, Changqing took out a scroll from his pocket. It was a portrait, which he had commissioned from a painter based on his memory after leaving Longhu Mountain.

The person in the painting was indeed short, with unusually large ears, wearing a tattered and patched Taoist robe, and holding a broom in his hand.

"We actually found it!"

Looking at the boy in the painting, Zuo Ruotong's pupils dilated slightly, recognizing him at a glance as Zhang Xilin: "You said there's no one named 'Xilin,' so what's his name?"

"I've inquired; his name is Lin Huaiyi."

"Forest?"

A thought flashed through his mind: "So, 'Zhang' is an adopted surname...?"

As expected, the "Zhang" in Zhang Xilin's name was not his original surname, but was bestowed by the Celestial Master's Mansion, indicating that he was qualified to succeed the Celestial Master.

"What exactly happened... that made him leave Dragon Tiger and live in anonymity?"

The fact that Zhang Xilin... no, Zhang Huaiyi changed his name but not his surname shows that he still cares about Longhu, indicating that he has no grudge against the Celestial Master's Mansion.

"He was expelled from the sect..."

"Or is there some other reason?"

In any case, now that the person has been found, he has to go and see him. It just so happens that the three children's cultivation has been on the right track these past few days.

Zuo Ruotong immediately instructed Changqing not to spread the word and dismissed him.

Then Chengzhen was summoned.

"I'm going to Longhu tomorrow..."

"Those three children."

"You can take care of it for now."
