Chapter 41
In the next few days, several things happened in the city of Wuzhou.

The first is the most important provincial test.

After the examination in the state, all the candidates for this year in Wuzhou City have been decided.

And after subtracting those whose spiritual vein talents do not match and those who are older than the age, a list of ten people who are eligible to go to Chang'an and participate in the school entrance examination is obtained.

Among the ten students, Zhai Yiming from the state school ranked first, Song Shaoyuan ranked second, the third to sixth were other students from the state school, and there were also four Gongju students from other places.

According to the rules, Zhai Yiming, Song Shaoyuan and other selected scholars held a tail-burning banquet at home to celebrate, and held different banquets in succession in the next few days, thanking teachers, parents, and celebrating with classmates and friends. By the way, we will go to Chang'an together. Students from the same town who are taking the exam, make a good relationship.

Li Ang didn't go to any banquets. In fact, he even turned down the banquet from the prefect's house - even though the daughter of the prefect Jizhi also received a recommendation letter from the school tour this year, and was a recommended student like him.

"When I go to Chang'an this time, I need to listen more, see more, and think more."

In the courtyard of Baoantang, Pu Liuxuan smiled and said to Li Ang: "When I was here, the development of the academy was already changing with each passing day. Fifteen years have passed, and I don't know what new ideas and technologies there are.

Ask your senior brother to take you to the Xue Gong Book Building during the open day, maybe there will be some new inspiration. "

Yu State's public library, formerly known as the Secretary Province.

Due to the first emperor's burning of books, most of the books in the world were destroyed. In addition, in the old days, only handwritten transcriptions and bamboo slips and silk books were available.
It is difficult to preserve and disseminate books, and only the official can collect them on a large scale.

Therefore, the institution specializing in the management of the national book collection was named the "Secretary Province", and the person in charge of editing and correcting books in the Secretary Province was the clerk.

After the appearance of the Academy and the improvement of printing and papermaking skills, the difficulty of writing books suddenly decreased, and the massive collection of books is no longer the patent of the country or the wealthy and aristocratic.

Some relatively prosperous state capitals have local libraries, which collect books, newspapers and periodicals on the market at public expense every year for citizens to borrow.

"Ah."

Li Ang nodded respectfully, hesitated for a moment, and asked Pu Liuxuan softly, "Teacher, what is the sign of feeling aura?
I have been reading "The Inspiration of the Qing Dynasty" in the past few days, and every time I read half of it, I feel itching under my skin and swelling in my chest and abdomen. "

"Oh?"

Pu Liuxuan raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, "Itching under the skin, swelling in the chest and abdomen?

Do you still feel that your breathing is smooth and that each exhalation takes longer than before? "

Li Ang nodded, "Yes."

"A month?"

Pu Liuxuan's wrinkled brows slowly stretched out, and said with a smile, "This is a precursor to feeling aura.

That book "Inspiration of the Qing Dynasty" is just an introduction. Only when reading, the six sense organs are pure, the mind is free of dust, the righteous thoughts are firm, and the true qi is full and found in the gods, so that the qi pulse can be smooth. "

"Pure heart? Is that enough?"

Li Ang was surprised: "I thought it would be more difficult."

"easy to say, hard to do."

Pu Liuxuan said casually: "We must isolate greed, anger, delusion, resentment and hatred. Don't ask, don't be in a hurry, don't be obsessed, just wait for your energy and spirit.

Some people who have no comprehension think that being calm means thinking about nothing, let go of themselves, and find a place to sit for a whole day.

As everyone knows, if you want to feel angry, you have to think without thinking.While the will is extremely firm, he actively restrains and suppresses all distracting thoughts, and uses his will to sense the existence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

This method must be comprehended by yourself, and letting others tell you to suppress distracting thoughts will only make you unable to control your own thoughts. "

"So it is."

Li Ang suddenly realized, no wonder Pu Liuxuan only lost a copy of "Shang Qing Inspiration", and there was no additional explanation.

"It took a month to sense the spiritual energy, and this result is not bad."

Pu Liuxuan said with a smile: "However, sensing the world's spiritual energy is only the first step. The next thing to do is to feel where the spiritual veins are located."

"Well"

Li Ang thought about it and asked, "Teacher, what type of thing is the spiritual vein? Or, what form does it exist in?"

"Spiritual veins are not like things, they are more like the characteristics of a person's birth, like fingerprints on fingers, birthmarks."

Pu Liuxuan explained: "The difference is that the spiritual veins are bound together with the human body and soul, and cannot be seen or touched, not a specific organ.

To give a simple example, you can think of the aura of heaven and earth as an infinite airflow that is constantly flowing.
The human body is the flute and flute.

The spiritual veins are Di Xiao's hollow holes.

Because of the hollow spiritual veins, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be introduced into the human body, and can be controlled and influenced by the will of the monk.

Just like the air passing through the flute and playing the music, it generates various mysterious effects.

Excavating the spiritual veins that already existed is equivalent to cleaning Di Xiao, so that the human body blocked by unclean things and unclean thoughts can once again be clear and clear.

The whole process is the beginning.

Completion of the initial introduction is the feeling of qi. "

The example given by Pu Liuxuan is vivid and vivid, Li Ang understood what was going on without much effort, and hesitantly said: "In other words, feeling qi is the process of sensing the position of the spiritual meridian and making it smooth?

Does the location of the spiritual veins matter? "

"Location?"

Pu Liuxuan thought for a moment and said: "The spiritual veins are invisible and intangible, but the experience of the sages of the Academy and many cases have proved that the location of the spiritual veins seems to be different for different people.

Concentrate on blood vessels and meridians, or areas such as eyes, hands, hearts, ears, etc.

Some schools in the former Sui Dynasty also respected the so-called ancient practice, that is, according to the position of the spiritual veins, practice different qigong methods - of course, that kind of ancient practice has now been eliminated by the school. "

"Then the spiritual veins may appear in the head?"

Li Ang sat up a little nervously and asked, "After I sensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, sometimes my head hurts slightly, and the scene in front of me suddenly turns black.

It's like having a sword stuck in your head. "

"Brain?"

Pu Liuxuan's eyes widened in surprise, "Are you sure?"

Li Ang nodded heavily, "Disciple is confirmed."

"How could it be? It shouldn't be."

Pu Liuxuan frowned and murmured: "The most common location of the spiritual veins is the blood vessels and meridians, followed by the heart, limbs, eyes, and mouth. I have never heard of them growing in the head."
