Modern longevity: starting from Baduanjin

Chapter 15
Zhou Shen walked slowly along the main road towards the town.

It was only three o'clock in the afternoon, the weather was clear, the breeze was blowing, and there was a faint fragrance of flowers floating in the air.

There are also some white butterflies and flower-picking honey, busy among the flowers and vegetation beside the road.

Zhou Shen stopped and observed for a moment.

Then he squatted down slowly, picked up a clump of unknown wildflowers, put it close to his nose and smelled it, the smell was very mild.

Inexplicably, he felt particularly good.

It's good to be alive!

At this moment, a brand new Toyota Camry stopped beside him, and the window was lowered to reveal a smiling face, "Zhou Shen?"

Zhou Shen got up slowly and looked around, and found a chubby young man sitting in the car, wearing a black boy half-sleeve shirt, slightly curly hair, a round face, and a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, looking quite flamboyant. Didn't recognize who it was for a while?
"You are……"

The young man took off the sunglasses on his face, revealing a pair of eyes not much bigger than a mouse, with a happy smile on his face, "Why, Boss Zhou has become rich, so he doesn't recognize anyone anymore?"

Zhou Shen saw that it was Wei Biao, an old classmate, both of them were classmates in elementary school and junior high school.

After high school, he continued to study at university, and Wei Biao entered the society. Now he and his wife open a Mala Tang restaurant in Linhuai Town.

Although he didn't make a fortune, his small life was prosperous.

But he changed his car, changed his hairstyle, and he was wearing big sunglasses, so he couldn't recognize him.

Zhou Shen laughed and said, "It's you. Why are you here?"

Wei Biao said: "My old aunt's daughter is ten years old and came over for dinner. What's the matter with you, why didn't you call me when you came back?"

Just as Zhou Shen was about to speak, Wei Biao followed suit, "Get in the car and talk."

Zhou Shen hesitated for a moment, then walked aside, opened the door and got in the car, and said, "Drive slowly, don't bump."

Wei Biao, who was about to start it, asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Shen smiled and said, "I'm not feeling well."

"Where is it, it's serious?"

"Well, a little serious."

Wei Biao has known Zhou Shen for not a day or two, and he knows his character. Since he said it was a little serious, it means it is very serious. "Can you see it well?"

Zhou Shen smiled and said, "I don't know, but I can't die for the time being."

He actually didn't want to tell Wei Biao about his illness, but he couldn't.

He and Wei Biao have a pretty good relationship, they would get together every year and holidays, eat and drink, if they didn't talk about it, they would have to ask him for drinks and dinner every now and then, if they didn't go, they would offend this friend.

And besides Wei Biao, there is another friend. If he knew that he was back, he would definitely not let him go.

Now that he is sick, they naturally dare not let him drink anymore.

Wei Biao wanted to ask something, but finally said, "Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Zhou Shen said with a smile: "I just take a walk casually."

"Then go and sit in my shop."

Speaking of which, Wei Biao started the car and took Zhou Shen to the street.

……

After sitting in Wei Biao Mala Tang restaurant for 10 minutes, there happened to be a wave of customers coming to eat, so Zhou Shen got up and said goodbye.

"Don't spread the matter about my body. If it reaches my grandma's ears, it will have no effect except to worry her."

Wei Biao naturally nodded repeatedly, "Well, I know this, and I won't pass it on indiscriminately."

Speaking of which, Wei Biao grabbed Zhou Shen's hand and stuffed a wad of money into his palm, "A little heart! I don't know what you can eat, you can buy it yourself. Don't refuse, or I will get angry .”

Zhou Shen laughed and said, "You've finished what I said, what should I say?"

Wei Biao laughed and said, "Then don't talk about it! We will have a long time together in the future, right?"

Zhou Shen thought about it, anyway, Wei Biao's son will be 10 years old at the end of the year, and he will just return it to him with the gift.

"Okay, then I'll take it! You go to work, I'll walk by myself."

"Well! I won't keep you anymore, you go slowly."

After speaking, Wei Biao turned around and entered the store.

Zhou Shen turned around and glanced at the thick wad of money in his hand, estimated to be 1000 yuan.

They have relatively little human contact here, not to mention friends, even if relatives are sick to visit, it usually costs 500 yuan, plus some milk and fruit.

Wei Biao gave 1000 yuan, which is really interesting.

He pocketed the money and walked slowly towards the north express station.

In the store here, Wei Biao and his wife Liang Mei were making Mala Tang while chatting about Zhou Shen.

Liang Mei complained a little distressed: "Give me 300 yuan, just to make a point of it. If you want to be so generous, give 1000, it will look like you are rich!"

Wei Biao said impatiently: "Oh, you don't understand!"

Liang Mei said angrily: "I don't understand, do you understand? How much money do I earn when I'm busy all day long? You always spend money lavishly."

Wei Biao had no choice but to explain: "I didn't tell you just now that Zhou Shen's condition is very serious, otherwise I would give 1000?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Mei asked in surprise, "Is it true? Maybe he pretended on purpose."

Wei Biao said: "Don't judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. I haven't known Zhou Shen for a day or two. He is not that kind of person. To be honest, I would rather he pretends."

……

Here, Zhou Shen came to the express station, and all the books arrived.

He still called the previous tricycle master and sent him home all the time. This time he gave him 20 yuan.

Because there are not many books, only 5, the normal travel fee from the street to home is only 15 yuan, and the extra [-] yuan is considered as the transportation fee.

The tricycle master naturally left happily.

Zhou Shen picked up a copy of "Huangdi Neijing" and flipped through it.

[In the past, the Yellow Emperor was born as a god, weak but able to speak, young and sloppy, and old and sensitive. 】

[Appropriate question to the Celestial Master: I heard that people in ancient times lived to a hundred years old in spring and autumn, but their movements did not decline; people today are half a hundred years old, and their movements are all declining.Times are different?People will lose it? 】

【Qi Bo replied: People in ancient times, those who knew, the law is based on yin and yang, and the number of spells, food and drink have festivals, daily life has permanence, and they don't work rashly, so they can form and live with spirit, and live their lives forever. To be a hundred years old is to go!Today's people are not the same. They use wine as a syrup, take falsehood as a habit, get drunk to enter the house, use desire to exhaust their essence, and use their truth to dissipate...]

"People in ancient times could be over a hundred years old, and their movements still don't look old?"

When Zhou Shen saw the record at the beginning of the book, his expression was astonished, it was like a fairy tale.

If occasionally there are a few people who live to be a hundred years old and are still normal, the book actually says "can do it", which really makes him feel unbelievable.

Wouldn't the people with long life in ancient times be able to live one hundred fifty, sixty, two hundred years easily?

It's just too exaggerated!
"The Taoist deity Pengzu who lived 880 years old is also a real person?"

Zhou Shen originally just flipped through it casually, but he never thought about it, and he was fascinated by it.

It wasn't until it was getting dark outside and grandma's voice came from downstairs that Zhou Shen suddenly came back to his senses.

He looked at the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine in his hand, and his heart was full of surprise.

This medical classic written at an unknown time, the truth in it, actually explained all the problems of the human body in detail, which shocked him greatly.

Moreover, many principles coincide with the essence of performing exercises in Baduanjin and Longevity Jue.

"How did the ancient people know these mysteries in the human body without the help of modern medical equipment? Could it be that there were really powerful people in ancient times?"
