Self-struggle starting from Douluo

Chapter 82 Face
A tempering of one’s state of mind?

Ning Fengzhi was undoubtedly very interested in this statement and asked, "Is state of mind important to a soul master?"

Qing Huan looked at him in surprise and said, "State of mind is very important to everything... I heard that Sect Master Ning has a lot of experience in how to judge people?"

Ning Fengzhi was not modest either, he nodded and said: "Fortunately, Fengzhi rarely misjudges people."

Qing Huan became interested and asked, "Then how does Sect Master Ning judge a person?"

Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment and said, "First, study his past experiences and his methods of doing things to make a preliminary judgement of his character. Then, meet him and look at his eyes..."

Ning Fengzhi did not hide anything and shared his experience in "judging people".

Qinghuan listened carefully, thinking deeply. Many ancient books in the previous life had recorded that in ancient times, even as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a practice of judging a person's character by his eyes.

For example, if a person's eyes are evasive, it means that he has something to hide, and if his eyes are upright, it means that he has an open mind...

This is somewhat similar to what Ning Fengzhi said.

After Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, he said, "But what does this have to do with 'state of mind'?"

Dugu Bo also looked at him curiously.

Qing Huan said: "A person's state of mind will affect the flow of 'qi', causing a person to exhibit some inexplicable characteristics, or we can call it 'temperament'!
For example...that one!"

Qing Huan pointed at a noble and asked, "What do you think of that person?"

Dugu Bo frowned and looked for a long time before saying, "I can't tell."

Ning Fengzhi said, "His expression seems normal, but his eyes wander from time to time, and they always glance at pretty girls... This person has evil intentions."

Qing Huan smiled and said, "Not only that, I can also see that he left his hometown a long time ago and ventured into Tiandou City alone. He was often ridiculed and looked down upon... He was even beaten recently for having an affair with a noble lady."

Dugu Bo was dumbfounded: "Do you know him?"

Qing Huan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I don't know him."

Ning Fengzhi pondered and said, "Is it because of the 'temperament' or 'state of mind' you mentioned?"

Qing Huan explained: "A person's state of mind will affect his or her "qi", leading to subtle changes in his or her language habits, movement habits, and even appearance.

There is a saying that goes "Appearance is determined by the heart", just like him, have you noticed that the area between the end of his eyebrows and his hairline above his temples on both sides is larger than that of other people?"

Dugu Bo asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"

Ning Fengzhi stared at the man, his face full of confusion.

Qing Huan thought for a moment and said, “Or let’s put it another way. When everyone is thinking about something, it is inevitable that there will be some subtle changes in facial expressions... If you think about the same problem frequently, then the subtle changes that appear are fixed. Over time, these changes will affect the development of your face.

If we match the various subtle changes in his facial expressions with his inner thoughts, and summarize them, we will find that the changes in these two positions represent that he is always "homesick". Why does he miss his hometown? Of course, it is because he left his hometown. "

Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up: "Is there such a saying?"

Dugu Bo asked curiously, "Then how do you know that he is often ridiculed and looked down upon?"

Qing Huan smiled and said, "People with open minds look very different from those with narrow minds. People with open minds don't take many trivial matters to heart. Even if they are wronged, they can adjust themselves, so the distance between their eyes and eyebrows is very wide.

People with narrow minds are completely the opposite. Today someone bumped into me, but I can’t afford to offend him for the time being, so I can only hold a grudge in my heart. Tomorrow someone glared at me, but I can’t afford to offend him, so I can only hold a grudge in my heart... What I hold in my heart are always things that make me uncomfortable.

Thinking about these things, one naturally frowns.

If he always has this vindictive mindset, his eyebrows will be pressed downward when he frowns. Over time, the distance between his eyebrows and eyes will become narrower... just like him.

He could not afford to offend a noble who had left his homeland, so the object of his hatred was naturally also a noble, and a noble from Tiandou City.

With the means of the nobles of Tiandou City, if they had offended him proactively, they would have kicked him out long ago, so it must be that some behavior or words offended him unconsciously, and his own pettiness made him unable to ignore it..."

Ning Fengzhi suddenly realized and said, "Perhaps it was the condescending look that the nobles of Tiandou City were accustomed to, which made him feel that they looked down on him, so he kept thinking about it in his heart!"

Dugu Bo was still a little confused: "What about the affair..."

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Every time his peripheral vision swept past a pretty girl, the corner of his eye would twitch unconsciously. This should be a subconscious fear... He was often beaten because of women, so this affair was not the first or second time.

His movements were obviously very small and a little stiff, which meant he had been beaten recently... So that's it! So that's it!" Dugu Bo asked strangely, "You even study this kind of thing?"

Qing Huan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I've been thinking recently, what changes in a person's body can be caused by their mental state?

These were also discovered accidentally when thinking about this problem...or you can call it "physiognomy".

Therefore, a person has a certain temperament, not because he is born with this temperament, but because of the changes in his state of mind, he develops a certain temperament. "

Ning Fengzhi was surprised and asked: "It seems that you have gained some new insights recently?"

Dugu Bo was actually a little proud, and said: "As expected of you, even this kind of thing can make you think."

Qing Huan smiled and said, "Remember Lan Yin? She has evolved well recently, and the speed is far beyond my expectations. I guess it is because her mental state has affected the evolution of her body, which has triggered my further thinking.

And Tang Yuehua from Yuexuan, you know her, right? "

Ning Fengzhi nodded and said, "Of course, she is the most perfect woman in the hearts of all the nobles in Tiandou."

Even Dugu Bo nodded in approval.

Qing Huan said: "Tang Yuehua is like this, her state of mind allows her to cultivate a calm and peaceful temperament, and this temperament, with the blessing of the martial spirit, has become a domain.

If the practice of our soul masters is to cultivate soul power and a special kind of "qi", which can be called "practicing qi", then Tang Yuehua is "nourishing qi"!
She didn’t have innate soul power, but by “cultivating qi”, she developed ninth-level soul power. Although she was blocked by the soul master, it is still amazing! "

"Yuehua is a little flattered by what the young master said!" A pleasant voice came from behind the three of them.

The person who came was none other than Tang Yuehua.

Ning Fengzhi and Dugu Bo were startled. They looked at each other and could see bitter smiles in each other's eyes. They were so focused on Qinghuan's words that they ignored the approach of others!

Qing Huan turned around and said with a smile: "Eavesdropping on people's conversations is not a good habit."

Tang Yuehua smiled sweetly and said, "It's not a good habit to talk about others behind their backs."

As he spoke, he bowed to the other two and said, "Greetings to Sect Master Ning, Your Majesty Dugu. I accidentally overheard your conversation. I am sorry for being rude."

After the two returned the gift, they knew that she was here to look for Qing Huan, so they left tactfully.

Only the two of them were left. Qing Huan asked, "What do you think of my last proposal?"

Tang Yuehua pretended to be distressed and said, "It's hard to decide. Young Master, why don't you give me some time?"

"It doesn't matter. This is a difficult choice."

Qing Huan waved his hand, took out a book from his bosom, and said, "This is the technique I promised you, it's called 'Xuan Tian Gong Modified'. I'll give it to you first."

Tang Yuehua looked at the technique in front of her, her breathing quickened for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Didn't the young master give me two choices? Are you planning to take back the second choice now?"

"No, I want to make the two choices clearer."

Qing Huan said seriously: "The technique for your breakthrough and the three spirit rings that will guide you are all written in it. With it, you can truly think about the second choice, whether to join me or not.

Otherwise, you might be worried that if you don’t choose the second one, I won’t give you the technique… Don’t say you don’t have such worries.”

"I don't have one!"

Tang Yuehua refuted, but still excitedly took the technique, fumbled with it, and asked, "Why is it called this? It's weird."

Qing Huan said: "Because I adapted it from the Xuan Tian Gong."

Tang Yuehua's tone was very strange: "...So it's called "Xuan Tian Gong Modified"? "

Qing Huan asked curiously, "Is it not possible?"

Tang Yuehua was speechless: "I think... "Yuehua Gong" is a good name."

Qing Huan curled her lips and said, "The name is quite straightforward... whatever you like."
