Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 303: Erlang, the Good Guy (for JJM Alliance Leader)

The lights in the main room came on.

Yang Yuan and Emmanuelle Belle sat cross-legged on the floor, facing each other.

Yang Yuan said seriously: "You already know the power of my Qi Refining Technique. However, it also has a drawback. I have to explain it to you first."

Emmanuelle Belle saw that he looked very serious and was puzzled, so she said, "Please speak, sir."

Yang Yuan considered his words carefully before telling her about the strange side effects of this technique.

Belle felt it was a little unbelievable. What kind of martial arts could make people who practiced it attract each other?
Half believing and half doubting, Yang Yuan said: "You haven't practiced this skill yet, I can teach you a thing or two.

When you understand what meridians and acupoints are, and learn how to circulate the inner breath around the body, remember to stay away from me when you practice from now on."

Yang Yuan thought back to when he and Li Shishi had learned this set of skills, and said:

"Just stay fifty steps away from me, and you won't have to worry about each other being in contact."

This was the first time that Emmanuelle Belle had seen this magical oriental internal energy technique, and she found the "aftereffects" that Yang Yuan mentioned even more unbelievable.

Could it be that you and that person were already in love with each other, but you mistakenly thought that it was this technique that caused you to develop feelings for each other?
However, she did not ask this question. After all, it was not difficult to practice this skill while being fifty steps away from him.

Belle agreed, and Yang Yuan began to explain to her how to regulate her breathing, how to control her qi with her mind, and how to circulate the Qi in the body.

However, meridians and acupoints, these invisible and intangible concepts, are really difficult to understand for someone who hears about them for the first time.

Yang Yuan demonstrated it on his arm. With Belle's super memory, she remembered it right away, but she just remembered it.

She was totally unable to comprehend it, and could not form a visual picture of its existence and operation in her mind.

Yang Yuan said helplessly: "I'm sorry."

He reached out and held Belle's arm, pressed the corresponding acupuncture points on her arm, and then slowly guided his fingertips to the second acupuncture point, saying:

"This is Yunmen. Go down from here, pass Tianquan, Shaohai, Lingdao, Laogong, and then go to Zhongchong..."

While pressing the acupuncture points, Yang Yuan drew a line from one acupuncture point to the next. After this demonstration, Belle finally understood what acupuncture points and meridians were.

Although the concepts she understood might not be the same as Yang Yuan's, when she practiced according to this, there seemed to be a stream of air in her mind, which ran warmly along the meridian route shown by Yang Yuan.

Originally, Belle felt a little embarrassed when Yang Yuan grabbed her arm and pressed and rubbed her shoulders and neck to her fingertips.

She could only keep telling herself that she was learning a magical oriental technique from her teacher, and that it was pure and innocent learning, in order to conceal the shame in her heart.

At this moment, she realized that this kind of oriental magic really had a magical reaction, and she immediately immersed herself in it.

Belle said happily: "The Force that the teacher taught me is really amazing. I seem to have sensed it."

Yang Yuan corrected him: "This is not called original force, it's called internal force."

Seeing that Bei'er seemed to be having some difficulty understanding, Yang Yuan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. It's just a name anyway."

He taught Bei'er a few more meridian routes and said with a smile, "Bei'er is much better than I was at the beginning. At the beginning, I just memorized these acupuncture points and the routes that need to be circulated in each Zhoutian, and I don't know how long I worked so hard to memorize them.

Although you are a Westerner and do not understand the concepts of my Eastern meridians and acupoints, you only need to do it once to remember them. In this way, once you understand how to operate them, you will master them faster than I did. "

After hearing this, Belle couldn't help but smile happily. That sweet smile was reflected on her pretty face, and it was so dazzling.

Yang Yuan said: "Since you have this ability, I might as well teach you the first part at once, so that it will help you recover your brain power as soon as possible."

Emmanuelle thought to herself, "I don't care if it stops my headaches. I just want to learn this magical technique so I can have the strength to crush the bottom of a bowl with just two fingers."

Yang Yuan then taught her a way for the circulation of Qi and energy channels, but the first time, she still needed him to give her direct guidance, really “pointing” and “tapping”.

The place where the breath flows along this route is from Shuitu point, Qishe point, Shenzang point to Youmen point and Zhongji point.

In other words, the "guidance" all the way down would be from her clavicle through her chest to her lower abdomen.

Yang Yuan coughed lightly and said, "The next meridian route will need to be compared..."

Belle understood at once and her face turned red.

However, having witnessed its magical powers, she wanted to learn it no matter what. She wanted to master this magical force.

Seeing that Yang Yuan hesitated, obviously he had no ill thoughts about her, Belle instead felt infinite courage.

She said solemnly: "Sir, you are imparting knowledge to me. This is a very sacred thing. Why should I worry so much? Come on! Please teach me, sir."

Belle puffed out her chest. If it weren't for her red face, Yang Yuan would have thought she didn't care at all.

However, others are eager to learn, so why should he, a grown man, be shy?

So, Yang Yuan raised a finger and gently tapped the tip of Belle's collarbone.

Belle's delicate body trembled, and she felt an itchy sensation where he touched her.

However, she stole a glance at Yang Yuan and saw that his eyes were clear and his expression was solemn. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and quickly corrected her attitude.

Yang Yuan tapped on her "Shui Tu Point" and said the name of the point. Then he pointed his finger downwards, explaining the point and simulating the direction of the breath...

When Yang Yuan first learned Zhelong Kung Fu, he couldn't remember a few acupuncture points at once, let alone several meridians for exercise. However, Li Shishi drew a detailed diagram for him, and he was able to remember it when he was free, lying on the couch while recuperating and reciting it silently.

But Belle didn't have that problem, she had a photographic memory.

Although she still has a problem of forgetting everything she sees, she can write it down carefully in her "memo" after writing it down today.

Yang Yuan gave careful instruction, and Bei'er studied diligently, and unexpectedly succeeded in teaching the first part of the exercises very quickly.

Yang Yuan said: "Okay, you just follow the order of the exercises I just taught you, combine them and practice them once, this is called running a Zhoutian."

Yang Yuan stood up and said in a gentlemanly manner, "I'm going out for a walk."

Belle felt very sorry and said hurriedly, "Sir, I'd better go out and find a quiet place to practice, so you can rest."

Yang Yuan said sternly, "How can that be possible? How can I be at ease with you, a woman, out there alone?"

Belle felt warm at heart when she heard this.

Yang Yuan said, "Besides, you are worrying about my affairs, so I should be responsible to the end. Okay, stop talking and practice quickly."

After Yang Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door.

Belle stared at Yang Yuan's back and felt that his figure was so tall and majestic!
Mr. Yang Yuan is truly an oriental gentleman who is loyal and polite!
Belle thought with admiration: "Compared to many of our sanctimonious gentlemen, and even some bishops, he is much better."

The door was closed. Belle sat up straight, put her tongue against the roof of her mouth, and began to practice seriously according to the method Yang Yuan taught her.

Yang Yuan walked slowly to the lobby. The store was quiet at this time. Behind the counter, there was a makeshift bed made of several stools put together. A waiter on duty was lying on it and snoring.

Yang Yuan knocked on the counter with his fingers. The waiter woke up with a start. He rubbed his eyes and recognized that the person behind the counter was a guest from the upper room in the back. He stood up and asked, "Sir, do you have any instructions?"

Yang Yuan said: "Open another room for me."

The waiter was surprised. There was no one else around, so why did they need to get another room?
An idea suddenly came to his mind and the young man smiled knowingly.

I guess this young master had some romantic encounter in Shanyin? He must be afraid that his favorite concubine would ruin his good fortune.

Or maybe he was afraid that the women he met would know that he had a concubine, so he wanted to set up another bedroom to make it easier for him to meet with the beauty?

The waiter smiled and said, "I know. Our backyard is just opposite to the 'Ting Tao' where you live. There is another house with the same layout.

But the houses on both sides are far apart, and there is another corner gate leading to the river for entry and exit, so even though the two houses belong to the same inn, it is difficult for people living on both sides to meet each other. "

Yang Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? Is that far from 'Ting Tao'?"

The man said proudly, "It's far. Even if we go straight, it's still a hundred steps away."

Yang Yuan said decisively: "Then I don't want it. Is there any vacant room next to 'Ting Tao'? Within thirty steps."

Soon, Yang Yuan got the key and walked away leisurely.

The clerk held the dozen copper coins that Yang Yuan gave him as a reward and looked at Yang Yuan's back blankly.

This senior official did not allow me to tell his attendants and concubines that he had opened a new room, and he chose to live so close...

It’s really hard to guess what rich people are thinking.

……

By daybreak, Emmanuelle Belle had completed several cycles of practice.

When she opened her eyes, she felt refreshed. The headache had disappeared, and the physical fatigue and chest tightness were no longer there.

"What a magical oriental magic!"

Belle exclaimed with delight.

However, when she thought about the random thoughts that flashed through her mind from time to time when she was practicing just now, Belle's face turned red.

Fortunately, there was no one in the room, and no one else knew about her thoughts, otherwise she would have been so embarrassed.

It seems that what Mr. Yang Yuan warned me is true. This magical magic seems to have special powers.

But Mr. Yang Yuan has already left the inn, why do I still have...that kind of thought?
Belle thought about it and deduced a possible truth: this technique should have the power to stimulate the inner desires of the person who uses it.

It makes no difference whether the opposite sex is present or not after practicing this technique; it arouses a person's own latent desires.

Perhaps, one could call it the dark side of the Force.

In the church education that Belle received, all pleasures that are not for the purpose of procreation are evil.

But Belle has already felt the power of this technique, even though she has only just learned it and has not yet learned it completely.
After practicing the exercises, she felt as if a magical power had been awakened inside her body, which made her stronger and gave her a sense of security.

She didn't want to give up this powerful strength. Only her own strength was real strength. She didn't want to rely on Yang Yuan's protection forever, as that would make her forever indebted to this oriental gentleman.

She firmly believed that with her pure soul, chivalrous will and under the protection of the Holy Spirit, she would be able to overcome the evil in the dark corners of her heart. She could pray and confess.

However, what she needed most right now was a bath.
