A wealthy person with a reading panel

Chapter 77: Real ASMR! (Please read)
Sage time usually refers to the brief period of calm and desirelessness that occurs after sexual intercourse.

"As mentioned in this post, this state is not true clarity and enlightenment, but a shortcut to passively experiencing a similar state."

Zhou Qing directly switched to a new window and searched for the difference between "Sage Time" and "Clear State".

There is actually such content on the Internet.

"The former is a passive physiological reaction that relies on external stimulation to put the body into 'energy-saving and repair mode'; the latter is achieved through active training such as meditation, contemplation, and awareness, and can be entered voluntarily."

……

After carefully studying the difference between the two, Zhou Qing decided to take the "right path" first.

"Actually, the meditation methods I've summarized and found online are based on what Jin Yong calls 'concentrating the mind.' This is what Ding Yun mentioned during his first practice in The Untold Story. Try your best first and then give it a try."

"Just give it a week. If that doesn't work, use the Sage Time, this natural meditation experience card, to experience the feeling of being free from desire and thoughts. Remember that feeling, and then transform it into nourishment for active physical and mental training!"

"Of course, it would be even better if I could get the Qi sensation directly."

Others were worried that the sage would suffer from excessive time and experience, but he wasn't afraid. He was young, and he had taken snake gall, so his health was very good. Besides...

Zhou Qing's mind moved, and he called out the panel, and "looked" at the "Piece of Polygonatum" in the "Extractable Items" option!
"I have the background."

Polygonatum has the effect of nourishing the kidney and replenishing essence.

He sorted out his thoughts and looked at the time. It was almost five o'clock in the morning.

Put down your phone, turn over to your side, and slowly fall asleep.

I slept until noon and woke up. I ordered a takeout, then turned on the stopwatch on my phone and practiced "breathing exercises" for ten minutes.

I sat down at my desk again, picked up my tablet, looked up some more information on relaxation, and followed my thoughts before bed, and started designing with my pen:
Step 1 - Exercise, which must be high-consumption exercise.

Step 2 - Look out into the distance and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Or observe the flowing water or the leaves. (After the sweat has dried, do not play with your phone or watch videos.)
Step 3 – Take a shower.

Step 4 – Listen to light music, instrumental music, or ASMR audio.

Step 5 - Give yourself some mental hints for about five minutes.

Step 6 - Breathe in and out and try.

……

Zhou Qing designed six steps, put down his pen, and began to check to see if there was anything that could be improved.

After a while, someone knocked on the door. It was the takeaway.

He opened the door to get his lunch and found that Su Yao from 1903 opposite had just come back from outside. He suddenly remembered that he had won the "Nine Yang Manual" last night. He was so excited that he forgot to reply her message.

"Su Yao, did you enjoy your midnight snack last night? I'm sorry, I slept so hard last night and just woke up now, so I haven't had time to reply to your message yet."

He told a little lie.

Su Yao, a girl with a generous personality, didn't take this matter to heart at all. She smiled and said, "I'm very happy. It's a pity that you didn't come. We took advantage of the weekend to accompany Sister Lan until late at night."

Zhou Qing also smiled and said, "That's a pity. I will definitely participate in such an event next time."

"Okay, I'll call you if I have any."

The two talked for a few words, ended the conversation, and prepared to go back to their rooms. Su Yao suddenly remembered something and turned back and said, "By the way, Sister Lan said that her troubles have been resolved, and those gangsters should not come to the door again."

solved?
Did you give 500,000 yuan? Or something else?
These thoughts flashed through Zhou Qing's mind for a moment, but he put them aside - I still have a lot of things to do, why should I think about these things.

"That's good." He nodded in response.

He went into the house, opened the takeaway, took the tablet, and while eating, stared at the six steps he designed.

"Let's just leave it at that for now, and give it a try."

I read it twice, had my meal, and did some preparatory work. Half an hour later, I changed my shoes and went out to start the first step - exercise!
I jogged for ten minutes around the base of the complex to warm up, then started climbing the stairs. I climbed from the first floor to the nineteenth, went inside to drink some water, walked down again, and climbed back up again... I climbed back and forth five times, my clothes soaked with sweat, before I finally stopped.

I walked out of the apartment building and found a green plant in the community that was not exposed to the sun. While enjoying the natural cool breeze, I stared at the leaves of the small tree.

After watching for six or seven minutes, a lot of sweat dried up, but I didn’t feel that “peace of mind”, I just felt it was quite boring.

He decisively decided to shorten the process and take the elevator upstairs.

I went into the house and wiped off the remaining sweat on my body with a towel, went to the bathroom to take a shower, then closed the curtains and turned on the ASMR audio with light background music prepared on the tablet. I found a comfortable position to sit on the sofa, closed my eyes, listened, and gave myself psychological suggestions.

Fifteen or sixteen minutes later.

Zhou Qing opened his eyes.

"This time I seem to be closer to that state. At least this time, my heart is really calm at the end."

"This shows that my method is effective, but it requires constant experimentation... As someone said online, this process of constant experimentation itself is a form of cultivating one's mind."

Zhou Qing glanced at the time on the tablet. It was already past four in the afternoon.

"There's really no rush to practice internal energy."

"We agreed to try it for a week, so I'll stop here for today."

He took the car keys and prepared to go out. The door was open, but he thought about it and closed it again.

He walked to the desk, opened the drawer, took out the thin scriptures inside, packed them in his backpack, and took them with him.

Drive to Xiangshui Bay.

He arrived late today and the workers were already preparing to go off work. He took a look around, checked the construction progress and the use of materials, and after confirming that there were no problems, he didn't stay long and went downstairs back to the car.

He put his backpack on the passenger seat and reflected on himself:
"This is my first time getting a secret manual and I'm so inexperienced. I was so excited. Next time I win a technique, the first thing I should do is memorize the text instead of trying to practice it."

"Memorize it when you get home, and rewrite it a few more times to prevent forgetting it later."

As he drove out of Xiangshui Bay, he thought: The text of "Nine Yang Manual" is completely useless to others, and it can actually be kept as an electronic file.

First, you can save it only on a device that is not connected to the Internet.

Secondly, you can make more "magic skills secrets" and mix them together. Even if someone sees them, they will just think they are DIY by martial arts fans.

The car drove south and came to an intersection, where it stopped at a red light.

Zhou Qing thought of the attempt in the afternoon again.

"The main reason is that my body and mind were not completely relaxed afterwards."

"If you want to completely relax, you need to increase your exercise in the early stages. In the later stages..."

I turned my head and suddenly saw a very luxurious store on the side of the road. The colorful neon lights formed an imposing doorway - Tianzhidao Foot Massage and Health Club.

He was startled.

I suddenly remembered that Tanzhou is the city of feet and health.

Yes, listening to ASMR audio, what can be more relaxing than real-life ASMR?

I used to be too poor and too honest, so my thinking was a bit limited.

Now that we have enough money, we must open up our minds and horizons.
