I returned to my hometown after winning the koi lottery.

On a quiet patch of grass in the magic training ground, Li Fugui Miller's face was filled with curiosity and excitement. He smiled and said to Sister Alice and Teacher Emma who were sitting around him, "I just figured it out too. There's nothing I can't share. It's great that Teacher Emma is here too, so let's discuss it together."

The two of them sat on the ground in a lively atmosphere with curiosity and anticipation. The three of them formed a tight circle, and their eyes were fixed on Li Fugui Miller, waiting for him to share the wonderful story.

Li Fugui Miller raised his head slightly, lost in a vortex of memories, and slowly said: "When I was young, I met an old grandfather who came from a distant and mysterious Eastern country.

His eyes were as deep as the abyss, as if they contained countless ancient secrets. He told me many anecdotes about their place.

Each story is like a magic key that opens the door to my yearning for the unknown world. Moreover, he also taught me some wonderful spells. "

Miller Fugui Li paused, a childish smile flashing in his eyes. "At that time, I was young and just thought it was new and fun. I followed the old man's gestures and chanted those difficult spells, as if I was playing a special game.

I never thought that these seemingly simple things would have such a subtle connection with what we teach at our magic academy."

Alice leaned forward slightly and urged eagerly, "Dear Richard, please tell us what the similarities are. Share them with us!"

Her eyes sparkled with excitement, like bright stars in the night sky.

Li Fugui Miller sorted out his thoughts, stretched out his fingers, and said one by one: "First, meditation.

The meditation method my grandfather taught me has some similarities with that taught in college.

In the Eastern method, you need to find a quiet, comfortable place to sit, cross your legs, straighten your back, and place your hands lightly on your knees.

Then, close your eyes and slowly adjust your breathing so that it becomes even and long.

At the beginning, I always found it difficult to concentrate. It was like a group of naughty elves were making trouble in my mind. Sometimes I was thinking about the scenes of playing yesterday, and sometimes I was thinking about the snacks in my grandma's kitchen.

But the old man was very patient. He told me not to try to drive away these distracting thoughts.

Just like watching clouds in the sky, let them come and go, while your mind should focus on the slightest bit of peace between breaths. "

"In this way, I gradually learned to enter a state of calmness.

In that state, I felt as if I was in an ethereal world, everything around me became blurry and distant, only the inner peace was clear and perceptible.

After arriving at the academy, I discovered that the meditation here also emphasizes inner peace and concentration, but there are slight differences in the guidance methods and details.

The academy's meditation uses images of specific magical elements, such as twinkling stars, flowing water waves, etc., to allow us to focus on these elements and eliminate distracting thoughts.

But in essence, it is all about enabling us to take control of our own thinking and enter a deeper spiritual realm.”

Teacher Emma nodded slightly, a thoughtful look in her eyes, and said, "Indeed, meditation is the foundation of magical practice. Whether it is in the East or the West, although the methods are slightly different, the purpose is the same.

Through meditation, magicians can better perceive the flow of magical elements and enhance their own magical reserves and control.

Richard, it's very good that you picked that up. What about spells? What's unique about the Eastern spells you've learned?"

A hint of mystery flashed in Li Fugui Miller's eyes, and he said, "The spell that grandpa taught me sounds very rhythmic, and every word seems to contain unique power.

They are not as long and complicated as the spells in the academy, but are often short and powerful.

Moreover, the pronunciation of these spells seems to be related to a certain frequency. When they are recited, I can feel the air around me vibrating slightly."

He cleared his throat and chanted a spell in the tone of his childhood: "Taishang Laojun, hurry up and obey the command."

As the spell sounded, the breeze around seemed to blow gently, and a few leaves on the grass rustled.

“I don’t quite understand the meaning of this spell, but the old man said it has great power to purify the soul and dispel evil.

At that time, I just thought it was fun, so I followed along, and I didn’t see anything particularly magical happen.

It wasn't until I learned about magic in the academy, especially about the guidance of magic power and the construction of spells,

I suddenly realized that these Eastern spells might also use specific syllables and frequencies to mobilize the surrounding magical energy, but the method is more obscure and mysterious. "

Alice Peach asked curiously, "So how do you apply Eastern meditation and spells to actual magic? That sounds incredible!"

Li Fugui Miller scratched his head and said with a smile: “Actually, I discovered it by accident.

One time, I was practicing a basic magic in the academy - fire magic. I entered a meditative state as usual, trying to sense the fire element around me.

Somehow, the image of my grandfather teaching me meditation and the mantra of 'Taishang Laojun Ji Ji Ru Lv Ling' suddenly emerged in my mind.

I recited it subconsciously while focusing my attention on the palm of my hand.

At that moment, I felt an unprecedented warmth flowing out from my palms.

A small, but remarkably stable flame instantly ignited. I was so surprised that I almost cried out!"

Teacher Emma's eyes flashed with surprise, and she said, "This is a wonderful discovery! Richard, have you ever tried to cast other magic using this method?"

Li Fugui Miller nodded excitedly: "Of course! I tried some simple magic, such as levitation and water ball magic.

After using Eastern meditation to focus my mind, combined with those Eastern spells, I found that casting magic became smoother and the consumption of magic power seemed to be reduced.

It was as if Eastern magical techniques had opened a new door for me, allowing me to understand and use the power of magic at a deeper level.”

Alice clapped her hands excitedly and said, "This is simply amazing! Richard, you must teach us these methods. Maybe we can also discover new magical secrets like you!"

Li Fugui Miller said a little embarrassedly: "I am still in the exploratory stage, but I am willing to study with everyone.

I feel that Eastern magical culture and our own magic are inextricably linked. If we can combine the strengths of both, perhaps we can create a more powerful and unique magic."

Teacher Emma agreed and said, "Richard is right. The world of magic is vast and we cannot be limited to the knowledge taught in the academy."

The magical cultures of different regions have their own unique values. Mutual communication and integration may promote the development of magic.

Starting today, we can set up a small research group to study the similarities, differences and integration of Eastern magic and academic magic.

Richard, you will be the core member of this group and share your knowledge of Eastern magic with everyone without reservation."

Li Fugui Miller's face bloomed with a bright smile, and he nodded vigorously: "Okay, Teacher Emma! I will do my best!"

In the following days, Li Fugui Miller and Alice Xiaotao, two like-minded classmates, began a magical exploration journey full of novelty and challenges under the guidance of teacher Emma.

They studied every detail of Eastern meditation in depth, analyzed the pronunciation and magical fluctuations of those mysterious spells, and tried to perfectly integrate them with the academy's magic system.
