"Two Feet Stamping Exercise" refers to the natural standing position of the whole body, with feet close together, arms hanging down close to the body, stretching the heels, lifting the body up, and then putting it down, performing rhythmic up and down movents. This enables the adjustnt of the ridians, bones, and joints throughout the body, helps relax tendons and bones, and plays a positive role in eliminating dietary stagnation and bad habits.
Among the ridians of the human body, the Ren, Du, Chong, and Dai ridians are the most important. When the feet are together and the heels are lifted, the Du ridian rises and the Ren ridian descends; when lowered, the Ren ridian rises and the Du ridian descends.
The Ren and Du ridians are like a pipeline, similar to an "II"-shaped water pipe where when one ascends, the other descends, and they are interconnected. During these movents, they can eliminate the body’s internal cravings.
While speaking, Lu Xuan lightly stomped his feet, five tis in succession.
And each ti was different, with the first two tis lifted higher and at a slower speed, with longer intervals; the latter three tis were lifted relatively lower, quicker, and with relatively shorter intervals.
His hands slowly moved downward, directing all the heat to the Yongquan Acupoint at the soles of his feet. The fingers and whole body naturally relaxed as he stood quietly for a mont, completing the exercise.
"This is the Vajra Skill. It’s similar to the Eight Pieces of Brocade, yet different. Compared to the Eight Pieces of Brocade, the Vajra Skill clearly aligns more with the Inner Canon," Lu Xuan added after completing the exercise.
"I think I understand a bit."
"But..."
Ji Xiuwen pondered and said, "From what you’re saying, aren’t the Eight Pieces of Brocade and Vajra Skill different from gymnastics?"
"Of course, they are different,"
Lu Xuan explained, "Whether it’s the Eight Pieces of Brocade or the Vajra Skill, they are health care techniques, while gymnastics is purely for fitness. Gymnastics can indeed exercise a person, but it does not have the effect of removing the body’s five strains and seven impairnts.
These exercises don’t have to be as fast as gymnastics; there’s no counting or tempo involved. The emphasis is on freedom, following the natural way.
Moreover, in terms of strength, the Vajra Skill focuses on internal strength, which can also be called hidden force. Whether with fists tightly clenched or fingers naturally together, using strength in the wrists, that’s hidden force.
This ans that the entire process of exerting force emphasizes consistent uniformity and continuity, rather than external force or strong force."
"Furthermore, practicing the Outer Eight Departnts requires calmness and naturalness from start to finish, with focused intention and internal spirit, especially the starting movent and the sixth movent, looking back on the five strains and seven impairnts, with the spiritual light reflection and closing movent—sothing gymnastics doesn’t encompass.
Moreover, the Outer Eight Departnts include initiating the qi chanism at the beginning and ending the exercise with expelling disease qi and gathering primordial qi—elents not found in gymnastics."
"Is the Vajra Skill really that amazing?" Ji Xiuwen asked further.
"Would I lie to you?"
Lu Xuan replied with so impatience, "The Eight Pieces of Brocade also have these effects; it’s just that I personally feel the Vajra Skill aligns better with the Inner Canon and seems more scientific from a Chinese dicine perspective.
Put it this way, for those who truly persist in practicing the Vajra Skill, even cancer patients can see therapeutic effects. Their constitution strengthens, they walk lightly, and regardless of work or study, they remain energetic, with many of their troubleso symptoms alleviated or even disappearing."
"If you don’t believe , just follow what I said and persist in practicing for one or two months, and you’ll find it indescribably wonderful."
Ji Xiuwen thought about it and said, "Okay, I’ll give it a try. It doesn’t look too difficult after all, although I fear my first few tries may not be very standard."
"I’ll teach you a couple more tis. If that doesn’t work, you can record it on your phone."
"That’s a good idea. Wait a mont."
Ji Xiuwen quickly took out his phone, turned on the recording mode, and then continued practicing with Lu Xuan.
After repeating it three more tis, Ji Xiuwen was quite familiar with the movents, and only then did Lu Xuan stop, taking a short break before sitting down to eat breakfast.
Soon, Ji Xiuwen returned to the room, drenched in sweat: "This Vajra Skill is indeed just as you said, after a long ti of practice, instead of being tired, my spirits are getting better."
"By the way, you ntioned this is the Outer Eight Departnts, what about the Longevity Skill of the Inner Eight Departnts?"
Lu Xuan turned to look at him: "I’ll teach you the Inner Eight Departnts after you’ve thoroughly mastered the Outer Eight Departnts."
"Alright."
Ji Xiuwen wiped off the sweat with a grin, "Getting you to move here was a good call. I’ve learned another skill. Next ti I go ho, I’ll teach my parents this Vajra Skill, give them sothing to do, and stop my mom from going to the square dances every day."
"Oh, by the way, my parents should be able to perform the Vajra Skill, right?"
"Yes, it’s suitable for both young and old," Lu Xuan replied without hesitation.
"Great."
With that, Ji Xiuwen also sat down and began eating his breakfast.
After breakfast, Lu Xuan looked at the ti; it was almost eight-thirty, not that early.
"I’m going to the Health Center. The uncle and the others are probably arriving soon. Can you tidy up the place a bit?"
Lu Xuan stood up, leaving these words, and headed off to the Health Center.
The Health Center sees quite a few people working during weekends as well.
Apart from the traditional Chinese dicine departnt, other departnts have staff as well.
However, they have their own rest schedules, and everyone’s working hours are quite similar.
But compared to the Chinese dicine departnt, other departnts are more leisurely, with not nearly as many patients. Having around ten in a day is considered a lot.
Not long after Lu Xuan arrived at the Chinese dicine departnt, Wang Youqing ca in with three other people.
Beside Wang Youqing stood his wife, He Lihong, who appeared just like a typical Northeastern woman, speaking loudly: "You must be Lu, looking good indeed. I’ve heard about you from Old Wang at ho, and I didn’t quite believe it until I saw it now. Seems like this guy wasn’t lying."
"Alright, stop making such a fuss," Wang Youqing said with a helpless expression. His wife had always been so outgoing and sociable.
