I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state.

Returning from Zhongguancun.

At noon, we had lunch cooked by Aunt Yanjing in the courtyard.

In the afternoon, Yang Ming woke up from a long sleep.

It's starting to get cold in Yanjing now. It's cold outside and the heater isn't on inside, so sleeping under a thick quilt is still very comfortable.

After Yang Ming got up, he went outside to drink jasmine tea.

Yang Ming found that two aunts seemed to be missing.

While Ah Zhu was making tea for Yang Ming, she asked, "A Zhu, do you know where the other two aunts have gone?"

"Master, they asked for leave and said they were going to study with a qigong master."

Qigong master?

How is this going?

Suddenly, Yang Ming thought of something.

An incredible thing.

The Qigong craze broke out in the 1980s.

Since the late 1970s, there has been a so-called qigong craze in China.

Yang Ming knows that these so-called qigong crazes are definitely used by scammers to deceive people, so that tens of millions to hundreds of millions of people in the country have participated in it, wasting a lot of time, energy, and manpower, and also deceiving many people. .

qigong?

When they were in Xiangjiang, A-Zhu and others had heard of Qigong, but they didn't think anything of it. However, the Yang family felt that the so-called Qigong craze in this era was too absurd.

"Auntie, do you know where they go to learn Qigong?"

"Mr. Yang, it's at the Temple of Heaven Park."

Tiantan Park?

It's only two streets away from the Temple of Heaven Park, so it's not too far.

Since there was nothing going on in the afternoon, Yang Ming went to see what was going on.

Bodyguards such as Yang Ming, A Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jiahui, Lin Xiuzhi, Chen Zhenhua, and Zhang Guohua followed them out of the courtyard. Yang Ming and others walked to the Temple of Heaven Park two streets away.

In addition to the iconic Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, there are also many ancient buildings and trees.

The most important thing is that many places inside are very empty and can be used as shelters. In addition to some tourists, there are also many citizens of Yanjing who come here to exercise.

Since the emergence of the so-called qigong trend and qigong masters, more and more citizens have come here to watch qigong performances or learn so-called qigong.

The term "Qigong" was first seen in Taoist texts in the Tang Dynasty and was also recorded in the Song Dynasty, but rarely appeared thereafter.

Before liberation, various gymnastics, breathing techniques and meditation techniques were already widely available, but at that time they were not uniformly called Qigong. Instead, they were practiced in various religious organizations, mystical groups, kung fu guilds and even medical families. Exists under various names.

It was not until after liberation that the word "Qigong" appeared widely and frequently in Chinese, and gradually became a global concept, specifically referring to those physical techniques from country Z.

From an image point of view, "Qi" directly corresponds to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, but on a deeper level it originates from the traditional Chinese cosmology. It is one of the essential attributes that circulates among all things in the universe. The body can realize both itself and the world through Qi. External connections can also turn a certain space into a "field" with a specific state.

"Gong" includes a set of contents ranging from physical and physiological techniques to moral power. On the other hand, "Gong" is the main way in which "Qi" can be exerted on another individual.

Most Qigong requires a set of standard movements to be practiced. This set of movements is called "Qigong". The famous ones include "Xiang Gong", "Intelligence Gong", etc.

These exercises are all claimed to be founded and passed down by an iconic qigong master. People who join the "qigong" will form a social network, driving thousands of practitioners.

Each technique is taught to practitioners through regional "practice points", and this network can even expand to the entire country.

In a certain Qigong organization, practitioners are not only involved in the vertical management and control relationships between Qigong masters, their true disciples, and coaches, but they also have extensive contact with other practitioners in the organization.

In the 80s, there was a "Qigong craze" in China.

For a time, the whole country was involved in this craze for Qigong. Tens of millions of people across the country practiced Qigong, and "Qigong masters" were treated like celebrities and sought after.

At this time, Yang Ming and others had just arrived at the Temple of Heaven Park.

In addition to seeing some tourists, Yang Ming saw a group of people squatting in the distance.

There was a man in his forties with long hair squatting in front.

Seeing their strange movements, not only Yang Ming was curious, but Lin Xiuzhi and others were also curious.

At this time, Yang Ming and others were watching.

These people seemed to have been practicing there for almost half an hour before stopping.

What surprised Yang Ming and others the most was that in this kind of weather, these people were not wearing much clothes. In fact, their faces were a little red. They didn't know whether it was the cold or other reasons.

Among this crowd, there were two women. Aren't they the aunts who cooked for him?

Yang Ming asked Zhang Guohua to call the two aunts.

"Mr. Yang, you are here."

The two aunts were brought back by Tang Yun to cook for Yang Ming. They asked for leave to come here to practice Qigong.

Now that they saw Mr. Yang appearing here, they seemed a little embarrassed.

"It's such a cold weather and you don't wear much, isn't it cold?"

"Mr. Yang, we just practiced with the master. There is a sense of warmth on our bodies. We are not cold at all."

Isn’t it cool to practice Qigong with a master?

Yang Ming couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing these men, women, and children being so cold that their hands and feet were shaking, how could they not be cold?

"Do you have to pay to practice here?"

"If you want, everyone pays 2 yuan."

2 yuan per person?

In terms of current domestic salaries, 2 yuan is a lot of money.

There are thousands of people practicing here. Doesn't that mean that the master can earn two to three thousand yuan in one session? This is very profitable.

According to the current price of a courtyard house in Yanjing, it is equivalent to earning a courtyard house.

It seems that there is really no benefit in getting there early.

"Mr. Yang, are you interested in Qigong? Why not join our Qigong practice group?" said an aunt.

Yang Ming shook his head and said, "I'm not interested."

Yang Ming did not stay anymore. Apart from whispering to Zhang Guohua, Zhang Guohua was also a little surprised. Yang Ming and others walked around in the Temple of Heaven Park before he discovered it.

It turns out that Qigong fever has begun to appear in the Temple of Heaven Park at this time, and there are already several teams practicing Qigong. When they practice Qigong, they have various styles.

It just gave Yang Ming a very funny feeling.

Yang Ming and others saw some people holding small stainless steel pots used for cooking on their heads, as if they were wearing steel helmets. Some people were meditating on the ground, and some were assuming strange postures. These practitioners were all using their own The method accepts the atmospheric field from the universe.

"Master, what are those people doing?" Guan Jiahui also asked strangely.

"Practice Qigong! Accept the aura field from the universe!!"

Yang Ming left from Temple of Heaven Park.

Thinking of the scene he just saw, the Yang family thought it was quite funny.

The most important thing is that historically, this thing has existed for so many years.
