Chapter 95: Fu Qinghai, an Elderly Jedi Cub

"It is an energy field created by all living things that surrounds and permeates us. It has the energy to hold an entire galaxy together."

— Obi-Wan Kenobi

"During the training process of the Jedi Temple, the Jedi youngsters need to form various training groups according to their personality preferences to live collectively."

In the stone room covered with brown vines and green moss, the old man Hu Xian asked with a smile:

"Then do you like the brave little bear group, the persistent little dragon group, the stealthy Katarn group, or the devout and intuitive Bogufa group?"

Fu Qinghai rolled his eyes:

"Jedi youngsters make the choice, I want all adults."

The old man Hu Xian put away his old laughing face and said:

"Okay, I'm not joking with you. I also joined the Jedi Order directly as an adult, so I didn't join these messy youngster training groups. We started directly from the steps of meditation."

"Have you ever meditated before?"

Fu Qinghai said: "Yes."

Space warriors rely on meditation to activate Sarsian meninges, and White Scar has always had a tradition of meditation. This tradition was requested by Chaghatai Khan genetically. Wo Kuotai explained to Fu Qinghai that it means reflecting on himself and reflecting on the battle gains and losses, but this reason is not to the extent that it needs to be mandatory. Fu Qinghai has always speculated that there may be deeper reasons.

Old man Hu Xian said:

"It is good to have a foundation of meditation. For Jedi youngsters, meditation is like a child's skill practiced since childhood, but for adults who have not received this training, it is very difficult to enter the state of meditation. Many people Once you close your eyes, all kinds of thoughts will come to your mind uncontrollably, and you will start to think wildly, and you can’t keep your mind free from distracting thoughts.”

A person, as the master of his body, how many organs of his body can he control? Rarely, not only can't control the heartbeat, gastrointestinal peristalsis, body fluid circulation, and even the brain can't be controlled.

There is a very vivid example in "Inception".

When someone tells you, "Don't imagine an elephant," the first thing that comes to your mind is an elephant.

This is the psychological "pink elephant" effect.

It reflects how difficult it is for a person to completely and completely control his thinking and keep his mind on it.

"Before we enter meditation, let me test your knowledge of the original force. What do you think, Qingshan, is the original force?"

This question stopped Fu Qinghai.

In his previous life, he read a lot of web articles about fantasy and cultivation.

The protagonists start to practice as soon as they get the secret book of exercises. Once they start to practice, they either rely on their talents or rely on hard work.

No one has ever thought about this thing I practiced, the "spiritual energy" between heaven and earth, the energy in the body, this "qi", what is it?

What is the Force?

In Jiang Wen's words, the Force is "really fucking good".

Fu Qinghai changed his mind, and suddenly said:

"The Force is nothing, the Force is a setting by George Lucas."

Star Wars is a European and American sci-fi comprehension novel, why bother to get to the bottom of it.

Old man Hu Xian laughed and said:

"You seem to have seen the essence of the problem through the appearance, but in fact you just shook your wits. There is no answer to this question. Maybe Industrial Light and Magic doesn't know what the Force is."

"The Jedi Knights have been studying the Force for centuries. Their cognition and views on the Force are not static, and they are constantly innovating. From the earliest binary principle of the Light Force and the Dark Force The theory of force, the unified theory of force and the theory of the force of life, which are more popular up to now, are all trying to explain the essence of force.”

The representative figure of the theory of life force is Anakin Skywalker's master, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

"All these theories of the Force have their own flaws and inexplicable places. Maybe in the future, you can also propose your own theory of the Force, the Unified Theory of the Force, to explain everything in the Star Wars universe. Force phenomenon."

"Not much nonsense, then next, follow my guidance, and we will start to meditate."

It's started... Fu Qinghai thought to himself.

According to past experience, Fu Qinghai sat cross-legged, palms up, closed his eyes, and calmed down.

Old man Hu Xian's voice rang in his ears:

"Very well, you have achieved the first step. Now, take fifteen to twenty minutes to patiently control your breathing, relax and close your eyes, and begin to search for the energy around you with heart and patience."

...

"The third step, maintain this state of mind and posture, and then start imagining the small, light object you want to move, preferably paper, and focus on your intention to do so, imagining the object moving the way you want it to move. Go on, however much time you need, to feel the balance between you and the object."

...

"Right now, focus on your intentions, use the energy that you can feel around you right now to move the objects in front of you, and remember to focus, maintain proper posture, be patient and relaxed."

...

"Place your dominant hand in front of you, imagine you're holding a spherical object, and take the time to notice the stress points on your palm, which are the most sensitive parts of your palm."

...

"Do the same with your whole body, find those sensitive stress points. Now that you've generated a lot of energy, start funneling it to another object, which can cause it to move, shatter, or harden. "

...

For a week, except for the necessary hunting time, Fu Qinghai and Hu Xian stayed in the stone room, practicing the meditation of the original force.

Fu Qinghai just thought of a rather creative idea to infect himself with the rules of the Force of the Star Wars universe, not to say that he directly awakened the Force.

How to practice, you still have to practice step by step.

As the old man Hu Xian said, Fu Qinghai's qualifications are average, and his sensitivity to the force is average, so he is definitely not outstanding.

Let Fu Qinghai have a certain psychological preparation for the difficulty of practicing the original force.

But fortunately, Fu Qinghai once had the experience and foundation of meditation, and he entered the state quickly. Secondly, Fu Qinghai once "felt" the feeling of Hu Xian when he used the force through genetic detection nerves. "Feel", to find the trick to perceive the Force.

It took Fu Qinghai three weeks to finally move a dead leaf that was three meters away from him by one centimeter.

"Congratulations!" Hu Xian said with a smile:

"The Force Awakens."

Fu Qinghai shook his head with a wry smile.

The scene of the old man Hu Xian's precise manipulation of the original force flying sword to decapitate the Orcs is still vivid. With Hu Xian's jewels in front of him, Fu Qinghai's small progress and breakthroughs seem worthless.

Old man Hu Xian was very excited. It was also his first time mentoring a Jedi apprentice. In his opinion, any progress made by Fu Qinghai was worthy of encouragement.

Old man Hu Xian said:

"Then let's start the next stage of study, close your eyes and start meditating."

Fu Qinghai closed his eyes as he said, relaxed his sitting posture, and cleared away distracting thoughts.

After three weeks of meditation training, he has become very proficient in this method.

The old man Hu Xian, who was sitting cross-legged across from Fu Qinghai casually, didn't look at Fu Qinghai, but lowered his head and stared at the long-beetle-like black beetle that had been slowly crawling on the stone ground in front of him.

Old man Hu Xian stared at the beetle, and said slowly:

"Now, recall everything around you before you closed your eyes, and try to use the force to perceive them, those living objects, let the breath of flowers, plants, trees and trees pass through your force."

Seeing that Fu Qinghai seemed to have entered a state of concentration and ecstasy, Hu Xian asked softly:

"Now, tell me, what's on your left, at ten o'clock?"

The black beetle lifted its legs slightly, and then slowly lowered them. It paused, and the two tentacles on top of its head swayed slowly. It seemed to be sensing something with its tentacles.

Fu Qinghai felt it for a while, and said:

"It's an empty lot with nothing in it."

"well."

The old man Hu Xian sighed and rubbed his forehead helplessly.

Hearing old man Hu Xian's sigh, Fu Qinghai opened his eyes and looked to the left.

I saw a black beetle crawling slowly on the ground.

"Well……"

Fu Qinghai knew why Hu Xian sighed.

I couldn't sense the existence of this beetle with the force.

It is true that my aptitude is too mediocre. Is this the result of having less fibrils? Fu Qinghai thought to himself.

As if seeing Fu Qinghai's thoughts, the old man Hu Xian shook his head and said:

"You rely too much on your superhuman organs, Qingshan. It is undeniable that your senses of sight, hearing, smell, and touch are very sensitive, far beyond ordinary people, but at this moment you have to find a way to abandon them and focus on using the force to perceive and perceive surroundings, rather than letting your super-organs interfere with you."

Fu Qinghai nodded, understood.

Just as when Daredevil Mark Murdoch lost his sight, the other four senses were enhanced.

When you rely too much on one sense, such as vision, other senses will be weakened unconsciously.

Daredevil was once repaired by the Extremis virus, but then he lost his strong perception of the surrounding environment, so at the end of the story, he gave up the chance to restore his vision and turned back into a blind lawyer.

At this moment, Fu Qinghai could only try to shield his five senses as much as possible.

He couldn't poke his eyes blind, pierce his eardrums, and cut off his nose in order to learn the perception of the Force.

Although Daredevil's blindness is a blessing in disguise, he didn't do it voluntarily.

...

The morning mist was still lingering, and the sun was still hidden behind the forest leaves. Fu Qinghai and old man Hu Xian stood face to face on an open and flat mountain meadow.

Hu Xiandao:

"Communicating the Force through meditation is a persistent and long-term thing. It depends on your own continuous practice. The subsequent meditation is up to you. Now, we will directly start learning the lightsaber swordsmanship."

Old man Hu Xian asked:

"Have you ever used a sword weapon before?"

Fu Qinghai nodded: "I have a certain foundation in cold weapon fighting."

Fu Qinghai dared to say this because he had a certain amount of strength and confidence. As mentioned earlier, space fighters generally don't practice hand-to-hand combat very much, because there are not many scenarios for applying it in actual combat.

But fighting with cold weapons is the most common practice and competition item of each Astartes legion.

Various chainsaw weapons and power weapons require the support of close combat skills.

Different legions also have different cold weapon fighting styles and cultures.

The death cage duel culture of the Imperial Fists, the Emperor's Children are intoxicated by the beauty of swordsmanship.

Chogris people like to use knives. Fu Qinghai's knives are inherited from the white scars. The style is simple, practical and fast. In the process of practicing with each other, they also learned a lot about the Macragge sword fighting technique of the Ultramarines.

Old man Hu Xian said with a smile:

"I can hear that you are very confident in your sword skills. But I have to remind you that a lightsaber is different from any sword you have used before. The blade of a lightsaber is almost weightless. There is also almost no air resistance when waving in the air."

"The advantage is that it's faster and more agile than any melee weapon you've used before."

"The disadvantage is that you can't use the weight of the lightsaber itself to kill the enemy."

Old man Hu Xian is right. The essence of the lightsaber blade is the plasma beam wrapped and controlled by the magnetic confinement force field + magnetic fluid recovery system. Plasma has no weight and air resistance.

The lighter the weight of the weapon, the more flexible and easier it is to control, but the lighter the weapon, the better, because in many cases, momentum itself is a kind of weapon. Youdao is an epee without a front, and it is true that there is an epee. Bladed, its killing principle is similar to blunt weapons such as sticks and hammers.

The disadvantage of the lightsaber is that it only has the function of cutting, without any momentum damage.

The old man Hu Xian said: "I only have a lightsaber here. This is a lightsaber I made with my own hands. You can't control it. So, now let's use wooden sticks to simulate lightsaber practice and learn sword skills."

"You find a relatively light branch that you feel does not have much resistance and weight when you swing it, and treat it as a lightsaber."

Hearing this, Fu Qinghai leaned over and picked up a stick, saying:

"Then let's start, Mr. Hu Xian."

Old man Hu Xian looked at the stick in Fu Qinghai's hand and said:

"I mean you have to find one that has as little weight and air resistance as possible."

Fu Qinghai nodded: "To me, this wooden stick is equivalent to having no weight."

Old man Hu Xian choked.

Okay, okay, I know you are strong.

…………

Thanks, I don’t know what to name it, a tip from a book friend.

George Lucas originally set the Force as a ball of luminous energy, but he felt that this setting was too low. At that time, Hong Kong Shaw Brothers’ martial arts movies were popular in Europe and America. Affected by it, George Lucas Cass changed the setting of the original force to something invisible, similar to the setting of "Qi" in oriental fantasy.

In the original book, it is explained as the innovation and development of the cognition of the Force, which is actually George Lucas’s setting of the Force. At the beginning, he set the Force of light and darkness. The bright side of the Force is justice, benevolence, healing, etc. The embodiment of the element. The dark side of the force represents negative elements such as fear, anger, hatred, malice and so on. Later, I also felt that this dualism of black, white, good and evil was too low, too religious, too idealistic, and too unsci-fi. Later, I proposed a unified theory of the force, which was called the theoretical reform of the Jedi Order.
