It is said that during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a family named Liu, whose family background was good, but he was very low-key, never liked to make public, and rarely went out when he was free, so he was called Liu Weng.
Liu Weng used to be a scholar. Although his starting point was not low, his career development was not ideal. His official position is only a small magistrate of a county, but Liu Weng doesn't value fame and fortune, but he also enjoys himself.
In the process of making county magistrate, Liu Weng became fascinated with Taoist Qigong. He thinks that instead of wasting time on intrigue, it is better to learn internal cultivation methods in order to achieve the purpose of prolonging life.
Liu Weng learns the way of keeping in good health at home every day, and often uses Huatuo's five-bird play to exercise. Over time, Liu Weng's approach has become more and more handy.
Liu Weng, who started practicing at the age of 30, is 90. After 60 years of hard work, Liu Weng has reached a certain level. Obviously 90 years old, he looks like he is in his early 50 s, which is simply rejuvenation.
Liu Weng's cultivation method shocked everyone nearby. He goes out occasionally, and all the neighbors he meets exclaim when they see him, saying that this is a living fairy, but he walks like a fly, has blond hair and a childish face, and is nothing like a 90-year-old man.
After listening to Liu Weng's story, many people came to ask for training methods. Every time a guest comes, Liu Weng always smiles and pours tea, but says nothing about the method of cultivation. After a long time, others will not come, and Liu Weng has lived a quiet life again.
A few years later, Liu Weng's body became stronger and stronger, and even he himself thought that he would soon become an immortal. Liu Weng felt that he should enjoy his life after practicing for more than 60 years, so he asked his son to buy four little girls as maids and pour himself tea.
The son got things done quickly, and Liu Weng was very satisfied with the maid he bought, so he took them to practice "closed door" together, because Liu Weng had practiced closed door before, and his children didn't think much. He thought his father would be more energetic after this retreat.
But after 30 days, the maid ran out in a panic and told Liu Weng's children that Liu Weng had passed away. Liu Weng's children hurried to check and found a wrinkled old man lying in bed. Knowing that life is a matter of life, the four maids told the truth.
It turns out that Liu Weng's so-called "seclusion" is nothing more than further communication with four ladies-in-waiting, and the most important thing about Taoist Qigong is that he has nothing to want from his heart. After all, he was 90 years old, so he finally lost his life.
Liu's family was ashamed and the rigorous news spread abroad. Looking back on Liu Weng's life, he was able to adhere to the Taoist internal strength method for 60 years. It can be seen that his will is firm, and he is still happy at the age of 90. In the end, because I didn't control it, I ruined decades of practice and even took my own life. It's really amazing.
