Ruoli said without hesitation: “Of course, Mr. Wade, please!”
After that, she handed her right hand to Charlie.
Charlie’s fingertips lightly placed on Ruoli’s veins, a trace of spiritual energy passed through the veins and into Ruoli’s body.
The spiritual energy wandered through her body, and Charlie immediately discovered that Ruoli’s eight channels of the odd meridian in her body had only opened up two channels.
The two channels of Ren and Du are actually the collective name of two channels.
The Ren and Du channels are part of the eight channels of the odd meridian.
There are eight odd meridians and eight channels, namely Ren, Du, Chong, Band, Yin Qiao, Yang Qiao, Yin Wei, and Yang Wei.
The reason they are said to be the eight meridians of the odd meridian is mainly that, for most people, these eight meridians are naturally unconnected.
The traditional Chinese martial arts and Taoist training methods are all about practicing energy.
This energy is stored in the body and sinks in the core. When it moves, it passes through the eight meridians.
Therefore, whether or not the eight channels of the odd meridian are opened up and how much is connected directly relates to the person’s strength.
To put it bluntly, if a person is an internal combustion engine, then the gas in the core is the fuel when the internal combustion engine is running.
The Qijing Bamai is the eight pipelines that supply fuel to the internal combustion engine. If none of the eight pipelines are opened, then this person is a completely ordinary person.
If one or two of these eight are connected, this person’s strength can rise by a large margin.
If you get through the eight points, you will almost reach the pinnacle of internal cultivation.
Ruoli has only opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and there are still six channels left. If she can get another one, his strength can be doubled.
It’s a pity that it is impossible to get through the eight meridians of the energy meridian in a traditional practice.
Taking the Xingyiquan of the He family as an example, for hundreds of years, only one ancestor of the He family has opened up four of the eight channels of the odd meridian.
For the rest, the best will only get through three.
In the current He family, only Ruoli’s grandfather Luther can open up the three meridians. In the forty years after he opened up the three meridians, the He family has never made a second one.
More, in fact, only one can get through in a lifetime.
