14 1.14: Losing Self and The Third Eye (2/2)
”ROTTEN JACKFRUIT YOU FALL!!!” shouted Cheng and imitated the way the old man's talk before all three of them were in stitches again.
I dusted myself off and climbed the gazebo again. This time I followed his stance, my left foot slightly outwards, arms stretched and palms on his shoulders. As the old was of short stature, I cannot help by putting my hands on his second-highest apex of the body. When I was about to push, he suddenly grabbed my two wrists and I can feel a surge of unknown energies or electricity traveling from his wrists down to my arms, my chest then the body, my abdomen and then down to my legs before the energies I felt it travel upwards and then reached the crown of my head.
”Hhuuaaaaaaa.....!!!”
I can feel not only the sudden surge of energies but can also sense or hear the crackling and sizzling of energies as it went through my body. After some moments, he released my wrists and I suddenly went jelly at my knees and slumped on the ground like a huge pile of flab. He held his hand under my arm and effortlessly brought me to my feet. He guided me towards the edge of the settlement like the blind leading the unblind and stopped near a clearing.
”Now see what you? Moving things? Colors? Ugly ghost?” asked the old man as I tried to understand about half of what he said and peered out to the open area. Suddenly, behind some thick tree trunks, I saw a white figure that was 'peek-a-boo'ing at my direction and also a kind of slithering multispectrum kind of figure like cloth moving around the trees. ”It can't be right!!! Its still daytime and I can see spirits wandering!” I thought aloud to myself. ” I can see what others cannot see,”I said after some time, afraid that saying in a direct manner would make those spirits follow me back home.
”Good...Good... You Third Eye open. Directly do not call name. Say you saw friends, OK?” advised the old man as if he had read my mind openly. ”Yes, Master. Thank you.” I profusely thanked the old man. ”About the Qi, how to make use of it?” I pondered when I wanted to find out more about the uses of the Qi that was somehow transferred or unlocked.
”You one hour meditate. One day one time. Everyday. From tonight.Your Qi flow increase one day one percent. One hundred days become one hundred. Now Losing Self. Next upgrade. Gathering Chi. Internal energy. Concentrate. Hit or Kick. Leg kick or hand punch become BIG. Strength multiply. Boomboom.....!!! You come. One hundred days here.” replied the old man in his manner.
”Yes Master, I come here in one hundred days time to upgrade. At the same time, I meditate every day for about one hour. So whenever I kick or punch the leg or arm that I used will multiply in strength right?” I repeated his instructions carefully so I do not miss a thing.
”Good boy,” that was his remark as I repeated what he had advised me a few moments ago.
I turned and looked at the three brothers and found out that they were mimicking the actions just now just like in a slow kungfu movie and when they caught a glimpse looking at them, they fall back on the ground and cracked into laughter again.
”Bloody loco...”
