The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 52 - 51 Practice Innate Skill
What is "Innate"? It refers to the state of a person before they are born.
At the moment of birth, before coming into contact with the acquired world, one already carries the Innate Qi.
However, upon exposure to the external world, one's purity gradually becomes clouded, tainted by the acquired environment, causing the Innate Qi to slowly dissipate and become murky.
Innate Skill aims to progressively restore one's state to this original, innate condition during the cultivation process.
Why does this practice place higher requirements on a child's body?
Because one's Primordial Yang has not yet been released, the body retains the most essential and pure energy, which can double the effects of cultivation.
Therefore, when a child cultivates this practice, its power is even greater.
It just so happened that Fang Hao had no girlfriend, and his childlike purity remained...
After looking into Innate Skill, an idea popped into his head.
Why not give it a try?
After all, he was idle anyway.
Making this decision, he thought he might as well give it a try.
He didn't really expect to cultivate anything profound.
Such is the magnitude of human curiosity.
When a person is curious about something, they'll try it.
Driven by curiosity and the radio, Fang Hao became interested in this secret manual.
He began to attempt what was written in Innate Skill, starting with the breathing and exhaling techniques—the way to breathe alone was different from his usual manner, not just simple inhaling and exhaling.
The method included three types of exercises: the first called Chewing Teeth Skill, the second Tongue Skill, and the third Dan Head Skill.
Chewing Teeth aimed to produce Golden Liquid, which is commonly understood as our saliva.
Metal is associated with the lungs, from which the Liquids are born; water correlates with the kidneys, which govern the bones and generate marrow; teeth are considered an extension of the bones, hence chewing them helps generate Golden Liquid. Jade represents the beauty of earth; earth is the child of the heart and the mother of the earth is fire; the tongue is the sprout of the heart, thus practicing with the tongue can yield Jade Liquid.
Jade Liquid is born of the heart's fire; therefore, it is warm, while Golden Liquid is born of the kidney's water and is therefore cool. Warm relates to yang and cool to yin; when yin and yang meet, they form the Dan Head.
Fang Hao started by practicing the Chewing Teeth Skill.
What is Chewing Teeth?
It is tapping the lower teeth against the upper teeth, not biting them, allowing the upper teeth to remain still while the lower teeth tap against them. The purpose of chewing teeth is to produce Golden Liquid in the mouth.
Once the Golden Liquid is generated, the next practice is Tongue Skill, which involves flicking, sweeping, hooking, and rotating the tongue.
Flicking refers to using the tip of the tongue to flick one's teeth; sweeping means to brush the sides of our teeth with our tongue's tip; hooking is to draw the tongue upwards towards the upper palate of the mouth, lifting it; rotating involves moving the tongue in clockwise and counterclockwise motions, which increases the Jade Liquid in the mouth.
After producing the Golden Liquid, the next method is swallowing the Dan Head, which involves exhaling through the nose while retracting the abdomen - the most crucial aspect of the breathing technique.
It is essential to swallow the Dan Head right after exhaling and before inhaling, in the interval between breaths.
Swallowing the Dan Head allows one to channel the Golden Liquid and the acquired Qi within the body down to the dantian.
Though it appears to be a simple breathing and exhaling technique, it is not so easy to achieve.
Fang Hao only practiced it twice before he gradually mastered the method.
Then, he became deeply immersed in the practice.

Time slipped by unnoticed.
In this manner, an hour passed.
Only then did Fang Hao finish his practice.
He hadn't practiced for very long the first time.
After the practice, he found his mental state had substantially improved from before, feeling quite spirited.
It felt like there was a warm current inside him, warming his entire body.
Even the soreness he had previously felt in his body had diminished significantly.
Eh?
There really was a difference.
Initially, he had only practiced with a trying attitude, but after practicing, he indeed noticed something different.
This trial ignited Fang Hao's interest in Innate Skill.
He planned to practice more when he had nothing else to do.
He didn't aim to become a martial arts master.
casual practice for self-improvement and health benefits seemed just fine.
That's rather interesting.
His interest had grown even more.
It seemed that not catching fish wasn't such a terrible thing after all.
Fang Hao's mood had greatly improved.
At least not everything he hauled out of the water was useless.
Look at this "Innate Skill", it seemed to be quite good.
After practicing it, his mental state had improved a lot.
But for a fisherman, what he wanted most was definitely to catch fish.
His greatest wish now was to haul fish out of the water.
Feeling mentally refreshed and not tired, Fang Hao thought about going night fishing again.
He wasn't sleepy anymore, so why not go fishing?
Was he supposed to waste time at home?
Besides, he didn't know what to do when he was alone at home.
He didn't like watching TV or playing games.
It was perfect, he could go out at night to check whether it was a problem with the fishing rod.
To see if this newly bought fishing rod could catch any fish.
No time like the present.
Fang Hao was not one to procrastinate.
Once he had made up his mind, he would act immediately, without a moment's hesitation.
So, Fang Hao began to gather his gear.
Fishing gloves, clothes, and other fishing equipment, including the newly bought fishing rod, all had to be taken.
At the same time, Fang Hao also changed the title in his live stream room as a notice to his viewers that he would be going fishing tonight.
After organizing his things, Fang Hao did not hurry out the door.
He still needed to think about where to go fishing.
Baisa Reservoir, that place was a PASS, Fang Hao did not want to haul something strange out of there again.
He always felt that place was not compatible with his fortune.
And Binjiang was where he had just been during the day, not catching anything worthwhile.
Although he wasn't sure if it was the location or the rod that was the problem, he decided to switch spots.
After all, the Binjiang area had an affluent water system with many fishing spots, and he was not limited to fishing in one place.
He decided to head to another larger tributary, the Tongyang River.
This place was also quite good for fishing.
Fang Hao had been there a few times before he started live streaming, and each time he had made a catch.
He felt that this might be his lucky spot.
Where he could catch fish.
After making up his mind, he packed up all kinds of equipment needed for night fishing and put them in the car.
The live streaming equipment that needed charging had been charged, so there would be no power cuts in the middle of streaming.
He had prepared all the night fishing equipment.
Only then did Fang Hao set off.
This time, he didn't call anyone else to join him.
He was planning to go night fishing alone.
Off he went!
...
"Eh? What's this? The host is going night fishing again in the evening?"
"I'm not seeing things, am I?"
"Hahaha, what a pleasant surprise, I was just wondering when I'd be able to see the host's live stream again, but it turns out there's another one tonight."
"Wow, fishing this frequently? He went during the day... and now again at night, has the host gone mad? Does he not need sleep? Can his body handle it?"
"Are all fishermen this hardcore?"
Some netizens were quite surprised after seeing the updated title in Fang Hao's live stream room.
