Book 1-13 How to breathe, how to not breathe
(TL: I know it sounds like it should be how to breathe, how not to breathe, ie correct way to breathe, which makes sense with the content of the chapter, but the raw says how to breathe and how to not breathe I’ to stay true to the raw for now If so comes up later that tells me it should be the other way, I’ll update at that point)
“The first thing to learn is how to breathe, and how to not breathe”
“What?”
Yulian was confused by Chun Myung Hoon’s words and responded
“You’reyou will learn is how to breathe and how to not breathe”
“That’sHoon’s fist struck Yulian’s storoaned and bent forward in pain as he spoke
“Ow! Master, why are you hittingfrom me First, you will never question what I say No matter what, your answer should be Yes, Master Got it?”
“What kind of rule is that?!”
“POW!”
“Even after I explain it to you, you don’t listen Back then and even now, if someone doesn’t listen to me, I beat them up That is the second rule Got it?”
“What…”
Yulian changed his response as soon as he saw Chun Myung Hoon’s fist raise up
“Yes, Master”
“Great That’s the way My word is law and all you need to do is listen and learn It’s such a si Hoon nodded, as if he was satisfied with Yulian’s quick adaptation
Although Yulian had issues with it, he decided that if this was his Master’s way of teaching, he will not coh Whether it was a dad teaching his son or an older warrior teaching a younger warrior, it was the sa as your own opinion, and there definitely was no way to not listen to their advice
That’s the type of place the desert was
The desert is where the thing that you pay attention to today could be what saves your life tomorrow Because of this, all of the desert tribes pay their respect to the elders in the tribe There was nothing to throay aathered
Yulian knew this to be a fact; this is why he was able toHoon’s instructions
“When you are breathing, breathe in until you count to five When you are breathing out, breathe out until you count to ten You also need to o slowly so that youGive it a try”
Yulian tried breathing in and out, following Chun Myung Hoon’s instructions
“So else to pay attention to is that your sto in, suck in your sto out, stick your stomach out”
Yulian followed the instructions and replied:
“It’s not as easy as I thought it would be”
“Think about it as if you are breathing through your back That should h your back?”
Yulian had questions about Chun Myung Hoon’s incomprehensible words, but decided to do as he was told He focused on breathing through his back as he took a breath in, and it was a bit easier, as Chung Myung Hoon indicated
“Do I have to continue breathing like this?”
Chun Myung Hoon replied to Yulian’s question
“To be honest,Youmethod whenever you are awake Truthfully, you should also continue it while you are sleeping, but it is still too soon for that What I am certain about, is that if you are able touess it will be easier in the beginning if we cut down your sleeping tiet used to it and master it completely so that you can breathe like this even when you are sleeping”
As Yulian tried to deter returned to nor method In that moment, Yulian felt intense pain on top of his head
“POW!”
“Ah! Master, why are you hitting o back to how you used to breathe even though I just taught it to you? I must be strict with you as you are both my first and my last disciple If you are useless, won’t it make me also look useless as your master?”
“But do you have to hit ain
“I told you talking back was not allowed For the nextthislike this, it will only delay your path to learning h this , I will never talk back again”
