However, he is not without regret, because despite the precision of martial arts, it is still limited in its scope, an "art" with an end rather than an "endless path."

Originally wanted to name this book "Forget in the Rivers and Lakes", but since the title has been taken, I reluctantly released the first volume. Now this is the second volume, and I have decided to publish it as a new book. Just like before, there are no thrilling plots, just some personal reflections and insights during a certain period of time. I still adhere to my original intention of writing a book that can be read lying down. Thank you to every reader who likes it, and also thank you to the critical readers, because I know that at least you are truly reading, not just conforming.
