Chapter 22, ordinary days are easy to pass The most difficult moments are the most torturous

The words say:

Ordinary years of thousands of wishes, looking back at the red dust and sighing. The vast smoke and twilight clouds fly, and the gloomy mountains and rivers shine at night.

The long song is full of flowers, and the tears are sprinkled with the west wind. Zhaoguan wants to be white-headed at night, and Yishui Xiaoxiao is far away.

β€”β€”Proposed "Jade House Spring".

said that Zhao Liqian was determined to help Zhang Asheng, but he felt that Zhang Asheng was too honest and it was not appropriate to talk to him about some things, so he said haha:

"Senior Brother Zhang, those things in the sect are also grievances between the bigwigs of the sect, and they actually have little to do with us, but we should work cultivation the most.

Hey, junior brother, our own kung fu Tiangang hand and earth palm, you haven't learned everything, come on, come, I'll teach you!"

When Zhang Asheng heard this, he was moved, and said, "Okay, Senior Brother Zhao, then thank you very much!"

So the two of them, one teaching and the other learning, started on the cliff of the province.

Zhao Liqian first asked Zhang Asheng if he had learned the eight basic footwork and basic palm techniques of this sect. Zhang Asheng replied that the basic footwork of this door is A, B, C and D...... , the basic palm of this door, respectively, is the ...... of the sub-ugly Yin.

As soon as Zhao Liqian heard it, he was right, so he asked Zhang Asheng to make a look at the action frame.

As soon as the connoisseur stretches out his hand, he will know if there is one. Zhao Liqian looked at it, yo, it's really good! So Zhao Liqian started with the first move of the Seventy-two Road Tiangang Palm, and while talking, he gave Zhang Asheng a demonstration.

Zhao Liqian spoke very slowly, for fear that Zhang Asheng would not be able to remember, and after finishing the first move and nine changes, he asked Zhang Asheng to do it himself to show him.

Zhao Li didn't expect that he would only speak and demonstrate again, but Zhang Asheng remembered it accurately and did it properly, and his moves were exactly the same. Zhao Liqian secretly thought that it took me three days to learn this trick by myself, and Senior Brother Mu with the red nose also praised that it was very fast! Now compared to the speed of Zhang Asheng learning this trick, he is simply a turtle speed!

Zhao Liqian was even more puzzled in his heart: According to his qualifications, he has been in the school for nearly a year, and even if there are seventy-two roads in this Tiangangzhang, he should have learned them all! Why didn't Gongsun Fu teach him everything?

Zhao Liqian couldn't figure it out, so he had to explain self-righteously: Everyone says that Uncle Gongsun Fu is an old mad dog, it seems that he must have no common sense to do things, it's just that, anyway, I taught him, isn't it the same as whoever he learned this boxing method?

After all, Zhao Liqian is the eighth order of the acquired martial arts, and it is naturally more than enough to guide Zhang Asheng, a little boy of the second and third orders of the acquired martial arts.

Zhang Asheng learned quickly, but Zhao Liqian only taught the first six moves and fifty-four variations before stopping.

It was almost noon, and Zhao Liqian said: "Senior Brother Asheng, today I will teach you to come here first, and we still have to face the wall; in fact, when facing the wall, it is also possible to sit cross-legged, not necessarily standing upright; moreover, when facing the wall, it is possible to meditate." ”

Zhang Asheng listened, and suddenly realized in his heart: Oh, it turns out, cough, cough, Senior Brother Zhao, you all made me have to stand upright, and I have stood for so many days in a row, especially you, ouch, you are really rectifying me!

Zhang Asheng thought so in his heart, and said so in his mouth. Zhao Liqian's face turned red when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "Senior brother, this is also a helpless thing, in order to protect myself, brother and I have no choice but to do it." However, brother, I still have to tell you, if the big elder and the third elder come, brother and I will have to kick you, but this is to show them-

Brother, I have a method here, you remember: when I kick you again in the future, I must first shout 'I owe to beat and find a beating', and after you hear it, you will use your internal strength and true qi to your ass, and cooperate with my movements, to pretend to be very painful.

As for me, I won't really kick you hard anymore, but you have to cooperate with me and perform properly. In this way, it is possible to reduce the harm we receive. ”

Zhang Asheng has been very familiar with Zhao Liqian for a long time, so he smiled mischievously: "Well, senior brother, listen to you, this must be very interesting, right?"

Zhao Liqian secretly said in his heart: "Interesting, if we are caught cheating, alas, junior brother, you really don't know anything!"

However, Zhao Liqian said in his mouth: "Okay, junior brother, you go to the original wall of your place, and I will also meditate for a while." ”

Zhang Asheng returned to the original place facing the wall. After Zhao Liqian passed Zhang Asheng, he first practiced the combination of three moves: crossing the sea, the water waves are not rising, and the wall is standing a thousand thousands.

Zhao Liqian tried these three punches again, but he still couldn't find the feeling, and he felt that the third move was really difficult to connect with the first two moves.

I also thought of the third move that Zhang Asheng made in the examination field at that time, which was originally the old dragon returning to the palace, and Zhao Liqian changed the combination of these three moves at the moment.

Sure enough, after making the water wave not prosperous, when the old dragon returned to the palace, it was both convenient and powerful!

Zhao Liqian said secretly in his heart: "In vain, as an elite disciple of the Lower Courtyard Houtian Martial Dao, I have studied my own combination boxing over the years, but I have never thought of combining fist and foot moves with sword moves!

How did Zhang Asheng come up with the idea? Even if I asked Zhang Asheng himself again, he still didn't have a clue. But if you really want to find out the reason, you can still do it - of course, Zhang Asheng himself also understood:

The third move is more blunt than the first two moves, which is for another reason, and Zhang Asheng doesn't know this at this time.

At that time, Zhang Asheng had not learned the other moves of Tiangang Hand and Earth Demon Palm, and the only one he was very familiar with was the twenty-eight style Yuntai swordsmanship - in a hurry, he naturally used the Yuntai swordsmanship, but the trick of returning the old dragon to the palace was the most connected.

Zhang Asheng did it naturally, not the result of careful consideration, so if you ask him how he came up with it, he can't answer this question.

It's like an instinctive reaction, and to put it more closely, there is an element of talent and intelligence here.

It's like standing at the crossroads of life, you have to make a choice, or for example, love, everyone follows the feeling, but the lucky person, as soon as he chooses the right direction, the unfortunate person, even if it is a choice made after a lot of thought, the result is always wrong to look back after a while!

Zhang Asheng was in a hurry at the time, and he didn't even think about it, the old dragon returned to the palace, but in the eyes of Zhao Liqian at this moment, it was the best continuation!

Of course, Zhao Liqian is proficient in Tiangang's hand and the earth's shady palm, according to this point, no matter how urgent Zhao Liqian is, the continuation move he uses instinctively can only be the move in the Tiangang hand or the earth's shady palm, and he will not think of taking the sword to make up for it.

To put it simply, Zhang Asheng was different from Zhao Liqian, at that time, Zhang Asheng had no other boxing moves to choose from, so he instinctively made a sword move.

This is a coincidence, and it is even more difficult than falling in love and finding the right person at a glance! People who do not understand this will inevitably call this coincidence fate.

Zhao Liqian combined the three tricks of striking the sea, the water waves and the old dragon returning to the palace, the more he practiced, the more he practiced, the more he felt that he had a lot of experience, the more he practiced, the more he felt that Zhang Asheng was too genius, and the more he practiced, the more he felt that it made sense that this Zhang junior brother could be directly selected as a disciple by Gongsun Fu, but he could only start from the ordinary sprinkler boy in the lower courtyard bit by bit, this is really fate!

Zhao Liqian practiced happily for about half an hour, and felt that he had thoroughly understood the essence of these three combinations, and even his personal comprehension was better than Zhang Asheng's, so he stopped and came over to see if Zhang Asheng was meditating when he was facing the wall.

Zhao Liqian was completely well-intentioned at this time, and he had also seen clearly before that when Zhang Asheng was facing the wall, he had never meditated at all - after all, standing and meditating, he had never seen it in the Zixu Sword Sect.

Zhao Liqian thought that Zhang Asheng must be sitting cross-legged on the wall to meditate, but what he didn't want to see was that Zhang Asheng was still standing there upright, holding the cliff with both hands, supporting his body from falling.

Zhao Liqian was taken aback: Oh, hey, Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Zhang, didn't I tell you, brother, you can actually sit cross-legged and meditate when facing the wall! Now no one checks, why are you so honest?

Law enforcement disciples patrol every two days and deliver food to the provincial cliff, from now to the next inspection, there is still half a day and one night, you can't waste it like this, right?

Zhao Liqian stepped forward and woke up Zhang Asheng and asked, "Senior brother, why don't you sit down and meditate?"

Zhang Asheng said with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhao, I feel uncomfortable sitting cross-legged. ”

Zhao Liqian was surprised: Is this self-masochism? Or is it self-inferior? It's uncomfortable to sit cross-legged and meditate, could it be said that standing on the front wall for so many days, tired like a dog, is it comfortable?

How could Zhao Liqian believe it? At that time, he asked, "Senior brother, could it be that Uncle Gongsun didn't teach you how to sit cross-legged and meditate?"

"I've been taught. I already know how to sit cross-legged and meditate, and the mantra says, 'Hold your hands firmly, sit cross-legged and concentrate, your tongue against the roof of your palate, and breathe evenly', Senior Brother Zhao, am I right?"

Zhao Liqian nodded: "Yes, that's it." But why don't you sit down and meditate? Aren't you tired? Tomorrow the law enforcement disciples will come up to check, and now you can relax. ”

Zhang Asheng seemed to be confused when he heard it, and said puzzledly: "I'm practicing sleep skills." I now feel that I can sleep standing without supporting the wall, and it is much more comfortable than sitting cross-legged. ”

Zhao Liqian was surprised when he heard this: "You said that you practiced sleeping before, but sleeping standing up is too much, right?

When Zhang Asheng heard this, his face turned red: "Senior Brother Zhao, it's good for me to be like this, firstly, I really sleep well and feel less tired; secondly, I think that even if someone comes to check, I shouldn't blame me for not facing the wall." ”

When Zhao Liqian heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: The disciples of this sect are punished by facing the wall, and there is no requirement to stand upright all the time.

As for Zhang Asheng being asked to stand upright and face the wall, it was originally the people on the Great Elder's side who asked him to ask Senior Brother Ah Sheng like this, in order to torture him and kill him!

I don't think about it, it's only been a few days? Senior Brother Ah Sheng has actually practiced the ability to sleep standing up! Zhao Liqian was messy.

"Senior Brother Ah Sheng, sitting cross-legged meditation has the best effect, ordinary boy disciples are all cultivating desperately, which one of them is sleeping standing up? Although sleeping relieves your tiredness, cultivation really can't be relaxed. ”

"Senior Brother Zhao, I'm really practicing sleep skills. ”

"Come on. What exactly did Uncle Gongsun teach you about sleeping? Is there anything in this world that relies on sleep to cultivate?

I really can't guess what Uncle Gongsun thinks. You may not have seen that in the Nine-Fold Building of the Rapid Success Method in this sect, which disciple is not working hard to cultivate? Don't stand there, come with me inside, no one else inside can see at a glance - I will teach you the Nine-Fold Building. ”

Hearing that he was learning the new exercises, Zhang Asheng was of course interested, and immediately let go of the debate about sleeping exercises, and came over to Zhao Liqian with a smile.

Zhao Liqian first explained the first part of the nine-story building exercises, and after finishing speaking, he drew a big cake for Zhang Asheng:

"Senior Brother Ah Sheng, this exercise has a quick effect, and when you cultivate to the eighth floor realm, a person with high comprehension will be able to reach the Bigu realm, and it will be fast to leave the ninth-order Great Perfection of the Martial Dao of the Acquired Heaven!"

Zhang Asheng nodded when he heard it, and vividly expressed his infinite fascination for the "big cake".

Zhao Liqian saw it clearly, so he said: "It's useless to be envious, let's practice now!"

Zhang Asheng said: "Senior Brother Zhao, you can tell me all the exercises of the Nine Floors, I can memorize things quickly." ”

Zhao Liqian said with a smile: "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to remember, so I only told you the cultivation tips of the first floor." If you can really remember, I'll teach you everything. ”

So, next, Zhao Liqian began to continue to explain the second floor exercises.

Therefore, on days when there was no examination, or after the examination, Zhang Asheng practiced Tiangang hand and earth shaman palm in the first half of the day, 28-style Yuntai sword in the second half of the day, and practiced the nine-story building exercise in the first half of the night, and practiced the sleeping exercise in the second half of the night.

Although Zhang Asheng was still kicked during the inspection, it was already the majority of the two cooperating with acting. Zhang Ah is still thin, after all, there is not enough food.

The years in the mountains do not know the passage of time. Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhang Asheng has mastered the seventy-two Tiangang hands, the thirty-six earth swordsmanship, and the twenty-eight Yuntai swordsmanship.

In terms of internal strength cultivation, Zhang Asheng has already cultivated to the fourth realm of the Nine Floors, and in terms of strength, it is equivalent to the fourth order of the Zixu Immortal Sword Sect.

Zhao Liqian was very satisfied with this, and felt that he had done his best and could repay the grace of saving his life. However, Zhao Liqian was not satisfied with himself, because his realm was still the eighth order of the acquired martial arts, staying in the eighth floor, and he had never fully entered the Bigu realm, and he was still on the threshold of the Bigu realm.

Not only did the realm cultivation stagnate, Zhao Liqian also felt that in the past six months, although he had taken a step forward in his experience of the combination of his fists and feet kung fu, his mood had become less calm than before, and he seemed to be a little more irritable!

Zhao Liqian asked Zhang Asheng in vain, he couldn't help himself solve this problem.

Zhao Liqian also observed Zhang Asheng from time to time, Zhang Asheng's obvious progress is certainly gratifying, but Zhang Asheng's state of mind seems to have become much calmer than himself, which makes Zhao Liqian very confused.

Zhao Liqian began to worry in his heart, if he was not careful and went mad, then he would lose all his efforts and would no longer be able to climb to the realm of the True Dao - therefore, Zhao Liqian almost suspended his cultivation.

One morning, the red-nosed Mu Ansheng came up to check. Mu Ansheng said: "Ah Sheng, in the past six months, you have been kicked much less, do you know why?"

Zhang Asheng shook his head.

Mu Ansheng said solemnly: "Some time ago, all the big guys in this sect went out, and naturally, there will be fewer people who are troublesome for you - but tomorrow, after the third elder comes back, he will come to check in person, you have to be careful, he, like the great elder, hates you the most!"

Zhang Asheng was taken aback.

Mu Ansheng had already turned to Zhao Liqian's side.

Zhang Asheng listened to them and listened to Mu Ansheng: "Before you stand, these days, the inspection is not too strict, you should be able to see it." However, from tomorrow onwards, the inspection will be strict again! The Third Elder has returned, and he will come here in person tomorrow. ”

Zhao Liqian was stunned for a moment, in the past six months, he has been close to Zhang Asheng, and his relationship has become deeper, so he is naturally reluctant to kick Zhang Asheng again.

In fact, when the inspection gradually relaxed, he felt that there must be something in the sect, but this was not something he should ask.

I didn't want Senior Brother Mu to come early today to report it, it turned out that the Third Elder was going to personally inspect it tomorrow!
