Chapter 9 The True Meaning of the Willows
It was already a bright moon, and the cold moonlight poured into the col.
The col was not quiet at this time, and there was a 'thump' and a sonic boom.
"Whew~" exhaled a breath of turbidity, Qi Tian, who was sweating profusely, rubbed his red and swollen hands, and looked at Mr. Gao's message on the tree again, and was speechless for a while.
"I have something to do when I go out, and I'll be back in three days, and the pill beast will eat it when I come back."
In the clear moonlight, the trees were written.
After eating a blue plum, Qi Tianping resumed his breathing, the redness and swelling on his hands gradually disappeared, and he secretly said in his heart: "Hey, tomorrow I will go to capture the iron-headed pig and pick some yellow persimmons, although the blue plum can eliminate the swelling and pain, but my muscles and bones still have dark wounds." ”
In the process of cultivation, the body will be damaged to varying degrees, although the recovery of one's own body functions will be slowly adjusted, but the damage will continue to worsen and even affect future cultivation over time, so Mr. Gao will let Qi Tian eat some strange things every day to nourish Qi Tian's body.
After deciding what he wanted to do tomorrow, Qi Tian stretched out comfortably, found a comfortable position to pillow the hairball, and quickly fell asleep.
Suddenly, the black armor suddenly appeared, and after a while, it became as transparent as crystal, and a white animal skin slowly passed through the black armor and turned into the appearance of a book.
A trace of red mist rose from the book, and the mist flew towards Qi Tian's mouth and nose like a life, and the moment it touched Qi Tian's mouth and nose, Qi Tian, who was originally asleep, only felt that his mouth and nose were viscous with a hint of sweet smell, faintly out of breath, and he touched his nose and felt sticky. His eyes opened slightly, but in an instant, Qi Tian's eyes were wide open, and he didn't feel sleepy.
"It turns out that last time was really not a dream?" Ignoring the nosebleed, Qi Tian was completely frightened by the scene in front of him, the beast skin book wrapped in a thick blood mist was continuously absorbing the blood-colored mist, and at this moment, Qi Tian's nosebleed was still continuously transporting fresh blood, turning into wisps of mist fused on the blood mist on the beast skin book.
A feeling of dizziness came, and Qi Tiancai realized that he was now in a state of heavy bleeding, although it was a nosebleed, but he couldn't help but keep bleeding, so Qi Tian gave up after using the methods of raising his head, applying cold water, and pressing his nose countless times, because no matter what, the nosebleed would still flow, and eventually it would turn into a trace of blood mist and merge into the beastskin book.
"It's really miserable now, dead old man..."The words did not fall, and like last time, Qi Tian only felt that his consciousness was muddled and his consciousness was sucked away by the beast skin book with the blood mist.
It was still that unusually familiar and strange light, slowly approaching Qi Tian, and then turned into a dazzling light cluster and entered Qi Tian's sea of consciousness.
The point of light suddenly appeared, and a line of sixteen tricks appeared again.
Refining the source of qi cultivation, the truth is hidden in the source, the gas source is combined, and the creation is self-contained.
"Hey, it's these words again, what the hell is a dream or not? Qi Tian scratched his head, and there was a feeling of annoyance in his heart.
Although I experienced it once, I didn't feel it so strong last time, and the feeling of weakness before the coma was not as strong as this time.
"Huh, how did the characters become pictures?" Qi Tian is no stranger to these eight pictures, they are the methods that have been practiced since childhood, "I remember that my husband said that this is the eight styles of the Southern Deer Tribe. ”
"Hah!"
In Qi Tian's surprised eyes, the eight styles composed of the originally static and motionless light points flickered for a while, and turned into four other humanoid patterns that he had never seen before.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Suddenly, the first of the four humanoid patterns flashed brightly, and a trace of blood-colored mist rose, faintly condensed into substance, and in a moment a blood-colored humanoid was formed.
The blood-colored humanoid body moved, and took a false step, only to see that the blood on its body was abundant, and one arm was swinging at will like a wicker, but there was an inexplicable momentum in the swing, and the whole space seemed to be swinging with the swing of that arm.
"This is 'Whisking Willow', but how can it drive the entire space to swing?" Qi Tian muttered in his heart.
The swing of the entire space did not affect Qi Tian's observation, and unconsciously, as if observing a lark, Qi Tian at this moment was also carefully observing this blood-colored human form.
The blood-colored humanoid didn't have any other movements, but the arms kept swinging, which was the original method of exercising the willow whisk, and it was also the most difficult part at the beginning, Qi Tian secretly observed and kept thinking: "I remember, Mr. said that 'the willow whisking' is to follow the move so that the body can swing in a small way, so as to obtain a presentation of momentum and force, making the move more powerful." ”
"No, that's just a superficial perception. The Scarlet Humanoid stopped, and a buzzing sound emanated from the Scarlet Humanoid.
Qi Tian's heart was shocked, he suppressed the slight fear in his heart, swallowed his saliva, and said with some uncertainty: "Can you speak?"
The blood-colored humanoid was silent for a moment, and then spoke again: "Yes, in this sea of consciousness we can communicate. ”
"The sea of consciousness, communication, so you will explain some of my problems?"
"Yes, so you can understand it. ”
"Then I want to know where this is, am I alive or dead now?" After a little thought, Qi Tian asked.
There was another silence, and the blood-colored figure conveyed, "There is no point. ”
"Sure enough, the blood-colored figure said so, he should still be alive. ”
"So I wonder what you mean by superficial cognition. Qi Tian knew for a while in his heart, first of all, this should not be a dream, it should be in his own consciousness space, I have heard Mr. said in the past that one of the cultivation of qi is to strengthen his consciousness, after the awakening of qi xuan, in order to form the special ability to which he belongs, the first and most important thing is to be self-conscious, and form qi xuan into moves or forms according to imagination. Then it seems that the peculiarity of this animal skin is the embodiment of ideology, also known as the sea of consciousness.
"'Willow Brushing' is really supposed to follow the move initially, but what if there is no move, then what is 'Willow Brushing'?"
"A martial arts technique, right?" Qi Tian replied with some uncertainty.
"Answer correctly, apply the technique to the martial arts moves, and you can get an enhancement. So this technique can be used as a martial arts move, why not?"
"This seems to be a contradiction, if a technique can't be used in a move, then what is it?" Qi Tian asked with great puzzlement.
The blood-colored humanoid nodded, and said lightly in a flat voice: "There are no tricks to moves, this is a process, isn't it?"
Shocked in his heart, Qi Tian felt that a new door seemed to be opened, as if he was about to grasp something; "Can you please demonstrate 'Whisking Willow' again." ”
"Yes, but the power of the blood contract is not much, maybe after the demonstration, you will leave this sea of consciousness, two hundred breaths of time. After speaking, the blood-colored humanoid arm stretched out and swayed gently like a wicker, only to drive the entire space for a moment.
Qi Tian's mind was clear at the moment, staring closely at the blood-colored humanoid swinging arm, the arm shook lightly, it was still very slow, and it was not deliberately adjusted like himself, but it was too natural, as if it was really moving with the wind.
"Do you want to swing like that, do I want to remember how often he swings?" Qi Tian was extremely anxious at the moment, his eyes widened, and he didn't want to let go of every swing of the blood-colored human form.
"A hundred breaths, to feel, not to imitate. There was a hint of thought coming from the blood-colored humanoid.
"Feelings?" Qi Tian was slightly stunned, and then Qi Tian did not continue to look at the blood-colored human form, but began to feel the swing of this space, "Why can 'Whisking Willow' affect the space? Is it the use of qi and martial arts moves? No! It is natural! It is integrated into this space, and the two resonate." ”
The oscillation of nature, the force that blends into nature, the force that conforms to and drives nature, and then the resonance.
"That's right, the true meaning of 'whisking willow' is to conform to nature, but I still have to conform to nature, and I should ......" Qi Tian's head kept running and thinking.
"Two hundred breaths, it's still a superficial cognition, feel it more, next time I have to make up more blood contract power. The blood-colored humanoid's tone was a little disappointed this time, interrupting Qi Tian's thoughts.
"Wait..."Qi Tian only felt that his eyes were dark, his consciousness fell violently from a height, his ears "buzzed" non-stop, the strong light shone, and when he opened his eyes again, he was still lying in the col of cultivation, and the sun was hanging high in the sky.
I touched my nose, and there was not the slightest trace of nosebleeds, and the animal skin was honestly tied around my waist.
Qi Tian rubbed his dizzy head, every time the animal skin mutates, it needs the power of the blood contract, doesn't he have to bleed profusely every once in a while?
"Hey, the old man is not allowed to tell anyone, Brother Erhu is not around, and there is no one to discuss, do you want to tell the teacher about him......" Qi Tian was extremely hesitant in his heart.
After thinking for a while, Qi Tian thought that Mr. Gao had said that the old man was not an ordinary person, and maybe he would get an answer from the old man in the future, so he didn't bother immediately.
Qi Tian stretched his waist, and a carp stood up and moved his muscles slightly.
Immediately threw a punch, thinking of the swinging method of the blood-colored humanoid in his mind, Qi Tian swung gently, and a trace of unusual strength faintly emitted, and the 'Whisk Willow', which originally needed to deliberately control the muscles, strength, speed, and direction, was actually even more powerful.
Qi Tian, who felt this power, was full of excitement on his face, and there was only one thought in his heart: "It's amazing, it's incredible, it seems that the things left by the old man are really not so simple." ”
At this time, he didn't know that this was the first step to truly master the 'willow whisking' technique.
