Therefore, Li Chuyi has never been as obsessed with becoming an immortal as other monks.

A chance to become an immortal and a plate of braised beef are put together, and he will definitely choose the latter.

It's not so much that he is a child who hasn't grown up, but that he is an authentic market citizen, with his own little dreams, and he strives to struggle out of his own small world in the rolling red dust. Even if you can only go with the flow many times, you have always insisted on your original intention.

He is like this, and so is Li Sinian, so he understands Li Sinian's mentality very well.

When the four uncles make money, he will go to share a share, and when the four uncles get benefits, he will scrape the skin with a dead face.

This is not only due to his greedy character, but also the indescribable tacit understanding between him and Li Sinian. Li Sinian was poor for half his life, and he didn't change his luck until he met him, even if he didn't want these things, Li Sinian would definitely give them, which can be seen from Li Sinian's mouthful on the premise of Li Chu every time he got a benefit.

If you really want to write it, Li Sinian won't even mention it.

The two of them have been guarding each other in a balance, so that their friendship will not be soured.

And the biggest reason why Hao Hongwei failed to recruit Li Sinian was because he didn't understand the importance of this balance.

The Hao family is wealthy, and Hao Hongwei is the master of smashing people with money. He admired Li Sinian's desire to solicit, and his heart-to-heart method was not too clichéd, but in his daily dealings, Hao Siye would still inadvertently do a lot of things that made Li Sinian uncomfortable. Giving help without asking for anything in return, maybe in Hao Hongwei's opinion, this is nothing, nothing is a dime, but in the hearts of people like Li Sinian, this is undoubtedly the same as charity.

When the friendship is mixed with the smell of charity, the poor and noble Li Sinian doesn't say anything, how can there be no mustard in his heart, and it is not surprising that Hao Hongwei's solicitation is fruitless.

This is not to say that Hao Hongwei is stupid, it is just that the experience of growing up has created the difference in experience. Li Chuyi usually pretends to be crazy and stupid, but others are smart and like a mirror in his heart, so he has always paid attention to maintaining the balance between them, so that Li Sinian has always been in an equal position with himself.

Even if he knows that there will never be a real balance, it doesn't matter, he just needs to do his best, after all, although Li Sinian is high, he is not a paranoid person who doesn't know what to do.

As the so-called gentleman's friendship is as light as water, everything is as good as you like.

Thinking about going back to find the fourth uncle to scrape some benefits, the little fat man turned his head, but saw Ye Zhichen looking at him expressionlessly.

"Uh..."

Hurriedly put away the hippie smile, piled up a well-behaved face, and blinked innocently and ignorantly.

Uncle Ye's expression is not quite right, it is better to pretend to be pure at this time.

After staring at it for a long time, Ye Zhichen asked lightly, "How long have you not practiced swords?"

"Practice often!" the little fat man scratched his head, "Once a day or two, I'm very diligent!"

"I'm asking you, how long has it been since you practiced swords?"

The same question, repeated again, Ye Zhichen accentuated the tone on the word "sword".

opened his mouth, Li Chuyi was a little confused, he didn't understand what Ye Zhichen meant.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Ye Zhichen said in a deep voice: "I know that you are diligent, and you will never stop practicing swords whenever you have time." But what you are accustomed to and think about interpreting the realm of sword momentum, the sword technique itself does not pay attention to, this is not considered sword practice. ”

"Is there any difference?" Li Chuyi was puzzled.

His potential realm was born from the sword technique, and the comprehension potential realm was also based on the sword technique, and in his opinion, the two were no different.

"That's what worries me the most, you've been in the situation too early, and now you've strayed from the right path. ”

Seeing that Li Chuyi was puzzled, Ye Zhichen sighed, and his face was straight.

"Your potential realm is born from swordsmanship, so you think that comprehending the potential realm and practicing the sword are the same thing, but in fact, it is not. The five realms of techniques, technique, qi, potential, meaning, and Tao, whether it is Taoism, knife method, swordsmanship or other methods, you can touch the class bypass if you have to enter one door. But have you ever thought about what these five realms are, why are they so magical, how did they come to be, and where are their roots?"

Li Chuyi was thoughtful, Ye Zhichen didn't stop, and continued: "Today I forbade you to use the power realm, have you ever thought about why?"

"In order not to let Li Sinian lose too badly? uh..."

Ye Zhichen glared, and the little fat man quickly shrank his neck.

Nodding at him angrily, Ye Zhichen said in a condensed voice: "I want you to see clearly, your potential realm is still an external force, and it has not become your own thing at all! Do you really think that you are a master of the potential realm? Do you think that if I don't let you use the potential realm, you can stop not using it?!"

As he spoke, Ye Zhichen raised his hand and leaned forward, without using mana or using any moves, he just reached over and wanted to touch Li Chuyi's forehead, but Li Chuyi had a sense of powerlessness, as if he couldn't dodge it.

Countless ideas instantly popped up in his heart, but none of them felt feasible, seeing that his hand was about to be placed in front of his forehead, he gritted his teeth and dodged to the side, but there was a crisp sound of "pop", and his forehead was still lightly flicked.

"Am I moving fast?"

Li Chuyi froze in place and shook his head stupidly.

"Then why can't you hide?"

"I ......"

"I" didn't come out of "me" for a long time, and Li Chuyi lowered his head.

He already understood what Ye Zhichen was going to say.

"That's why I said you realized your situation earlier. The Five Realms of Technique are actually not mysterious, they are just the result of sublimation of a certain Dao method after it has been cultivated to the limit. And your situation depends on your understanding by chance, which is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. Realizing the situation early can indeed make your swordsmanship beyond the ordinary and stand out among the sword cultivators, but it will also make you forget your original intention and the essence of swordsmanship. You forget that your potential situation is only occasional, your foundation is not solid, and you can't even enter the potential situation without a specific method, and without the support of the situation, your sword is fragile. ”

"Cultivation is like building a building, without the support of a foundation, how can you build a towering cloud pavilion? Even if you are talented and skillful, and you can build two or three layers with a poor foundation, but what kind of support do you take? Kendo is the root, swordsmanship is the branches and leaves, and the five realms are the flowers on the branches and leaves. Even if you are lucky enough to give birth to one, how can you want to give birth to another? You have no ability to provide for it! With your current background, you don't learn the basics all day long, but you hold the sword all day and meditate hard about how you can break through the situation and touch the artistic conception, this is like using peanut leaves to take root in leaves and doing the opposite, such a thing that violates the principles of heaven, do you think it is possible?"

Li Chuyi was silent, and when Ye Zhichen said this, he also completely wanted to understand what was wrong with him.

Since the day he hit him, he inadvertently touched the artistic conception, and these days he has been thinking about how to really stand in that realm. He knew that his situation was imperfect and far from reaching the realm of Dacheng, so he consciously continued to think about the various situations and strive to make up for it, but now, he put the cart before the horse.

As Ye Zhichen said, it is undoubtedly ridiculous to want a flower to bloom more delicately, not to think of a way on the roots and leaves, but to blindly spend his mind on the flower itself.

No matter how good the fertilizer is, the delicate one will always be this one, and it is absolutely impossible to make another one more delicate.

Looking back, Li Chuyi had to admit that his kendo had indeed gone astray. When he first arrived in Mobei, he was still thinking about how to use his swordsmanship more exquisitely, and defeat the enemy together with the situation. But with the improvement of his cultivation, the situation and fortune became more and more satisfactory, and he unconsciously did not pay much attention to the swordsmanship itself.

Compared with the previous step-by-step battalion, he later was more inclined to rely on the situation and the most powerful killing moves to defeat the enemy with one blow.

This is the case in the Xuanbing Cold Prison, and this is the case when he is against the enemy, Zhan Xiaomeng, Zhan Song Gao, including the just ended Taixu Palace Rebellion, his swordsmanship is all biased towards this way.

This can't be said to be his fault, after all, the opponent is strong and there is no room for him to play. However, it varies from case to case, and if you want to comprehend the situation and go further, it is useless to just think about the situation itself, and you still have to start from the root.

Looking at Li Chuyi's embarrassed appearance, Ye Zhichen nodded secretly.

In fact, Li Chuyi's performance today is quite satisfactory, although it is ugly, but it is effective. Concise, crisp, everything is aimed at defeating the enemy and winning, this kind of unscrupulous means regardless of the opinions of others, is very similar to his kendo.

But being more satisfied is not completely satisfied after all, Li Chuyi has room for improvement, and Ye Zhichen naturally wants to let him go further.

With Li Chuyi's cleverness, even if he doesn't say these truths, sooner or later Li Chuyi will figure it out by himself. But the trip of the demon clan is imminent, Ye Zhichen can't get out of his body and can't accompany him, worried about Li Chuyi's safety, he can only wake up in advance, so as to do his best.

Looking at the little fat man's humble teaching, Ye Zhichen was secretly amused.

The stinky boy usually doesn't listen to anyone, but when it comes to his own safety, this kid listens better than anyone else, and he is like the best student in the world.

Seeing that the little fat man dragged the sword to the corner and practiced one move at a time, seriously like a fledgling who had just learned the sword, Ye Zhichen nodded with satisfaction, turned around and sat down on the rattan chair in front of the door.

"That's right, the disciple's skills are not bad!"

A lazy voice suddenly appeared, close at hand.

Ye Zhichen was shocked, and after seeing the person who came, he hurriedly put back the hand that drew the sword, and said respectfully: "Junior Ye Zhichen, I have seen Tianyizun!"

After speaking, he was about to let the Taoist priest sit down on the rattan chair, but the Taoist priest waved his hand to stop.

"Don't sit down, I'm going to leave later, I'm here today to see my stupid apprentice before leaving. I didn't expect to meet you as soon as I came, it's really good, this kid has never been so obedient in front of me, which time is not to be honest with a few old punches from me, we have to have a good chat when we have a chance to go back, I have to learn from you how to discipline this kind of strong. ”

The senior laughed. ”

Where is Ye Zhichen willing to believe, if the Taoist priest can't teach his disciples, Li Chuyi will not be what he is today.

Seeing that the Taoist priest watched Li Chuyi practice his sword with relish, snickering at the little fat man who was so focused that he didn't even notice that he was coming, after Hao Youxiao and Xiaoyu ran over and bowed down, Ye Zhichen hesitated a few times and couldn't help asking: "Senior, where is Sanshenglin...?"
