Session 3: Teaching

Yu Meng ran far away in one go, and she was annoyed, so she had already thrown Chongxiao's words that he couldn't walk around the clouds. She ran through the mountains for a long time, and before she knew it, she had reached the edge of the cliff at the top of the peak.

Yu Meng pursed her lips, bit her lip, broke off a branch on the tree, and continuously knocked on the big tree, while cursing: "Dead weirdo! stinky weird!" She beat for a long time, but the tree only stood still, and the branches broke under the successive impacts.

"Hmph. She pouted, threw away the branches, and turned to leave. As soon as I turned around, I saw him dressed in white. She hurriedly turned her head again, walked straight to the cliff, tilted her head, and thought to herself, "This stinky strange must have come to see my joke." ”

Sure enough, Chongxiao walked three feet behind her and said lightly: "You have shared one hundred and eight moves, I'm not wrong, right?"

Yu Meng knew that he would not be lazy, but he didn't want to make a sound, so he only nodded to Minghu at the bottom of the cliff. Chongxiao was secretly funny, he could see Yu Meng's head and neck slightly, knowing that although she was willing to gamble and lose, she refused to bow her head in front of him.

Chongxiao slowly stepped forward, and Yu Meng didn't wait for him to approach, so he already rushed to say: "Okay, I lost, what do you want me to do, just say it, the girl will never deny it!"

Chongxiao said: "We made a bet in the morning, but we didn't say that if you lose, you will do things for me." Yu Meng said proudly: "Even so, if you lose, you have to promise me one thing, how can I ask you for this advantage? Well, your martial arts are so good, it must not be rare for me to do anything for you, but, but we have a word first, and I will not be bad. ”

Chongxiao quietly looked at her side face, Yu Meng was a little feverish when he saw it, and said angrily: "Look, what to see, what to see?" Suddenly afraid that he would have bad intentions, his cheeks turned red, and he hurriedly took a few steps back, and said: "Say okay first, although I promise you, but you are not allowed to take advantage of me, and you want me to do something that I can't do!"

Chongxiao was almost amused by her, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, Chong will never ask you to do anything that can't be done, and this bet will only dispel your suspicions." Well, since you insist on doing something for me, help me sew this long shirt. The matter of female celebrity is indeed not my forte. Chongxiao said, took off his outer robe, and threw it to Yu Meng.

Yu Meng took it, and by the moonlight, he saw a crack in the cuffs. She knew that the female celebrity was not very good, and when she was about to refuse, she thought again: "Don't wait for him to regret it later, it's better to help him sew it." He nodded his head in agreement.

Chongxiao turned his head, looked into the distance, and said softly: "Girl, have you ever thought about why that kid's level has doubled in just a few hours?"

Yu Meng had thought about this question dozens of times in her mind, although she was angry, she was not a vulgar girl who only knew how to be angry. It's just that although she thinks about it, she has no clue, Mo Junyan is nothing more than Chongxiao taught a set of messy swordsmanship, and this swordsmanship, he actually didn't learn it at all.

Chongxiao frowned and didn't answer, and said, "You must be wondering why I taught him so strangely for a night, and it had great results." If I don't tell you, you must not be able to sleep well tonight, right?"

Yu Meng glanced at him, threw his robe to the edge of the cliff, and used it as a cushion, and sat down with his knees crossed. Chongxiao was angry and funny, knowing that she was angry and refused to admit it, she was silent at the moment and stopped talking.

After a tea time, Yu Meng couldn't bear it, knowing that he was not this person's opponent no matter how much he fought wits and strength, so he had to turn his head and say: "You know that I want to know, but you are beating around the bush, you have to bow my head." Hmph, how can a senior master bully me like this little woman?"

Chongxiao saw her anger fully revealed, and said, "Do you know what 'teaching according to aptitude' is?"

Yu Meng shook his head.

Chongxiao said: "It is mentioned in the Analects that Confucius had a student named Zilu, and one day he asked Confucius, 'Sir, if I hear the right idea, can I do it immediately?' Confucius said, 'I always have to ask my father and brother, how can I do it immediately?' After Zilu went out, another student, Ran You, also came to ask Confucius the same question, but Confucius replied: 'Yes, it should be done immediately.' ’”

Yu Meng listened and said strangely: "Hey, why is the answer to the same question so different?"

Chongxiao said: "Confucius's disciple Gong Xihua was on the side, saw the scene at that time, and asked the same question as you. Confucius replied: 'Ran has a humble personality and hesitates to do things, so he needs to be encouraged to be decisive. And Zilu is strong and competitive, and he is not good at handling things, so he should naturally be advised to listen to the opinions of others and think twice when he encounters problems. ”

After hearing this, Yu Meng said as if he had an understanding: "You mean that the method you taught Xiaojun is a way that suits his character, so that he can make progress in such a short period of time?"

"That's one of them. Your junior brother has a modest personality, lacks a ruthlessness, and what he has learned is not as pure as you, if you teach him one move and one style, one by one, how can he learn from you?" Chongxiao continued: "But this son is thoughtful and quite perceptive, so I only pass on his vague meaning, let him understand it on his own, but can have unexpected gains." ”

"It's like, if you have a good mind, if I teach you one move at a time, you will learn the form by imitating my moves. After that, in the process of continuous use, I slowly comprehended the essence of this trick. But this method is extremely rigid, and the tiger cannot be an anti-dog. Chongxiao paused and continued: "On the contrary, I taught that kid to tell him his meaning first, and as for his form, he simulated it himself. People who are good at thinking, their hearts are wandering, they don't like to be restrained, they are happy, and they are flowing water, which is the true meaning of learning. ”

Chongxiao saw that she didn't seem to understand, and said: "For example, to write poems and lyrics, you need to have a poetic eye, and the most wonderful thing is the finishing touch." The same is true of martial arts, the so-called moves are just forms, and the real essence lies in its sword intent. After reading 100 poems, one can make a few limerick poems, but if he can't express himself on his own, how can he become Li Bai Dufu? The people of the world are ridiculous, and they always think that if they are proficient in the sword moves handed down by their masters, they will naturally become masters. No matter how good the dead trick is, when it encounters a live trick, it is inevitable to tie your hands and feet and let others slaughter. Therefore, only by learning the sword intent thoroughly can you make the moves alive, and the sword intent moves will be lived, then your swordsmanship will also live. ”

When Yu Meng heard him say this, he didn't feel ashamed in his heart: "He was right, if I hadn't been stubborn about the tricks, I thought that Xiaojun's move 'Chu Yun Pinghai' must be false and then real, but he didn't, so he tied his hands and feet and missed the opportunity." Because he brought his sword to life, and I am still dead. Hum. ”

Chongxiao saw that she understood, and said: "Today, I only gave that kid a blank piece of paper and a brush, and asked him to draw a landscape and let him smear it at will." Although he handed over a good answer sheet, but in terms of real level, it is not enough to block your 100 moves, and the reason why I can win this time is because of you. ”

Yu Meng let out a "huh", and then slapped his head and said: "Oh, yes, I'm so stupid!" When I was competing with him, I kept counting one, two, and three moves in my heart, and all I was thinking about was how to defeat Xiao Jun within a hundred moves. ”

"Hmph, exactly. Chongxiao said.

Yu Meng glared at him and said, "You expected it, didn't you? I expected that I would be so stupid...... You, you bad guy!"

Chongxiao saw that she was angry and ashamed, and there was a slight flush on her pink cheeks, and she was stunned. Yu dreamed that he was staring blankly at him, and he felt embarrassed, so he turned his head again, and his arms were tightly clasped around his knees. Chongxiao came back to his senses, sighed and said, "Take advantage of this free time, how about I pass on to you a set of light body kung fu for the six masters of dream interpretation?"

"Liuyao interprets dreams? Could it be that you played that Tian Ergeng last night?"

"Heh, with your current skills, you can't learn that set of body methods. And first learn the method of interpreting dreams of the six lines, and then cooperate with the light skills of your Kunlun faction itself, it can be similar. ”

"Okay, then you teach me!" Yu Meng jumped up, she was tall, but Chongxiao was obviously taller, and she still stood up to his chest.

Chongxiao let go of her body, let her walk down the cliff, and said, "Do you know the direction of the sixty-four hexagrams of the 'I Ching'?"

Yu Meng shook his head and said, "I heard Xiaojun mention it, but I didn't pay attention to it. ”

"That's okay, you're talented, I'll mention it, you can learn by yourself. After Chongxiao finished speaking, he described the directions of the sixty-four hexagrams of the "Book of Changes" from "Mingyi", through "Ben", "Jiji", "Family", "Tongren", "Dayou", "Guimei", "Gu", "Tai", etc., and finally to "Wu Wu" one by one.

Yu Meng was praised by him, his heart was happy, and he listened carefully at the moment. I saw him say while floating in front of him and personally demonstrating the directions of the sixty-four hexagrams. Yu Meng pays attention everywhere, carefully studyes, she has a very good foundation, and she has a good memory, when Chongxiao finished the first time, she had already remembered six or seven percent. When Chongxiao walked for the second time, Yu Meng had already written down the details of when each step was longitudinal, when he jumped left and right, when he turned around out of thin air, and so on.

Chongxiao let Yu Meng try to go, Yu Meng walked again, since "Mingyi" stepped on "Gui Mei", turned around, and stepped on "Dayou", step "Tongren", her clothes were light, like a fluttering purple butterfly, although the footwork was slightly sluggish, but it has been the three flavors of the six Yao dreams.

Chongxiao nodded, indicating that it was good. Yu Meng said: "Every time these six dreams change, within three or five steps, they can return to the same place, but what is the reason?"

"Ancient book cloud: 'The king of the Fuxi clan is also in the world, looking up at the sky, looking down at the law on the ground, watching the birds and beasts and the land is appropriate, close to the body, far from all things, so he began to gossip. 'There is Tai Chi first, and after the yarrow is divided, it becomes the two lines of yin and yang, which are called two instruments. When the two are added together, there are four elephants. Add one to each of the four elephants, and it becomes gossip. After the gossip, it is divided into 64 hexagrams, such as 'Qian', 'Kun', 'Tun', and 'Meng'. This set of six hexagrams is created according to the direction of these sixty-four hexagrams. The sixty-four hexagrams come from Taiji, Taiji turns round, turns into eight trigrams, and the eight trigrams are combined, and they become Taiyi, which is where the method of this set of footwork lies. Chongxiao then explained what "Tai Chi Circle" is and how to "revert to Taiyi". Yu Meng listened to it, remembered it firmly, fit the steps, and benefited a lot.

The two of them teach and learn, and before they know it, they are already three watches.

Chongxiao saw that she basically knew it, so he said: "You have learned a rough idea of these six dream interpretations, and with daily practice and practice, you can learn my 'dream without trace'." In about three years, Tian Ergeng will never want to catch you again in his life. He paused, and then said, "It's getting late, let's go back to the house." Ming'er had to learn the sword intent of the nine factions from scratch and lay a good foundation. If you want to learn the general outline of the world's swordsmanship, you also need to start with the sword intent of these nine factions. ”

At this moment, Yu Meng was quite convinced of him, nodded, and the two returned to Xiaoxuan Pavilion together.

After breakfast the next day, the three of them arrived at the martial arts platform, and Chongxiao spent another three hours pointing out the sword intent of the nine factions from a little to a detailed one, at this time, not only Mo Junyan memorized it with his heart, but even Yu Meng did not dare to ignore it, just like Yang Muyun teaching. After the sword intent was finished, Chongxiao still started with the Shaolin school swordsmanship, and then talked about all the moves in the three sets of swordsmanship of Dharma, Arhat, and Fumo, as well as the way of using the sword intent swordsmanship. There are seventy-two ways of Dharma swordsmanship and Arhat swordsmanship, and there are thirty-six moves in the swordsmanship of the demons, and each move and each style of Chongxiao have been pointed out in detail, and said: "After the two of you have become more experienced, you can't help but have your own opinions, and then you don't need to stick to this, you can really use the sword intent, and it is the best swordsmanship." ”

Later, Wudang swordsmanship, Emei swordsmanship, Huashan swordsmanship, Diancang swordsmanship, Qingcheng swordsmanship, Jiuhua swordsmanship, Hengshan swordsmanship, etc., each taught several sets of the most exquisite sword moves to supplement the comprehension of its sword intent. In addition to learning the sword intent of the nine sects, Yu and Mo also learned thousands of subtle swordsmanship of various sects. Chongxiao also said: "In addition to these nine factions, the rest of the sects, such as Kongtong, Songshan, Huangshan, Thunder and other sects, also have some exquisite sword moves, but their sword intent is not out of these nine factions. If you have the heart, you can practice on your own at that time, and you don't need to explain more. ”

After Yu Meng and Mo Junyan listened, Chongxiao asked the two to practice separately, discussing and exchanging understandings together every evening. This teaching method is very different from Yang Muyun and others, the two of them were quite unaccustomed to it at the beginning, but they slowly got used to thinking alone, and they made significant progress. Yu Meng didn't like Qingcheng and Hengshan sword intent, while Mo Junyan had a shallow comprehension of the Shaolin and Diancang factions.

Yu and Mo practiced swords day by day, and realized a lot of superior martial arts principles, such as "sword intent for the body, swordsmanship for use", "body and use unity", "the sword does not move, the heart moves first", "the enemy machine first" and so on, not only the martial arts knowledge has reached a level, but also has insight into the scope of the world's swordsmanship and the changes in the mystery of the wonder, both of them can't help but rejoice and admire, and they can't help themselves.

Mo Junyan admired Chongxiao even more sincerely, and thought: "It is the same Kunlun swordsmanship, the same move, when Chong's predecessor used it, and when I used it, the power was very different. Even if I have learned tens of thousands of exquisite sword techniques, if there is no exquisite sword intent when I use it, it will be picturesque and godless, and no matter how subtle it is, it will be difficult to be a superior product. ”

When he taught me, he often said, 'Man is the heart of the sword, not the heart of the sword', 'The heart of the sword is always there, and the law is always there', 'How can a living person be as rigid as a dead person?' Well, yes, he must know that Xiaojun and I are still shallow in cultivation, and if he tells us this truth, he will mess around, especially me, hehe. If you can't follow the rules when practicing swords, it will be difficult to truly comprehend the avenue. When Xiaojun and I have a little success in swordsmanship in the future, he will explain it to us in detail. Hey, I think Master is underestimating us, and there is nothing wrong with having this weird person teach us first at this moment. Although she admired Chongxiao in her heart, she never showed it, and when she talked to him, she was still rude and casual, often angry and coquettish, and Chongxiao didn't care.

In the past half a month, the two of them have learned more and more, and the more they learn, the more they have learned, the more they feel that the sword intent of these nine factions has changed endlessly, and they don't know how much time it will take to explore all the mysteries.
