Chapter 86: The Sword of Great Ingenuity

Although it felt very subtle because of Zhou Yan's movements, especially remembering the rumors about a certain doctor that he had heard before, Rudy was even more nervous.

However, under Zhou Yan's strict expression, Rudy still put aside his distracting thoughts, nodded with a stricter expression, and didn't dare to think about it anymore, and at the same time closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

Moreover, he will soon no longer be able to have extra thoughts to generate distractions. Although Zhou Yan said it, it was just a little painful, but ......

Well, it's not actually a little painful, it's very painful, it's a severe pain. At least Rudy had already let out a miserable howl in the next moment, and the only thing worthy of praise was that he still remembered Zhou Yan's words in pain and endured it desperately.

Rudy only felt now that something was pouring into his body frantically from the hand that Zhou Yan had attached to his heart. The energy roamed through him violently and brutally, bringing with him a tearing sensation that made him feel like his body was about to be torn apart.

By the time the qiē was over, Rudy was already sweating profusely from the severe pain, and he was even soaked with sweat. And Zhou Yan also withdrew his hand at this time.

"It's not bad, the strength of your meridians exceeds my expectations." Zhou Yan nodded and gave approval.

What he did just now was to use his true qi to explore the strength of Rudy's meridians. It's not as easy as it is in a story or a novel, at least not for the bearer. Especially someone like Rudy who had never developed a meridian before.

If Zhou Yan wants to explore the Rudi meridians, he must transport his true qi to the past, and the reason why he chose the location of the heart is because the meridians are generally associated with blood vessels, and it is relatively easy to enter from the heart. And this process is actually very rough, that is, simply letting one's true qi forcibly pass through the other party's meridians.

However, although Zhou Yan's true qi swam around Rudy's body, it did not help him develop his meridians, and the practice of forcibly passing through the other party's body only briefly stretched the other party's meridians but did not maintain them. So as a result, there was nothing else except Zhou Yan knowing the strength of Rudy's meridians and the feeling of leaving Rudy with severe pain.

As for Zhou Yan's deception that Rudy was not painful, he let Rudy enjoy a full-body baptism. The reason is that in Zhou Yan's cognition, only Zhou Yan knows whether Rudy has been showing affection in front of him and taking revenge, or whether Rudy has a strange association with him just now and retaliates.

"Meridians?" For this novel term, Rudy expressed doubts and curiosity. However, because the pain was still a little remnant, he spoke with a sense of powerlessness.

"In short, it's something that bears the gas." Speaking of this, Zhou Yan remembered that although Rudy's figure was the same as he imagined, if he looked closely, his body shape and characteristics were closer to the Westerners of the original world.

And since the original world has true qi and storage zài, there is naturally a vindictive energy to save zài. And unlike True Qi, which is extracted through guò and removes dross and only leaves the essence, Dou Qi completely rudely smashes the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth into the body. And this practice can only be used by Westerners who are born with a stronger constitution than the Easterners.

And to cultivate True Qi, Rudy is actually past the best age. However, Dou Qi, something with a smaller age restriction should be very suitable for him, after all, the heavy sword sword technique that Zhou Yan knows ultimately needs is qi, which is a sword technique that can achieve the best effect with qi and sword.

"Master?" Seeing that Zhou Yan had been pinching his chin and thinking about something, and his brows were furrowing deeper and deeper, Rudy couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Huh? What the? ”

"Well, is my talent too poor?" Rudy grimaced: "Or should I give up the epee?" ”

"No, don't give up. Well, anyway, I'll teach you some basic things first, and let's start with the most basic things today. Zhou Yan nodded, and then pointed to the heavy sword on the ground: "Pick it up first, follow me." ”

Next, Zhou Yan taught Rudy the most basic movements in swordsmanship: stabbing, slashing, splitting, and flirting.

And Rudy, although he imitated Zhou Yan's movements very seriously, in fact, there was no need to imitate them, these basic movements had already been practiced in the training of the guards.

However, after Rudy finished a set of actions, Zhou Yan pointed out many problems in details. This is also the difference between a martial arts master and an ordinary person. The same action looks the same, but there are many differences in the details. To the uninitiated, it may seem that Rudy has imitated it decently, but in Zhou Yan's opinion, it is full of flaws and loopholes.

And after that, Zhou Yan has been correcting the details of Rudy's actions.

"Master, Master...... But, is it okay? After more than twenty such repetitions, Rudy put down his heavy sword in his hand, panting.

He could already feel his arm go sore. After all, this is a heavy sword, and just swinging it continuously is enough to consume energy, not to mention that he is now being corrected by Zhou Yan, and concentrating on practicing a certain movement is more laborious than simply swinging the sword.

"Pretty much."

When he heard Zhou Yan's words, Lu Di was about to let go of the heavy sword in his hand, but Zhou Yan continued: "Then follow the feeling just now, continue to practice." ”

Although Zhou Yan said it with a smile, Rudy felt that if he didn't do this, Zhou Yan would probably leave immediately, and of course he would lose his qualification to continue studying.

Gritting his teeth, Rudy began to repeat the four basic movements that Zhou Yan had demonstrated and corrected him: stabbing, slashing, splitting, and teasing.

Time passed like this, and when Rudy's heavy sword finally fell to the ground because the exhaustion of ** overwhelmed the insistence of the spiritual will, it was already noon. And his arm was almost swollen, and he was even shaking incessantly.

At this moment, Rudy was as if he had just been fished out of the pool, and his whole body was wet, which was the sweat left over from the practice.

And after the heavy sword was taken off, he just bent down, and when he wanted to pick up the heavy sword again, Zhou Yan stopped him: "Okay, that's it for today." Well done and commendable. ”

For Zhou Yan's praise, Rudy was a little helpless.

"Do you need me to send you back?" Zhou Yan seemed to be in a good mood, still with a smile on his face.

"No...... Call...... No need......" Wheezing Rudy shook his head, gritted his teeth, bent down and grabbed the heavy sword on the ground.

However, as soon as he lifted the end of the hilt, his hand began to tremble violently.

"I'll do it anyway." Zhou Yan smiled, picked up the heavy sword and carried it on his shoulder, and said, "Let's go, that's the end of today." What you need now is rest and swelling your hands. ”

"I, I can still ......" However, as if he had misunderstood what Zhou Yan meant, Rudy gritted his teeth and wanted to argue about something.

"So, you need to rest. I don't want you to die of exhaustion here. Zhou Yan shook his head.

It's just that Rudy seems to be still insisting, and Zhou Yan is helpless and asks, "What do you want to say?" ”

"I'm ......" Rudy hesitated, struggle on his face. But in the end, he gritted his teeth: "Master, I, I want to learn powerful swordsmanship, not ......"

He didn't finish speaking, but Zhou Yan still understood what he meant. However, Zhou Yan didn't feel the slightest dissatisfaction with this, smiled and didn't blame Rudy for being anxious, and said, "Do you think these four basic actions are useless?" ”

Rudy didn't answer, but from his expression, Zhou Yan understood what he meant, so Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "To put it mildly, every qiē movement of the sword technique is the evolution, connection and change of these four basic movements. Moreover, there are too many flaws in your previous movements, and if you don't grasp the details well, it will have a bad impact on learning advanced swordsmanship in the future. ”

After a pause, Zhou Yan said again: "So maybe you think I'm using a big reason to trick you......"

"No, how dare I ......" Rudy immediately denied it, but in fact, Zhou Yan was not wrong, he did think so.

"Well, I don't mean anything else." Zhou Yan waved his hand to signal Rudy to calm down: "Then let's talk about it smaller, if you want to learn the swordsmanship of heavy sword, the body is very important, and it is also to exercise your body in practice." Moreover, you shouldn't have a vindictiveness yet, right? ”

This time, Rudy was silent. Zhou Yan didn't guess wrong, in fact, he was just an ordinary person, where did he have the opportunity to learn vindictiveness?

"Although my method is very rough, it is very simple. It's just squeezing every bit of your potential and forcing you to be vindictive. Zhou Yan shook his head and said his purpose.

"Master, I've rested enough, give me the sword."

"But...... Your hands ......"

"It's okay, Master!"

Seeing that Rudy was so persistent, Zhou Yan didn't say anything more and returned the heavy sword to Rudy. And when the heavy sword was in his hands, although Rudy's hand sank, he did not let the sword fall to the ground.

"Alright, let's go back then." Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, even though at first he had never admitted that he wanted to be Rudy's master. But now it looks like a bit of a master.

When Rudy heard this, he dragged his heavy sword and walked towards the city. However, when Rudy took a step, Zhou Yan did not make a hurry.

Looking at Rudy's back, Zhou Yan shook his head: "Although my heart is much firmer than I imagined, it seems that patience is not enough." ”

"And, just teaching basic movements, does it feel like I'm perfunctory?" Zhou Yan muttered to himself, but laughed to himself.

Now that you have chosen epee, do you still want to dance the exquisite swordsmanship? That's putting the cart before the horse. Moreover, regarding the heavy sword swordsmanship, only the basic stabbing and slashing four movements are enough.

If you want to ask why......

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan couldn't help but whisper to himself the eight-character comment of his predecessors on that swordsmanship: "The heavy sword has no edge, and it is not skillful." ”

Sighing and shaking his head, he waved the thoughts in his mind, and stepped to catch up with the apprentice who pretended to be resolute, and seeing the other party clenching the heavy sword harder, Zhou Yan just waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't look at me like that, I won't rob you." Let's go, go back. At least let me send you home, no matter what, you call me Master, don't you? ”

As he spoke, he smiled and patted Rudy's shoulder, but he almost slapped the apprentice to the ground. It's not that Zhou Yan is too hard or Rudy's body is too weak. It's just that Rudy has no strength now, and this half-day practice has made him really close to collapse.

As for Zhou Yan's action of patting his shoulder, is it approving or full of malice? God knows.
