Chapter 5 Teaching and leaving
When Xiao Yi came to Mr. Song's room that night, Mr. Song was standing by the window, the night outside the window was blurry, and the frogs in the distance were chirping without a sound, breaking the silence of the night.
Hearing Xiao Yi knocking on the door, Mr. Song asked Xiao Yi to enter the door, sat at the table, and asked Xiao Yi to sit down as well. Said with a smile:
"You're here, come and sit down, and I'll explain something to you for the teacher!"
"Yes." Xiao Yi said busily.
"I take you as an apprentice, but because of some things, I can't take you with me, I will stay here for a month to teach you advanced martial arts, but I can't teach you personally. I have been wandering in the rivers and lakes all my life, and I have several powerful enemies, although I am not afraid, once they find out that you are learning my martial arts, I am afraid that my life will be in danger. Therefore, if you do not achieve my goal, then you will not be allowed to set foot in this radius for the rest of your life. If you can do it, I will pass on your exercises. ”
"Master, I must remember your teachings today, and always work hard to live up to the prestige of my master." He immediately knelt down and kowtowed nine times.
"Hehe, good! But now there are few people in the rivers and lakes who remember me Song Wuji, and there is still some prestige there. ”
Xiao Yi looked at the master with some doubts, unable to figure out the meaning of the master's words.
"Hey, the teacher was originally a private school teacher, inadvertently got a martial arts method, since then set foot in the rivers and lakes, at the age of forty into the innate realm, and then twenty years to find the mainland master in order to break through, at the age of 60 to achieve congenital perfection, after thirty years without an inch, now it is a full ninety. It's a pity that there is no hope for a breakthrough, and I don't know how many years I can survive. The words were full of melancholy, and there was no calmness in his eyes, only endless vicissitudes.
Xiao Yi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the master in disbelief.
Song Wujian said: "Don't be surprised, martial arts breaking through the innate realm can nourish the body with innate true qi and make the appearance ageless." ”
In the following month, Song Wuqian stayed here, explained some martial arts knowledge to Xiao Yi, and passed down an internal martial arts method and a sword technique. This mental method is Song Wujian combined with several kinds of mystical martial arts in the world, and created a flawless mental method under the integration of the sword, and the sword technique is called the sword technique of asking the heart, which is also extremely clever.
After a month, Song Wujian drifted away, Xiao Yi sat in Song Wuji's room, looked at the books on the table, and carefully recalled Song Wuji's words, for fear that he would forget them for a long time.
Xiao Yi recalled the master's advice before leaving.
"You have to keep the following words in mind, otherwise in the future, you will not be able to advance an inch of martial arts for life, and you will die at worst. The name of the Perfection Mind I have created is Perfection, but there is nothing perfect in the world, it is just a lifelong pursuit of the teacher, so when I practice in the future, I don't have to stick to the form, I can create my own style, only in this way can I make a breakthrough. ”
"This sword recipe, the sword refers to the heart, the sword, the king of the soldiers, this king refers to the king, there is a domineering spirit that looks down on the world, a sword in hand, the world can go. It is a gentleman again, a gentleman does something and does nothing, and follows his heart. Therefore, you must not act against your heart in your life, otherwise you will leave a knot in your heart, and it will be difficult to make progress in your life. Your name is Yi Cheng, and Yi Anguo, the general of the previous dynasty, should be your father, so it is not an exaggeration for you to say to the king of Qi that you have a grudge against your father, but the eldest husband is not in a hurry to act for a while, and he can't just think twice about doing things quickly. Walking in the rivers and lakes must not be sharp, there are no absolutes in the world, and leave a way back for yourself at any time. ”
"Disciple remember the master's teachings." Xiao Yi's face was shocked, how did Master Xindao know that my father was Yi Anguo? It must be that when I talk about King Qi on weekdays, I have a murderous intention in my heart, and I was investigated by the master.
"This Qingfeng sword was obtained in my early years, and it is useless to me after entering the innate level, so I will leave it to you for self-defense. If you want to go to the outside world to break through, then practice hard, and when you can defeat Zhang Meng, you can go out. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yi was not very panicked in his heart, and learned from the narration in the past few days that the strength and weakness in the rivers and lakes are divided into seven levels, martial apprentices, martial artists, samurai, martial masters, martial artists, martial arts, martial kings, martial gods, the first four orders are the introductory exercises of muscles and bones, which is the stage of laying the foundation, and most of the enemies rely on fists and swords; The fifth and sixth orders are called acquired masters, which can leak internal force and melt into the fists and feet, and the power is endless; Martial God is the title of stepping into the innate realm, they have been able to turn internal force into substance, no need for a sword, within a hundred steps can take the head of a person. The three low levels of the entry level can challenge the masters of the upper level, but it is difficult for ten martial artists to defeat one martial sect, and when it comes to the realm of martial gods, it is no longer the number that can make up for it. The master said that Zhang Meng was just a martial artist cultivator, and if a martial artist wanted to be promoted to a martial arts sect, he was basically one out of a hundred, and Zhang Meng was by no means the "one".
Xiao Yi hurriedly thanked the master and took the Qingfeng sword, but after looking carefully, he was a little disappointed, not like the dazzling magic weapons worn by heroes and heroes in the stories of the rivers and lakes told by the master, only a slightly quaint scabbard, and there was no decoration around the body, which made people really unable to associate it with the sword, and it looked similar to the sword that the blacksmith in the town fought last week.
Seeing Xiao Yi like this, Song Wujian still didn't know what he was thinking, and said: "Don't be blinded by appearances, flashy things often harm countless people, low-key is the king." ”
Xiao Yi heard this, and hurriedly admitted his mistake, thinking that the master was a dignified and innate master, how could there be a mortal product in his hand, and he couldn't help but draw his sword out of the sheath, but he could hear it
"Dangchang"
A crunch,
I saw a flash of light, and the Qingfeng Sword in his hand flashed with a faint cold light, making people dare not look directly.
Xiao Yi was overjoyed in his heart, what the secret master said was really right, good-looking things are often not practical, so it's better to keep a low profile.
At this time, I heard the master say: "Don't make such a big movement when you draw your sword, and don't make it known to everyone if you can kill the enemy quietly when you are facing the enemy." ”
Xiao Yi sweated on his head, thinking why he hadn't found out that the master would have these thoughts before, so he said, "Didn't the master say that the sword should be directed at the heart?" If you attack the enemy, isn't it not above board? ”
Song Wujian said with a smile: "It's good that you can think like this, it means that you have begun to comprehend the way of the Conscience Sword, but you have to remember that the enemy is the enemy, it doesn't matter what means you use, it is okay to kill the enemy, only the real opponent is worthy of letting you draw the sword openly." You will understand this later, the rivers and lakes are far more sinister and dirty than you think. ”
After thinking for a while, Song Wujian took out a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wings, which was full of golden seals and more than a thousand words.
Solemnly said to Xiao Yi: "This is a mantra that I got unintentionally, it is wonderful, and it depends on this for the teacher to reach today's state, you can memorize it, and carefully refer to it in the future, as for how to practice, the teacher also knows nothing, so you have to explore it yourself." This thing can't be left to you, otherwise it will leave you with a killing disaster, just write it down. ”
Xiao Yi saw that what the master said was solemn, so he also put away his thoughts and memorized it carefully. This sentence is very tongue-twisting, Xiao Yi had never heard of it before, and it took him two hours to write it down with his intelligence, and Song Wujian made sure that Xiao Yi memorized it word for word before accepting the paper.
Then, with a wave of his hand, dozens of books appeared on the table. This time Xiao Yi was completely stunned, he couldn't figure out how the master had conjured these books out of his head, thinking that he was dazzled, and rubbed his eyes vigorously, but he still couldn't see why.
Song Wujian smiled and didn't explain, and said: "The magic of this world is not at all what you can imagine, when you reach a certain realm in the future, you will be clear, don't tell anyone what you see today, otherwise it will bring you a catastrophe." ”
Xiao Yi bowed down and agreed.
Song Wujian also explained to Xiao Yi: "Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, only by feeling it yourself can you have a deeper understanding." Ten years later, when you come to Qiyun City, the capital of Qi Kingdom, Qiqiao Pavilion, someone will bring you to see me. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Yi to say more, he floated away.
Seeing that the master had left, Xiao Yi looked through the books on the table, which included not only the mainland style, but also strange things and strange news, as well as the change of dynasties of various generations, miscellaneous essays, biographies, astrological doctors, pianos, chess, calligraphy and paintings, flowers, birds, insects and fish, birds and beasts, all kinds of dabbling, and he was overjoyed at the moment.
After this day, Xiao Yi looked for the shopkeeper and briefly talked about the apprenticeship, and the shopkeeper was also very happy to see that Xiao Yi had learned real skills, and he didn't let him help in the store.
So every day, Xiaoyi reads and learns martial arts, and he is very busy.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper also gave up his mind to let him run the hotel again, and after a few months, he took the store out of the house, only found a clean courtyard in the east of the town, and lived with Xiaoyi.
basking in the sun in the small courtyard every day, going to the teahouse to listen to the commentary, the life is quite leisurely.
He no longer runs a hotel, but he doesn't have to worry about money, and he has some savings after running a hotel for decades.
Yi Cheng got a lot of silver from Wei Wuming last time, but it made Xiao Yi happy, thinking that he had worked hard for a few years to save 50 taels of silver, and he got so much at once.
In the past, I didn't save money to marry a daughter-in-law, but I wanted to save enough money one day to go out to find my younger brothers and sisters, which could be regarded as fulfilling my mother's last wish. Whenever I think of this, all the things of the day come to mind, drowning out the little joy, and I work harder to cultivate.
A word to readers:
Keep up the good work!
