Chapter 3: Apprenticeship with Ji Ling
Yuan Yao looked at the burly man in front of him and smiled.
After expressing his desire to learn martial arts from Ji Ling to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu agreed on the spot out of love for Yuan Yao, although now Yuan Shu is about to set off for Sujube to participate in the princes' alliance, Ji Ling, as the first general under Yuan Shu, needs to deal with a lot of things, but Yuan Shu still arranged for Ji Ling to take half an hour every day to teach Yuan Yao to learn martial arts, as for those military affairs, they will be handled by the rest of the generals under Yuan Shu.
Ji Ling, as the number one general under Yuan Shu, is also a die-hard loyalist of Yuan Shu, and he also loves Yuan Yao, Yuan Shu's only son, and Ji Ling is also very happy after hearing that Yuan Yao plans to learn martial arts from him.
There are many generals under Yuan Shu, but Yuan Yao only named himself to learn martial arts, which shows that Yuan Yao values himself, and also shows that his status in Yuan Shu's eyes is not ordinary.
So although there have been a lot of things about Ji Ling in the past few days, Ji Ling still came to teach Yuan Yao to practice martial arts.
After coming to Yuan Yao, Ji Ling first circled around Yuan Yao a few times and took a good look at Yuan Yao's body.
Refining the body is not as good as cultivating the soul, although it does not require a certain amount of talent to get started like soul cultivation, it can be said that everyone can get started, but if you have mediocre qualifications, then you need to put in great effort if you want to cultivate to a high level. And if you have good qualifications, then in the cultivation process, you can get twice the result with half the effort, and it will be easier to cultivate to a high and profound realm.
After circling around Yuan Yao a few times, Ji Ling nodded secretly in his heart, this Yuan Yao's qualifications are good, although he is now twelve years old, but if he is strong-willed, he may not be able to cultivate to a high level in the future.
Unlike the high requirements for talent in soul cultivation, the body refining group actually pays more attention to the cultivator's own spiritual will, and in history, it is not a person who has no mediocre qualifications but has cultivated to the peak level with superhuman will.
Ji Ling stood in front of Yuan Yao and said, "Childe, are you determined to follow the last general to cultivate?" ”
"That's right!" Looking at Ji Ling, Yuan Yao nodded fiercely, indicating his attitude.
"Good!" Ji Ling nodded approvingly, and then said: "But Childe, what the last general cultivates is to refine the body, this cultivation is not comparable to soul cultivation, and he will suffer a lot, I wonder if Childe has ever been mentally prepared?" ”
Yuan Yao smiled and said, "General Ji, don't worry, I'm already ready." ”
Ji Ling said: "Okay, from today onwards, I will teach Gongzi to cultivate." ”
Yuan Yao immediately raised his head and stood in front of Ji Ling, full of energy, and asked, "General Ji, then how are we going to start cultivating, whether to practice boxing or to practice exercises." ”
Ji Ling said with a smile: "Childe, body refining is different from soul cultivation, what is needed for body refining is to exercise one's own body, and having majestic blood and qi can be to condense qi after cultivating qi strength, so the first thing to start with refining the body is not to practice exercises, but to exercise the body and boil the body, what Childe practiced before was soul cultivation, although the body is not weak, but it still needs to be exercised, so now what Childe has to do is to start boiling his body and let himself have stronger strength, When it's almost time, I'll start teaching Childe how to cultivate energy, so now Childe will run around Luyang City! ”
"Run?" Yuan Yao's face couldn't help but flash with disappointment when he heard this, he thought that he could learn the three-pointed two-edged knife from Ji Ling as soon as he came.
chose to learn from Ji Ling, and Yuan Yao also had a trace of expectation in his heart. The weapon used by Ji Ling was a three-pointed two-edged knife, and in Yuan Yao's era, there were many heroes and heroes, and there were countless capable generals and fierce generals. Lu Bu who used a halberd, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, and Huang Zhong who used a knife, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Sun Ce who used a gun, and Zhang Fei who used a spear, Yuan Yao didn't think that he could compare to these people with common weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and halberds, so Yuan Yao planned to learn a three-pointed two-edged knife from Ji Ling.
In Yuan Yao's memory, Ji Ling's three-pointed and two-edged knife was also a rare weapon in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, and the only user remembered by Yuan Yao was Ji Ling. This is also an important reason why Yuan Yao wants to learn martial arts from Ji Ling.
But now hearing that Ji Ling did not teach him the use of the three-pointed and two-edged knife, but wanted to let himself run, Yuan Yao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
It turned out that after receiving the memories of the genuine Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao thought that since there was a cultivation system in this world, then cultivation should be as he imagined in his previous life, sitting every day and starting to meditate, practicing all kinds of magical exercises, and then having the ability to call for wind and rain, open mountains and break rivers.
But now that he heard that Ji Ling actually wanted to run by himself, Yuan Yao's originally high interest immediately dropped, he didn't expect that the first thing he did after changing his cultivation body was actually running.
When Ji Ling saw Yuan Yao's appearance, he immediately put on a straight face, and his voice was a little stern: "What, Childe, do you have any opinion on the arrangement of the last general?" ”
"Got it, master!"
Yuan Yao saw that Ji Ling seemed to be angry, and his face suddenly turned grim, and then he started running according to Ji Ling's instructions.
Now the place where Yuan Yao and Ji Ling are is not inside Luyang City, but outside Luyang City, Ji Ling's request to Yuan Yao is to let Yuan Yao run around Luyang City.
Seeing that Yuan Yao's figure was getting farther and farther away from him, Ji Ling didn't seem to notice it, and muttered, "Master? I didn't expect Childe to want to apprentice to me? ”
The title of master is not shouted at will, as the so-called one day as a teacher, life as a father, although Yuan Yao learned martial arts from Ji Ling, but he does not have to worship Ji Ling as a teacher, once Yuan Yao worships Ji Ling as a teacher, this relationship is not arbitrary and can be dissolved.
However, since Yuan Yao was determined to learn the three-pointed and two-edged sword from Ji Ling, he naturally wanted to deepen the relationship between himself and Ji Ling, and apprenticeship was a good means. Now Yuan Yao is already imagining that after he has achieved cultivation, he will hold a three-pointed two-edged knife and compete with those famous generals in the world.
But at the beginning, Yuan Yao still had time to think about these things, although Luyang County was not big, but it was not small, and Yuan Yao was tired in the back, and there was no extra thought at all.
Ji Ling kept staring at Yuan Yao until Yuan Yao couldn't run anymore before sending Yuan Yao back to Luyang City.
And Yuan Shu was also very happy after learning what Yuan Yao called Ji Ling, one was the first general under him, and the other was his only son, Yuan Shu, who became a master and apprentice, was very happy to see it.
On the second day, Yuan Shu held an apprenticeship ceremony for Yuan Yao and Ji Ling, and Yuan Yao presented an apprenticeship ceremony to Ji Ling, representing Ji Ling's official acceptance of Yuan Yao as an apprentice.
