"Isn't it really good?!"

Tie Jun's eyes lit up, in the end, he was still a young man, and he couldn't stand the praise, Ming Jian looked at Tie Jun's expectant eyes, and continued to nod.

"It's really good, it seems that you really don't have any talent for practicing swords, and you don't have any foundation in swordsmanship, turning to sword practice shouldn't have any impact, not bad, not bad!"

Tie Jun choked there in one breath, his face flushed.

"The sword technique is the heaviest momentum, there is a tiger among your five tiger broken door knives, and the momentum is even more strict, you have no momentum except for the right moves, but you haven't really gone into battle against the enemy, otherwise, I'm afraid you've been hacked to death by now!"

Tie Jun smiled, and the iron gall standing at the gate of the courtyard was also dull for a while.

"The sword technique is heavy, the sword technique is heavy, you have to remember this clearly!" Ming Jian said quietly, took the long knife in Tie Jun's hand, and threw it aside, "Our swordsmanship is particularly important, you must experience it carefully when you cultivate!" ”

"Yes!"

"Sit down, I'll explain some cultivation matters to you!"

When the iron gall at the gate of the courtyard heard this, he bowed slightly to Ming Jian, turned around and left, leaving only Ming Jian and Tie Jun in this courtyard.

"Zhilu said, why do I want to help you fight for the position of county lieutenant?"

The two sat down on the stone bench, and Ming Jian did not talk about martial arts, but talked about his appointment as a county lieutenant, which surprised Tie Jun.

"It turned out that the master came forward, no wonder there was such a sudden appointment!" Tie Jun showed a knowing expression, which was also something he had been wondering about, although this time he had made a great contribution, but this merit was not so great that the imperial court would give him an official position.

Datang has always been very cautious about the control of official positions, and every official position is an extremely scarce resource, so it is impossible for him to take his turn.

It turned out that he was secretly exerting his strength, no wonder.

"Is there anything special about this official position?"

"Of course, you haven't heard of a sentence that is good for cultivation among the six doors?!"

"I've heard of it, but I don't understand it!"

"The six doors are just an institution of the imperial court, but in the eyes of the practitioners, it can represent the entire imperial court, and the cultivation is about the wealth of the couple's law, which is not easy for the practitioners, especially the lone practitioner, the wealth may be easy to get, but it is all floating wealth, useless in cultivation, couples, it is even more difficult, take you as an example, the practice is the family heirloom exercises, self-cherishing, will not be cultivated with others at all, and naturally there is no mutual learning and improvement, law, even more so, what you practice is only Shaoyang Qigong and the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife, want, It is very difficult to attain a higher and deeper Dharma as it is to ascend to heaven and earth, and apart from here, it is very difficult for you to find a place that is truly suitable for cultivation, and these are not lacking in the six gates! ”

"But I didn't join the Six Gates, I'm now the county lieutenant!"

"Do you think that the county lieutenant belongs to the three law divisions, which is the so-called three lieutenants, by the way, no one told you? You should visit your immediate supervisor within three days of taking office. ”

Tie Jun looked at Ming Jian with some doubts, he didn't expect that Ming Jian would tell him this.

"Don't be surprised, what do you think cultivation is, get a few secret books, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, eat a few fairy fruits, and suddenly become a super master, become an immortal and an ancestor, young man, this is not 10,000 years ago, 10,000 years ago there was still this possibility, now, hehe, you are really so naïve!"

"I thought ......"

"What do you think doesn't matter, what matters is what you can do, insight into the world, understanding people's hearts is the most important practice, sword movement is the most important sword intent, what is sword intent, this is not imaginary, you need to have experience, you need to experience, otherwise, everything is in the air."

"In other words, this is also a kind of cultivation?!"

"Yes, this is also a kind of cultivation, but this kind of cultivation should not be deliberate, otherwise it will backfire!"

A smile flashed in Ming Jian's eyes, "However, now with your level, it's a bit early to tell you this, if you want to comprehend the mystery of meaning, it will take at least ten years of work, before that, all you need is to cultivate step by step, now, forget what I just told you, let me ask you, what do you think is the most important thing to cultivate?" ”

"The most important?" Tie Jun groaned slightly, raised his head and said, "It should be the strength of the force, right?" ”

"Yes, it's the amount of strength!" Tie Jun's answer made Ming Jian feel a little surprised, "Cultivation, in the final analysis, is two words, one is force, the other is skill, and force is the most fundamental, the biggest role of qigong is to improve our strength, therefore, the stronger the qigong that can help us improve the strength of qigong, the greater the value!" ”

"What about longevity?"

"Prolong life, become an immortal and be an ancestor, that is the ultimate goal, there is no strength as a premise, everything is virtual, even if you can live with heaven and earth, there is not enough strength to protect yourself in the end it is the life of the corpse on the street, if you want to prolong life, if you want to live forever, you have to fight, and the sky and the earth and the people, why fight, 10,000 years ago, mainly by force, and in the past 10,000 years, skill has also become an extremely important factor."

"Skill and strength?"

"Yes, skill, refers to martial arts skills, in the past 10,000 years, martial arts skills have developed greatly, although the strength is still fundamental, but in many cases, the skills are extremely important, even more than the strength of the force."

When Ming Jian said this, his face showed a look of pride, "Unlike 10,000 years ago, since skills became more and more important, knives and swords have become the most popular weapons, and most of the warriors and qi refiners in the world also use these two weapons to protect themselves, of course, in the army, they are still dominated by long weapons." ”

"Master, you are a swordsman!" Tie Jun smiled, "But I've never seen your swordsmanship, I've only seen your flying sword." ”

"Flying sword is also a skill, a more clever skill, but it is not complicated, provided that you have enough control!" Ming Jian looked at Tie Jun, who was eager to try, and poured cold water on him, "But this is not a problem you should consider now, Shaoyang Qigong has given you a good foundation, this is a good qigong, so don't stop, in addition, in addition, in addition, you have to specialize in another qigong, tidal qigong." ”

"Tidal Qigong?"

"Yes, that is, the qigong I practice, is the qigong of my master, since you are my apprentice, I naturally want to teach you this qigong, Shaoyang Qigong collects the power of heaven and earth and Shaoyang, generally cultivated at midday and noon, and the power of the tide absorbs the power of the tide between heaven and earth, the best cultivation in unitary time, the two are not in conflict, I suggest that you start practicing every day, and use an hour to evolve your Shaoyang Qi into tidal qi, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort!"

"Disciple understands!"

Tidal Qigong is Ming Jian's major qigong, and it is also the secret of his master, according to him, now his master even has three Tie Jun who has just started, in addition to this new master and apprentice, there is also his senior brother, who has not shown up for nearly sixty years, listening to his tone, Tie Jun knows that his master prefers the life of hidden cultivation, and he takes the path of a qi refiner, and he doesn't know whether Lu Dao is dead or alive now.

Ming Jian did not hide his secrets, and it took half an hour to pass on a complete set of tidal qigong to Tie Jun, and it took another three full hours to explain, until it was dark, and he finished explaining some of the details and skills in the entire exercise.

"No matter what you practice, qigong is the fundamental way, many people will also practice a basic exercise similar to Shaoyang qigong, because after the transformation of this exercise, it is equivalent to practicing twice as much time every day, but there are not many people who can really persevere to the end, four hours a day of qi refining and meditating, is a very boring thing, some people can't even sit down at the most basic, let alone two more hours a day, cultivation is like this, not as beautiful as you think, This is also the reason why many people will choose shortcuts and eventually fall into the devil's path, and I don't want you to be one of them! “”

"I won't!"

"A lot of people said that when they were as young as you, so I won't believe it either!" Ming Jian waved his hand, "Don't worry, if there is such a day, I will definitely kill you first, so as not to embarrass me!" ”

Tie Jun smiled and didn't answer.

On the second day, after going to the Weifu, he set off to Dengzhou Mansion to meet his immediate boss, Jiang Kun, the training envoy of the Dengzhou regiment.

Tanglin is one of the sixteen counties under the jurisdiction of Dengzhou Prefecture and one of the five lower counties, which is basically in an extremely remote place.

It is precisely because of the remoteness, therefore, from Tanglin County to Dengzhou Mansion even if it takes three days to ride a horse, Tie Jun has no horse, and will not ride a horse, only a donkey, or their family grinding, naturally can not ride out of the road, so I found the only car and horse shop in Tanglin County, just a batch of goods to be transported to Dengzhou Mansion, so I went on the road with Tie Jun, but in this way, back and forth, it takes at least ten days, in desperation, Tie Jun had to tell the county order for ten days off, anyway, he is also a forced official, The county order also waved a big pen and approved the fake.

From Tanglin to Dengzhou Mansion, half of the road is a mountain road, and the other half is a half-disabled official road.

When he was about to reach the end of the official road, the old porter of the carriage and horse shop ran over.

"Lord County Lieutenant, there is Niujiaozi Mountain in front of you, and the road may be a little bumpy."

"I'm going into the mountains!" Tie Jun pulled the curtain and looked up, but saw that the official road in front of him had been blocked by a big mountain, this big mountain, when it was in Tanglin County, could also be seen from afar, because there are two big peaks in the mountain, one south and one north, inclined to both sides, just like a pair of horns, so the locals call this mountain Niujiaozi Mountain.
