Dragon Slayer.

Memories swept through Wang Yu's consciousness like a tide......

Then, it slowly disappeared into Wang Yu's consciousness like a low tide......

The torrent of time continued to wash over Wang Yu's consciousness, making the memories in his consciousness continue to surge in his mind like waves, and then finally disappear completely......

In fact, when Wang Yu formulated the previous strategy, if he directly implemented his plan, he could actually completely avoid this loss of memory, but at this moment, he already vaguely understood......

The erosion of time may be irreparable damage to others, but for yourself, it is the best cleansing for your own heart......

Only by making one's heart completely empty can one maximize one's strength!

This is actually like the so-called innate realm in many martial arts novels......

In fact, the so-called innate is a purely natural state, in the eyes of the warrior, when a person is just born, it is actually such a congenital state, but with growth, the body will be affected by various reasons for various reasons, so that the original innate qi in the body escapes, and turns into an acquired turbidity, which makes it more susceptible to disease and aging......

This process is almost irreversible, and for martial artists, if they can return to the innate realm, then it means that their bodies can recover to the maximum extent to a state that is almost perfect and transparent like a newborn baby, and the energy between heaven and earth can naturally be obtained between breaths. So as to achieve a state of endless internal strength. And that's not all. Martial artists who have reached this realm are often close to a state of unity between heaven and man in terms of strength, which is also a realm that only the top masters can achieve in many martial arts novels......

In fact, the way of learning martial arts itself is a process from simple to complex, and finally back to simple. A little bit to make their moves become numerous, making it irresistible, and when the realm reaches a certain height, it will return to a state of simplification, which is to have comprehended the true meaning of martial arts, so as to let yourself reach a state where no tricks are better than tricks, and after reaching no moves, the next is a cyclical state from scratch, from the original to a clear understanding of a qiē move, on this basis. The tricks that come out of the creation zào have actually surpassed the concept of tricks in the conventional sense. It has reached a point where it is truly something out of nothing!

Just like the martial arts used by martial artists in many martial arts novels at their peak, they have often reached a level of transcendent sanctification, or even indescribable, which is actually a typical move made out of nothing!

In fact, not only in martial arts, but in many fields, if people really reach a certain height, their abilities will often reach a point of returning to the basics!

Just like a clever chef, he doesn't need to do a big dish, just a pot of egg fried rice, which is enough to show his clever cooking skills, egg fried rice is not very difficult in itself, almost many people will do it, and the taste will not be too unpalatable, but precisely because of this, it is very difficult to do it well, only a really smart chef can make this ordinary dish into a delicacy in the real sense......

In the same way, for example, those masters who are good at painting, when they reach a certain height, sometimes, even a few brushstrokes are enough to show their extremely good painting skills, and like many beginners, they are often always keen to challenge some relatively complex layouts......

In essence, returning to the basics is itself a manifestation of the power of rules, in any field, as long as the understanding of this field reaches a certain height, then the next must be able to find a simple and clear path from the original chaotic order, the real sense of the grandmaster, always able to complete their own creations with weight......

Just like in the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon, even if Qiao Feng uses Taizu's long fist, he can still beat the heroes, this is a kind of crushing in the realm, and the martial artists who have reached such a realm, what kind of martial arts they use, what kind of weapons they use, in fact, is not very important......

In fact, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than a pure word!

No matter what kind of things are in what kind of field, if they can be truly pure, then many things will often be much simpler than imagined!

No matter how many and complex martial arts are, they actually have no meaning, because there is only one kind that can be used in battle......

Purely in terms of qualifications, there is not much difference between Yang Guo and Huang Rong, the martial arts mastered by these two are actually not too much, they are basically top-notch masters, such as finger snapping supernatural powers, dog stick method, Luoying Divine Sword Palm, Toad Gong, Jade Xiao Sword Technique, and even the Nine Yin True Scripture against the sky, it can be said that these martial arts, no matter which martial arts are practiced to the extreme, they can definitely occupy a place in the rivers and lakes!

However, the two who are also talented and intelligent have completely different results......

Yang Guo finally succeeded in becoming one of the Five Uniques, and he mastered the old naughty Zhou Botong, who can be called the number one master of martial arts, and he did not fall behind, which is enough to show that he is powerful, and under a long roar, it is enough to make the beasts panic, such strength is definitely worthy of the name of the Five Uniques......

And what about Huang Rong?

After giving birth to a child, there is certainly an element of weakened strength, but as a second-generation martial artist who has endured thousands of favors in the martial arts, he is a martial arts master, and in the end, he is just a draw with Li Mochou......

Although Li Mochou is indeed not a weakling, and can even be regarded as a small boss-level character among the Condors, Huang Rong and the other party are tied, which is definitely enough to show that Huang Rong's martial arts are basically not much improved......

He is also gifted and intelligent. But the gap between Yang Guo and Huang Rong's final martial arts is still very large. Why?

Essentially. It's nothing more than a pure word!

Yang has done a lot of martial arts, but at the end, he suddenly realized that it is useless to practice a lot of martial arts, and only by connecting these martial arts and melting them into one furnace can he create a martial art that suits him in the true sense. And those peerless martial arts themselves are nothing more than martial arts that are simply suitable for other people, but they are not really martial arts that can be suitable for themselves......

Because of this, in the later stage, he naturally put on the Xuantie heavy sword on his back and practiced the Gloomy Ecstasy Palm!

In fact, looking at Yang Guo's growth path, in fact, in his growth path, he has learned a lot of martial arts that take the light route, and it can even be said. His martial arts training route has basically always been a light and agile route. For example, in the early days, the Quanzhen swordsmanship, the jade girl swordsmanship, in the middle stage, it was like a snap of a finger and a dog-beating stick method, however, in the later stage, he chose to embark on the road of breaking through ingenuity with strength, what is the reason?

In fact, it is very simple, because from Dugu's message of seeking defeat, he really understands what the essence of martial arts is!

The essence of martial arts, in fact, is strength, a qiē trick, in essence, more simply because of the lack of strength, if the strength is strong enough, then even if the other party has enough skill, will be forced to use their own strength to resist, strong enough to a certain degree of power, will be beyond the tolerance range of skills!

It's like Dugu seeking defeat, at the beginning, it was nothing more than winning with swordsmanship, but when he got older, the grass, trees, bamboos and stones were all grass, trees, bamboos and stones, all of which could be used as swords, and when he reached such a height, it can be said that from a certain Cheng dù, it has turned from the pursuit of swordsmanship to the crushing of strength......

Martial arts itself can't tolerate too many tricks, and a momentary trick may allow you to win some battles, but small wisdom can never compare to great wisdom!

In fact, like Huang Rong's cunzài, it is a typical kind of cleverness, at least on top of the cognition of martial arts, she is more often outwitted to win, and rarely fights with opponents, and compared to Huang Rong, Guo Jing's martial arts line, although it seems a little too simple and dull, but it is precisely a kind of great wisdom in the practice of martial arts, internal skills to practice Jiuyin, used to improve their physical qualifications and enhance their own recovery ability, boxing practice to subdue the dragon, you can shoot people if you want, and finally add left and right fighting, Reach a truly invincible realm!

An internal skill, an external skill, and an auxiliary!

This is Guo Jing's martial arts, without any superfluous thoughts, spending it in other places, and not thinking about the changes in the enemy's moves, no matter what kind of tricks the enemy has, I will be lucky Nine Yin True Qi, and then drive the continuous dragon bombardment of each other!

After reaching this height, in fact, the so-called light skills, the so-called tricks, in fact, are not important, on the contrary, if you slap the past, the enemy will only have the result of exhaustion, if you can't stop it, then it will be a slap directly to death!

This is a concept of returning to the basics in martial arts!

At the beginning, a martial artist practiced martial arts, always hoping that he could learn all kinds of divine skills in the world, and the major divine skills were gathered in one, and he imagined that he could be invincible in the world......

They always feel that the more they learn martial arts, the higher their martial arts knowledge, and the more powerful they will naturally become in actual combat......

At this stage, because the actual strength of the vast majority of martial artists is not too strong, they are more pursuing changes in moves, pursuing all kinds of divine weapons, or martial arts that can quickly improve their combat power......

The more you practice martial arts, the more you naturally feel that you are becoming stronger and stronger, so you start to constantly pursue more and learn more martial arts......

In fact, many people have such characters in their martial arts novels......

Just like Gu Mozhi in the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon, he learned the Xiao Wuxiang Gong that can drive the martial arts of the world, so he naturally wanted to practice all the unique skills in the world, and he was not satisfied with learning the seventy-two stunts with one mind, and he also wanted to obtain various martial arts classics collected by the Murong family, the purpose was to hope that people could become masters in the true sense of the word......

However. In fact. Kumachi is his most powerful martial artist. In fact, it's the flame knife that can be released from the inside out!

If Gu Mozhi was not obsessed with practicing the seventy-two Shaolin stunts, nor was he obsessed with watching the martial arts classics of the Murong family, but instead perfected the martial arts of the Flame Knife with one mind, it would be enough to dominate the martial arts!

In fact, in a low-martial arts world like Jin Yong's novels, martial arts that can release true qi are actually considered to be the top martial arts, and martial arts such as the Flame Knife. In fact, in Jin Yong's novels, it can already be regarded as the top martial arts......

It's just that Gu Mozhi himself can't see through this, and always feels that the martial arts of his predecessors must be better than those of his descendants, so he always wants to learn more martial arts......

After all, this is also a kind of sadness......

Another example is the Emperor Shakti in the midst of the storm......

From a certain point of view, Shakti is a character who is even more powerful than Kumachi, because no matter how powerful Kumachi is, there is always a sweeping monk on top of him who can hold it down......

But Shakti was powerful. Strictly speaking, in the midst of the storm. But it is almost invincible......

has learned all the martial arts in the world, experienced all kinds of lives, achieved the hegemony of the martial arts alliance leader, and even served as the emperor, such a person is actually invincible in the world in the true sense......

However, in order to pursue to make himself stronger, he went to learn what five thunder pole hands, what to organize to slay dragons, what dragon to brush, and finally he was played to death by himself, which is a typical representative of the legend that he will not die if he does not die......

In the final analysis, many times, the path of martial arts itself is not endless, but many people have obviously reached the end, but they still like to go back and walk the road they have walked before......

In many cases, a martial art that suits oneself, if practiced, is often far more powerful than using those so-called peerless techniques!

Just like for Wei Xiaobao, a magic line is enough to make him invincible in the entire Deer and Ding Ji, he is not the most powerful martial artist, but he is the most successful protagonist in all Jin Yong's novels, from the son of a prostitute who doesn't even know what kind of person his father is, to become a famous hero in the world, a hero, a super member of the imperial court, and even a flowery wife has found seven, nothing is more inspirational than Wei Xiaobao's experience......

The most important thing is that in this process, in fact, as the author, Jin Yong has very few golden fingers in it, almost every crisis, Wei Xiaobao can use his intelligence to solve problems, his way of thinking about problems is always very direct and simple, but it is precisely so, so he can always find the best, the most suitable way to solve problems, Wei Xiaobao's martial arts are not high, and his IQ is not high, but his EQ is beyond the reach of all the protagonists in Jin Yong's novels......

In fact, at this point, it can also be seen that Jin Daxia's cognition of chivalry, as well as the dependence of chivalrous on martial arts, is actually constantly changing, and this is precisely the proof that the author is becoming smarter, in fact, the author of a novel is not smart, very Cheng dù above, as long as you look at the number of gold fingers that the author opens for the protagonist in the novel, you can know, the less gold fingers are opened for the protagonist, the less and lowly the identity of the protagonist at the beginning, then the higher the requirements for the author......

In the middle of the rivers and lakes, how can you be invincible?

The answer to this question, in fact, in the process of Jin Yong's continuous writing of novels, is also constantly lowering the conditions, at the beginning, in Jin Yong's novels, the protagonist will always become more and more powerful in the end, and in the end, there are not a few who have achieved the top masters, and the vast majority of their identities are often Guangweizheng, and as time goes by, the protagonist's martial arts in the novel are often decided from the beginning, and gradually become the so-called enough Cheng dù, as for the identity, gradually began to become less valued than before, and even in the Lu Ding Ji, Wei Xiaobao, as the protagonist, didn't even know whether he was full of Han or even Mongolian or Tibetan, which is enough to show that Jin Yong's perception of martial arts is actually subtly changing!

At the beginning, he felt that only with high martial arts could he really be called a master, and only then could he be invincible in the world in the true sense......

It's mid-term. He was just beginning to realize. A master doesn't have to be a good martial artist. As long as it is at the right time, at a critical time, do key things, and often be able to be called a master......

And in the later period, he completely left behind the burden of the so-called martial arts and wrote a protagonist who almost does not know martial arts. But he is such a person, and he has become the most brilliant character in the whole book, his unparalleled wit, his sharp teeth, have left a very deep impression......

If this concept is put in martial arts, isn't this actually a kind of return to basics in martial arts novels?

Wei Xiaobao is not a chivalrous man, and even many of his behaviors violate many standards of chivalry, but he is still the protagonist of a martial arts novel, and he is still the most successful and lucky protagonist of the novel. If you want to choose an object for your own crossing, I'm afraid that the absolute vast majority of people. Wei Xiaobao is a very good choice, even far better than strong people like Guo Jing and Xiao Feng......

Guo Jing himself is a Han Chinese, but he grew up in Mongolia, and he has feelings for both sides in his heart, the Mongol invasion, he is stationed in Xiangyang, itself is a very contradictory behavior, on the one hand, he is unwilling to kill and injure the Mongols in a large area, on the other hand, he hopes to protect the people of Xiangyang from harm, so he is in a dilemma, and finally he can only be forced to die in Xiangyang City......

And Xiao Feng is just the opposite, he himself is a Khitan, but he grew up in the Central Plains, learning the culture of the Han people, in his heart, he is very affectionate for the Han people, but he can't get rid of the blood of the Khitan people in his blood, so he has become a very contradictory person, if you stop the Khitan from invading the Central Plains, then you will forget your ancestors and will be scolded by many people......

And if he chooses to help the Khitan invade the Central Plains, then his own heart will not be able to convince himself......

Therefore, in the end, he can only choose the righteousness first, and then choose death among the choice between the nation and the righteousness......

In this case, it can be said that this is Xiao Feng's only destination......

He had no choice!

Anyone facing such a choice, in fact, I am afraid that it is very helpless, such a hero, in the eyes of many people, is certainly a hero, but it is also a tragic figure, if conditions permit, no one would want to become such a tragic figure!

On the contrary, a character like Wei Xiaobao, but precisely because he doesn't know who his biological father is, he doesn't have the psychological burden of the so-called national righteousness, whether it's helping the emperor, helping the Heaven and Earth Society, or even if you want to join Taiwan, no matter what kind of camp you join, you can choose freely, don't worry about any bondage and righteousness, as the son of a prostitute, as a person who doesn't even know whose kind it is, Wei Xiaobao is actually the most relaxed, because in his body, There is no so-called righteousness, and all his choices are just out of his own heart!

And this is why many protagonists of novels, even if they survive in the end, are often depressed, but Lord Wei is one of the few winners in life who can retire and enjoy life in a real sense......

At this moment, Wang Yu thought of something in his mind, but it was a scene in the sky and dragon slayer......

It was a scene of Zhang Wuji learning Tai Chi and Tai Chi swordsmanship......

At that time, after Zhang Sanfeng demonstrated it, he asked Zhang Wuji if he remembered it, Zhang Wuji said at the beginning that he remembered seventy percent, and asked again the second time, Zhang Wuji said that he forgot a little half, and the third time he asked, Zhang Wuji forgot most of it......

In the end, it was completely forgotten to clean it completely!

And this is precisely where Tai Chi is really clever!

Taijiquan or Taijijian, whether it is Taijiquan or Taijijian, what it pursues is not to say the tricks themselves, but the artistic conception of the tricks, which can be said to be the swordsmanship and boxing techniques that have an intentional intention but no tricks......

Zhang Wuji's comprehension is not high, so he can understand the so-called sword intent in the shortest possible time, and it is not a sword move!

In fact, in essence, for the current Wang Yu, the situation is the same!

In his mind, there are actually many pictures of him fighting, and these pictures of battles are naturally very important memories in his mind......

However, compared to these memories......

What Wang Yu needs is not these, but the precious fighting instincts contained in these memories! (To be continued......)
