Chapter 12: Skill
Then, Yi Jiuxiao stepped on a strange step, it was the martial arts mastery "Piercing Flower Step" that he had practiced in his previous life, this step implied the principle of Nine Palace Gossip, which was very wonderful, it was originally used by people in the martial arts to escape, Yi Jiuxiao, as a soldier of the Great Song Dynasty, had never used it, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today. I saw that he kept moving back and forth, left and right, and every time his body was wonderful, just dodging Wan Shu's crazy grasp.
When the competition reached the * stage, the audience was shocked to see the young man in black like a butterfly wearing flowers, floating around on the stage, which was very good-looking. The young man in white was like a mad tiger, with a swift body and unusual bravery, fluttering with butterflies, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get close, and applause rang out in the audience again and again.
When the time came, the host Wan He announced the end of the game. Wan He originally retreated to the audience to watch the game, but like ordinary spectators, he almost forgot the time, and finally came to the stage in time to announce the end of the game under the reminder of the head of the Wan family.
The two teenagers both stood upright, standing on both sides of the host, without waiting for the host to announce the results, Wan Shufang faced the audience and said loudly, "I lost", these three words spit out from his mouth, without a trace of reluctance, calmly and frankly, which made Yi Jiuxiao suddenly feel good. Under normal circumstances, a rich boy like Wan Shufang will be angry after losing, or find a reason for himself.
"The competition just now is very exciting, the young people in the song and dance workshop have extraordinary skills, and their crazy performance is also very good!" Wan Qianhao, the head of the Wan family, stood up from his seat and faced the two teenagers, his words were very magnanimous, and he said them very pertinently and fairly.
"Wanhe, wait a minute, you go to the treasury and withdraw a hundred taels of silver, and reward it to the boy in the song and dance workshop. ”
One hundred taels of silver is really a lot, more than Yi Jiuxiao's salary in the song and dance workshop for a year, Wanfu did what he said, it was really atmospheric, and the audience burst into warm applause, not only for Yi Jiuxiao, but also for the head of the Wan family.
"Thank you for the reward!" Yi Jiuxiao is very proficient in affairs, so naturally he will not lack courtesy, and he bows down and clasps his fists to give a salute to the head of the Wan family. After that, he thanked Wan Shufang next to him.
Wan Shufang also clenched his fists and saluted back, saying, "May I ask this brother's surname?"
"The stage name in the song and dance workshop is Jiujiu, and the full name is Yi Jiuxiao. Yi Jiuxiao's answer was also frank.
"Brother Yi's skills are very extraordinary, I want to learn more from you in the future, I don't know if there is a chance?"
"Naturally, I can't ask for it, as long as the adults in the song and dance workshop allow it. ”
Yi Jiuxiao studied art in the song and dance workshop, his time and itinerary are not up to him, and he will learn from Wan Shu in the future, not if he wants to come, he needs to ask for permission from the manager of the song and dance workshop, but it should not be difficult to come forward as Wan Fu.
Before the banquet ended, Xin Song took a few children to resign from Wanfuguan, which was originally a difficult and arduous errand, but under Yi Jiuxiao's wonderful performance, it was successfully completed, and won the praise of Wanjia and the guests on the scene, and the limelight was even better than the other two elite teams.
On the second day of returning to the song and dance workshop, Xin Song truthfully reported the performance process to the hall owner Liangyu and the owner Liangyue, and the two sisters were also very happy, praised Yi Jiuxiao in person, and also gave Xin Song and Yi Jiuxiao rewards, and let Yi Jiuxiao teach other kabuki in the song and dance workshop, and the swallow dance was one of the key programs of the song and dance workshop.
Before half a month, someone from Wanfu came to the owner with a post, saying that Wanfu had invited Yi Jiuxiao to learn skills with the young master, and it was not determined how many days he would go. Liang Yue, the owner of Wanfu, did not refuse, the song and dance workshop has a lot of contacts with the wealthy families of Kaizhou all the year round, and these faces must be given, so he immediately arranged for Yi Jiuxiao to pack up his things and go to Wanfu's carriage.
The steward directly took Yi Jiuxiao to Wan Shufang's residence, which was an independent courtyard in Wanfu, about the same size as Huang Luo's mansion, with maids, mothers-in-law and servants. Wan Shufang asked Yi Jiuxiao to sit down in the study, and the maid made a cup of fragrant tea.
Yi Jiuxiao gave Wan Shumad a salute, and Wan Shumad immediately returned the salute, Kabuki's status is low, and it stands to reason that Wan Shumad doesn't need to return the salute. After the salute, Wan Shufang said a request:
"We are about the same age, and in the future, we will call you by name, I will call you Jiuxiao, and you will call me crazy. ”
"Okay, then offended. Yi Jiuxiao also doesn't like cumbersome etiquette, he was born noble in his previous life, and he is really not used to letting him keep his voice down, seeing Wan Shufang propose like this, it is also very much in line with his own wishes.
"We will be friends in the future, Jiuxiao, are you practicing spells or refining your body?"
"I don't have a spiritual root, I can't practice spells, as for refining the body, I don't know what it is?"
"Body refining is a branch of cultivation, you actually don't have a spiritual root, this is impossible! If you haven't cultivated, it's impossible to jump to a height of two zhang, and it's already good for a normal mortal to jump to five or six feet. ”
Wan Shu was puzzled, he always thought that Yi Jiuxiao was also a cultivator, and only a cultivator had the ability to surpass ordinary people.
"If I have to talk about cultivation, I practice martial arts. ”
"Martial arts, what is that?" Wan Shufang was puzzled, he heard the word martial arts for the first time in his life.
Sure enough, no one here cultivates martial arts, and Yi Jiuxiao is now completely sure. Before, Huang Luo said that without him, he was not a full believer, because Huang Luo himself was a businessman, and now even Wan Shufang, who was born in the Xiuzhen family, had never heard of the word martial arts, and it seemed that martial arts was really lost in the Qi Kingdom.
"Martial arts is to exercise the body, so that the body surpasses ordinary people, with greater strength and more agile movements. Yi Jiuxiao could only make a simple description of martial arts.
"Isn't that just refining the body?strange, refining the body also needs to have a spiritual root, it seems that you can't refine the body without a spiritual root, right?" Wan Shu scratched his head, puzzled.
"What is body refining?" Yi Jiuxiao didn't know anything about body refining, and he was also very curious, he saw Wan Shumad's performance on the stage, it was not like a spell, but it was very similar to martial arts.
Wan Shufang decided to explain the refining body in detail: "Cultivation is divided into two types: law cultivation and physical cultivation, law cultivation is mainly based on cultivating various spells, through the cultivation of spells, accumulate spiritual power, comprehend the avenue of heaven and earth, and improve one's cultivation, the mana of law cultivation is very strong, but the physique is relatively weak." Physical cultivation is the use of some cultivation methods, and with the help of natural and earthly treasures, so that the cultivator's physique changes, can pass through fire and water, invulnerable, and as hard as the magic weapon, the two methods of cultivation are actually different paths to the same end, both are to improve the ability of the practitioner, the pursuit of strength, the pursuit of immortality. ”
"Can cultivation really be immortal?" In his previous life in the Great Song Dynasty, Yi Jiuxiao had also heard that cultivators could live forever, but that was all legends, no one had ever seen the real immortals, and after being reincarnated, he heard people talk about immortality for the first time, and it was not a legend, he heard it face-to-face, and he heard it from a real cultivator.
"Immortality is just the pursuit of a cultivator, and it is against the heavens. The Heavenly Dao allows mortals to be more than a hundred years old at most, and cultivators can extend their lifespan through the ascension of the cultivation realm, and the Dharma cultivation realm usually has Qi refining, foundation building, Jindan, Yuanying, and even higher realms, each realm has nine layers, and the lifespan of the same realm is almost the same. Among them, the Qi Refining Realm can live to be one hundred and fifty years old, which is only slightly more than that of mortals. When you reach the foundation building realm, you can live for more than two hundred years, the Jindan realm can live for more than five hundred years, the Yuanying realm can live to be more than a thousand years old, and the upper realm can live longer, maybe there is really immortality. ”
Yi Jiuxiao was very glad to know Wan Shumad, because there was no cultivator by his side, even if the owner was a mortal, no one explained the level and realm of cultivation to him, since the law cultivation can be immortal, can martial arts cultivation be immortal?
"What realms does a body refiner have, and can he also live forever?"
"The realm division of the refining body is different from the law cultivation, the refining body is divided into the battle body, the divine body, and the holy body, of which the battle body is divided into nine layers, my current cultivation is two layers, the third layer of the battle body is equivalent to the foundation building realm, the sixth layer is equivalent to the Jindan realm, the ninth layer is equivalent to the Yuanying realm, and the corresponding realm has an equal lifespan, as for the divine body and the holy body, they are all legends, at least the Qi country has not appeared. By the way, are the martial arts you practice also divided into levels and realms?"
Of course, martial arts cultivation is also divided into levels and realms, and since Wan Shufang knows everything about himself, Yi Jiuxiao can't keep it.
"Martial arts also have levels, which are divided into martial arts, martial arts, martial kings, martial emperors, martial emperors, martial emperors, and other realms, I am barely at the level of martial artists, and martial arts cultivation does not need spiritual roots, and I don't know if I can prolong my life. ”
"It turns out that there are many levels of martial arts, and you don't need a spiritual root, this is really good, your martial artist realm is stronger than the second layer of my battle body." ”
Wan Shufang did not despise Yi Jiuxiao because he did not have a spiritual root, Wan Jia, as a Xiuzhen family, still admired ability, Yi Jiuxiao's martial artist realm, and his physical ability was really stronger than his second-layer battle body.
"Are you physically cultivating, is it difficult to refine the body?" Because there are body refining, god refining, and vein refining in martial arts practice, Yi Jiuxiao is still very interested in Wan Shu's body refining, but he doesn't know what the difference is between the two body refining.
