Chapter 3 Capital for the Future
The cold came and the summer passed, and the ten years passed in a hurry.
In the courtyard of one side, I saw a young man in brocade clothes holding a sharp sword, standing tall, although it is not a jade tree in the wind, and the appearance is better than Pan An, but it can also be said to be a majestic and high-spirited sword, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes; In particular, the slightest edge revealed between the eyebrows shows that this person is extraordinary, and the sword in his hand will definitely shock the world when it shows its edge.
After a while, I saw that the figure of the person flickered, and the sword in his hand danced out like flowing water, and in just a moment, the courtyard was covered with sword light, and the silver light flickered, and the sword qi swept out of a vacuum around itself.
After the sword light flickered half a pillar of incense, only the sound of "Qiang" was heard, and the long sword was returned to the sheath. The young man in the field also exhaled a long breath and relaxed his tense body.
"Brother Yu, you are so powerful, no wonder my father said that even he can't compare to you!" I saw an eleven or twelve-year-old boy in the field, and the young man rushed over after collecting his sword, and his eyes were full of admiration.
The young man in the field was naturally Nangong Yu who worshiped Lin Zhennan as his teacher, and the one who rushed up after Nangong Yu collected his sword was Lin Pingzhi, who had been getting along for ten years, Lin Pingzhi had already regarded the one in front of him as his eldest brother, and even regarded it as his goal.
"Brother Yu, you've finished practicing, can you continue to tell me the story of Guo Jing and Guo Daxia?" Thinking of this, Lin Pingzhi's eyes burst with longing and expectation, "It's finally time to listen to the story again, I don't know what happened to this Guo Daxia, can Xiangyang be kept?" How long will it take for me to become such a hero! "My heart is constantly agitated, but what meets me is a basin of cold water.
"I'm sorry, Pingzhi, I'm going to leave for Beijing tomorrow to catch the exam, I have to prepare well today, I'm afraid I can't tell you a story, I'll tell you when I come back."
As soon as he heard this, Lin Pingzhi's whole face drooped, "Ah, why is this so?" ”
Looking at Lin Pingzhi, who was disappointed in front of him, Nangong Yu was also very helpless, so he had to speak: "Pingzhi, this time it's really not good, but haven't you always wanted to know why Guo Jing is called a hero by the world?" ”
"Uh-huh, why? His martial arts are not the strongest, but why does everyone say that he is a hero? ”
"Because of his philosophy, he once said, 'For the country and the people, the great man of chivalry', this is the concept he pursued all his life, and it is precisely because of this that he can be called 'hero' for everyone in the rivers and lakes. I told you that there is no 'chivalry' in the current rivers and lakes, not because they are not good at martial arts, but because their beliefs are confined to one person, one family, and one faction, not the world, so they are not worthy of being chivalrous. If you want to become a real hero, then you need to think about it, how you can contribute to the people, the country, and how to be called a 'hero'. Do you understand? ”
Lin Pingzhi nodded blankly, as for whether he could comprehend Nangong Yu, he didn't care, as long as he planted such a seed. After rubbing Lin Pingzhi's head a few times, he walked straight out.
"Big brother, I will remember, I will definitely become a hero!" As if to react, Lin Pingzhi said again and again, and kept waving his hand to say goodbye to Nangong Yu. Nangong Yu didn't look back, only left a sentence of "practice hard" and rushed home.
When he returned home, he saw his mother packing his luggage for himself, and Nangong Yu hurriedly stepped forward.
"Mother, I'll just collect it myself, you don't have to help me."
"What nonsense, this is your first time going far away, how do you know what you need? Go quickly, my mother will help you prepare everything, and you can go and talk to your father. ”
Seeing his mother's resolute attitude, Nangong Yu couldn't say anything, so he could only go to the study to chat with his father.
"You're back from practice? I'm going to take the exam tomorrow, and I don't know how to rest today. ”
"Of course you can't stop, one slack will bring countless slackness, and I don't want my hard work to be in vain."
Seeing that his son replied to himself resolutely, Nangong Zheng shook his head and smiled.
"You have your own opinions since you were a child, and I can't advise you anything, but you have to remember that you must take care of yourself at all times, don't be too strict about your practice, and it is still necessary to rest occasionally......"
For the first time, Nangong Yu found that his father was so able to nag, it was like talking endlessly, of course, he also knew that it was for his good, so he nodded very cooperatively, as for whether he could listen to it or not was another matter. Seeing his son like this, Nangong Zheng didn't know that he didn't listen at all.
Raised his hand and pointed at Nangong Yu and said, "You! Alas...... Have you been with your master and sister? ”
"Well, I told them before I went to practice martial arts in the morning."
"Well, then you ......"
chatted without a word, and didn't stop until the evening when the mother came to call for dinner, this is the first time in so many years that the father and son have talked for so long, although it is mostly Nangong Zheng who is talking, Nangong Yu is listening.
After a pleasant dinner with his family, Nangong Yu returned to his house. Straight up to the bed and sat down cross-legged.
Close your eyes and start visualizing. This is also the inspiration he brought from the countless novels he read in his previous life, because he knew that the soul of martial arts would inevitably have a huge effect, so it was definitely right to prepare earlier. Of course, he didn't have any way to visualize, what he was visualizing was the white light that brought him out of chaos to this side of the world.
In the first few years, there was no effect, and he had no hope, just used it as a meditation method, but he didn't expect that three years ago it was a sudden change, his brain seemed to be more active, more clear, and the moves that he could barely perform dozens of times in the past can now be used skillfully only a few times, thinking of this, he will spend more time on visualization, and now, even if he doesn't sleep all night just to visualize, he can still be energetic on the second day, and his memory and talent for practicing martial arts have also undergone earth-shaking changes. Now he doesn't say that he will never forget it, but any book and martial arts can be mastered by heart only a few times, and it is these changes that have made his strength have made great progress.
In the past, what he followed in his practice was repetition, thousands of repetitions, and the inner strength of his cultivation "Zen Sutra" is an authentic Buddhist practice, and he pays more attention to his own comprehension, so his progress has been very slow.
Until three years ago, he had only reached the third-rate level, but since the method of visualization took effect, he has reached the peak level of the second rate in just two years, and many of the difficulties encountered in the past have been comprehended in a short period of time, and now he has half a foot into the first-class level.
At the same time, he also found that since the method of visualization worked, his five senses were more sensitive, and when he fought with Lin Zhennan, he could easily see through Lin Zhennan's movements, and at the same time, he could break them with a wonderful trick like antelope hanging horns......
It is precisely because of these changes that Nangong Yu is convinced that this method of visualization will be the capital for him to step into a higher realm in the future.
