Volume 1 Mottled Teenage Dream Chapter 6 Riding the Wind
The Yang Mountain Range is majestic and continuous, composed of 23 large and small peaks, among which the highest four peaks are just the main peak in the middle of the southeast and northwest quadrangle, the east is Qi Peak, the west is Bi Feng, the south is Wing Peak, the north is Dou Feng, the middle peak is Kun Peak, and is called the five peaks of Qingyang.
Qifeng, Bi Feng, Yifeng, and Doufeng are respectively presided over by the four most respected elders of Qingyang Academy, while Kunfeng has always been headed by the sect master.
After two years of basic practice of martial arts, qi cultivation and virtue, the newly recruited inner disciples will be dispersed to the five peaks after the general election competition, and the young people who become inner disciples of course hope to be able to enter Kunfeng, which not only shows their status but also shows that their talents are valued, if they can become the personal disciples of the sect master, it will be a leaping dragon gate, and it can be said that the future martial arts road will be bright.
In the early morning of the next day, after a night's rest, a hundred teenagers got up early and came to a large martial arts training ground, sat down cross-legged in a neat and orderly manner, and on the high platform at the front of the martial arts field stood a middle-aged man wearing a long robe and carrying a long sword, and an elegant old man in gray clothes and a thin body.
The middle-aged man in white saw the audience sit down and stood three steps forward and stood at the front, and the clear voice came into the ears of every young man: "My name is Xianyang, I will teach you basic martial arts in the next two years from now on, I hope you can encourage yourself, those who can become inner disciples are all gifted, but without the diligent excavation of the day after tomorrow, it is also a waste of this talent, so those who are lazy and slack will be punished." ”
Next, Xianyang explained the basic principle of strength to the young people in the audience: everyone has the ability to cultivate strength, ordinary people and martial arts masters are the same, but the realm that can be reached in the end is different, the main difference is their own talent, coupled with the acquired cultivation determines the speed and skill of mastering power, resulting in the size of mastering power. The difference between ordinary people and martial arts masters is not only the innate martial arts talent, but also the acquired cultivation resources, such as pills, martial arts cheats, cave heaven blessed land and other auxiliary resources are also very important.
As for the elegant old man's name is Lu Xiangyi, who is responsible for the teaching of qi cultivation and virtue, the so-called qi cultivation is not only to cultivate the qi of Haoran in the body, but also to communicate with the qi of heaven and earth, and to turn external force into one's own use. In his words, Haoran Qi is as important as martial arts cultivation, and the two complement each other. Haoran's spirit nourishes the heart of chivalry, and a warrior without a chivalrous heart is only a martial artist no matter how high his cultivation is. Then he said a lot of mysterious and mysterious statements, but seeing the dazed eyes of the young man in the audience, the old man gave up his plan to continue the tirade, so he had to stop in a huff.
After the two of them finished talking on the stage, they immediately started a day's training without leaving time to rest. Hundreds of teenagers in the martial arts school field separated from each other after standing apart Lu Xianyang practiced a set of Qingyang Academy's most common boxing method, it is said that this set of boxing is the founder of the mountain ancestor fusion of a hundred schools, and according to their own perception of heaven and earth evolution created, this statement may have exaggerated elements, but this set of boxing from the beginning of the school to spread now, has become every inner disciple and outer disciple must learn the basic boxing method.
The boxing method is called Tianxiang Boxing, there are a total of seventeen moves, each move contains a variety of variations, but it is not complicated for the teenagers who practice martial arts, and can pass this selection, not only talented, but also more or less have learned more than one kind of martial arts. Lu Xianyang demonstrated the Celestial Elephant Boxing twice, and the young people in the audience had already learned it well, although most of them only had its form and did not get its meaning.
A morning was spent in boxing, and Lu Xianyang was constantly correcting the movements of the teenagers on the side.
At noon, it is two hours of meditation and meditation, martial arts practitioners do not need to spend too much time to sleep, entering the meditation state can also allow the body to rest and recover, and at the same time, it can also let the body qi and heaven and earth qi communicate and merge, so as to nourish the "qi" of their body, the more vigorous the "qi" can be perceived, the wider the range of perception, it is rumored that martial arts masters can even perceive the movement within a radius of thousands of miles, and a breath can affect the surrounding environment.
Su Yuan is naturally more than 108,000 miles away from this realm, but he closes his eyes and calms down to adjust his breathing, according to the method and tips, all his thoughts are withdrawn from his senses, and he quietly feels the movement around him, and after a while, he can vaguely "see" a few blurred shadows around, and hear the regular heartbeat sound of each shadow "bang, bang, bang", Su Yuan strives to find and identify the unique beating sound of each shadow, and unconsciously immerses himself in it.
I don't know how long it took, the consciousness around the body was guided back into the body by a force, Su Yuan woke up from meditation, and suddenly felt refreshed, and the slight fatigue brought by practicing boxing was swept away.
The young men on the martial arts training ground woke up from meditation one after another, at this time the sun was in the sky, in this slightly cold spring season, the warm sun was shining on the body, and the whole person was like bathing in a hot spring, and every part of the body was extremely comfortable.
In fact, just two hours had passed, but all of Su Yuan's spiritual consciousness was focused on meditation, so that his feeling of time was weakened, and most of the teenagers around him were also in this state, with a look of unfinished business. However, it was obvious that the young man who woke up the meditative young man was the elegant old man Lu Xiangyi, who saw him standing in the middle of the school field and clearing his throat, "'Qi' is an extension of people's senses, and the scope of extension depends on the size of 'Qi', but 'Qi' can not be cultivated overnight, and it needs to be tirelessly nourished to grow." ”
After Lu Lao finished speaking, Xianyang continued to cultivate, and in the afternoon, he paid more attention to the cultivation of physical strength, speed, and body technique. And the method is also simple and straightforward, everyone carries fifty pounds of sand iron behind them to keep up with the pace of the head of the team in front of the team.
In the afternoon, Qingyang Mountain still seems quiet and deep, the peaks are shrouded in clouds and mist, the craggy peaks are covered with lush trees, the emerald green leaves are hung with water droplets formed by mist, the sunlight is scattered on the dew drops and is reflected with a faint golden light, and the peaks are outlined from a distance. Between the quiet or steep mountain roads, I saw a hundred teenagers lined up to form a "long dragon" running and jumping under the leadership of Xianyang, the "long dragon" passed through the place from time to time startled by bursts of bird calls, the "long dragon" sometimes walked through the steep mountain wall, sometimes over the cliff, sometimes across the mountain stream river, on the way there were also teenagers who fell and were injured, but gritted their teeth and insisted on following.
Although the empty and towering Qingyang Mountain has thousands of disciples, the mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, there are many large and small peaks, most of the inner disciples and outer disciples are practicing on the peaks of the gate, other districts are sparsely populated, and the whole mountain range is extremely broad, most of the areas appear empty and secluded, the "long dragon" of a hundred people is even more small, hanging obliquely in the sky from noon to sunset, hiding behind the low-hanging clouds, "long dragon" After only passing through four peaks, the intermittent procession stopped in an empty valley, at this time most of the teenagers were lying on the ground on all fours, panting, but fortunately, the valley had obviously been artificially repaired, and it was quite comfortable to lie on the flat stones.
After resting for a while, recovering a little strength, Xianyang led the group to turn a corner along the valley, and the eyes became more and more open, and after a while, they came to a platform.
The rock wall on both sides of the platform stands thousands of thousands, the end of the platform is a deep pool, the pool water is green and quiet, there are red lotus flowers blooming on the water surface, and the waterfall formed by the convergence of the flowing water in the mountains in the distance pours straight down to the pond water from the mountain. There is a pavilion built next to the pond, in the pavilion, Lu Xiangyi holds a book in his left hand, and holds his beard in his right hand, as if he is completely ignorant of the outsiders who are coming, and is immersed in this poetic and picturesque world.
Xianyang stood in front of the young man, "Today's martial arts cultivation is over here, and the next step is to study etiquette, law, soldiers, and history." After speaking, he turned his head to look, and saw that Lu Xiangyi was still holding the scroll and reading it with relish, so he walked to the pavilion and coughed dryly, reminding Lu Lao that it was time for him to preach and receive a job.
The teenagers sat crisscrossed on the ground in front of the pavilion, listening to Lu Lao's eloquent explanation of the books in his hands, just like the old gentleman in the academy teaching the protégés below to solve their doubts.
In addition to martial arts practice, the martial arts academy of the empire also includes such as etiquette, the art of war, history, criminal law, hundred herbs, etc., the martial arts academy is built by the empire, and a large number of materials are provided every year for development, and the amount of materials is determined by the final ranking of the martial arts competition held by the empire every five years, so the martial arts academy also regards the ranking of the competition as the most important goal of development and growth. And as a way to give back to the empire, every year the martial arts academy will send a certain number of disciples into the imperial army, the empire and the martial arts academy are ostensibly cooperative with each other, but in fact there is another way to better reflect the relationship between the two: the martial arts academy is actually the empire's backyard for cultivating military strength.
The Youyun Empire has been at war with the Sea Clan in the Cangyu Strait of the West Sea for more than 7,000 years. Weapons are dominant, helpless sea tribe lives in the West Sea in the thousand stone reef islands, the empire has many times in the Cangyu Strait defeated the sea tribe after the victory to pursue, but into the dotted islands as if entering a labyrinth, the imperial fleet almost suffered the result of total annihilation, so the war between the empire and the sea tribe has always been scorched in the Cangyu Strait, every year there will be a large number of heroic souls passing away in the strait, so that the sea water is faint blood red all year round. It can be said that the hatred between the empire and the sea tribe has accumulated for more than 7,000 years, which is higher than the mountains and seas and deeper than the sea.
It is precisely because of this that the people of the empire are proud of killing the enemy in battle, and the empire also gives generous rewards for military merits, and there are often soldiers from civilian backgrounds who stand out and become the new nobles of the empire, which undoubtedly gives them the opportunity to get ahead for the powerless civilians, so the number of disciples of the martial arts academy who join the imperial legion every year is more than the quota.
It wasn't until twilight fell on Qingyang Mountain that the day's cultivation and study was over, and a hundred teenagers officially spent their first day in Qingyang Academy, and in addition to the fatigue brought by a day's practice, there was also a faint flash of excitement and yearning on their immature faces.
There is still a long road ahead, and every teenager fantasizes about making a name for himself. And the future growth path is closely related to every day of today's teenagers.
