Volume 5, The Three Realms of the Stars and Moon_Chapter 5, The Rules of the Military Family
"What is the principle of this lake? Why can you see the strength of the breath? ”
"When this lake was built, it was designed to test the strength of the breath, and at the bottom of the lake made a magic circle barrier that senses the breath, and when you put your hand into it, the lake water will react, communicate with the qi in your body, and then spread around in the shape of water waves, and the magic circle will react after sensing the strength of the breath in the water wave, that is, conjuring the kind of light we saw before. Then the pillar of light merges, and finally all the scattered qi condenses into one, which is the strength of your breath. "As soon as Jun Yan explained, I really think it's a bit advanced.
"Sounds quite advanced, is there any level of strength or weakness? Well...... How long will your grandpa last? I thought about it and asked, although the question was a bit self-conscious, but I was really curious in my heart.
"My grandfather? Oh, the old man measured the lake once when it was first built, and the whole lake was glowing, and the converging pillars of light occupied almost two-thirds of the whole lake, and it could be seen very clearly both at night and during the day. It lasted for more than a month, and then because there was no way to test it for others, the old man restarted the magic circle himself, otherwise no one knows how long the pillar of light would last. ”
It's a fucking comparison! There was a roar in my heart, and the pillar of light that had just been my own was at most fifty centimeters in diameter, and it had only lasted for five seconds.
"Hehe, don't be discouraged, my old man has learned too many skills, many lost masters, and there are no more than three people who can compare with his old man in the rivers and lakes, it's normal for you to be compared." Jun Yan said with a grin.
I shrugged my shoulders, but there was no need to care about this kind of thing, I turned around and said, "By the way, you said to give me the wind, that's what you mean?" If nothing else, I'll go back first. ”
I still have that mysterious exercise book in mind, and I desperately want to go back.
"Of course not, you are not allowed to drink alcohol in the barracks until the New Year's holiday, so I don't usually have it, but I have good things here......" As he spoke, he actually took out a bottle of wine from the crack in the stone next to him, and looked at me with two glasses and a smile.
To be honest, I'm really a bit of a glutton, although I want to go back, but how can I let go of the good wine right in front of me? The two of them sat on the edge of the lake, poured a glass, and chatted.
"Why didn't I see your parents? Speaking of which, how did you become your grandfather's successor? Where's your dad? One person drank more than one or two, and the box was opened. He shook his head and said, "I don't have parents. ”
My parents are gone and I don't have parents, although these two sentences are very similar, but in the context they are different, I was stunned for a moment when I heard this sentence, and asked strangely: "What's the situation?" ”
"My parents died when I was born, I didn't see them, and my grandfather rarely talked about them, only told me they were dead. The old man was an only son, so after my father was gone, I became his successor, and although I was not a qualified successor, I was his only relative. He took a sip of wine and sighed with some melancholy: "I remember this atmosphere here when I was a child, although some buildings will still change, but that feeling will not." Although this is not a military camp, it is better than a military camp, get up at 6 o'clock to practice in the morning, eat on time at 12 o'clock, and continue to practice at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The work and rest must be strict, the standing and sitting posture must be standard, and the housekeeping must be qualified. I endured it until I was eighteen years old, and I couldn't take it anymore and ran away from home. After a few years in society, the old man sent someone to pick me up, and when I came back, I had a showdown with him. Saying that I wanted to be free, I still remember that the old man stared at me for a long time that day, but let me go without saying anything. After I came out, I relied on the relationship of the military family in the society to open the Sanfu Teahouse, and became a small boss hidden behind the scenes. However, I am used to the days of freedom, and sometimes I really miss the controlled life in the past. ”
The two of us finished drinking the bottle of wine and felt that we couldn't enjoy the conversation, but it was getting late, so we said goodbye to each other and went back to the dormitory. As soon as I went back, although I still had some tips after drinking, I couldn't resist the curiosity in my heart, so I still took out the exercises hidden in the quilt. Leaning against the wall, I looked at it there, and the more I looked at it, the more subtle it became. To be honest, although I was forced to read a lot of books by Old Man Tao, I honestly spent all my effort on practicing "Wudang Five Elements Gong", and reversing my luck six times became an opportunity for me to become stronger. However, I know very well in my heart where my weakness lies, that is, my foundation is too poor. Basic skills are like building a foundation, the better your foundation will be, the better your development will be, and the worse your foundation, you will inevitably not be able to go far in the future. Although I have practiced "Wudang Five Elements Gong" hard, this exercise itself is not considered superior, and my reversal of luck and other things have happened, so that I still build a foundation with the help of this not excellent exercise. Therefore, unless I rely on luck or natural treasures, it will be difficult for my cultivation to improve. But if I had practiced this exercise at the beginning, maybe I would have been stronger now.
"It's a pity, although I can understand three or four points, but this is all a realization, and it is difficult to practice." This kind of advanced practice is different from "Wudang Five Elements Gong", it will not teach you how to practice at all, not to tell you the operation method of one plus one equals two, but to tell you a way of solving problems, this kind of self-study is very difficult, because there is a feeling of not knowing where to start.
"Damn, I don't know how to ......move the mountain of gold," I scolded in my heart, quite sorry.
That's it, I didn't sleep all night, and I flipped through the ten or so pages of paper, and when I saw that I finally figured out a taste, I felt that this last page was not the end of this exercise, and there was a feeling that it had stopped abruptly and disappeared. Obviously, this book of exercises left here is not complete, and I only got a part of it!
"It's a pity, I don't know which master left here, if only you could guide me in." Everything is difficult at the beginning, and if I want to learn this set of exercises, I have to find the thread from it first and slowly figure it out.
There was a morning exercise call outside, and I yawned and was about to get some sleep, but at this moment, someone knocked on my door again. I walked lazily over and saw the young man standing in the doorway who had told me to go to dinner yesterday.
"What's the matter?" I asked, poutingly.
"Please." He still stood in a standard military stance, but that made me feel confused.
"? What the am I doing? I asked curiously.
"This is the order of the head of the family, let you go out with us for training." The young man's words shocked me, the old man actually asked me to participate in the training, I came to take refuge, how did it become "joining the army"? I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "You are mistaken, I am different from you, I am not here to apply for a job as a military guard, you go and tell the old-timers, I am taking refuge." ”
"This is the order of the head of the house, please obey it. He asked me to bring you a message saying that if you don't follow his words, you don't follow our family's rules, then please leave our family. "Now I finally understand the meaning of the old man's repeated emphasis on letting me abide by the rules of the military family yesterday, and he was waiting for me here!
"Am I going to wear the same uniform as you?" I glanced at him and asked.
"Yes, this is your uniform, please change into it and report to the 3rd Squadron in five minutes!" After saying that, he stood up again and bent slightly towards me, then left behind a blue uniform and left. I looked at the uniform in front of me and had a strong bad premonition that I might have to suffer this time when I came to the military house.
Changing into a uniform, I reluctantly went to the playground, and at a glance there were seven or eight phalanxes training, and when I was looking for where the so-called third squadron was, a big man beckoned to me. Hurriedly walked over, there were fifty people in a squadron, counting me is fifty-one, the squadron leader glanced at me and said: "My name is Pinggui, I am the captain of the third squadron, and the master's order is that you will be a member of our squadron in the future, and I will be in charge!" Now, stand upright! ”
I was stunned for a moment, stood up straight, he looked at me, stepped over and kicked me in the foot, and then said, "Toes apart, heels together, belly and chest!" Now start your hour in the military position! Everyone else has it, 10,000 meters, start running now! ”
