Chapter 33: Strength and Skill
After listening to Lu Miaozi's words, Tang Chen suddenly woke up.
This is because I think too much and am limited by my inherent thinking, who said that you must need light work to run fast?
This world is full of vitality, and the internal breath can directly attract the innate true qi, and it is not the best light-weight exercise. As for who can run fast, it depends on whose true qi is well controlled, and it all depends on experience and talent.
At this point, he remembered something about cultivation, his previous life was the world of the end of the law, and without the slightest bit of vitality, he couldn't generate internal force at all. He didn't know anything, and when he came to this world, if he hadn't inherited the memories of his predecessor, he would have been blind a long time ago.
After all, how many modern people know about the blood meridians and meridians of the whole body?
And the direction of cultivation of martial arts, in his understanding, can be roughly divided into two categories.
One is skill, the other is strength, but anyone who practices martial arts is either proficient in one or both directions.
Skills are moves, and all kinds of subtle moves can make up for the shortcomings of strength, and even be able to challenge beyond the level.
It's like the original earth, because there is very little vitality, or even none, the individual strength is about the same, and the kung fu moves are exquisite, you can fight a few big men with one enemy, and even a woman can beat several big men.
Force, is power, is cultivation, the emphasis is on breaking the skill with force, no matter what moves you have, push directly horizontally, and break it with one force! This is only available in the world with strong vitality, just like the wind in Gensokyo, no matter how awesome your moves are, one shot will be gone.
Therefore, the level of martial arts is related to the concentration of the world's vitality, but this is not absolute, after all, the evolution of the world is not something that Tang Chen can see clearly.
Light Gong is the exercise of light body, since it can float in the air independently, why do you need light work, isn't that an extra move?
Thinking of strength and technique, Tang Chen thought of the world he was in again.
In this world, the vitality is strong, according to the theory of the earth in the previous life, this world should be called the Zhongwu close to the high-martial world, and there are mysterious things such as the broken void.
For martial arts, it is obvious that both are very important.
However, because of the strong vitality, the total amount of first-class second-rate internal interest is quite different, and the master of it will crush the insufficient internal interest, at this time, unless the skill is extremely superb, otherwise it will have no effect at all.
But it is different between the same level, because the cultivation is almost the same, so the skill has become important again, this is the relationship between skill and strength that Tang Chen thinks about himself.
Limited to his own knowledge, he could have thought of these things.
After putting down the matter of light work, he turned his attention to his own cultivation, looking inward at his meridians, and the immortal true qi glowing with silver light was slowly galloping.
Starting from the dantian, it flows through all the meridians of the whole body, large and small, and circulates back to the dantian, in the process, because it absorbs and refines the heaven and earth vitality of the outside world, so after the circle is completed, the internal breath that flows back is imperceptibly condensed, and the same amount is also a little larger.
The little bit of growth is very little, but it is very precious, and it is the accumulation of this bit by bit, gathering sand into a tower, that can break through to the grandmaster.
Therefore, in the few days that he was protecting the Dharma for Shuanglong, he was cultivating almost every moment of his leisure.
"Alright, your injuries are almost healed, let's go, let's set off towards Sin'an County!" They are now in the mountains more than ten miles outside the deserted village, in order to prevent Duguce's revenge, after the injury is stabilized, they will run away overnight.
Seeing that Shuanglong was almost better, Tang Chen hurriedly urged them to go out, planning to go to Xin'an County, and take a look at the customs and customs here
- He will leave after the birthday party, intending to enjoy the beauty of this ancient time, and God knows how long he will have to breathe in the smog of the modern city......
"Senior brother, look, there's a big ship there!"
Listening to the exclamations of the two, Tang Chen turned around, sure enough, what a big ship! In his previous life, all he had seen were iron ships, and it was the first time he had seen such a huge wooden ship, no, it was a building ship.
The total length of the hull is nearly 20 zhang, there is a three-story wooden building on it, there are blades around the hull, the bow is away from a wooden pole, and a bright yellow flag is hung on it, and there is a big "Li" character on it.
"It can't be such a coincidence!" , Tang Chen thought to himself, there are many people surnamed Li in the world, but there is only one Li family who can have such a building and ship, and that is Li Yuan, who was called Tang Gaozu in later generations, and is now Tang Guogong Li Yuan in Taiyuan.
Of course, Li Yuan must not be in it, Tang Chen estimates that it is either Li Shimin or Li Jiancheng inside.
But according to the intelligence, Li Jiancheng was busy in Hedong to recruit capable people, how could he come over. Therefore, the only thing left is Li Shimin.
It's such a coincidence, Tang Chen was planning to meet this historical celebrity at some point, but he didn't expect to meet it now. "Is it transferred?" He thought to himself.
"Strong men over there, are you going to Xin'an? If so, why don't we get on the boat and have a few drinks? Not long after, when the boat was at their level, more than ten feet away, a clear question came from the boat.
Listening to the voice, it is only the year of the weak crown, at this age, the Li family only has servants except for Li Shimin, but in the life of inviting people, are the servants qualified to speak?
Then, the owner of this voice, nine times out of ten, is Li Shimin.
"We received the invitation of Wang Tong Daru to go to celebrate his birthday, since Your Excellency has warmly invited, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!"
After speaking, Tang Chen didn't wait for the person on the boat to answer, so he pulled Xu Ziling with his left hand and Kou Zhong with his right hand, and directly swept towards the building boat more than ten zhang away.
This is exactly when someone dozes off and someone sends a pillow, since you know that this is the Li family's ship, how can you not see Li Shimin, who created the prosperous era of Zhenguan?
He was still thinking about how to get on the boat and talk to Li Shimin, but he didn't think that he would invite him here.
"Good skill! Such a cultivator must not be a nameless person in the rivers and lakes, under Li Shimin, dare to ask the surnames of the three heroes! It was Li Shimin who spoke, and he saw that there were three young people with extraordinary temperaments on the shore, and they invited each other in line with the idea of recruiting talents.
After his answer, he wanted to ask someone to send a small boat to pick up the three of them, but he didn't expect to see Tang Chen's great skills, which really shocked him.
Tang Chen's figure flashed, and before entering the river, he stepped on a raised pebble, and in an instant, he took the two of them across a distance of seven or eight zhang.
And when he was about to descend, he touched the surface of the water with a touch of his toes, and he crossed over to the deck more than a foot above the water.
This set of actions directly made Li Shimin, who was thirsty for talent, become excited, and waved his hand silently, making the people who wanted to step forward to protect him retreat, and the heat in his eyes could be seen by almost everyone.
This world needs talents, but also masters!
"My name is Kou Zhong, he is my brother, his name is Xu Ziling!" Before Tang Chen could speak, Kou Zhong rushed to speak, it was the first time he was called a hero, and his eyes full of admiration directly made him fluttering.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce, this is my senior brother, he is one of the three sects in the world - a disciple of Ning Daoqi, his name is ......"
"Okay, in Xia Ningchen, I've seen Second Prince Li!" Looking at Kou Zhong's appearance, Tang Chen was drunk, and the most pitiful thing was that before he could say anything, Kou Zhong leaked his old bottom like pouring beans.
What a pig teammate! scolded in his heart, seeing that Kou Zhong hadn't understood his eyes, he wanted to introduce him to the way, so he hurriedly interrupted.
The eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy in front of him is Li Shimin, wearing brocade clothes, big ears, and a mighty figure, although he is still a little childish, he is an out-and-out beautiful man.
Well, first impressions, full marks!
Listening to Kou Zhong's sentence about Ning Daoqi's disciple, as well as Ning Chen's name of Ning Chen, Li Shimin's eyes lit up suddenly.
The heart said: "God help me!" He knew that his father was still struggling to seek help from the Taoists, and he met the Taoist heirs.
"It turned out to be a high-ranking disciple of Sanren Ning Dodge, and he was polite!" Bow directly.
"Where is it, I have always heard that Li Jiancheng, the son of the Li family, is brave and unparalleled, and the second son Li Shimin is both civil and military, and today I see that it is really worthy of its name!" The sedan chair was carried by everyone, who wouldn't say nice words, seeing Li Shimin giving face like this, Tang Chen was naturally full of flattery.
"Hehe, this is all praise under the rivers and lakes, don't count it!"
Li Shimin's face was full of shame, he is not a fledgling person, this sounds very cool, but he must also be modest, right? Otherwise, if others praise you, you will accept it calmly, where will the guest's face go?
"Look at my memory, how can you let the guests be outside, come into the house with me, come to someone, prepare a table, there are distinguished guests coming to the door!"
"Second brother, is that distinguished guest?"
At the table, several people were sitting down, and there was a beautiful sound from behind, like a pearl falling on a jade plate, extremely crisp! Tang Chen knew that this was Li Xiuning, and in the original book, the relationship between Kou Zhong and Li Xiuning was a little complicated.
Thinking of this, Tang Chen showed an interested look and carefully watched Kou Zhong's reaction!
"My mother!" ――
