Chapter 129: The Birthday Banquet (I)
When Gao Tian was resting in the room arranged for him by Uncle Jiu, he heard the familiar voice of the system again: "Congratulations to the host, you have completed the meritorious task - defeat the horse thief and save the town." Therefore, the host is rewarded with 5,000 merit points. I also hope that the host will make persistent efforts to complete more meritorious tasks and gain more merits. ”
Hearing the familiar voice of the system and the five thousand merit points, Gao Tian's originally somewhat sluggish spirit was suddenly lifted. Gao Tian thought that this was a meritorious task, and there would be a meritorious reward. However, Gao Tian thought that after killing all the horse thieves, he would have a reward for merit. However, he didn't expect that defeating the horse thief was even a merit task, and the merit points obtained were actually so many, which had exceeded the harvest of any of his previous merit tasks.
In this way, Gao Tian fell asleep in a mixture of fatigue and faint excitement. It was the best sleep he had slept in the three months he had traveled, and it was also the most restful sleep.
Gao Tian woke up, and the sky had just brightened. Looking at the hazy night, Gao Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly. After more than ten years of martial arts training, his work and rest time has formed a pattern, and he will automatically wake up when the time comes.
Gao Tian shook his head and came outside the room, but he happened to see Uncle Nine who was boxing, and the punch that Uncle Nine was fighting was Taijiquan, an internal boxing method.
The so-called Tai Chi does not go out for ten years, and Xingyi kills people in one year. Taijiquan is based on the traditional Chinese Confucianism, Taoism philosophy of Tai Chi, Yin and Yang dialectical concept as the core idea, set to nourish temperament, strengthen the body, technical confrontation and other functions as a whole, combined with the changes of the five elements of Yin and Yang that are easy to learn, Chinese medicine meridians, ancient guidance and breathing techniques to form a kind of internal and external cultivation, soft, slow, light, rigid and soft Han traditional boxing.
Taijiquan's subtle and introverted, continuous, soft and rigid boxing style, rapid and slow, flowing clouds and water, so that the practitioner's mind, qi, shape, and spirit gradually tend to the supreme realm of harmony, and its requirements for martial arts cultivation also make the practitioner improve their own quality while enhancing their physique, and enhance the harmony and harmony between man and nature, man and society.
Taijiquan is unique in terms of technique and distinctive characteristics. It requires static braking, overcoming rigidity with softness, avoiding reality and emptiness, leveraging strength, advocating that everything should be based on objectivity, living with others, and stagnation by oneself. "If he doesn't move, he will move first", "the last to strike, first to come", bring in the opponent, make him weightless and miss, or disperse and transfer the opponent's strength, take advantage of the weakness, and fight back with all his might.
With Gao Tian's current attainments in national arts, it can be seen that Uncle Nine has been practicing Taijiquan for many years, and has completely reached the realm of dark energy. This is still very rare for an immortal cultivator. Because immortal cultivators have their own training techniques, they rarely practice martial arts, even the national arts that are separated from martial arts.
At this time, Uncle Jiu's fist technique was about to end, and his footsteps slid back and forth on the ground, followed by a leap. The next moment, he stood in a clearing a few zhang away, and in the place where he had practiced boxing, a clear Tai Chi pattern appeared.
Seeing that Uncle Nine had finished work, Gao Tian hurriedly applauded.
Uncle Nine turned around, looked at Gao Tian and smiled proudly: "Xiaotian, get up so early." ”
"Hehe, I have been practicing martial arts for many years, and I have developed a habit. Moreover, if it weren't for my nephew and I getting up early, I wouldn't know that you actually have such a profound attainment in internal boxing, which is really amazing! Gao Tian hurriedly patted his ass.
After listening to Gao Tian's words, Uncle Nine shook his head and said with a rare smile: "I practice boxing to strengthen my body, not to fight with others. And after all, I have cultivated Qi training, and I am just strengthening my body and prolonging my life in terms of internal boxing. Ay! In the world of the end of the law, there is no way to the road! ”
After Gao Tian heard this, he had nothing to say. In this age of the end of the Dharma, it is the sorrow of any monastic! This is the general trend and cannot be changed.
Afterwards, Uncle Nine took Gao Tian to have breakfast together. There are not many dishes, but they are exquisite.
Uncle Nine smiled at this time and said, "Senior nephew, you came to me, you should have entertained you well, and you should have killed a chicken." But it's my birthday party in the evening, so let's just eat a little bit now, and when I have my birthday in the evening, we'll have a good meal. ”
"It's okay, in fact, I like to eat this kind of food." Gao Tian smiled, and said with a look full of indifference.
In the master's vein, people are very kind and good people, and they are awe-inspiring. But they also have a lot of ridiculous little characteristics, in addition to being cautious, there is a bigger characteristic, that is, stinginess. In this regard, Gao Tian had already prepared in his heart, so naturally there would be no surprise.
So at that moment, Uncle Jiu, Gao Tian and Ah Qiang besieged the small dishes in front of them, and after a while, they ate them clean.
After the meal, Ah Qiang went to prepare the birthday banquet, and Uncle Nine had a good chat with Gao Tian to understand the recent situation of Master Gao Tian. After that, Uncle Nine gave some teachings to Gao Tian, not only in terms of common sense of cultivation, but also in terms of knowledge and inner boxing, which benefited Gao Tian a lot.
When Uncle Nine and Gao Tian came back to their senses from their conversation, it was already evening. The two of them still didn't feel like they were having fun, but by this time, Cuong had already knocked on the door and walked in.
He looked inside with some probes, and then smiled at the two people sitting upright: "Master, junior brother, now that the birthday banquet outside is ready, let's hurry over." ”
"Let's go! It's not too early, so let's go over to the birthday party. Uncle Nine exhaled a mouthful of turbid breath in his chest and smiled at Gao Tian.
"Uncle Shi, please first, today is your birthday, don't miss the time." Gao Tian hurriedly got up and said.
"It's okay, don't worry, it's still too late, let's go." Uncle Nine nodded and said with a slight smile.
Then Uncle Nine was not polite and took the lead and walked out. At this time, some of the old rules were still very strict. Once you make a mistake, you may have a bad impression on your elders. For this, it is the greatest realization that Gao Tian came to this world. And Gao Tian's careful grasp of this point also played a considerable role in his future.
After that, the two of them went to the inn for the birthday banquet under the leadership of Ah Qiang, perhaps because of Uncle Jiu's birthday, at this time the entire inn was wrapped up by the people who invited Uncle Jiu, and it was already full of people, people came and went, people were full of voices, and it was very lively. When they saw Uncle Jiu, they all rushed to say hello, and they all congratulated Uncle Jiu, which shows that Uncle Jiu's popularity and prestige in this town are high.
