At three o'clock on the third day, the four of them came to the "Zhizun Hall" on time.

"Twelve, how are you doing with your swordsmanship?" asked Xuan Ji.

"I'm working hard!" Zhong Qinghuo said tremblingly.

"Lao Jiu! What about you? refining and refining qi can form a fetus?"

"Back to the master, the inner dan has been married, and the fetus has not yet been completed. Xu Qingjiang bowed his head and replied.

"You two have to work hard! Seventeen is going to catch up!"

"Seventeenth Senior Brother, that's a divine talent, how can we compare?" Zhong Qinghuo said with a pout.

"Seventeen is a little better qualified. But people with better qualifications are nothing more than to practice faster, with average qualifications, maybe slowly, but the end and goal are the same, the story of the tortoise and rabbit race is the truth of the world, you two, don't be presumptuous. "Xuanji Taoist earnestly taught.

"What the master taught, the disciple kept it in mind!" Qinghuo Qingjiang replied in unison.

Xuanji Daoist then said: "Today I will start teaching the seventeen basic swordsmanship, you go over there and take a sword for each person, and then practice it from the beginning, and learn from the past." ”

"Yes!" the two replied in unison.

"The sword is the ancestor of the short soldier, the weapon of close combat, because it is light to carry, quick to use, and wears the look, so it is a necessary weapon for the world's vertical and horizontal battlefields and fighting and self-defense. But its Taoist art is profound, there are many kinds of swordsmanship, only there are twenty or thirty kinds of commonly used, thorn splitting and hanging lifting, cloud wiping frame with twisting, point collapse and pick wrist flowers, interception and slashing sweep. I'll start by picking out a few of the simplest demos for you. ”

The Xuanji Daoist practiced as he spoke.

"It's called a stabbing sword. This trick is called sword splitting. This trick is called a sword. This move is called Broken Sword. This trick is called a sword-flirting. This trick is called hanging sword. Do you see it?"

"See clearly!" said Qingtong in a loud voice.

"Then you do it again. The sword and the arm should be in a straight line. Splitting the sword, the arm shaft is bent to extended. Point the sword, stand the sword and raise the wrist, and reach the tip of the sword. Collapse the sword, sink the wrist to be powerful, and reach the tip of the sword. Pick up the sword, from the bottom up, close to the arc, force to reach the front of the sword body. Hanging sword, standing sword close to hanging out, force to the front of the sword. ”

The Xuanji Daoist watched the four disciples practice while correcting their deficiencies.

Next, he taught the six moves of cloud sword, wiping sword, cutting sword, cutting sword, frame sword, and piercing the sword, and connected these twelve moves together, with sword fingers on the basis of swordsmanship, plus some footwork, jumping, balance, rotation and other actions, synthesized two swordsmanship routines, and demonstrated them to the four people.

"Raise your hands with your feet, turn your waist and swing your arms, squat and turn around, lunge straight stab, turn back and split, lunge flat, lunge left tease, raise your knees and slash, turn back and stab, hang the sword straight stab, stab the sword in a virtual step, more than nine to one. ”

"Raise your hands with your feet, turn your waist and swing your arms, step flat with your arms, hang your sword and split down, take the sword in front of you, raise your knees and cut them off, lift your knees and stab them straight, turn around and collapse flat, rest your arms, raise your knees and lower your knees, and return one after nine. ”

......

"The sword has one tip and two edges, and the sword should be used at the tip of the sword, flat for piercing, and standing for thorns. Therefore, when practicing swords, we should concentrate our consciousness on the tip of the sword. To practice the sword well, the body must be spiritual, and the strength needs to be mastered well, and there must be rigidity and softness, and rigidity and softness are combined. The first strength of the swordsmanship to shake the wrist, the wrist strength must be rigid and not stiff, soft and can not be loosened, master the skill of throwing the wrist, and make the strength penetrate the tip of the sword. In this way, you can use it freely and give full play to your swordsmanship. ”

......

Li Qingtong experienced it with his heart and gradually mastered the essentials of this move.

"Let's practice these today!Seventeen!" the Xuanji Daoist shouted.

"The disciple is here!"

"In addition to the normal morning exercises and evening classes in the past few days, you should not practice anything else during the day, and concentrate on learning and practicing this sword technique. Practice one move at a time and slowly, don't try to be fast. It is necessary to experience it with your heart while practicing. ”

"Disciple remember!"

"Come back in three days!"

Three days later, at three o'clock, the four of them came to the "Zhizun Hall" again.

The Xuanji Taoist then taught swordsmanship.

"Our Qingyang swordsmanship, characterized by both fast and slow, rigid and soft, when practicing, the sword is required to go with the body, with the sword, and the form and the meaning must be combined, the meaning and the qi are combined, and the qi is in harmony with the gods. In the Liuhe, it also needs hands, eyes, body, law, and steps. Qingyang swordsmanship, quiet like a civet cat to wait for a mouse, like a dragon out of the water, in motion, the hand is divided into yin and yang, the body is hidden in the gossip, stepping on the nine palaces, the inner is in line with its qi, and the outside is in its shape, it is the treasure of my Qingyang Mountain, the secret law. ”

"Qingyang swordsmanship has a total of eight sets of sixty-four moves, and today I will teach you the first set, 'Plum Blossom Thousand Changes'. By the way, two days ago, you saw the three moves performed by your fourth senior brother with an air sword, right? Today, I will show you a full set. Qingshan, take my sword. ”

The disciples are so excited! Qingjiang and Qinghuo's swordsmanship were all taught by the fifth senior brother on behalf of the teacher, and they have never seen the master refining the sword, let alone the sword of the master! What does it look like?

I saw the fifth senior brother Liang Qingshan enter the inner room and walk out with a yellow wooden sword box, and when he opened it, it was a wooden sword. The three of them felt lost, and their eyes darkened.

"Don't underestimate this wooden sword!" Xuanji Daoist saw the confusion of the disciples, so he spoke again. "The avenue is simple, the big is rigid and soft, and the big weapon is invisible, after you become a first-class swordsman, even if you hold a branch, you can have the courage to be a husband and a man. ”

"Aoyama, draw your sword. Xuanji Daoist held a wooden sword in his hand and said to Qingshan.

Seeing a sword light, Liang Qingshan already had a sword in his hand. He made a move of raising his hands on his feet and waited for the enemy to meet him.

"A sword Hanmei!" Xuan Ji Dao sang, the sword came out with him, only to see the sword piercing, sitting on the plate and spreading his arms, stepping up to catch the sword, Ding Bu pointed forward, and the tip of the sword had reached Qingshan's abdomen. Qingshan was in a hurry, and hurriedly came up with a move "Bamboo Shadow Horizontal", wanting to pick up the master's sword.

"Look back and smile!" Xuanji Daoren's sharp sword allowed him to touch his wooden sword, and then shouted the second move, stepped back and raised his sword, turned around and went down independently, and then pointed at the opponent's lower abdomen. Aoyama hurriedly retreated and turned sideways, dodging his master's second sword.

"Sweeping a thousand armies!" I saw the Xuanji Daoist retreat and pierce the sword finger and come on foot. I had to jump and dodge the master's third move.

"Pear Blossom One Tree!" Aoyama jumped fast, but the sword of the head of Xuanji became faster, and the sweep turned into a vertical split, slashing at his head from above. Qingshan couldn't dodge anymore, so he could only raise his hand to stand his sword and use his own sword to block the master's wooden sword.

"Two goals!" Xuanji Daoist used a wooden sword, how could he touch him, just as he was setting up the sword, a cloud on his head swirled back, stretched out his arm and stabbed straight at Qingshan's belly again. Aoyama had no choice but to take two steps back.

"Red apricots out of the wall!" After taking two steps back and not standing firmly, he saw the Xuanji Daoist walking forward, sinking his wrist and exerting force, and the tip of the sword suddenly collapsed, reaching his heart. Qingshan has a "sword swirling cloud cover", spinning out a sword cloud, wanting to unscrew the master's wooden sword, so as to protect himself.

"A thousand plums bloom!" Xuanji Daoist's wrist spun sharply, the sword flower flew, and the point collapsed, the virtual reality was like an illusion, like a thousand plum blossoms, rushing towards his eyes, face and body, and he couldn't help but look panicked.

"A wisp of fragrance!" At the moment when Qingshan panicked, he suddenly felt that his white turban was picked open by the master's sword, and a strand of black hair suddenly spread out and fluttered in front of his forehead. The tip of Shizun's sword had stopped firmly above his head.

The three of them suddenly erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Qingshan returned the sword to the sheath, and bowed to the master: "Thank you for the mercy of the master's sword!"

Then he turned to face the three junior disciples and said in a loud voice: "You may only see it, this last move is to leave my head under the sword." In fact, before this, there were three times when the master was merciful under the sword, and if the master used a real sword instead of a wooden sword, I would have died three times ago. ”

"Qingshan!" Xuanji Daoist shouted with a solemn face.

"Disciple is here!" Qingshan hurriedly stood solemnly.

"The other seven sets of swordsmanship will be taught by you on behalf of the teacher, passing the sword is like passing the fist, and passing one set in ten days. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me. In the middle, I will also ask, consider and inspect at any time, and don't be slow to relax. ”

"The disciple will not dare! The disciple will strictly obey the teacher's orders!"

"Seventeen, in the days to come, we must follow the three senior brothers to study hard every day, experience every move with our hearts, guard against arrogance and rashness, and don't be greedy. These eight sets of swordsmanship are to be completed in three months and succeeded in six months. ”

"Disciple keep in mind the teachings of the master!" Li Qingtong said respectfully.

"Qingjiang, Qinghuo, you two must not be presumptuous. Qingjiang's light skills are unique among the disciples on the mountain, which can be called a must; Qinghuo's 'Thunder God Hammer' is smashed with one punch, and even your fifth senior brother does not dare to take it hard. These are your strengths. Continue to work hard, persevere, guard against arrogance and rashness, and you will eventually become a great tool. ”

Qingjiang and Qinghuo didn't expect that the master rarely passed on kung fu, but he still knew the two of them so well, and he paid so much attention to them, and they couldn't help but be moved in their hearts. The two shouted in unison:

"The disciples will keep in mind the teachings of the master! Practice three dogs in summer! Practice three nines in winter! Work hard! Live up to the high expectations of the master!"

"Qingshan, don't just care about them, relax your own exercises. ”

"Disciple won't. Aoyama said softly.
