Volume 1 Rebirth Chapter 12 The True Meaning of the Sword

After Ji Wuyue left, Ling Yu stood up from the position of the sect master, walked in front of the drunkard and said in a strange manner: "Senior brother, your disciple is not simple. ”

The drunkard took a sip of wine nonchalantly, and said with a proud look on his face: "Of course my disciple is not simple, but he doesn't have that talent. ”

"Oh, it seems that Senior Brother knows about your disciple Zhou Tianyu?" Ling Yu said with a deliberate look of surprise.

The drunkard showed a look of impatience and said, "Senior brother, what are you looking for me?" Hurry up, if it's okay, I'll leave first. ”

Looking at the drunkard's performance, Ling Yu sighed and said, "Senior brother, after so many years, can't you change your temper?"

The drunkard grabbed the wine gourd on his waist, took a few big sips of wine, and said with a smile: "Haven't I always been like this for so many years? Why should I change it? Don't you think it's more chic?"

Although the drunkard spoke freely, a trace of confusion could be seen in his eyes.

Ling Yu could only shake his head, sighed and said, "Senior brother, I know that incident hit you really hard, and she hurt you deeply, but more importantly, now, we should all live for the present, not live in our past." ”

"Enough, if you're looking for me just to say these things, then there's nothing more to say, senior brother, take your leave!"

Ling Yu wanted to continue, but was interrupted by the drunkard's somewhat annoyed words.

The drunkard was about to walk towards the door, when Ling Yu spoke again: "Okay, junior brother, I came to you today mainly for the disciple you accepted. ”

The drunkard was halfway through before he stopped and turned to look at Ling Yu.

"What's wrong with Zhou Tianyu?" This is the first time that an alcoholic has called Zhou Tianyu's name.

Ling Yu glanced at the drunkard and saw that his mood had regained his calmness, so he spoke: "Just now, I found out all about the battle between Zhou Tianyu and Ji Wuyue. ”

Hearing this, the drunkard's face suddenly turned ugly, and he glared at Ling Yu angrily and said, "Senior brother, as the head of a sect, you didn't expect to do such a thing!"

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Senior brother, listen to me finish speaking. This Zhou Tianyu can be on par with Ji Wuyue, don't you think there is a problem?"

The drunkard's figure paused slightly, and then left the main hall of the Guanshan Sect without looking back.

"My disciple, I will be in charge, so I won't bother my senior brother. ”

After speaking, the drunkard quickened his pace and left the main hall of the Guanshan Sect.

Ling Yu was the only one in the empty hall, and he sighed, he had no way to make up for his junior brother, or he couldn't make up for it.

Because what happened in the past was that he Ling Yu was sorry for his little junior brother, and he was also sorry for the person that the little junior brother liked.

The drunkard walked up to Zhou Tianyu, took a sip of wine, and his face returned to its previous appearance.

"Stinky boy, you have a lot of skills, I heard that you have fought with Ji Wuyue's little guy, and you are on par?" the drunkard looked at Zhou Tianyu with a strange expression and said.

Listening to what his master said, Zhou Tianyu's heart was helpless, this was clearly an interrogation.

Zhou Tianyu smiled bitterly and said, "Master, where did you hear about it, just with the strength of my first realm of qi refining, Master, your old man thinks I can fight with Senior Brother Ji Wuyue?"

The drunkard didn't speak, and spread his hands, meaning to let Zhou Tianyu continue.

"Ahem!"

Zhou Tianyu coughed lightly twice and continued:

"Actually, here's the thing, Senior Brother Ji Wuyue saw that I was practicing the 'Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship', and felt that the 'Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship' I performed was a little different, so he suppressed his strength in the first realm of qi refining and competed with me in swordsmanship. But in the end, I still lost to him. Of course, it was because I lacked the true qi in my body that I admitted defeat!"

After listening to Zhou Tianyu's narration, the drunkard probably knew what happened in his heart, and in terms of process, Zhou Tianyu was indeed on par with Ji Wuyue.

The drunkard looked at Zhou Tianyu with a strange face and said, "Stinky boy, you have a draw with Ji Wuyue's "Qinglian Sword Technique" with the "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship"? ”

Zhou Tianyu deliberately told these things to the drunkard, on the one hand, because Ji Wuyue had experienced it personally, and he couldn't hide it if he wanted to. On the other hand, if Zhou Tianyu wants to hide his strength, he must find a place where he can show himself, give full play to his advantages, and show his excellence that is different from ordinary people, so that it is easier to counteract the suspicions of others.

"Master, your old man is taking a good look!"

Zhou Tianyu took five steps back, pulled out the long sword on his waist and performed the "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship".

The long sword turned around in his hand, and Zhou Tianyu's figure suddenly slammed forward, stabbing forward with a fierce momentum, the first style of "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship" - stabbing

There are no flashy moves, just the most basic stabs, piercing everything just to attack the target.

The drunkard's eyes lit up, Zhou Tianyu did perform "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship", but he understood a trace of artistic conception from Zhou Tianyu's moves, which was the artistic conception of the sword.

The second style of "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship" - splitting

The long sword in Zhou Tianyu's hand was raised high, and then it slashed straight down, as if it was split on a wooden stake, like a broken bamboo, everything was like flowing clouds and water, smooth and natural.

The drunkard's eyes narrowed slightly: "This is the split in the "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship"? Yes, the long sword is based on itself, the body and the sword are combined, the sword is in harmony with the will, and this sword is natural. ”

The third style of "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship" - chopping

The long sword that slashed straight down, when it reached a certain height, Zhou Tianyu's wrist turned, turned the vertical split into a horizontal split, and then withdrew Zhou Tianyu's hand, cut it diagonally, and stopped at just the right position.

Chopping and slashing go hand in hand, but they are completely independent, which is why many people use chopping and slashing as the same move.

But there is an essential difference between chopping and chopping, that is, pause, pause refers to pause, the timing of pause, the degree of pause, all determine the power and effect of chopping.

When Zhou Tianyu completely performed the "Thirteen Styles of Swordsmanship", the drunkard took two steps forward, and his cloudy eyes flashed with excitement.

"Good boy, I have realized the true meaning of the sword so quickly, haha! I am worthy of being my disciple!" he said, and the drunkard grabbed the wine gourd from his waist again, and took a few big sips.

Zhou Tianyu looked at his drunkard master, and said calmly: "Master, how is it? The disciple didn't embarrass you!"

Seeing his apprentice, the joke made a joke, and the drunkard made a blank face and said, "Stinky boy, I haven't been in shape all day!"

"Hahaha!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the drunkard himself laughed, and said with a smile: "It seems that my vision is still good, and I have selected such a disciple with kendo talent, not bad, not bad, I actually comprehended the true meaning of the sword!"

"The true meaning of the sword?" Zhou Tianyu said as he looked at the drunkard puzzled.

The drunkard took another sip of wine: "Ah~ This wine is really a good thing." ”

The drunkard patted his precious wine gourd and said: "Weapons, just a tool to show force, the important thing is the person who uses the weapon itself, and the sword is no exception, but it is not so easy to use the sword well! ”

"Tut-tut, I really can't figure out how you stinky boy did it, it's only been a few days, and you've already comprehended the true meaning of the sword. The drunkard tilted his head and looked at Zhou Tianyu with strange eyes.

The true meaning of the sword, this is Zhou Tianyu when he was in the spirit world, he had already realized it, at that time, because of his low qualifications, he spent more time practicing swords, and after coming and going, he figured out his own way of using the sword.

"Maybe~ Maybe it's my talent, it's better~ After practicing so casually, I realized the true meaning of the sword that your old man said! hehe~" Zhou Tianyu deliberately pretended to be stupid and said.

The drunkard's eyes widened: "Practice casually, the true meaning of the sword, hum~ If you let Ji Wuyue's kid hear this, you have to be anxious with you! He is talented, and he is obsessed with swords, I guess you will be in trouble in the future!"

Looking at the drunkard's schadenfreude look, Zhou Tianyu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, this senior brother Ji Wuyue's character should be good, but he is too obsessed with swordsmanship, otherwise it would be impossible to see Zhou Tianyu, a new disciple practicing swords, so he would have asked him to learn.

Zhou Tianyu smiled bitterly, and could only silently pray in his heart that Ji Wuyue would not entangle himself in the future.

The drunkard suddenly said, "Do you know why I came to you today?"

Looking at the serious drunkard, Zhou Tianyu's heart suddenly felt uncomfortable, thinking of the things that the master asked him about swordsmanship before, and asked tentatively:

"Master, you came to me because of the exchange between me and Senior Brother?"

The expression on the drunkard's face did not fluctuate at all, and he said lightly: "That's right, it was because of your competition with Ji Wuyue today that I came to you." ”

Zhou Tianyu is a smart person, of course he can guess this, but he doesn't understand, how could his master know about his competition with Ji Wuyue, could it be that Ji Wuyue said it?

"Are you wondering, how did I know this?"

Zhou Tianyu nodded and said, "Did Senior Brother tell you?"

The expression on the drunkard's face did not fluctuate at all, and he shook his head and said, "I can tell you that Ji Wuyue's kid doesn't know about this matter. ”

Looking up at the sky, the drunkard's eyes became a little misty, pondered for a moment, and continued:

"In a sect, it is a good thing to have a disciple with great potential, but the disciple is too outstanding at the beginning, which will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the sect. Your mediocre performance when you joined the sect is completely out of proportion to the talent you are showing now, and it is natural that you have become the object of suspicion of the sect. But don't worry, no matter what happens, you will always be my apprentice, and Master will stand behind you!"

Zhou Tianyu thought to himself: "My performance has really attracted the attention of the sect, but everything is expected! All Zhou Tianyu has to do is attract attention. ”
