Volume 6 Chapter 38 The Sword of No Attack and No Battle
Li Xiaosen and Tang Xin, by the hot spring pool, were doing seemingly ambiguous but actually very serious teaching and learning, Li Xiaoqian looked around but couldn't find anything wrong, which made her a little uneasy at the same time-
Huaxia Mountain Gate, the world's campus is outside the world.
Yu Huayun was carrying a long sword and a small package, like a young Taoist priest who was about to go down the mountain in ancient times, standing on a platform close to the peak of Shiwai Mountain, looking back at Liuli: "Really don't you want to set off with me?"
In the past three years, Yuhuayun has not changed much, it can only be said that she is more feminine, she used to be long-legged and thin-waisted, and now of course she is still long-legged and thin-waisted, but she is no longer a "little Taoist" feeling, but a beautiful and refined female Taoist.
The kind of fairy spirit that makes people only dare to look at it from a distance, and the irresistible feminine charm are blended together to form a strange charm.
In the past three years, if there is anyone who has more popularity, suitors, and admirers than Li Xiaoqian, it is Yuhuayun.
"Nope. The man behind Yu Huayun replied calmly.
That is Liuli, and it is also the host of the Chinese Buddhist Temple today.
In the past three years, everyone has changed more or less, but the glass is different.
Except for the appearance of his expression and temperament when he chased Liu Xiaohui without heart and lungs, Liuli's body shape and appearance have not changed at all, it seems that time has stopped on him, and he stayed on the day Liu Xiaohui died.
Yu Huayun seemed to want to persuade a few words.
Liuli waved her hand and said with a smile: "Don't talk about me, it's you, you set off for Japan this time, be careful." But I'm curious, since you've decided to go a long time ago, why are you leaving now? I thought you'd want to learn some swordsmanship with that Tang Xin from the Sword Pavilion. ”
Listening to Ruri's words, Yu Huayun had been preparing to go to Japan for a long time and had certain plans.
"Tang Xin, ......" Yu Huayun sighed, as if he had thought of something in the past, and said helplessly, "Actually, I fought with her once." ”
"Oh, is there such a thing?" Liuli was very surprised, if Yu Huayun and Tang Xin really fought each other, it would definitely be a big event that shook the professional circle, how could he not even know himself.
Yu Huayun said: "Because the result of fighting that guy is that there is no result." I can't say it clearly, but really, fighting with Tang Xin is far from what you imagined, what kind of strong collision of Sanqing Sword and Heart Sword Technique, it is not like that at all! Fighting with her is very, very boring. ”
Speaking of this, Yu Huayun paused, shook his head and said: "Tang Xin is the kind of person who will not take the initiative to fight with anyone no matter what, nor will she take the initiative to show her heart swordsmanship to anyone, unless the sun comes out of the west, or she has some special purpose." ”
"Okay, don't say much, the team led by Xiao Qian has already set off, and a few days ago, the support army sent by our Huaxia also set off under the leadership of the wind chimes. I can't afford to delay any longer. ”
Feather Cloud waved his hand, soared into the air, and the whole person turned into a blue-purple thunderbolt, and disappeared into the distant sky in an instant, super fast!
"Isn't it a powerhouse who won't take the initiative to fight with people or show his swordsmanship no matter what?" Liuli muttered softly as she stared in the direction Feather Cloud had left.
After a moment he regained his composure, withdrew his gaze, and turned to head down the mountain.
......
......
At the same time, Japan, Kenkan.
By the hot spring pool, Tang Xin, who would never take the initiative to show his swordsmanship in the mouth of Yuhuayun, showed his heart swordsmanship to Li Xiaosen, and then stood quietly in place, patiently waiting for Li Xiaosen to feel and digest it carefully.
"I ...... Not very clear. Li Xiaosen was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.
"It's not that I don't understand, but I can't believe it. Tang Xin smiled, and then couldn't help but sigh, "Looking at Bentangjun's expression, I know that you have understood, what kind of sword my sword is, this comprehension is really amazing." ”
Li Xiaosen smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, don't compliment me, I'm not humble, but really...... I think it's weird. ”
The kind of momentum similar to the sword intent of the Great Snow Mountain that Tang Xin showed at the beginning just now, Li Xiaosen could completely understand it, there was no problem, but he was extremely amazed by the strength of the other party's oppressive force.
If he really wants to fight face-to-face, Li Xiaosen is also fearless, but he doesn't want to fight with Tang Xin inexplicably, so he can't bear to attack, instead of not daring to take the initiative.
But what happened to the sudden convergence after the heyday?
All the oppressive force disappeared in an instant, as if it had never existed.
If Tang Xin was said to have forcibly united the power of heaven and earth a moment ago, he oppressed himself and forced himself to make a move.
At that moment, Tang Xin was just the opposite, she seemed to melt into heaven and earth, disappeared, and disappeared!
The result of this is that even if Li Xiaosen wants to make a move on her, he can't do it.
This is something that Li Xiaosen has never experienced: he found that he could not attack a person!!
"Can't win against anyone on the heavenly list, but won't you lose to anyone......" Li Xiaosen recalled Tang Xin's description of herself just now, and vaguely understood something, but she really couldn't believe it.
Because if it's really what you think, it's really ...... It's incredible!
Looking at Tang Xin's eyes seriously, Li Xiaosen asked, "So your heart swordsmanship, your heart swordsmanship, is not lethal?"
"Well, no. ”
"Instead of forcing the opponent to take the initiative to shoot at you, but making the opponent unable to make a move?"
"Yes. ”
"And then, you make the opponent unable to attack, and then what about waiting for the opportunity to break the crack when the opponent can't attack?"
"It's okay, after blocking your attack, I don't have a follow-up so-called then. ”
"That's that...... Your swordsmanship, your swordsmanship...... Isn't it ——?" Li Xiaosen's face was full of weirdness.
Tang Xin pursed his lips and laughed, nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, just as Bentang Jun thought, my heart swordsmanship has no lethality, strictly speaking, it does not belong to the 'combat swordsmanship' at all." ”
Although he had already thought of it, when he really got this answer from Tang Xin's mouth, Li Xiaosen couldn't help but be silent for a while.
After a long pause, he spoke again with some dryness: "I still need more explanations, otherwise it's really ...... I can't understand why such a swordsmanship exists. ”
What are you kidding about any swordsmanship that doesn't have any lethal power?
The Japanese sword hall has been inherited for so many years, is it because of this sword that can only be used for self-protection?
Heart swordsmanship, isn't it a sword of defense and counterattack, but a real sword that does not fight?!
Tang Xin sighed, and seemed to be a little excited: "Bentang Jun can't understand it at all, the essence of this sword...... Okay, I'll tell you about it. She dissipated the water sword in her hand and sat down again, her little feet dangling in the pool water, and at the same time motioned for Li Xiaosen to sit down as well.
Li Xiaosen sat next to Tang Xin according to his words, and he could smell the faint fragrance on the girl's hair, and there was a feeling of woody or sandalwood, which made people's hearts slowly calm down.
"In fact, the original appearance of the Heart Sword Technique is the appearance I just cast, the sword of no attack, the sword of no battle, is exactly the founder of the Heart Sword Technique, the mind at that time. ”
Tang Xin said, "In the words of the founder, forcing people to attack is actually a kind of attack. And whether it is taking the initiative to play the sword, or forcing the opponent to take the initiative to take the sword, in fact, they all fall into inferiority. The real heart swordsmanship is a swordsmanship that does not attack oneself and makes the opponent unable to attack. This is the incomprehension of the heart swordsmanship. ”
Li Xiaosen thought about it, and had to admit that this was indeed a kind of "insolvability" that was completely different from court swordsmanship.
In fact, to put it bluntly: I don't move you, and you don't want to touch me.
If Li Xiaosen knew Yu Huayun's evaluation of Tang Xin, "The battle with Tang Xin was very, very boring", he would definitely feel the same way.
It's a little funny to think about it, Yu Huayun's thunderous Sanqing swordsmanship, against Tang Xin's heart swordsmanship who doesn't give you a chance to play the sword - will the two of them just stare at each other face to face?
"Bentangjun should know that my sword hall originated in the Tang Dynasty in ancient China, but in fact, what many people don't know is that the founder of the sword hall is not only a top swordsman, but also a monk. Tang Xin said.
"Because of the compassion of the Buddhist family, this 'sword without fighting' was created?" Li Xiaosen said in his heart, even if it is the heavenly supernatural power of the Huaxia Buddhist Temple, it is not so Buddhist.
Huaxia Buddhist temples emphasize "not killing", but they still have to "subdue demons and eliminate demons".
Therefore, the means of arhats in Buddhist temples are mostly subdued techniques such as capture and banning.
In Li Xiaosen's opinion, this is enough Buddhism, but compared with Tang Xin's swordsmanship, it seems that he is still ashamed.
"So why the hell did you want to create such a unique swordsmanship?" Li Xiaosen couldn't help but ask.
“...... Actually, I don't fully understand. ”
Tang thought for a moment before he said softly, "I only read it in the notes left by the founder, and the lord seems to think that what we need most in Japan is not the sword of battle, and if we want true peace and peace, we must learn to restrain our fighting spirit. Don't think about attacking, don't think about forcing others to go to war, don't do things, that's the way to true peace in our land. ”
Li Xiaosen listened thoughtfully.
Although he disguised himself as Sakurai Hondo, no matter how vivid the disguise of the "Thousand Illusion Masquerade" was, after all, he could not completely substitute himself into the position of a Japanese swordsman in a short period of time, so Li Xiaosen vaguely understood what it meant after thinking about the future and fate of this land by the Japanese sages, but his understanding was limited after all.
A great philosopher once said that what people in a region lack the most, what will be most emphasized in the beliefs of that place.
Therefore, in ancient India, where the caste system was rampant, a Buddhist family was born that emphasized the equality of all beings.
In ancient China in the chaotic Spring and Autumn Period, Confucianism was born that emphasized rules and etiquette.
And in Japan, the founder of Shinkenjutsu emphasized so much that "peace can only be achieved without fighting or attacking", because he foresaw something?
Li Xiaosen felt something, but he had no way of knowing what the real situation was.
Originally, it was just a teaching of heart swordsmanship, but the atmosphere at the moment was a little strange, the teaching itself was not very difficult, Li Xiaosen really didn't brag about himself, in terms of comprehension, he still had no problem, he had personally experienced Tang Xin's heart swordsmanship at close range, and it was also the most original heart swordsmanship, Li Xiaosen understood what kind of swordsmanship it was.
"It's just that this Tang Xin, why do you want to teach me heart swordsmanship?" Li Xiaosen couldn't grasp Tang Xin's psychology a little.
Although the other party just said that the purpose of teaching heart swordsmanship is to let Li Xiaosen, the "Sakurai Hondo", better face Wang Hao of Huaxia Mountain Gate, Li Xiaosen also believed it just now.
But looking back now, Li Xiaosen always feels that there seems to be something hidden in this.
I don't know if it's Li Xiaosen's illusion, he always feels that Tang Xin has an indescribable look in his gaze, not calm and confident, but ...... It seems to have some kind of suspicion, apprehension, and even helplessness.
"Okay, I've finished teaching the Heart Sword Technique, I hope it will help you. Even if you can't win against Wang Hao at that time, at least you can guarantee that you won't lose, right?"
Tang Xin took a breath, his eyes returned to the absolutely calm and confident Tang Xin, and said softly, "Then, now come with me to see the real pavilion master, his old man, in fact, he ordered me to take you there immediately, after delaying for so long, his old man should be impatient." ”
Although all the affairs of the Sword Pavilion are handled by Tang Xin, after all, she has not officially taken over the position of the master of the Sword Pavilion, strictly speaking, she is only the acting owner of the Pavilion.
The real hall owner is the one who participated in the Holy Remains War, the War of the Unsaints, and the civil war three years ago, and still insisted on surviving, and today the Daywalker Alliance, about the only old generation figure who still retains considerable combat effectiveness.
To put it simply, this pavilion owner used to be a generational and a level of demi-saint with Qin Lan!
The demi-saint, which was once an unattainable level in Li Xiaosen's mind, is now not particularly far away.
Three years ago, Liu Changsheng was a half-saint-level combat power, and with the help of the "bombers", he could even clash with Qin Lan, who had just entered the holy realm, and remain undefeated.
Today, three years later, all the Heavenly List powerhouses, including Tang Xin in front of him, are actually standing at the peak of the sixth level of the profession, and they are only one step away from the half-saint realm.
"Okay, then the owner of the hall will lead the way. Li Xiaosen said.
"I'm the acting owner. Tang Xin laughed, "When you see the owner of the pavilion himself, don't get confused and call it wrong." ”
"Yes, Acting Lord. Li Xiaosen said seriously, deliberately biting the word agent very hard.
Tang Xin couldn't help but wonder: "There is no need to emphasize 'agency' so much...... Alright, let's go. ”
......
......
The residence of the Chinese people.
Li Xiaoqian didn't see anything unusual, thinking that she was too tired, and had a delusion, it happened that His Royal Highness the Ocean in North American Demon Hunting City said that he was going to hold a small party, so that everyone could relax a little before the quarterfinals, Li Xiaoqian said in her heart that she would take a break, so she put aside the things about her cultivation and where her brother was for the time being, and set off for the station of the North American people.
At this time, Li Xiaoqian was suddenly stunned, and saw two figures from a distance, walking towards the depths of the Sword Pavilion, it was Tang Xin and Li Xiaosen.
A few days ago, when Li Xiaoqian was still suspicious of the identity of "Sakurai Hondo", it is estimated that she couldn't help but follow up when she saw this scene.
Now, she was just a little strange, and she quickly withdrew her gaze.
Walking into the party scene, the atmosphere is warm, but not noisy, everyone is a top professional, with strong restraint, and the current environment is not suitable for too noisy, right?
It was a pleasant moonlit night, but at some point, thick clouds obscured the moon and a large area of starlight.
The Sword Pavilion is almost entirely old wooden buildings, but at the deepest point is a large stone hall, the walls and floor are tightly seamed, as if it was carved out of a huge stone, rather than being built brick by brick.
The main hall was empty, except for a long sarcophagus in the middle.
On the sarcophagus lay an old man.
His skin was full of wrinkles, but his body was still strong and fit, and his eyes were closed on his old face, although the years had left too many marks on this face, it could still be seen that this old man was definitely a top beautiful man when he was young.
Even if he is old and dying, there is still an indelible feminine beauty between his eyebrows and eyes, which is in stark contrast to his majestic and masculine figure.
At one point, the old man opened his eyes.
He didn't get up, he still lay quietly on the sarcophagus, his lips moved slightly, and then ...... The corners of his lips curled slightly, as if he was smiling.
If anyone else had been present and had come close enough, they would have heard the old man whispering something just now.
The phrase is, "Here it is, my dear...... Komori-kun. ”
