Chapter 382: A Gentleman Keeps Improving Himself
"There's no need to be so nervous, I'm here to pick up Hong Yi to go home, and it's not too early, so I'll leave. ”
Xia Yang waved his hand again, but before leaving, he also reminded: "By the way, since this place has been discovered, you better move out of this place as soon as possible, so as not to be found by the people of the imperial court." ”
"Yes, the old man knows. Tu Lao's heart sank, knowing that the other party was telling the truth, and hurriedly responded respectfully.
"Hong Yi, let's go. Xia Yang turned around and saw a little reluctance on his face, so he said: "You don't have to be sad like a child, say goodbye today, and see you again in the future." ”
"Yes, father-in-law!" Hong Yi nodded, and then said goodbye to Bai Ziyue, Tu Lao and others.
"Brother Xiao Yi, you have to remember us. ”
A few little foxes were reluctant.
"I won't forget it. ”
Hong Yi waved his hand and turned away, not wanting them to see his reddened eyes, before following Xia Yang away.
......
After returning to Yujing, Xia Yang could see that Hong Yi was not in high spirits, and it seemed that his mind was still stuck in the valley of Xishan.
However, he didn't care at all, and after taking Hong Yi to his Jingbian Hou Mansion, he said to him: "Hong Yi, it's rare for me to go back to Beijing, this time I specially ask the emperor to come back to see you before your Enke, and talk about the family together, so you can stay in my mansion during this time." As for the Hongfu side, I have already sent someone to greet your father, he is a master of science, attaches great importance to morality, you are my righteous son, and I haven't seen him for many years, even if he is dissatisfied, there is no reason to object, you can stay here for a while. ”
"Thank you, father-in-law. Hong Yi bowed and hesitated for a moment before asking in a cautious tone: "Father-in-law, you should ...... Are you really going back to Beijing for me?"
Although Xia Yang had already sent back the letter, he couldn't help but suspect that he was just a concubine of the Marquis of Wuwen's mansion, and he had never had a status in the mansion, and it was hard to believe that a big man like Jingbianhou would come back specifically for him, an insignificant little person.
Although he worshipped the other party as his father-in-law when he was a child, in the past ten years, Xia Yang has ignored him, and has never even appeared. Almost no one in the outside world knew that the two of them had such a relationship, if it weren't for the letter he received earlier, and the jade plate he had always wore, he would have forgotten that he still had a stepfather.
"You don't believe it, think I never seem to care about you, how can you come back for you all of a sudden?"
Xia Yang couldn't guess his thoughts, and said indifferently: "Not caring doesn't mean not paying attention, if I tell you that my father-in-law has actually been paying attention to you all these years, and I also know your situation in the Hou Mansion, can you believe it?"
Hearing his words, Hong Yi couldn't help but be taken aback. Stepfather...... You've been paying attention to me?
"My father-in-law knows your situation, but I don't care about it, not because I don't care about you, on the contrary, my father-in-law just wants to sharpen you, wants you to grow up as soon as possible, and by the way, let you recognize the faces of some people. ”
Xia Yang looked at him quietly: "Your identity, no matter how you say it, you are also the son of Hongfu, the son of his Master Hong, you don't even let you learn martial arts, and it is so difficult to study." Thinking about what happened to you in Hongfu, you already know what kind of person your father is, after so many years, if he is a little bit of a loving father, he shouldn't let you live like this. ”
Hong Yi bowed his head and was silent, it was about his father Hong Xuanji, under the constraints of this strict Daqian Dynasty and Wulun Gangchang, he couldn't say much.
Xia Yang didn't continue to say, some things can be stopped at the point, he didn't want to take care of the housework of Hong Xuanji and Hong Yi's father and son.
"In short, this seat is not to provoke your father and son, and you will know all these things one day. The father-in-law only gives you one sentence, and the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement, and you should keep it in mind. ”
He stood with his hands in his hands, and after admonishing him, he said lightly: "A temporary ordeal will only make you more tenacious, as long as you continue to improve yourself, he will become a great weapon one day!"
"Gentleman...... To strive for self-improvement?"
When Hong Yi heard this, he was immediately shocked, and his face showed an indescribable excitement.
Xia Yang's expression was as usual, and he said calmly: "Now that you have grown up, there is no need to have any scruples, if someone is difficult for you in the future, you will report it as your father's name, even if it is your father Hong Xuanji, your father-in-law can also take responsibility for you." ”
"Thank you, father!"
In addition to being excited and excited, Hong Yi had a feeling in his heart that he couldn't believe that this was true, and hurriedly thanked Xia Yang.
If what his father-in-law said is true, from now on, he will have an extremely stable backer, and he will no longer need to fear anyone. Even if he was the Lady Zhao in the Mansion of the Marquis of Wuwen, how could he have obtained his father-in-law, the Marquis of Jingbian of the Great Qian Dynasty? With the name of his father-in-law, he could calmly gain fame, practice martial arts and cultivation in an upright manner, and make meritorious contributions in the future, increase his official rank, correct his mother's name, and be crowned a lady, and be crowned a king!
Xia Yang smiled faintly, the reason why he accepted Hong Yi as his son and told him this was that he hoped that he could write the amazing classic "Book of Changes" as soon as possible, and that sentence just now was believed to be enough to inspire him greatly.
Next, Xia Yang recruited the housekeeper in the house, and directly took him down to settle down and rest first.
Under the arrangement of the housekeeper, Hong Yi directly lived in the best courtyard of the Jingbian Hou Mansion, and all the utensils were the best, this kind of treatment was simply something he had never enjoyed in the Hong Mansion for more than ten years.
"Young Master Yi, Master Hou has explained, in the future, whether he is in the mansion or not, all resources can be called by you, if you have any needs, you can directly order the old slave or other subordinates. ”
After the steward had arranged everything, he took his subordinates to retire.
After the housekeeper left, Hong Yi looked at this magnificent house, and at the same time, his heart was surging, and at the same time, he also had a dream-like feeling.
It took him a long time before he sat down at the huge, antique desk, and took out the two "Martial Classics" and "Tao Classics" that the fox clan had given him from his package.
"Although I saw my stepfather when I was a child, my impression has long been blurred, and today is the first time I have really met my stepfather!"
Hong Yi thought while flipping through the book: "His old man's age seems to be much younger than his father's, and I think it's because of his advanced cultivation and proper maintenance. Moreover, the words and deeds of Father Guan Yi's words and deeds are full of freedom and openness, which is completely different from his father's deep-minded and deep aura of the city!"
His mind was a little chaotic, and he couldn't concentrate on the martial scriptures, and from his trembling hands, it could show that his heart was not calm at the moment.
But now, he can finally practice martial arts openly. In an instant, he thought of many scenes in the past, thought of his mother's humiliation and death, and thought of the suffering he suffered in the Wuwen Marquis Mansion because of his low status, and he couldn't even learn the family martial arts, not even as an illegitimate child, and was bullied by the maids in the house...... But with the appearance of his stepfather, he can finally raise his eyebrows.
"My father-in-law is respected as the first person in the Great Dry Martial Arts, and his martial arts cultivation is still above my father's, so it shouldn't be a problem to instruct me to cultivate this martial arts!"
Thinking of the end, his heart perked up, and he finally concentrated on it.
It wasn't until late at night that he put down the martial arts, blew out the candles, and planned to meditate and cultivate for a night, and early tomorrow morning, he would go to ask his father-in-law for advice.
......
The next morning, Xia Yang, who was meditating in the courtyard, saw Hong Yi coming over with a thick book from a distance, first asked him for a while, and then asked him: "Father-in-law, I want to learn martial arts, but there is a paragraph in this martial arts book given by Mr. Bai that I still don't understand, can I ask my father-in-law to give me some guidance?"
Xia Yang slowly opened his eyes, glanced at him, and closed them again: "It's a good thing to want to learn martial arts, you ask." ”
Hong Yi opened the martial arts scripture in his hand, pointed to the paragraph with the commentary of the Yinyue Zen Master, and asked him: "Father-in-law, there is a Yinyue Zen Master in this martial arts scripture who commented that practicing martial arts does not know the tricks, after all, the body cannot be sanctified, nor can it understand the mystery of the body, one of the acupoints of the human body, such as the stars in the sky, the gods of heaven and earth live in it, if someone can understand the cultivation of the stars in the sky, then the gestures, the power is endless, the dragon is thrown, such as the Taoist Yang God's fusion of the gods of detachment, to reach the realm of human immortals. But the child doesn't know what the so-called gods of heaven and earth mean, and there are human immortals, does it refer to the highest level of martial arts?"
"Originally, you didn't come to ask for advice, and my father-in-law was also going to start teaching your martial arts, since you have this question, then I will explain it to you!"
Subsequently, Xia Yang explained in detail: "The so-called acupuncture points in the body are the great secrets of the human body, containing infinite mysteries, corresponding to the stars in the sky, the so-called heaven and earth are a large universe, and the human body is a small universe, and the acupuncture points in the human body are like the stars in the universe." When a martial arts practitioner reaches the realm of martial arts, he begins to comprehend the fist intent, condense the fist intent into the subtleties, sense the acupoints in the body, and open them, so that he can cultivate incredible supernatural powers and achieve immortals among people!"
After getting Xia Yang's explanation, Hong Yi's inner doubts were finally solved, and he slowly chewed on his father-in-law's words, trying to imprint every word Xia Yang said just now into the depths of his heart.
"Ah Yi, just take a look at this martial scripture, it's okay to understand some of the basics of cultivation, but don't learn the boxing skills in it. Xia Yang said indifferently.
"Father-in-law, why is this?" Hong Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"Because this "Martial Arts" in your hand is simply bullshit and worthless!"
Xia Yang sneered: "For the sake of their own rule, the Daqian royal family has many mistakes and omissions in it, whether it is the "Martial Classics" or the "Tao Sutra", there are many mistakes and omissions in it, concealing and deleting many key points, ordinary people don't understand the taboos, and they can only practice the martial arts or Taoism inside, and they can only go crazy and go crazy, even if they don't die, they will be crippled!"
Hearing him say this, Hong Yi immediately thought of the time when he practiced the "Pagoda Visualization Out of the Shell Method" in the valley before, and his soul was out of his body. If it weren't for the timely rescue of the little foxes, I am afraid that he would have been scattered and turned into a living dead by that time.
Thinking of this, he immediately believed his father-in-law's words, in the shell method, there was a lack of the most critical taboo reminder, ordinary people learn this method, if they don't get started, if they enter the door, according to the method in the "Tao Sutra" to practice, there is only one way to die!
"It's just vicious!"
In an instant, a layer of sweat broke out on Hong Yi's back, and he immediately understood that since there were such vicious traps in the "Tao Sutra", then the "Martial Scripture" would naturally be no exception.
"Don't worry, as my Xia Yang's righteous son, if you really want to learn martial arts, I won't let you learn mainland goods like the "Martial Arts". ”
Xia Yang opened his eyes and stood up: "Today for my father, I will teach you a set of 'Baji Boxing', this set of boxing methods was learned when I was still at the end of the year, and now after I fuse the Eight Directions Miracle Skills, gradually deduce and improve, it is the world's first-class foundation boxing method, even if it is the top two sets of basic boxing methods in the Great Zen Temple, 'Bull Demon Powerful Boxing' and 'Tiger Demon Bone Boxing' are far from comparable, come, first make a move with me." ”
After speaking, he made a posture of holding Dan and sitting on his hips, while explaining: "All martial arts in this world are based on training meat, tendons, and skin membranes, and then to bones, organs, and marrow, and finally to blood exchange. And this set of boxing methods for the father starts with pile skills, which strengthens the spirit inside, strengthens the muscles and bones outside, attaches equal importance to qi and blood, and cultivates both life!"
Xia Yang taught Hong Yi the pile method, not any kind of inner boxing, but he used the pile skills of the past inner boxing, fused several kinds of boxing, with his current cultivation realm, and understanding of the subtleties of the human body, it is naturally not trivial!
It took an hour of kung fu to teach all the tips and tricks that he named the eight-pole pile to Hong Yi, and Xia Yang advised: "Remember, the pile gong is the foundation of everything in the 'Baji Boxing', and it is also the most important thing, and it must not be wasted, you know?
"Martial Saint?" Hong Yi's eyes suddenly widened, if he remembered correctly, his father seemed to be the realm of Martial Saint!
In other words, as long as he practices this set of boxing techniques, it is possible for him to become a martial saint like his father?
"Rest assured, the child must practice diligently and never dare to slack off. Taking a deep breath, Hong Yi nodded solemnly.
"Okay, now that you've memorized the pile method, then I'll teach you a set of Bajiquan moves!"
Xia Yang slowly gestured, and soon handed over the matching eight-style boxing moves to Hong Yi.
These eight styles of boxing are based on his evolution of the "King Kong Eight Potentials" in the past Baji Boxing, each style has two hundred and forty changes, complex and changeable, from shallow to deep, after practice, it is enough to dominate the world!
Under Xia Yang's guidance, Hong Yi gestured with his fists and feet, shaking his limbs. Wherever there is a mistake, Xia Yang immediately corrects it, which can be described as meticulous.
"Shhh......h
The complexity of the moves can be said to be far beyond the pile gong, Hong Yi's practice, is a whole day passed, until after dark, he barely finished the basic practice of the eight boxing moves, but he was already tired and panting, his face was pale, and he couldn't breathe.
This set of Bajiquan, the amount of exercise is too big, his body is relatively thin, his physical strength is weak, and he is naturally very difficult to practice martial arts.
"Okay, that's it for today, no need to practice anymore. ”
Seeing that he was almost exhausted, Xia Yang finally asked him to stop: "I have asked my subordinates to prepare a medicinal bath in your room, go back and soak for half an hour, sleep well, and tomorrow will be alive!"
