Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Ladder
The snowflakes danced with the red flame in Shao's hand, and the sword intent was wrapped in the snowflakes......
A few months have passed, and Shaoyi's sword qi has generally become a trend through the guidance of the invisible form and the inspiration of the ghost qi, but the "Xiao Kui Xing" style is still a final, higher stage, which is also the stage when Shao Yi has always stopped moving forward and sighing with hope, that is: how to complete a complete set of sword styles within three breaths while beating the "Xiao Kui Xing" sword style smoothly, negligently, but not leakingly, and in one go.
The day was high, and he woke up with one less party, and he didn't know how he got back to Sanssouci last night.
Last night, the seven stars were extremely close to the middle of the sky, and such an opportunity would only appear once. Looking at the stars and feeling something, dancing the sword to the point of complete forgetfulness.
"At this point in the sword realm, it doesn't matter if you have a sword in your hand or not, you are already a ghost and a god. Gu Gu affirmed: "Now, the key is: you have to complete a set of sword styles in three breaths, which is probably also a problem for martial arts people who build the foundation realm." ”
As she spoke, she handed a bowl of hot pots of tea.
Shaoyi wants to go further, let go of obsession and dependence, and no longer "ask" the world with a sword, but calmly reserve his energy, purify his mind, and regulate his breath to prepare for the completion of the promotion.
Goo always says, ask the heart inward, look outward for the answer.
This made Shaoyi grit his teeth one by one and temporarily put down his years of sword practice. He began to try to find a new breakthrough to solve this final level.
When "Xiaoyao" flew back to the cave, Shaoyi remembered the whole process of his own eagle training half a year ago:
To train a falcon, you must first give the eagle a fat. Shaoyi not only does not give the little "Xiaoyao" to eat, but also gives it stomach lavage. After washing the stomach, bathe it in hot water and make it sweat, so that it really lost weight.
Cover the eagle's head with a skin eye patch so that it cannot see, and then tie the eagle's feet with a leather stumbling.
Then, put a small "Xiaoyao" on a wooden stick hanging horizontally in the air, and pull the hanging stick back and forth so that it cannot stand steadily.
In this way, for several days and nights, the little 'Xiaoyao' was overwhelmed, exhausted, and finally fell to the ground.
At this time, Shaoyi once again relentlessly poured cold water on the eagle's head to revive it, and then gave it salt water, but still did not feed it.
After about half a month, the little "Xiaoyao" was gradually domesticated and the wildness gradually disappeared, and at this time, it began to be fed.
There is also a set of methods for feeding.
At that time, as an "eagle handle", Shao Yi put the meat on the holster of his arm, and let the little "Little Xiaoyao" come to peck at it, and the "Little Xiaoyao", who had been hungry for a long time, saw the meat, so he rushed over desperately, and the less one pulled the distance between him and the little "Xiaoyao" again and again, and every time, he did not give the little "Xiaoyao" a full meal.
This is repeated several times, dozens of times, until the little "Xiaoyao" can fly and peck at the flesh on the falconer's arm.
When it comes to outdoor taming, the sixteen feathers of the eagle's tail must be sewn together with thread, so that it cannot fly high, but can only move in a small area. Use a live rabbit tethered to the grass or a fox skin tied to meat as a prey, and let it dive through the air to eat.
After training like this for a while, the tail line is removed, and only a long rope is tied to the leg, and it is allowed to catch the prey like a kite.
When the official falconry hunted, the little "Xiaoyao" had already become accustomed to moderate food and fast action under strong training. After the little "Xiaoyao" had such an ability, Shaoyi began to help it play a hunting function.
At first, during the feeding stage, one less person paid attention to putting rabbits, pigeons and other animal meat on the leather sheath of his arm, so that the little "Xiaoyao" came over to peck at it. The eaglet, which had been hungry for a long time, saw the meat, and pounced desperately.
Shaoyi also used live rabbits, pigeons, or fox skins tied to the grass as prey, and took off the blindfold to let the little "Xiaoyao" practice swooping and biting from the air.
Shaoyi kept talking to the little "Xiaoyao", letting his voice imprint in his head, and when it grew up, the little "Xiaoyao" really recognized and only obeyed the orders of its own master.
The younger one will also identify the hides it is going to hunt, so that the little "Xiaoyao" is familiar with the breath of the prey.
The trained little "Xiaoyao" can already chase wolves on the grassland for long distances.
Once, while patiently waiting for the wolf to be exhausted, the little "Xiaoyao" grabbed its neck with one paw and grabbed its eyes with the other, so that the wolf soon lost the ability to resist.
......
Thinking of the hardships of eagle training at the beginning, as well as the domestication progress of the small "carefree" that he finally saw after overcoming the difficulties, Shaoyi is still unsatisfied.
Today, Xiao Xiaoyao has grown up several times, and he is already an eagle who "does not scatter an eagle if he does not see a rabbit" and "it is difficult to change a good horse". "The golden eagle is swift and eagle, deep autumn, wings, wild foxes, strong wolves, and yellow sheep belong to it, and there is no one to get rid of. ”
And such a wild king of divine birds, but after being tamed by people, he was "invincible" and practiced his skills......
Shaoyi always felt that more or less, he had found a key to the sword training ladder. It's just that the thinking about whether this key can open the door to promotion seems to be spinning in the mind, and it has not yet taken shape, although people have some understanding, but they can't summarize it.
Shaoyi pondered carefully, if according to the "Xiao Kuixing" when he met him, he immediately "cleared" his original, that original, superficial problem-solving experience;
Thinking about it, the momentum of the Beidou seems to be domineering, but in fact, it is the two dark stars that have been ignored and forcibly erased from people's memories that ignite themselves at the critical moment and lead the "Nine Stars to Look at the North Pole".
The so-called eagle is sharp, and the proud eagle has become a "ghost", so that he can forget himself like "nirvana rebirth", not only to maintain the wildness of the beast, but also to become an invincible bird that truly dominates the sky with the cooperation of the living force (human race).
......
The truth contained in this seems to be......
Shaoyi lowered his head and thought about it, if he was the dark star that would almost never see the light of day and would never be useful, would he still be able to put down his body and wait calmly?
If you were an eagle soaring through the skies and unwilling to be tamed, would you endure the humiliation and steal your life after being captured until you have mastered your skills, and you will be tamed to fight alongside the Terrans and acquire a more brilliant hunting technique than before?
......
Whether it is the lost who can distinguish the only two dark stars in the clouds in despair and be rescued, or the eagle finally defeats the invincible wolf of the wilderness with the cooperation of the human race, these require the torment and selflessness of countless years of foreshadowing.
Only by forgetting what he is and hating to be a ghost...... Only by surviving this stage of abandonment and torture and losing the "self...... in order to regain a new and stronger self.
In this sword, I am afraid that only the word "boil" is the unchanging ladder.
On that day, the village chief and his old man taught the simplest action - "mention", and it was also after a few days, when the time got to that point, and Shaoyi, who had practiced hard for many days, naturally realized the way in an instant.
Perhaps, the qi of heaven and earth is also like this, less than one thought.
