Chapter 14: Elephantless Magic

Mid-August.

In the past week of the 'kidnapping incident', Zhou Yang has learned a lot from the last experience, especially the 'Divine Illusion'.

He liked the technique of not hurting people and easily subduing them.

So after getting off work in the past few days, Zhou Yang couldn't wait to go home and learn the 'magic method' with Liuli.

Perhaps he has a talent in this area, and in only three days, he has mastered the basic skills of hands, eyes, body, shape, and steps, and the five illusions, but he is still beaten by Liuli.

No matter what method Zhou Yang uses, Liuli always uses the way of others to govern his body......

In the end, her trick was pierced by Changge, and Zhou Yang realized that Liuli had been playing tricks on him with "Elephantless Magic".

"Elephantless Divine Technique" is a peculiar idea of divine thought, it is neither a spell, nor a practice for cultivation, it is a bit similar to Jin Yong's martial arts "Little Wuxiang Gong", its main feature is 'imitation'.

That is, to imitate the 'visible plane' and 'invisible plane' of a person or thing through 'divine visualization'.

The 'tangible level' refers to what can be seen with the naked eye, such as: movements, shapes, fist and sword moves, etc.

'Intangible things' are things that cannot be seen with the naked eye, such as: spirit, temperament, breath, artistic conception, etc.

There are two necessary conditions for cultivating this divine art.

First, to be able to be 'imageless and selfless', that is, to imagine yourself as an empty box into which anything can be filled. In this way, you can use the imitation for your own use.

Second, if you have a divine mind, you need to place your divine thoughts on this technique, otherwise you can only imitate the physical level of the other party, and you can't imitate the spiritual level.

These two Zhou Yang are basically satisfied.

'Divine Thoughts', he can use the Enlightenment Fruit to temporarily raise his spirit to the level of Divine Thoughts at the cost of consuming physical energy.

'No image and no self', Zhou Yang didn't understand it at first, but later realized it after the guidance of a long song.

......

Yesterday, as soon as he learned the "Elephantless Divine Technique", Zhou Yang ran to Beihai Park to 'steal boxing'.

In the morning, I learned the four internal boxing methods and routines of "Tai Chi", "Xingyi", "Bagua" and "Eight Extremes" from the uncles and aunts in the park, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that 'the Elephantless Divine Technique is simply an open writing wheel'.

However, there are some contraindications to the use of this technique.

After stealing his fist yesterday, he tried to visualize the park's 'Beihai Lake' in his heart, but he almost lost himself and became a drop of water in the lake.

Changge explained that the reason is that his state of mind and cultivation have not yet reached the level of accommodating a lake.

Forcibly visualizing is equivalent to throwing a stone into the sea, rain falling on a lake, and eventually losing oneself, losing one's soul and turning one's body into an empty shell.

Liuli once used 'divine art' to steal someone's swordsmanship and sword intent, but because of insufficient cultivation, he was severely injured by that person's sword intent, and his divine soul almost dissipated.

......

Beihai Park, under the willow trees by the lake.

Zhou Yang is in casual clothes, sitting barefoot cross-legged, exhaling and exhaling, and his breath is natural and long, giving people the illusion that he and the willow tree are breathing together.

A few old men practicing swords by the lake would glance at him from time to time.

Ten breaths later, Zhou Yang opened his eyes, and there was a kind of tranquility and leisurely in his bright eyes.

Changge said that after learning the "Elephantless Divine Technique", there is nothing difficult to practice, and all things can be teachers. Sure enough, yes. ”

Originally, the purpose of his visit to the park today was just to run, practice boxing, and then learn a few swordsmanship.

Later, when I saw this willow tree, I felt itchy and wanted to see if I could 'visualize it in my heart'.

So Zhou Yang ran the 'Tongming Fruit', pinned his divine thoughts on this willow tree, and finally not only succeeded in 'visualizing the willow tree into his heart', but also learned a special 'willow breathing method' from the willow tree!

Overjoyed, he dissipated his thoughts, meditating on the willow tree in his heart, and at the same time reviewing the 'breathing method' he had just learned, and unconsciously sat here for an hour......

At this time, Zhou Yang felt that the blood was unblocked, there was no shortage of muscles and bones, and he could see things more clearly, and he knew in his heart that this was the benefit of the 'Willow Breathing Method'.

"This breathing method is not a 'qi induction technique', right? Go back and ask Changge. ”

"Speaking of which, I have a lot of relationship with the tree, first I met Changge, and then I met this willow tree......"

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang hugged his fist at the willow tree in front of him and thanked him, which attracted the attention of the old man practicing swords by the lake, and they discussed it one after another.

They practiced swords by the Beihai Lake for some years, with an average age of more than 60 years old, and the leader was named Chen Bingwang, who served as a soldier in the Northwest Frontier when he was young. The old man's Taijiquan and Taijijian were learned in the army.

......

"The Roc spreads its wings, and the wasp enters the hole......"

Lakeside.

Lao Chen was dancing the sword while reciting the mantra, his movements were delicate and generous, chic and steady.

However, the old friends behind him did not cooperate, and looked at Zhou Yang one by one, as if there was some treasure.

"I said, old people, can't you practice anymore? Why do you keep looking over there?"

"If you don't practice, don't practice, let's take a break. "Aunt Yang put away the sword, and the other people she brought with her lost their hearts, resting and resting, and drinking water.

Aunt Yang leaned over to Lao Chen and said, "What kind of qigong do you think that guy is practicing? I see that he has been sitting under the tree for an hour, and he hasn't moved in between." Many times I look at him like I look at a tree......"

As soon as she said this, Lao Chen also felt a little strange, "Just call over and ask?" Heyβ€”β€”, young man come on!"

Under the willow tree, Zhou Yang was sorting out his thoughts.

Just now, he suddenly had an inspiration, and thought to himself: "Can we integrate the characteristics of the willow tree into the fist and sword techniques?" ”

Chang Ge also said: "The magic of the Elephantless Divine Technique lies in the fact that 'all things are teachers, and all laws go together'." Only learning and not using is a supernatural power, applying what you have learned is supernatural power, and learning and using it is a wonderful supernatural power!"

That is to say, 'what is imitated by the Elephantless Divine Technique is someone else's.' It's your own only thing if you put it together, or add your own new ideas to it, or combine different things. is the best way to use it. ’

Zhou Yang learned this technique for the first time, and he couldn't do it yet, but he really wanted to try to combine the things he had learned.

"It's better to combine the 'willow artistic conception' with the 'Taijiquan sword'. The combination of rigidity and softness of Tai Chi and the movement of willow trees with the wind, can they complement each other?"

Zhou Yang looked forward to it and strode towards Lao Chen.

......

Lakefront.

"Sir, good swordsmanship. ”

Zhou Yang praised him first when he met, Lao Chen turned his sword flower, and said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, see you meditating under the willow tree, we still talk about you." You're practicing qigong, aren't you?"

"It's a way to regulate the breath, similar to Indian yoga. As he spoke, Zhou Yang noticed the sword in his hand: "Are you using the Taiji Sword or the Longquan Sword?"

"Cheng, here you go. For some reason, Lao Chen had an inexplicable good impression of Zhou Yang in front of him, and handed out the sword with his backhand: "This is a genuine Taiji sword of mine, the sword is three feet three feet long and weighs two catties and one tael, you can play the sword body and listen to it." ”

Zhou Yang took the Tai Chi sword, and found that it was indeed much heavier than expected, and the sword fingers in his right hand slashed across the sword body, and with a slight flick, the sword rang in his ears.

"Good sword!"

Zhou Yang held the sword and turned the flower, directly bypassing the Taiji sword starting style, and made two moves, 'turning back and splitting the Kuixing style, dragonfly point water bow knee stabbing ......'

Boom –

A sword stabbed out, and the tip of the sword buzzed, like a green dragon, ready to get out of his hand.

"Good!" Lao Chen praised loudly.

Zhou Yang smiled and played a sword flower to close the momentum, but he had no intention of stopping.

He closed his eyes, contemplated with his sword on his back, his heart was like a willow tree, his body was like a willow branch, just waiting for the wind to come...

......

On the other side of the lake, a long-haired beauty was sitting on a bench reading a book, when suddenly a fresh breeze hit behind her, rolling up the red ribbon on her lap and floating towards the lake......

The beauty seems to be laughing at the breeze and naughty, tiptoeing a little, and chasing with the wind. The moment she grabbed the ribbon, the reflection of the lake was reflected in her pupils.

In the shadow, a little cold light stabbed directly from the opposite bank, and the sword light turned into willow branches, and there were thousands of shadows!

She put her feet on the ground and retreated a few meters, and by the time her figure was set, the shadow of the sword on the opposite bank had already disappeared with the wind.

"Sword Intent!"
