Winning or losing is small, dragon fruit is small, Li Xuan feels like he has lost face!
Li Xuan walked out of the lobby and wandered around the courtyard of the ancestral house alone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In the info lobby, Mu Yanxi gave Huang Meng a dragon fruit and hurriedly chased him out. Huang Meng took a bite of dragon fruit, it was so sweet!
For Li Xuan, Huang Meng still understands it, he is not so stingy, and he will not have ideas and opinions because of today's affairs.
Under the big tree in the backyard of the ancestral house, Li Xuan leaned against the tree alone, and secretly realized to himself, "One force will drop ten times! I hit Huang Meng's three punches with a hairy use, but the strength is not enough, and I can't knock down the other party at all, and people will suffocate themselves with one punch." This is what the master said, if you don't practice martial arts, you will end up empty. ”
"Brother"
Suddenly, Mu Yanxi came to Li Xuan's side.
"What's the matter?" Li Xuan asked lazily.
Mu Yanxi took out a dragon fruit, "Brother, this dragon fruit is the biggest, I'll give it to you." The dragon fruit I gave to Huang Meng's brother just now is far less big than the one I gave my brother. ”
The sky was full of dark clouds, the northwest wind was cold, and it was snowing again.
The backyard of the Li family.
The treetops shook, and the dead leaves on the ground were swept up by the cold wind and scattered in the air. Li Xuan leaned lazily on the trunk of the tree, looked at the dragon fruit in Mu Yanxi's hand lightly, and pondered for a moment, "Are you pitying me? I competed with Huang Meng, I lost, and then you came to pity me? Do you think the dragon fruit is so heavy on me?"
"No, no......"
Hearing Li Xuan's words, Mu Yanxi's sensitive nerves suddenly stirred up, her anxious eyes were red, and she was about to come out in a hurry, wanting to explain, but she didn't know what to say. Li Xuan smiled slightly, naturally knowing that Mu Yanxi was not pitying himself. It's just that he was depressed in his heart, and he just sprinkled this depressed anger on Mu Yanxi. At this time, seeing that Mu Yanxi was about to cry, he patted Mu Yanxi's little head, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously." My good sister, I understand your heart, and you should keep this dragon fruit for yourself. ”
"No!"
Mu Yanxi shook his head stubbornly, stuffed the largest dragon fruit into Li Xuan's hand, and said with a crying voice: "No, my brother must eat it." I don't care who wins or loses in the competition, I just want to give my brother the biggest dragon fruit. If my brother doesn't eat it, Yan Xi can't eat it either. ”
Looking at Mu Yanxi, who looked stubborn, Li Xuan surrendered, took the dragon fruit, and said with a smile: "Okay, I know that my sister is the best, and I think about my brother in everything." Since this is the case, this dragon fruit brother accepted it. That's it. ”
"Grace, Grace, Grace"
Mu Yanxi burst into tears and smiled, grabbed Li Xuan's arm with his little hand, and also leaned on the trunk of the tree, smiling beautifully.
Li Xuan looked at the sky, thinking about why he would easily lose to Huang Meng, and thought about it. Mu Yanxi pulled Li Xuan's arm tightly and looked at Li Xuan beautifully. The brother and sister were happy, and no one noticed Huang Meng in the distance.
Mu Yanxi left the lobby, and Huang Meng also chased him out, but Huang Meng did not come to Li Xuan.
From a distance, watching Mu Yanxi give the largest dragon fruit to Li Xuan, Huang Meng, who was eating dragon fruit with joy and excitement, suddenly felt bitter in his mouth, and the dragon fruit became bitter and unpalatable.
In an instant, the contest to capture the dragon fruit lost its meaning, and his victory also lost its meaning.
"It turns out that dragon fruit is so unpalatable, it is so unpalatable. ”
Huang Meng smiled bitterly, threw away half of the dragon fruit in his hand, and turned to leave the backyard of the Li family. Lost, feeling empty in my heart, I want to ask Huang Meng why, Huang Meng can't say it himself, he just feels that the dragon fruit is bitter and hard to swallow, and he just feels that he is a good nest for victory.
A win without meaning, that is a defeat.
Gradually, scattered light snow drifted in the sky, like countless elves descending on the world, holy elves.
"There it is!"
Li Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yan Xi, it's snowing, you should go back quickly." ”
After speaking, Li Xuan was about to leave the backyard. Mu Yanxi hurriedly pulled Li Xuan and said, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to school. ”
"Didn't you tell the master today that you don't have to go?" asked Mu Yanxi suspiciously.
Li Xuan said with a smile: "Hehe, the academy is a must to go, I think of a way to defeat Huang Meng, and I have to ask the master to consider it for me." ”
"Oh, that's great. However, before you go, eat the dragon fruit. ”
"Don't eat. ”
"Don't eat?"
Li Xuan said excitedly: "Master hasn't eaten dragon fruit yet, I just brought it to Master and let Master have a good taste." Hehe, the master will definitely like it. No, I need to go to the academy quickly. ”
"But ......"
Li Xuan had already run away, and Mu Yanxi couldn't help but feel empty in his heart in the snowstorm, so uncomfortable. Mu Yanxi leaned on the trunk of the tree, looking at the snowfall in the sky, feeling that she had no strength in her body, and her spirit was extremely exhausted.
"Sister Yan Xi, Sister Yan Xi ......"
Suddenly, Li Xuan's voice came, and Li Xuan actually ran back again. Seeing Li Xuan, Mu Yanxi suddenly came to his senses, stood up suddenly, and walked a few steps, "Brother, why are you back?"
"Hey, hey"
Li Xuan showed a shy smile, looked at the dragon fruit in Mu Yanxi's hand, and said, "Sister Yanxi, can you give me another dragon fruit." I'll just want one, and I'll get my sister something else to eat later, okay?"
"Yes"
Mu Yanxi pushed the dragon fruit and smiled sweetly: "Okay, my brother can have as much as he wants." ”
"No, no, I'll just have another one. I'm afraid that the master will not be satisfied with only one dragon fruit, so it is better to bring two with me, so that the master can eat enough. Hehe, Master will definitely like the taste of dragon fruit. ”
"Brother, don't you eat it yourself?"
"I don't eat it, it's just a few dragon fruits, and if I eat them, won't the master be less. Wait, in the future, I will definitely go to Jiangnan to shovel the dragon fruit tree, plant it in the school, and let the master eat it if he wants...... Anyway, I have to hurry up. ”
Li Xuan took two dragon fruits and ran away without a shadow.
Mu Yanxi looked at Li Xuan's disappearing back in a daze, and shouted tears in her aggrieved eyes, "Master, Master, how can they all be masters, you know Master, why is Master so annoying!
In the school, Yuan Zixuan stood under the big tree in the courtyard of the school, holding the snowflakes with open hands, dancing in white clothes, and a natural smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Turning around gently, her graceful posture is like a fairy dancing in the wind and snow.
"Master, Master......"
Li Xuan came to the school, Yuan Zixuan stopped, put down her arms, and glanced at Li Xuan lightly, "It's snowing outside, come to the house." ”
Entering Yuan Zixuan's room, Li Xuan hurriedly offered two dragon fruits, Yuan Zixuan glanced at the dragon fruit lightly, put it aside casually, and said, "You have this intention, and I am satisfied." Your guests are gone?"
"Left, my fifth uncle left before noon. Hey, by the way, dragon fruit is delicious, Master try it. This dragon fruit is hard to find, and money can't buy it, so let's try it. ”
Yuan Zixuan smiled slightly and said, "It's hard to find a thousand gold, just because you want to ask for it." If you don't want it, it's worthless. When we practice martial arts, the most taboo thing is to be confused by external objects. How many people were not afraid of the enemy on the thorny and bloody road, and they were not defeated, but they lost their way in the gentle township, and their martial arts cultivation did not move forward an inch. Li Xuan, you have to remember that your heart is like stopping water, like a mirror and the moon, don't be confused by these vulgar foreign objects. ”
"Oh, got it, Master. ”
Offering dragon fruit, it did not receive the expected effect, and Li Xuan was still a little disappointed in his heart.
Subsequently, Li Xuan told him about the competition with Huang Meng. After hearing this, Yuan Zixuan said, "It's nothing, Huang Meng is originally stronger than you." Before entering the martial arts level, it will be difficult for you to surpass him in physical strength. It doesn't matter, as long as you enter the martial arts level, the gap in your body can be ignored. ”
"But Master, I was thinking that if I had a sharp weapon, I would probably be the one who won today. Hand-to-hand combat relies on the body, and skills are useless under brute force. If you are holding a weapon, your brutal body can't match the weapon, and the skill of fighting is even more important, and if you compare weapons today, I may not lose. Li Xuan said seriously.
"What weapon do you want?" asked Yuan Zixuan.
Li Xuan thought for a while and said, "I want to use a sword." ”
Fighting the sword to the end of the world and cutting through all the injustices! Isn't this every boy's dream!
Li Xuan wanted to use weapons, but Yuan Zixuan did not object.
In fact, even if Li Xuan and Huang Meng were armed with weapons, Li Xuan might not be Huang Meng's opponent. However, to practice martial arts, it is still important to have a weapon at hand. A weapon is an extension of the body, and having a weapon at hand can often get twice the result with half the effort and increase the combat power.
What kind of weapons are handy?
A weapon that fits your mind is a weapon that you can take advantage of!
Legend has it that three hundred years ago, there was a sword idiot in the world, obsessed with swords, obsessed with swords, and never left his hand all day long, even when he was sleeping and bathing. If you let the sword idiot choose, I would rather have the sword in my hand than choose the wife next to me.
Obsessed with swords, the sword idiot has reached the peak of the day after tomorrow at the age of thirty, and has defeated all the heroes of the eight directions. A sword in hand, the four seas are cold. When the sword idiot was thirty years old, on the Flying Eagle Career, a sword pierced the void and died in the sky, leaving a story for the ages.
If you want to be in tune with the weapon, the sooner you come into contact with it, the better. Li Xuan asked for a weapon, but Yuan Zixuan naturally did not object. Yuan Zixuan nodded slightly and said, "You want to use a sword, yes, the sword is the king of a hundred soldiers." Among the weapons, the sword is not as heavy as the hammer, it is not as fast as the whip, and it is difficult to reach the needle, but it has a clear and righteous atmosphere. A man should hold a sword, a horizontal sword in front of his knees, and a husband from all over the world. The man is upright, and he should also have a long sword in his hand. Very good, you learn the sword very well. ”
Li Xuan was slightly stunned, it was obvious that Yuan Zixuan had an inexplicable excitement when he mentioned the long sword. On weekdays, Yuan Zixuan is as indifferent as water, and she can't see joy, anger, sorrow, or joy, but when she mentions the sword today, there is a trace of waves.
Could it be that Yuan Zixuan also uses a sword? Otherwise, why is he so excited to mention the long sword.
Speaking of which, Li Xuan still didn't know what weapon Yuan Zixuan used.
"Will Master teach me kendo?"
"Yes"
Yuan Zixuan's eyes instantly calmed down the waves, nodded lightly, and said, "If you want to learn the sword, I will naturally teach you." ”
"Okay, Master, wait a minute, I'll go home and get my sword. ”
Li Xuan's eyes lit up, and he wanted to go back to get the sword. The Li family is a martial arts family, and Chu Bingyi is a martial arts powerhouse, so he naturally has a sword at home. The ordinary sword Li Xuan didn't look down on yet, what really made Li Xuan miss was the Fengli Sword!
Feng Li sword, Chu Bingyi regarded it as a treasure. It was still very difficult for Li Xuan to get the Fengli Sword from Chu Bingyi. However, Li Xuan still wanted to give it a try. There is no way, Feng Lijian and other swords are put together, as if they stand out from the crowd, like a donkey among sheep, it is too conspicuous. Li Xuan pondered, if he sharpened Chu Bingyi, it was still possible to get the Fengli Sword.
"Stop. ”
Li Xuan was just about to go home, Yuan Zixuan drank Li Xuan and said, "What are you going to do?"
"Go home and get your sword. ”
Yuan Zixuan shook her head and said, "If you want to practice your sword, you have to practice your own sword, where can you use someone else's sword." ”
"What is your own sword?"
Yuan Zixuan said: "For a kendo practitioner, the sword is the second life, and the second life must not have any flaws. A long sword, ever forged in the swordsmith's furnace, has a life of its own. When the long sword is baked, whoever is the first to hold the sword will be contaminated with the breath of whose brand will be stained on the long sword. For ordinary martial artists, it naturally doesn't matter. However, if you want to pursue the pinnacle of kendo, any flaw in the long sword is fatal. ”
"So, the long swords of those sword path peak powerhouses were all forged by themselves?" Li Xuan couldn't help asking. Although Li Xuan trusted Yuan Zixuan, he still had a lot of doubts about Yuan Zixuan's words. There are many kendo powerhouses in the world, could it be that the swords of these kendo powerhouses are all forged by themselves?
"Not really. ”
Yuan Zixuan said: "Hehe, do you think that everyone in the world can be as lucky as you, and be able to meet a master who really understands swords? Hehe, when many people learn swords, they don't know swords at all." In the future, the way of the sword will gradually become deeper, and if you understand the importance of the fit between the mind and the long sword, you will not tolerate the flaws in the long sword, and then you will feed the sword with your own essence and blood, and make up for the flaws in the long sword with your own essence and blood, so as to achieve the great consummation of the unity of the heart and sword. ”
"Hehe, that's, that's, who in the world has my Li Xuan's good luck, to be able to meet the master. Hehe, I met the master because of the green smoke from the ancestral tomb, hum, others, even if the ancestral tomb of the eighteenth generation is smoking, it may not be as good luck as me to meet the fairy-like master......"
Yuan Zixuan rarely joked, Li Xuan naturally hurriedly cooperated, and the sycophants were like the water of a river, rolling like a tide......
"Begging for beating, where did you learn sweet words, you dare to say it to your master. ”
Yuan Zixuan's face straightened, and she brought the conversation back to the point, and said, "Since we know that in the practice of swordsmanship, there will be trouble due to careless sword selection, so there is no need for us to ask for trouble. If you want to learn a sword, you must first learn to forge a sword, and forge a flawless sword that matches your heart. ”
A sword of infallibility?
If Huang Meng heard this, he would definitely start to learn to forge swords happily. Li Xuan is not Huang Meng. Li Xuan's soul is an adult in his twenties, and he has been washed by Chinese civilization, and his mind is far more flexible than that of people today.
Where is the sword of perfection so easy!
Li Xuan shook his little head and said: "The Holy Master once said, there is a precedence in hearing the Tao, there is a specialization in the art industry, and it is difficult to specialize in one of the hundred-year-old body, how dare you be greedy." There are countless swordsmen in the world, and there is no one who has really stepped on the pinnacle of swordsmanship. This is especially true of swordsmiths, there are many iron swords in the streets and alleys, and those who can cast peerless divine weapons have been rare since ancient times. The way of the sword is endless, and you can't get a glimpse of it in your life, if you are distracted by the swordsmanship, I am afraid that you will plant the root of the bane, and the way of the sword will not be successful, and you will not be able to cast the sword, and you will toss and waste yourself.
