Chapter 8: Practicing (3)
The next day, Lin Chaoyuan called Lin Yan over. "www.biquge.info Yan'er, just yesterday, because of your wonderful realm, my father-in-law's water practice is about to reach perfection. Stepfather should now hurry up and practice the new exercises you have provided, in the hope that the breakthrough will be smoother. So from today onwards, my stepfather will go to the ashram for a period of retreat, and you will practice in your courtyard by yourself if there is nothing to do. If there is something, you can find your Shaoqin brother, uncle, third uncle or grandfather. Try not to go out, you know? The stepfather will leave the customs as soon as possible and celebrate the New Year with you. Lin Yan was a little reluctant to hear this, but he still nodded in agreement, but his little hand tightly grasped Lin Chaoyuan's empty sleeve. Lin Chaoyuan looked at it and shook his head, and sent someone to call Lin Shaoqin. "Shaoqin, the second uncle is going to the ashram for a period of retreat, and you have to take good care of your brother, you know? Martial arts training and martial arts training cannot be left behind. You are not allowed to go out if you have nothing to do. Do you understand? ”
"Got it, second uncle" Lin Shaoqin hurriedly agreed.
Lin Chaoyuan reluctantly touched Lin Yan's little face, asked Lin Shaoqin to take Lin Yan away, packed up his things and went to the quiet room.
Accompanied by Lin Shaoqin, Lin Yan returned to his courtyard, thinking that he would not see his father-in-law for a while, and he had no interest in practicing at all. I took a fishing rod and boarded a boat and caught fish in the lake behind the courtyard. I put a boat on the small lake, closed my eyes and fished, and my mood gradually calmed down. The hook of the fish woke Lin Yan up. Lin Shaoqin helped Lin Yan catch fish. Looking at the fish in the fish basket, Lin Yan remembered the state of yesterday, and reached out to put the fish back into the water. I saw the fish's tail shake and swim quickly to the depths. Lin Yan's heart moved, closing his eyes and imagining the scene of the fish fleeing quickly just now, combined with the state of rapid progress when he turned into a fish in the wonderful realm, Lin Yan's mind was hazy and there was a shadow of a body method. He looked up and said to Lin Shaoqin: "Big brother, I want to learn to swim, can you teach me?" ”
Lin Shaoqin agreed: "Yes, but the water temperature is a little cold now, we have to get up after studying for a while, be careful of freezing and colding." ”
Lin Yan agreed. The two took off their clothes and went down into the water with only their underwear. Lin Yan's illusion in the Wonderful Realm was manifested again. He seemed to be a darling of the water, playing lightly in the water of the lake, not at all like a person who went into the water for the first time. Lin Shaoqin was also taken aback, he didn't understand how this first person who had entered the water was more familiar with water than himself, who had been in the water for many years.
Lin Yan happily immersed himself in the water: he sank for a while, floated up for a while, swam quickly for a while, rolled quickly for a while, and enjoyed himself. The true qi in his body slowly flowed unconsciously, and as time passed, the true qi ran faster, and Lin Yan's speed in the water became faster and faster, and his movements became lighter and more varied. The trajectory of the True Qi movement gradually imprinted in Lin Yan's mind, and slowly became clear. Lin Shaoqin saw that Lin Yan was having fun and imitated it, but he couldn't be as comfortable as Lin Yan. He had a feeling that Lin Yan was practicing a kind of body technique. He withdrew from Lin Yan's range of activities and watched Lin Yan from the side, protecting him from an accident that would disturb him. Unconsciously, an hour passed, and Lin Yan stopped, floating quietly on the water, feeling everything that had just happened. After a while, Lin Yan opened his eyes and saw Lin Shaoqin guarding the periphery, he swam over, "Thank you, big brother!" Let's go up. Lin Shaoqin accompanied Lin Yan to the shore. Lin Yan said: "Big brother, I just learned a set of body techniques in the water, and now I need to practice on the shore, if there is something to do, go first, don't need to accompany me." ”
"I'm not busy, I'm not busy." Lin Shaoqin hurriedly said, "Just now in the water, I felt that you were practicing the body method, the exercise method is very peculiar, I imitate it but I don't know the essentials." Now that you're practicing on shore, it just so happens that I can also get a closer look. This is a great opportunity, how could I miss it. You just practice yours, don't worry about me. At the same time, he urged Lin Yan to practice faster.
Seeing this, Lin Yan didn't say anything more, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and calmed down, recalling every bit of his presence in the water. After a while, he stood up and used his true qi to follow the trajectory of his memory, and his body moved in unison, very slowly: sometimes forward; sometimes backwards; sometimes bending; sometimes straightened; Rotate from time to time; Flipping from time to time; Jumping from time to time; Squatting from time to time. Sometimes he does a variety of complex postures, which looks extremely uncoordinated. Half an hour later, Lin Yan stopped, pondered for a moment again, and he repeated it again. After repeating this several times, Lin Yan became more and more proficient, and his movements and body techniques became more and more coherent. Lin Shaoqin's heart was itching, but he couldn't disturb Lin Yan, so he had to wait patiently on the side. He instructed Lin Yan's maid to prepare some meals, and when Lin Yan was finished, he would eat some first, and if he starved, the second uncle would have to settle accounts with him when he came out of retreat. After two hours passed, Lin Yan ended his cultivation.
Lin Shaoqin urged Lin Yan to hurry up and eat first, and after Lin Yan had eaten, he would talk to Lin Yan. The two fought with their bare hands. Of course, Lin Shaoqin can't use internal force. Although Lin Yan is young, with his newly comprehended body method, he also looks like one between advance and retreat. Moreover, with the continuous discussion, the deeper Lin Yan's comprehension became, and the more skilled his body was, it was difficult for Lin Shaoqin to meet Lin Yan later. The two fought and frolicked until evening.
The maid came in and invited them to supper, and the two of them washed up a little and hurried to the dining-room. Arriving at the restaurant was already a crowd of people. Seeing Lin Shaoqin holding Lin Yan's hand in and coming in, they greeted each other. When the old man Lin Yongqiang saw it, he stretched out his hand and greeted: "Shaoqin and Yan'er come to grandpa's side." The two of them walked over. At the same table, there are also two brothers, Lin Chaozong and Lin Chaohui. The two of them sat down after saying goodbye to each other. "Yan'er, how did your stepfather live in retreat today? And how did you come here with your brother Shaoqin? Grandpa asked.
Before Lin Yan could reply, Lin Shaoqin had already rushed to say: "Grandpa, the second uncle didn't worry about the little brother before the retreat, so he called me over to accompany the little brother." So today we're all together all the time. Grandpa, you don't know, I've learned a lot with my little brother today. Before grandpa asked, Lin Shaoqin continued: "Today I accompanied my younger brother, and my younger brother said that he wanted to learn to swim, so I accompanied him to swim in Lake Middle School, and it turned out that my younger brother actually understood a set of body methods in the water. Later, after going ashore, I sparred with my younger brother for a while, and this set of body techniques was really powerful, and I couldn't touch my younger brother without using internal force later. Lin Yongqiang, Lin Chaozong, and Lin Chaohui were taken aback after hearing this, and everyone exchanged for a while, and finally Lin Yongqiang said: "I won't say this in advance." Remember, you two don't talk about it with anyone else, you know? After eating, they all came to my courtyard. Let's eat now. "Everyone started eating. After eating, Lin Shaoqin took Lin Yan to his grandfather's yard. After a while, they all gathered in Lin Yongqiang's study. Closing the door, Lin Yongqiang said: "Shaoqin, Yan'er, today's incident is not allowed to be spread by you to protect you, and it is also to protect our Lin family. Shaoqin, you may not know that the day before Yan'er created this set of body methods, he also improved and perfected the "Five Elements Exercises" chapter of the Water Walking Exercises. Now your second uncle is going to the ashram to retreat to learn new exercises and increase the chance of breakthrough. Through the events of these two days, we believe that Yan'er has a talent for martial arts. This is a good thing, and it is something worth celebrating for Yan'er and the Lin family. But it's also a hidden danger. If other forces, even hostile forces, knew about it, it would bring harm to Yan'er and the family, and they would not allow a genius to be out of their control. Therefore, Yan'er's creation of the exercises must not be spread outside, and even within the family, try to avoid saying it. Lin Yongqiang's tone was very cautious, and the two hurriedly promised not to say anything about it again. Lin Yongqiang looked at it and put his mind at ease, and then said: "Yan'er, from tomorrow, we will arrange for other brothers and sisters to go to your small courtyard to practice together. Externally, we say that it is because you are still young, your stepfather is not around, and you need someone to accompany you. You brothers practiced martial arts and communicated with each other in the small courtyard. You know. After arranging this matter, Lin Shaoqin took Lin Yan and left first. Lin Yongqiang, Lin Chaozong, and Lin Chaohui discussed. Lin Yongqiang asked, "Today, have you tried to practice the water practice method that Yan'er perfected yesterday?" Both nodded. I've also tried, and although I haven't fully opened all the meridians to complete the Zhoutian cycle, at least I haven't experienced any discomfort. Moreover, Yan'er's performance today shows that this new exercise has good hydrophilicity and high compatibility with water. I think it's all right. Let Shaoqin and them all start to practice this set of exercises, and practice with Yan'er, and the brothers can learn from each other and improve together, maybe they can also improve the exercises, or create other martial arts. The two brothers of Lin Chaozong thought for a moment and agreed. Lin Chaozong said: "In the future, several of us will take turns to go to Yan'er to watch, and at the same time, the maids and servants in Yan'er's courtyard will be replaced by reliable people. They are the future of our Lin family, and we will never allow them to be noticed and hurt by others before they grow up. The second brother is now in retreat to practice the new exercises, and when he comes out, we will be able to know the specific results of the new exercises, and if the effect is obvious, then we will all practice the new exercises, and let the core members of the family practice this exercises. If that doesn't work, we still have time to stop the practice of a few of them. Of course, I think this is very unlikely, and seeing Yan'er's performance, I have complete confidence in him. Hahaha! After speaking, Lin Chaozong laughed happily. The other two also laughed, they were also completely confident in Lin Yan. There can never be something that is not feasible.
The next day, Lin Yan got up and found that except for the maid Xia He, the other servants had changed. After breakfast, Lin Yongqiang; Lin Chaozong took Lin Shaoqin, Lin Shaopeng, and Lin Shaoyan; Lin Chaohui took Lin Shaokun, Lin Shaolun, and Lin Sifan to Lin Yan's courtyard. Lin Yan hurriedly saluted them one by one. Under the leadership of the boss Lin Shaoqin, the brothers quickly got along harmoniously, especially Lin Sifan, who was three years old in Da Lin Yan, kept holding Lin Yan's little hand and calling his little brother, little brother. The atmosphere is harmonious. Lin Yongqiang and the three of them were also full of joy when they saw it. Family harmony and fraternal unity are what they want to see the most, and they are also the foundation for the survival and development of a big family. After they got acquainted with each other for a while, Lin Yongqiang arranged for Lin Shaokun and Lin Yan to have a discussion. Without using internal force, Lin Shaokun also had no way to take Lin Yan, who had a new body method, and the few little guys who looked at it were red-eyed, and Xiao Sifan even held Lin Yan's little hand and argued to learn. Lin Yongqiang stepped forward to stop the noise and said to everyone: "I have a few things to announce to you today: First, from now on, you will all come here to practice martial arts, this is to hope that you brothers will practice hard together, learn from each other, help each other, and promote each other. Shaoqin, you are the biggest here, you must play an exemplary role, lead and manage your younger brothers and sisters. Second, from today onwards, you will learn a new exercise, a new water practice method. This technique is improved and perfected by Yan'er, if you have any questions when you are practicing, ask Yan'er, and of course the three of us will take turns to come over to give you guidance. Third, you must remember that you are never allowed to say anything about this here, including martial arts, exercises, martial arts, etc., this is the secret of our Lin family. You know? Yan'er, if you can, you can also pass on the body martial arts you created yesterday to a few brothers and sisters, okay? ”
Lin Yan nodded. He loves it, he loves the people here, and he wants to share everything he has with them. "Grandpa, I'll record my body martial arts another day, and you can help me improve it." Lin Yan said to Lin Yongqiang.
Lin Yongqiang shook his head with a loving smile, and touched Lin Yan's little face with his hand, "Yan'er, you don't need to be like this, when you say this, do you think about grandpa's face, I'm afraid that grandpa will be embarrassed to accept this big gift from you." Lin Yan lowered his head shyly. Yan'er, you have to remember that we are a family, and if we are a family, we have to say anything, and what is beneficial to you and our Lin family, you can mention it if you want, and you don't need to worry about it. You know? Grandpa will accept this great gift, and Grandpa will cultivate with you to perfect it. Your style is very characteristic in melee combat and remote escape, but it is not enough in terms of limited space or dealing with attacks in the air, so we will improve it together when the time comes. Lin Yan nodded with emotion. Lin Yongqiang looked around and said, "Okay, in the future, you all practice here well, remember that you have to practice the exercises, the techniques, and the body." We'll check it out then. Now we are teaching the new water exercises. Yan'er, you also listen to it and see if there is anything to add. Lin Yongqiang, Lin Chaozong, and Lin Chaohui began to teach the little ones new exercises, and Lin Yan also listened carefully beside him. I have a deeper understanding of the water exercises.
Lin Shaoqin's seven brothers and sisters began their hard and happy cultivation in Lin Yan's small courtyard. The relationship between the brother and sister is deeper, and the kung fu has also improved rapidly. This also made the three people who often came over to guide their cultivation very pleased.
