In the afternoon of this day, the two had arrived at the northernmost military town of the Great Xia Dynasty: Juyong Pass.

Juyong Pass is a military barrier built by the Han people in order to prevent the Xiongnu from going south, and it has been prepared since the beginning of the establishment of the previous dynasty, and it has taken countless manpower and material resources to strengthen the surrounding city walls to a height of 100 feet, which can be called impregnable, and is known as "the first pass in the world".

At the same time, Juyong Pass is an important node on the Great Wall built by the Han people, the hoarding of grain and grass in the pass, countless weapons, in case of war, if it really reaches the situation of closing and waiting for help, the grain and grass in Juyong Pass can support ten years without stopping.

The two of them walked to the bottom of the pass, and there were crossbow arrows poking out from the city wall, and behind the crossbow arrows were the soldiers defending the city with a vigilant look on their faces. San Yisheng raised his head and said, "I am San Yisheng, the dean of Kyoto Guozijian, please open the city gate." ”

He spoke with true qi, and the voice really reached the head of the city, shocking the four fields.

The soldier will be suspicious and will not be convinced. However, when he left Kyoto, he left in a hurry, and he didn't carry any valid certificates.

The soldiers didn't dare to open the city gate, and they were afraid that the other party was really the dean of the Guozijian and would not offend him, so they responded loudly: "Dean Yuanyou, we are ordered to defend the city, and we dare not open the city gate without permission. As soon as you are sure, you will be invited to enter the city. ”

San Yisheng frowned, it is thousands of miles away from Juyong Pass to Kyoto, and it will take three days to go back and forth, so do you and this lazy apprentice have to stay outside this city gate for three days?

Wang Yangming teased on the side: "Master, it seems that your name is not very good, and you don't even recognize a small soldier guarding the city." ”

The corners of San Yisheng's forehead jumped, and he glared and scolded: "You are a talent, you know how to dismantle my platform." If I don't show my hand, you really think I'm a vegetarian. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves with both hands, rose to the sky, and swept straight towards the city.

It's amazing!!

Wang Yangming couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he saw San Yisheng show this hand for the first time, his face was excited and excited, and the soldiers at the head of the city were even more dumbfounded.

As we all know, Juyongguan built a hundred-foot city wall, not only to prevent the Huns from climbing the ladder, but also to guard against the attack of the opposing cultivators, and no cultivator in the whole world can jump a hundred feet to climb the city wall. But if the other party is really the legendary world's number one master, is there such a possibility?

San Yisheng jumped up, relying on a breath of true qi in his chest, but manpower is sometimes poor, although his breath is extremely long, when he jumps to twenty feet, a breath of true qi has been exhausted, but he is not in a hurry, his sleeves wave again, with the momentum of the air flow, pause, take a breath, the real air turns, and the figure actually rises again.

In three breaths, he has leaped over the wall. Standing on top of the city, facing the soldier.

Up and down the city, the birds are silent.

The soldier had long lost his doubts, and turned over and bowed down: "The villain is really fortunate to see the dean's magic skills today, and he was offended just now, don't be surprised." ”

San Yisheng waved his hand, and a strong wind came out, supporting the other party and standing up: "You are loyal to your duties, I have nothing to blame, please open the city gate and let my apprentice in." ”

The soldiers hurriedly opened the city gate, and when the master and apprentice met, San Yisheng saw that Wang Yangming had been smirking stupidly, and frowned: "What's wrong with you?"

Wang Yangming smiled and said, "Master, although the city wall is high, it is not as high as you." ”

San Yisheng sighed: "Now I believe that being a teacher is not a person who deceives the world and steals fame?"

"Don't dare, don't dare. Master, when will you pass on this handsome light skill to me?"

San Yisheng pinched his fingers seriously, and after a while, he said: "If you are diligent from now on, standing and sitting and lying down every day to practice, then in twenty years, you should be able to learn my trick of riding the wind and the sea." ”

Twenty years!

Wang Yangming was instantly hit with confidence, and said with a bitter face: "Is there a quick way?"

"As I said before, all the quick methods are the exercises of the demon clan, and if you practice them, you will be punished by God. ”

"But twenty years is too long. Wait until your hair is gray. ”

San Yisheng looked at his apprentice with a serious look in his eyes: "You are only fifteen years old now, and you will be thirty-five years old in twenty years, if you can learn to ride the wind and the sea at that time, you will definitely be one of the few young masters in the world." What's not to be satisfied with?"

"Riding the wind and the sea, very awesome?"

"Riding the long wind and going to the sea, the world is light, it is the most awesome. ”

Well, Wang Yangming bowed respectfully: "The disciple is taught." ”

The highest administrator of Juyongguan is a first-class general, whose surname is Yuan Chonghuan, who is a famous victorious general in the Great Xia Dynasty and a descendant of the general Huo Guang. That night, he accompanied him and held a banquet to invite San Yisheng and Wang Yangming.

This person is upright, very bad at greeting, and his eloquence is very poor, and he does not leave the march to fight in three sentences, and San Yisheng is not a person who talks much, so he eats well at this meal without being depressed. Wang Yangming sat at the head of Sanyi's birth, eating and drinking by himself, so unhappy, regardless of the atmosphere in the room.

is a partial general of Yuan Chonghuan, who is very good at coming to things, keeps pouring wine and persuading food, and keeps praising how the dean is powerful, and how smart he is when he accepts an apprentice, Wang Yangming has never seen someone praise himself so much, and he is so excited to hear it.

After the meal, he and the other party have become confidants and friends, and the two have made an appointment to contact each other often in the future. Wang Yangming asked him about his surname, and the other party replied humbly: "The villain's cheap name doesn't dare to insult Qingting, my name is Qi Jiguang." ”

......

After the meal, the soldiers arranged for the two to rest.

Juyongguan is a military town, and the people living in the city are soldiers and their families, and there are no ordinary residents, and there are no shops. At night, the city is silent. The master and apprentice traveled all night, and they were extremely tired, so they immediately fell asleep without mentioning it.

On the second day, the soldiers in the city changed two horses for the two, and the two got on their horses and went out of the customs and continued their journey south.

All the way to the south, gradually to a prosperous place. The two of them watched and walked, San Yisheng kept introducing Wang Yangming to the northern scenery and the prosperous scenery along the way, and taught him the basic principles of practice in his spare time.

Although Wang Yangming has no understanding of cultivation, he has a strong desire for knowledge, and the questions he asks have changed from not knowing what to do at the beginning, to slowly becoming methodical, which makes San Yisheng extremely pleased, although his apprentice has a terrible background, he is only afraid of many tribulations and variables in the future, but in terms of cultivation qualifications, it is much better than those stupid bull Trojan horses recruited by the Guozi Supervision System.

"Master, what exactly is cultivation?"

"Cultivate the body, cultivate the mind. ”

"Master, are you talking so simply?"

"Simplicity is powerful. ”

"But I still don't understand what physical cultivation and mental cultivation are. ”

"Cultivating the body is to cultivate the outside, so that the body becomes more powerful and faster. Cultivating the mind is cultivating the inner self, so that the knowledge becomes broader, more far-reaching, and deeper. ”

"What is that martial art cultivating?"

"Physical, of course. ”

"The Dao is considered to be mind cultivation, right?"

"It's still a repair. ”

"Immortal art is always heart cultivation, right?"

"Trimming. ”

"What about spiritual power?"

"Trimming. ”

"So what exactly is mind cultivation?"

"Reading through the Tao is cultivating the mind. ”

"Then my encyclopedia can be regarded as mind cultivation?"

"What's so good about your broken book. It's better to hand it over to the teacher for safekeeping as soon as possible. ”

"The book is in the people. ”

“...... Or lend it a few glances to the teacher?"

"Master, your expression is so obscene......

This is the end of one conversation, and after a while another begins:

"Master, how do you start practicing?"

"Outside in. ”

"Cultivate the body first, then cultivate the mind?"

"Exactly. ”

"How to fix your body?"

"Exercise your strength every day, strengthen your physique, make your body as rigid as iron, train your speed and become agile, train your endurance and become endless, and train your skills to become omnipotent. ”

"When will you teach me to do physical cultivation?"

"It's already being taught. Don't let go, sit up straight!"

"Oh. ”

The two continued to gallop on horseback.

San Yisheng turned his head and asked him, "Why didn't you ask me about mind cultivation just now?"

Wang Yangming scratched his head: "The cultivation has not started yet, what do you want to do in the long run." ”

"Makes sense. San Yisheng nodded, urging the horse to run faster.

......

Le Ma is far away, and Chang'an is in sight.

Scattered Yisheng roared longitudinally, like a dragon's groan. After a while, there was a faint commotion in the city, and a rhythmic vibration came from the earth. There were armor soldiers rushing out, divided into two teams, standing on both sides of the city gate, orderly, hundreds of people without a noise.

Then the two armor soldiers led by him raised their horns and sounded their voices: "Woo......"

I only heard the bell ringing, the clouds and drums shook together, and at the same time, the two teams of armor soldiers bowed down and let out a sky-shattering roar: "Welcome the dean home!"

Obediently, Master has such a big face!

Wang Yangming was taken aback by this situation, it seems that he will be able to follow his master in the future to run rampant in Chang'an, to bully men and women, to bully men and women, and to bully men and women......

San Yisheng: "Apprentice, why is your expression so obscene?"

Wang Yangming hurriedly came back to his senses, straightened his chest, and followed San Yisheng into the city with his head held high.

As soon as he entered the city gate, he saw a white-faced bearded man wearing a brocade silk robe riding a horse running towards the two, and when he came to the two of them and lifted the reins of the horse, the horse man stood up.

The man jumped off his horse and bowed, and when he spoke, his voice was a little sharp, like that of a boy man: "Dean, the slave is waiting here." ”

San Yisheng bowed his hand and said, "Father-in-law Hong is hard. ”

Wang Yangming thought to himself, no wonder this person had such a white face and a sharp voice, it turned out to be a eunuch in the palace. It seems that he is still a powerful eunuch by the emperor's side, and he became the emperor's henchman at a young age, so he must have something extraordinary.

"Dean, the Holy Lord is waiting for you in the palace. ”

San Yisheng frowned slightly: "See you now?"

"The Holy Lord decreed that the dean would enter the palace directly after returning to Beijing. ”

"Okay. San Yisheng nodded, turned back to Wang Yangming and said, "I will enter the palace to face the saint, and you will return to the country first." From here to the east, go to No. 22 Chaoyangmen South Street, if you don't know the way, you can ask the people along the way. ”

After saying that he was leaving, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and said: "The people in the courtyard don't know you, you take my sword with you, it can be used as a token", handed the sword to him, and waved him away.

Wang Yangming agreed, took the sword and urged the horse to leave, and Gonggong Hong was embarrassed: "The meaning of the saint, please enter the palace with you, a senior disciple." ”

Wang Yangming was amazed at the emperor's well-informed information, before he and San Yisheng came back, the emperor already knew that San Yisheng had taken him as an apprentice. After thinking about it again, it was probably the news from the guard of Juyong Pass who rushed to the document for eight hundred miles?

San Yisheng was silent, and after thinking about it, he said: "Country boy, I don't know etiquette, so don't let him go for the time being." ”

"But the Holy ......"

"I'll go and say it over there. Grandpa Hong doesn't have to be embarrassed. ”

After saying no more, San Yisheng patted the horse and left, and Gonggong Hong had to follow.

Wang Yangming didn't know why the saint had to summon him immediately when San Yisheng came back, and he also wanted to see himself. Along the way to the south, he knew that San Yisheng's status in Chang'an City was different, and the saint had an extraordinary friendship with him. Maybe the saint loves the house and Wu, and he also has blue eyes for himself?

But why didn't San Yisheng let himself go to see the emperor? I don't know the etiquette? This excuse is a bit bad.

I thought about it, but there was no result, and I didn't bother to think about it again. So he turned and rode eastward to find the legendary Guozijian.
