The most comfortable season in Fengyun City is not spring, but autumn, with a cool breeze blowing from the Tianshan Mountains, golden pears hanging from the trees, and leaves dyed golden by the willow river.

Li Ye and Ah Gui walked through the streets in the early morning, and the quiet town had just woken up, and the noisy and bustling day had not yet begun. Only the sound of the wheels of the water truck rolling against the bluestone slabs was intermittent.

Without the bowl on his head, Li Ye's walking speed was not much faster, and each step was no more than two feet. In Li Ye's words, as long as you don't work hard, you don't have to run wild.

I entered the courtyard of Mr. and walked through the path shaded by purple bamboo, and came to the front of the hall where Mr. likes to be quiet. In front of him is still a tea table made of Tianshan ink jade, and there is still a pot of purple sand and red clay for daily use on the table, and a small charcoal stove is resting on the side, and the copper pot on the stove is still steaming.

I just don't see Mr.

Li Ye didn't go to make tea, but asked Ah Gui to stay here, watch the fire, and don't boil the pot dry.

I went around and found Mr. in the corridor to the kitchen.

The gentleman was under the eaves of the cloister, pulled a rope, and hung the marinated beef on it, each slice was very thin, and the marinade was very even, and the wind blew, revealing a faint smell of spices and salt.

There was a pot of meat and a meat cutting knife on the side, Li Ye picked up the knife in the basin and asked Mr., "Sir, this is not the New Year's Day, why do you want to marinate so much meat? Also, why is this knife not like a kitchen knife." ”

After saying that, he picked up the meat slices from the basin and hung them on the rope.

The gentleman glanced at Li Ye and continued to hang the meat.

After a while, he said, "Didn't you practice boxing with the old monk?

"The cultivation is almost over, in the words of the master, it is to enter the door, there will be no breakthrough in a short time, and I will come back, and I will continue to practice when I go to the mountains with you to collect medicine in a few days. Li Ye replied.

The gentleman nodded and continued: "Well, the matter of cultivation is not in a hurry, and what the old monk said makes sense. After the meat is dried, it is only about 50 catties, and it is used to save the emergency when I can't find food in the mountains. ”

"It's still Mr. who has thought about it thoroughly, and I'm also thinking about what to prepare for going to the mountains with my husband these days. Li Ye replied with a smile.

The gentleman looked at him, thought for a while and said, "What do you like to eat, go to the market tomorrow to buy more and bring it with you, after all, the mountains are bitter, and you have to spend the winter there, so there is not much to eat." ”

Li Ye looked at Mr. and said with a smile: "The disciple knows, I will go to the market tomorrow to see, what Mr. likes to eat, I will buy it together." ”

The gentleman shook his head and did not reply to his words.

After the two hung up the last piece of meat, Li Ye picked up the basin and knife and walked to the kitchen.

The gentleman also went to the kitchen to fetch water, washed the basin and knife, and washed his hands, and the master and apprentice returned to the front of the hall.

Back in front of the hall, the water was boiled early, Li Ye sat down and began to warm the pot, wash the tea, wash the cup, and add back the tea to Mr.

Looking at the copper kettle steaming outward, Li Ye couldn't help but ask: "Sir, yesterday I unintentionally punched in the heavy rain, and there was a fist qi that broke through the rain and fog to five zhang away, somehow? Could it be that my Fuhu Arhat Fist can also practice fist qi? I haven't heard the old monk master say it?"

The gentleman drank the tea in his hand and did not answer Li Ye's question.

Li Ye was anxious, and asked again: "Could it be that Mr. has already tried, can you solve your doubts with your disciple?"

The gentleman pointed to the cup in front of Li Yeqian and said, "Drink tea." Then he looked at the sky again.

Li Ye picked up the teacup, still puzzled in his heart, and was about to speak, but the gentleman pointed to the sky and said, "Wait for the rain!"

After speaking, he turned around and walked to the study, and after a while, he came out with a cloth bag in his hand, put it on the stage, and said: "This is the gold coin brought by the owner of the Red Sleeve Building, you asked Agui to take some for your old monk Master, this is the rest." ”

Li Ye looked at the bag in front of him, thought about it, stretched out his little hand, opened the cloth bag, counted out a hundred pieces from it unhurriedly, and put it in front of Mr.

He said seriously, "Since I practiced with my husband, I have not paid my tuition. Besides, I still owe Mr. a lot of money for medicinal herbs, which will be given to Mr. first, and then given when he earns it later. ”

The gentleman looked at the gold coin in front of him and didn't say anything, but looked at Ah Gui.

said: "Take it to the study and put it away, I will go to Tianshan with Li Ye in a few days, and I don't know when I will come back, when I am not there, this courtyard will be handed over to you, just to use these gold coins." ”

Ah Gui nodded, stepped forward to take the gold coin on the stage, and turned around and entered the gentleman's study.

The gentleman looked at Li Ye and asked, "You have practiced in the Big Buddha Temple for a few days, what have you gained?"

"The realm has not improved, and a few days ago, I had occasional feelings under the tree, and I felt that my body was more sensitive than before. Li Ye replied.

The gentleman motioned for Li Ye to let go, and then stretched out his hand to inspect the veins, slightly running the true qi, and carefully inspecting it.

"If your meridians were trickles before, now your meridians are streams, which can hold more water, do you understand?"

Li Ye nodded and said, "No wonder I feel a little stronger these days, and it is estimated that the punch I made in the rain is also the same reason." ”

The gentleman took the knife of Shicai's meat, slowly wiped it with a soft cloth, and said, "Shicai, didn't you ask what kind of knife this is?" An ordinary knife is about three feet long, and this knife is one foot and five inches long, half the size of an ordinary knife, and its weight is only two catties. ”

Said that Wu handed it over, Li Ye caught it with both hands, looked at it carefully, and saw that the whole body of the knife was black and bright, brighter than his iron armor, but lighter than the iron armor, and the blade still had faint cloud patterns, and the blade was like autumn frost, revealing coldness.

The gentleman took it, slashed at the fallen leaves outside the hall, and then retracted the knife. Ah Gui ran out of the hall and picked up the leaves that had fallen on the ground, only to see that a few pieces had been broken into two pieces, the breaks were neat and smooth, and the hair-blowing blades were broken.

Li Ye took the leaves in your hand, stroked the incision, and said in his heart: Can I do it with such strength?"

The gentleman seemed to know Li Ye's intentions, took the knife, and said: "This knife is nameless, I got it by accident, and I took it out just thinking that I must have a weapon to go to Tianshan Mountain to collect medicine." This sword is not suitable for you, I will find you another sword, you have learned Luohan boxing, you can also practice my swordsmanship. ”

Li Ye was overjoyed when he heard this, and replied: "This is going to cause trouble for Mr. ”

As he spoke, the sky suddenly closed with dark clouds, a gust of wind blew, and heavy rain poured down.

The gentleman glanced at Li Ye and said softly, "You have looked carefully." After saying that, he stood up, pushed away the chair, waved his sleeves, and walked into the wind and rain.

Li Ye and Ah Gui looked with wide eyes, only to see that Mr. was carrying a black knife, and at the moment he stepped into the rain, there was a faint light around him, and he walked to a stone platform in the middle of the courtyard without hurrying, stood up, raised his right hand, and waved the knife to the bamboo forest ten zhang away......

A sword qi slashed, forming an air flow in the torrential rain, slashing at a purple bamboo that danced wildly in the wind. Putting down the knife on the stone platform, the gentleman walked back to the front of the hall.

Unhurried, one step and two feet, just like Li Ye's usual steps, Mr. returned to the front of the tea table, sat down, picked up the copper kettle, and added water and charcoal. And the purple bamboo in the distance did not fall until this time.

Ah Gui was stunned and forgot to close his open mouth.

Li Ye turned his head and noticed that there was not a drop of rain on Mr. Yes's robe and hair. Xindao: This is the legendary talisman true qi?

The gentleman looked at Li Ye's contemplative appearance and said, "This is the enhancement of true qi, which is called Gang Qi. It stands to reason that after you build the foundation, you can release your true qi, but I don't want you to bully others, so I didn't teach you to practice. Now that you have realized it yourself in the rain, you can try to practice the true qi to leave the body and protect the body. ”

Li Ye was overjoyed, left the tea table, rolled up his sleeves, and rushed towards the storm.

Thinking about the true qi in the meridians, Li Ye, who wanted to be like Mr., just rushed into the rain and drenched a soup chicken.

It's just that he didn't care, but he was angry and dantian, with a horse and a body, his front hand was like a bow, and the horse walked steadily, and he played the Fuhu Arhat fist in the courtyard.

Fuhu Arhat Fist means to control the dragon and tiger, refine oneself and hold the heart, reconcile yin and yang, gather the righteousness of heaven and earth, practice masculine energy, and the power of the primordial spirit, like the King Kong Arhat is invincible and invincible.

At the beginning of the momentum, due to the violent wind and rain blowing on the body, the fists and feet could not be stretched, and the strength could not be carried out of the body as usual.

When I had to fight again, and then hit it a second time, the meridians in my body seemed to have woken up, and a faint true qi rushed out of my body, and with each punch, there was a white air flow that hit the rain and mist with the strength of the punch. It's just a little worse than the heat, and it can't protect the body.

The fight was rising, Li Ye picked up the black knife that Mr. put on the stone platform, punched the knife, punched the knife with his left hand, and swung the knife with his right hand, not caring about the distance between the knives.

Suddenly, the punch in front of his house yesterday came to mind, and the true qi of his whole body gathered his right arm, and he followed the appearance of Mr., and slashed towards the bamboo forest with all his might......

This knife is not amazing, and even when Mr. talked about it many years later, Li Ye couldn't remember it.

However, this knife gathered all the true qi of Li Yezhuji's triple foundation, condensed the essence of Li Ye's Fuhu Arhat Fist, and gathered the aura of heaven and earth at this moment.

This knife cut through the heavy rainstorm, condensed a white knife gang, and slashed at the purple bamboo forest two zhang away.

I saw more than a dozen purple bamboos in the storm, cut off at the waist, and fell neatly to the ground, just like the rice harvested in autumn.

Looking at the knife he swung, Li Ye was dumbfounded.

Looking at Li Ye cutting through the rain and mist, Mr. and Agui were also stunned, speechless for a long time.

Li Ye retracted his fist, retracted his knife, and stood in the rain.

At this moment, the storm washed over his thin body, and large raindrops dripped down the nameless blade to the ground.

A hair of black hair tied with silk thread had fallen over his shoulders, and although there were raindrops, they were blown away by the strong wind.
