Chapter 12: Accepting an apprentice for no reason.
"Daddy. Father. Father. The golden carp is a golden carp. "The little boy was playing by the river when suddenly he seemed to see something magical. Pointing to the river and yelling.
The old man suddenly came to his senses and ran over to look, and Zhong Jingke also arrived. I saw a carp in the river with a golden glow swimming in the river
"Go grab it. Don't let it run. The child shouted. made a gesture to plunge into the water, but Zhong Jingke immediately stopped it, and then submerged himself in the water. The golden carp realized that there was danger and swam very quickly, Zhong Jingke followed closely behind, and kept swimming, I don't know how long, and when it reached a cave in the water, the carp disappeared. Zhong Jingke looked at the cave in the water, it was extremely peculiar, it was obviously deep at the bottom of the water, but the water could not flow in, and when he walked into the cave, he saw the carp bouncing on the ground, and Zhong Jingke wanted to catch it.
Just as Zhong Jingke's hand was about to reach over, the fish spoke at this time. "Will you please let me go?"
Eh, this fish can still speak, it's really strange that there are many things every year, especially this year, Zhong Jingke thought to himself. Zhong Jingke was a little confused and hesitant at this time, and didn't know what to do for a while.
I saw the fish speak again: "I have gone through nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine eons. It's just the last thing missing. Let me go. ”
At this time, Zhong Jingke thought of some mythological stories and TV plots in his mind to come to a beautiful encounter. Maybe it's a youkai. Anyway, such a bizarre thing happened through the crossing. It's not strange to see a youkai again. If it is a beauty in the future, she will repay her kindness and promise it personally. Shemales fall in love and are unforgettable. Think about it not too pretty. It's a dream, too. A horizontal heart. He put the golden carp back into the water, and the golden carp quickly swam away.
The fish swam away, but at this moment Zhong Jingke was in trouble. How do you get out, ah, where is this, I have swam for so long, I don't know where to swim, and there is nothing to eat in this cave except for stones and stones, so it's strange that I don't starve to death if I go on like this. Thinking of this, Zhong Jingke's stomach suddenly became hungry. Zhong Jingke touched himself to see if there was anything to eat.
"What is this? Zhong Jingke pulled out a parchment scroll and a mirror from herself. But when you look left and right, it doesn't look like your own. I wondered where all this stuff came from
However, how can the things recorded above be so familiar, those exercises seem to have been practiced by themselves, and it seems that they have not been practiced. Some of them are similar to what my grandfather taught me before, and the story is similar. Forget it, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter where it comes from, it's mine on me anyway. Reviewing the old and learning the new, Zhong Jingke temporarily re-practiced those who understood it.
In the process of practicing, Zhong Jingke had a whim, and for convenience, he carved some basic exercises on the stones, and some paintings of the character movements that he came up with casually, and carved a total of nine stones. But Zhong Jingke didn't know that it was his casual painting, casual writing, a young boy in later generations, who coincidentally broke into this cave and looked at the picture above. I learned the basic exercises above. He has practiced a unique martial arts in the world, which is known as the Lonely Nine Swords, and this young man has been unable to defeat in his life. Nicknamed Sword Demon - Dugu seeks defeat. Of course, this is all thousands of years later.
Zhong Jingke has been here for almost a day and a night. I still didn't find my way out, and every time I swam halfway through, I was washed back by the air currents in the water. It seems easy to get in here, but it's hard to get out, think about yourself handsome and chic, your life of bohemianism, the most critical thing is that you haven't had a girlfriend yet, you haven't done anything through inexplicably, you can't think of it, and you have to die young. Let me see the beauties of ancient times.
Zhong Jingke stretched his head out from time to time and looked around in the water, at this time the water was full of all kinds of fish like running around when he was running for his life, a very big fish swam past Zhong Jingke's side, Zhong Jingke immediately grabbed the tail of the fish with his hand. With the body of the giant fish, it swam out, and suddenly the fish jumped over the water and jumped three feet. Shake off Zhong Jingke behind him. Zhong Jingke was thrown to the land. Zhong Jingke stood up slowly, and at this time, he only saw that the sky was lightning and thunder. But it didn't rain, and at the end of the river there was a golden light coming out of the water, reaching straight into the sky. After a while, it was gone. The sky was also calm, and it was very dark everywhere, and Zhong Jingke walked along the river
As I walked, I saw a small figure in the distance, looking for something by the river with a torch. Walk in and take a look,
The little boy was the first to speak: "Engong, Engong, Dad." Father. He's not dead. ”
An old man came running from a distance. Seeing Zhong Jingke, he said, "Xin'er, just say that I believe you will be fine." Be sure to come out and find you. Fortunately, the strong man Ji is a celestial appearance. I don't know where I've been in the past two days. It's all this kid, what kind of golden carp are you catching? What kind of thing can we touch? ”
Back in the thatched hut, the little boy kept pestering Zhong Jingke. Reluctant to go to sleep.
"Engong, is it good for me to worship you as a teacher, you can teach me martial arts. The little boy took Zhong Jingke's hand seriously.
Zhong Jingke replied, "How can I know any martial arts, I am all family heirlooms, and there is nothing powerful." I don't want to mislead people's children. ”
The little boy instantly had an unhappy expression: "It's so powerful, and he kicked the tiger to death." If you fall into the water, you can come back alive for a day. The little boy was about to cry.
"Alright, alright. I teach you. What are you doing when you learn martial arts? Zhong Jingke really can't stand this situation. This child's request is so sincere, and he can only agree to teach some basic exercises, although his grandfather has instructed him before, and he can't pass it on, but isn't this a crossing, no one knows. Just teach a little bit. Uh-huh. Zhong Jingke said in his heart.
The little boy said solemnly: "I will be a great general in the future and drive the Qin State out of the Six Kingdoms." If you can, you will wipe out the Qin State. If not, at least I will go into battle to kill the enemy, be a soldier, and avenge my former relatives. ”
"Then do you know what the conditions are for being a general? Zhong Jingke was also amused by the little boy's wish. Said half-jokingly.
The little boy thought for a while and said, "Go forward bravely, not afraid of life and death, but I heard that the people of the Qin State have been practicing martial arts since childhood." If you want to kill more Qin people, you must practice martial arts, and practice more than them, so I want you to teach me martial arts. ”
"It's useless to have martial arts alone, no matter how high your martial arts are, it's just the courage of a horseman, and if you want to be a general who dominates the battlefield, you must use strategy. Victory on the battlefield is ever-changing, strategizing, and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away. To be a general is not only to love soldiers like sons, but also to take the lead. You also need to have enough endurance" Zhong Jingke also suddenly thought of some words that a certain TV show had said, and laughed as he spoke, wanting to see how this kid reacted.
The little boy listened to Zhong Jingke's words very carefully, and after savoring them, he said seriously: "Yes, master, the apprentice understands." ”
"Ahem" Okay, there is another apprentice for no reason, Zhong Jingke thought of a story about the war, but he couldn't remember it very clearly. Coax the boy first, finish the story, and let him go to bed. "A long, long time ago, there was a general who was beaten to the river and was in a dilemma. The other side was several times more numerous than him, and after that, he smashed all the boats that could escape. With the determination to die, fight the enemy in a decisive battle. The war was won. Less is more. What do you get inspired by this story. ”
The little boy immediately said: "This general is very brave, he wins more with less, and I will learn from him in the future." ”
"You can't teach a child. You should think about this question first, go to sleep quickly, and I will teach you martial arts tomorrow. By the way, tell me what inspired you. Zhong Jingke thought about going to sleep and hurriedly said perfunctorily.
But I didn't know that this serious little boy thought about this question all night. I can't figure it out, why the master said that he can't be taught, is it because he misunderstood?
The next day, the little boy came to Zhong Jingke's room early. "Master, master,"
Zhong Jingke woke up in a daze.
"I thought about it for a night, but I still couldn't figure out what the problem was, so I asked the master for advice. Why did the general win, but he was wrong. The little boy looked puzzled.
Zhong Jingke woke up and fell asleep immediately. yawned, looked at this serious little boy, and was also puzzled, yesterday I also said casually, this kid is actually serious. What to do, watch him take it so seriously. I can't let him down, I have to find a way to do it. Zhong Jingke had an idea at the moment. Pretending to be unfathomable, he said slowly: "When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, although the general is brave in this war, let him win." But it's not all because of his bravery, he said one thing on the side. ”
"What's the matter. The little boy said with a anxious look, and at this moment the little boy wanted to know the answer quickly.
Zhong Jingke sighed and said: "He can win, bravery is one thing, the most important thing is that the opponent is unplanned." If you had a different opponent, the result would have been different, as I said, the way to win. A thousand times. If the opponent surrounds but does not annihilate. It's been a long time. If they starve to death, do they still need to fight? A soldier who surrenders without a fight is the highest state. Although it is powerful to win more with less, it is better to have more soldiers than fewer soldiers. ”
"What the master said is really reasonable, and the apprentice is speechless. The little boy suddenly realized.
Zhong Jingke knocked on the little boy's head and said, "Opportunities are always given to those who wait and endure." Do you understand?" I hope I didn't mislead people. Zhong Jingke was also very uncertain in his heart, thinking that he was trapped in a cave at the bottom of the river at that time, no matter how high his martial arts were, he would have to starve to death if he had nothing to eat. Probably yes.
A few years later, the boy joined the army, met a general who had won in this way, and tried to speak his mind, but was ridiculed. He was insulted, but he firmly believed in his master's words in his heart and endured it all the time. He left this army and joined another army. In the end, the general was besieged on the battlefield to Wujiang, and the general killed himself in Wujiang, these are all later stories.
