Chapter 18 of the Emperor of the People
Shuramon
Outside the east window of the library building, a red candle stands on the edge of the window and swings in the wind, as if it will be swept down by the wind at any time, and the candle flame has already been blown out by the wind, but whether there is a fire or not does not affect the meaning of his existence.
Luo Qian was already waiting in the small pavilion on the top of the mountain, and practiced the thousand-character sword technique for a while, and then Steward Zhao slowly appeared on the mountain road. "I thought the old man had forgotten the agreement." secretly slandered in his heart, but he didn't dare to slack off at his feet, and trotted all the way to Steward Zhao to greet him.
The two came to the small pavilion together, and Steward Zhao sat on the stone bench with an expressionless face. Steward Zhao knew in his heart that although Luo Qian had been defeated again and again in his hands, his swordsmanship was improved quickly, but in terms of the use of sword moves, he could be regarded as entering the house.
Luo Qian smiled with a smile on his face: "Lord Steward, there are some unclear points in the disciple's practice of the Thousand Character Sword Technique, please also ask the Lord Steward to solve your doubts." Steward Zhao insisted on not letting Luo Qian call him master, and Luo Qian had no choice but to comply.
Steward Zhao asked, "What's unclear?" ”
"The disciple is dull, although he has practiced the sword technique freely, but he always feels that the change of moves is a little jerky, and he can't be handy between the importance and urgency. The disciple was puzzled, so he had to ask the steward. ”
Steward Zhao nodded, approving in his heart, Luo Qian can see that the problem of his swordsmanship is really rare, most people who have studied martial arts since ancient times can see the shortcomings of others, and do not know their own shortcomings.
Steward Zhao asked, "How is your internal cultivation?" ”
Luo Qian scratched the back of his head with one hand and was a little embarrassed: "Although the disciple has internal strength, he doesn't know how to use it." Steward Zhao was a little surprised: "But why?" ”
Luo Qian immediately told Steward Zhao about Chen's sleeping skills, and Steward Zhao stretched out his hand to stroke Luo Qian's dantian, Luo Qian only felt that his lower abdomen was hot, and a hot air came out of the dantian. Steward Zhao was surprised: "Your sleeping skill is really mysterious, you can demonstrate it again." ”
Luo Qian didn't dare to hesitate, and calmly ran the sleep work on Zhou Tian, and Steward Zhao stretched out his hand to test Luo Qian many times before letting Luo Qian stop
"Your internal strength has been a small success, which is really rare, since ancient times, if you don't practice martial arts, you will end up empty. You are already superhuman in terms of internal strength, but you have never been able to use the method, and you have no gold and jade in your body, but you can't wield it freely. I'm just sparring with you, but I also find it strange why you never use your internal strength for sword moves, I see. ”
Steward Zhao thought for a while, "You wait a while, I'll come when I go." ”
Luo Qian waited in the small pavilion, about a cup of tea, and Steward Zhao swept up the small pavilion in the air. Standing on his feet, he took out a secret book from his arms: "This secret book is the Taoist method of practicing qi, and your sleeping skill is also a Taoist lineage, the two just complement each other, and it is quite unique in the use of internal strength, you can take it back and understand it." On the cover of the cheats is written the words "Qi Ti Yuanliu".
Luo Qian said embarrassedly: "Lord Steward, the disciple has never studied, this martial arts secret book is full of metaphors, the disciple is afraid that he will not be able to comprehend on his own, and he needs to explain it to me." Luo Qian thought to himself, the opportunity to ask the three times is precious, and the red candle has been lit today, of course, people must make the best use of it.
Steward Zhao scolded with a smile: "You little slippery head, the old man still doesn't know your mind?" It's okay, the old man will explain it to you, so that you don't have some bad ideas. ”
This book is very unique in terms of internal strength, the internal strength of the breath is called the innate Qi, people need to screen out distracting thoughts when practicing internal strength, the mind is calm, the spirit is fixed, the spirit is determined, and the essence and blood in the body are tempered with internal breath, so that the essence of the Qi is transformed into Qi, the Qi is transformed into God, and the spirit is turned into void, so that the qi and blood can be full. The root of Chen Tuo's sleep gong is also the method of practicing qi, when the internal breath runs on the week, it drives his own qi and blood to run, so that the qi and blood can be triggered by themselves. One of the two focuses on the refining of the essence of the blood, and the other focuses on the operation of the qi engine, complementing each other.
Steward Zhao explained the cheats word by word, and when Luo Qian was puzzled, he used his own internal force to demonstrate it. After some explanation, Luo Qianfang's internal strength is magical, when his moves are converted, he is jerky, and he can't change at will between priorities and urgency, the reason is that there is no internal force traction, the sword move is the main, the internal force is the auxiliary, and the internal force runs through it to make the finger arm.
The two of them taught and practiced until dawn, and only then finished the whole secret book, the source of Qi body is broad and profound, and he also knows a little about Chen Shu's sleeping skills, although he has been enlightened by Zhao Steward, but the subtleties still need to be understood by themselves, and how to penetrate the internal force of a move may be close to the enemy.
The sun was high before the two of them went down the mountain and left.
Returning to his residence, Luo Qian took a short rest and took out the Qi body source flow to comprehend, trying to invoke the internal force of the dantian according to the book, and after several attempts, he was able to circulate the internal force around his body. However, when using swordsmanship, the operation of the internal force of one move and one type is different, and the power of the sword move is also different.
Luo Qian thought about it for a while and made up his mind, it would be better to find Steward Zhao to practice against him, so as to hone the cooperation between his internal strength and sword moves. Then the voice of the scoundrel in the library sounded again.
"I heard that the steward's martial arts are strong, and the kid is itchy for a while, and I want to confirm it with Your Excellency, and I hope to give advice!"
Steward Zhao's scalp was a little numb, he had just taught all night last night, and this kid was in a hurry to challenge him. But it's helpless, who makes him love and doesn't want to hurt him.
Luo Qian has just learned the method of internal force operation, and he has not been able to retract and release it freely, this move is full of energy, and the sword qi is agitated, which makes the tables and chairs in the library building collapse, and Steward Zhao is afraid that Luo Qian will not be able to handle the library building, so he has to go outside the door to discuss with him.
Steward Zhao shook his head secretly, you must know that the internal force is stored in the dantian, and it needs to be transferred from the dantian when it is running, but the dantian underwear is also limited, and when the internal force is exhausted, you need to meditate and pranayama to recover. Such wanton squandering cannot last, and the so-called too prosperous is difficult to keep.
When the fight reached the tenth move, Luo Qian felt that the dantian was empty, and the meridians of his body were sorely and painfully under the impact of internal force, and the copper-skinned scoundrel turned into a soft-footed shrimp, and was knocked to the ground by Steward Zhao. After this battle, I realized that the use of internal force should be like a long stream of water, and it can be retracted and released freely under the continuous flow.
After March, in front of the library building.
Luo Qianzheng and Steward Zhao competed in martial arts, and the other trial disciples must have long been accustomed to the two of them, and they didn't bother to watch. Luo Qian made a sword with a bamboo pole in his hand, and his moves were unpredictable, sometimes the sword qi was gushing, sometimes it was light and free, and when the moves were converted, he was free to sway between the priorities and urgency, and when he was heavy, he was thunderous, and when he was light, he was a dragonfly.
Steward Zhao saw the move, and also flipped a bamboo pole up and down, and resolved Luo Qian's moves with a single blow between advance and retreat, and took the initiative to attack Luo Qianhui sword defense from time to time, and the offensive and defensive momentum of the two was between Steward Zhao.
The two of them tossed and turned, and their bodies changed and changed for thirty moves, Steward Zhao seemed to have lost interest, and the sword momentum changed, and the bamboo pole was stirred in his hand and twisted towards Luo Qian, and this sword made Steward Zhao's momentum also changed, as if the king was unstoppable in the world, and the momentum turned sharply, Luo Qian didn't know how to resist, so he could only retreat in a hurry.
Zhao Guan Shi made the four swords of "leading the guests to return to the king" in the thousand-character swordsmanship, but the momentum was completely different from Luo Qian's when he made the move, Luo Qian was taken by Zhao Guan Shi's momentum and sword move messed up the rules, and was hit by Zhao Guan with a bamboo pole in the chest and fell to the ground.
Steward Zhao put away the bamboo pole and went back to the library, Luo Qian got up from the ground and rubbed his chest with his hands to relieve the severe pain. Carefully recalling the situation when Steward Zhao took out the sword just now, when the sword was used, Steward Zhao seemed to have changed a person, and the usually gentle old man seemed to have become a generation of kings dominating the world, unstoppable, terrifying.
Lying on the bed late at night and thinking about it repeatedly, Luo Qian seemed to have glimpsed a hint of the door, could it be that the thousand-character swordsmanship has a change in momentum in addition to the change of moves.
The next day, Luo Qian did not ask Manager Zhao for advice, but lit a candle outside the east window of the library building. At the second watch, Steward Zhao arrived as scheduled, and Luo Qian was already waiting in the small pavilion as usual.
"Thank you for the grace of the steward, the disciple has understood."
Steward Zhao smiled: "Oh? What did you realize? Let's hear it. ”
"Today's steward's last four swords, the momentum is completely different from before, that momentum is the same as the emperor's patrol with the spirit of a king, although the disciple can crack the four swordsmanship, but he is captured by the momentum, and he can't afford to resist a little, it is not the thousand-character swordsmanship and the change of momentum."
Steward Zhao smiled with relief: "Not bad! Not bad! You can teach, you're right, but you're not right. ”
Luo Qian immediately bowed and said sincerely: "Please also ask the steward to solve your doubts!" ”
"It's not just a thousand-character sword technique that has a powerful change, no matter the sword and fist in the world's martial arts, there are four realms divided into "moves, qi, potential, and Tao." Beginners are mainly based on moves, and after the moves are proficient, they should control the moves with internal strength, and after the internal strength and moves are integrated, they need to perform the momentum, and the ultimate is the way. People who learn martial arts in the world, eight or nine out of ten can be proficient in moves, five or six out of ten can control moves with qi, less than one in a hundred can comprehend the changes of potential, and there are only two or three people in the world who can achieve the Tao. The steward replied slowly
When Luo Qian heard that he had asked the steward to confirm his conjecture, he was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly saluted: "Please also ask the steward to teach me the changes in the situation and the Tao." ”
I didn't want to find a steward but shook my head and said: "The change of potential is extremely mysterious, and it is no longer something that others can teach. The changes in the Tao are mysterious and mysterious, and I am afraid that I will not be able to touch them in this life. A hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
Luo Qian was still puzzled in his heart, why did Steward Zhao say that he couldn't teach it because he had clearly used the change of momentum during the day.
Steward Zhao seemed to see through Luo Qian's thoughts, and said, "Let me ask you, the river is endless, and the abyss is taken, what is the explanation?" ”
Xiao Ling explained every sentence of the thousand-character text to him, and replied without hesitation: "The water of the river not only flows forever, the water of the pond is clear and clear, and the virtue of people should also extend to the descendants like the river, such as the clear and clear of the pond." ”
Steward Zhao nodded: "Yes, what is the sword intent of these eight swordsmanship?" ”
Luo Qian didn't know what to mean when he heard the word sword intent for the first time, but he had already integrated the eight sword techniques, and after thinking about it, he tried to reply: "The first four sword moves flow endlessly, and the last four sword moves are light and clear. ”
Steward Zhao nodded again: "These four swordsmanship are all based on the change of water as the sword intent, the water is impermanent, it can be slow or urgent, it can be soft or rigid, the sky and the earth change color when it is galloping, and the wind and waves are calm when it is quiet, but if the person who practices the sword has not seen the rushing of water, how can he practice the sword intent of galloping, and the momentum of galloping is impossible to talk about." If you want to comprehend the changes in the situation, experience, talent, and perception are indispensable, and they are definitely not something that others can guide you to. ”
