After another half a month, Yue Feng's sword practice was so-so, and it could only be regarded as decent. Yue Jian has already begun to withdraw his savings and seek people who can use them.

One afternoon, the busy Liu Sheng was invited by Yue Jian to come to Yue's house. Liu Sheng is forty-two this year, has an only daughter who is married, and has been the commander of the county soldiers for many years. Because he is honest and easy-going, he is very good with the county soldiers and county soldiers.

Everyone knows that Liu Sheng's knife skills are very good, but they don't know how good they are. Liu Sheng is a good drinker, once he drinks, he is easy to get drunk and unconscious, but Liu Sheng is the commander of the county soldiers and rarely drinks. As an official and businessman who made armor, Yue Jian also often dealt with Liu Sheng, and in order to drink alcohol, Yue Jian also helped him plead with the county many times. So after going back and forth, the two became close friends.

For Yue Feng, Liu Sheng, he always felt that he was more than smart and not tenacious. And Yue Feng, who is rich in food and clothing, has always been teaching himself, that is, more than seven points have been completed, and eight points are insufficient.

Therefore, Liu Sheng has not done his best. This time, Yue Jian had to invite Liu Sheng to come to guide Yue Feng, but Liu Sheng was still very willing, after all, he could still mix a good meal of wine and drink a big meal.

Liu Sheng was anxious to have dinner with Yue Jian, so he made up his mind to chat with Yue Feng casually.

Liu Sheng pushed the door and entered, and saw that this kid Yue Feng was practicing calligraphy. Liu Sheng saw that although the calligraphy written by Yue Feng was sloppy, it had the feeling of a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing with a sword and a sword, so he asked, "Present a token to you?"

Yue Feng grabbed the paper, put it in his arms, and said, "Master, you are an apprentice martial arts exam, right?"

Liu Sheng still remembered the words just now, and said: "I haven't seen you for many days, but your words have some flavor." I don't know how well you practice, come, let's go to the courtyard. ”

Yue Feng thought to himself, I'm a person who has practiced wild grass. However, the master has a smooth life and will never be the chosen one. As for these words, as long as I don't mention them, he should have forgotten them quickly.

The two came to the courtyard, and Yue Feng danced the knife first, sweating. However, Yue Feng is no longer the same as before, although his dancing is not elegant, but there is a wave of anger mixed with the knife, because Yue Feng feels that the dance knife has to be ruthless.

Liu Sheng couldn't help nodding and said, "It's decent." You chop wood, I'll see. ”

Yue Feng picked up the big knife, feeling a little weird, and still chopped it down, and the firewood cracked in response.

Liu Sheng pursed his lips, looking dissatisfied. Yue Feng took another firewood, and the second knife went down, and Liu Sheng's eyes lit up.

Yue Feng said, "Master, how is it?"

Liu Sheng said: "Yes, continue to work hard." Then he was ready to leave.

Yue Feng knew that if he didn't trap Liu Sheng, he really wouldn't be able to learn the knife technique, so he said, "Master, I have something to ask you." ”

Liu Sheng waited there, and Yue Feng continued: "The master taught me to chop wood, but only taught me the method of exerting force with the whole body, not the real Liu family knife." In fact, it depends on my lack of hard work, lack of momentum, and lack of strength to grasp what is meant by strength. In fact, as far as I can estimate, this chopping wood is a way to cultivate the Liu family knife, right?"

Liu Sheng looked around, there was no one, and said, "What else do you think?" ”

Yue Feng said with a smile: "The knife has always focused on grandeur, and it is mostly a common weapon for marching and fighting. And the knife is both long and thick, far heavier than the sword, a knife slash, if you can gather the strength of the whole body, it will be brave and invincible. ”

Liu Sheng smiled and said nothing.

Yue Feng knew that his words had aroused Liu Sheng's interest, but these were far from enough. Then he continued: "But these are all prejudices, if the knife is used in this way, it is a knife method, what is the difference between it and an axe for chopping wood? Making full use of the advantages and characteristics of the knife is the way to kill the enemy and defeat the enemy." ”

Liu Sheng was quite interested, and said with a bit of a sense of teaching: "How do you think you can practice?"

Yue Feng said: "Let's not talk about how to practice, let's talk about knives." The knife has two sides, a blade on one side and a thick iron on the other. The knife is thick and heavy, and if you want to take advantage of the knife, you have to start from several aspects. The first is the knife momentum, the momentum of the indomitable force to split Huashan. The second is the blade, so that the person who makes the knife can release the knife momentum, and should also be able to retract the knife momentum and transform the blade, which requires the judgment of strength and distance. Otherwise, it is difficult to do it with such a knife with such a large inertia. The third is the defense of the knife. The back of the knife and the blade are tough and heavy, and the knife can both chop and defend, and once so, it will be invincible. And these three points, first of all, the whole body needs to be strong enough, only the strength is enough, in order to advance and retreat, and then the persistence, the knife is heavy, and most people think that it cannot last, so it must be strengthened and lasting, in order to retreat from the whole body. Finally, it is accurate, how big the knife is, but if you can accurately judge the sword that the opponent is stabbing, you can not only hit its weak point with the sword, but also protect yourself when you are caught off guard. ”

Liu Sheng laughed and said, "Okay, what you said is right, it seems that you don't have your own thoughts on this matter." So, what is the practice of chopping wood?"

Yue Feng said: "I guess that the matter of chopping firewood is to exercise strength, raise the strength from the feet, legs, waist, back, shoulders, arms and wrists, and gradually accumulate and explode to reach the knife momentum." The second is to practice for a long time, swing the knife with all your strength for an hour every day, and the staying power will naturally rise. The third is to practice precision, if you see a wood grain, the knife will fall this pattern, that is accurate, if you can cut the knife down, the same traces, it will be more accurate. ”

Liu Sheng was even happier and said: "You are very right, in fact, there is another point, that is, to be familiar with your knife, only through continuous chopping, you can feel the sharpness of every point of your knife, and the strength that can be exerted at every point." Of course, after you've practiced the first few points, you need a really good knife. ”

After Liu Sheng led Yue Feng into the house, Zhengse said: "Disciple, the knife of the Liu family is divided into three types, namely: the knife of momentum, the knife of twisting, and the knife of defense. In fact, these three kinds of things you said are almost the same, this is what my family's ancestor Sword King realized in the enemy. When he first entered the rivers and lakes, he met ordinary people, relying on the strength of the knife, and then encountering a strong hand, a reliable twisted knife, unexpectedly. In the end, when you encounter a master, it is the sword of defense. Later, the ancestors could use the three sword techniques at any time during the First World War, and eventually became one of the masters. ”

Yue Feng said: "The sword of momentum can chop wood for cultivation, twisting and defense?"

Liu Sheng laughed and said, "Then the master has to teach you." Starting tomorrow, I will come to teach you in the morning, and after half a year, I think it will be almost the same, and the rest is up to you. By the way, this knife will be given to you as well. This is the knife of my ancestors, don't look ordinary, but in fact it is extremely sharp, I have been chopping this knife for more than 30 years, and I don't even have a blade. ”

Yue Feng was overjoyed, and took the knife with great effort: "Disciple, thank the master." ”

Yue Feng swept the sword, although it was slightly shorter than his own sword, but it was much heavier than his nameless sword, so he asked, "This is not made of meteoric iron, is it?

Liu Shengdao: "Sure enough, the armor manufacturing family, this knife is hit by meteoric iron, weighing twenty-four catties, but it has a name, called the Wood Splitting Treasure Knife." ”

Yue Feng fainted and said, "Master, can I name myself?"

Liu Sheng said: "Of course, I went to your father to drink." I'm probably going to drink too much again today. ”

After speaking, Liu Sheng laughed, patted Yue Feng, and went to find Yue Jian.
