Chapter 115: Cooking Wine and Discussing Swords
Outside the gable, the wind hunts, the fire in the ancestral courtyard is raging, and everyone sits on the ground and talks about wine.
Talking about martial arts, talking about rivers and lakes, grievances are endless.
With the strength of Xiao Ding, Drunken Daoren and others, they are not afraid that the murderer will come again, even if the leader of the Money Gang comes in person, he may not be able to bargain, I am afraid that they will not come!
Sikong Jieyue seemed to be slightly drunk, and he squinted his eyes and asked, "Dare to ask Dao Chief, which are the five fastest five fast swords in the rivers and lakes today?" ”
The drunken Taoist deserves to be called the drunken Taoist, he has drunk more wine than anyone else, but he seems to be the most sober. Sikong Jieyue originally planned to come to Liu Yunfei and Xuanyuan not only to drink, so he brought a few large jars of good wine, but now there is not much left.
The drunken Taoist stopped drinking and said indifferently: "The first one is Kuaijian Lu Xiaojia, but in the past few years, he has gone to the outside of the border to track down the real culprit, and he doesn't ask about trivial matters in the rivers and lakes, which can be said to be a state of semi-retirement; The second is the nephew of the poor road, Liu Changfeng under the Wudang sect, he is obsessed with martial arts, practicing swords for more than 30 years, and his attainments in swordsmanship have long been out of the blue, I heard that he and Lu Xiaojia have compared swordsmanship once, and after losing, he has been practicing hard, and in the past ten years, his swordsmanship has advanced by leaps and bounds, and it is not the same as in the past. “
Liu Changfeng and Lu Xiaojia compared swords, Xiao Ding and others have heard Ye Rongqiu talk about it, when the drunken Taoist mentioned the name Lu Xiaojia, Xiao Ding inevitably had a burst of emotions, there was longing, and there was also pride, his father had not been out of the rivers and lakes for many years, but he was still the first fast sword in the rivers and lakes, what a majestic thing.
Tang Qingqing asked, "What about the remaining three?" “
Xiao Ding said with a smile: "There is of course the Taoist himself, it is said that the Taoist is also a martial arts idiot, all his life dedicated to the way of the sword, because of the obsession with martial arts and gave up taking over the Wudang faction, perhaps in recent years has understood the highest level of swordsmanship, and then reappeared in the rivers and lakes." “
The drunken Daoist smiled and shook his head and said, "The poor Dao is indeed the highest state of having comprehended the way of the sword, but comprehension does not mean that I have reached this realm, and I may not be able to practice to the highest level in my lifetime. “
Sikong Jieyue asked, "What is the highest level of kendo?" “
Ye Rongqiu took it with a light smile and said: "Abandon the sword moves, only leave the sword intent, and those who have the heart to reach the sword can be regarded as an extremely high realm." There is no sword in the hand, there is a sword in the heart, and the sword is born from the heart, and reaching this step can be regarded as the highest state of swordsmanship. “
The drunken Taoist sighed: "Yes, there is no sword in my hand, there is a sword in my heart, the sword is me, I am the sword, how easy it is to reach this step, for hundreds of years, there are only one or two people on the rivers and lakes who have practiced to the highest level, not to mention that there is the supreme 'divine realm' after this highest realm, it can be seen that the way of martial arts is endless." “
"Divine Realm?" Sikong Jieyue had never heard of this kind of statement, and he asked blankly.
"There is no sword in your hand, there is no sword in your heart, there is no sword without me! No matter which sect of swordsmanship it is, if it is cultivated to this point, it has reached the realm of the unity of heaven and man, so it is called the divine realm, because this is not a realm that people can practice. Xiao Ding took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, he couldn't help but sigh, because he felt in his heart that at least one person had practiced to this realm.
"No self, no sword......" Sikong Jieyue chewed this sentence anyway, he suddenly remembered that day under the big tree by the stream, there was an old man in gray, he was standing casually in the shade of the tree, and he didn't have a sword on his body, but his whole person was like a sword......
"I seem to have met one of these people, and he doesn't have a sword in his hand, but his whole person looks like a sword, standing there quietly, but there is no empty door in his whole body." Sikong picks the moon and feels scared when he thinks about it.
The meaning of the empty door is the open door, in the eyes of the masters, every fatal position is an empty door, they can attack the opponent from the empty door, if you want to defend, you must close the empty door, so whoever has the faster sword, who has a chance to win.
"That man, what does he look like?" Xiao Ding was suddenly a little excited, and he was a little trembling when he spoke.
Sikong Jieyue looked at Xiao Ding in surprise, he had never seen Xiao Ding so excited, did he know the old man in gray?
"At that time, I was targeted by the Nanguan brothers, and I just fought ......," Sikong Jieyue recounted the events of that day one by one.
"Could it be him, is it really his old man......" Xiao Ding lost his eyes and muttered.
Tang Qingqing slapped Xiao Ding's shoulder suddenly: "Could it be that you know the old man in gray?" “
Xiao Ding woke up from his trance and sighed: "Maybe I'm thinking too much, his old man has been retired for many years, and the dragon can't see the head but the end, how can he appear here, even my master can't see him once in a few years." Between the words, he even envied Sikong Picking the Moon, as if it was a great honor to be able to see the person he thought.
The drunken Taoist stared at Xiao Ding and said slowly, "Do you suspect that the man in gray is a flying swordsman?" “
"Flying swordsman? Hoodlum...... Old-timer? Sikong Jieyue exclaimed, if the man in gray was really Ah Fei, then wouldn't he miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? How many young knights in the rivers and lakes want to see the demeanor of this peerless swordsman, but he misses it? At the very least, at least invite him to a drink and talk about his admiration. Sikong Picking Moon has an urge to shoot himself to death.
Xiao Ding smiled lightly: "I just think there are not many people with that kind of bearing in this world, maybe it's just because I want to see him in my heart and have a conjecture." “
Tang Qingqing shook his hand and said softly: "As long as you want to see him, you will see him sooner or later, maybe his old man also wants to see you, maybe one day he will suddenly appear in front of you." “
Xiao Ding glanced at her gratefully, exhaled slowly, and sighed: "If there is a swordsman in this world who can practice to the 'Divine Realm', then this person must be a flying swordsman." “
Drunken Daodao: "What about Jing Wulife? Can't he practice to the 'Divine Realm'? “
"I think that martial arts practitioners must be sincere and righteous, not only for the sword itself, but also for all things in the world, Zi said: 'A gentleman has three fears: fear of the mandate of heaven, fear of the great, fear of the words of the saint', it can be seen that reverence for life and the rules of nature is followed by the way of heaven. Jing Wusheng but indifferent to life and the opposite, he not only disregards the lives of others, killing people like mustard, even if it is his own life, how can he ever cherish it, so even if he practices swordsmanship to the supreme realm, it is just a 'demon realm', it is a demon realm, there must be a demon barrier, and sooner or later it will be counterattacked. Xiao Ding slowly took a sip of wine and expressed his opinion.
Xiao Ding's views have transcended the way of the sword and sublimated to the realm of life, nature, and the way of heaven, and everyone sitting here is full of emotion.
"The Flying Swordsman has also killed people, why can he practice to the 'Divine Realm', but Jing Wusheng can only practice to the 'Demon Realm'?" Ye Rongqiu's tone was a little cold, no wonder, who told Xiao Ding and Tang Qingqing to frown in front of her just now.
Xiao Ding said with a smile: "Because the flying swordsman obeys the way of heaven and fears the destiny of heaven, I heard from the master that the flying swordsman is not only full of awe of life, he is even in awe of a meal and a grain of rice. “
"WTO accession?" Ye Rongqiu was puzzled.
"Entering the WTO does not fall, birth does not fall, grinding does not phosphorus, nirvana does not bind. He had comprehended everything that he had to experience in the mortal world, but in the end he had returned to the original state, and it seemed that everything had changed, but he himself had not changed, so he was able to cultivate his swordsmanship to the 'divine realm'. What Xiao Ding said was like a monk playing a sharp edge, and after listening to everyone, he felt endless aftertaste.
"Taught!" The drunken Taoist bowed his head, and only he felt that what Xiao Ding just said was infinitely useful, so he sincerely expressed his gratitude.
Xiao Ding looked at the drunken Taoist and smiled: "If my guess is correct, the Taoist is now in the stage of 'joining the WTO', right?" ”
The drunken Taoist laughed and said, "Ding Shaoxia can't help but look down on the poor Dao too much. ”
