Physical arts?
In the corner of a tavern, two figures felt the noise around them and ordered two glasses of mellow rum. Taking a sip, one of them couldn't help but praise softly.
That's right, these two are Qianling and Bruce Lee, who have just finished participating in the group stage. The latter was a little eager, constantly turning the wine glass on the wooden table, looking at the former and said, "The physical technique you just mentioned, can I understand it as a way to become stronger without cultivating battle qi?" ”
On the way from the arena to the tavern, Bruce Lee's strong curiosity and many questions left a deep impression on Qianling.
However, he did not show impatience, because Bruce Lee's dedication to cultivation and his previous performance had completely touched him. Bruce Lee is not so much curious as a thirst for knowledge. To be honest, Qianling admires such a persistent person, otherwise she would not have deliberately asked him out.
Seeing Bruce Lee's eagerness, Qianling said unhurriedly: "Do you want to take a sip of wine first, the rum here is the best in Roland City." ”
Bruce Lee picked up the wine glass and drank it directly. wiped his mouth casually, and couldn't wait to say, "Okay, okay, I'm done drinking, let's talk about it." ”
"It's really an acute one."
Qianling shook her head helplessly, and finally put down her wine glass.
Seeing this, Bruce Lee immediately cheered up and stared at Qianling intently, for fear of missing a word.
Qianling put away her laziness and said, "Battle Qi is a cultivation system unique to this world. It can make people use the free aura between heaven and earth to fight, which is also the origin of the word battle qi. The cultivation of battle qi was originally to purify the mottled spiritual power of the outside world and store it. In the later stage, it is necessary to use the stored spiritual power to communicate and attract the majestic and vast external spiritual power, and to this extent, you can squeeze into the ranks of the real powerhouses. ”
Saying this, Bruce Lee interrupted him and said: "You better tell me about physical skills first, I'm more interested in this, how about we talk about the battle qi at another date?" ”
Qianling took a sip of mellow rum and smiled: "If you want to understand physical arts, you need to make a comparison with battle qi. The battle qi is focused on using the body as a furnace, and in the limited space of the human body, it is filled with the purest spiritual energy possible. The human body itself only needs to be strong enough to be a furnace. In physical arts, the opposite is true. Physical skills emphasize the basic combat qi to cooperate with the high load of body functions. It stands to reason that Battle Qi is also of great benefit to physical arts cultivators. However, it plays more of a role as a regulator. ”
Hearing this, Bruce Lee seemed to have caught something in an instant, and said hurriedly: "Are you talking about the relationship between battle qi and physical arts?" In this way, physical skills are also inseparable from battle qi? ”
Qianling recalled: "For physical arts, I also saw some incomplete records in the ancient books left by my grandfather. It is said that a long time ago, there were not a few practitioners of somatic arts. They cultivated Battle Qi in order to serve the cultivation of physical arts. However, by now, the true complete physical art inheritance is almost extinct, and it is difficult to find it again. ”
"Why is that?"
Bruce Lee was puzzled.
Qianling took a big sip of wine, shook her head and said, "It's a pity that the real situation can't be verified, and the record of physical skills in Grandpa's ancient books is only a few words. But there are several theories circulating in the world, one of which is the most widespread, saying that the practice of physical arts is not suitable for human beings at all. The earliest practitioners of physical arts were actually demon clans that transformed into humans, because the demon clan was a group that was known for its physique and transformation techniques. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, and looked at Bruce Lee with a strange look in his eyes.
He was a little uncomfortable looking at him. Thinking of an operation in a certain country in his previous life, Bruce Lee couldn't help but glance at Qianling and said, "Put away your strange eyes and speak well." ”
Qianling spread her hands, signaling that she didn't mean anything else, and then continued: "It is rumored that many physical arts cultivators are regarded as demons. What's more, it is said that it has infiltrated the human world for some ulterior purpose. In the end, the peak powerhouses of human warfare joined forces to destroy the body art cultivators and destroy many related inheritances. As a result, it has been rare to see a practitioner of physical arts. ”
Bruce Lee listened very carefully, frowned deeply at this time, and said angrily: "Nonsense." ”
"You now know why I'm surprised to see you, don't you? I don't think much is known to the outside world about the practice of physical arts. But there is one thing that is widely circulated. It is a real physical art cultivator, known as invincible at the same level. ”
Qianling Road.
After listening to Qianling's words, Bruce Lee fell into deep thought. If physical skills really exist, then there should also be a division of strength similar to battle qi. If, according to Qianling's words, battle qi and physical skills are inextricably linked, then if you want to go further, you must start with battle qi. And he also wanted to know if his physical ability could be regarded as the result of physical cultivation.
Seeing this, Qianling didn't bother him, just tasted the wine silently, and seemed to be thinking about something.
After a long time, Bruce Lee raised his head again and asked, "What level of battle qi cultivator do you think my physical ability can compare?" ”
Qian Ling thought for a moment and said very seriously: "Judging from the strength shown before, there is no doubt about the ninth stage of primary qi. ”
Hearing this, he thought of the feeling of being released after the battle with Qianling. It's like taking off an invisible armor from the body, and the whole person becomes more free than ever.
Asked Qianling some questions again, but his understanding of physical arts was limited to this, and he couldn't completely solve his doubts. Sincerely grateful to Qianling, Bruce Lee felt that this was a respectable opponent.
After drinking the last sip of wine, Qianling smacked her lips in satisfaction, and joked that Bruce Lee was rude when he drank. The latter raised his chin absently and said with a smile: "I drink as much as fighting, simple and direct." Then, the two looked at each other and smiled, admiring each other.
Before leaving, Qianling solemnly told Bruce Lee that she hoped that he would have a future on this road. The latter also gave an affirmative reply, since he was sure that the physical technique really existed, he would definitely stick to it to the end. However, in any case, it is imperative to start contact with the war spirit as soon as possible. After all, according to Qianling, physical cultivation is a broken road, and it is difficult to smooth sailing.
Leaving the tavern, Bruce Lee pondered as he walked towards the hotel. Although Qianling failed to completely solve her doubts, she clarified a direction for herself. Sooner or later, he will have to unlock the secrets of the physical arts.
After crossing several large roads, the crowds on the streets began to thin out. Immersed in his own world, Bruce Lee walked through the vast alleys almost by feeling.
There was no one around, and the original hustle and bustle seemed to have stopped. The road he had walked was just a narrow back alley, but it wasn't so much that there wasn't even one left.
Bruce Lee suddenly felt that something was wrong, and instinct made him alert. As soon as he turned around, a few figures walked out of the corner.
Looking at them, Bruce Lee instantly understood that he was probably being targeted.
"In such a hurry, where are you going?"
The person who came stared at Bruce Lee with a smile.
The latter frowned, and said with some surprise: "Xiao Mu..."
It turned out that the one who took the lead in blocking Bruce Lee's way was Xiao Mu from Xiaojia Village. Not only that, in addition to the Blue Eagle he had seen before, there were two other people he was very familiar with.
"Miyazawa Yu, Xinyue, I can't imagine that the two of you have the leisure to hang out with this kind of person."
Bruce Lee said in a deep voice.
Miyazawa glanced at Bruce Lee casually, almost as if nothing was there. Then he said to Xiao Mu with a cold expression: "Let me bring Sister Xinyue, just to make a move on this kind of goods, you deliberately insult me?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Mu twitched his cheeks and said with a smile: "Brother Miyazawa's strength is the best in the competition, and other teams are indeed difficult to get into the eyes of the law." But Brother Miyazawa doesn't know, this person has just defeated your opponent Qianling, and..."
In order to attract Miyazawa Yu's attention, Xiao Mu deliberately paused. Obviously, the former was very enjoyable by his insignificant slap, his expression softened slightly, and asked, "And what?" ”
Xiao Mu sneered in his heart, but said with a pretended gesture on his face: "Moreover, he has not cultivated battle qi. ”
As soon as these words came out, even Xin Yue on the side couldn't help but look at Bruce Lee curiously.
However, it was her casual glance that made Miyazawa Yu very unhappy. Finally, Miyazawa Yu squinted at Bruce Lee and said interrogatively: "Xiao Mu is lying?" ”
"Hit or roll, and talk less nonsense with me."
replied without fear, he never had a good face for this kind of person.
Obviously, everyone underestimated Bruce Lee's arrogance. Especially Miyazawa Yu, his eyes were so cold that he seemed to kill people, and he said: "You are looking for death!" ”
Bruce Lee indifferently stretched out a finger to him, shook it casually, and then said word by word: "You... No... Okay..."
"Dead"
However, before Bruce Lee's words fell, Miyazawa Yu was already furious, and rushed forward after shouting.
Seeing this, the happiest person was Xiao Mu, and before he could further agitate, Bruce Lee himself angered Miyazawa Yu.
"Isn't it easy to use guns?"
However, a smug smile had just appeared on his face, and the soft voice made him shiver.
Stiffly turned his head, only to see Xinyue looking at him with a smile. The young, but beautiful and moving face was next to him. He could even smell the delicate scent of the girl's hair.
However, at this moment, Xiao Mu didn't have time to feel this beauty, so he hurriedly took two steps back, looked at Miyazawa Yu with a weak heart, and responded: "Fairy Xinyue said that it was funny, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and I also want to clear the obstacles for the two of you." In addition, after the competition, there will be heavy thanks to the hard work. ”
Glancing at him playfully, Xinyue stopped talking and looked at Bruce Lee again with a little smile.
Miyazawa Yu's speed was very fast, and when he spoke, he had already made a move on Bruce Lee. A kick went straight to Bruce Lee's face, as if he wanted to crush his arrogance. Ordinary people don't say it's hiding, I'm afraid it's hard to see even its movements.
But he obviously didn't know Bruce Lee very well, and he was not afraid to suppress him at such a simple speed. The same swift sliding step sideways, while dodging, Bruce Lee's back foot pointed forward, causing Miyazawa Yu's center of gravity and leg to be hit. Immediately, even if the latter is vigorous, it is inevitable that he will lose his balance.
Although it is a stumbling one, Miyazawa Yu is extraordinary after all. Luck waist, homeopathic twisting, a tumble on the ground. Unloaded his remaining strength and got up lightly, he was not injured. It's just that the clothes are stained with dust and a little embarrassed.
At this moment, Miyazawa Yu's eyes almost erupted with fire. Although it didn't affect the battle, he felt ashamed and indignant at the thought of being so embarrassed in front of Xin Yue, and the opponent was still the person he had previously scorned and humiliated.
With a roar, Miyazawa Yu said frantically: "You must die today." ”
However, he was furious, but in exchange for Bruce Lee's fluttering voice: "You have said this kind of thing three times." ”
"It's so lively here."
Just when Miyazawa Yu was enraged and planned to deal with Bruce Lee by any means. On the high top wall of the long alley, a figure suddenly appeared and said something tepidly. Against the light, it can be seen that he is very tall.
Seeing this person, Miyazawa Yu seemed to have regained a little calm, and hummed: "If it's to see the excitement, then watch quietly." If not, I don't mind fighting you again when I get rid of this kid. ”
The visitor looked at him with a smile and said meaningfully, "I'm afraid you won't be able to solve it." ”
Hearing this, Miyazawa Yu shouted angrily: "Qianling, I advise you not to meddle in your affairs. ”
It turned out that when Qianling and Bruce Lee separated, they found that someone was eyeing the latter. Seeing that he was immersed in his own world, he followed. Unexpectedly, I encountered this scene.
Looking at the furious Miyazawa Yu, Qianling chuckled and said, "It is strictly forbidden to fight outside the City Lord's Mansion, and the guards have the right to kill those who violate it." If I'm not mistaken, it's still under ban, and I've had the guards called. As for your grievances, I don't want to get involved, so you can continue. But don't blame me for not reminding you, you seem to have been warned by the guards the other day. ”
Listen closely, a neat line of footsteps is approaching this way. Thinking of being blocked from dealing with Shi Lie that day, Miyazawa Yu was so angry that he almost bit his lip.
Seeing this, Xin Yue glanced at Xiao Mu and smiled softly: "If you want to be a hunter, you must be prepared for a shotgun to go off." If you waste my time by using us as gunmen for this kind of thing, don't blame me for being unkind to you. And also... If you can't get what you promised, your Xiaojia Village..."
How about Xiaojia Village, Xinyue didn't finish speaking. But Xiao Mu knew it. was about to accept, but Xinyue disappeared around the corner.
With his fists clenched, he stared at Bruce Lee fiercely. This time, not only did he fail to deal with this kid, but he angered Xinyue, and it can be said that stealing chickens did not lead to losing a handful of rice. At this moment, his resentment towards Bruce Lee even surpassed that of Zhao Yifeng and Zhao Jiacun.
Finally, glancing at Miyazawa Yu, Xiao Mu couldn't help but scold angrily in his heart.
At this time, the most aggrieved is Miyazawa Yu. Bruce Lee couldn't teach a lesson, and he was so embarrassed in front of Xiao Mu, Xinyue and others. This is undoubtedly a shame for him, who has always been arrogant.
Seeing Xinyue leaving, Miyazawa Yu was so angry that he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood. At this time, Qianling jumped to Bruce Lee's side, and the two of them looked at him quietly.
Unable to stay faceless any longer, Miyazawa Yu said a cruel word and chased after Xinyue. When he walked past Xiao Mu, he was even more angry, and slapped him directly in the face, and then walked away.
Covering his face, Xiao Mu had no choice but to count all these hatreds on Li Xiaolong's head. He gave the latter a hard look and quickly left.
This matter ended like this. When Qianling asked Bruce Lee about the situation, the latter pointed to his kick over Miyazawa's foot, indicating that there was no problem at all. As for the city lord's mansion guard, he just happened to be passing by, and he didn't know the situation here at all.
Looking at Bruce Lee with a calm face, Qianling said: "Miyazawa Yu has always been narrow-minded, but his strength is not weak. I am afraid that today's things will not be good. You're not afraid, but you have to remind your two teammates, just in case. ”
Hearing this, Bruce Lee nodded, he really had to be vigilant. In the future, it is best for the three of them to stay together, and they must not let Miyazawa Yu and others have a chance.
After not staying long, Bruce Lee thanked Qianling again and quickly rushed back to the restaurant. Seeing that Zhao Yifeng and the others were sitting in the room and cultivating, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Abandon distractions. While thinking about the secrets of physical arts, Bruce Lee felt his soaring physical state after the battle with Qianling. He had a hunch that this seemed to be a sign of improved physical skills. Like the level of battle spirit, he inadvertently went through a process of quantitative change to qualitative change.
