Qu Yong muttered, "A rabbit... No... Can a beaver also do martial arts? ”

"Of course the beaver doesn't know martial arts, it's just its nature, it's a life-saving stunt."

"What does the Taoist mean, as long as I don't have strength in my hands, then it can't borrow strength?"

Lao Dao said: "The young man's understanding is good, but have you ever thought about how to catch it if you have no strength in your hands? ”

"This ......" Qu Yong couldn't answer.

"Young man, how about Poor Dao discuss something with you?"

Qu Yong said: "Dao Chief, please speak." ”

Lao Dao rubbed his hands, and said a little embarrassed: "This beaver has a great effect on the poor road, you let the poor road, and the poor road is grateful......"

"This ......" Qu Yong intuitively felt that this old Taoist priest was a master, what he wanted to say was "What is there to thank for this little thing", but the old Taoist thought that he was reluctant to give up this beaver, and said: "You give it to the poor Dao, and the Chinese herbs in the valley of the poor Dao will be picked by you?" ”

Qu Yong also looked at the surrounding scenery just now, and he found that there were herbs all over the place, and many of them were something he had never seen before.

"How?"

"Dao Chief." Qu Yong said: "I haven't caught this beaver yet, if the Taoist is useful, you don't need to exchange things with me." ”

"Good!" The old man was overjoyed, and said with a thumbs up: "The young man has a good heart." ”

The beaver did not move, and by this time, it seemed to feel that the time had come, and it was about to flee, but it was already too late, and the old man's wide sleeves drew a circle in the air, and the beaver was like a drunken man, and he was finally caught in his hand.

Lao Dao laughed and said: "I didn't expect Lao Dao that my longevity is approaching, and I can still encounter such strange things as wind beasts, it seems that God still doesn't want to accept me!" He laughed a lot, and then said to Qu Yong: "Young man, poor Dao keeps his promise, you can pick the flowers and plants in this valley at will." ”

Qu Yong was already dumbfounded, he didn't expect that he couldn't catch the beaver, this old Taoist priest came with his hands open, he couldn't help but admire it, he pondered for a long time and said: "Dao Chief, I... I think...... Is it because the circle is smooth in all directions, so the beaver can't borrow the force either, and you will be caught by your hands? ”

"Oh?" Seeing that Qu Yong could actually think of this layer, the old Taoist priest said, "Good, very good, with excellent understanding." Young man, although we met for the first time, Poor Dao could see that you were a good boy with integrity, and Poor Dao asked you a word, and you answered me clearly? ”

Qu Yong said: "Dao Chief, please speak." ”

Lao Dao said: "How did you meet this beaver? You must know that this kind of spirit beast is not seen by ordinary people. ”

Qu Yong originally said: "When I lowered my head to drink the spring water, I heard it cooing, looked up and saw it squatting at the mouth of the cave, and at first I thought it was a rabbit. ”

"Cooing." The old Taoist priest said to himself, "Why does this beaver deliberately coo at you? Is it for you? But why did you lead you all the way to my valley? The old Taoist priest suddenly shook his body, he thought of something, and lost his voice: "The poor Dao is already approaching his lifespan, but God sent me a beaver who only continues his life, and also brought a young man with a very high understanding. ”

"Dao Chief?" Qu Yong saw that Lao Dao's eyes were dull, muttering something in his mouth, saying something he didn't understand, suddenly Lao Dao grabbed Qu Yong's hands, and looked forward to it: "Child, how old are you this year?" ”

Qu Yong felt that Lao Dao's hand was like a red-hot iron hoop, and it hurt and burned when he grabbed him, so he endured it and said, "I'm twenty years old." ”

"Twenty." Lao Dao let go of his hand again and said, "How can you send someone who is already twenty years old?" It's past the time to lay the foundations. ”

"Come, kid." Lao Dao took two steps away, stood and said, "You come and push me." ”

Qu Yong was inexplicable and said, "Push you?" ”

"Yes." Lao Dao said solemnly: "I can't force under my feet, and I don't block it with my hands, even if you come to push me, as long as I can push me step back, even if you win." ”

Qu Yong shook his head and said: "This is not good, I am a young man, how can I take advantage of it like this, besides, I don't want to win you." ”

Lao Dao said: "What a big breath, you can push me first." ”

"Good!" Qu Yong made a gentle push, and the old man's body rotated skillfully, and Qu Yong's whole person slid to the side, unable to move him at all.

Lao Dao smiled: "Haha, the young man can't do it with a lot of strength." ”

"That's because I didn't stand properly and my feet slipped." Qu Yong was careful this time, he slowly approached Lao Dao, and after standing up, he pushed his hands violently, last time he was worried that Lao Dao was old and couldn't stand the strength, but this time it was a real effort, Lao Dao still used a rotating circle to stroke, and Qu Yong involuntarily slipped to the side.

"How so?" Qu Yong is not a fool, on the contrary, he is still very smart, twice in a row, he already felt that something was wrong, he shot for the third time, his hands were very slow and slow to stick to Lao Dao's chest, and only after feeling that he touched it, he exerted his force violently.

Even so, the result was still the same, Qu Yong slipped for the third time, and he looked in admiration.

Lao Dao smiled and said, "Young man, do you still want to try?" ”

Qu Yong wiped the sweat on his face, nodded, several consecutive failures forced out the strength in his bones, at this time, if he let go and admit defeat, it would not be his temper.

Lao Dao seemed to appreciate his temper, "Good. ”

Qu Yong thought silently for a while, this time he still slowly put his hand on Lao Dao's chest, and suddenly pushed his arms quickly, he knew that Lao Dao was definitely going to turn round at this time, so he took it as soon as he stuck it, and waited for Lao Dao to fall by himself.

Lao Dao smiled, and the Buddha had already seen through his thoughts, and his body did not move at all, and he didn't even turn around.

In the next hour, Qu Yong tried all kinds of methods, but he couldn't help the old way.

He panted and stared at Lao Dao, there was really no way.

"Huh." Lao Dao still looks calm and relaxed.

"How so?" Qu Yong's face was embarrassed, the old man didn't move, he just stood there quietly, as light and steady as the air in the mountains. For a moment, he even felt as if Lao Dao's body was a disembodied translucent thing.

"Did you throw in the towel?"

"I'm not going to throw in the towel!" Qu Yong suddenly thought of a way, and he said loudly: "I have a way." ”

"Oh?" Lao Dao smiled: "What way? ”

Qu Yong smiled, opened his arms, hugged Lao Dao's thighs, and then carried the whole person of Lao Dao to his shoulders, he took two steps before putting Lao Dao down, and said with a smile: "Look ............"

Lao Dao was dumbfounded, he knew that if he took a horse step and took root under his feet, even if this young man came to carry him, he would not be able to carry him, but the two of them said that he couldn't use his hands and feet, and besides, he didn't expect Qu Yong to carry his whole person up.

Qu Yong saw that this old Taoist priest was carried around by himself, and after putting it down, his face was cloudy, and he was also beating a drum in his heart, thinking: "Will this Taoist chief be angry?" I'm playing tricks after all. ”

"Good!" The old Taoist priest suddenly laughed, and his laughter was hearty, "Young people are brave and strategic, know how to improvise, have a very high understanding, and have a good heart. He laughed for a moment and said, "Son, what's your name?" ”

Qu Yong said: "My surname is Qu, the song of right and wrong, a single name is a brave word, brave Yong!" ”

"Qu Yong?" Lao Dao thought about it carefully, stroked his palm and said: "Good name, the big husband is brave with a mouthful of blood, it is nothing, if you can bend and stretch, that is great wisdom, child, there is a treasure on the poor Dao, I want to give it to you............"

Qu Yong hurriedly said: "Dao Chief, we meet in Pingshui, how can we ask for your treasures?" ”

"Don't rush to excuse yourself." Lao Dao said: "These two treasures of Poor Dao, even if I want to give them, you may not be able to catch them, you listen to Poor Dao first." ”

Qu Yong said: "Dao Chief, please speak." ”

"Come on, come on............" Lao Dao took Qu Yong's hand and sat down by the spring pool together, he took off his shoes and socks, put his feet into the water to wash, and said slowly: "Child, there are two things that Poor Dao has learned all his life, the first one is the ability to steal the sky and change the earth, and reverse the power of yin and yang, so that very people can pass it on, and it is also the ............ that Poor Dao wants to pass on to you the most."

"The ability to steal the sky and change the earth, and reverse the power of yin and yang?" Qu Yong listened to it with pleasure in his eyes, and secretly said to himself.

Lao Dao nodded and said, "But if you want to succeed in this way, you have to have thirty years of hard work and no achievements, and the child ............."

"Thirty years?" Qu Yong has understood since he was a child that there is no shortcut to opportunism in this world, "Dao Chief, what is such a treasure?" ”

Lao Dao looked at Qu Yong eagerly and said: "It's medical skills, child, you have a high talent, as long as you work hard, you will become a generation of great doctors, are you willing?" ”

"I..." Qu Yong wanted to agree at the first time, but he was immediately embarrassed: "Dao Chief, I'm afraid I don't have so much time to learn from you...... I'm twenty years old this year, and I'm going to start raising my family, my family's... The conditions are not very good..."

Lao Dao was not too surprised, he said: "Poor Dao knows that you came too late, even if it is ten years early, it is still too late...... Now, even if you agree, I'm afraid I won't have the time... Hey, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the second one......" He sighed, and said, "This one, compared to the medical skills, is much worse, and the time can be relatively shorter." ”

Qu Yong's heart moved, and he guessed: "It's martial arts?" ”

"Martial arts?" Lao Dao said: "That's right, but it should be more accurately called kung fu, this treasure, at your age, after my Yi Gu, I Ching, and refining the marrow, you can practice it in three years, go through the world in three years, and then realize yourself in three years, and you can also have some achievements." ”

"Kung Fu?" Qu Yong couldn't push the old Dao just now, and he had already guessed that he had martial arts, "Dao Chief, what kind of kung fu did you have just now?" ”

Lao Dao saw that his eyes were shining, and explained: "That's the ability to draw a circle, in the current popular language, the force you just used to push me looks very big, but it's just a straight line, it's the 'line boxing'." Drawing a circle with a point as the center is the highest level of Chinese boxing. Lines, on the other hand, are just components of a circle. ”

These words are simple to hear, but if you think about it carefully, it is extremely difficult to understand, Qu Yong suddenly realized: "The whole body of the Taoist, with the point as the center, spins out a circle ......with all angles" He paused, and said while thinking: "It seems to be more like a round ball, you stand in it, any external invasion, will involuntarily slide over, because on the circle, there is no focus point... Chief, am I right? ”

Qu Yong said his thoughts, but when he saw the old man's face, he muttered: "Strange, I can understand everything in one word, and I have been good for decades... Child, your understanding is higher than Poor Dao imagined, as long as it doesn't take three years, Poor Dao has nothing to teach you. ”
