Chapter 220: Light and Heavy
When the queen was practicing Yu Bu, Wuji was also figuring out the sword dance. However, he has a deeper understanding than the queen and has gained more.
The queen only practiced Yu Bu, but Wuji practiced the entire sword dance from scratch.
He has an intentional eye, can look back at the inner light, knows all about the muscles, bones, flesh and blood, and the operation of internal qi, can mirror the external limbs and the internal qi and blood operation to each other, and has a precise understanding of every subtle movement of the sword dance, so as to achieve the ultimate, and the effect of practice is far from comparable to ordinary people.
After only practicing three times, he mastered all the movements, and felt the solemnity and strictness of Yizhang Hong when practicing the sword dance.
At that time, when watching Yizhanghong's drill, Wuji just felt that her expression was solemn, like a sacrifice. Now that he is practicing in person, he feels the true qi in his body, and his understanding is deeper.
It's not just a matter of attitude, it's also about the flow of qi and blood, and it's about thoughts.
That is, sword intent.
Strictness is only an external attitude, while solemnity is an internal thought. With the unfolding of each movement, the qi and blood run in the blood vessels and meridians, naturally exuding that kind of artistic conception, rather than an intentional posture, this is the idea, the sword intent.
When Mowgli practiced for the ninth time, his qi and blood changed from condensation to liveliness, and Mowgli felt a kind of thought that was not quite the same as congeniality. This kind of idea, he seems to have seen in Xie Guanglong's knife technique. Just like water made of ice, it still has the coldness of ice, but it has more agility.
This feeling is a bit like the spring flower dance performed by the flower and the moon, when winter goes to spring, the willow tree sprouts with a soft sound, and the willow breeze blows coldly.
Mowgli practiced alone in the courtyard, over and over again.
He had no sword in his hand, but he had a sword in his heart.
Lin Fei and the others saw that he was so engrossed in his training, and no one dared to disturb him, but they just guarded him loyally and did not let anyone come to disturb him.
Only Xiao Ziyue was alone. Holding a large porcelain bowl full of Guiyuan Dan, holding the small evil spirit, sitting on the steps on the side, knocking a Guiyuan Dan by himself, feeding the little evil spirit a Guiyuan Dan, staring at the two big eyes, staring at Wuji's every move.
After knocking Guiyuan Dan, she was also a little tired, put the big porcelain bowl aside, and hugged the little evil spirit. Just fell asleep in the hallway.
She slept peacefully, smiling innocently in her sleep, and she didn't know what good things she dreamed about.
Wuji practiced until late at night, suddenly stopped, and stood quietly in the courtyard, frowning slightly.
"Master, what's wrong?" Lin Fei stepped forward and asked with concern.
Wuji raised his head and looked at Lin Fei. He pondered for a moment: "I seem to have realized something, but it is not very clear, and I have a feeling of seeing flowers in the fog." ”
Lin Fei was speechless. Growing in the Purple Moon Forest, he often looks at the flowers in the fog. But in martial arts, what it is like to see flowers in the fog, he can't say, and he can't help Wuji.
"I'm going to the Heavenly Academy. Mowgli said. Ignoring Lin Fei, he turned around and went out.
Lin Fei didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly beckoned Shi and the others to follow. Wuji's time to Xianyang is not long. There are a lot of people who have offended, and yesterday he just offended Liu Bai, who is good at assassination, Lin Fei didn't dare to let him go out alone.
......
After entering the Heavenly Academy, they went straight to the foot of the Heavenly Book Tower, and Lin Fei and the others stopped. The attendants could follow the master into the Heavenly Academy, but they could not enter the Heavenly Book Tower, they could only wait outside the tower.
Mowgli entered the tower alone, thinking about his thoughts as he walked towards the stairs in the center of the hall. Ying Ziqing, who was sitting under the pillar, saw that Wuji's eyes were straight, and his face was a little strange, so he hurriedly greeted him.
"Senior brother, you are ......"
Wuji didn't hear it, and walked straight past Ying Ziqing. Ying Ziqing was a little embarrassed, raised his hand and stopped in the air. Linghu Minzhi walked over from the side and laughed softly: "Senior brother, the second senior brother may have realized something again, and he is a little stunned." ”
Ying Ziqing also laughed, and waved his hand in the air. "That's right, you two senior brothers were born to be scholars. If you don't go crazy, you can't live. Whether or not you can revitalize the Heavenly Academy depends on how fast your second senior brother progresses. ”
"The second senior brother can do his studies without distractions, and he can't do without the strong support of the senior brother. If the Heavenly Academy can rise again, Senior Brother will also be a meritorious man. Senior Brother, in the future, the billions of subjects of the Great Qin Empire will be grateful for the kindness of Senior Brother. ”
Ying Ziqing laughed and said a few words modestly.
......
Wuji didn't know anything about Ling Hu Minzhi and Ying Ziqing's words, so he went straight upstairs and found the six swords that the queen had given him.
He picked up Juque first, held his sword in both hands, and stood up. After a moment, he opened his eyes, held his sword in both hands, and began to practice the sword dance.
The pace is heavy, like a thousand pounds. His eyes are solemn, as if he were seeing the gods.
Wuji took a step, whether it was forward or backward, it was only half a step. There is no big opening and closing, no tossing and turning, and even the body does not have a big rotation, only a few simple tricks of stabbing, dialing, blocking, and blocking, and the range of action is very small.
However, as he took steps step by step, power was born from his steps, along his legs, and injected a sea of qi. Every step is a drumming, which will make the vitality in the sea of qi thicker. The rich vitality evaporates up, upwards along the meridians, and is injected into the arms.
The heavy giant que is no longer heavy, and Mowgli can swing freely. In the solemnity, a light spirit was gradually born.
The corners of Wuji's mouth were slightly raised, and he changed from holding the sword with both hands to holding the sword with one hand, and continued to practice.
The footsteps were like thunder, and one after another: "Knock! knock!"
......
In the hall on the first floor, the disciples of the Heavenly Academy who were reading books invariably put down the books in their hands, raised their heads one by one, and looked at the spiral staircase in the center.
They all heard footsteps coming from upstairs. The sound of heavy, slow footsteps beat on their hearts like a war drum, making them tremble. Some people saw Wuji going upstairs, but they didn't know what he was doing on it, and they were puzzled, and they came to ask Yingziqing.
"Your second senior brother is practicing swords on it. Ying Ziqing said strangely: "In order to face the Heavenly Sword Academy, he often practiced swords, and one practice was one night. You don't have to make a fuss, read what you should read, and go back to sleep when you're tired. ”
"Sword practice?" someone didn't quite believe it. With such heavy footsteps, how can you practice a sword, and it's almost the same as practicing a hammer. Could it be that the second senior brother is the same as Yizhang Hong, and he is also a giant spirit?
"The Heavenly Academy is different from the other six academies in that it trains temple priests. The priests of the temple are not only familiar with various rituals, but also fight when necessary, and do not rule out encounters with the enemy. ”
Linghu Minzhi walked over and said unhurriedly: "We can not kill people, but we must be able to kill people." The second senior brother practiced swords in order to defeat the Heavenly Sword Academy and prove the strength of the Heavenly Academy. You don't have such a difficult task, but it is also necessary to learn martial arts to strengthen your body and temper your will. Who's interested?"
When everyone heard this, they laughed awkwardly. They looked at each other, and no one answered.
Ling Hu Minzhi smiled: "The sage has words, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world." You don't even want to suffer the hardships of self-cultivation, and you still want to join your family, govern the country, and level the world?"
Someone in the crowd immediately objected: "Minzhi, the saint you are talking about is a saint of Confucianism, I rule the country by law in Daqin, and I don't pay attention to Confucianism, you say this, it doesn't seem appropriate, right?"
Ling Hu Min's head was not raised. "That's right, that's what the Confucian sages said, but can you say that he was wrong? Confucius also said, you don't get tired of eating, you don't get tired of being fine, I think you all seem to be quite convinced, and you are doing better than the other. ”
"Haha......" Everyone couldn't help laughing, laughing, and the originally somewhat strict atmosphere was swept away. Almost all of them come from the door of the powerful, even if they can't squeeze into the top wealthy families, the eight words "don't get tired of eating, don't get tired of being fine" can be done.
"To tell you the truth, the second senior brother can make such progress, which is inseparable from his lack of views and inclusiveness. If you still hold on to the method of your ancestors and don't think about making progress, you will not be able to keep up with the pace of the second senior brother in the future. ”
Ling Hu Minzhi smiled slightly: "Oh, by the way, the government of the ancestors is immutable, and the law of the ancestors cannot be changed, but the truth of Confucianism, the Legalists say that three generations are kings with different rites, and the five tyrants are different from the law." Changing with the times has always been the purpose of Legalism. ”
The crowd was thoughtful. Ying Ziqing glanced at Ling Humin and nodded appreciatively.
......
Wuji put away the sword, covered in sweat and steaming, but his spirit was very uplifted.
The doubts when I practiced swords in the afternoon suddenly became clear at this moment.
After all, he has not yet reached the point where he has no sword in his hand and a sword in his heart, and without a sword in his hand, his feeling is inevitably distorted. With the sword in his hand, he immediately felt the subtle change in the severity and straightness, no longer a guess, but a real feeling.
He held Juque in one hand and fish intestines in the other, one light and one heavy, but it was natural.
The sea of qi is churning, and the vitality is like boiling water, bubbling in the meridians, watering the tired flesh and bones.
Wuji looked at the remaining four swords in the sword box, and his heart was happy. Sure enough, practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and whether the theory is right or not, we must practice, otherwise there will be deviations, even if it is only a little bit, it will slowly accumulate, and finally digress from the topic.
I have already experienced the light and heavy sword intent, when can I hold six swords at the same time and experience the power of the six swords?
Wuji thought about the queen's words, and suddenly felt a little funny. Three heads and six arms, isn't that a monster? However, then again, the Great Qin Empire lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of monsters. Although the three heads and six arms are weird, at least they are still human, much more normal than any eagle or beast.
Liuhe sword, holding six swords and slashing people at the same time, seems to be very stylish.
As soon as his mind moved, Wuji suddenly felt a little dizzy in front of him, and the two swords in front of him turned into Juque and fish intestines for a while, Ding Qin and Wu Hook for a while, and Zhan Lu and Bai Hong for a while.
It's not good, I'm overworked, I'm hallucinating.
Mowgli opened his eyes and shook his head, trying to become more sober.
With a "bang", his head hit something, and the pain came. Wuji was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized something, and slowly opened his eyes. When he saw the qiē in front of him, he couldn't help but scold.
"I'll it!"
