In the small courtyard of the Liu family, Liu Laohan quietly probed his grandson's body, and found that he was full of energy, his body was in a state of vitality, and he did not have the slightest sense of loneliness and dilapidation before, so he couldn't help asking: "Dongsheng, can you tell grandpa the reason for your decision?" ”

When Dong Sheng heard this, he was silent for a while, and his mind skipped all kinds of experiences that had happened, Xiaoshitan, urban dreams, the past of the Zhou family and the last trip to the sea of knowledge, the look in his eyes became more and more firm, and he slowly said: "I just don't want to stay out of the matter, I think maybe I can do something, and I can find a little peace of mind when I recall it in the future." ”

"Grandpa, when I say this, can I be considered ready?" A trace of apprehension appeared on Dongsheng's face.

Seeing this, Liu Laohan smiled and said: "Hehe, what's this, grandpa just asked more, since you are ready, then I will officially teach you the method of martial arts." ”

"Yay!" Dongsheng cheered, his face swept away the previous apprehension, and he was only excited, looking at Liu Laohan expectantly.

Liu Laohan lowered his eyebrows, the dry tobacco pole in his hand swayed gently, and his voice seemed to come from outside the sky, "Wu Yitu, pay attention to practicing qi and essence, essence, and the qi and blood of the human body, and through the body, he will open mountains and split stones, and run like the wind, and this method of practicing qi and essence is ......." ”

"Thinking about it, looking inward, keeping the way, consolidating the foundation, holding the yuan, guiding the fetal breath, and acting in the sky."

With Liu Laohan's ethereal voice, Dongsheng gradually chanted with him, he couldn't help but sit cross-legged on the chaise longue, his hands were naturally on his knees, and his face also made a low-eyebrow and selfless look, his consciousness began to wander, he felt like he had returned to the sea of knowledge, turned into a small fish, only this time, the world turned into a sea, in this vast sea, he swam with difficulty, only in this way can he absorb the meager oxygen in this sea of heaven and earth, and whenever that meager oxygen enters the body, He would feel a burst of refreshment from head to toe, as if he had taken a cool shower in the summer.

As time passed, he gradually got used to the feeling of cold water pouring on the top, and gradually got used to swimming in the sea of heaven and earth, but unfortunately no matter how hard he wandered, the oxygen he could absorb was always only so meager, until suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness, and when he woke up again, he found that his consciousness had returned to the pavilion, and slowly opened his eyes, although there were bursts of dizziness in his head, but his body was full of vitality.

He subconsciously shook his palm, seemingly a little surprised, but the labor pain in his head interrupted his train of thought, so he couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his temples, glanced at his grandfather beside him, and found that Old Man Liu was looking at him with a wicked smile, and couldn't help but say: "Grandpa, what's the situation, is practicing martial arts so brain-consuming?" ”

"Ahem, practicing martial arts doesn't take a lot of brains, it's just that refining qi and refining essence is quite laborious, if you don't know how to control it, you will be awakened by headaches and dizziness every time." Old man Liu coughed and said lightly.

"Huh?!" Dong Sheng didn't know that this martial arts cultivation would have a headache and dizziness, so he immediately said, "Is there no way to avoid it?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Laohan nodded and affirmed: "Of course there is." ”

"What method? Don't hide it, old man, hurry up. Dongsheng urged.

Old man Liu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's good to get used to the pain." ”

"Huh? What kind of method is this?! "I thought that every time I practiced this in the future, I would have a headache, and my face was bitter in an instant.

Seeing his grandson's bitter face, Liu Laohan couldn't bear it a little, and comforted: "It's okay, these factors can also exercise your divine thoughts, martial arts divine thoughts are already weak, if you don't think of a way elsewhere, you will only suffer from boredom." ”

Although Dongsheng doesn't know what martial arts gods are suffering, but since grandpa said it, then there should be a certain amount of truth, after all, how can anyone give up because of a headache on the first day of learning martial arts.

Then he changed his words again and asked, "Grandpa, when will I be able to achieve great success?" ”

Knocking on the dry tobacco stick in his hand, Liu Laohan glanced at him, pouted and said, "Look less at the picture book, wait for your little Zhou Tian to run freely and generate qi and blood." ”

"What is qi and blood?" Dongsheng heard an unfamiliar word again, and couldn't help but ask.

"You'll know when the time comes! Practice well. After speaking, Liu Laohan smoked a dry cigarette by himself, squinted his eyes slightly, and seemed to be falling asleep.

"Stingy ......" muttered, Dongsheng didn't know much about this stingy old man, and he had a headache at the moment, so he had to close his eyes, close his eyes on the recliner and recuperate, and fell asleep in a daze.

In the small courtyard, it suddenly became quiet, Liu Laohan seemed to be pretending to sleep, and he didn't pay attention to his grandson beside him, as Dongsheng fell into a deep sleep, a faint silver light invisible to ordinary people appeared around him, slowly and continuously infiltrating into his body.

This is the benefit of experiencing the sympathetic enlightenment of heaven and man, being in a state of cultivation all the time, although the cultivation efficiency will be extremely low compared to the concentration of cultivation, but it is better all the time, and it does not consume divine thoughts.

When Dongsheng woke up, it was already noon, this sleep made him refreshed, and there was no groggy feeling in his head, at this moment, he only felt energetic as if he could kill the buffalo at the head of the village with one punch.

Turning over and getting up, Dong Sheng looked around, looking for his grandfather's figure, but he didn't find Liu Laohan's shadow, thinking that he should have gone out to work again, his eyes fell on the table in the house, and sure enough, he used several big white bowls, buckle each other, thinking that Liu Laohan left him food.

"Grunt~", the sound suddenly sounded in his stomach, prompting Dongsheng to eat more quickly, without thinking too much, Dongsheng walked quickly to the table, sat down casually, opened the buckled bowl, and the fragrance of food came to the surface, making him even more hungry, and then he ate a big mouthful.

After eating, Dongsheng took the dishes and chopsticks to the back kitchen, put them in the water and soaked them, and walked leisurely to the courtyard, eating and drinking enough to think of the martial arts novels he had read before, and picked up a thin stick in the pyre, and waved it in the hulala, I don't know if it was Wang Ba's swordsmanship or the dog-beating stick method, the courtyard suddenly had a heavy shadow of sticks, Dongsheng felt so relaxed and comfortable for the first time, he used to swing a dozen times and was a little out of breath, but now he was about to dance for more than ten minutes, but it just made him feel more and more excited, There is even an urge to dance for a day and a night, and the thin stick in his hand brings out bursts of afterimages, making him look like a hero in a martial arts novel, fighting against the demons, "Dog thief!" Look at the sword! With a clear drink, the tip of the thin stick stabbed fiercely at the pine tree called the "dog thief" with a fierce meaning, "Bang! The muffled sound echoed in the small courtyard, and then it was abruptly quiet.

Dongsheng gently let go of his hand, a little dumbfounded, the thin stick was horizontal in the air, and the front end pierced into the pine tree for a few moments, as if the pine tree grew on its own, but only Dongsheng knew that he poked it in, and Dongsheng used to poke the pine tree like this with a stick, so that some of the trunks of this pine tree had grown nodules due to injury.

Coming back to his senses, Dongsheng's eyes showed a touch of excitement, "I'm obedient~" sighed with emotion, and the knobby hand held the thin stick and pulled it out hard, and the thin stick was pulled out of the trunk with a little sawdust, and a round rumbling eye appeared on the trunk.

Stretched out another empty hand, touched the hole eye, felt the trunk that was broken by brute force, Dongsheng was a little speechless for a while, he seemed to have some understanding in his heart, and he couldn't say anything and couldn't say it, but that excitement and joy can't be faked, at least he can practice martial arts like Pang Heiwa from today, for that bizarre world, his heart is full of curiosity, but also a little afraid, he always feels that he will encounter those things one day, so he is not only interested in martial arts, It's for some other things in his mind.

Dongsheng looked at the tree hole and was stunned, and only came back to his senses after a while, his mind also calmed down, and he inserted the thin stick back into the pyre, he was just so hot that after exercising, his whole body was a little hot.

Casually touched the sweat on his face, today's weather is very good, the sunny day after the rain seems to be predicting the next hot summer, bring the door of the small courtyard, touch the dog at the door, Dongsheng walked briskly to the village, ready to go to grandpa to help do farm work, after all, grandpa has been with him this morning, no one to help most of the time to go home at night.

Walking around a few pieces of land that he was familiar with, Dongsheng finally found Liu Laohan, watching his grandfather wielding a hoe, turning over the soil in an orderly manner, I didn't think it before, it seems that there is always an indescribable smell, Liu Laohan in the summer wears a straw hat, and there is not even a drop of sweat on his body, as if he is not working, but more like relaxing and cultivating sentiment.

"Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely see Nanshan!" With a small poem in his mouth, his hand behind his back, Dongsheng walked slowly to Liu Laohan, "Old man, do you know the great poet Tao Yuanming?" You're going to be kind of like that. ”

Liu Laohan shook up the hoe, cut the knife edge deep into the hard mud, like cutting a piece of tofu, and easily turned out a piece of mud that had been dry and hard, and then he took the hoe handle, glanced at the kid standing in front of him, squinted and smiled: "Mr. Wuliu's name, I know a little bit below, I don't know this little friend, what do you think?" ”

Dongsheng clenched his fists and covered his mouth, cleared his throat, and said with a blank look: "Ahem, I don't dare to teach you, but I just see that your old soil is not real, and I want to help you clear this stubborn grassroots." With that, he squatted down and began to rummage through the roots of the grass deep in the soil.

"Then the old man has thanked this little hero!" Liu Laohan said in a similar way.

"It's a trivial matter, why worry about it!" Dong Sheng waved his hand and motioned for the old man to continue his work, without being so polite and polite.

"Hehe......", Liu Laohan grinned, his hands were skillful, and the hoe was held in both hands, and with the ups and downs of his shoulders, he started a regular arc movement.

Then the two of them turned over the soil seriously, until the soil of this field was carefully turned over, Dongsheng stopped pulling the grass roots with his hands, shook his arms, Dongsheng really didn't expect that this weeding and turning the soil could actually make his tossing arm sour, it seems that farming is really hard work, and he can't stand martial arts.

And at this moment, it is also the time when the sun sets, and the red glow is flying all over the sky. Looking at the red glow in the distance, Dongsheng was a little stunned, a faint smell of dry smoke, sneaked into his nose from his ear, sniffed his nose, Dongsheng knew that it was his grandfather who came, sure enough, there was some movement next to him, Dongsheng looked at it, Liu Laohan held a dry tobacco stick in his hand, casually leaned the hoe on the field, and was leisurely smoking dry tobacco.

"Grandpa, what you taught me today is the method of cultivating martial arts?" Dongsheng looked at the sunset on the horizon and asked.

Hearing this, Liu Laohan turned his gaze, fell on his grandson, and said slowly: "Refining qi and refining essence is the method of martial arts, and you must practice diligently in the future." ”

"I understand, but that's all grandpa has? There's no body technique, sword technique, sword technique or anything like that? Dongsheng turned his head, looked at his grandfather, and said thoughtfully.

Looking at his grandson's expectant look, Liu Laohan's heart moved slightly, sighed, and said with emotion: "Alas, ......, silly boy, what era is this, how can anyone practice body and swordsmanship." ”

Hearing this, Dong Sheng looked puzzled and said, "Then what are you practicing?" ”

"Marksmanship, of course! You stupid boy. Liu Laohan said helplessly.

Hearing this, Dong Sheng's head suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he thought of the shining silver spear he saw in his dream, and immediately said excitedly: "Okay! I'm going to learn marksmanship, I'm going to have to stick a big gun or something, old handsome! ”

Dongsheng stood up and said excitedly to Liu Laohan: "Grandpa, you teach me marksmanship!" I also want to be like a martial arts hero, galloping the rivers and lakes with a big gun in my hand... Occur! ”

Seeing this, Liu Laohan was slightly stunned, and then a smile appeared on his face, he didn't expect his grandson to like marksmanship so much, Liu Laohan was also a little relieved in his heart, and said happily: "Okay, good!" Grandpa will teach you tomorrow! ”

On the second day of triumph, Dongsheng looked at the shotgun he was holding in his hand and was a little dumbfounded, staring at the proud old man in front of him, and said in a trembling voice: "Old man Liu, is this gun a real guy?" ”

"That's for sure! Don't forget, your grandfather used to be a volunteer! Engage in a gun, that's not a hand-held pinch? Liu Laohan smoked a dry cigarette and said proudly.

Holding the bolt-action rifle in his arms, Dong Sheng walked up to Liu Laohan and whispered: "You be quiet, this thing is illegal!" I'm talking about the gun! It's not this gun! Hurry up and return this thing to someone. ”

"That gun? Didn't you say you wanted to learn yesterday? When Liu Laohan heard this, he wondered, obviously this kid was very interested yesterday, why did he push back like this today.

"Can that be the same?! I'm talking about big guns! It's that kind of big gun! Dongsheng opened his mouth and argued.

Liu Laohan was not happy, and retorted: "This is a big gun in your hand!" ”

"Old man Liu, don't pretend to be confused for me! Who is the gangster with a bolt-action rifle? Do you see a young man with a bolt-action rifle? ”

Hearing this, Liu Laohan pursed his mouth and said sullenly: "Isn't this that the times have changed." After speaking, he waved his hand helplessly to show his innocence.

"I ......", Dongsheng was completely speechless, silent for a moment, and then said depressedly: "Is there that kind of marksmanship in martial arts novels?" It's a spear! He deliberately emphasized the word "spear".

Originally, I wanted to say that the bolt-action rifle was also quite long, but seeing his grandson's blushing face, Liu Laohan still took this sentence back, walked in front of his grandson, and patted it comfortingly: "Child, the times have changed, we must also keep up with the pace of the times, listen to grandpa, learn this is right!" After speaking, he patted Dongsheng's shoulder.

Dongsheng looked at the serious look on his grandfather's face, thinking that his grandfather would not lie to him, so he had to say dejectedly: "Okay, I'll learn ......." ”

"Good grandson! Grandpa's ability to fight birds can be regarded as a successor! ”

Liu Laohan excitedly held Dongsheng's shoulders and shook it vigorously.

Dongsheng could feel that his grandfather was very happy, and it seemed that he had really misunderstood, and the marksmanship that his grandfather said yesterday should be the thing in his hand.

Thinking that his shining silver gun had become a bolt-action rifle, Dongsheng only felt in a trance, and he didn't know if his dream of being a hero would have a chance to come true.
