Section 37: Closed Practice

Gu Yi took the "Glass Talisman Cover" in his hand and looked at it, then handed it to Boss Zhao, and said to Boss Zhao: "You can take this book and practice, if there is such a great practice in the future, we will collect it and give rewards to the disciples who have contributed to our sect." ”

Boss Zhao took the book handed to him by Gu Yi, then nodded in agreement and said, "Childe, why don't you take a good rest first, and we will talk about this matter tomorrow." ”

Gu Yi looked at the firelight outside, heard the constant sound of houses collapsing outside, looked at Di Qing, Yang Lengyun and Liang Ming and said: "Then let's have a good rest first, we will go back to the academy tomorrow, you secretly investigate this person's identity and his interpersonal relationships, in short, find out who sent him." ”

Boss Zhao: "Yes, Childe." Gu Yi and the others went back to the room to rest and heal.

After a night of struggle, the academy finally cleared out all the bandits in the city. Gu Yi and the four of them walked out of the sect and saw that the originally prosperous street had turned into a ruin, Gu Yi looked at the destroyed houses, and then said, "Let's go, go back to the academy." ”

As soon as Gu Yi and the others arrived and walked into the gate of the academy, they saw Jiang Hao and others also coming back from outside, and they all said that the enemy was very red when they met, and Jiang Hao couldn't help but smile when they saw Gu Yi: "Okay, it's a big life, you didn't have an accident when it was so messy last night, it seems that there are still some means." ”

Gu Yi said: "It seems that you are quite concerned about us, is that the person who wanted to kill us last night was sent by you, right?" ”

Jiang Hao's face did not change, and he replied lightly: "If there is no evidence, don't talk nonsense, be careful that I accuse you of slander, let's go." After saying that, he led everyone away.

Di Qing asked Gu Yi and said, "Big brother, are you sure it's the person he sent?" ”

Gu Yi said: "It's not sure yet, but one thing is certain, he who knew our mission last night and knew our location, and he could arrange such a master to kill us, I think he meets these conditions." ”

Di Qing thought about it, Jiang Hao was a prince, and it was easy to send such a master. Gu Yi also said: "There is also a portrait in Lao Du's hand, it is simple to get the portrait of the four of us, but there are not many people who can satisfy the enmity of the four of us at the same time, this probability should be small and ruthless, and the academy has kept our identity secret, and the only person who can get our portrait must be the person from the academy, so it should be sent by him, it depends on whether Boss Zhao can find evidence." ”

As soon as the four of Gu Yi came to the dormitory, they saw Li Xinghe waiting for them at the door, and saw that the teacher was waiting for him Gu Yi hurriedly ran over, Li Xinghe saw Gu Yi and asked how the injury was, he already knew what happened last night, so he came to take a look, and saw that Gu Yi was fine, so he turned around and prepared to leave, and at this time a student ran to tell Li Xinghe to hurry up to the council hall.

After Li Xinghe came to the council hall, he saw Yu Hongwei, Ren Tianqi, Yuan Changhe, Liu Qingshan, Elder Ke, Elder Fa, Wu Lingjian, Wei Huangting, including the rest of the teachers were all waiting for him, and when Li Xinghe arrived, Yu Hongwei said: "Everyone has arrived, then I will start to say, the dean is not in the academy, and when the dean leaves, all the things in the academy will be handed over to me to deal with, and now we don't know where the dean is going, everyone should know about last night's events, This is a declaration of war against us. In the face of such a provocation, we cannot sit idly by and swallow our anger, and now I announce that from today onwards, the academy will start a full alert, send out all senior students, and strictly control the surroundings of the Three No City, and those who enter the Three No City will now start to investigate, and once they find suspicious people, they will be taken away for strict investigation. This matter is in charge of the three deans, Ren Tianqi, Yuan Changhe, and Liu Qingshan. Wu Lingjian, Wei Huangting, and Li Xinghe stayed, and your other teachers cooperated with the three deans. Immediately after the adjournment of the meeting, action began and the meeting was adjourned. ”

After everyone left, Yu Hongwei said to the remaining three: "The strongest few freshmen this year are all in charge of the three of you, in the next period of time, I hope that a few of you will step up their cultivation for them, and when the teachers who went out come back, the academy may face a big war, and when you don't care about him, you should let them have the ability to protect themselves, leaving a trace of fire for our academy." In the next few months, you can leave the affairs of the academy alone, take them to practice with peace of mind, and strive to make their strength at the next level. Go ahead, go arrange it. ”

The three of them also left separately when they heard Yu Hongwei's order, and then sent someone to inform their respective students, and when Gu Yi, Di Qing and Yang Lengyun received the notice, Liang Ming was still thinking about when he received the notice, but no one came.

When Gu Yi heard that he wanted to follow the teacher to hurry up and practice, and he couldn't leave, Gu Yi knew that he was going to separate from his brothers, because their respective teachers were different, and they were definitely not practicing in one place, so Gu Yi said: "It seems that our brothers are going to be temporarily separated in the next few months, and we can't see each other, so you can learn the formation in the academy well." Waiting for us to come back. ”

Early the next morning, Gu Yi, Di Qing, Yang Lengyun, and Liang Ming said goodbye to each other at the door, and then each went in a different direction, which was also the first time that the four of them did not see each other for a long time. When Gu Yi and Di Qing arrived at Li Xinghe's residence, Li Xinghe was waiting here early, and when he saw Gu Yi and them coming, he said directly: "In the next few months, you will eat and live with me, and I will train you more strictly, first of all, the goal of training is to consolidate the foundation." After speaking, he took them to the martial arts practice place in the backyard, Gu Yi and Di Qing were still like two ascetics, constantly practicing the use and control of aura.

When Yang Lengyun came to his master Wu Lingjian, he also saw that Wu Lingjian was already waiting for him, so he ran over and just wanted to speak, Wu Lingjian said: "A few arrows that night are still okay, and we will continue to maintain the previous training method for the next time, or start from the most basic, hitting leaves." ”

Yang Lengyun couldn't help frowning when he heard that he was beating the leaves again, but when he saw Wu Lingjian looking at him, he didn't dare to speak, and then he could only jump upstairs and start his own round of hitting the leaves.

Wei Huangting took Jiang Hao and Qi Ming out of the academy directly and didn't know where to go, of course, since it was arranged by the academy, no one asked, and even the person guarding the door didn't speak, because it usually requires special orders to take new students out.

Time has passed quite quickly, a month has passed, and Liang Ming is the only one in the dormitory, every day when he finishes studying, he comes back and looks at the empty room and can't help but miss his brothers, but when he thinks that his brothers are all working hard to practice, so Liang Ming simply came back and continued his formation learning.

Gu Yi and Di Qing were another round of spiritual energy cultivation and sword intent strengthening cultivation, Li Xinghe said: "Don't you ask why the academy asked us to strengthen your cultivation, but I still let you practice the foundation, aren't you curious?" ”

Gu Yi and Di Qing glanced at each other, and Gu Yi said: "Teacher, didn't you say before, you must strengthen the most basic cultivation in order to practice smoothly, which is the first step to becoming a strong person." ”

Li Xinghe nodded and said, "Okay, then you continue to start strengthening your cultivation." And Yang Lengyun is in the same situation, they are all in the most basic cultivation.

Another month has passed, and Gu Yi and Di Qing are still strengthening their basic cultivation like ascetics, and when they originally thought that they would continue to practice like this next month, Li Xinghe opened his mouth and said, "I will teach you the sword technique from tomorrow." ”

Hearing that Li Xinghe was going to teach his own stunt, Gu Yi and Di Qing's eyes widened, and seeing Gu Yi and Di Qing's expressions, Li Xinghe said: "Don't be so surprised, you may not be able to learn or not, in short, I will definitely hand over my stunt to you, and it depends on your understanding whether you learn it or not." ”

Gu Yi asked softly, "Teacher, do you have any other stunts?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "It's hard to chew too much, but I can tell you that I still have a stunt, let's talk about it when you learn it, you must know that it took me decades to practice this sword art to this point." ”

Gu Yi asked again: "Teacher, how can I get started?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "I divide the sword technique into three parts, the first is to control your own sword to fly as you like, the second is to be able to fly with yourself while controlling your own sword flying, and with three swords is to control other people's swords." ”

Gu Yi remembered when Li Xinghe controlled his sword before, so he asked, "Teacher, are you a great accomplishment now?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "I am invincible at the same level. If the strength is higher than mine, save your life. Unless I reach the level of a god, I may not have a chance to live, but I haven't met a god yet."

Gu Yi asked curiously, "Teacher, what level have you reached now?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "The spirit is one star." ”

Di Qing also hurriedly said: "Wow, the teacher is really a peerless master, envy." How does Mr. Wu Lingjian compare with you? ”

Li Xinghe said: "He is also a star of the lower grade of the spirit, although his archery skills are invincible in the world, but I still say that I am invincible at the same level." ”

Gu Yi and Di Qing gave a thumbs up at the same time and said, "Teacher, domineering." ”

Li Xinghe said: "Why do you have so many questions, hurry up and rest, and seize the time to practice tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Li Xinghe took Gu Yi and Di Qing to the place where he practiced martial arts, and then began to explain how to practice swordsmanship, Li Xinghe said: "The key is actually very simple, that is, you have to communicate with your sword, once you have a connection with your sword, you can start the first step, and when you complete the first step, the next few steps will be natural." ”

Gu Yi asked, "Then how can the teacher communicate with his sword?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "You inject your own aura into your sword, and when you inject your aura, you have to inject your own aura and aura together, that is, when your aura is sent out, you have to inject your consciousness into your aura. ”

Gu Yi and Di Qing both heard the fog, Li Xinghe looked at the two of them with a confused look, and explained: "To put it bluntly, you have to give your aura to your consciousness, and it is your consciousness that controls your sword, which is similar to the weapon they feed themselves, but once we cover all consciousness to all weapons, you can control other people's weapons, but the only drawback is that this effect can only be effective against the sword, not very effective against other weapons, as for the reason, I haven't figured it out, It could also be that we have been using the sword for a long time, so it only has an effect on the sword. ”

Gu Yi and Di Qing still couldn't understand it, Li Xinghe said: "It's a little difficult, you first inject the sword into the aura, and then think about your sword when you inject it, you must inject your consciousness or thoughts with the aura, don't worry, the process is very long." ”

Gu Yi asked: "Teacher, how do you know that you have practiced?" ”

Li Xinghe said: "If your sword can move with your thoughts, it means that you have already started." Okay, you can practice it yourself. ”

Although Gu Yi and the others didn't quite understand it yet, they could only start cultivating according to what Li Xinghe said.

Yang Lengyun has been in contact with the leaf fighting for two months here, and Yang Lengyun thought that he would continue to fight the leaves this month, but Wu Lingjian came over and told him: "Next, we will start to cultivate the body method, and the cultivation identity is divided into two parts, one part is that I will make a move first, and you will hide by yourself, when you can avoid my attack and when you will start the next step of cultivation, as long as you dodge once, you will be successful." ”

Yang Lengyun said: "Then what is the second part? ”

Wu Lingjian said: "The second part is very simple, you hit me and hide, even if you hit me once, even if you succeed, this period of cultivation will be over." ”

Yang Lengyun sighed and said, "Is this simple? Is this simply impossible? ”

Wu Lingjian said: "You can rest assured that I will control it, but you can do whatever it takes to deal with the enemy, if you don't make a move like this, I estimate that you have no chance at all, so you need to use all your strength." ”

In this way, Gu Yi and Di Qing began to ponder the stunt that Li Xinghe handed over to them. Compared with Gu Yi and Di Qing, Yang Lengyun was more miserable, no matter how he hid, he was hit by Wu Ling's arrow every time, and almost his whole body was beaten blue at the end of the day. So the next time was Gu Yi and Di Qing's penance, and Yang Lengyun was beaten.

Another month has passed, Gu Yi and Di Qing have not made any progress at all, Li Xinghe knows that this is still too difficult for them, but Li Xinghe still has no reservations, of course he wants to test their understanding. But on this day, Li Xinghe told Gu Yi and Di Qing: "Next, while we are practicing what I gave you, we have started a new round of confrontation training, and it is actually quite boring to let you always practice penance, let's add some color to our lives." ”

For the next time, Gu Yi and Di Qing were beaten day by day, and Yang Lengyun was beaten every day. Just four months have passed, but the strength of the three of them has obviously improved a lot, and Gu Yi has also risen from 1 star to 2 stars from 1 star to 2 stars, Yang Lengyun has also risen from 1 star to 2 stars and now it is a little less difficult to dodge Wu Ling's arrows, and the speed of dodging has obviously accelerated a lot, but he still can't dodge, so he is still beaten again every day.

When the time of half a year came, although Gu Yi and Di Qing had not yet comprehended the introduction of swordsmanship, their sparring with Li Xinghe was obviously enhanced, and they felt that the strength of the two apprentices had increased significantly, and Li Xinghe said that today's battle cultivation is here, and you can continue to start your own comprehension.

And Yang Lengyun is not very lucky here, no matter what, he can't dodge, no matter what, he will be beaten, Yang Lengyun also began to think about how to deal with it, facing every attack. After thinking about it for a long time, Yang Lengyun didn't have a big way, whether he was hiding behind a tree, he would be beaten through the trunk by the teacher and hit himself, how do you say this. So in the end, Yang Lengyun decided to compare the speed and try to hide with all his might when he saw the time.

So when Wu Lingjian watched Yang Lengyun stand still and didn't run the next day, he understood that this kid wanted to dodge, because every time he shot a stone, he would subconsciously predict the running position of this kid, but now he has the initiative if he doesn't run, Wu Lingjian is secretly glad that this kid finally figured it out, but he didn't expect Yang Lengyun to think about this layer at all, what Yang Lengyun wanted was to fight with him for speed, because Yang Lengyun was also sure that Wu Lingjian would definitely not go all out, so when Wu Lingjian shot out of this stone, Yang Lengyun saw the time and started directly with all his strength Sure enough, when the stone was close to Yang Lengyun, Yang Lengyun pulled away from the limit, making the stone empty, and when he saw that he was not hit, Yang Lengyun ran out happily and said, "Teacher, I won." Can we start the second round now? ”

Wu Lingjian still had a serious face but was happy to die in his heart, and being able to avoid it showed that this kid's strength had improved again, so he said directly: "Then let's start now." ”

Yang Lengyun didn't hesitate at all, and directly took out his bow and arrow and fired, and when he shot an arrow, he also said: "Teacher, you said that you treat you as an enemy, don't blame the student for me." ”

Wu Lingjian looked indifferent, when Yang Lengyun's arrow came over, he obviously saw that he was about to shoot, and saw that Wu Ling's arrow only moved a little arrow and passed, Yang Lengyun was beaten for so many days, and he was still a little aggrieved in his heart, and he finally caught an opportunity to beat the master justifiably, so he simply started the offensive and shot arrow after arrow wildly, not giving Wu Lingjian a chance to react at all. But Wu Lingjian simply put his hand behind his back, and then stepped back and forth from side to side. So whenever I see every arrow about to be shot, but it still misses, I think in this scene, if Wu Lingjian is holding a cup of tea in his hand, it is estimated that he can hide while drinking tea.

After attacking for a while, he didn't even touch Wu Lingjian's clothes, Yang Lengyun gave up and said, "Teacher, I gave up because I couldn't beat you like this, and I still won't fight." Just as Yang Lengyun finished speaking, a student ran over to Wu Lingjian and said that there was something important for him to go to the council hall, and at the same time Li Xinghe also received a notice, but after Wu Lingjian and Li Xinghe left, Gu Yi, Di Qing, and Yang Lengyun continued their practice.
