Chapter 57: Sleep

Lu Yu obediently sat on the empty chair beside Luo Qi, and also set his eyes on the book "Martial Arts Cultivation Introductory Training" in Luo Qi's hand.

Luo Qi pointed to the side of the paper he had spread out and said, "You left two questions on this page. First, you write the question in the margin, why can't a warrior attack the other side at the same time while defending. What do you think about this? Lu Xi. ”

Lu Mian blurted out without thinking: "I think you can attack the other party when you are defending." Because if I don't attack the other person, and the other party keeps attacking me, how can I be completely prepared? ”

Luo Qi thought for a while and said, "Your reason is not unreasonable. But I want to tell you that in actual combat, if you attack the opponent while defending, the opponent will only find your flaws, so that your defense will be ineffective. ”

Lu Yu said: "Can't I use both of my heart and attack while defending?" ”

Luo Qi said: "When you are fighting, you are very focused. If you try to do both, you won't be able to grasp it with both hands. When defending, try to protect yourself. If you're attacking with your power, there's going to be a contradiction. I believe that to do a thing, you have to do it well, and you can't do it half-heartedly. It's like if I gave you so many books on practice, you can't just stare at two books at the same time. ”

Lu Yu thought for a while and said, "Yes, if I am dedicated to defense, I can indeed protect myself better." If I want to defend and attack, I'll be in a hurry, and I don't know when to attack and when to defend. ”

Luo Qi said: "That's the truth, what you are doing now is to lay a good foundation." When you become a high-level god of war, it's never too late to think about dual-mindedness. ”

Luo Qi continued: "Your second question is listed under this question. You ask, why do warriors try not to stalk people of their own level and have to divide the winner and loser, but to stop in moderation, and the point is the best. ”

Lu Yu looked at Luo Qi curiously and said, "Master, do you have a lot of combat experience?" ”

Luo Qi said: "I am also a war god in the immortal world, so naturally I have a lot of combat experience." ”

Lu Ji looked at Luo Qi with admiration, and then asked, "So, how to answer this second question?" ”

Luo Qi immediately said, "It's very simple. Since you are at the same level as the other person, there is no need for you to continue to compare. Because neither of them has an absolute chance of winning, procrastination will only exhaust both sides. And when both parties are extremely tired, that's when the two of you are most in danger. I think you must have heard a fable when you were in school before, and that was the praying mantis catching the cicada and the yellow finch behind. There is also an idiom, that is, the snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits. ”

Before Luo Qi finished speaking, Lu Yu immediately answered: "Oh, so that's the case." If two people are both defeated and can't tell the winner, then it is very likely that a third person will take the opportunity to raid them. Both of them will lose badly, and even be picked up by a third person. ”

Luo Qi smiled and nodded, "Lu Yu, you immediately understood, this is indeed the truth." ”

Lu Yu was fascinated by what he heard, and said, "Master, why don't you explain a few more questions to me, do you have time today?" I'm listening to you better than reading a book for ten years. ”

Luo Qi said: "I have a lot of time today, although I will go to Qiu Lin in a while. ”

Lu Yu touched his head embarrassedly and said, "Then let's solve it quickly, you can answer me one more question." After all, Senior Brother Qiu Lin is also your apprentice, and you also need to spend time tutoring him. It's not good for me to dominate you all the time, and let you teach me only one person, Master, right? ”

Luo Qi smiled and said, "No, because I have a lot of apprentices who are already at the level of middle immortals." They don't need sleep, and I can tutor them at night. ”

Lu Yu was a little envious when he heard this, and looked into the distance in a daze.

Then he thought that Qiu Lin was still at the level of a primordial immortal, and said, "Master, why is Senior Brother Qiu Lin still at the level of a primordial immortal?" ”

Luo Qi replied: "Because he wants to lay his foundation as solid as possible, he is reluctant to break through to the middle immortal level." The path of cultivation is often irreversible. After reaching the middle immortal level, there is no way to return to the first immortal level. Sometimes being at the level of a primordial immortal also has its benefits. ”

"Is there any benefit? Isn't the higher the realm, the better? Lu asked puzzled.

"That's sleep." Luo Qi said, patting Lu Xian's head.

Lu Yu was greatly surprised and said, "I thought that sleep was a disadvantage of the early immortal stage, but it turned out to be an advantage." ”

"Yes," Luo Qi said, "because after the first immortal, you don't need to sleep anymore, and you can't sleep even if you want to." ”

Luo Qi continued: "Don't look at sleep as just a state of rest, it's very useful. The process of sleep is a great way to repair the body and can also greatly relax the mind. After you have learned the advanced exercises of alchemy and qi refining, you will find that refining qi and refining inner pills during sleep are extremely efficient. This high efficiency is much higher than when you are awake, and it is also more beneficial to the body. ”

Lu Yu listened, nodded and said, "Yes, I think sleep is also very useful." Even if you are not an immortal, sleep is very important. ”

Luo Qi flipped through Lu Xi's book "Introduction to Martial Arts Cultivation", turned to another question, and said, "You made a note here, you want to know what benefits martial arts cultivation has for breaking through the realm?" ”

"Yes, Master, I would love to know the answer to this question." Lu Yu held his chin and looked at Luo Qi and said.

"There can be many answers to this question." Luo Qi said seductively, "Just like when your Senior Brother Qiu Lin took you on a tour, if he encounters a strong enemy and competes with him for resources, he can defeat the enemy and obtain resources. ”

"There is also a place where you can use martial arts cultivation. That's when you go against your body. When a person cultivates to the highest realm, he will find that his biggest opponent is often himself. If you can train your body and will to an extremely high realm and level, then the meaning of martial arts is to defeat yourself, so to speak, to defeat your original self and break through to a higher realm. Luo Qi told the story.

Lu Yu said, "Yes, Master. These words have benefited me a lot, and I will keep it in my mind. ”

Luo Qi said: "Then today's Q&A will end here." I still have something to go to Qiu Lin, you can read the book yourself for a while. You can take more notes and ask me about them. ”

Lu Yu said: "Okay, Master, please do it." I'm still in the study reading for a while. In the evening, I'll rest on my own. Because sleep is also important. ”
