Chapter Forty-Nine: He Zhang
There was no one else around, and Yu Feng knew very well that he was talking to him. "The elder brother smiled, the younger brother had not learned any moves, and he had just started to cultivate, so how could he fight with his brother. Yu Feng reached out and wiped it on his face, and the rain ran down his hair, blocking his vision.
He Zhang listened and withdrew the long knife in his hand. "In that case, forget it. Practicing in the rain is indeed a bit physically exhausted. Today, I am afraid that there are only you and I in this forest, and seeing each other is fate, and my friend is willing to go with me to the front pavilion for a short rest. As he spoke, He Zhang stretched out his hand and pointed ahead.
Yu Feng did feel a little tired, and after a little thought, he nodded in agreement. He followed behind He Zhang, and the two walked forward together.
After walking a short distance, I saw a pavilion appear in front of me. Yu Feng is no stranger here, it is the place where he apprenticed, the place where he met Du Yuesong that day. After apprenticing that day, I hurriedly walked down the mountain, but I didn't notice the location of the pavilion, it turned out that I passed by this neighborhood every day.
Entering the pavilion, the feeling of the rain hitting your face finally disappeared. The two of them tidied up their clothes a little, and then sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion.
"I didn't expect to see someone exercising so diligently in this heavy rain, although you are incapable now, but with this determination and perseverance, I think you will definitely succeed in cultivation in the future. As soon as he sat down, He Zhang took the lead in speaking.
"My brother is not such a resolute person, why should he reward me. If it weren't for my own average qualifications and slow progress, how could I still not stop in this weather. ”
He Zhang smiled. "The fate of man is determined by heaven, but there are not a few people who rely on their own efforts to reverse the destiny of heaven. In ancient times, Lu Rong, the general of our clan, was born blind, and the conditions were not good at that time, and he could not cure his eyes throughout his life, but he did not lose to others in battle, and he created a set of techniques suitable for blind people to practice, which has been passed down to this day. Xue Huiqiang, the seventh spirit king of Tianling, has been stupid and unmotivated since he was a child. At the age of twenty-three, his family declined, and since then he has worked hard, experienced hardships, and used nearly 30 years to reincarnate himself, and finally ascended to the throne. There are many more examples of this, maybe you are next, brother. He Zhang seemed to be encouraging Yu Feng to say this.
"Thank you brother for encouraging me, although I am dull, I am willing to give my life a fight. The younger brother's name is Yu Feng, and I don't know the elder brother's name. Yu Feng asked He Zhangshili.
He Zhang also gave a salute and replied: "In Xia He Zhang, it has been more than a year since I came here to self-study. Seeing that you are not much younger than me, if you wish, call yourself a brother. ”
"It turns out that Brother He has been here for some time, no wonder he is so good. ”
"Brother Yufeng smiled, I followed my father to learn the exercises when I was young, but I was greedy for fun at that time, and I didn't practice hard enough. My father saw that I was not successful, so he sent me here to study on my own, and made an agreement with me when I would surpass my father and when I would be able to go home. At first, I just came here to play, and I didn't take the spiritual things to heart, but then I gradually changed and started to learn something. Until a month and a half ago, bad news came from his hometown, Xilu was occupied by foreigners. That's when I realized how important it was to practice hard. If I also have that earth-shattering combat power, I can protect everyone around me, and I can save my hometown from war. It's just a pity that I didn't. ”
He Zhang's gaze darkened a little as he spoke. But at this point, it is back to normal. "So, I have to work harder to cultivate now, although it's a little late, but I can't give up just yet. As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yu Feng. "You, how did you get here, and why did you come here. ”
Yu Feng had just listened to He Zhang's confession, and before he could calm down, he began to ask him about it. So he thought about it for a while, and found that he didn't have a story to tell, and his coming here was basically an accident, and no one had made special arrangements. However, of course, he would not say it so directly.
"Well, I don't have anything to say. When foreign tribes invaded, the Spirit King summoned young people from all over the world to come here for training to deal with future crises. I was originally a small person in a mountain village, so I was not qualified to come here, but due to various opportunities, I met an envoy sent by the Heavenly Spirit, and reluctantly agreed to take me here. My parents, who were honest mountain people, agreed to let me come just so that I could learn something so that I could protect myself when the unknown war came. Looking back now, I feel like I really got here by coincidence. Yu Feng said with a smile.
He Zhang also smiled, "There is a destiny in the dark, since God arranged for you to come here, naturally you have other intentions, Brother Yufeng can persevere, and he is still training in this heavy rain, so he also has a heart." ”
"I just feel that I am stupid, and if I don't work harder, I am afraid that I will never achieve anything. With this thought, he came out in the rain. ”
"Rain is a treasure given by God to the common people, and everything grows without it. Practicing in the rain can hone people's will. If I get used to it and fight in the rain, I can gain an excellent advantage, which is also an important reason why I practice in the rain. He Zhang looked at the continuous torrential rain outside the pavilion and said silently.
The rain outside the pavilion has decreased, but it has no intention of stopping. The rain crackling down on the old pavilion was heard very clearly in the early morning.
"If one day, I am successful in my cultivation, I will definitely lead the soldiers of my clan to return to Xilu City, so that my relatives in my hometown will no longer suffer any suffering. My father has guarded Siru all his life, and I will not let it fall into the hands of outsiders. He Zhang turned his head to Yu Feng and said, "Brother Yu Feng, I hope that in the future, you and I can work together on the battlefield to expel the foreigners." ”
He Zhang stood up as he spoke, and walked out of the pavilion without waiting for Yu Feng to speak. "Alright, it's almost time to get moving. Brother Yufeng, let's stop here today, if you have a chance, we'll talk next time. You should also cultivate hard, and we will meet again at sunrise, and I will have a discussion with you. ”
Yu Feng nodded, watching He Chang disappear into the heavy rain. Then he didn't stay too long, straightened his raincoat, took a deep breath, and got up and rushed into the rain.
The rain continued and continued to fall, and it was still pouring when the wind returned to his dwelling. When he returned to his residence, Yu Feng was completely soaked, but he was very happy that he had met a close friend in the heavy rain. Although he had only just met, he could feel that this He Zhang was a deep friend.
After a short rest, he got up and went out again, braving the rain to go to the refining room.
By midday, the rain had subsided and more people were getting outside, but most people stayed in their rooms. Since it is not convenient to go out, you can meditate and realize the Dharma in your own house, which is also a very good choice.
In a house on the top of the East Mountain, Bai Ya looked out through the window. Everything in the rain seems so hazy, but near the outside of the house, the flowers and plants have become extra fresh and full of vitality under the rain.
Looking at the drizzle outside the window, she couldn't help but think of her hometown of Xilu. I don't know what the situation at home is now, and whether my father is still in charge of the house. Her mother died when she was very young, and her father was the only one to shelter her and her sister from the elements. Now if the rain is pouring in his hometown, who will hold an umbrella for his father.
Bai Ya left the window, no longer caring about the wind and rain outside. Since this morning, she has been meditating in the house and realizing the Dharma. Ren Wensheng had already left this place, but before he left, he specially formulated a cultivation plan for Bai Ya and taught her the techniques of enlightenment, qi gathering, and spirit transformation. In the following days, Bai Ya worked hard to cultivate every day according to Ren Wensheng's instructions. Until now, he has been able to absorb the mana that exists between heaven and earth, and transform it into a spirit.
Now what she has to do is to control the mana she has obtained from nature, and if she can successfully control the mana in her body, she can use it to cast some spells. Since he started cultivating, Bo Kai seems to be busy cultivating, and now he rarely follows her around, which has made him a lot clearer, so that he can concentrate on spell cultivation and make rapid progress.
This Bo Kai was originally reluctant to let Bai Ya practice any spells, and for safety reasons, he didn't want her to come into contact with combat things. But Bai Ya was furious, and she didn't need others to interfere in her own affairs.
Although the relationship between the two is a little delicate, from Bai Ya's unilateral point of view, she still doesn't like this Bo Kai very much, and always feels that he is a little unscrupulous, but I have to admit that Bo Kai is still very good to her and cares about her. This made her a little nerve-wracking, and she could only take one step at a time.
Bai Ya came to her bed and sat down, retracted her erratic thoughts, calmed herself down, and stopped thinking about anything. Bring your hands together and start meditating. Around her body, a faint white light gradually appeared, and the force of nature, as if summoned by her, converged from all directions to the place where she was.
Not only Yu Feng and Bai Ya, but since the disciples began to cultivate, most of them have worked harder than before. It's just that some people still can't persevere to the end, but the time they persist is long and short, and the degree of effort is high and low. In this environment, there was a lot less laughter and play, and the entire training ground was filled with an atmosphere of hard work.
On this day, when Yu Feng was working hard in the body refining room, Du Yuesong's subordinates found him again. The master looked for him, and of course he had to go there at once, and he followed the man again to the dilapidated pavilion on the mountain. Since chatting with He Chang here, Yu Feng now has to walk a little more every day up the mountain, passing through this place, and stopping here to rest. Sometimes if you meet He Zhang here, I will chat a few words.
Today, the master called himself to come here again, and I don't know what it was for.
