Chapter 14: Cultivating the Sword in the Heart (Thanks to the Alliance Leader of Feng Qiyue)
Bi Santai's words touched Lei Changye deeply.
Since the crossing, he has been struck by the thunder, and survival has become Lei Changye's persistence for twenty years. Even if he invented the thunder swallowing talisman, even if he practiced the horizontal exercises, he still couldn't struggle in a state of survival.
The thunderstorm passed, and the fifth day came. His philosophy of survival has never changed.
But today, Lei Changye suddenly found that he had been hiding in Shushan, and he seemed to be a little reluctant to seek the distance. If he can go deep into the red dust of this Tang Dynasty Illusory World, maybe he will be closer to the road to immortality that he longs for.
Bi Santai in front of him suddenly covered his mouth with his fist, turned his head, suppressed his voice, and coughed lowly.
Lei Changye's heart sank.
In the battle with the Twelve Yamen, the master did what Dong Chou, the sect leader of the Fu Sect, needed to use the Heaven and Man Unity Talisman to do, and with his refined heart sword, he beheaded a witch master with one sword.
It's a pity that he fell for the voodoo that the witch master inspired before he died, which corroded the dantian qi sea, not only fell by a grade, but also the realm was not improved, which made him lose the value of following in the eyes of his disciples.
To this day, Master's old wounds are still aching.
Now, the other disciples have worshiped other masters, and in the master's door, only two disciples are left, himself and the little junior sister. If he doesn't go down the mountain to practice, there will be no other disciples to increase the path and accumulate merit for the master. His rank can only stop at the peak of the fifth grade in this life.
I can't let the little sister go down the mountain for her father to go down the mountain to this extremely treacherous and natural disaster.
It seems that it's time to change and take the route of meat and output: while the meat is pressing, the damage is still high.
Prepare for going down the mountain to accumulate merit for the master and himself, and increase the path. Perhaps, God is pitiful, and with his efforts, he can still see the day when the Internet appears in advance.
"The apprentice implores the master to teach the art of sword raising!" Lei Changye made up his mind, knelt on the ground, and bowed to Bi Santai three times in a row.
"Oh, so suddenly, hum, think about it......" Bi Santai turned around, touched his goatee, and made a thoughtful gesture.
Lei Changye bowed his head and knelt on the ground, forced a smile, and made a sincere request for advice.
Bi Santai got up in the early morning, dressed in a samurai suit, carrying a sword in his hand, and opened his mouth to say a big truth, what do you want to do, do you still need to guess?
Bi Santai's swordsmanship came from actual combat, and it was completely different from the swordsmanship practice order of the Shushan Sword Sect, so the sword theory was very different. This is also the reason why he disdains to go to the Sword Sect and wants to come to the Fu Sect instead.
But none of the disciples he accepted wanted to learn his swordsmanship, and the road was too wild. In addition, his swordsmanship did not allow him to retreat from the battle of the Twelve Yamen, and it did not help him step to a higher level in the realm.
"The way of the sword is the first focus. Do you know what is the most important character of a swordsman?" asked Bi Santai.
"Uh......" Lei Changye had never thought carefully about the science of defeating the enemy, so he was confused.
"Alas. True rotten wood also. Bi Santai shook his head, "The most important character, of course, is: brave!"
"......I see," Lei Changye nodded, it turned out that playing with a sword would ...... Wave.
"Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the way of the sword has come from killing. Like all martial arts, the principles of kendo are contrary to human nature, and are very different from the methods of fist fighting. But when it came to the Taoist sects, in order to cater to the Taoism of self-cultivation, it became flushed and calm, and the method of using the sword is no different from fists and feet, focusing on defense, dodging, parrying, and hurting the enemy with qi, which is simply putting the cart before the horse......"
Lei Changye's heart pounded when he heard this: "Could it be that this is the beginning of the battle between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect?" ”
"Fists and feet fight, a punch comes, dodge can gain momentum, defense can gain momentum, even if it doesn't dodge, don't defend it, at most rub it, and don't lose the fundamentals. But when the blades fight, a sword stabs, and if you don't dodge, if you don't defend it, you're gone. Even if it is a parry, it will lose its stance, giving people a chance to advance in combos. Therefore, when you use the sword to be brave, there is no advance or retreat, the enemy stabs with a sword, and when the sword is broken, it is the time to defeat the enemy. ”
"Ask Master for advice. Seeing that Bi Santai was talking excitedly, Lei Changye hurriedly asked.
"Hmph. Bi Santai touched his goatee's hand, his little thumb, and his ring finger cocked, "My sword way, let's call it sword raising, is to use static braking, strike backward, move because of the enemy, and succeed in one blow." The first section of swordsmanship, nourishing the spirit in the sword, holding the two forces of yin and yang. In the second paragraph, he moved when he heard the enemy and changed because of the enemy. In the third paragraph, the enemy enters and I advance, and I listen to the strength to break the enemy. ”
"Today, I'm going to teach you how to raise a sword. Bi Santai said proudly.
Bi Santai's sword cultivation technique not only made Lei Changye suddenly, but also made him have a strong desire to learn swords.
The sword cultivation technique is secretly in line with the internal marksmanship and swordsmanship of the later generations of the Blue Starfish World, but it is more wonderful.
The first step in raising a sword is to choose a fine iron bar, about nine feet long.
Lei Changye wanted to inject the Shushan Tianyi Wuji True Qi he cultivated into the fine iron bar, so that it initially possessed the two forces of yin and yang, which meant that this iron bar had the flexibility and elasticity similar to that of a willow branch, with rigidity and softness, and rigidity and softness.
Then he has to lift the fine iron bar horizontally every day, relying on the yin and yang forces in the fine iron bar and the yin and yang qi in the body to continue to blend, merge the two into one, adjust and cooperate with each other, and try to maintain the flat lifting of the fine iron bar.
The fine iron bar weighed about ten swords, and with Lei Changye's current strength, he could barely do it for an hour. However, to lift six hours, it is difficult.
It must rely on the shaking of joints, meridians, and bones and the two forces of yin and yang in the fine iron bar to shake into one, and the muscles are relaxed one by one, taking turns to rest, and the yin and yang cycle is endless.
On the first day, Lei Changye fell to the ground exhausted at the second hour. I had to be supported by the little sister to go back to my bed and lie down.
The next day, he worked hard to finally adjust the yin and yang forces in the fine iron bar and the yin and yang qi in his body to a balance point, and there was a tendency to merge the two into one and resonate harmoniously.
On this day, he lasted until the second hour, but he was so tired that he fainted.
On the third day, he fine-tuned the yin and yang qi again, trying to resonate with the fine iron bar, adding another half an hour.
Half a month later, Lei Changye felt that he seemed to have a little inexplicable relationship with this iron rod. It was as if his own primordial spirit had entered this iron rod a little.
After another half a month, he has been able to unite with the two forces of yin and yang in the fine iron bar, resonating harmoniously, holding the iron rod for a day and a night without rest, and still in good spirits.
A month later, Bi Santai took Lei Changye to the craftsman's workshop and asked him to cut the fine iron bars into nine sections to make nine long swords.
Lei Changye is no stranger to forging blades. When he was cultivating the golden bell hood iron cloth shirt, he was once trained by his master to forge iron and observe the changes of iron in the furnace fire, so as to comprehend the key to hard work.
Because of his lively mind and ingenuity, he not only learned the iron cloth shirt of the golden bell hood, but also practiced excellent blacksmithing work by the way, which laid the foundation for his future activity in the craftsman's workshop.
Moreover, it is also a fine tradition for Shushan disciples to build blades for themselves. Even among the eighteen swords in charge, eight of them were made by himself.
However, Lei Changye had never fought for himself before, because defense supremacy was his philosophy, and he didn't need anything that didn't increase his flesh.
When he hit the first sword, he felt as if his Yuan Shen had also been forged on the anvil, turning into a piece of red-hot iron, and it became sharp and sharp little by little in his own hammering.
When he hit the second sword, his feeling was even more pronounced. His eyes seem to see things more clearly, he is more sensitive to the subtle changes of things, and even the color changes of the flames in the furnace are more layered, rich and delicate.
When he hit the third sword, Lei Changye felt unexpectedly calm and serene, as if his soul had been reborn after being baptized by karmic fire.
The fourth sword, the fifth sword...... He clearly felt that this was a wonderful way to practice kendo. Some of the primordial spirits that he had integrated into the sword were sublimated in the flames and gave the ontology extremely positive feedback.
He felt that his spirit and spirit had improved in an all-round way, and even the realm of Xiao Sanpin was about to move.
By the time he finished fighting the nine swords, his inner family rank had unconsciously evolved from the small third rank to the middle third grade, and after a big third grade, he could go hand in hand with the junior sister's peak three grades.
"Master, my realm has improved!" Lei Changye couldn't help but say to Bi Santai.
"Very good, I read that right, you are really suitable for sword training. Next, I will teach you the second paragraph of the sword cultivation technique: move when you hear the enemy, and change because of the enemy. Bi Santai nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes!" said Lei Changye excitedly.
Bi Santai asked Lei Changye to pick a freshly refined long sword and come to the practice ground with him.
"In the second section of sword raising, the emphasis is on looking, smelling, and walking.
Look at the enemy's clothing, complexion, eyes, guess his sect, temperament and state of mind.
Smell – Smell the breath of the enemy and guess the enemy's attack habits.
Go - detour, grab the position. Focus on the waist and legs and light skills, when facing the enemy, grab the middle line, find the closest route to attack, and seize the winning point. ”
Bi Santai took a wooden sword and raised the sword to Lei Changye: "Come, let's practice one." ”
"Yes!" Lei Changye picked up the sword he had just refined, and did a good job of Shushan Tianyi's swordsmanship.
"The first step, I look! Thunder is a long night, and the only weakness is in the eyes, ears and mouth. The disciples of Shushan practice the Tianyi sword, focusing on defense and counterattack. Smell, this person is a novice, inexperienced, and the habit of attacking is to attack the opponent's wrist. Walk ......"
Bi Santai quickly grabbed the front of Lei Changye and stabbed him with a sword with one hand. Lei Changye hurriedly raised his sword and pushed away the attack of the wooden sword. Bi Santai's body suddenly moved forward, and he reached out and grabbed his sword, and the wooden sword in his right hand took advantage of the momentum, and the tip of the sword trembled, pointing at Lei Changye's eyes.
"See, I grabbed the middle line, the attack was the fastest, your sword defense was slow, the sword was weak, I was caught, I took advantage of the situation to attack, and I blinded you in both eyes with a sword. Why? Because I'm looking, smelling, walking and suppressing you in all directions. Bi Santai said in a deep voice.
"Master is mighty!" Lei Changye gasped. Although his eyes have also been practiced, but Master's swordsmanship is really domineering, and he doesn't give him a way to live, he likes this tune so much.
"Sword fighting, first go to the brain, then go to the heart, and finally follow the sword. For example, there are seventy-two pavilions of eight sects today, plus the twelve yamen of Nanwu, each sect has countless stunts. There are two kinds of stunts, the ones that are on the surface, and the tricks that are hidden in private. If you want to defeat the enemy, you must not only guess the open move, but also calculate the yin move. ”
"Each disciple has a set of combos, a combination of light and dark, which is very lethal, and is often a magic weapon to defeat the enemy. However, against our swordsmen who raise sword streams, the opponent who is obsessed with combos is best dealt with, just by looking and smelling, and knowing a little bit of the characteristics of the martial arts of the eight schools, he can be completely suppressed. ”
"I'm here today, I have a booklet here, which roughly explains the martial arts characteristics of the disciples of different sects, and how to use the sword cultivation technique to defeat the enemy. ”
Bi Santai threw a booklet of more than 20 pages to Lei Changye.
After Lei Changye took it, he looked through it hungrily, and was suddenly stunned: "Master, this is all an index." ”
"Yes!" Bi Santai gave him a key, "the books in the index are in the storeroom behind my house, this is the key." ”
