Chapter 59: The Five Realms of the Way of the Sword
-
Feng Qingyang laughed and said, "Then listen up!"
"My sword technique is called Dugu Nine Swords, which was created by the predecessor of 'Sword Demon' Dugu. ”
"Listen to this mantra!"
Feng Qingyang shook his head and chattered.
"Returning to the sister tends to be non-delusional, non-delusional tends to be the same person, the same person tends to be big, A to C, C to Geng, Geng to Gui, Zichou's friend, Tatsumi's friend, Wuwei's friend, wind and thunder is a change, Shanze is a change, water and fire are a change, Qiankun is excited, shocking and excitating, leaving Xun is excited, three increases become five, five increases become nine......"
Lin Shu concentrated his attention and listened carefully, this Dugu Nine Swords general recipe is taken from "Zhou Yi", there are heavenly stems and earthly branches, as well as gossip cloth, without a deep knowledge of easy learning, it is completely incomprehensible.
Although Lin Shu sounded struggling, it was okay, and it was not in vain to read the book in the Huashan Scripture Pavilion before.
After a while, Feng Qingyang finally stopped, looked at Lin Shu and asked, "Lin boy, can you remember?"
Lin Shu recalled for a while, and said slowly: "I almost remember ninety percent." ”
Feng Qingyang was a little surprised, and asked, "I didn't expect that Lin boy, you have a good memory, the old man only read it once, and he remembered it almost." ”
Lin Shu waved his hand modestly and said, "The younger generation just has a better memory, and those who can't learn it will have to say anything." ”
Feng Qingyang nodded and said, "It's not bad to be modest, so I'll recite it again, remember, this general outline of swordsmanship is not wrong at all!
Feng Qingyang looked at Lin Shu seriously, opened his mouth and began to recite the general outline again.
"Returning to my sister tends to be innocent ......"
Lin Shu followed closely behind, silently recited it in his heart, compared it, and found no mistakes.
"Ahem, can you remember it all?"
Feng Qingyang cleared his throat and asked slowly.
Lin Shu nodded in confirmation.
"That's fine, then, I'll teach you swordsmanship. Lin boy, do you know, why is this sword technique called Dugu Nine Swords? 'Dugu' is needless to say, it is the name of Dugu's predecessors, but what does this 'Nine Swords' mean?"
Feng Qingyang didn't spread the swordsmanship, but instead sold Guan Zi and looked at Lin Shu with a smile on his face.
Lin Shu pretended not to know, and replied hesitantly: "Isn't it that this swordsmanship only has nine moves, and Dugu's predecessors called it 'Dugu Nine Swords'!"
Feng Qingyang nodded and shook his head, and said, "Yes and no." ”
"Yes, it's 'yes', it's not 'no', where is 'yes and no'?" Lin Shu asked suspiciously.
"This sword technique does not have nine moves, but nine styles. ”
Feng Qingyang smiled proudly and said slowly.
"This ...... What's the difference?"
Feng Qingyang waved his hand and said, "This is a big difference. ”
"These nine styles are the general decision, the sword, the sword, the gun, the whip, the rope, the palm, the arrow, and the air. ”
"There are all kinds of variations, and there are 360 variations in the general formula. ”
"Breaking the sword style, dedicated to cracking all the swordsmanship of all sects in the world!"
"Broken knife type, you can crack all kinds of single knife, double knife, lancet, ghost head knife, machete, horse chopping knife and other knife techniques!"
"Breaking the spear, cracking all kinds of spears, halberds, snake spears, Qi Mei sticks, maces, ash rods, Zen sticks, convenient shovels and other long blade methods!"
"Breaking the whip style, cracking all kinds of steel whips, point slings, abductors, Emei thorns, daggers, axes, iron cards, octagonal mallets, iron spine and other short blades!"
"Breaking ropes, cracking all kinds of soft blades such as long ropes, short whips, three-section sticks, chain guns, iron chains, fishing nets, flying hammers, meteors, etc.!"
"Breaking the palm style, cracking all kinds of fists and feet, finger kung fu, long fists and short fights, grabbing points, eagle claws and tiger claws, iron sand palms and other fists and feet!"
"To break the arrow and crack all kinds of hidden weapons, you must first learn the technique of 'listening to the wind and distinguishing the weapon', knocking away all kinds of hidden weapons launched by the opponent, and using the hidden weapon fired by the opponent to reflect and injure the enemy! I will talk about this technique of 'listening to the wind and distinguishing the weapon' later. ”
"The last is the Qi Breaking Type, which is dedicated to cracking the superior internal strength, and has a great ability to restrain the internal force. ”
Feng Qingyang took out these nine styles one by one in one breath.
Lin Shu was already surprised when he listened to it, and said with a wry smile: "This 'Nine Swords' sounds easy, but after listening to what the seniors said, the juniors have no confidence, that is, just reciting these nine styles is already extremely complicated, let alone comprehending them. ”
Feng Qingyang comforted and said: "You can't be arrogant, Dugu's predecessor is an extremely smart person, and the gist of learning his swordsmanship is in the word 'enlightenment', not in rote memorization." ”
"When you understand the sword intent of the nine swords, you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can't do anything, it's all the changes, it's irrelevant, when you're facing the enemy, the cleaner and more thorough you forget, the more you are not bound by the original swordsmanship, the better!"
Lin Shu realized.
This Dugu Nine Swords is to tell the swordsman a sword principle, that is, "no move to win, there is a move", which means not to stick to fixed moves, to adapt to changes, with the simplest, most direct, most accurate and ingenious moves to defeat the opponent.
According to Dugu's experience of seeking defeat, this divides the realm of the sword into five types.
The first realm, the sword has no intention. With the help of the sharpness of the sword, the moves are brought into full play, such as the Heavenly Sword Dragon Slayer, which is a sharp weapon, and the ordinary blade will be broken into two when it comes into contact with it. But no matter how sharp the sword is, it is all a foreign object, and without the sword, its original form is immediately revealed.
The second realm, the soft sword is impermanent. The soft sword is light and flexible, even if it sometimes misses a blow, as long as the backhand is quickly shaken, or the internal strength is immediately urged, the soft sword can immediately pursue the enemy like a long whip spirit snake. However, because its sword body is as soft as silk, and the strength is not easy to grasp and use, it is difficult for those who are not proficient in this way to use it freely.
The third realm, the heavy sword has no edge. Even ordinary moves can exert unimaginable great power, so that the sword, no matter how the opponent moves, whether there is a flaw in the martial arts, just swing a sword directly, but the strength of the teaching is better than the opponent, you can achieve the remarkable effect of breaking ten with one force. The so-called epee is to defeat the opponent head-on in the simplest, most direct, most fierce, and most domineering way.
The fourth realm, the wooden sword is incomprehensible. Although the heavy sword is strong, but after all, the speed is limited, if the skill is profound, the wooden sword has no less effect than the heavy sword, and the speed is deeper, you can reach the point of "flying flowers and picking leaves, can hurt the enemy".
The fifth realm, no sword and no move. Those who have mastered the mysteries, even if they stab out of thin air, can exert great power. With such a powerful sword qi, coupled with the method of "no move to win with a move", together, it is this "no sword and no move".
Therefore, this Dugu seeking defeat is also about the victory of qi over the sword, that is, "there are no tricks to win" is also based on the result of skill.
Lin Shu thought of the few sentences left by Dugu in the sword mound in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and seemed to see the back of the sword demon looking at the world.
