Chapter 55, The Realm of Swordsmanship
Book pick-up:
Lu Qianyu tried to break away from the traditional way of copying and copying, and used his own method to cultivate the "River and Mountain Sword Technique" given by Liu Heshan when he was dying, and he was troubled by the strangeness of this sword technique.
He recalled that when he was a child, Shi Weng had shallow teachings on kendo and explored the root of it.
The sword, the supreme of thousands of weapons, contains so many changes that it is innumerable, far from being comparable to other weapons.
Every swordsmanship, no matter how high or low, simple or complex, can derive infinite changes and gorgeous moves in the hands of excellent swordsmen, which makes people dizzy and admired.
Even the strongest swordsman on the rivers and lakes is difficult to grasp all the changes of one-step swordsmanship, he can only get close to infinity, and the deepest place is like an ethereal star.
Just as water has a source, like people have life, things have death.
The sword is the same as ever.
It seems complicated, but it's actually simple.
It's as simple as that.
One move, open the world.
One move, separate black and white.
Although there are 10,000,000 variations of the sword, it can be roughly broken down into nine ways to shoot: teasing, plucking, picking, sweeping, swinging, stabbing, chopping, chopping, and splitting.
The formation of swordsmanship is the staggered combination of these nine kinds of swordsmanship, thus evolving different swordsmanship.
The strength, angle, and method of the swordsman's shot will further evolve the swordsmanship, and it will be wonderful and wonderful!
A swordsman, whether he holds a sword in both hands or a sword in one hand.
Right hand, or left hand.
Is it a short sword, or a long sword.
A hard sword, or a short sword.
Rapier, or broadsword,
Wooden swords, or iron swords.
Several factors will make sword moves change, making it difficult to achieve enlightenment.
Lu Qianyu couldn't find the key to "River and Mountain Sword Technique", and this was the key.
Because this swordsmanship was created in Liuhe Mountain, it is suitable for river and mountain swords, and it is tailor-made. Lu Qianyu does not have the lame feet of Liuheshan, the age of Liuheshan, and the sword of Heshan, so it is naturally difficult to comprehend the essence of "Heshan Swordsmanship".
In the rivers and lakes, for hundreds of years, there has been a school of swordsmanship, which is deafening and shouting a voice that is different from other schools.
The sword begins with the form and ends with the heart.
From this comes a universally accepted point of view.
There is no strongest swordsman in the world, only the swordsman who knows the most about swords.
As the saying goes, sword moves are dead, swordsmanship is also dead, and people are alive.
Swordsmanship comes from the sword, which becomes the shackles of swordsmanship and frames the true artistic conception of swordsmanship.
Only by truly understanding the sword can we comprehend the great realm of swordsmanship.
People who know swords, regardless of the moves, come with a wave, shoot freely, often no sword moves win with sword moves, but if you can achieve this, even if you have touched the threshold of the strongest swordsman.
Why is "A Thousand Armies Broken" strong, and why are people on the rivers and lakes taboo about it?
At this point, Lu Qianyu also asked Shi Weng, and the answer he gave was very simple.
is because "A Thousand Armies" only has nine chapters and twenty-seven moves, and because it is simple, it is extremely strong.
Lu Qianyu didn't understand it at that time, and he still can't understand it now, why the simpler the swordsmanship, the more powerful it is. And the more complex the swordsmanship, the mediocre performance?
Shi Weng has passed away for the long time, and the person who can reveal the answer to him has not yet appeared.
Lu Qianyu has been bothered by this issue for at least two days.
The tricks of "River and Mountain Swordsmanship", he memorized the melons well, and played a set of them step by step, and he didn't feel anything profound, and compared with other mediocre swordsmanship, it was even more unbearable.
He had seen Liu Heshan use earth-shattering mountains and rivers from this swordsmanship, and the swordsmanship itself would definitely not be as clumsy as it appeared. The problem is mainly with him, not the sword technique itself, if it is him, he can't use the magic of this sword technique, even the knife has been tried. He shook his head and commented that this "River and Mountain Swordsmanship" is simply inferior, of course, out of respect for the old predecessors of Liuheshan, the knife did not say a word out.
He said that this swordsmanship may be too subtle, he is only a shallow learner, and he himself is a knife user, so he definitely can't understand the avenue contained in the deep swordsmanship.
This sentence made Lu Qianyu empathize, and there seemed to be some truth, just like what the knife said, it may be that Lu Qianyu's own understanding of swordsmanship is still biased, and he can't touch the avenue that contains the trick of mountains and rivers. is like Lu Blade, who also uses "Thousand Armies", his swordsmanship is obviously several levels higher than Lu Qianyu, which can only show that Lu Qianyu is not good at learning, is it no wonder that he learned the parallel goods "Thousand Armies"?
Therefore, on the fifth day, Lu Qianyu pondered and finally found his understanding of sword training.
The sword is not about learning, but about being proficient.
Familiarity does not lie in refinement, but in solution.
The solution lies not in the breaking, but in the Tao.
Only by finding its way can it become its instrument.
Only by refining its soul can it become its realm.
With no sword, winning with a sword is the highest state of a swordsman.
Since then, his goal is not only the "Thousand Armies Broken" in his heart and the "River and Mountain Swordsmanship" in his hand, but also to ask his sword path and find his sword realm.
After recognizing this, Lu Qianyu's whole person was full of energy, like a butterfly breaking out of a cocoon, and temporarily put down the "River and Mountain Sword Technique" in his hand, and did not practice "Thousand Armies". Wander around the ship like an idler, and naturally help wherever you can, such as cleaning the cabin, catching a few daring mice, and talking about martial arts with the guards. Even sometimes, I even played a few tricks with the guards.
When it comes to tricks, both sides tend to point to the point, using brooms, tree bars, etc., rather than real swords.
The guards on the ship who fought with him were a few old guys with little kung fu, and there were also young people with enthusiasm, and there were no less than ten people with swords and knives.
Ever since Lu Qianyu defeated a swordsman with a serial knife, there has been an endless stream of challenges, and it seems that they regard the competition with Lu Qianyu as a pastime on a big ship. During the competition, some people opened a gambling game, and many people bought what Lu Qianyu won, and they all made a fortune at once.
On the fifth day, one morning, Lu Qianyu successively defeated two swordsmen, and a swordsman, and another person with a sledgehammer.
The man who used the sledgehammer left a deep impression on Lu Qianyu, he had a body of hard muscles like stones, two arms thicker than his calves, and infinite strength.
In order not to hurt the big ship, the two specially chose a vacant land on the dock to compete, the person who used the sledgehammer was called Lu Chengyuan, he was old, about twenty, the two sledgehammers danced very old and spicy, and they couldn't hold back their hands several times during the competition, and almost rushed to blood.
The sledgehammer is already difficult to control, he has a lot of strength, the hammer is heavy, Lu Qianyu used Gu Han to hit his sledgehammer a few times, which shocked Lu Qianyu all over his body, if Gu Han was not a good sword, he might have been smashed a long time ago.
Even if it is a competition, Lu Qianyu definitely doesn't want to lose.
The onlookers present, including the guards on the big boat, as well as other heroes on the rivers and lakes, and even boatmen, fishermen, and landowners, all came to see the excitement.
So he switched to using skillful strength to compete with Lu Chengyuan, as long as Gu Han attached a sledgehammer, he immediately retracted his strength, not only Gu Han was beaten by the sledgehammer, but even he himself flew with him. Then, with the help of the other party's strength, he skillfully tossed and turned, and took advantage of the situation to make a sword, a sword is heavier than a sword, a sword is more difficult than a sword, Lu Chengyuan almost kept swinging the sledgehammer, no matter how much strength a person has, he can't stand the endless waste.
In the end, Lu Chengyuan didn't touch Lu Qianyu a few times, and he was so tired that he was out of breath. Lu Qianyu seized the opportunity and swept his neck with a sword, and in just a fraction of a second, he was able to cut off the opponent's head.
Lu Chengyuan was angry, waiting for the round glasses to say that Lu Qianyu was a scoundrel.
And Lu Qianyu smiled and told him that if it was in a duel, he would have died a long time ago, what does it make if he plays it or not, the rivers and lakes are sometimes so cruel, it only depends on the result, but no matter the way.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chengyuan was speechless, and secretly admired Lu Qianyu in his heart, because what Lu Qianyu said was very reasonable, the enemy will never give you a chance, if you lose, you will lose, and you must afford to lose.
After a series of competitions, Lu Qianyu's fame on the ship became more and more famous. The knife was naturally interested, he knew that he couldn't beat Lu Qianyu but still wanted to try, and was scolded by Lu Qianyu for a few words, but he still didn't give up, and chased Lu Qianyu for a long time. As a result, as soon as Lu Qianyu made a move, in less than three moves, the knife raised his hand and surrendered.
He said that this was just a joke with Lu Qianyu. He pointed out that these were what his father had told him:
The knife is never used to face a friend, and if he has to use the knife, he can insert it into his friend's ribs, but not in the other's chest.
Although Lu Qianyu realized the theoretical threshold of the highest realm of swordsmanship, he won the competition in a row, and was valued by others, and even became Lu Shaoxia. However, he could not be happy. The Demon Flame Sect's delay in not moving is really unrestful, and once they take action, it will inevitably be a vicious battle, thinking that these heroes on the big ship, and even a few people who fought against him, may die in Huangquan, of course, including himself, his heart will inevitably fluctuate and be uneasy.
At this time, he was under the horse lamp, thinking about the affairs of the Demon Flame Sect with his arms on his pillow, and the knife was lying on the door of the cabin, shouting, "Brother Lu, it's time to eat." ”
