"Master, Senior Brother Da Kui is straightforward and dull by nature. Now that he has been doing more than two months, he can only use the basic exercises skillfully. Other skills are indeed unattainable, and I hope that the master will show them. Lingxuzi bowed down and stood in front of the Lingzhi Master.

The Venerable Master of Wisdom smiled and said, "All living beings in the world have their own strengths and weaknesses. Art teaching should also vary from person to person, and be guided according to the situation. Call him. Lingxuzi turned around and went out, and returned to the door with Da Kui in just a moment.

Lingxuzi bowed down and said, "Master, Senior Brother Da Kui brought it." ”

The Lingzhi Master said inside, "Lingxu, you can go." Da Kui came in. Da Kui walked into the ashram, bowed down and called Master, and saw Master meditating with his eyes closed on the futon. He also walked to the side and sat down cross-legged, and the master did not speak. Sit up according to the method of tuna taught by the Lingxuzi.

The master and apprentice are like this, you don't speak, I don't speak. I sat there for four hours. Seeing that the sun had sunset, the Venerable Master smiled and opened his eyes and said, "Well, although you are dull, you have perseverance. I know how to teach you. ”

Da Kuixi said, "Really?"

The Master of Wisdom said: "You are here to seek the skill of 'stepping on the snow without a trace, flying leaves hurting people'. However, according to your talents, you can't get it if it's not extreme. When Da Kui heard the Venerable Master say that he still had hope, he couldn't help but dance with joy.

Seeing this, the Master of Wisdom smiled and said, "Don't be happy yet, listen to the teacher and explain to you in detail." Da Kui listened attentively when he heard this, not daring to disturb him a little.

The Venerable Master of Wisdom held his hair and muttered, "All martial arts are divided between inside and outside, and there is a difference between soft and hard, but the different paths are the same. As a teacher, there is still a way to fulfill your wishes. ”

Hearing this, Da Kui nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I'm not afraid of hardship." ”

The Master of Wisdom smiled and nodded, "Well, it will take five years to build the foundation of this method, and you will have to go through a lot of hardships in these five years to achieve something. Da Kui nodded, and did not speak.

The Master of Wisdom also said, "To be a teacher is to transform a person into an outsider, but to seek to have no quarrel with the world." My skills are only for the sake of physical fitness, not for anything else. However, I have accepted you as an apprentice, and I will teach you two skills according to your intelligence: one is called 'walking a hundred miles', once practiced after five years, you can travel two or three hundred miles in one hour, and this skill cannot be obtained by those who are not strong-willed. The second is called 'flying locust stone', which can fly within 50 steps and hit birds is also a hidden weapon. Once these two skills are practiced, the foundation is completed. ”

Hearing this, Da Kui hurriedly kowtowed and said, "I am willing to learn, please teach me from the master." ”

The Master nodded and smiled, "You go back and sew two pockets with sand inside." Every day, tie your legs, and run according to the method passed down by your senior brother, until you are exhausted. When you go to collect medicine with your second senior brother in your spare time, you need to do the same. Do you remember?"

Da Kui said: "I wrote it down."

The Master of Wisdom said, "Take a cloth bag and hang it on your waist, there is a waterfall and a big lake at the bottom of the mountain, and take a bag of pebbles on the shore." Walking in the mountains every day, you can target the leaves and throw stones to the left and right alternately. From near to far, one bag a day, do you remember?"

Da Kui said: "I wrote it down."

The Spiritual Master said, "In that case, go ahead." ”

Da Kui got up and bowed and saluted, "Master, I'm out." ”

On the second day, Da Kui got up in the morning with sandbags tied to each of his legs. Walking on the road in the mountains, although sweating like rain, it is still diligent and practiced. After that, every day for the next month, I ate and slept without unloading my burden. This morning, Senior Brother Ling Xuzi brought a message and said, "Master has a life, you need to add two more sandbags on your body." Da Kui Yiyan added two sandbags to his legs.

Although Da Kui is stupid, he is meticulous in his practice, and every time he comes back from running, he presses his legs and lowers his waist to stand on the horse. And the three-way long fist taught by Senior Brother Lingxuzi, Da Kui has to fight three times every morning.

The second senior brother Kongxuzi is good at the art of Qi Huang, and he picks herbs in the mountains on weekdays and comes back to dry and grind them to make medicine powder. He often went down the mountain to see a doctor for the surrounding people, but he didn't take a penny when he encountered the poor. Da Kui admires the benevolence and magic of the second senior brother, and in addition to practicing every day, he often goes into the mountains with the second senior brother to collect medicine. After January, I am used to it.

During this time, Da Kui learned about two herbs. One is Dendrobium officinalis, and the other is Tiantai black medicine. Tiantai Mountain is full of treasures, and there are many spiritual flowers and fairy grasses. There are as many as 1,000 names, and Da Kui has a bad memory, so there are so many thoughts. However, the second senior brother said that if the Dendrobium people take it, they can strengthen their bodies, and the black medicine is known as the elixir in the world. Although Qingxuguan has fasting rice, Dakui has a large amount of food and has never eaten enough. Therefore, when I saw these two herbs, I never put them in the medicine basket, and I ate them raw, at least to quench my hunger and thirst.

In this way, every month, the senior brother urged Da Kui to add two more sandbags to his body. Spring goes to autumn, cold comes and summer. In the blink of an eye, two years later, Da Kui was less than twenty years old but had grown eight feet tall, powerful and powerful, and his body was covered with dozens of sandbags. Even so, Da Kui runs dozens of miles as usual every day, such as walking like flying in the mountains, although it is bumpy and difficult.

On this day, the senior brother came to call him again: "Little junior brother, the master called you." Da Kui didn't dare to slack off, came to the master's room and bowed down and said, "Master, the disciple is here." ”

The Master of Wisdom said, "Come in," Da Kui pushed the door in.

The Venerable Master smiled and said, "Sit down," Da Kui respectfully walked over and sat down cross-legged.

The Spiritual Master said, "The sand in your sandbag can be replaced." ”

Da Kui asked puzzledly: "Change?"

The Venerable Master Lingzhi said, "I asked your third senior brother to go down the mountain to find a blacksmith and buy 300 catties of iron sand, and you will replace the sand in the two sandbags on your body with iron sand every month in the future, and you will still practice the old method." ”

Da Kui replied respectfully: "It's the master." ”

The Master then asked, "How are you doing with your locust stones?"

Da Kui said: "The left hand is not as good as the right hand, if you hit the leaves within fifty steps, there is no waste." If you say that you can't hit a bird, you can't hit it. ”

The Spiritual Master said: "Birds are also living beings, and they should not be harmed in vain. You can practice turning around and throwing stones, and if you can hit the bird in a hurry, you won't be far away! ”

Da Kui replied respectfully: "The apprentice respectfully obeys the master's orders. Then the Master Lingzhi asked Da Kui a few more ordinary things, and Da Kui answered them one by one.

The Master of Wisdom stroked his hair and smiled, "Now that you are carrying more than 100 catties of sand and soil, you are accustomed to running around every day, which shows that this method is very suitable for you. After that, he smiled and said, "Okay, you go." Da Kui got up and saluted the master, and went out of the master's house to find the second senior brother, today the second senior brother is going down the mountain, Da Kui feels depressed on the mountain, just follow out to go around.

On the second day, Da Kui had changed two bags of iron sand, and there was no discomfort in his gestures. As always, run down the mountain. Run along the main road. Now Da Kui is not as good as at the beginning, and it is no obstacle to run fifty miles according to the method of the master's spit.
