Chapter 45: Sword Practice
Early the next morning, Fang Zhan had breakfast, carried a sword, a bow, a quiver, and a bag full of daily necessities and dry food, and went straight to the old house in the soft morning light.
At the beginning of this day, Fang Zhan officially practiced martial arts.
Since then, in the morning light, in the twilight, under the moonlight, in the drizzle and breeze, near the Bantian Cliff, there is one more young man practicing the sword and bow.
The blood bubbles on the young man's originally tender hands broke and receded layer by layer, gradually becoming rough, full of calluses, and gradually becoming like iron!
The handsome and fair face gradually became dark and glowed with black light.
Originally, I could only eat one steamed bun for one meal, but I became four later, and I still felt that it was lacking.
Little by little, from the original clumsy sword posture, it became chic and elegant.
The sword shines all over the cliff.
Little by little, from pulling the bow, it became possible to shoot through a strong bamboo, two, three, and five arrows with one arrow.
Little by little, from climbing the cliff from nowhere, he became like a leopard on the mountain, and when he reached the top of the cliff, his face was not red and he was not panting.
Years later, every time he thinks back to today's scene, Fang Zhan will feel that this is the real beginning of his life.
The sunshine of the day, very good!
When Fang Zhan really began to enter cultivation, it was also the beginning of the real mutual polishing and mutual understanding between him and Ya'er.
Ya'er has seen what the real Fang Zhan is.
She originally thought that Fang Zhan was just a weak scholar, although he read well, it was related to his memory and super clear mind after all. After all, it has something to do with his preference for reading.
But when she formulated a series of almost devilish cultivation methods for Fang Zhan, she found that she was wrong!
Her fault was that she had always subjectively believed that Fang Zhan would probably not be able to withstand this series of painful cultivation.
But when she saw that Fang Zhan could still practice his sword until late at night when his hands were full of blood blisters.
When she saw that Fang Zhan could climb up without any experience in rock climbing, he could still climb up without fear of danger.
When she saw that Fang Zhan couldn't pull the bow, he could keep pulling it every day until he was tired and fainted.
All of this is in the eyes of Ya'er.
Since then, she knows that Fang Zhan is Fang Zhan, Fang Zhan can win the first place in reading, and then he can also dominate the world in martial arts.
Ya'er is very convinced, very convinced.
Ya'er has a wealth of experience, and she has always been above the top, all over the world, there have not been many people who have really been put in her eyes, maybe there are only a few, but now, there is really one more square exhibition.
Not because of the level of martial arts cultivation, but because of Fang Zhan's ability to resist blows!
Fang Zhan's opinion on Ya'er also gradually became clearer.
He was shocked by the breadth of Ya'er's knowledge and the miscellaneous swordsmanship he knew.
I was amazed that a small sixteen-year-old girl could formulate such a huge and complex cultivation system.
(Fang Zhan subjectively thought that Ya'er was still at the age when she was banned from the moat) So, Fang Zhan knew that he was right to give himself to Ya'er. Very right.
Of course, he also felt the change in Ya'er's attitude towards him, in what Ya'er said to Fang Zhan, that is, in fact, I have been very worried, you will not be able to bear the cultivation methods I have formulated for you, but I really underestimated you, you have never been a weak scholar!
As a result, Fang Zhan's hands began to become rougher, and his skin began to become darker.
On the afternoon of the first day he started practicing, Master Xun came over.
He brought a large bag of books.
It is all about the method of spitting, swordsmanship, palming, fisting, and fingering.
When she saw the books, she was completely stunned.
Because there are many of them that she used to want to learn but couldn't find the classics at all.
Fang Zhan was dismissive of this, those books were all abandoned by him before.
Now that Master Xun sent it with a flattering face, it made Fang Zhan a little embarrassed.
So, he will discuss with Ya'er what to learn first, what to learn later, and what to give up.
Ya'er had always known that Fang Zhan could read books quickly, but now she knew that Fang Zhan learned martial arts faster.
The classics brought by Master Xun, Fang Zhan can cultivate several books at the same time, and the progress is very fast.
Sanniang came on the second day of Fang Zhan's martial arts cultivation, and he brought all kinds of food that Fang Zhan loved to eat. And, after that, she would come once a day.
Therefore, Fang Zhan didn't have to worry about eating at all.
Shang Ji came on the third day, and he sent Fang Zhan a full ten barrels of arrows.
He said, "Shoot as many arrows as you want!"
Li Langzhong came on the fourth day, and he brought a lot of medicine to reduce swelling and stop bleeding.
Tell Fang Zhan that if you need a big tonic, bring it next time.
Li Xuanyi and Shang Ke arrived on the fifth day, and when the two of them saw Fang Zhan, they couldn't believe their eyes.
In their eyes, Fang Zhan, who was wearing a scholar's robe, with a white face and delicate palms, was no longer there.
Li Xuanyi even grabbed Fang Zhan's hand, and his eyes were red. Shang Ke was also in a bad mood. But when Fang Zhan told him that he would go to Beijing with him to participate in the martial arts test, Shang Ke was excited.
Only Fang Ping has never come!
And so the days went by.
Fang Zhan sometimes hoped that his father would come to see it, but after half a month, Fang Ping never came.
One day half a month later, Fang Ping came.
He saw that his son had completely changed after half a month of polishing. He moved Fang Zhan's hands away, and saw that the old and new were not in place, and the blood blisters that broke and rose gradually turned into calluses, and only asked one sentence: "Do you really want to do this?"
Fang Zhan smiled: "That's good!"
Fang Ping hesitated for a moment and said, "The capital is really here!"
Fang Zhan was taken aback: "What did you say?"
Fang Ping said: "They came to ask you to go back, and I went back according to your words." ”
Fang Zhan thought for a moment and said, "Did you reveal any other information?"
Fang Ping shook his head: "No, I just said that the emperor came to invite you back." Know you're not at home and travel far away. I told them that you would go directly to the capital from somewhere else, and that you would arrive before the martial arts test. They hesitated for a long time and went back."
Fang Zhan thought for a while, and said to Ya'er in his heart: "As you expected! everything is under your control......! It's amazing!"
Ya'er didn't speak.
Fang Ping said again: "In the past few days, the son of the Zhou family in the town, Miss Lin, the young master of the Ma family, and a little Taoist priest with a big head often come. They would help me clean the yard, they would sit in the yard and play together, and they would bring a lot of good food from home to eat with me. It's a bit of a mess, but I'm not annoyed at all. The son of the Zhou family mentioned it and said that you are invited to participate in the festival garden on August 15 next year. I didn't say yes and I didn't object. You decide for yourself! Say that you also invited Shang Ke and Xuanyi. The fashion Ji is the Zhou Mansion Nursing Hospital, and it will also be there. ”
Fang Zhan raised his head and let out a long breath. He said, "When they come again, you will agree." I'll go. ”
Fang Ping stayed for a while and then went back.
Fang Zhan looked at his back, only to feel that his father's waist was getting more and more bent.
In the blink of an eye, the autumn wind is coming, and the frost is coming.
Fang Zhan has been cultivating martial arts for half a year.
On this day, Fang Zhan floated down from the top of the half-sky cliff, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I think you can take the second step."
Fang Zhan said: "How to proceed?"
Ya'er said: "Break the formation." ”
Fang Zhan said, "Are you going to start arranging for me?"
Ya'er said: "This formation, before you enter Beijing, if you can break through the three portals and enter Beijing to test martial arts, there is absolutely no problem!"
Fang Zhan thought for a moment: "What kind of array is that?"
Ya'er said: "Nineteen Star Luo Bamboo Arrays. In a moment, I will enter your center and begin to set up. ”
Ya'er occupied Fang Zhan's brain center, came to the bamboo forest outside the door of the old house, and kept cutting bamboo inside.
She worked on it for five days.
During these five days, the buds will completely occupy Fang Zhan's brain center during the day and exit at night.
Five days later, in the evening, Fang Zhan opened his eyes and saw that the originally dense and chaotic bamboo forest in front of him had become a boxy.
Ya'er said: "This formation, there are four portals in the southeast, northwest and northwest, each portal enters, and the formation inside is greatly changed. Therefore, what seems to be one array is actually four arrays. You just need to go through all these four portals, and the way of the sword will be successful!"
Fang Zhan said: "The array you laid proves that you have also broken it, right?"
Ya'er said: "It took me nine months to completely break through this formation. Right now, you still have a year to go, and on the basis of only half a year of martial arts, if you can break through the two portals, it will be very remarkable! I believe that except for Shang Ke, there should be no one who is your opponent. ”
Fang Zhan thought for a while: "Ya'er, what kind of strength does Shang Ke have?"
Ya'er said: "I believe that if Shang Ke goes to participate in the martial arts test, no one in the world will have a chance!"
Fang Zhan was surprised: "Shang Ke is so powerful?"
Ya'er said: "There is an age limit for Gao Tang's martial arts test, and at this age, I really can't think of anyone else who can compete with him or even get close! Li Xuanyi can, but women can't participate in the martial arts test." ”
Fang Zhan said again: "By the way, last time I asked you, what would be the result if you compared Shang Ke with Xuanyi, but then it was diverged, you are the same age as them, let's talk about it, what is the comparison between you and them?"
Ya'er was silent for a while and said, "It's hard to say. The two of them are also hiding their strength, and I can't estimate how much they are hiding. ”
Fang Zhan thought for a while: "Hey, these two, I really haven't seen it." ”
Shang Ke didn't know that from now on, Fang Zhan regarded him as his goal.
