Volume 1 The first foray into the rivers and lakes Chapter 8 Liuhe Sword Technique
A sumptuous all-deer feast is the dinner of the four of Yaoshan today.
Although in Xu Zhaonan's opinion, Gu Sihai used the peerless swordsmanship that made him blush on cutting venison, which was a bit of a big surprise, but the whole deer banquet cooked by Bai Chujian was so delicious that he couldn't stop the chopsticks in his hand.
In order to celebrate Xu Zhaonan's completion of learning from Grandma Sun, Bai Chusaw that he was allowed to drink an extra pot of Baihua Brew tonight, which made him extremely happy.
"Zhao Nan, you come to my room after dinner. ”
After dinner, Bai Chujian gently put down the dishes and chopsticks, said to Xu Zhaonan lightly, and went back to the house.
"Huh?"
Xu Zhaonan was a little confused, in the past two years, Gu Sihai's thatched hut, he has visited, and there are a lot of divine blades in it, I really don't know where he got it, I heard that each of them has a well-known name on the list of divine weapons in the rivers and lakes.
And Grandma Sun's thatched hut, he had also visited, and he was deeply impressed, it was full of snakes, insects, poisonous ants, and countless highly poisonous plants and trees, which shocked him even more than Gu Sihai's treasured divine weapons.
However, the senior sister's thatched hut is a forbidden place for him, and in the past two years, Grandma Sun has never allowed him to step into a step.
Therefore, suddenly hearing what the senior sister said, Xu Zhaonan's brain couldn't react for a while.
"Ouch. ”
Xu Zhaonan let out a miserable scream, covered his head with his hand, and exclaimed, "Uncle Gu, why are you beating me." ”
It turned out that when Xu Zhaonan lost his mind, he was hit the head by Gu Sihai with chopsticks, only to hear him say: "What are you kid doing in a daze, what are you thinking?"
"I'm not thinking about anything. ”
Xu Zhaonan was a little aggrieved.
Gu Sihai ignored it, his eyes widened and he said viciously: "I still don't know that you kid? I warn you, if you dare to mess with any crooked thoughts, beware of me gelding you!"
"My God, how many years ago was that, Uncle Gu, I really didn't look at that Miss Guan at that time. ”
Xu Zhaonan hugged his head and wailed.
Back then, he just glanced curiously at the official road, and after two years, he couldn't remember what the people he met looked like, but Gu Sihai always mentioned this matter and made fun of him.
"Ahem......"
Granny Sun coughed lightly, put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked at the two people who were messing around in front of her, shook her head a little helplessly, and said, "Okay, don't mess around." ”
After stopping the two, Granny Sun squinted her eyes and looked Xu Zhaonan up and down, nodded slightly: "The physique is barely qualified, in the past two years, you have been allowed to practice the "Condensing Mind Decision" every night, and now that the eight veins of the Qi Jing have been opened, and the poison technique of the old body has been learned, it is naturally time to practice the master's sword technique." ”
When Xu Zhaonan heard this, he didn't care about the pain on the top of his head, so he excitedly grabbed Granny Sun's sleeve and asked in surprise: "Mother-in-law is saying that I can practice kendo now?
Granny Sun smiled and stretched out her other hand, patted it lightly on Xu Zhaonan's hand that was tightly grasping her sleeve, and said, "Yes, yes, let's go." ”
Xu Zhaonan stood up excitedly, and didn't bother to clean up the dishes, so he hurriedly saluted the two of them and strode out.
Looking at Xu Zhaonan's back, Gu Sihai was silent for a moment, frowned and stopped talking to Granny Sun: "Mother-in-law, you say...... The young master is so kind to this kid......"
"Huh. ”
Grandma Sun still smiled kindly, and said: "The young master treats him as his own brother, in this world, the young master is left with our relatives, naturally he is good to him in every way, so sister and brother affection, what's wrong?"
"Mother-in-law......"
Gu Sihai stood up, took two steps back and forth uneasily, and said anxiously, "You understand what I mean." ”
"So what?"
Granny Sun cleaned up the dishes and continued: "You and I can't control the affairs of the young master, as long as he is good to the young master, it will be fine." ”
Gu Sihai thought in his heart that there were only four people on the top of Yao Mountain, the young master was so gorgeous, and this kid was a young man's heart, and it was inevitable that he would fall in love for a long time. Even if this kid is so good to the young master now, both of them are still young now, and they will eventually go down the mountain in the future.
When you see more prosperity in the world, if this kid is blinded and has the expectations of the young master, what should I do.
Xu Zhaonan, who was full of joy, didn't know Gu Sihai's worries at the moment, and now he was standing respectfully in front of Bai Chujian's thatched hut, knocking on the door and saying, "Senior sister, I'm here." ”
I saw that the wooden door of the thatched hut slowly opened from the inside, and an oil lamp was lit on the wooden table in the thatched hut, which reflected the white first sight at the door as if there was a light smoke cage, not like a mortal person in the dust.
Bai Chujian smiled faintly and said, "Here, let's enter the house." ”
After that, he turned around and entered the house, Xu Zhaonan behind him slowly closed the door, turned around, suppressed the joy in his heart, and asked respectfully: "Senior sister, my mother-in-law said that my senior sister will teach me to practice swords today, right?"
"Not bad. ”
Bai Chujian nodded slowly and said, "In the past, my mother-in-law didn't allow you to enter my house, because I was afraid that you would be weak and forcibly cultivate the sword technique. Today, my mother-in-law said that you have learned her poison arts, and the eight veins of the Qi Jing have been passed, and it is time to practice swords. ”
Hearing this, Xu Zhaonan looked around and found that there were many bookshelves in his sister's thatched house, each of which was neatly stacked with books, and the smell of books in the room came to his face, and he asked, "Senior sister, what kind of books are these?"
Bai Chujian followed his gaze and glanced at the room and said, "It's all sword tricks." ”
"So much?"
Xu Zhaonan was surprised: "Is it all created by the master?"
Bai Chujian shook his head and said: "No, these are all sword tricks created by those who have excellent swordsmanship over the years, and they have been collected by my father one by one. ”
Xu Zhaonan muttered: "It's so powerful, senior sister, do you read these books every day?"
Bai Chujian nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
Xu Zhaonan was puzzled: "Then which of these sword techniques is more powerful than those created by the master?"
"Each has its own merits. ”
Bai Chujian didn't boast for his father, and he didn't need to boast.
Xu Zhaonan then asked, "Isn't it just by learning the sword technique created by the master to reach the master of the grandmaster?
"That's my father's kendo, not mine. ”
Bai Chujian shook his head and said quietly: "My father wants me to gather the strengths of all families and understand my own swordsmanship. ”
Xu Zhaonan seemed to have an understanding, but he still didn't understand.
Bai Chu saw that the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and asked patiently: "These sword tricks have traces to follow after all, if someone attacks you with a sword, there is no move to follow, what should you do?"
Xu Zhaonan thought for a while and said: "There is no move to follow, as long as there is a move, you can find a way to break the move, but if there is no move, then how to break it." ”
"yes. Since there is no trick to follow, there is no way to break the move. ”
Bai Chuxue taught seriously: "A person who has never practiced martial arts, if he swings a sword and stabs at you, even if you know the sword tricks of the world, you can't find this sword move, at this time you have no tricks to follow, you can't break the move, but you can easily defeat him with cultivation." But if that person's cultivation is higher than you, what should you do?"
Xu Zhaonan lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Bai Chuxue continued: "Father said that most of the world's kendo is divided into three realms, there is a sword in one hand, and there is no sword in the heart; second, there is a sword in the hand, and there is a sword in the heart; third, there is no sword in the hand, and there is a sword in the heart. ”
Xu Zhaonan thought of Gu Sihai and said: "Senior sister, Uncle Gu is the third realm, he has no sword in his hand, but he has a sword in his heart, right? I saw that Uncle Gu could release sword qi just by relying on the whip and fingers in his hand, killing people invisibly. ”
Bai Chuxue nodded and said, "Yes, when Uncle Gu reaches the third realm, he will enter the ranks of first-class masters." ”
"The third realm is already a first-class master, what about the great grandmaster, what realm did the master reach back then?"
Xu Zhaonan was puzzled.
"The three realms are just the sword path of most people in the world, and the sword path of the great master is that there is no sword in his hand, and there is no sword in his heart. Bai Chuxue explained.
Xu Zhaonan's eyes shone with a little starlight, and his face showed a look of yearning, fantasizing that if he could become such a strong person one day, he would have no regrets in this life.
Bai Chujian looked at Xu Zhaonan, who was in a fantasy, smiled faintly, and continued: "These are still too far away for you now, you just need to cultivate the sword created by your father first." ”
Xu Zhaonan nodded, thinking in his heart, yes, he hasn't even started to practice swordsmanship, and he hasn't reached the realm of having a sword in his hand.
"Not here. ”
"Huh?" Xu Zhaonan was startled, stopped, and said, "Not here?"
Bai Chujian raised his hand, tapped his temples lightly, and said, "Here." ”
Xu Zhaonan was a little at a loss and said, "Then, how can I learn?"
Bai Chujian smiled and said softly: "I said, you listen." ”
"Okay. ”
Looking at Senior Sister's serious expression, Xu Zhaonan bit his lip, nodded, and said, "Then it's troublesome Senior Sister." ”
Immediately, Bai Chujian opened his mouth lightly, and slowly recited the essence of the sword technique, Xu Zhaonanduan sat aside and memorized carefully, and when he encountered something he didn't understand, he opened his mouth to ask, and Bai Chujian answered them one by one.
The oil lamp swayed, stretching the figures of the two on the window, and before they knew it, it was already sunset and the moon was in the sky, the sky was full of stars dotted in the night sky, and the sound of wolves howling in the forest came from the forest.
Xu Zhaonan looked at the sky outside the house as if he had just woken up from a dream, and sighed: "It's already dark, and time flies so fast." ”
Looking at the junior brother in front of him, Bai Chujian showed a gratifying smile on his face, and said: "It's not early, you go back to rest first, remember to practice diligently in the future, if there is anything wrong, just tell me to listen." ”
Xu Zhaonan looked at his senior sister's slightly tired face, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, he was immersed in the comprehension of the sword technique for a while, but he didn't expect to disturb his senior sister for so long, and his immature face was gradually fading and was red by the oil lamp.
Xu Zhaonan immediately stood up and said to Bai Chujian: "Senior sister, I'll go boil water for senior sister first, and senior sister should wash and rest early." ”
Bai Chujian stood up, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'll do it myself......"
Before he finished speaking, he was held down by Xu Zhaonan on the shoulder, helped him to sit on the chair, and only heard Xu Zhaonan say: "I have been tired all night today, this little thing, how dare you let my senior sister do it, senior sister, you sit first, I will go back." ”
Without waiting for the senior sister to say anything, she immediately opened the door and ran out of the house, and suddenly, Xu Zhaonan stopped, turned his head and asked, "Senior sister, the sword technique created by this master should always have a name, right?"
"Liuhe. ”
"Liuhe Sword Duel! What a domineering name...... Hahaha......"
Xu Zhaonan laughed and ran to the kitchen to light a fire and boil water.
Bai Chujian sat quietly on the chair, and the corners of his mouth rose a little more.
