At this time, the old man who had already lost his cultivation was no longer as tired as when he had just passed on his skills to Ye Xian.

However, the old man has lost his internal strength cultivation, although he is no longer the appearance of the fairy wind dao bone as before, and he is much older than before, but he is also full of red light, and he looks extremely complacent.

"Old Du seniors. ”

Ye Xian got up and said hello.

Du Gongfu smiled and nodded. Then he sat opposite Ye Xian.

"A few days ago, I heard from the dog that Mr. Xiao has been diligent in his cultivation in recent days, and he lives in seclusion all day long, why are you interested in coming to this lotus pond today?"

"It's not much diligence, but I suddenly got the internal strength of my predecessors for twenty years, and I have to adapt to it for a while. ”

Ye Xian explained.

"But today I was a little upset, so I came to the lotus pond to enjoy the scenery just to calm my heart. ”

The old man nodded.

"It's this reason, practicing martial arts itself is not only practicing martial arts, practicing itself is cultivating the mind, and if the mind is not quiet, it is easy to go mad. ”

Ye Xian also nodded, agreeing with Du's words.

"The old-timers are still adapting now?"

It seemed that his mind couldn't calm down, so Ye Xian planned to find a topic so that he didn't think about cultivation.

The old man turned his head to look at the pond, which had been viewed for nearly twenty years, and nodded.

"Actually, I'm not suitable for mixing the rivers and lakes, I just wanted to be a chivalrous hero, if I hadn't met your master, maybe I would have left this river and lake when I was not good, when I was young, I dreamed of fighting the sword to go to the end of the world and being a hero, and now that I am old, I have such a large industry, and I am content, and the things on the rivers and lakes are still not suitable for me, although I have no internal strength, but I have all my hands and feet, and I can't starve to death, and people don't have to be eaten to death by the rivers and lakes if they don't mix in the rivers and lakes。 ”

Du Gongfu grinned.

Ye Xian nodded, and suddenly remembered his master, Ye Ting, the former black knife owner who always liked to use a wheelchair whenever he traveled because of his physical discomfort in recent years.

"My master, he should be very envious of you. ”

Du Gongfu was a little happy in his heart, but he didn't take it seriously.

"Old man, I am not suitable for the rivers and lakes, I have no ambition and no wrists, I just want to take care of my own one-third of an acre, so I can only be regarded as a hard support in the rivers and lakes, and the legendary figure of the black knife master is naturally different, and we can't compare. ”

Ye Xian shook his head.

"In the same way, my master said that except for my master mother and Gao Zhenhui, none of the rivers and lakes in this country are really suitable for this river and lake, because both of them are the kind of people who can make the rivers and lakes suitable for the two of them. ”

Du Gongfu did not continue to say, Master Ye Xian's first-person dispute with Emperor Wu Gao Zhenhui ten years ago, there are not a few people who know about it in the rivers and lakes.

But these two men and women who occupy the first and second place in the world, there are very few people who really understand them.

Du Gongfu didn't understand either, so he didn't know what to say.

After a long time, Du Gongfu spoke:

"If there is any difficulty in the cultivation of Mr. Xiao, you might as well say it, even if my old man can't give you any good advice, at least say it and feel more comfortable in your heart, right?"

Ye Xian thought about it, what the old man said was indeed reasonable, and the living can't be taught to suffocate to death, right?

"Actually, it's nothing, in the final analysis, it's that my roots are shallow, my understanding is low, and I can't ask for immortality if I want to raise a dragon, so I can't ask for it, so I give up the way and seek skill, and I am afraid to winc, thinking about it repeatedly, but after all, it is difficult to choose between fast and Chinese, which makes me upset. ”

Ye Xian said truthfully.

Du Gongfu grinned.

"Mr. Xiao's understanding is not low, if it weren't for physical reasons, Mr. Xiao can now not say that it is a dragon that can be raised, but I can understand the feeling that Mr. Xiao said, it is probably like a stunned young man who met two fairies who are equally excellent and have the same feeling but do not have such a deep feeling, it just so happens that both fairies like you, you have no choice, right?"

Ye Xian nodded.

"That's about it. ”

The old man smiled again.

"What's the choice, if it's an old man and I, just want both, or simply don't want both, the former, men, three wives and four concubines are always normal, the latter, since you can't choose between the two, it means that neither of them is necessarily the most suitable one for you, what does Mr. Xiao think?"

Ye Xian frowned, the reason that the old man said was very simple, but martial arts should be more cautious than life events.

"It's impossible to choose both, after all, just like the old man you said, these two women, now they are incompatible, if I want to seek the speed of the knife, I must give up the cumbersome moves, so I can only choose one of the two, as for not choosing, I really don't have a third way to choose." ”

Du Gongfu seemed to have expected Ye Xian to say this.

"Little sir, I ask you to see something. ”

Du Gongfu pointed to the lotus pond in front of the two of them.

Ye Xian raised his eyes and didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the old man's gourd.

"When I first established the Lotus Breath Villa, in order to find some contact with the name of this villa, it is also for a good omen, so I planted fifteen lotus flowers in this pond with my own hands, and at that time, I looked at the poor few lotus seedlings in the big pond, like a few chopsticks sparsely stuck in the pond, I felt really ridiculous, but day after day, year after year, until one day I found more and more lotus, so much so that one day I need to expand the pond to fit, so many that one day, to this day, I have more than 10,000 lotus flowers in this pond, which I never thought when I planted flowersWhat do you think is the reason for this, little sir?"

Ye Xian thought for a moment.

"The lotus flower is rooted in the mud, and the roots are born in the mud but do not grow, so it cannot be seen on the outside, but the roots in the silt have long been ready to grow, so when it comes to the season of germination and flowering, many lotus plants will emerge at once, and the old-timers naturally cannot see it in the appearance. ”

The old man slapped his head.

"That's the reason!"

The old man looked at Ye Xian quietly.

Ye Xian suddenly realized.

Lotus is such a reason, so why not practice knives?

Lotus still knows the truth of gathering momentum first and then preparing for it, why can't his own knife?

Ye Xian has always been a two-pronged approach, although he has never practiced how to be clever in swordsmanship, but he has always pursued fast, and he is practicing the moves of hundreds of schools, wanting to learn from each other's strengths, but in the end, he found that the two could not be integrated.

However, Du's words made Ye Xianmao pause.

The world only knows that there are two kinds of knife techniques, fast and Chinese, but I, Ye Xian, want to find a knife that only belongs to me Ye Xian between the two-raising knife.

"With a few years of raising a shocking knife, the knife will shock the people of the world, this is my knife, my raising knife. ”

Du Gongfu stretched out his thumb.

"Mr. Xiao's knife sounds domineering!"
