Volume 1 Youth Xing, the Lower Reaches of the World Chapter 6 What to do if you don't cultivate martial arts
Chapter 6 If you don't cultivate martial arts, what to repair
"Oh, why do you want to thank me?" said Wu Ming with a smile.
"There are three reasons, first, thank you to the master for being able to accept me for getting started and pass on my martial arts, I should thank you here, and second, I know that the reason why my second uncle was able to inquire about the news of the Taoist chief was also intentional by the Taoist chief, otherwise how could the second uncle inquire about the news of the Taoist so smoothly. Thirdly, I would like to thank the master for being able to reassure my parents, because the master has such a great ability to bend down and swear to make my father feel at ease, and I don't know what to do in return. Shi Yi said seriously.
Wu Ming is now extremely satisfied with this apprentice, not only smart, but also able to see the subtleties and draw inferences.
"Shi Yi, I am very happy for the teacher, you can see so much, which makes the teacher very surprised. Seriously, I was worried that you were quite young and not good enough, but now it seems that you are too worried about the teacher, although you are young, you are mature and decisive, which makes the teacher very satisfied. But the teacher still tells you that you still have to abandon kindness at some times, do you understand?" Wu Ming asked rhetorically.
"I understand, master, although Mr. taught us to be saints and benevolent, but when we embark on the path of martial arts, sometimes we can't be merciful. Shi Yi said seriously.
After Wu Ming heard this, he nodded.
"Master, I want to ask something?" Shi Yi asked a little awkwardly.
"Oh, tell me, what's the matter?" Wu Ming said with interest when he rarely saw Shi Yi also twisting.
"Master, that's the case, the head of our school all said that I was born with a weak physique, and I was not a martial arts training material, why did you still accept me as an apprentice?" Shi Yi asked curiously.
"Shi Yi, practicing martial arts is a hard thing, your head just said that you are weak, but can a weak physique limit the final height of a person's martial arts, no one knows the answer, this is originally based on personal acquired efforts, how many people rely on acquired efforts, not by congenital conditions to achieve the goal, about this, you don't have to be arrogant, just learn hard every day. Wu Ming Zhengse said.
"I understand, master, I will study hard. After hearing the master's words, Shi Yi was obviously in a much better mood.
"Besides......" Wu Ming said again at this time.
"And what?"
"Besides, who said that I only taught you martial arts?" Wu Ming suddenly said something that didn't look for the edge.
Now, Shi Yi is a little confused, yes, the master wanted to accept himself as an apprentice at the beginning, but he didn't say what he wanted to teach me in the end, the master is Taoist. What I teach must be Taoist martial arts, but apart from martial arts, what else does the master want to teach me? I couldn't think of the answer, so I asked, "Master, what do you do if you don't practice martial arts?"
......
"You'll find out later. Wu Ming said with a smile.
Wu Ming didn't answer Shi Yi's question clearly, but looked at the sky outside, which was completely dark, and looked deeply, just like that......
In the middle of the night in such a comfortable place, Shi Yi's stomach rang out of place, he ate early at noon, and now he was hungry and dizzy early in the morning, but he was too embarrassed to disturb the master, so he could only endure it all the time, but his stomach obviously didn't listen to Shi Yi's command, and this sound pulled Daoist Wu Ming out of his contemplation.
"Shi Yi, I forgot to prepare food for you, do you have prepared it yourself?" Wu Ming asked embarrassedly, it is true that he does not usually eat much, so he has never brought dry food with him, although he accepted Shi Yi as an apprentice, but obviously has not changed from the original habit.
"Master, when I went out, my mother prepared a lot of dry food for me, do you want to eat it?" he said as he prepared to take out the dry food that had already been prepared from the baggage. Dry food is not a special thing, that is, Shi Yi's mother used coarse grains and eggs to bak a lot of flatbread for Shi Yi, and the family is usually reluctant to eat eggs, Shi Yi's mother was afraid that Shi Yi would suffer outside, so she put all the eggs in one go.
"No need, you can eat, don't be hungry for the teacher." As soon as Daoist Wu Ming finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong, so he continued, "Maybe I haven't eaten farmhouse food for a long time, so it's good for me to taste it." ”
After Wu Ming finished speaking, Shi Yi tore half of it and handed it to Wu Ming, leaving the remaining half for himself, just like that, the master and apprentice talked and laughed and ate some hard flatbread, but they didn't care at all......
......
Cangzhou is the largest state capital in the west of Zhuoshan County, which is a few points larger than Zhuoshan County, so there is no county guard here, and it still follows the old system of the previous dynasty and establishes a state pastor.
But it was said that two people came out of the city gate of Cangzhou Bishan Town on this day, one big and one small, dressed quite strangely, and the guard at the city gate Bao San wanted to come forward to ask, but after seeing the person walking in front, he saw that he was just a teenager following him, so he no longer cared about these two people.
These two people, walking in front of a Taoist priest, a shabby Taoist robe with a few patches on it, the color is not the same, it is very different. There is a gourd hanging from his waist, and from time to time he brings it to his mouth and drinks a few sips. The young man who followed behind was also strange, you want to say that he was a boy of a Taoist priest, but he didn't have braids, and his hair was just the same as ordinary people. The boy looked to be about ten years old, with a slightly handsome face, but he always had an expression of not being surprised, and there were vicissitudes that children of this age did not have. The clothes are just the clothes of ordinary people, they don't wear Taoist robes, but they follow closely behind the Taoist priest, and from time to time they say a few words to the Taoist priest, such a big and small combination is enough for pedestrians on the road to can't help but take a few more looks, but that's all, I guess that these two are a pair of combination liars.
But it was said that these two people were Wu Ming Dao Chang and Shi Yi, since they left Yunshan Town for more than two months, the master and apprentice were in a hurry, and Wu Ming taught Shi Yi a set of Tai Chi boxing and a set of Taoist exercises to practice internal strength, which were used to practice internal strength. In this way, Shiyi will practice Tai Chi in the early morning, and practice internal strength in the evening, although it is a little hard at the beginning, but Shiyi's enthusiasm for cultivation is getting higher and higher day by day. Coupled with Wu Ming's guidance from time to time, sometimes the jerky and obscure places were mastered without much time. In this way, after two months, there is finally a prototype, and Wu Ming no longer has to teach repeatedly.
In other words, the cultivation of internal skills is still progressing very fast, but this external martial arts boxing method can be said to be right, it is really not that material, the whole set of Taijiquan took nearly a month to remember all the boxing techniques, as for the rest is to practice a lot and practice.
In this way, Shi Yi used to practice in the morning and evening, and the master and apprentice used the daytime to hurry, in two months, Shi Yi's mother had already eaten up the dry food prepared for Shi Yi, fortunately, don't look at Wu Mingdao's clothes are a little unbearable, but he can take out silver taels every time, Wu Ming is really good to Shi Yi's apprentice, Wu Ming thought that Shi Yi was a critical moment in physical development at this moment, and he was not too stingy on the road. The master and apprentice will always stop to eat a delicious meal, sometimes in the farm, sometimes in the restaurant, and sometimes simply start a fire in the wild, and in the morning, they also followed Guan Hu to catch hares and pheasants, which will be useful, and the master and apprentice take advantage of this opportunity to eat some game.
Therefore, in the past two months, Shi Yi's body has grown rapidly. Compared with two months ago, he is obviously taller, his physique is also stronger, coupled with both internal and external skills, his breath is stable, his spirit is more restrained, and his foot strength has also made great progress compared to two months ago.
Besides, Shi Yi himself can clearly feel the great changes in the past two months, after a set of punches two months ago, his body was sore, and now after a set of punches, he is just sweating. Not only is the body lighter and stronger, but even the spirit of the whole person is much better than before.
Due to the internal and external cultivation, plus the external cultivation is still Taijiquan, so Shi Yi is just like the master said, there will be no large muscles, but the body is indeed a lot stronger, but there will not be much change in body shape. Shi Yi also likes this kind of exercise, although he has wanted to become a generation of heroes since he was a child, but no one wants to become that kind of hero.
Wu Ming is also very satisfied with this apprentice, although he is a little less talented, but in terms of heart and perseverance, he is much stronger than his peers, and sometimes Wu Ming himself doubts that Shi Yi is really just a ten-year-old boy?
As for Shi Yi's master, he has great respect for himself, not only in martial arts, but also because the master cares for him from that heart, which he has never felt except for his parents.
Once, Shi Yi asked the master why he had to take him as an apprentice, and there were many teenagers with higher talents than him why they didn't choose him. But Wu Ming not only didn't get angry, but replied with a smile, first of all, the original word is a fate, he felt that it was related to him from the first time he saw the name Shi Yi, and the next two encounters were in line with his ideas. In Wu Ming's words, Shi Yi is not a too kind, indecisive character, he thinks that Shi Yi is not a master who is easy to suffer, nor is he ruthless, on the contrary, Shi Yi still has compassion in his heart, so Wu Ming thinks that Shi Yi's heart is very much in line with his standards, or even better. Coupled with the decisiveness of apprenticeship and filial piety to relatives, Wu Ming felt that no matter where he was in the future, he would not suffer because of his immaturity.
Wu Ming told Shi Yi that there are too many talented and intelligent people who have died due to mental reasons, on the contrary, they are not the best in all aspects, but are more likely to succeed.
