Chapter 30: The Path of the Reincarnation Warrior
"Goodbye, little brother!, I will always contact you in the future!" "Red Leaf Mountain Bus Station, Bai Zhantang sent off the item. After coming out of the business hall of the main god terminal, Xiang Ji immediately said goodbye to Lao Bai, and at this moment he was already like an arrow._w
"Okay, goodbye Bai Dao!" Xiang Ji sat in the car and waved goodbye.
Hongji Mountain is the first station of this line, and there are very few people on the train, so Xiang Ji chose a seat in the last row and sat down, leaning his back on the backrest.
The car's engine starts, the body shook, and the bus slowly drove out of the station. Xiang Ji turned his head to look behind through the rear window, and the bus stop that was slowly moving away, waving his hand at Lao Bai, who was gradually disappearing, the red leaf mountain at the end of the road, and the sunset behind the mountain that was about to sink.
He kept staring until the mountain that had changed his fate grew shorter and shorter in sight, and Xiang Ji turned his head back and leaned back in his chair tiredly.
The car went all the way, and Xiang Ji's thoughts were also flying all the way, flying farther and farther as the car gradually accelerated.
He has always liked to travel by car, especially by train and bus.
Xiang Ji has always felt that it is a particularly romantic thing to take the bus to stop and go, and take the train to look at the scenery outside the window. Sitting in the car, just sitting lazily, watching the people in the car go up and down, coming and going, watching the scenery outside the window change all the way, the people and things that are gradually approaching, and the mountains and rivers and roads and bridges that are gradually moving away.
Some people compare life to a one-way train, Xiang Ji agrees with this, isn't everyone like this? Go all the way, until one moment suddenly you hear the train announce your end point, you should get off. >_Bar w-w·w'.-If you can, Xiang Ji wants his terminal to be as far away as possible, or just sit and watch the scenery all the time?
The scenery outside the car window changed and changed, and soon it was close to the city. Another platform, on which several waiters hurriedly boarded the bus and left the somewhat dilapidated station.
Xiang Ji remembers that there was such a dilapidated bus stop near the primary school in his hometown when he was a child, and there were often people on the platform, and there were many small stalls and vendors on the sidewalks nearby, selling soda popsicles, twist candy, and of course, the very popular marshmallows and popcorn.
Until one day, the school came to a bookstall with him, where Xiang Ji saw martial arts novels for the first time. Now he didn't remember what the novel was called and what it was, but he only remembered that when he saw a small book with a colorful cover and a pair of swords on it in a large pile of crumpled old books, he vaguely felt as if he had seen a new world that he had never seen before.
It seems that it was at that time that his classmates and friends began to become popular to read these "unprofessional" extracurricular books. Xiang Ji began to hear that the green mountains do not change, and the green water flows forever, and he began to hear the heroic package of "two catties of cooked beef, one jar of daughter red", and he also heard the children discuss the combination of two swords and eighteen palms of the dragon.
Later, these stories began to be brought to the screen, first on TV, then on the movies, on the big screen.
Xiang Ji looked at the huge TV wall set up on the street outside the window and sighed.
It should be said that it is a good thing that martial arts novels have been filmed into TV series and movies. The characters, stories, martial arts, and weapons that could only be speculated in the imagination in the past have begun to have vivid images, which cannot but be said to be the gospel of martial arts fans. ___bar_w=w-w'.
However, it is precisely because of the wild imagination in the past that there is a relatively fixed image, and to a certain extent, this is also a shackle. Of course, this is just Xiang Zhi's own thoughts.
In fact, the main reason is that Xiang Ji had grown up a little at that time, and when martial arts stories began to shine on the screen, their group of people had grown up a lot, and the dream of martial arts naturally began to dissipate. Over the past few years, more and more martial arts stories have been filmed into TV series and movies to meet more people, so that the culture of martial arts can spread among a wider range of people.
The characters on the screen are getting more and more beautiful, and the props are getting more and more realistic, making them known to more and more people. However, in life, there are fewer and fewer people who say that the green mountains do not change, and the green waters flow forever; and more and more people think about being chivalrous in the world, eliminating violence and peace, being righteous in their lives, and invincible in the world; because the children have become big children, and the big children have vaguely felt that those stories of dancing with swords and swords, flying eaves and walking on the wall are always just stories, they only exist in imagination and legends.
All in all, the big dream has awakened.
However, Xiang Ji was different, and he was more convinced of those stories at that time, because he had already realized the strangeness and extraordinariness of that scabbard. So, at an age when he should not be obsessed with the legends of the rivers and lakes and the love of his children, Xiang Ji began to chase the world in the text of the novel frantically.
He said that he wanted to strengthen his body, exercise, and learn some self-defense methods, so he enrolled in a martial arts class to learn. The family also understands and thinks it's good to learn something, at least they can have some means to protect themselves in case of accidents. However, the result was destined to disappoint him, the teenager's entry soon appeared, he was actually just learning broadcast gymnastics, even if he was an instructor of the sports school martial arts team, he was just an athlete, not the martial arts master he was looking for.
As a result, Xiang Ji never had the idea of fighting in a martial arts class again. Of course, he didn't give up.
After going to college, Liberty began to use all his time to find the rivers and lakes in his heart. He used his vacation time to travel, but in fact he went to Songshan, Henan Province to practice martial arts. Xiang Ji applied for a martial arts school and went to Shaolin Temple, where he learned some martial arts with real combat ability.
However, this is still not what he wants.
In modern times, martial arts have declined, and by the time of the Xiang Dynasty, they had shrunk and weakened. Most of the various martial arts schools are only known by their names, and there are very few actual inheritors. Most of the tricks that Xiang Ji learned were actually sanda, not even traditional martial arts, which was really not his goal.
But what about Xiang Ji? The general environment of the entire era is like this, and the most common methods of actual combat fighting are sanda and boxing, and there are Tai Chi for health and fitness, and there are broadcast gymnastics, so how many people will practice the kind of old-fashioned martial arts that practice hard and take 10 or 20 years to achieve results? Not to mention that no matter how high your martial arts are, you are afraid of kitchen knives, even if you are talented and lucky enough to practice martial arts, so what?
After work, Xiang Ji has his own time and financial foundation, and has invested a lot of time and energy to explore ancient traditional martial arts, but most of the results are unsatisfactory, and some facts are even more shocking to him.
Following the clues that were not too far away during the prosperous period of modern national arts, Xiang Ji found many traces of the existence of the masters of national arts, and met their descendants. It's a pity that even when those grandmasters were still alive, martial arts could not resist the increasingly powerful hot weapons in modern times, let alone the current era of unprecedented thermal weapons?
And the inheritance of many traditional martial arts, after all, still needs people's wisdom too much. In the hundreds of thousands of years of inheritance, the inheritance of many things will inevitably be fallacious, even those martial arts families, the heirs of the mantle, they are still unable to determine whether the records in those classics are legends or real history, what kind of height can their skills can reach?
Xiang Ji was already confused at that time, maybe this was really just his own delusion? He didn't give up, and began to be a standard traveler, traveling all over the north and south of the river, inside and outside the Great Wall, just to find clues of the existence of those mortals in the ruins and cliffs, and in the cultural relics and monuments, whether it was qi and blood holding pills, gods fighting witchcraft, or the internal strength and true qi in the classics, the Yuan Shen Jindan, as long as one can be found.
It's a pity, no, nothing, except for the more ethereal legends buried in the obscure history, he got nothing.
As Xiang Ji grew older, society, family, and friends began to persuade him to relent, be an ordinary person, start a family, marry a wife and have children. Maybe those things really don't exist in this world, after all, this world is so realistic. He was also becoming more and more powerless, and it was only in the middle of the night when no one was around, rubbing the smooth scabbard, that Xiang Ji stumbled upon the realization that those magical stories might really exist.
So, just when Xiang Ji was helpless and anxious, a web page opened by chance changed his life.
"Do you want to know the meaning of life, do you want to be truly alive? yes/no"
Cut! Anyone else doing this kind of prank these days? When I haven't read infinity novels?
But so what? Since there are still people playing, I'll play with them.
With a click of a mouse, the world is turned upside down.
