Chapter 3 The Zen door is vast, and there is only a fate
Liu Tugou worshiped under the door of the Zen Gate Wild Fox in such a daze, and it is said that he is still a great disciple of the mountain.
How is the Zen door, the old monk did not elaborate, and Liu Tugou has not figured out what the standard of the old monk to choose his apprentices is, in the words of the wild fox Zen master, it is "the Zen door is vast, only fate".
Under the Zhou Tian, there are billions of living beings, multiplying from generation to generation, and their metabolism is renewed.
Liu Tugou always thought that the reason why people called the world Zhou Tian was because of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Who knew that the cheap master told him that there was a Zhou Dynasty first, and then there was the Great Zhou Dynasty. And since there is a world, there is naturally a heaven, and since there is a week, there is naturally a week.
Liu Tugou seems to understand whether he understands or not, but he finally knows that the world is more vast than he imagined, and if he wants to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the sky, he can only practice honestly.
Liu Tugou had no interest in the scenery beyond the sky, and wanted to learn the killing technique of being a general, and when he returned to Lanling City one day, he was also satisfied with the cheers of thousands of people like General Yan.
If you let the heroes of the world know that Liu Tugou is ruining the world's hard-to-find immortal fate like this, he will definitely beat his chest.
Who knew that the wild fox Zen master slapped his thigh: "Okay! Let's learn the art of killing! I am a wild fox, the appearance is frank and immortal Buddha, the inside is deep is the demon heart, the participation is the wild fox Zen, the cultivation is the demon thoughts, life can not bring disaster to the country and the people, death can not be praised by ten thousand people, how incompetent!"
Liu Tugou listened in a cold sweat.
The old fox didn't drag the mud and water, and at the moment he pointed his finger to the center of Liu Tugou's eyebrows, and passed him a set of "Breaking the Ring Knife", a set of "The Same Return", and a "Heart and Blood Quenching Knife Sutra".
Breaking the precept and killing, sacrificing one's body together, quenching the knife with hard work, and forging the body with sword qi.
Killing oneself and killing sentient beings is murderous and without any mercy.
To say that this knife is really a technical job, look at just a few horizontal and vertical chopping movements, but how the angle, how much force, how to cooperate with the elbows, waist and legs, know is one thing, it is really difficult to use, without thousands of practices, not to mention that you can't be handy against the enemy, standing there so that you don't know how to cut the knife.
Fortunately, Liu Tugou has been in the slaughter world for many years, and he is a skilled hand with a knife, and he can cross the first threshold, not to mention that the old fox is also a heart-to-heart, eliminating the process of memory.
When Liu Tugou swallowed the jujube and initially comprehended, the old fox casually threw him into the illusion to fight against the bandits, saying when he could make it easy to use the knife and his clothes were not stained with blood.
Liu Tugou shouted that he wanted to learn the art of killing, and it was not ambiguous to use the knife when fighting the lame old wolf, but where he had killed someone, even if he knew that it was an illusion, he couldn't be calm. He is not a good man in Heifeng Village, and he is familiar with the business of making money and killing people.
Killing people is completely different from killing animals, imagine if a person slaughters the same kind such as pigs and dogs, is he still a person?
Liu Tugou was in a different place several times, and while he was annoyed, he couldn't help but think of the legend of the Dragon Slaying Clan, and remembered the answer with General Yan that day, and his heart couldn't help but stir.
Anyway, since he has chosen this path, the master will kill 10,000 people to cheer, kill a god in the world, and let no one dare to laugh at the name of the Dog Slaughtering Clan!
Who said that a mediocre life of working hard for a living day after day can't raise a monstrous anger?
In the past, the dog butcher was muddy and his life was as cheap as grass, but the moment he saw the car of King Lanling, the moment he heard General Yan's arrogant words, the moment he gave up his wealth to seek the Tao today, and the moment he wielded a knife to kill people, Liu Tugou was reborn!
The blade of the axe slashed, and Liu Tugou did not retreat but advanced, and crashed into the arms of the owner of the axe, ignoring the handle of the axe that smashed heavily on his shoulder.
The blade burrowed into the thief's heart and came out, blood gushing out of his face, pouring over his messy hair.
Hearty!
Liu Tugou stood in place, silent for a long time, and suddenly grinned: "It turns out that killing people is no different from killing dogs and killing wolves, maybe it's simpler." ”
"Male on the inside, never on the outside. ”
The old fox outside the illusion folded his hands and his eyes were shining.
"Born to kill an embryo!"
The years in the mountains have turned, and suddenly it has been a few months, and a thin layer of fallen leaves has accumulated in the forest, which has a sense of depression.
Liu Tugou stood in the forest, his long hair was scattered, his upper body was naked, and he was only wearing a pair of pants made of wolf skin, except that his skin was still white, no different from a wild man.
The strong image makes people unconsciously ignore that he is still a thin child.
The Zen Gate does not enforce shaving, and Liu Tugou has no intention of becoming a monk. Whoever saw him and the old fox would never have imagined that they were master and apprentice.
Such changes, in addition to killing and being killed in the illusion, are mainly due to the "Heart and Blood Quenching Knife Sutra".
According to the old fox, this is a profound method that is used to build a foundation, but it is not limited to it.
The so-called blood does not need to be taken from the heart, but actually refers to the blood of the fingertips and eyebrows.
These two places have a ten-finger connection to the heart, and a nourishing spirit, and the aura contained in them is the most sufficient.
Each time you practice, you need to choose the time when the purple qi rises at sunrise in the early morning and when the yang energy is at its peak at noon, take blood from the fingertips and eyebrows respectively, and smear the entire blade, using blood as a medium, with mental methods and formulas, to establish a subtle connection with the knife.
Quench the blade on the outside, and nourish the soul of the knife inside.
This first step is the most harmful to the vitality, and people with poor talent or incompatible with the knife will not only fail to build a foundation, but will suffer a big loss of qi and blood, and lose their longevity.
It took Liu Tugou for 18 days to sense the faint aura in the knife, and the whole person was extremely weak, pale, and his limbs were weak, and he couldn't even lift the knife.
Thanks to his courage and hard-heartedness, and the butcher's knife in his hand all the year round, he is very familiar with it, so he succeeded by luck.
In this process, the old fox always watched coldly, Liu Tugou had no complaints, all supported by the surplus grain in the baggage, there was no shortage of water, the mountain stream was not far away, the weakest few days simply lay by the stream with a knife, turned over and took a sip when he was thirsty, and then continued to stand up.
After surviving this level, he was finally able to induce a wisp of golden qi in the knife to feed back into his body. The golden qi is sharp, and the body is forged with it, almost like a knife cutting, and the pain can be imagined.
Especially the first few times, Liu Tugou was so painful that he would rather cut off his head a thousand times in the illusion than let that wisp of golden qi like a needle and a cone rampage in his body.
The pain was so bad, Liu Tugou was sweating profusely and rolling on the ground, and he didn't forget to curse loudly that the old fox had sores on the top of his head and pus on the soles of his feet, and then he was sneered by the old fox and kicked into the mountain stream.
After the work was done, the old fox always stood aside with a smile, looking at the apprentice who crawled out of the stream with his teeth clenched, and did not forget to fall into the well.
"Be content, I don't know how many people are willing to risk their lives to change this sword scripture, and it is better to concentrate on guiding Jin Qi than to have the strength to scold the master. In case you go wrong, your muscles and veins will be broken and you will become a wasted person, and you can't say that you will have to break your bones, and then you will be too lazy to collect the corpse of you all over the mountain in a small piece......"
In this way, day after day, Liu Tugou initially laid the foundation and stumbled on the path of cultivation.
The body, which had been weakened by excessive blood loss, became stronger and stronger, and even the dark complexion of the sun and wind was restored to its fair complexion.
Because of frequent blood collection, the fingers of his hands and even the flesh and nails are a little abnormally red, and the center of his eyebrows has left a red vertical mark, which looks very demonic.
And the dog slaughtering and pig killing knife has been tempered day and night, it is more sharp, and at the same time it is tenacious, it is really a good butcher knife.
He had used this slaughtering knife to kill the bandits countless times, and he had been killed countless times, until he walked through the jungle of knives and axes.
Sacrifice one's life, when the knife is out, he only seeks to kill the enemy and not seek self-protection, first sacrifice his life and then survive;
Liu Tugou, who had never been imprisoned by thinking, did not realize that the cheap master's request for a knife made him reach the realm of no tricks unconsciously, although compared with the real realm of no tricks after returning to the basics from simplicity to complexity, it is more than 108,000 miles worse, but at this age, it is also a great achievement.
How many people are not allowed to enter the knife path for the rest of their lives, Liu Tugou has already knocked on the door and stepped into half a foot.
This is not the same as the wild road that has to be realized in the killing without a teacher.
Because there are knife scores and master guidance to avoid countless fatal detours, of course, there are pros and cons to doing so, and it may not be possible to reach the peak earlier than the ascetic who takes one step at a time.
Illusion can provide a near-real grind, except that you will not actually die, the other experiences are exactly the same, broken hands and feet, disemboweled, and no one wants to taste it thousands of times in a row. But the benefits are also obvious, and I don't know how many people will be blushing when it spreads.
Of course, the illusion is not omnipotent, those thieves do exist, it is said that they did a lot of evil and unfortunately crashed into the illusion, or died of exhaustion or collapsed and committed suicide or killed each other, and the soul was detained by the old fox, and the right to be used as waste.
The old Zen master was quite straightforward and arrogant, and the little killing embryo was full of reason when he heard it.
The wild fox has its teacher, and it has its apprentices, and it should be prosperous!
It's a pity that a bandit is a bandit after all, and there is no comparison with the battlefield veterans and martial arts heroes, let alone cultivators. It is still so-so to practice courage, and it is purely a foolish life for Liu Tugou to practice knives and practice pseudo-tricks.
When the little killer embryo learned that although the old fox could not collect the soul at will out of some scruples, he had seen countless masters in the process of walking the world, so he ran to ask the old fox what the chances of winning the battle with the old general Yan were now, but the old fox unceremoniously poured a large basin of cold water on him.
"Yan Tieyi, a veteran of a hundred battles, was a battler in Dingxiang back then, rode into battle alone, and beheaded eight hundred, that is the real murder knife. After that, there is diligence, even if it is difficult to step into the realm of the great grandmaster in this life, killing you is enough for three swords. ”
It turned out that his name was Yan Tieyi, and Liu Tugou was full of joy.
That day, Lao Yan's eyes without killing intent made his heart shake, and now it takes three knives to kill himself, and the pain of quenching knives and axes for months is worth it!
The old fox glanced at the complacent little killer, as if he was interested, and said: "You heavy and light rammer, sitting in the well and watching the sky and not knowing the heroes of the world. Although Yan Tieyi is also a rare fierce general, he can only be regarded as a second-rate figure when he looks at Zhou Tian. ”
Liu Tugou lowered his head and stroked the cold and clear blade of his butcher's knife, and asked, "What about killing eight thousand?"
The old fox smiled dumbly, shook his head, and said, "That's not what the master says. But your standard is also novel, if you are ten thousand enemies, you can be among the first-class. ”
Liu Tugou raised his head and said: "The weather is getting colder, and that wolf skin is only made of this leather pants, and the upper body has not yet landed." ”
"There is a white-fronted tiger on the hill eighty miles to the east, and its fur is very thick. ”
Liu Tugou suddenly got up.
"Good apprentice, take the tiger skin and go down the mountain, the mountains and wilderness are not a place for men to live. Nalanling City is now full of murderous and dangerous eggs, if you have the heart to go back, you must not have the slightest thought of mercy. ”
Liu Tugou waved his hand and walked away.
The old fox squinted, and suddenly said, "Big brother, how do you think my apprentice is dumber than the Wu family?"
There was silence for a long time, and no one answered.
"Hehe, how can a hateful Heavenly Killer Star compare to a bloodless dog slaughter? ”
"It's not a little worse than the Dragon Slaying Clan. ”
