Chapter 33 Passing the Sword and Teaching the Tao

This day is also the last day for 'Chen Mo' to see the four of them when he dances the sword. After they finished arguing, they walked to the front of the bamboo house where they lived, danced their last swordsmanship here, and then indifferently said goodbye and left.

And after the four of them left one after another, 'Chen Mo' walked to the front of their sword-dancing bamboo house. On the forehead of the bamboo house, there is a huge bamboo flat, and the swordsmanship scratches on it form two ancient characters 'Kendo'.

Looking at the familiar word 'kendo', 'Chen Mo' remembered something in a trance. Then, he woke up from the dream he had been in for a long time, only to see the old man in front of him entering the bamboo dwelling.

Chen Mo, who woke up, felt that he had had a dream for a long time, which seemed to be related to the so-called sword path, but he didn't know how to start to realize the sword.

Shake off the doubts that were full of confusion caused by the dream that had been too long. Chen Mo didn't continue to think nonsense, but entered the bamboo house, and asked the old man who was holding his divine sword Tianqi suspiciously, "Senior, what is the way of the sword?"

Looking at the Divine Sword Heavenly Void, he was already an excited old man with an excited face, after hearing Chen Mo's words. didn't stop studying the divine sword in front of him, but replied casually: "The way of the sword is the way of the sword." ”

"It can't be detailed, and it can't be taught directly. It's all out of the heart. ”

After the old man's words, Chen Mo felt that he seemed to understand something, but he didn't understand. He thought of the four people in the dream, each with different views on the sword. It cannot be said that they are wrong, because everyone has a different understanding of the sword, just as everyone has a different understanding of the sword.

You can't say that their taste is wrong, and you can't say that their aesthetics are wrong.

Kendo, maybe that's it, everyone understands the sword differently, you can't say he's wrong, and you're right. All you have to do is stick to your ideas. To pay, work hard, it is possible to achieve your own kendo.

Thinking of Chen Mo here, he was a little sober-minded, and thanked the old man: "Thank you for the teachings of your predecessors." Then, as if he had thought of something, he asked the old man, "I wonder if the predecessor has a sword here?"

For Chen Mo's thanks, the crazy old man didn't even raise his eyes, and he played with the divine sword in front of him. Now I heard Chen Mo ask him again, and said impatiently: "In the bamboo house next to it, there is the old man's place of enlightenment, and there may be the sword you mentioned in it." ”

Then the old man seemed to think of something, and he was a little reluctant to move away from the Divine Sword Tianqi, and then said to Chen Mo: "The old man once said. I want to teach you swordsmanship and sword tricks. ”

"After you get the sword, go to the bamboo house and wait for the old man. When the time comes, the old man will practice some swordsmanship and sword tricks, and you will understand it by yourself. ”

Hearing the old man in front of him, he had to teach himself swordsmanship and sword skills. Chen Mo's face was full of joy, and he hurriedly ran towards the bamboo residence that the old man had just said.

In just a moment, Chen Mo walked to another bamboo house. There, he saw a large pile of swords, discarded haphazardly in the corner of the bamboo dwelling. Those swords, the swords were covered with dust, as if no one had used them for a long time.

I saw the bamboo house in front of me, the sword that was randomly thrown away by the old man and piled together. Chen Mo didn't have time to feel too much, so he took it from the dusty pile of swords. I found a sword that was made of something green and out of nowhere.

He didn't have the time to continue looking at the other furnishings of the bamboo house, so he walked outside quickly.

Outside, Chen Mo saw that the old man was holding the Excalibur Tianqi while researching, and walked out of the bamboo residence.

When the old man saw the emerald sword in Chen Mo's hand, he praised with a smile: "I still have a vision, and I took a sword that the old man used to break through the world when he was young." ”

Then, he seemed to explain: "This sword Xuan-level sword is called 'Emerald Green Green Peak'. The sword has its own yin and evil aura, and it is two feet seven inches long. ”

"I'll give it to you later!"

Chen Mo, who was already listening to the lecture in Zhuju, hurriedly replied respectfully: "Thank you seniors for the sword!"

When you enter the old man's place and see the word 'kendo' in the bamboo house, you should have entered a dream composed of the word 'kendo'. I learned a little about kendo. The old man did not reply to Chen Mo's thanks, but said.

After hearing the old man's words, Chen Mo's face was shocked, and he asked respectfully: "Senior, how do you know about that strange dream?"

In response to Chen Mo's question, the old man looked at him and explained as if he was a memory: "When the old man was young, he used to have four childhood friends. Because they had different understandings of kendo, they eventually parted ways. ”

"The word 'kendo' on this bamboo house was also drawn in the sword style danced at that time. ”

Then he seemed to be a little curious and asked Chen Mo, "I wonder what you have felt in this 'Kendo' dream?"

Seeing the old man ask himself, Chen Mo replied: "Senior, when the junior asked the senior, what is the way of the sword?"

The seniors replied: Kendo is the way of the sword, and it all comes from the heart. The younger generation also felt that the way in the sword is without him, only oneself and idealism. ”

Listening to the words of the person in front of him, the old man thought for a moment and replied, "It seems that you have determined the path of the sword that you will take in the future. And the old man's kendo perception is not easy to say. ”

Then, as if thinking of something, he said: "But the old man promised to pass on to you the swordsmanship and sword skills, now it depends on whether you can learn and feel something." ”

After speaking, the old man didn't wait for Chen Mo to reply, but picked up the divine sword Tianque in his hand and practiced the swordsmanship.

The old man who was practicing the swordsmanship said to Chen Mo: "This sword trick is the peerless immortal-level swordsmanship that the old man has learned in his life, and the true meaning sword technique." ”

With the old man, practice the true meaning sword technique he said. Chen Mo's eyes stared involuntarily, afraid of missing something.

When he saw the old man, he began to dance the sword very slowly, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to learn it.

Chen Mo, who was staring at the old man's swordsmanship, began to follow the old man's practice as if in a dream, and danced the 'Emerald Green Qingfeng' sword in his hand.

Step by step, one move at a time.

Gradually, the sword tricks practiced by Chen Mo and the old man began to synchronize. It also seemed to make him feel that there was something mixed in the sword style used by the old man.

The seemingly ordinary sword style, and the very slow sword moves, made Chen Mo feel so neat and neat, without any superfluous fancy.

And unconsciously, the speed of the old man who practiced swordsmanship gradually accelerated, and the sword style became more and more tricky, changing faster and faster. The fast Chen Mo didn't have time to think, he just blindly danced the true meaning sword trick with the old man.

Simply following the old man's sword style, he moved his body. The 'Emerald Green Green Peak' in his hand also followed the 'Divine Sword Heavenly Shortage' in the old man's hand, and danced out of the demonic green sword flowers like a competition.

It's very beautiful, and Chen Mo is intoxicated.

.........

When Chen Mo woke up from his intoxication, the old man was no longer there. At this time, he seemed to be engraved in his mind, and various sword styles appeared. This made Chen Mo can't help but want to dance those sword styles in his mind.

Over and over again, one move at a time.

Clumsiness from the very beginning.

By the time he became proficient later, Chen Mo seemed to have forgotten the passage of time.

When you are hungry, in the middle of the bamboo where Chen Mo is located, there will be all kinds of meals prepared.

When he was tired, he chose a bamboo residence to rest.

With the passage of time, Chen Mo began to live a repetitive and monotonous sword dance life like the 'self' of that dream.

The difference is that he is the only one dancing the sword style now, and the sword style is no longer the simple and boring basic sword style. Each style in it contains a lot of sword moves, and each move seems to have a lot of variations.

The ever-changing sword posture let Chen Mo be in front of the bamboo house, constantly repeating and practicing hard every day. He even felt that every day, there was a new change in the sword style.

That new change made him feel as if he was not repeating it every day, but comprehending the true meaning of the swordsmanship.
