Chapter 3 Finishing touches
At that moment, Yang Feng seemed to see his figure in Huan Chang. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the winter of ten years ago, after Yang Feng was bullied, he was very eager to become a martial artist.
He didn't know from what channel, he knew that Huan Chang's master Xu Yu was a hermit master, so he begged Xu Yu to teach him martial arts.
It's just that he was rejected by Xu Yu.
Yang Feng was very stubborn, and knelt outside the door for three days and three nights, and then fainted directly to the ground.
Yang Feng used his sincerity and perseverance to finally impress Xu Yu.
However, Xu Yu only taught Yang Feng very superficial martial arts, and did not recognize Yang Feng as his disciple.
Rao is like this, after ten years of martial arts, Yang Feng has also reached the peak of the realm of ascending to the hall and has become a veritable martial artist.
The martial arts career changed Yang Feng's fate, and Yang Feng had even more respect for Xu Yu, and always called himself a disciple of Xu Yu.
The current Huan Chang, just like Yang Feng ten years ago, is stubborn and full of desire for martial arts.
Yang Feng was very doting on his junior brother, and he couldn't bear to refuse at all, but he remembered his master's explanation, so he could only shake his head vigorously.
Huan Chang's face was full of disappointment, and his voice was a little hoarse and asked, "Why?"
Yang Feng didn't dare to look at Huan Chang's eyes, turned his head to stare in one direction, and said, "Since the master doesn't allow you to practice martial arts, it naturally makes sense. ”
"You just have to believe that the master won't harm you. ”
Huan Chang was silent, he didn't continue to entangle, just walked towards the courtyard with a complicated face.
Yang Feng looked at Huan Chang's back, but did not go to see Xu Yu, and only after a long time did he turn around and leave, walking towards his home.
Huan Chang pushed open the door and saw an old man with messy hair, holding a wine gourd, drunk and dreaming of death.
Even if Huan Chang walked in front of him, the old man didn't react at all, and still drank by himself.
"Master, why don't you let me practice martial arts?"
As if he hadn't heard Huan Chang's voice, the old man still squinted his eyes and kept pouring wine into his mouth.
Looking at the master's appearance, Huan Chang smiled bitterly, walked into the house a little lonely, and said self-deprecatingly: "Maybe I don't have the qualifications to practice martial arts." ”
Huan Chang took out a piece of rice paper, spread it on the drawing board, and lifted the brush to paint, but always felt uneasy.
After hesitating for a long time, Huan Chang finally put down the brush and did not do his homework as usual.
For three days in a row, Huan Chang did not calm down to read, practice calligraphy, or paint, but locked himself in the house, describing himself as withered.
As for the use at home, since Yang Feng has returned, there is no need to worry about Huan Chang at all.
During this period, Yang Feng also came over to see Huan Chang a few times, and every time he saw Huan Chang's appearance, he felt a little unbearable.
There was even a moment when he had the urge to teach Huan Chang martial arts in private, but he finally held back.
On this day, Huan Chang spread out a piece of rice paper in front of him, holding a brush in his hand, but like a few days ago, he didn't start writing for a long time.
Since the heart is no longer here, even if you have a brush in your hand, what can you do?
"Crunch!"
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Huan Chang thought that Yang Feng had come to see him, and did not look back.
"Ah Chang!"
A majestic voice sounded, but Huan Chang was shocked and hurriedly turned his head.
"Master. ”
Xu Yu didn't bring a wine jug today, his clothes were dressed neatly, and his hair, which was very messy before, was also very rare to be tidied up.
Xu Yu looked at the blank rice paper on the drawing board, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Ah Chang blames the master in his heart for not teaching you martial arts?"
Huan Chang raised his head suddenly, stared at Xu Yu and said, "Master did this, is it because I don't have the qualifications to practice martial arts?"
"The apprentice just wants to know the reason, and hopes that the master will say it clearly. ”
Xu Yu's eyes were a little deep, and he said, "Do you know what martial arts are?"
Huan Chang was refreshed when he heard this, maybe his doubts for many years were about to be solved today.
Although Huan Chang did not practice martial arts, he read a lot and had some understanding of martial arts, so he immediately began to answer without hesitation.
"Martial artists are not afraid of hardship, temper their bodies, and when they are trained to achieve great success, they really step into the path of martial arts, which is called the realm of ascending to the hall. ”
"If the martial artist has excellent qualifications, after the horizontal training is completed, he can cultivate the true qi from the outside in, which is the realm of entering the room. ”
"The realm of entering the room is divided into four small realms, which are refining and refining qi, refining qi and transforming gods, practicing gods and returning to the void, and refining the void and merging the way. ”
"A martial artist has reached the realm of refining the void and merging the Dao, and if there is another breakthrough, he can shed the mortal womb, prolong his life, and reach the legendary realm of metamorphosis. ”
Speaking of the word 'metamorphosis', Huan Chang's eyes were full of heat.
The martial artist of the mortal realm is the real supreme powerhouse, and this kind of powerhouse is even qualified to hold the position of sect leader in some sects.
The master of the mortal realm, no matter which vassal state he appears in, no prince dares to slack off.
It is recorded in the book that once a prince and monarch offended a strong man in the realm of metamorphosis, and as a result, the strong man entered the palace with a single sword, and the blood flowed like a river.
In that battle, the country's monarch and 38 members of the clan were all killed, and 3,000 elite armor soldiers came forward to besiege them, killing and wounding most of them, but they failed to leave the strong man behind.
Since then, even the powerful vassal states have not dared to offend the warriors easily.
The power of the warrior can be seen from this.
This is also why, Huan Chang aspires to become a martial artist.
In fact, not only Huan Chang, but every ideal teenager in the Kyushu Continent is eager to become a powerful martial artist.
As long as they become warriors, their fate will change, and even if the government and the law will have much less constraints on warriors.
Generally speaking, warriors will not kill civilians at will, otherwise they will be encircled and suppressed by the joint encirclement of knights and the government.
As long as the warrior doesn't act too much, the government will sometimes turn a blind eye, just like Yang Feng injured several people in the downtown area, but the official errand was over.
Hearing Huan Chang's narration, Xu Yu first nodded, and then shook his head.
"What Ah Chang said is just an ordinary cultivation method, and this is also the most popular cultivation method that has been explored by martial arts sages for thousands of years. ”
Huan Chang heard the strings and knew the meaning of elegance, and immediately asked, "Is there any other cultivation method?"
Xu Wei stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Martial arts, martial arts, martial arts first and then Tao, martial arts is the means, and the Tao is the goal." ”
Hearing this, Huan Chang felt a little as if he didn't understand.
Xu Yu continued to explain: "Ordinary martial artists practice martial arts just to gain great strength, but the real supreme powerhouse is to pursue the Dao. ”
Huan often asked, "What is the Tao?"
Xu Yu's eyes were a little deep, and then he sighed: "Everything in the world has its own way, and everyone's way is different. ”
"It's just that if you want to reach the peak of martial arts, you must comprehend your own way, otherwise you won't want to step into the realm of metamorphosis in your life. ”
"Generally speaking, a martial artist refining his body, cultivating his true qi from the outside in, and when he reaches the peak of entering the room, he will comprehend his own way. ”
"It's just that it's too difficult to comprehend your own way. ”
Speaking of this, Xu Yu stared at Huan Chang with burning eyes and said, "However, there is a kind of amazing talent, they don't use the cultivation methods of ordinary people. ”
"There used to be people who loved fishing, regardless of cold and summer, and fished every day, but one day they realized their own way, and directly jumped from an ordinary person to become a top powerhouse in the mortal realm. ”
"There are also some people who love nature and are fascinated by the mountains and rivers every day, but suddenly they have true qi. ”
"This kind of person breaks the cultivation routine and enters the Dao in an alternative way, and he is a truly amazing and brilliant person, and his achievements are limitless. ”
When Huan Chang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and his breathing became short.
He was already very intelligent, and after hearing Xu Yu's words, he thought of the master's request to him, reading and painting since he was a child, and he also had some guesses in his heart.
"Could it be that the master wants me to enter the Tao differently?"
Regarding Huan Chang's reaction, Xu Yu was very satisfied and nodded slightly.
"Now it's time to tell you about our sect. ”
Huan Chang was surprised in his heart and asked, "Do we also have a sect?"
Xu Yu sighed deeply and said, "Although there are sects, I don't know how many people in the world have heard of the name of the Shujian Pavilion. ”
"Book Sword Pavilion. ”
Huan Chang muttered in a low voice, the light in his eyes became more and more intense, and he somewhat understood why the master didn't let him practice martial arts.
Xu Yu said in a deep voice: "Although my Shujian Pavilion is thin and has the same lineage, it was once a first-class sect in the world, and it was powerful in the world. ”
"Every generation of Shujian Pavilion disciples must enter the Dao with a Shujian and walk out of the Dao that is different from ordinary martial artists in order to be qualified to be called the successor of the Shujian Pavilion. ”
Huan Chang stared at Xu Yu and asked a little eagerly, "Master wants me to enter the Tao with a book sword?"
After glancing at Huan Chang, Xu Yu said quietly: "Your situation is a bit special, you don't need to practice swords, you can only enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting, and you need to walk out of a different path." ”
"This is not only the expectation of the teacher for you, but also the expectation of the sages of the Sword Pavilion of the past dynasties. ”
Suddenly, Huan Chang felt a little heavy on his shoulders.
He didn't expect that the master would have such high expectations for himself, and at the same time he felt a little inexplicable.
Taking a deep breath, Huan Chang asked: "Dare to ask the master, to what extent can you enter the Tao with calligraphy and painting?"
Xu Yu asked rhetorically, "Have you ever heard of the story of the finishing touch?"
Huan Chang has been reading poetry since he was a child, so he naturally knows the allusions to the finishing touch, so he immediately nodded vigorously.
Xu Yu didn't answer, took the brush in Huan Chang's hand, came to the drawing board, closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then suddenly moved.
Xu Delirium's movements were too fast, Huan Chang only felt that Xu Delirium's arm had turned into countless afterimages, and it didn't take long for a divine dragon to appear on the rice paper.
This divine dragon, although lifelike, has no eyes.
"Look at it. ”
Xu Yu let out a low snort, his right hand trembled slightly, and slowly painted the eyes of the divine dragon.
At the next moment when the eyes were finished, the divine dragon on the rice paper actually came to life, let out a dragon groan, and rushed directly towards Huan Chang.
Huan Chang's appearance was shocked, and he had no doubt that if he let the divine dragon collide with him, his life would definitely be in danger.
