Volume VIII Martial Arts

After picking medicine in the mountains for a few days, Mingxuan is more and more surprised, more and more happy, the thorny jungle that used to be quite laborious, although it can not be said that it is like walking on the ground, but it can be regarded as coping with it, and even the cliffs that he did not dare to set foot in before, he also has the courage to try, and his eyesight is much sharper than before, only a half-leaf herb is exposed, as long as it is noticed, it will definitely be discovered, all in all, it is really a pleasure for a martial artist to collect medicine, every day Mingxuan collects medicine, and the medicine basket is already full in less than a few hours, and he is more familiar with his skills。

Grandpa needs more than enough herbs, and he is also familiar with the changes in his body, it seems that he has to ask grandpa what he should do next, seeing that he is only a martial artist first-order is already like this, Mingxuan is even more looking forward to his future achievements.

"Are you ready now?" Grandpa looked at Ming Xuan, and had already seen the answer in his eyes, but he still wanted him to confirm it again, looking at the expectation in his eyes, Grandpa couldn't help but smile slightly, how could he not be like this back then.

"Okay, let's start over there, the clay boxing that I practiced before was just for laying the foundation, and now that you have broken through this threshold, it won't be much use if you practice again, and it won't be applicable, you have entered the first order of martial arts, and you have entered the track of martial artist cultivation, which is very good, no matter how you cultivate in the future, your body will be strengthened according to this law, but there is a difference between fast and slow, which depends on the diligence of personal cultivation. Grandpa gradually analyzed Mingxuan's doubts.

Breaking through to a martial artist is like a train entering the running track, and then it will continue to travel along this track, and the diligent process of cultivation is like the power of the train, which determines your travel speed.

"Mud fist is just a kind of strengthening of the body, but it has no other effect, and it is different for those who enter the martial arts, and the cultivation is no longer just a way to train the body, but contains a kind of martial art. ”

"Martial arts?"

"Yes, the so-called martial arts, that is, while enhancing one's own cultivation, increasing the skills of the enemy and the use of the body. There are many types of martial arts, many techniques. Taking the use of the body as an example, there are fist techniques, palm techniques, claw techniques, leg techniques, and so on, each with its own strengths; taking the use of weapons as an example, there are countless swordsmanship, knife techniques, marksmanship techniques, stick techniques, and so on; there are many other types, which are complicated and contended; and Zhongzhou has a wide range of people, and all kinds of cultivation emerge in endlessly, what I am talking about is just a little bit of the more popular teachings, but all the cultivation is the same way, and the essence is to cultivate the body, and the purpose is to break through the advancement......"

Ming Xuan was shocked when he heard his grandfather say it once, he found more and more that he was really ignorant, and he became more and more excited, because this is where he should go in the future, although he didn't know when his grandfather would let him go, but grandpa said for a long time, what should he learn?

After all, people's experience is limited, and there is no distinction between the advantages and disadvantages of various martial arts, only suitable for themselves or not, ordinary people will practice two or three techniques each, and even some people only choose one of each, greedy and chewy, each technique is practiced to the extreme is the strongest among the martial artists, of course, each stage of the reaction is different, because the physical state of the person in each stage is different, and the experience of martial arts after advancement is different. ”

It is true that letting a child practice a set of swordsmanship will definitely be different from an adult practicing the same set of swordsmanship, and every time the arm is advanced, the body is strengthened, and then practicing the original swordsmanship, it will inevitably feel different.

"Although there is no comparison of all kinds of techniques, but the same kind of techniques have advantages and disadvantages, such as palm method, each sect will have its own creation of boxing techniques, there must be differences in it, there will be differences between advantages and disadvantages, mainly reflected in the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy, as well as the mobilization of the body and the stimulation of potential, of course, there will be a suitable premise for oneself in the middle, some people's body is biased towards strength, so heavy, steady boxing is more suitable for him; if the body is biased towards agility, then light, ingenious boxing is more suitable. ”

What suits you is the best, Mingxuan is more agile, so it will be more suitable to learn agile boxing, but it is also a boxing method that focuses on agility, and there will be advantages and disadvantages, which is not difficult to understand.

"Of course, this is just the opinion of the world, but in my opinion, it is very ridiculous!" Grandpa's voice suddenly turned violent, looking up into the distance, as if his eyes were empty, detached from the world, and Mingxuan's heart trembled, this may be the original appearance of grandpa.

"How much water a bucket can hold is not determined by the longest piece of wood that makes up the bucket, but on the shortest piece, the body is good at one side, and it is not wrong to make it more prominent and become an advantage in itself, but it is a big mistake to ignore your own weaknesses by taking advantage of this, if your opponent attacks your weaknesses, you will be constrained, let alone give full play to your strengths, so the cultivation technique should not only highlight your own strengths, but also make up for your weaknesses!"

Ming Xuan suddenly brightened up, thinking carefully about his own characteristics, he seemed to have a slight advantage in agility, but the strength of the body itself was insufficient, it seemed that his choice of technique should be biased towards dexterity, and at the same time to exercise physical strength.

"Your body is not strong enough, which means that you are not able to withstand blows enough, in other words, the defense ability of the warrior is poor, this must be strengthened!

Grandpa's expectations for Ming Xuan are very high, as far as martial artists are concerned, Ming Xuan's physical strength should be the same as that of ordinary martial artists, and other aspects are superior to other martial artists, which can be regarded as advantages, but as far as his personal advancement is concerned, it seems that his physical strength is not good enough, and he needs to keep up with the speed of progress in other aspects.

"In order to better understand your own situation, I will teach a little bit of various aspects, which aspect you think you like more or can get started quickly, just choose that one. "Grandpa will not impose his own ideas on him, a qiē is still based on himself.

Grandpa teaches Mingxuan's techniques the same as teaching clay boxing, limited to oral, Mingxuan himself according to the practice, grandpa corrects it, the body is good to understand, weapons, just use wood to simulate, it is also quite presentable.

Grandpa knows a lot, the techniques handed over to Ming Xuan, although there is only a little bit of everything, it took more than ten days to learn it, and it took more than ten days to go through it all, so that Ming Xuan was also secretly speechless, and often wondered what kind of person Grandpa was, so well-read and strong-remembered, of course, grandpa brought him much more shock, and it was not strange, the more he knew about the outside world, the more he admired grandpa.

Ming Xuan carefully recalled the practice of more than ten days, repeatedly compared, and repeatedly experienced, and finally chose to practice boxing, leg and swordsmanship. Originally, he wanted to choose more, but his grandfather didn't let him, he was not proficient, so it was not too late for him to learn these three things before learning the others.

"Okay, since you have chosen the fist technique, the leg technique, and the sword technique, then I will teach you one set each......" Grandpa thought about it carefully.

"I pass on your clear boxing method, which is mainly balanced and biased towards strength; I pass on your cloud legs to the leg method, which is also balance-based, biased towards speed; and the sword technique is called drifting snow, which is won by dexterity. Hope for you can be suitable for you. Grandpa thought about it.

Mingxuan didn't have much of his own opinion on this, he didn't understand it at all, since his grandfather thought it was good, it would naturally not be bad.

After determining his own cultivation route, a new round of penance has begun again, compared to the previous simple laying of the foundation, the current cultivation is more specific, involving every detail, Ming Xuan also understands the goal of his efforts, although the difficulty has increased, but because he laid the foundation before, he doesn't feel so difficult to adapt to now, and there are not too many physical constraints after entering the martial arts, and the progress of cultivation mainly depends on his own experience and hard work.

Tongming boxing is a set of rigid boxing, all the skills lie in the flexible use of the body's strength, focusing on each punch can burst out of full strength, giving the opponent the strongest blow, but because it is a head-on confrontation of strength, so the requirements for strength and physical fitness are very harsh, and Mingxuan's strength is relatively weak, especially when practicing alone, each punch bursts full of strength, but it falls in the air, and the body is very depleted, and the requirements for themselves are higher.

Cloud piercing leg is a set of very comprehensive leg method, which can be used to dexterously dodge the opponent's attack, and can also wait for the opportunity to give the opponent a blow, if necessary, it can also increase a certain escape skill, and more importantly, because Ming Xuan wants to collect medicine, the road in the mountains is rugged, and the terrain is complex, which is conducive to cultivating the leg method and can improve the ability to travel into the mountains and forests, which is really a few in one fell swoop.

Drifting snow swordsmanship, well-known Xiaoyi, swordsmanship is as agile and elegant as drifting snow, unpredictable. Ming Xuan has never used weapons, and finally used the kitchen knife and digging medicine hoe, in order to practice swordsmanship, he built a sword in the town's Wang Ji Iron Shop, originally this set of swordsmanship is known for dexterity, so the sword used should also be light and agile. However, grandpa did the opposite, so that he created a bulky iron sword, according to grandpa, when Ming Xuan made this heavy sword the Drifting Snow Sword Technique freely, and then practiced with a light sword to experience the sword intent of the Drifting Snow Swordsmanship.

Since breaking through the martial arts, Ming Xuan has been more comfortable collecting medicine than before, it is easy to complete the set task, and it saves a lot of time to collect medicine, if it is still early to collect medicine, he will rush back to practice for a while, seeing that he has just simply broken through to the martial artist, and has already made such a big leap, Ming Xuan is even more looking forward to his future, so he can complete his cultivation well without the supervision of his grandfather.
