Chapter 117: Self-cultivation

Jiang Bugui and the others stopped all the way, and finally it took almost six days to get out of the Qinling Mountains. Retrieve the horses stored in the Gudao Inn in Lantian County, and rush back to Huayin County before dark. Everyone rested for one night in the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, and only a few people returned to the Huashan faction the next day.

After returning to the Huashan faction, because Feng Qingyang returned to Huashan one step earlier, and never gave up, he also passed on the matter of the martial arts competition and the interception and killing of the Songshan faction on the road to Yue Buqun. So basically Yue Buqun already knew about the descent of several people from the mountain this time. Therefore, Jiang Bugui was in the righteous hall of the Huashan faction, and simply reported these things to Yue Buqun again. And Jiang Bugui focused on the arrangement of the outer forces in Hanzhong this time, and Yue Buqun was very satisfied with this. In the end, he never gave up and reported to Yue Buqun about the intelligence arranged in Hanzhong. Finally, they chatted for a while before they went back.

After returning to Huashan, Jiang Bugui continued to live a life of cultivation and apprenticeship in Yangwu Pavilion. In this way, Jiang Bugui's life is very peaceful, and occasionally there are disciples who make small mistakes, and Jiang Bugui will all be handed over to Cheng Buxian for punishment. Because the Huashan faction is now thriving, the number of outer disciples has become very large, and there are more than 500 disciples practicing martial arts in Huashan, so Feng Buping, who is responsible for teaching the martial arts of outer disciples, often hands over some disciples who have made mistakes to Jiang Bugui to deal with, and Jiang Bugui sees that they are all trivial matters, so they are handed over to Cheng Buxian to deal with.

Although Cheng Buxian was reckless, he did a decent job in dealing with these punished disciples. Once again, Feng Buping came to Jiang Bugui to discuss the cultivation experience of Dugu Jiujian, but he inadvertently mentioned that Cheng Buxian had done a good job in dealing with the punishment of disciples. But it made Feng Buping laugh, and finally after Feng Buping explained that Jiang Bugui knew that when Feng Buping was still young, they were learning art in the Huashan School. At that time, Cheng Buxian was often punished by his uncle who managed the precepts of the Huashan faction at that time because of his reckless personality and often carried the black pot for other junior brothers. Therefore, Cheng Buxian can be regarded as experienced, Jiang Bugui was stunned for a while, this is okay! A person has become a master of Xing Prison because he is often punished.

However, in the end, Feng Buping thought of the Huashan faction, some uncles, and some brothers who studied together in the Huashan faction. And today's Huashan faction, including Lian Yue Buqun, plus Jiang Bugui, who joined later, only has six senior brothers. The uncle of the previous generation was the only one left with the master Feng Qingyang, and he felt sad in his heart. In the end, Feng Buping, who was comforted by Jiang Buping, recovered.

After Feng Buping recovered, he looked at Jiang Bugui and said, "So no matter what happens, our brothers and sisters must be united." Tragedies must not be allowed to happen again. ”

Jiang Bugui thought so. Since then, the relationship between Jiang Bugui and Feng Buping has become more intimate. Feng Buping no longer called Jiang Bugui Senior Brother Jiang, but directly called him Little Senior Brother like Yue Buqun and others. In this way, more than half a year passed in a hurry. Jiang Bugui felt that his Zixia seemed to have taken a step forward, but it was difficult to reach the third layer realm. Jiang Bugui had no choice but to ask for advice, Yue Buqun, who had already cultivated Zixia's divine skills to the point of rapid completion.

On this day, Jiang Bugui went to find Yue Buqun, who had moved to Ziyang Xuan to live. After coming to Ziyang Xuan, he found that Yue Buqun was watering flowers in the yard. And Linghu Lingchong, who had already begun to learn the basic swordsmanship of Huashan, practiced swords on the side. Seeing Jiang Bugui coming, Yue Buqun smiled slightly and said, "How can the little junior brother have time to come here today as a brother!" Because he has never abandoned the information of the Huashan faction now, Jiang Bugui has not often come to find Yue Buqun, so Yue Buqun will have this question.

Jiang Bugui smiled bitterly, and then spoke: "Senior brother in charge, junior brother came here this time to ask senior brother for martial arts. Immediately, Jiang Bugui told Yue Buqun about his situation.

But Yue Buqun didn't answer directly, but asked: "Senior brother, when you joined my Huashan faction, did you remember that the master and his old man were more beautiful than the flowers planted for my brother, and what about the master's calligraphy?" After speaking, Yue Buqun looked at Jiang Bugui with a smile.

Jiang Bugui was a little puzzled, he came to Yue Buqun to ask for advice on the cultivation of Zixia Divine Skill, but Yue Buqun discussed with him about raising flowers and writing. For a while, I couldn't think of what kind of dumb riddle Yue Buqun was playing. But Jiang Bugui knew that Yue Buqun must have a deep meaning when he said this. Then he replied: "Master and brother, the flowers they raise have their own merits. But the master's calligraphy is really good, and it is not worse than that of contemporary Confucianism. After Jiang Bugui finished speaking, he looked at Yue Buqun suspiciously.

Yue Buqun put down the kettle and said: "Yes, junior brother, master, his old man's calligraphy is the same as martial arts, and it is also the peak of the realm! Little junior brother, after you go back, you will also plant some flowers and plants in your Yangwu Pavilion and take care of them seriously. Let's practice calligraphy and painting again! Can the little junior brother understand the meaning of being a brother?"

Jiang Bugui thought about Yue Buqun's words again, and then suddenly realized.

Yue Buqun first talked about the flowers he and Ning Qingyuan planted, and then talked about Ning Qingyuan's calligraphy. Then he mentioned that the heads of Huashan in the past dynasties were outstanding in calligraphy, and they also loved flowers and plants, and finally let Jiang Bugui also plant flowers and grass. Jiang Bugui immediately understood that the successive heads of the Huashan faction had practiced Zixia Divine Skills, and they all practiced calligraphy, planting flowers and grasses and other self-cultivation habits. In addition, the martial arts of the Huashan faction belong to the Taoist school, so it must be a little hard work on the state of mind.

Immediately, Jiang Bugui saluted Yue Buqun and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your advice, junior brother has benefited a lot." The junior brother will not disturb the senior brother, and the junior brother will retire!"

Yue Buqun said with a smile: "It's good that the little junior brother understands, and I won't send it for my brother." After speaking, Yue Buqun continued to pick up the kettle and began to water the flowers.

Jiang Bugui also left Ziyang Xuan immediately. At this time, Ling Hu Lingchong was confused for a while, and Uncle Jiang was obviously asking his master for martial arts. But the master seemed to have said some gossip about life at all, but Uncle Jiang left happily as if he had won a treasure, what was going on, the two were clearly not connected, so he heard Yue Buqun say: "You practice your swordsmanship well, and you will understand your martial arts achievements in the future." ”

Ling Hu Lingchong immediately hurriedly controlled his mind and seriously cultivated swordsmanship. And after Jiang Bugui left Ziyang Xuan, he muttered in his heart: "It turns out that my Zixia Divine Skill has not been able to break through for a long time, and it turns out that the problem of cultivation is that my mood is not enough. Just like the last time when the mixed yuan gong could not be completed, after Jiang Bugui knew the problem, he immediately went back to solve the problem of martial arts that could not be broken through from this aspect.

Jiang Bugui knows that to cultivate one's self and enhance one's state of mind, it is not only a way to raise flowers and plants, practice calligraphy and painting, for example, studying the Tao Te Ching by oneself is also cultivating one's self-cultivation. Therefore, Jiang Bugui prepared to go back and read the Tao Te Ching again, while raising flowers and grass, and practicing calligraphy.
