Chapter 018 The present world is respected by all the people
Li Chun said: "When the ancestors returned to the countryside, they warned their children and grandchildren that the descendants of the Li family should cultivate and read heirlooms. Practicing martial arts and fighting bravely, no matter how careful you are, will give birth to many incidents, not the way of family inheritance. It's just that the chaos in the world has become a trend, and although the heads of the family have a heart for literature, they still can't give up this martial art after all, and seek self-protection in the troubled times. ”
"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Although my Li family's flying knife is not a profound martial art, it has attracted a lot of coveting. It's hard to predict. I am not a person who cherishes myself, but I don't want to pass on my family martial arts to people with unscrupulous skills, so as not to ruin the reputation of my ancestors. Brother Zhao helped my family tide over the difficulties, and after a few days of getting along, I know that you have a pure character and are not a person who wants to repay your kindness. I've made a decision this time, and I hope you don't shirk it. ”
Zhao Yu listened to Li Chun's speech so solemnly, and his face couldn't help but get hot. He really had the intention of repaying the favor, and volunteered to help the Li family tide over the difficulties, and he also thought that it would be much stronger to ask for the flying knife stunt in this way.
He looked at Li Chun's solemn expression, and hurriedly said: "Master Li said this, Zhao Yu is very ashamed. I would be overjoyed to learn your flying knife skills, and promise you that I will never use them for evil!"
Li Chun wanted to teach Zhao Yu the flying knife skills, but in fact, it was not as righteous and awe-inspiring as he said, and he had some careful thoughts. Although his Li family advertises cultivating and reading heirlooms, ploughing is ploughing, but reading is still much worse.
The world has been in turmoil for a long time, and the people like to admire courage and not learn literature. Li Chun has insight into the world and knows that the general trend of the world will never be chaotic forever, although he can't see where the hope is, but the prosperous world will always come. The Li family has no background in literature after all, but Zhao Yu is the grandson of Zhao Mengfu, who is known as the crown of the Yuan people, although he is young but has a profound family tradition. It just so happens that Li Chun's eldest son, Li Muwen, likes literature again, and if he can get Zhao Yu to teach some true essence, the Li family will be inexhaustible. For the sake of future generations, he is willing to take out his family heirloom skills, all because he wants Zhao Yu to teach Li Muwen seriously.
With this idea in mind, Li Chun taught Zhao Yu the flying knife stunt with his heart, and he never hid his selfishness.
Martial arts in the world, only fast is not broken!
The Li family's flying knife stunt has been inherited for hundreds of years, and in the word "fast", it can be said that it has reached the peak! Li Chengru's internal strength is far weaker than Zhao Yu, but Zhao Yu can't dodge the flying knife he sent out!
Li Chun has been immersed in prostitution for half his life, and the flying knife in his hand is even more extraordinary. Zhao Yu once saw him demonstrate the flying knife stunt, only to see the five flying knives in his hand, the first to send out, a knife faster than a knife, but it was as neat as a hit target, only to hear a soft sound, the five flying knives all submerged into the pillar, only to see five deep black holes! Such a subtle means of controlling the force, it is really jaw-dropping.
Zhao Yu secretly smacked his tongue when he saw it, and said in his heart that if Li Chun made a move in Dongping Mansion that day, he was afraid that his two arms would not be able to be saved!
Since then, he has redoubled his efforts to learn the knife stunt, making rapid progress and often being able to draw inferences. The talent above martial arts is so high that Li Chun is full of praise.
While learning the Li family's flying knife skills, Zhao Yu was inspired by many things. Earlier, he had realized that martial arts were fundamentally related to internal force, but martial arts moves were superficial. The internal force is high, and it is infinitely powerful no matter how you use it. However, the Li family's flying knife has some faint signs to break this common sense, and the battle between Li Chengru and himself is a proof.
After thinking about it like this, Zhao Yu realized that martial arts is broad and profound, whether it is moves or internal strength, as long as there is one refined study to the extreme, he can be called a generation of grandmasters. At that level, there is no point in arguing about which is stronger or weaker. The flying knife is a spear, and the internal strength is a shield, and it is difficult to reach a conclusion about the contradictions for thousands of years.
However, Zhao Yu is far from reaching the peak of everything, and he doesn't mind the contradictions. However, this reflection added a new idea to his qi cultivation method.
The first sentence of the opening sentence in Huang Shang's notes says "The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency by losing more than is lost", which is indeed a quote from the Tao Te Ching. But when Zhao Yu read it, he only saw the second half of the sentence, but ignored the first half of the sentence. At this time, when I thought about it, I felt that there was something wrong with using martial arts.
The world is big, the vitality is full, and there is a lot of foundation to go to the loss and make up for the deficiency. But people are not, after all, not as vast as heaven and earth, if you force this heaven and earth to use the truth of your own body, in the end you can only take a golden mean, fall behind, and wipe out the original strengths. From this point of view, martial arts cultivation can only be made up for but not damaged! But where can it be made up?
This question is beyond the scope of Zhao Yu's understanding, and it is not even mentioned in Huang Shang's notes. This also made Zhao Yu realize that although the qi cultivation method he practiced at home was exquisite, it had not yet reached its peak after all. But he is not in a hurry, there are still a lot of years in the future for him to make up for it.
While earnestly learning the flying knife stunt, Zhao Yu also understood Li Chun's intentions, and taught Li Muwen, who admired calligraphy, with special care.
Li Muwen is diligent, the problem is that the enlightenment kung fu is poor, although for many years the pen has not stopped, but the calligraphy is a shell and it is difficult to touch the essence of the gods, just like people are pulled out of the bones, lose the most important bones, no matter how hard to practice but difficult to achieve.
This problem is big and small, but Li Muwen is already old and mature, and it is difficult to reverse it for a while. Zhao Yu did not force him to correct his mistakes, and did not pass on his tricks of using a pen to get up, but let him pick up a pen every day and smear it on the paper wantonly, without seeking form.
At this time, Li Muwen had already regarded Zhao Yu as a god, and obeyed his orders, not caring whether there was a deep meaning in it. It is strange to say that after a few days of graffiti like this, his mind gradually became flexible, and the dull atmosphere that he had cultivated after studying for a long time dissipated a lot.
At this time, Zhao Yu began to formally teach Li Muwen calligraphy. Li Muwen didn't know the truth that calligraphy is easy to put and difficult to put away, and when he learned words, his previous experience and techniques became much more unfamiliar, and the words he wrote were like children's graffiti, which was miserable.
That Li Chengru has been in peace recently, staying at home honestly, and sometimes coming to Zhao Yu to listen to him talk about the way of calligraphy. This Li Chengru saw that his brother's handwriting had become ugly when he saw that his brother had been studying for a few days, and he couldn't help but say: "The eldest brother used to write so thoughtfully, much more beautiful than Wang Tiebi, who wrote letters on behalf of people on West Street." After a few days of studying, how can it be that the writing is more ugly than mine?"
Li Chun said nonsense, but he had the same doubt in his heart, but it was not easy to ask Zhao Yu.
On the contrary, Li Muwen learned a deep understanding during this time, and said: "How do you know that the master is teaching me to break and stand up." Breaking all my past pedantic and rigid experiences, although I am not successful at the moment, I can see a broad road in front of me, and the future is bright!"
Although the floods in Shandong have been slightly contained, the disaster has become more and more serious due to the missed agricultural time. Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced and uprooted from their homes. It's just that the chaos in the world has become a reality, and where can they find life.
Li Jiazhuang is hidden in the world, but it is not beyond the world, and it is more or less affected. In the fields, the figure of the homeless gradually appeared under the tile.
In the world, transcendence and self-preservation are extravagant expectations. The crops planted in the fields near the grange on the left side of Lijiazhuang turned blue, and they were pulled out by the victims to satisfy their hunger. After several clashes between the local people and the victims, they came to Shangzhuang to ask Li Chun for arbitration. Li Chun didn't have a good idea for this, to protect the interests of the villagers, but it was inevitable that he would cut off the livelihood of the victims, which was really difficult.
While Zhao Yu practiced martial arts diligently, he carefully watched how Li Chun would deal with it. This is what he wants to learn when he travels around the world, and driving out the Tartars is not as simple as a bloody slogan, in addition to fighting bravely, the vitality of the people is equally important. If the people of the world are cut off from their way of life, what is the use of snatching back the land of China?
The damage has already been done, and there is no point in dwelling on it. Li Chun contacted several squires in the left and near the left, organized a village warrior team to inspect the fields, and distributed iron tools to let the victims reclaim the wasteland, plant many crops that could be harvested quickly, and lead the victims to Liangshan Bozuo to hunt and fish, and subsidize food. Although this does not contain the disaster, it does give people a hope and a chance to live.
In such a major disaster in the previous dynasty, the imperial court would provide disaster relief with work. It's just that the Yuan court is currently fighting for power, and it is suffering from the rebellion of the Jinren in Liaodong, and the responsibility of the government should have been transferred to the squires with public prestige in the countryside at this time. Zhao Yu watched Li Chunzhen do his best to plan countermeasures, and realized that it is not easy for people to struggle to survive.
On this day, several visitors came to Lijiazhuang and said that they wanted to visit Li Chun. Li Chun invited a few people into the hospital and talked for a long time in the pavilion.
Zhao Yu was teaching Li Muwen calligraphy all morning, but when he walked over, he saw Li Chun waving his palm and splitting the corner of the stone table, and then the visitors left with embarrassed faces.
Zhao Yu was curious, walked up to Li Chun's side and asked, "Master Li, but the evil guest is coming?"
Li Chun's face was tired, and he sighed suddenly, then asked Zhao Yu to sit opposite him, and asked, "I was greatly inspired to listen to Brother Zhao's comments on Song Jiang and the other rights and wrongs on Liangshan that day. I don't know how you judge Fang La, the head of Manichaeism in the late Song Dynasty?"
Zhao Yu didn't expect Li Chun to suddenly ask, and after being stunned for a moment, he thought about it seriously. He took it as his mission to drive out the Tartars, and naturally thought a lot about the gains and losses of the previous dynasty. Compared with Song Jiang and other big Kou, Fang La's disaster is much greater, and the southeast half of the wall has become a prairie fire. In history, Fang La gathered tens of thousands of people with Manichaean teachings and swept the southeast, although there were flowers and stones for the disaster of the southeast, but Fang La himself should not be underestimated.
Zhao Yu eloquently expressed his own opinions, although he did not specify it in his words, but his high evaluation of Fang La far exceeded that of Song Jiang.
Li Chun listened and couldn't help nodding, until Zhao Yu closed his voice, and then asked again: "How much does Brother Zhao know about the affairs of the rivers and lakes?"
Zhao Yu shook his head, he had traveled for less than half a year, and the rivers and lakes he had seen were only a corner of the world, and it was difficult to see the whole picture.
Li Chun said: "There is a big faction in the rivers and lakes, and this faction of people acts unreasonably and unreasonably, so it is called the Demon Sect. And they themselves believe in the teachings of Mingzun and call themselves Mingjiao......"
Zhao Yu looked puzzled, he didn't know why Li Chun mentioned this matter, and then he heard Li Chun say: "Ming Christians are self-denying and discipline, and those who say that they are brothers and sisters, and one person is in trouble and helps from all directions. Therefore, although it has a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, there are quite a lot of believers in the countryside. ”
"Isn't this Manichaeism?" It was only at this time that Zhao Yu heard a little clue.
Li Chun nodded and said, "Those few people who came just now are the remnants of Zhou Ziwang of the Maitreya Sect of the Yuanzhou Ming Sect, and after Zhou Ziwang was defeated and died, they came to invite me to start an incident in Dongping Mansion. ”
Zhao Yu didn't have any idea for a while, and asked in a loud voice: "How does Master Li answer them?"
Li Chun shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Mingjiao is a wonderful flower, the Song Dynasty is anti-Song, the Yuan Dynasty is anti-Yuan, vowing to get rid of the filth in the world and welcome the Ming Zun to the worldless world, his feelings are pitiful, and his ambition is commendable." If I had been twenty years younger, I might have been bewitched, but as I got older, I sought more stability. Moreover, Shandong has suffered one disaster after another, and people's livelihood has reached the most difficult moment. At this time, whether it is the righteousness of the nation or the descendation of Mingzun, it is not as big as eating and living, and it is really impossible to withstand the turmoil. ”
Zhao Yu nodded in agreement with Li Chun's statement, but wrote down the name "Mingjiao" in his heart.
