Under Tang Wei's teaching, Wei Lai quickly learned the basic use of knives, swords, and spears. Correspondingly, the system of the card drawing machine also formed knife lv1, sword lv1 and marksmanship lv1.

The remaining weapons, which are less common or less frequently used, are put aside for the time being and studied when needed. In this way, Wei Lai started the learning journey of the [Heavenly Stick Method].

Tang Mansion Practice Ground.

Tang Wei threw Wei Lai a rattan stick and said: "The core of the stick method is three words: 'connect, transform, and hair'. ”

"Then you attack me with a stick, and we'll explain it in actual combat. ”

"Yes!"

Tang Wei took it lightly with one hand and then brushed away Wei Lai's seemingly powerful stick, and said: "Fighting with a stick is not in the skill, and the stick method does not advocate hard fighting in the technique, but pays attention to the technique and method, and uses both rigidity and softness. This is the connection. ”

"The stick is shaved from the inside and rolled from the outside down, and this is similar to the chopping of a knife. As he spoke, he raised his hand and picked it up, and then it was followed by a blow that smashed Huashan's head, and Wei Lai hurriedly parried it with an overlord. Even though it was caught, the arm that shook was numb.

Tang Wei's voice sounded again: "Practicing sticks requires Zhongping and uprightness, just like holding a sword." The tip of the stick sticks to the opponent's stick, or arcs to the left to block the opponent's stick, or arcs to the right to block the opponent's stick, or rotates around the opponent's stick tip in a circle so that the stick tip cannot escape. ”

As he spoke, Tang Wei skillfully turned Wei Lai's stick tip and led Wei to run around, and continued: "This is the magic of Hua. ”

"The most powerful place to strike a man with a stick is in the tip of the stick and in the tip of a stick about a foot from the tip of the stick. The force of the blow is greater than that of other places, and this place is called the force point. Therefore, when the enemy fights, each side wants to use this section of stick to hit the other. In the same way, spears are often struck with thorns or spear heads. ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Wei "snapped" a stick on Wei Lai's hand, and Wei Lai didn't hold it in pain, so he dropped the stick on the ground. Tang Wei held the stick in one hand, looked at Wei with a smile and said, "This is the use of taking over your power and turning it into my body." ”

In this way, it can be described as: connecting, transforming, and sending. ”

Wei Lai grinned and rubbed his hands, picked up the stick and exhaled fiercely: "Come again!"

Tang Wei hooked his hand and motioned for Wei to attack again.

After receiving Wei Lai's attack again, Tang Wei slashed down Wei Lai's stick, trying to force Wei Lai to let go. And Wei Lai had an idea, knocked the tail of the stick with his foot, turned the stick around, and turned it back and forth, forcing Tang Wei back and defusing the offensive just now.

Tang Wei's eyes lit up, and he said appreciatively: "That's right! This improvisation proves that you are a genius who learns sticks!"

"Holding the stick in both hands, the hand in front is called the pioneer hand, and the force of the stick comes from the pioneer hand, so the pioneer hand is the force point, if the pioneer hand is injured, the force cannot be sent. Therefore, whenever the enemy attacks with sticks, I will avoid his strength and control his vanguard. ”

Tang Wei's voice and his stick struck Wei Lai at the same time, this time the stick was fast and powerful, and it hit Wei Lai's vanguard hand again with great accuracy, and once again knocked Wei Lai's stick away.

After Wei Lai picked up the stick, the two fought against each other for a few more rounds, all of which ended with Wei Lai's pioneer being dropped by the beating stick.

And this time, Tang Wei actually threw away his stick. In Wei Lai's surprised eyes, Tang Wei actually caught Wei Lai's weapon with his hand, and knocked Wei Lai's stick off with a snap again. Tang Wei said to Wei with a deep voice behind his back: "Remember this feeling of being hit repeatedly in the vanguard hand, and get used to it. Don't throw away your weapon because you've been beaten, and don't sit back and wait for your weapon to be killed. Not only do you have to be familiar with the use of sticks, but you also have to be able to connect, transform, and send every part of your body, and then look for opportunities to launch a counterattack! Of course, this is also a skill that can only be achieved by cultivating to a high and profound realm, and you are still young, so you can cultivate slowly. ”

Wei Lai thought back to the feeling of Tang Wei hitting his hand with a palm turning stick, and he was vaguely interested in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out.

"After talking about offensive techniques, let's talk about defensive techniques. Tang Wei's words interrupted Wei Lai's thoughts, and the two crossed their sticks together.

"There is a saying about life and death. Flashing to the door of life means avoiding the force point of the enemy's stick, and walking towards the door of death means throwing oneself into the force point of the enemy's stick and throwing oneself into the net. ”

"When the opponent attacks with a stick, we must immediately determine which side is the door of life and which side we should dodge towards, and which side is the door of death and which side to avoid. This requires a lot of combat practice to form the body's muscle memory, allowing us to complete the dodge as quickly as possible in a subconscious state. ”

"Generally speaking, we can judge from the direction of the force point of the stick, then the two sides of the straight line where the tip of the enemy stick advances are the birth gate, and the direction of the arc emitted by the tip of the stick is the birth gate. In other words, if the enemy is stabbed from the front, you can dodge to both sides, and if the enemy is swept from one side, then the side that sends the power is the seimon. ”

In addition, the two sticks crossed, and the one on the top is called a raw stick, because the stick can attack the enemy freely and flexibly at this time, and the one that is pressed down is called a dead stick, because the stick is restrained and cannot attack freely. Therefore, the dead stick should take a defensive position, and when the enemy sends an offensive, use the principle of receiving and turning hair, and then counterattack with the situation. ”

"In the standoff phase, the tip of the stick should follow the opponent's dodge and retreat, and always make the opponent fall within the range of my stick tip circle. If the opponent is within a circle of less than one and a half feet in diameter at the tip of my stick, the opponent will always fall within the range of my circle, because the width of a normal person's chest is not more than one and a half feet. Vice versa. ”

"When fighting with sticks, it is necessary to consider the length of the two sticks, measure the distance, calculate the delay of the time, clarify the changes of the life and death sticks, the avoidance of the door of life and death, the advance and retreat of the old and tender sticks, the control of the force point, and the inside and outside of the return point can be retracted and released freely, and there is no danger. Mastering these talents can be regarded as learning excellent stick techniques, so that you can gain the opportunity in the fight and skillfully defeat the opponent. ”

And this is also the essence of the stick method. ”

"To put it bluntly, stick is a matter of brains rather than brute force. ”

Tang Wei patted Wei Lai's shoulder, looked at Wei Lai's soaked clothes, and his red and swollen hands, and said with appreciation in his eyes: "The end of the year is our family's big competition, and your cultivation also needs to be mentioned." Not to mention entering the middle and high stages of Ning Yuan, at least you have to break through Ning Yuan, otherwise you will be beaten down in the big competition, which will be too embarrassing!"

Wei Lai respectfully hugged his fists and promised: "Yes, grandfather!"
