Chapter 9 Trying the Knife
The old man tilted his head high, took a deep breath in the sky, exhaled a long time, and then lowered his head, and was silent for a long time, his eyelids blinking, as if there was something he could not let go of and had to let go. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Guan Qianjian remained silent with interest.
The old man gritted his teeth, finally raised his head, looked at Guan Qianjian with a firm gaze, and said, "Return the tiger wings to Liurumen for me." There is also a sword book, although it was not taken away by me, but it was also lost because of me, and now at Li Houde's place, you take it with you and return them to the owner. I should have taken care of this matter myself, but I really didn't want to have any more contact with this sword. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly, and as a reward, I'll pass you a swordsmanship. Do you think this deal can be done?"
Guan Qianjian shouted, "One move?!"
The old man said categorically: "Yes, it's a trick." ”
Guan Qianjian said: "At least pass on one more move, anyway, the things I will send you are also the same." ”
The old man laughed, "But you don't need to make two trips. ”
Guan Qianjian said: "Why bother with the tip of the needle, good things must come in pairs." ”
The old man said with a breath out of his nostrils: "You can say if you can make a deal." If you really don't want to, I'll find someone else. ”
Guan Qianjian immediately panicked, and shouted again and again: "I'm willing, I'm willing!" It's just that I'm worried, one trick is not enough, if it's just a bare person, with empty hands, no long things, nothing, no martial arts, I can still live a good life, but now I want to put such an important thing on me, in case someone comes to grab it, I can't beat others, except for respectful and respectful, isn't there no way at all?"
The old man said: "Be careful in everything, be cautious everywhere, who knows what you have on your body." Have you ever seen someone rob a beggar?"
Guan Qianjian said: "Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, just in case, in case ......"
The old man said angrily: "If you say another nonsense, it is useless to kneel down and beg me!"
Guan Qianjian quickly shut up and almost bit his tongue off the ground.
When the old man saw that a sentence had subdued him, his face softened, and he smiled and said, "That's right." Do you know why I only teach you one swordsmanship?"
"To answer your question, it's not nonsense, is it?"
"You just have to answer yes or no. ”
"Yes. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
Guan Qianjian was happy in his heart, if he didn't let him say these words, he would be sick. He poured beans into a bamboo bucket and said: "I guess there are several possibilities: first, you are a stingy person who refuses to make a loss-making deal; second, although you have a pair of discerning eyes, you have a bad eye this time, and you regard genius as a fool, so you are not willing to waste time on me; third, you are jealous of my talent, afraid that I will one day outperform you, and damage the reputation of a lifetime that you have worked so hard to earn; fourth, you are in a hurry to doze off and just want to send me away as soon as possible. ”
The more he heard him, the more outrageous it became, and he couldn't help laughing while lying in his chair, and only after he finished speaking, did he say: "I know that I am in a hurry to doze off, and I dare to talk so much nonsense! Let me tell you the truth, all my martial arts are just one move, and no matter how much I want, I have nowhere to steal." - You are not allowed to speak. - I know you won't believe it, but I don't have to explain it to you. I only ask you, can you write?"
Guan Qianjian pretended to be clever and said: "Could it be that your swordsmanship is derived from calligraphy...... Oh – I don't talk nonsense. He was glared at by the old man, so he had to take the initiative to admit his mistake and shrink his neck, and then said: "I can write, but I ......"
"Have you ever heard of the eight methods of the word 'Yong'?" the old man did not listen to his ramblings.
Guan Qianjian suddenly met the old man's gaze, his whole face was full of excitement, "I understand!" he shouted, "Your only sword is like this Yongzi, learn this sword well, all the moves in the world will not deviate from its ......"
"Shut up!" the old man bounced up from his chair like a bent piece of paper, and said furiously, "You know everything! You are the smartest! Why do you still ask me to teach you? Why don't you create it yourself? Do you think you really understand ?......"
Guan Qianjian's face was flushed when he was scolded, but he couldn't speak, and it was really difficult to guess why the old man was so angry, even if he was wrong, it wouldn't be like this. He lowered his head and said, "It's me who said nonsense, I said it wrong......"
The old man waved his hand and shouted: "You are not wrong! You are very right! But now I am teaching you, not you teaching me, please make it clear, I didn't tell you to shut up! Otherwise, I will not only cancel the transaction at any time, but also take your life." ”
Guan Qianjian said: "Yes, yes, yes!"
The old man glared at him silently for a long time before he gradually became angry, and said in a normal tone: "My swordsmanship has no door, no sect, no sect and no source, so I have to use the name of 'Tian'." What is a day?"
Guan Qianjian's neck shrank, and he didn't say a word, secretly thinking: "I don't dare to answer." ”
Fortunately, the old man didn't ask him, and he continued: "If you really want to make achievements in swordsmanship, remember the following words word for word." The highest and greatest is the heavens, which cannot be poor for thousands of miles, and cannot be endless, endless, endless, and endless......."
Guan Qianjian silently recited in his heart: "What is Heaven? The Supreme One is the ...... of Heaven."
The old man continued: "The sword is a weapon of martial arts, and the way of the sword is the way of martial arts. The way of martial arts lies in exertion. When you meet on a narrow road, you win. The force is used, one is clever, the other is strong. Those who are clever are smart, and those who are strong are dominant. Skillful, can be channeled, up to the sky. At the beginning, there is a day, and then there is no day. There is a heaven that is the heaven of the sky, and the sky of the sky is the heaven outside the sky. The sword of the heavenless is formed, I am for my sky, and I am for the outer sky. ”
When the old man finished speaking, he smiled and seemed to be very satisfied with his words. Guan Qianjian stole a glance, and scolded in his heart: "The dead old man is really moody, who is unlucky if he is his apprentice!"
"Go and break a branch. The old man opened his mouth and frightened Qianjian again, and he rushed forward two steps, only to remember that there was a tree behind him, and hurriedly turned his head. He tried to choose a long, thin and straight branch, folded it into the length of a sword, picked the leaves cleanly, carried it with both hands, and bowed down to the old man.
The old man was very unimpressed by his sudden change of such rules, snorted and took the branch and said, "Look carefully, I can only teach once, and how much I can learn depends on your 'cleverness'." ”
Guan Qianjian stepped aside, cheering up his spirits, his eyes bulging like copper bells, his gaze enveloped Fang Yuanzhang's rest, and he didn't dare to take a breath.
The old man's wrist sank, and the branches as thin as chopsticks trembled out a "buzzing" sound, like a big tree facing the wind, and within a few zhang around, the grass and trees were lurking, and the birds were frightening.
Guan Qianjian couldn't help but scratch his ears, swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, the muscles on his face ran up and down, left and right, and his footsteps moved forward a few points unconsciously.
The old man turned around and shouted, "What are you doing!" Raising his eyes and seeing his ecstatic look, he didn't say anything, raised his elbow and stepped backwards, and began to demonstrate his sword moves.
Every one of his movements was ordinary, like the introductory moves of all sects, at a glance, and there was no mystery at all. Looking at his thoughtful, solemn and solemn appearance, Guan Qianjian almost couldn't help laughing.
"Hit, intercept, stab, tease, split, split, grid, belt, press ......" Every time he struck, it was accompanied by a fierce thud, and every sword came out with the sound, and the sound stopped the sword and never dragged the mud and water. It wasn't until the thirteen swords were finished that he stopped, and he put on a closing pose, and his clothes were still floating.
"Do you see clearly?" the old man handed out the branch.
"See clearly. Guan Qianjian took the branch.
The old man sneered again, and said contemptuously: "Come out and take a look." ”
Guan Qianjian endured the pain on his arm, drew a gourd in the same way, gestured in his hand, his footsteps turned, and his mouth shouted: "Hit, intercept, stab, ......tease" After the thirteen swords were finished, the wound burst open, and the blood soaked through the two arms. But every time he handed out a style, he tried to reach the strength of the sword, and he had both form and spirit, and he did not endure the pain at all. He stood solemnly and waited for the old man to scold.
"I can't see that you're really a bit outstanding. The old man said this, then took the branch and said, "Although you have memorized the moves, you still don't know the trick of exerting force. Just like this blow, it lies in pulling out the back with the chest, loosening the waist and moving the wrists, sinking the dantian, and the force is from the spine and poured into the arm, so that the five fingers, so that the pores ,—— hit!" Guan Qianjian listened to his dismantling, and suddenly felt that what seemed to be a simple action actually contained infinite mystery and great exquisiteness.
Once he has this realization, he will be out of control, carefully pondering each sword, sometimes staring at each other, sometimes opening his eyes and laughing, sometimes talking to himself...... Completely enter the realm of forgetting things and self. The old man showed good patience at this time, watched quietly from the side, and every time Guan Qianjian made a mistake, he stood up and demonstrated again, giving detailed instructions.
After a long time, he saw that Guan Qianjian had comprehended everything that he should have comprehended, and the rest had to be practiced by thousands of hammers, so he said: "Do you remember what I just said about the eight methods of the word 'Yong'? The same is true for swordsmanship, my move is a heavenly sword, including six directions, thirteen styles, heaven and earth, forward and backward, looking left and right, omnipresent, all-encompassing, if you can learn fine, all the swordsmanship in the world can be used by me. ”
Guan Qianjian nodded.
The old man said, "I'll teach you the method of meditating and practicing qi and condensing your true power." "I recited the key to internal strength twice and taught him to use it.
One of the two was devoted, the other was serious, and half a day had passed in an instant, and Guan Qianjian had finally mastered a set of profound internal strength secret methods.
In the end, the old man said proudly: "My method of practicing qi is different from others, others can only practice for a few hours a day, and more is useless, I have a unique secret, I can work day and night, without sleep, and practice diligently." ”
Guan Qianjian rarely didn't open his mouth for so long, and he couldn't hold it back for a long time, so he shouted: "Don't sleep?
The old man's face was uncertain, his head shook like a wave drum, and he scolded, "Get out! ”
Guan Qianjian took the sword, but refused to leave, and said with a dead face: "Don't you want me to return a sword book to others?"
The old man said: "Yes, this sword book is "Liuru", at Li Houde's place, you go and get it yourself, and return it together with the sword." ”
Guan Qianjian was puzzled: "You don't know what kind of person Li Houde is, do you think, can he listen to me? I blatantly asked him for a sword book, and it would be strange if he didn't kill me! Even if I report your name, he may not be willing to believe it, and I think it is inevitable that you will go on a trip in person." ”
The old man rolled his eyes, forced his eyes to look at Guan Qianjian and said, "After you leave, if my whereabouts are leaked, I will chase you to the ends of the earth and kill you!"
Guan Qianjian said: "I understand, you don't want me to talk to anyone about you." But then again, it doesn't have to be that my whereabouts leaked out of me. ”
The old man said: "I can't control this, if you don't get out now, do you still have to wait for my reward?"
Guan Qiandao: "No. Isn't that a problem still unsolved?"
The old man said: "My martial arts are taught by Bai, could it be that my 'Heavenly Sword Six Directions' can't even deal with a mere Li Houde?"
Guan Qianjian felt that this was a bit like playing house, he had just learned a few fake swordsmanship, so he went to touch the old fat man's tiger butt and grabbed food in his mouth, if the surname Li really raised his hand to surrender, and took out the sword book and asked him to laugh, it would be strange if he was not playing with him. It's a pity that the old fat man is not so interested.
But he didn't dare to say anything in front of the old man, and he calculated in his heart that he would go back and find a few people to practice his hands first, and then he could beat them down, otherwise it would take ten days and a half months. So he reluctantly replied, "Oh...... Got it. ”
The old man was so shrewd that when he looked at his eyebrows, he guessed that he had his own opinions. "Don't think I don't know the little Jiujiu in your heart, you want to be very sure before going to him, right?"
Guan Qianjian raised his head, his eyes seemed to be firmly held down, he couldn't move, and his mouth was open as if he was about to perform a long sword.
It took a long time to speak: "What do I think, how can you know everything?"
The old man said, "You must get things done today, otherwise, I will come and take everything, including those that belong to me and those that don't, such as your life." ”
Guan Qianjian broke out in a cold sweat, thinking, how can he feel like getting on the thief ship by mistake? Hengzhu is a death, not as good as a **** mother! This time he roared: "Okay!" turned around and left.
