Chapter 025: The Reality of the Western Regions
The biggest difference between Xu Yi's cultivation of internal strength and others is that he does not need to absorb the energy between heaven and earth, but only needs to digest the energy accumulated in his body, which is enough to make his internal strength grow far faster than others. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The biggest advantage of info is that you don't need to spend too much mind, you just need to control the operation of the inside and outside the body. While others have to stop and rest for an hour of cultivation, otherwise it will damage their spirits, but they can meditate for two or three hours without getting too tired.
Two hours later, Xu Yi opened his eyes and ended this cultivation. He found that after a long period of exercise and a lot of exercise, the efficiency of cultivating internal force would be much higher than usual. In just these two hours, I cultivated about 20% more internal strength than usual, which was much stronger than burying my head in penance.
"Senior Brother Xu, why have you been cultivating for so long? If it weren't for the fear of disturbing you and causing something to go wrong, I would have been ready to wake you up! Cultivating internal strength should be hard, but not too much, otherwise it will only backfire. It turned out that Liuyun saw that Xu Yi had been cultivating and couldn't help but remind him.
Xu Yi smiled, "Okay, I'll pay attention." ”
Seeing that he didn't take his words to heart, Liuyun hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Xu, cultivating internal strength is not something that can be achieved overnight, and it consumes a lot of energy. The most reasonable way is to cultivate internal strength for an hour and rest for an hour. Your penance like this will only cause unnecessary damage to your spirit. ”
Xu Yi saw Liuyun's serious attitude and concerned eyes, and his heart couldn't help but warm. He had just entered the Xiaoyao Pavilion, and if there was anything he didn't understand on weekdays, Liuyun instructed him, and Liuyun treated Xu Yi like a family. Of course, this is due to the atmosphere of Xiaoyao Pavilion, but Liuyun's heart is indeed benevolent.
"Okay, I'll pay attention to it later!" Xu Yi said solemnly, and then asked: "Tell me about light skills, I still only know a little bit about it." ”
Seeing his solemn agreement, Liuyun smiled and said: "Light Gong is actually very simple to say, just let the internal force stimulate the foot muscles through different modes of operation, or spray out the acupuncture points of the feet, so as to achieve the purpose of speeding up or increasing the height of the jump." Like the best light kung fu in our Xiaoyao Pavilion, it is called chasing the stars and chasing the moon, practicing to the high depths, and the eaves and walls are just ordinary. ”
After half an hour, Liuyun was explaining light skills to Xu Yi, Xu Yi is now also a disciple of Xiaoyao Pavilion, and Liuyun has no scruples, and has explained all kinds of light skills in the sect. And the focus is on the method of chasing stars and chasing the moon that he said before, which is also the light skill practiced by Liuyun.
The reason why this light skill is called chasing the stars and chasing the moon is because it can significantly increase the speed and jump of the practitioner. Practice to the depths of the height, one step out is three or four zhang more than ten meters, five or six zhang high wall can also be crossed with just a slight jump. According to Liuyun, the best person in the sect who cultivated this light skill was Sun Yun, who only needed to use a knife to climb the highest ice peak in the mountain behind Xiaoyao Pavilion.
The ice peak was facing the ice cave, Xu Yi had already seen it, and it was almost straight up and down without any slope. Moreover, the surface is covered with a thick layer of ice, and ordinary people cannot climb it even if they borrow climbing tools.
Until midnight, Liuyun was explaining to Xu Yi the cultivation methods and precautions of chasing stars and moons, so that Xu Yi could have a comprehensive understanding before practicing light skills.
There was nothing to say all night, and by dawn the next day, the disciples had already gotten up and started their morning exercises. This is a habit they have developed in the Pavilion, and it will not change because they are out. It wasn't until about eight o'clock that the female disciples began to prepare breakfast.
Breakfast is simple, porridge made from jerky and wheat grains, served with pickles. While everyone was having breakfast, four knights, one man and two horses, galloped over from afar.
No one was on guard, but Liu Xuan greeted him and said a few words to the knight at the head. After asking about the intentions, he brought them to Ji Canghai.
"We have sent you a letter on the orders of our chiefs. The knight respectfully handed a letter to Ji Canghai.
Ji Canghai took the letter, and after reading it, he said, "I know, you go and rest first." Then he stopped talking to a few knights.
Liu Xuan understood, took the four of them to breakfast, and arranged for them to find a place to rest. When Liu Xuan came back after arranging, Liuyun immediately asked, "Senior Brother Liu, who are these people?"
Liu Xuan said with a smile: "This is Senior Brother Heiyun's subordinates, who were sent by Senior Uncle Wei Chi to deliver the letter, I don't know what the specific content is." ”
"Senior Brother Heiyun's subordinates, will Senior Brother Heiyun also come back this time?"
"Yes, it is a coincidence that Uncle Wei Chi's clansmen are hiding in the territory of Senior Brother Heiyun. This time, Senior Uncle Wei Chi brought his clansmen over, and Senior Brother Heiyun would definitely come back with him. ”
The exchange between Liuyun and Li Xuan, Xu Yi was confused, and Liu Xuan hurriedly explained: "This black cloud is a gang of horse thieves in the Western Regions, and he is the personal disciple of Uncle Wei Chi. ”
Liu Xuan didn't say that it was okay, but Xu Yi was even more strange when he said this. "Aren't we Xiaoyao Pavilion famous and decent? Why do some disciples become horse thieves?
Liu Xuan said with a smile: "In the land of the Western Regions, horse thieves are not a disgraceful profession. Half of the lords of the city here are horse thieves, but they have been whitewashed ashore. What's more, the merchants who come and go in the entire Western Regions are all Hu merchants, Uighurs, and Khitan merchants, but there are no Han people from the Song Kingdom, so what about robbing!"
Maybe it's because of the concept.,Xiaoyao Pavilion doesn't have so many dogmas.,And the entire sect is basically composed of Han people or Sinicized people.。 They are not only bound by the etiquette of the Han people, but also have the heroic and uninhibited race of the Western Regions. In the sect, they can respect their teachers and love their fellow disciples, and externally they can also adapt to the law of the jungle and respect the strong. It may seem a bit contradictory, but it's actually more adapted to the land.
The horse thief is a characteristic product of the Western Regions, and although the Xiaoyao Pavilion is transcendent and self-sufficient, it cannot really be without foreign exchanges. The horse thieves played such a role very well, and the lack of salt, fur and cloth and other materials in the Pavilion could be solved through them.
For example, the king of the Uighur Khanate, who was a powerful group of horse thieves in the Western Regions, relied on his powerful army to eventually establish a state. In the Uighur Khanate, the king did not care about the life and death of the people in the territory at all, as long as someone paid taxes to him, which is also the reason why the countries of the Western Regions did not have a century-old national fortune, this is the reality of the Western Regions.
Xu Yi subconsciously couldn't accept this kind of behavior, but he didn't blame this kind of thing. Existence is reasonable, and since Xiaoyao Pavilion has done this, he has his reason.
After breakfast, Ji Canghai gathered a group of disciples and said, "Senior Brother Wei Chi will be able to get here in the evening, you should prepare in advance." We are likely to confront or even fight the Khitan defenders in Hami. No matter how I save my life, I hope that when I go back, there will be no one less!"
"Yes!"
With a neat shout, the faces of the disciples did not show a look of fear, but instead rubbed their fists one by one, looking very excited about the upcoming battle.
Ji Canghai looked at everyone's expressions, obviously very satisfied, as a martial artist, you must have the blood of a martial artist. The ultimate purpose of learning martial arts is to use it in battle, and if you show cowardice in the face of battle, then you are not worthy of being a disciple of Xiaoyao Pavilion. Moreover, the object of the battle is the Khitans, and the Great Song Dynasty is a natural enemy, and he will not have a burden in his heart if he kills no matter how much he kills.
