Chapter 10: Apprenticeship in the Forbidden Forest
"Tut-tut, have you finally figured it out? are you going to worship me as a teacher?" The old man who claimed to be Lingzenzi looked at Meng Li and finally appeared in this dense night, and laughed loudly.
Meng Li looked at him, still so thin, and in the two sunken eye sockets, the essence in his eyes was bright, thinking that his spirit was still good today, and he said with confidence: "No, the juniors will send some food to the seniors!"
"What?" Ling Chanzi raised his eyebrows at the moment, and then flicked his sleeves and turned his back to Meng Li and expelled, "I'm still hungry and won't die, don't worry about you! If you don't come to apprentice, then let's go, don't disturb the old man's tranquility!"
He has reached the point where the sky is the house and the earth is the feast, but the old bones are still very hard, and he refuses to bow his head easily. Meng Li was a little at a loss, and hurriedly ran to him and said with a smile: "Senior, I brought a lot of delicious food, don't you want to take a look first?"
"Forgive me for not being blessed!" Ling Zenzi said unmoved.
"If I worship you as a teacher, will my martial arts really make great progress and defeat all the people I want to defeat?" Meng Li finally asked.
"That's natural, the disciples I trained have all been outstanding in the past!" Ling Chanzi saw that her heart was shaken, and she immediately straightened up and smiled.
"Then I would like to worship you as a teacher!" Meng Li immediately knelt down and said, and without waiting for Ling Chanzi to speak, he immediately slammed his forehead on the ground, and there were three heavy kowtows.
Seeing this, Ling Chanzi couldn't help but be overjoyed at the moment, and before Meng Li finished kowtowing, he leaned over and picked her up, said three "good!" words in a row, and then looked Meng Li in front of him up and down again. At that time, Meng Li was petite, with a pair of eyebrows and eyes on a pink carved face, which made the whole person delicate and very smart.
Ling Chanzi pinched her shoulder, and said with satisfaction at the moment: "What a good boy, this body is indeed a good material for martial arts." "He has won glory in this life, and has also experienced drastic changes in the sea of blood, and finally survived in this wilderness, accompanied by ghosts, fires, wild grass, wind, rain, thunder and snow, it can be described as a big ups and downs, and now he can get a dexterous disciple, which is enough to comfort one of the thousands of regrets in his life, and now he has many tears of anger in his eyes, and he is now crisscrossing the uneven face full of ravines.
"Master, I will definitely listen to you in the future and practice hard!" Meng Li said as if she was pointing to heaven and swearing when she saw him with tears in her eyes, and then she stood on tiptoe and handed the food basket to Ling Chanzi and said respectfully, "Can you eat now, Master?"
"What do you call me?" Ling Zenzi touched her head, excited.
"Master!" Meng Li said loudly, "You can eat, or it will be cold!"
"Okay!" Ling Zenzi immediately took her food basket, and the aroma of the food came to his nose, and he suddenly couldn't resist his appetite, so he didn't care about eating like a whirlwind.
"You can practice the kung fu you have learned in the past few days as a teacher, and I will find out the truth. Ling Zenzi said while eating.
"Obey, Master!" Meng Li immediately opened his posture and practiced all kinds of fist and foot skills he had learned in the barren grass one by one. She rarely pays attention to this on weekdays, and her kung fu is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but at the moment, she is concentrating on her practice for fear of making a mistake.
"The form is there, but the god doesn't, your basic skills are still lacking very much!" Ling Chanzi shook his head with a chicken bone on the ground, "Although the world's kung fu is fast and unbreakable, everyone has their own physical limits, and it is difficult to go to the next level by relying on the strength of the body alone, no matter how fast and fierce it is." Only when the inner family kung fu is cultivated to a certain extent, and the qi is controlled by the mind, can you do whatever you want, and you can do anything!" After speaking, he raised his hand, and the qi of the dantian bent down the middle finger and ring finger, gathered on the thumb, index finger, and little thumb on the three fingers of the thumb, index finger, and little thumb to break a little bit against a stone tablet in front of him, and at that moment the stone was "bang-" shattered, and turned into sand and gravel with the wind and scattered.
Meng Li's eyes were stunned, and Ling Chanzi retracted his finger strength and said: "This is Guiyuan Yiqi, specializing in breaking all kinds of gangqi, even if it is the golden bell cover iron cloth shirt of Shaolin Temple, I am afraid that I will be defeated when I meet my Guiyuan Yiqi! If it is transformed into the palm method, it can have the domineering power of the Vajra palm, if it is focused on the finger power, it can break all internal and external skills, and if it is hit with a fist, it can open the mountain and break stones!"
"Such internal strength is really amazing!" Meng Li exclaimed.
"Isn't it more than that?" Ling Zenzi said disdainfully, and then instructed, "In the future, you should only concentrate on practicing the Xuanmen martial arts taught by Jing Yi during the day, and I will teach you how to cultivate this internal martial arts when it gets dark." Today I'm going to teach you some simple martial arts moves, do you remember anything from the Five Fowl Fist just now?"
"Of course I remember, the first move is to have a phoenix, the second move is to control the phoenix and crane, then the eagle strikes the sky, the swallow leaps and the bird, and the last move is the flight of a thousand mountains and birds!" Meng Li immediately said like a few treasures.
"The important thing about the five bird boxing is not the fierceness of the fist in the hand, but the flexibility of the foot position, so that the five moves can be integrated and unpredictable!" After speaking, Ling Zenzi got up and walked the whole set of boxing methods, the pace was like a little bit of Luoying, light and elegant, when he walked, he carried enough internal force under his feet, and left footprints of different shades on the ground in a blink of an eye.
"You follow the footprints I left behind, and quickly go through this set of boxing techniques again!" Ling Zenzi said to Meng Li after walking.
Meng Li immediately stepped on the footprints left by Ling Chanzi on the ground and re-practiced the boxing technique a few times, feeling much more handy than before, Ling Zenzi asked her to speed up her pace behind her, and she immediately accelerated her speed and walked back and forth. She proudly re-punched the whole set of boxing techniques, and sure enough, the moves and moves, the boxing between fists was no longer so rigid and stiff, and it became flexible and changeable.
Ling Chanzi pointed out his deficiencies one by one from the side, Meng Li practiced hard for a long time, and when he arrived at the martial arts field on weekdays, he complained bitterly, and this time he was already sweating but still refused to stop. Ling Chanzi was very demanding of her, and he never let her stop and rest, until the whole set of boxing techniques was rejuvenated under his guidance, and he slightly asked Meng Li to stop and take a breath.
"Your understanding is really good, but only this boxing skillful is not smart, there are still many Achilles heels in this boxing, and I will break this boxing method to tell you, you are optimistic, know each other and know yourself to be completely familiar with this set of boxing. After speaking, his figure shook and said: "If someone uses this trick to hit you with Feng Laiyi, you can use my trick to fight back with the dragon and phoenix. After speaking, the body trembled like a swimming dragon, and the routines in his hands sealed the fist of "You Feng Laiyi" from the top, middle and bottom three ways, Meng Li found that this move could really restrain it to death, and the last leap was a defeat after dismantling.
"Like a tiger with wings, this move arbitrarily controls the fist of the phoenix and crane!" After speaking, he punched the tiger down the mountain as majestic, no matter how exquisite the phoenix crane was, it was impossible to escape the tiger's claws. Then he rehearsed the rest of the dragons and leopards, dragons and lions, and white clouds alone, and rehearsed them one by one, and Meng Li was dazzled and dizzy.
When Meng Li went through it according to the style of play of Ling Zenzi, he found that although these five moves were restrained with the five bird boxing, but the shadows of the five bird boxing were all fallen between the moves, and the martial arts of the world were mixed, but all of them had their own shortcomings, this set of boxing methods evolved from its deficiencies, and then restrained each other, leaving no room for each other, although the two restrained each other but responded to each other, it can be said that they are mutually restrictive. If it weren't for the in-depth exploration of this set of boxing techniques for decades, how could they have discovered the unknown mysteries in it? Meng Li now admired this new master's obsession and exploration of martial arts, far more than those who only blindly teach in the usual days, they think they are masters of Xuanmen and never have any doubts about their own martial arts, what is the improvement of such old-fashioned martial arts?
After Meng Li learned these five sets of boxing techniques to restrain the five bird fists, she saw that she was already more exposed, and she was a little reluctant to think about tomorrow's lesson, but she had to let her go back. Meng Li recognized him as a master on the first day, and when he was like a relative, he thought that he would let him stay in the wilderness with the ruins and broken walls as his companion, and he was reluctant to give up.
"After you go back, don't mention the name of the master to anyone, when I was young, I offended many fellow disciples in the Xuanmen, their kung fu is not as good as my scheming but very deep, and then I fell into trouble and they wished I died, now they are already respected figures in the Xuanmen, once they know the relationship between you and my master and apprentice, the master will not be able to live, and your life is afraid that it will be difficult. Ling Chanzi explained carefully to Meng Li.
"I know Master, I must be tight-lipped about the affairs of you and my master and apprentice, and I will never let the second person know that they will harm you!" Meng Li said, the enemies of Lingzenzi are all those highly respected masters in the Xuanmen, and they probably can't imagine that the people they are afraid of are still alive in the world, if they learn that in order to cover up the unknown civil strife in the Xuanmen in the past, they will definitely come to kill people and kill people.
"The martial arts taught by the master must be familiar with your heart, although you have a high level of understanding, but you are not patient enough, you have to practice more when there is no one, so that you can succeed!" Ling Chanzi did not forget what he was most worried about, Meng Li's martial arts.
"Master, don't worry, old man, since I have worshipped you as a teacher, I will work hard in the future, and when I have the ability, I will take you out of this place, and I will never let you live so miserable again!" Meng Li said in a sweet voice, but it was solemn.
"Good apprentice, good boy!" Ling Chanzi couldn't help but shed a few tears on his chest when he heard this.
"Master, you wait for me to bring you something delicious tomorrow!" Meng Li picked up the food basket on the ground, turned around and said obediently, Ling Chanzi looked at her small figure and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest in a blink of an eye, and was a little reluctant at the moment, thinking that in the future, with this little apprentice with her, her mood suddenly brightened up a lot.
