CHAPTER XX
Li Tianya, who heard this past, also sighed in his heart for a long time, not only for the spirit of his ancestors, but also for the actions of the four factions, why can't everyone get along well and contribute to the Tang Empire together, Li Tianya really can't figure it out. However, when he heard Li Xianhe's words again, he understood everything: "Young man, although our sect emphasizes moral cultivation over martial cultivation, and attaches great importance to the character of the disciples, you must understand a truth, that is, what powerful people say is the truth, since you have chosen this path, don't think about living the life of an ordinary person, people with weak strength will be looked down upon wherever they go, not to mention individuals, even the sect is the same." The tragedy of two hundred years ago is a living example, that is, the four factions are not doing nothing, but they will never be able to raise their heads in front of my sect master, so they will be resentful, and when this emotion accumulates to a certain extent, they will begin to resist, you understand!" I see, is this what the books say about the law of the jungle?" Therefore, once you embark on the path of cultivation, it means that you have chosen endless struggle, and you have chosen a life of eternal peace." Elder, it's not so exaggerated, as long as I don't offend people, how can others provoke me for no reason, not to mention that the purpose of our martial arts practice is not to help the world? How do you feel so different from what you said?" Li Tianya also felt that if the outside world was really as the elder said, then he really had to improve his strength as soon as possible, so that he would not be slaughtered by others after he went out, after thinking about it, Li Tianya said to Li Xianhe seriously, "With more elder's teachings, Tianya will definitely train wholeheartedly for himself and for the people who care for and love me" "It's good to understand, you go back and rest quickly, and you will continue tomorrow morning" "That disciple has retired"
When he returned to his residence, he saw several brothers discussing swordsmanship together, Li Tianya also leaned over and listened carefully, and after listening for a while, he found that their thoughts were very different from his own understanding, so he also interjected, "Your understanding is a little problematic" So he said his understanding of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique, and after speaking, he found that the three people in front of him were looking at him with strange eyes, so he asked carefully, "Could it be that what I said is the problem?" Tianya, you are too talented, we have discussed for a long time, but we have not had a unified understanding, but what you just said, I think it is very incisive and thorough, which made me suddenly wake up" Liu Chenghuan said, "Yes, Tianya, I usually see you don't practice swordsmanship very much, but I feel that you are very familiar with this swordsmanship, can you tell me how you did it?" Wen Ruqing also echoed, listening to the words of the two, Li Tianya was also happy in his heart, but he didn't show it, but said seriously" Martial arts, time is secondary, comprehension is the most important, comprehension, do you understand? haha" When several people heard this, they invariably threw away a look of searching, but Li Tianya was right, comprehension is the most important, as long as you comprehend it properly, it will be smooth sailing when you practice, otherwise, it is not. Li Tianya saw that a few people didn't speak, so he continued, "Tell you seriously, if you practice any kind of martial arts, you can't be too hasty with *, you must take one step at a time, steady and steady, don't be greedy and aggressive, otherwise the foundation is unstable, and the road in the future will be very bumpy" This remark made several people stunned, this is like the words that a young man who has just turned sixteen years old can say, with such doubts, Zhou Buqun opened his mouth and asked, "Tianya, who told you these words, don't tell us that you realized it yourself" "It's still the eldest brother who is well-informed, and he can see the problem at a glance, and I don't hide it from everyone, these truths are all troubles I encountered a few days ago, so I went to Elder Li Xianhe to ask, he told me, and also told me that when practicing, we must pay attention to the heart method, the heart method is the foundation of all martial arts, and the sword moves that are separated from the guidance of the heart law will appear very floating, without any aura, so we all don't worry about what sword techniques to study in the future, let's get the Qingxin record thoroughly first." I see, it seems that we have been doing useless work all this time, good for you, since you know this truth, why didn't you tell us earlier, it caused us to waste so much time in vain" Liu Chenghuan scolded angrily. "It's not that I don't say it, I didn't know you well before, if I say it, you don't believe it, and even say that I talk nonsense, then I'm not wronged, I got married to you last night, the situation is different, so I'll tell you all these things today, is it also to blame me?" "No blame, no blame, it's too late for us to thank you, it's not too late now, it's only a few days in the past, it's still a long time before the entry competition, as long as we practice hard, I believe we will definitely get good results by then" Wen Ruqing explained. "I'm improving my physical strength during this time, I may rarely be in the room during the day, and I can only have time to go back to the room at night, if you have any questions, you can always look for me, I'll help you ask Elder Li" "What do you do to improve your strength, sword moves are all about skills, and the strength is very chicken" "The third move of the Wind Chasing Sword Method has particularly high requirements for strength, and if you want to learn it well, you must have strong strength, so" So that's the case, in this case, how about we also train with you, everyone is together, and we won't be so lonely, what do you say?" "This, let's wait for you to see it tomorrow and then make a decision, that kind of training method is not something that ordinary people can bear, I have wanted to give up many times, in short, it's not that I don't agree to you, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to accept it" "Don't scare us, you can stand it, why can't we stand it?" As soon as Liu Chenghuan heard this, he swore and said, "There's no point in talking more, you can go with me tomorrow to have a look, let's do it tonight, see you tomorrow morning" After speaking, Li Tianya and Byte went back to the room and lay straight on the bed, and after a while, there were bursts of snoring in the room!
The next day, the four of them came to the head chef early, and after Li Tianya adjusted his psychology, he began the morning training. Seeing that Li Tianya's training was to carry water, Liu Chenghuan and Zhou Buqun on the side also joked, "Tianya also looks down on us too much, and actually said that he is afraid that we will not be able to bear it" "I don't think I look down on us, but I am afraid that if we also come to pick, the chef's water will not run out" After speaking, both of them laughed, only Wen Ruqing, who had always been Sven on the side, said seriously, "Don't laugh, let's take a look at the situation first" The two who laughed did not object, but they were still watching with a smile, and there was no reaction at first, but when Li Tianya slowly walked from a distance with the fourteenth load of water, several people couldn't help but admire, it turned out that this training was not about the intensity, but about the length, looking at Li Tianya, whose legs were trembling a little, Wen Ruqing said on the side, "Tianya won't have anything to do, I think he seems to be dying, or we persuade him to stop practicing, it's a big deal that the third form is not learned, and it's not a big deal." Let's take a look!" replied Zhou Buqun. Two hours later, Li Tianya finally completed the first task, looking at the time, his heart was also a burst of joy, compared to yesterday, he was half an hour faster, but this point did not make him satisfied, put down the bucket, he said a few words to a few brothers, and then walked towards the back mountain, Zhou Buqun and the three of them also followed behind him, to see what else, just arrived at the back mountain, and yesterday's Li Tianya, several people were also shocked by a firewood mountain in front of them, but did not come forward to ask too much, just looked at Li Tianya, watched him carry the firewood back step by step, and then came again, and carried the weight back, again, after dozens of back and forth, The hill in front of them has become a flat land, and the hearts of several people are extremely shocked at this time, both shocked by his endurance, but also incredible by his speed, looking at the exhausted Li Tianya, several people also stepped forward and cared, "Tianya, are you okay, let's go, let's go back, what kind of bird training is not interesting, it is purely a pit man's thing" Li Tianya did not answer this question, but asked rhetorically, "How about it?" As soon as this question came out, several people were immediately stunned, especially Liu Chenghuan, who swore last night, was very embarrassed at this time, and didn't know how to answer, Li Tianya saw that a few people did not answer, and also learned from Li Xianhe and said, "Martial arts practitioners, don't be indecisive, don't retreat in the face of difficulties, don't be untrustworthy" and then looked at the three of them with a smile, listening to Li Tianya say this, Zhou Buqun took the lead in responding, "Since the Tianya brothers have said so, what else do we have to hesitate, I'll take the lead as a big brother, and I'll train with my brothers from tomorrow" Seeing that Zhou Buqun was so free and easy, the other two didn't want to say anything more, just nodded silently, Li Tianya saw this, and said loudly, "Well, from now on, the four of us brothers will train together, advance and retreat together, and work hard for the ideals in our hearts."
In the afternoon training, several people still followed Li Tianya, although the more they looked at it, the more scared they became, but the wood was already in the boat, and a few people did not have too many ideas, but they just changed how to do it themselves, so that they could be fast and good, in the evening, the four of them walked on the way back to the room, Li Tianya looked very tired, and the faces of the other four people were also full of worries, they were not worried about Li Tianya, but about themselves - can they hold on tomorrow? No one has a bottom in their hearts.
Early the next morning, the four teenagers walked in the morning light, their faces were full of confident smiles, last night after a few people went back and discussed for a long time, Li Tianya told several brothers about his experience in the past two days and Li Xianhe's advice to himself, hoping that they can persevere, do not give up halfway, after everyone returned to the room, they thought a lot, and finally made up their minds, they must do a good job, after all, everyone's family situation is very bad, you must rely on yourself, only if you are strong, your family will have a bright day, only if you are strong, you will not be bullied, only if you are strong, you can have a colorful life。 When a few people came to the head chef, it made Senior Brother Luo not know what to do, before Li Tianya carried water and firewood alone, which was just enough for the head chef to use, but now if there are four people, where does the head chef need so much water and firewood, and in a short time, it can be accumulated and used slowly, but I don't know how long this training will last, when the head chef can pile up so many things, just when he is in trouble, Li Xianhe came," Carry water, carry firewood or do it quite far, a few other people will go to the back mountain with me, in the morning, in the afternoon to carry stones, although Kenneng will feel very boring, but for the sake of today's plan can only be like this" Although several people are not very satisfied, but since Li Xianhe said so, they had to respond "um", so the three of them followed Li Xianhe to leave first, leaving Li Tianya alone in the head chef, preparing for the morning training.
After two days of training, Li Tianya is now doing very smoothly, although he still feels very tired, but compared with the first day, it is much easier, he even recalled the content of the Qingxin Lu while carrying water, in order to be able to capture the qi as soon as possible, Qingxin Lu Wu Guo, he continued to silently practice the wind chasing sword technique in his heart, although he couldn't make any movements, but he also tried to remember the moves of the sword technique clearly in his heart. In less than two hours, Li Tianya completed the first training task, thinking about his current achievements, his heart is also a burst of joy, like this, sooner or later one day he will complete the transformation, carrying firewood is also two quarters of an hour earlier than yesterday, so that Li Tianya saw hope, but also increased confidence, the most important thing is that today's physical fatigue is not very serious, after carrying firewood to see the hour is still early, but also went to the back mountain to see the training of several other people, looking at the painful expressions on the faces of several people, Li Tianya felt mixed with joy and sorrow, sad is the miserable fate of several people, happy is that several people can work together in such a situation, common progress。 After a while, several people completed the morning's tasks, everyone was exhausted, paralyzed on the ground, and didn't want to take one more step at all, but just sat down for a few minutes, Li Xianhe urged, "After doing strenuous exercise, you can't rest for a long time, hurry up, and adjust your body while walking" In desperation, several people supported each other and rushed back, everyone just wanted to sleep well now, and didn't want to do anything else. When they were separated, Li Xianhe did not forget to explain, "Don't forget to practice when you rest, summarize the truth through training, don't think that strength is brute force, everything is about skills, you go back and ponder carefully."
In the afternoon, a few people set off very reluctantly, although they encouraged themselves in their hearts more than a thousand times, but when they really want to play, there are always a few complaints, they thought that martial arts talent is the most important, as long as their comprehension is strong, cultivation can be a matter of course, but they are wrong, talent is important, but there is no wholehearted dedication, no selfless practice, no firm belief, in the martial arts is destined to always be a nameless junior, slaughtered, thinking about their own purpose of entering the sect, thinking about their lofty goals, the four of them glanced at each other, encouraged each other, and then set off with high morale。 In view of what happened to Li Tianya, Li Xianhe also told them to take their time, not to be impatient, even if it takes a long time, to ensure their own safety, the body is the capital, because Li Tianya has trained for two days, so he always walks in front of several people, Zhou Buqun and others are not in a hurry, as long as they are not too far behind Li Tianya. Back and forth, day after day, the stones on several people are getting bigger and bigger, but the increased weight is not very obvious, four people, perseverance. Unknowingly, several people have been training in the back mountain for a month, during which Li Tianya also told Xie Piaoran about his training, and Xie Piaoran is also very sensible, knowing that Li Tianya must not be disturbed, so he went to practice alone and never looked for Li Tianya. One day, Li Xianhe said to the four of them, "Let's test your training results, as long as you pass, you can go back and study the swordsmanship, if not, you have to continue to persevere, until you pass the test, the way of testing is very simple, as long as you carry the stones behind you, you can reach the top of the mountain in half an hour, you can pass the level, so let's start." When several people heard this, their hearts were very happy, it seemed that this boring training was finally coming to an end, but the four of them did not relax, after all, they had not passed the test, several people strode forward, picked up the stones, and heard Li Xianhe's order, so they rushed forward quickly, like a hungry tiger seeing delicious food, desperate, from beginning to end everyone did not make any stops, the whole process was completed in one go, in less than five minutes, the four of them had already come to the top of the mountain, after putting down the stones, they ran to Li Xianhe, and then asked eagerly" Elder, have we passed?" Seeing the eager eyes of several people, Li Xianhe did not give an answer, but said earnestly, "You have to practice more after you come down, your current situation is not very ideal" Hearing this, the excited faces of the four people suddenly dimmed, and they all thought that they had not passed, Li Xianhe continued, "Since you have passed, you must use your strength well, use it accurately, and do not rely only on brute force" As soon as these words came out, several people jumped up excitedly, cheered, hugged, cried and laughed, and the mountain looked very lively for a while. Several people's faces showed the joy after the harvest, just like the birds that flew after a long time in the cage, enjoying this beautiful moment, a month of time, so that several people have undergone a washing of body and mind, they have gained not only a strong strength, but also understand that there is no free lunch in the world, if you want to succeed, you must rely on your own efforts, and at the same time, the relationship between several people is also stronger, and now it has become a friend who has nothing to say, brothers. After cheering for a while, several people finally left the back mountain and walked towards the residence, everyone talked and laughed, all talking about things that had nothing to do with training, when they were about to arrive at the door of the dormitory, Li Tianya suddenly asked, "How long is it until the entry competition", during this time, several people spent their energy on training, and they didn't care about the time at all, so they didn't know the specific day. Wen Ruqing replied seriously, "There should be less than two months left", "Less than two months, meaning that we have been training for a month?"
