Chapter 431: A Sword Shocking (Part II)
After Feng Mu got up, because of the internal force input by the old man and his self-adjustment, it didn't take long for him to return to normal. But the clothes on his body were still wet, and he was still a little uncomfortable to wear.
In the past, he must have been unable to help coughing, but after these years of cultivation, his physical fitness has improved very quickly, and with the assistance of internal force, it is not a big problem. The old man seemed to be a little unbearable, and slashed the tree trunk in his hand towards the stone wall, and suddenly there was a smell of burning.
In this cave, firewood had already been prepared, and the old man quickly rubbed the trunk on the dry wood, and the flames rose. The cave that was originally dim was suddenly illuminated by the light of the fire.
Feng Mu looked at the surrounding mountain walls, there were no martial arts moves and mental techniques he imagined, he lowered his head in some disappointment, hurriedly ran to the fire, took off his clothes outside, and roasted them seriously beside the fire.
The old man shook his head and said to Feng Mu: "Give me your clothes, and I'll help you dry them." ”
Feng Mu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't dare to bother your seniors, I'll handle my own affairs." ”
"Don't get me wrong, the reason why I say this is because you can't bake the fire yet, meditate on the stone bed over there, and rely on your internal strength to resist the cold. ”
The old man said slowly, Feng Mu couldn't help but be stunned, he couldn't guess what the old man was planning, Wang Shouren said that his little uncle was only in his early fourteens, but Feng Mu looked at the old man in front of him, his appearance was almost old, how should this be explained?
Feng Mu called him Uncle Xiao before, but was stopped by the old man, the old man didn't admit it, Feng Mu felt that it was a little awkward to call, so he called him senior again, the old man who was full of vicissitudes, so he didn't object.
At the request of the old man, Feng Mu had to reluctantly leave the fire, walked to the boulder, sat down cross-legged, and meditated according to the cultivation method of Shushan. He knew that the old man wanted to improve his internal strength, and when he used his strength to resist the cold, because of resisting the power of nature, his internal strength could be quickly improved.
After a while, Feng Mu's body felt more and more warm, although he was not very familiar with Shushan's Lihuo Gong, but when he exercised it, he used the basic cultivation method of Lihuo Gong, combined with what he had learned before, and it actually had a good effect. The old man took advantage of the firelight to look at Feng Mu calmly, and then nodded slightly.
Feng Mu ran the true qi in his body for a week, and now he is running for a week for a short time, after the run, Feng Mu slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly felt refreshed, as if he turned into a warm spring wind, wandering between heaven and earth, unrestrained.
After Feng Mu fully woke up, the old man said: "You practiced swords before, and it can be regarded as a first glimpse of the way, so let's talk about what the realm of swordsmanship is." ”
Feng Mu thought for a while, and said: "The realm of sword practice is nothing more than three layers, when a young man practices sword, because he can't leave behind his fame and wealth, so when he fights with others, he wants to win, that is, he has a sword in his hand and a sword in his heart, the sword is his life, and through the sword he can get everything he wants." ”
The old man nodded and said: "People in the world, many people stay at this stage all their lives, just imagine who is not greedy for life and afraid of death, who does not want to get ahead?"
Feng Mu continued: "What the predecessors said is true, but the people who want to make progress in the martial arts are not some amazing and brilliant people, these people are no longer limited to themselves after some things, or with the guidance of masters, but have more important things that drive them to cultivate. At this time, their state of mind has changed, and they are no longer burdened by fame and fortune, and they can be intoxicated with swordsmanship, so at this time, it is the realm of no sword in their hands and a sword in their hearts, everything in heaven and earth can become his sword, flying flowers and falling leaves, all become sharp blades. ”
The old man nodded again and said: "You are young, you can't imagine that you still have such an understanding of kendo, if it is really your understanding, and without the guidance of your predecessors, you are really a genius in kendo." ”
Feng Mu shook his head embarrassedly and said, "The kid naturally can't have such a unique comprehension, there have already been seniors who have made such a summary, and the kid is just picking up people's teeth." ”
"Then tell me what kind of realm the third layer of kendo is. ”
Feng Mu looked at the old man, the fire next to him, the fire was burning, and suddenly there was a sound of Bibo, probably burning to the joints, Feng Mu was affected by that sound, and he immediately found that he was distracted, and he was a little embarrassed. Said to the old man: "The third layer of sword dao can be described as mysterious and mysterious, there is no sword in your hand, and there is no sword in your heart, it is the supreme sword way." ”
The old man listened to what Feng Mu said, smiled indifferently, and asked: "There is no sword in his hand, and there is no sword in his heart, according to what you said, the newborn children, those peddlers and pawns who have never practiced swordsmanship, and ordinary people, are not also the top masters of swordsmanship?"
Feng Mu didn't expect the old man to ask such a question, he scratched his head at the moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Senior, don't you fail in the test, or the kid will get an axe again." A swordsman, from the beginning of the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, he has formed an indissoluble bond with the sword, the sword is his second life, there is no sword in his hand, there is no sword in his heart, it is to hand over his life, everything conforms to the destiny of heaven, and heaven and earth are self-contained, and the way of heaven is the way of the sword. ”
The old man applauded and said, "Yes, my words are very useful to me, so come with me." ”
After the old man finished speaking, he walked out of the cave first, Feng Mu took the clothes that had been dried from the wooden shelf, put them on his body, followed the old man, and walked out.
The sky and the earth were white, the mountain wind was blowing, and the snow was falling arbitrarily, Feng Mu looked at the old man standing in the snow, only to see his hair flying, and the clothes on his body moved with the wind. The old man put his hands behind his back, looking at the sky, the snow fell above his head, and he could only hear him say lightly: "There is no sword in my heart, no sword in my hand, I want to try, in such a realm, how to defeat the enemy." ”
After a long time, there was no change in the heaven and earth except for the slaughter, the old man shook his head and said lightly: "It seems that I haven't reached that realm yet, for the way of the sword, I am still just a layman, and I have to continue to cultivate." ”
After the old man finished speaking, he suddenly saw that the cold wind was blowing on the top of the whole mountain, blowing on the ice and snow, and it showed one deep trace after another, as if it had been chopped by thousands of sharp blades.
Feng Mu was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, looked at everything that happened in front of him in surprise, and muttered in his mouth: "One sword and ten thousand blades, I didn't expect that my predecessors would cultivate to such a realm." ”
The old man shook his head and said, "This kind of swordsmanship is not the highest second, I hope you will be able to achieve the unity of ten thousand swords in the future." ”
As he spoke, he handed over a dry branch, Feng Mu took it, and under the instructions of the old man, he slashed towards the snow-capped peak opposite.
Nothing happened, just a few pieces of snow fell from the sword qi, Feng Mu was a little disappointed, turned his head and followed the old man towards the cave. It's just that he didn't know that after he left, a tiny crack appeared on the opposite peak.
If it is used on flat ground, it is estimated that the geese flying south will also fall to the ground because of fright. (To be continued.) )
