"The biggest feature of the 'Easy Sword' is that it is not bound by fixed swordsmanship, free and flexible, and adaptable, the sword moves of the 'Easy Sword' are not fixed, but according to the characteristics of the opponent's weapons, skill conditions and offensive and defensive moves, and the corresponding countermeasures are taken, such as' When the enemy attacks, you can take the initiative to retreat, retreat as advance, and then seize the weakness revealed by the enemy's attack, attack with the trend, retreat and advance again, you can take advantage of the situation to play, the attack is stronger, the shot is smoother, and, from retreat to advance, from defense to attack, in one go, your sword move can be like flowing water. Shi Taosheng explained, while using a wooden stick as a sword, he danced the wooden stick, advanced and retreated freely, the pace was very agile, the wooden stick in his hand, sometimes retreated backwards, hidden and ready to attack, sometimes stabbed forward, as fast as a flying arrow, sometimes drew a half-arc to change the direction of attack, and sometimes made a false move to cover the more powerful real moves.......

The wooden stick in Shi Taosheng's hand, left and right, up and down, floats freely, virtual and real, both offensive and defensive; his figure is light and elegant, sometimes quickly flashes back, retreats and waits to attack; sometimes soars up, quickly pounces, its action is very chic, reminiscent of the dragon playing in the water, the flying dragon soaring in the clouds.

Xiao Beiyou imitated Shi Taosheng's movements, dancing the "Three-edged Green Steel Sword" to learn the moves, he found that Shi Taosheng's movements were chic and free, but his own movements were not coherent, and the movements before and after could not be smoothly converted, and the flaws in his moves appeared frequently, Xiao Beiyou felt very dissatisfied with himself.

Shi Taosheng looked at Xiao Beiyou's incoherent movements of the sword and said to him: "You can't learn from me one movement at a time. You have to memorize the whole process of my sword dance, and then dance the moves according to what you want, you don't have to stick to every move to be like, the key is to imagine the opponent's offensive and defensive actions, and then respond skillfully, pay attention to leave room when retreating when dancing the sword, be quick and decisive when attacking, and the transition between actions should be mellow and smooth. Shi Taosheng said, rehearsing the move of "Xingyunshui" again, and Xiao Beiyou watched it very attentively. Memorize the whole set of movements he has rehearsed as much as possible.

Afterwards. Xiao Beiyou rehearsed the "Xingyunshui" move according to the method instructed by Shi Taosheng, and sure enough, the movement of the sword dance was much smoother than just now.

Shi Taosheng said: "All the moves of the 'Easy Sword' routine are to give full play to the advantages of the sword with the internal strength of 'sitting and forgetting', and the sword is known as the ancestor of weapons. As early as the Shang Dynasty, the sword was produced. After the Han Dynasty, the copper sword was gradually replaced by the steel sword. And tend to be stereotyped, the sword can fight in close combat, easy to carry. It is a sharp weapon that is convenient for self-defense, therefore, the emperors and princes of the past dynasties, all use the sword to show their brilliance, the scribes and knights often take the sword as the glory, the sword can stand up and establish the country, the chivalrous righteousness, there is superb swordsmanship, you can cross the battlefield, gallop in the rivers and lakes, eliminate violence and peace, and walk in the world in a chic manner, it can be seen that the sword is a noble weapon, you now start to practice the 'free sword', you must cherish the sword in your hand, cherish the set of swordsmanship you began to learn. ”

"The little nephew also heard Master Fang Liuhe say before, the sword is one of the four major weapons in ancient times, people in the martial arts, some people even call it 'the king of a hundred soldiers', in the ancient battlefield, the sword is one of the most commonly used weapons, usually, the sword has two edges and a tip, it is flexible to use, it can be easily avoided when encountering a sharp one, and it can be quickly avoided when encountering a strong impact, and the sword can stab, split, wipe, and knock, poke, Chop, so that the sword's body can be very flexible, can fly straight forward, can retreat to attack, can approach in a roundabout way, and can arc flash attack, etc., the sword is indeed a very favorite weapon. Xiao Beiyou has a bold personality, as soon as he talked about the sword, he talked endlessly, and after saying a series of words, he felt that this was an axe in front of Shi Taosheng, so he stopped talking.

Shi Taosheng said: "It is rare that you know a lot about the sword, to be able to win with the sword, of course, it is related to the use of the sword, but the more important thing is to have wonderful swordsmanship, different swordsmanship has different sword posture, such as the 'walking sword' marches smoothly, swings freely, and the line stops more and less; Drunken sword' seems to be drunk not drunk, the posture of the drunk sword is not drunk, it seems to be slow for the disease, each kind of swordsmanship has its characteristics, it is difficult to say which kind of swordsmanship is more advantageous, the key is that the internal strength cultivation should be strong, the mastery of the moves should be proficient, the internal strength and external force should be integrated, and the eyes, body, steps, and swords should echo freely, only in this way can we give full play to the advantages of swordsmanship. ”

"Uncle Shi, what kind of swordsmanship does this set of 'Easy Sword' you taught your little nephew belong to? The little nephew just saw you practice the 'Xingyunshui' move, it seems that it is different from the several swordsmanship you just talked about, is it a brand new swordsmanship?" Xiao Beiyou asked.

"'Xiaoyao Sword' is a bit like 'Drunken Sword' in terms of charm, but not as strong as 'Drunken Sword', 'Xiaoyao Sword' is more flexible than 'Gong Sword', softer than 'Xing Sword', and stronger than 'Mianjian', so 'Xiaoyao Sword' is fast and slow, soft and rigid, slow and urgent, and quiet and moving; 'Xiaoyao Sword' emphasizes the flexible use of sword moves, familiar with sword moves but not bound by sword moves; when handy, sword moves are already non-sword moves, and no sword technique is the supreme sword technique. Shi Taosheng said.

"The little nephew understands a little, 'Easy Sword' is your original new swordsmanship, what it pursues is what you said to the little nephew before, 'There is no law, but the law', not bound by specific sword moves, there are tricks in your heart but you don't need specific moves, but you can make strange moves as you like. Xiao Bei lobbied.

"You're right, in fact, it's not just that there are no specific moves, it's not just that there are moves and no moves, and the 'Northern Soul Easy Sword' emphasizes that the best way to use the sword is to use the 'Three-edged Green Steel Sword' as both a sword and not just a sword, but as a mace, a stick, a knife, a whip, etc. 'Endless stick' and so on can be used alone, but also mixed, in this way, three routines eighteen moves have tricks and non-moves, if you can be handy, you can change endlessly, out of nowhere, the sword is both a mace, and a stick, but also other weapons, 'three-edged green steel sword' to make, is a sword and not a sword, the sword light is towards, unpredictable, unguardable, the sword qi out, all the internal force is explicit, the power is incomparable. You also have to remember that the sword is a weapon, but a clever swordsman is not a light killing, the use of a sword and the use of soldiers, are all in the soldier without a fight, unless forced to do so, must not kill lightly, the sword is bright, the emphasis is on deterring the enemy, not taking people's lives. Shi Tao said sternly to Xiao Bei seriously.

"The little nephew respectfully follows Uncle Shi's teachings, never kills people lightly, never kills innocents indiscriminately, and cherishes the dignity and glory of the sword!" Xiao Beiyou said firmly.

Shi Taosheng said: "'Easy Sword', 'Wu Xiang', 'Wu Yan Gong' and 'Wu Yan Stick' three major routines are endless, you must 'consciously self-realize', Fang Cai, the old man just taught you the 'Xingyun Shui' in the 'Easy Sword', in addition to this move, there are also 'Butterfly Dream', 'Fish Fun', 'Ease of Ease', 'Riding the Clouds', 'Royal Flying Dragon', etc., each move has different moves, styles, and characteristics, but they all require to play naturally, and not necessarily rigidly follow the original move procedures to make the sword. ”

Shi Taosheng said, the "butterfly dream" and other five moves carefully practiced to Xiao Beiyou, Xiao Beiyou carefully memorized, after that, he repeatedly practiced these five moves, the more he practiced, the more comfortable he felt, to later, he could realize that these five moves and "Xingyun Shui" are the same, are in the pursuit of a kind of free swordsmanship, and each move is different, some are softer, some are more aggressive, some are majestic, some are strange and dangerous, people who are not familiar with this set of swordsmanship, but also think that they are using different routines of swordsmanship.

Shi Taosheng said: "This is the six moves of the 'Easy Sword', you practice well, you must practice to the realm of being familiar with the moves but do not have to intentionally use the moves, in order to use this swordsmanship with ease; in addition, there are also six moves of 'Wuxiang', which are 'Dragon Wuxiang', 'Tiger Wuxiang', 'Leopard Wuxiang', 'Phoenix Wuxiang', 'Eagle Wuxiang' and 'Crane Wuxiang'; Xiaoyao Sword's practice is more proficient, and the old man will teach you to practice this 'Wuxiang Gong' and 'Wuyi Stick', if you teach you too many moves at once, even if you can memorize it, it is easy to get confused when you practice, it is better to learn it in order and gradually. ”

"Uncle Shi is right, you just practiced the five moves of the 'Easy Sword', although the little nephew memorized it, but sometimes it will be messy when practiced, such as the 'Butterfly Dream' and 'Fish Fun' The two moves are similar to some sword moves, sometimes you will make mistakes, as long as you practice it well and understand the differences, you can practice it well, the little nephew must learn it step by step, please rest assured Uncle Shi. Xiao Bei lobbied.

Shi Taosheng continued: "The six moves of the 'Easy Sword' actually contain a variety of sword moves such as stabbing the sword, holding the sword, wiping the sword, picking the sword, chopping the sword, splitting the sword, etc., each move has its own characteristics, each has its own merits, you can only really realize its wonders in actual combat, so, you must not be in a hurry, you must learn that the 'Northern Sword' is not a matter of a few days and months, but a few years or even one, Twenty years of things, moreover, it is important to pay attention to the practice of swords to be diligent, but to use the sword to know how to forbear, not to take the sword lightly, not to hurt people, not to kill people, the rivers and lakes have righteousness, the sword also has 'righteousness', with the sword to kill innocents, swordsmanship is difficult to reach the highest level. Liu Changchuan of the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem in praise of the sword, and the old man read it to you, and you can also appreciate it: 'The sword is not available, and it is difficult to meet. I once saw it today, and the red color was cold. The stars in the box move, and the moon shadow on the edge of the ring remains. Nature is ghostly, and nothing is empty. (To be continued......)

PS: The sword is more noble in ancient weapons, and martial arts novels learn to use swords by chic chivalrous warriors, which is more interesting, and Xiao Beiyou met Shi Taosheng, and the two had a leisurely meeting and practiced the ...... of "Northern Sword".
