Chapter 2: Swordsmanship
Don't look like it's already stinking on the street, but in fact, it's the most correct, the most reasonable, and the most clever.
However, there are also many versions of the official Sword Sutra. What is learned in the average bookstore school is just the most ordinary version.
In this town, there is only Mengxue. This is the Enlightenment Sword Sutra. It is only in the future that when I go to institutions of higher learning, such as Taixue, Guozijian and so on. Only then can you learn the most clever one, enter the Xuanjian Sutra and so on.
Liu Yi himself is a great master who has passed down the sword technique, and after a few glances at the sword scripture of the official decision, he already has a lot of information in his heart.
According to the swordsmanship grade promulgated by the Great Chu court, it is divided into nine grades: one is called into the gods, two is said to be sitting in the photo, three is said to be concrete, four is said to be quiet, five is said to use wisdom, six is said to be small, seven is said to be powerful, eight is said to be foolish, and nine is said to be clumsy.
According to the practice of this sword scripture, those with good qualifications can reach between seven and eight grades.
If you reach the eighth grade, it is enough to graduate from Mengxue and enter a higher level school.
And in this town, there is only Mengxue. Therefore, needless to say, what Liu Yi is going to apply for can only be Mengxue.
However, this is definitely not a private school. Rather, it is a fairly large formal school. There were seventy or eighty students.
And there are three of these kinds of Mengxue in this town. So the students add up to almost two hundred.
In this small town of more than 10,000 people, there are 200 Mengxue students. This shows that the rate of access to education is already quite high.
Of course, Mengxue is not just a swordsmanship. There are also various cultural courses.
Although swordsmanship is one of the main courses, it comes from the classics compiled by Emperor Taizong Fan Yi himself, and it is still the core of the cultural class.
Qin Shiyue's sword. Liu Yi naturally didn't ask for it and threw it in the mountains.
That sword is good, though. It's almost a magic weapon. But following Qin Shiyue is too famous, Liu Yike doesn't want to be greedy. Cause some trouble.
So he just bought an ordinary long sword in the town and strode to the school to apply for a job.
But seeing that this position seems to be quite popular, at least five or six people have already signed up, and Liu Yi is already late.
"Swordsmanship is the most important thing to strengthen the enemy. Therefore, this swordsmanship teacher's school must not dare to be sloppy.
Since you are all interested in coming here, it is better to find a time and learn from each other. The one with the best skills wins, how about it?"
That's what the title should be. Therefore, when the chief of the mountain said this, no one was surprised.
"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, since everyone is here today. Let's do it today!"
One of the swordsmen said proudly.
"That's today!" However, he didn't plan to be the first to make a move, but was ready to see others do it first.
Sword competition is a national sport in today's world. Suitable for all ages, it is popular all over the world.
Therefore, the new swordsmanship teacher who came to apply for the job had to compete with the sword, which immediately made the whole school uproar. All the students went to watch, and even the townspeople heard the news and came to see it.
Time. However, five or six people competed with swords, but hundreds of people gathered to watch. You can see how endearing this is.
It is said that there are many places where there is a special place for sword fighting. But this kind of small-town school doesn't have such good facilities.
But only on a level of ground. This is where the students exercise on weekdays.
A thick layer of river sand was laid and compacted with mortar. But it's very easy to use, even if it's raining. It won't be muddy either.
Lewis had already seen that cement was already used in many parts of the town. But overall. The range of applications is not very large.
The swordsman who spoke first in the field had already walked out first. A sword salute. Stretched out his hand: "That swordsman wants to come to compete with the sword, so please come on!"
Liu Yi smiled slightly, although he didn't like the swordsmanship of these teachers in the town. But he was not the first to play. Instead, I want to see what the swordsmanship of these people is.
Although I just took two glances at the official swordsmanship, I still have to test it myself for a few points before I know what it is.
The two of them each bowed to each other, anything, developed and matured. Even if it has become a national movement for hundreds or thousands of years, it will naturally develop a lot of programmed things. Give it more content.
Just like now, this sword fighting has etiquette requirements. Although it is different from the kendo of a certain island country, it is also endowed with moral and ceremonial colors.
Of course, there is also a realistic color. As the two of them finished the ceremony, the whole person's mentality and qi were completely adjusted.
Drawing the sword opposite, a kind of killing intention came out.
The people watching around also closed their mouths, and even almost held their breath, as if they were afraid of making too much noise and disturbing the two of them.
Both of them are basic sword postures, drawing their swords against each other. It's all about the pace of your feet, looking for the opponent's flaws, and preparing to deliver a thunderous blow.
Nine qualities of kendo: one is to enter the gods, two is to sit down, three is concrete, four is to be quiet, five is to use wisdom, six is small, seven is fighting power, eight is foolish, and nine is clumsy.
The swordsmanship of the two of them has almost reached the level of clumsiness of the product.
Don't look at the ninth product, it doesn't sound very good, but if you can really enter the product, it is the ninth product, which is also quite a good level. At least he is qualified to be a swordsmanship teacher who learns Mengxue, and it is more than enough.
This is still a rich town with well-developed transportation. That's why there are such high-quality swordsmen. In a remote place, it is not so easy to find such a master.
The so-called nine products are said to be clumsy, where the sword is good at skill, do not fight with it, but guard my clumsiness, he is clever and has nothing to do, which is called clumsy.
These two people are deeply aware of the samadhi, the so-called enemy does not move, I do not move.
The two of them turned around a few times, and their spirits were highly aware of the sword momentum. All the momentum was ready to go, and it was time for the third lap. Finally, the challenger couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately shouted loudly, like thunder, and the wooden sword in his hand only stabbed through.
"Alas......"
The audience around them sighed, but they all understood the truth that in such a situation, the first strike would naturally fall behind.
However. But this man knows that he is suffering. His whole body of spiritual momentum has climbed to the highest peak, if he doesn't do it again. I'm afraid it will only leak away slowly.
This time. You can only take a risk. After all, momentum is not omnipotent, when the two sides fight. Although it took the lead. But it also depends on the performance when you play against each other.
The sword is the long soldier, and the thorn is the first. Even if it is the current sword shape system, it is still the same as the broad sword similar to the eight-sided Han sword in ancient times.
However, the other party is also a veteran. Since it has the upper hand in momentum, it has already won by a third. How can you make your opponent turn over gently and skillfully?
But it didn't dodge or dodge, and the long sword came first, stabbing straight through. It's actually a life-threatening posture.
The audience around them let out exclamations, although both of them had wooden swords in their hands, but if they were stabbed like this, they would be seriously injured if they didn't die.
But I couldn't think of it. As soon as they fought just now, the two sides were already fighting so fiercely.
The swordsman who struck first was a little weaker, and at this moment he subconsciously dodged a step and avoided it.
The opponent completely took the lead and killed it with a sword. Immediately, the swordsman who struck first was sweating, and the wolf who dodged was unbearable. However, after more than a dozen moves, he was picked off the wooden sword in his hand, and he clenched his fists in frustration and admitted defeat.
Then a second person came on, but it was lackluster. This person has not yet reached the realm of entry. As soon as he came on the field, he rushed out of the sword, and the spirit could not be fused with the sword momentum.
But it was just a move, and he was put on the neck with a sword.
In a regular sword competition, it is natural to take turns. There is time to rest.
But it's not a formal sword fight, so it's not too much of a fuss.
The man had won two games in a row, and his eyebrows were raised. I still have to continue to challenge.
Liu Yi saw it almost at this time, and he did not hesitate to raise his sword.
Just look down at the sword. This wooden sword was originally provided by the school, and it seems to have been used for a long time.
But the wood is strong. It's heavy to hand in, and there are many traces of previous use on it.
This is just an ordinary wooden sword, however, it seems that Liu Yi is about to see a flower.
As he walked over step by step, as if carelessly, the opponent's face turned solemn.
It seems that with every step that Liu Yi takes, the momentum of his body increases even more. However, after walking down the distance of seven or eight steps, the momentum of the whole body suddenly rose to the extreme.
A sword also stabbed like thunder, and this qiē was exactly like the first failed swordsman.
However, Liu Yi's opponent didn't dare to attack like that this time, and used the kind of sword momentum that was both defeating just now.
Without him, he could feel that Liu Yi's sword was piercing, containing a determination to go back and die to the enemy.
He was suddenly surprised in his heart, he himself passed by such a town, and originally thought that there would not be any too powerful masters in this town.
However, I didn't expect it. As soon as Liu Yi made a move, he was startled.
The key to entering the product is not to be able to defend. Rather, it lies in truly comprehending the sword momentum, and the spirit is infused into the swordsmanship. Let the swordsmanship improve to the swordsmanship of Cheng dù.
Every move and every sword goes out, with their own thoughts and confidence.
In this way, we can talk about the product. It's clumsy!
If it weren't for that, if you don't enter the class and don't dare to attack, you can only be regarded as cowardly.
Just like the first opponent he had just defeated, he already knew that the spirit was infused in swordsmanship. However, there was still a lack of faith, so he was defeated lightly.
And Liu Yi's sword, the lack of which made his eyes shine, as if he saw a real opponent.
The steps under his feet moved, just one step away, but they were already beyond the range of Liu Yi's sword.
When the moon is full, it is a loss, and when the cup is full, it is a profit. This is true of the world, and so is swordsmanship.
Since the momentum has been raised to the extreme, he dodges its edge. The art of war is both a sword technique, and the so-called avoiding its sharpness and hitting its laziness is also!
Liu Yi's sword, the sword is extremely strong. If this sword misses, the sword momentum will naturally turn weak. At this time, this is his chance.
However, Lewy followed suit. The momentum on the sword, not only did not decline, but took advantage of this step to step out, and won three points.
This time, it was Liu Yi's turn to miscalculate, and he took a step back in a panic.
However, Liu Yi seemed to have expected it and followed the steps.
In this way, Liu Yi's opponent completely lost the initiative. Under Liu Yi's sword momentum, he became a wolf, but instead repeated the mistake of his first opponent, and soon sweated, and was knocked down by Liu Yi's sword, and could only admit defeat.
Seeing such a wonderful battle, the onlookers couldn't help but applaud.
Insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the liveliness. As a thing cultivated by the whole people, everyone here may have very ordinary swordsmanship, but they have their vision.
You can see the wisdom and swordsmanship displayed by both sides, as well as the beliefs that each side has instilled into the swordsmanship.
This scene can be described as hearty. It made everyone look excited.
The remaining two people were all bitter, but neither of them entered the product. Seeing the situation in front of him, he didn't want to go up and be embarrassed, so he simply admitted defeat.
Let Liu Yi finally get the position of this Mengxue swordsmanship teacher.
The students were even more cheering, happy that they had such a great teacher.
"Your Excellency is really powerful, I can't imagine that there are such masters in this ordinary town. Middle-earth is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Take it orally!"
Liu Yi's opponent, said at this moment.
"Hey, you're not from Middle-earth?"
"I came from the outer domains, crossed the sea, and traveled to Middle-earth. Since you have been defeated in the hands of Your Excellency today, you have no choice but to continue to travel to other places, and take your leave!" said the man, holding his sword and saluting. And he went.
It was actually from a foreign domain, Liu Yi touched his chin.
Since the founding of the Great Chu, it has fought a bloody war with the Western witches for a hundred years. Chase and kill the Western Witches all the way to the Far West, passing along the way. Whether it is the Western Regions, Tianzhu, Tianfang and other places, all of them were conquered by the Great Chu and set up the capital protectorate.
However, since the protectorates of all parts of the country have self-respect, the tail is not lost. Fan Bufan, known as Zhongxing Mingjun, succeeded to the throne and defeated the meritorious elite group who controlled the prefecture everywhere.
Then he began to divide the heroes of the clan and feudal them. Let those heavenly high emperors far away protect the land, all of them are divided into large and small princes and feudal towns.
In addition, the maritime trade flourished at that time and later, and occupied overseas lands. The Great Chu court was also unable to govern effectively, and could only be divided again.
Now it is a bit like the situation of Zhou Tianzi in another world, with the Great Chu of Middle Earth as the core, and there are hundreds of founders in the world.
The difference is that this is much bigger than the era of Zhou Tianzi I don't know how many times.
And the Great Chu court occupies the land of Middle Earth, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and many characters. It also absorbs a large number of talents and materials from various feudal domains, but it is even more prosperous and powerful. It is known as the land of Shenzhou, the land of ancestors.
Most of the people of the outer domains will always set foot in Middle-earth and worship once in their lives. There are even more people who are reluctant to go back and stay in Middle-earth.
Come to think of it, that's what this person is. Although there are not many such people, they are by no means uncommon.
is the identity that Liu Yi is hiding now, and he is also from a distant foreign domain. (To be continued......)
