On the street, most vendors knew that Master Wang Yue had a disciple named Wang Xiyao.

Wang Xiyao not only made himself famous, but also made his master Wang Yue and Jianguan famous.

Wang Yue was very satisfied with this.

In terms of swordsmanship, Wang Xiyao has no talent. However, in terms of dealing with people and treating things, Wang Xiyao is more sophisticated and steady than other disciples in the Sword Museum, even if Shi Adu is a little worse.

There are still some differences between those who have read books and those who have never read books.

Ji Yun found Wang Xiyao and said, "Junior Brother Wang, Master wants to see you."

Wang Xiyao said, "I'll go to Master's place now."

Come to Wang Yue’s residence.

Wang Xiyao bowed and said, "Disciple has met his mentor."

Wang Yue nodded, stroked his beard and said, "Your virtue is worthless. I have decided to formally teach you sword skills today."

Wang Xiyao said happily: "Thank you, my teacher."

Wang Yue asked, "Xiyao, can you tell me why you want to learn swords? Logically speaking, if you have studied books, you can be a disciple of the great scholars, so that you will have the channels to become an official in the future. Learn swordsman and be a ranger. Even if you are skilled in swordsmanship, you will be looked down upon and discriminated against."

There are still many great scholars in Luoyang City. People like Cai Yong, Song Zhong, Lu Zhi, etc. are all famous scholars. They are all very respected.

In order to become a disciple, Wang Xiyao knelt in front of the sword hall until he fainted, and his sincerity could be added. With such perseverance and sincerity, he would have a 60 to 70% chance of success when he went to the disciple of the Great Confucian scholar.

Wang Xiyao said: "When you say to your teacher, I came to the sword hall to learn swordsmanship. At first, I just wanted to avoid being hungry and wanted to have two full meals a day. However, after learning swordsmanship with my senior brother, my disciples gradually fell in love with swordsmanship and enjoyed the feeling of practicing swordsmanship. I used the Tao to carry the Tao, and my disciples felt that swordsmanship could also carry the Tao."

"Okay, okay, okay." Wang Yuelian said three good words.

If Wang Xiyao's words come from sincerity, then even if he has no talent in sword training, he will definitely achieve some success in swordsmanship in the future.

Talent is important, but don’t forget that diligence can make up for your shortcomings!

Wang Yue drew out his long sword and said, "Your senior brother has already told you about the four realms of swordsmanship, right?"

Wang Xiyao nodded and said, "Sword skills can be divided into four realms: proficiency, subtle, artistic conception, and one. The eldest brother explained it to me very clearly."

Wang Yue said: "Proficiency and meticulousness are the foundation. Even the stupidest person can practice swords carefully and spend decades of hard work to achieve proficiency in swordsmanship, and even control the strength in a meticulous manner. However, the level of artistic conception is different, and you need to have your own "Tao". You just said it well, swords can also carry the Tao. When you have your own "Sword Tao" in your heart, then even if you step into the level of artistic conception. As for the unity of man and sword, it depends on the opportunity, and more on the spiritual breakthrough."

Wang Yue only realized the essence of swordsmanship after he was forty years old. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiyao knew the truth at a young age, which was really commendable.

True transmission is just one sentence, fake transmission is thousands of books.

Wang Yue's explanation made Wang Xiyao's eyes shine. He gave Wang Xiyao a new understanding of the four realms of swordsmanship.

Proficiency and meticulousness are a gradual process. As long as you concentrate and work hard, you can definitely do it.

But the level of artistic conception involves the mind and will.

When a swordsman can integrate his will into his swordsmanship, his swordsmanship will naturally have sword intent.

The unity of man and sword is to find the balance point between man and sword. It requires the real coordination between man and sword and to give the sword "life" in the hand. Only in this way can we have the opportunity to understand the mystery of man and sword unity.

Wang Yue practiced and demonstrated swordsmanship for Wang Xiyao.

The same eight basic moves of swordsmanship, and the same set of swordsmanship, are very different from those of Wang Xiyao, Shi A, and Wang Yue.

Although Wang Xiyao's sword is stable, it is rigid.

Shi's sword is fast, skillful and meticulous.

Wang Yue's sword was like a spiritual snake spitting out a letter, as if it was "living".

Wang Xiyao stared at Wang Yue's posture of his sword, trying to portray the picture in front of him in his mind.

"Spirituality." Wang Xiyao said in his heart, "The long sword in the hands of his master is no longer a dead object, but a spirituality."

After demonstrating the sword technique, Wang Yue asked, "Xiyao, how much have you understood?"

Wang Xiyao said: "The disciples have already understood 70% or 80% of the principles. But they cannot achieve the unity of knowledge and action."

The theory of swordsmanship is not difficult. What is difficult is to understand the sword intent and achieve the unity of man and sword.

"Unity of knowledge and action?"

Wang Yue's eyes lit up: "The word "integration of knowledge and action is really wonderful to use. Xiyao, you have understood the principles of the four realms of swordsmanship. Then you can only practice hard on your own in the future. Some things can be taught, but some things can't be taught."

Wang Xiyao said, "Disciple understands. Master leads you to the door and practices are for one person."

………

Next, Wang Xiyao practiced swords more slowly than before. Every time he used a sword, he had to stop thinking and think.

After thinking thoroughly, then draw the sword.

Other disciples in the Sword Hall practice swords with their hands or with their bodies. Only Wang Xiyao is practicing swords with his heart.

Wang Xiyao is slow to learn things, but once he learns and understands the truth, his diligence speed is not comparable to others. Wang Xiyao practices swords with great care, and with Wang Yue, a master of swordsman, personally teaches and demonstrates swordsmanship, letting Wang Xiyao practice for one month is equivalent to others practicing hard for a year.

A vendor with blood on his forehead rushed into the sword hall to find Wang Xiyao.

The vendor said with a sad look: "Young Master, you must make a decision for the villain. My stall was smashed."

Wang Xiyao said: "Don't be impatient. If you have something to do, just say it slowly."

The vendor told me what happened. He paid the protection fee to the sword hall. He was protected by the sword hall, so of course he would not pay the money to others. Just now, several other people came to collect the money. If the vendor didn't give it, they beat the vendor and smashed the vendor's stall.

Wang Xiyao must take care of this matter.

Wang Xiyao said: "Where are they now? Take me to find them."

The vendor brought Wang Xiyao, Ji Yun, and four other disciples from the Sword Hall out of the Sword Hall.

………

Several guys who were in the air were extorting other vendors on the street.

Wang Xiyao shouted: "Stop!"

When they heard Wang Xiyao's scolding, they stopped and stared at Wang Xiyao with malicious intentions.

"Boy, what are you? You shouldn't care about this matter. If you know the truth, just get away." A gangster in the lead said with a ferocious face.

Wang Xiyao was not scared. He was a disciple of the sword saint Wang Yue. There was a sword hall behind him. How could he be afraid of a few gangsters?

Wang Xiyao said: "I really deserve to be in charge of this matter. After our sword hall collects money from vendors, we must protect them so that they can operate and do business with peace of mind. Anyone who dares to bully these business people will be enemies with the sword hall."

Ji Yun nodded and said, "Junior Brother Wang is right. You must compensate the vendors for their losses and are not allowed to bully them again in the future. Otherwise, they will be enemies with us."

The leading gangster sneered: "All you disciples of the Sword Hall? Humph. Don't mention you, even if that old guy Wang Yue comes, we are not afraid."

Ji Yun's face turned angry and scolded, "Bold. How dare you disrespect my master."

Ji Yun was about to draw out the long sword, and Wang Xiyao pressed his wrist and told him to stay calm.

Swords are a powerful weapon to kill and cannot be easily drawn.

The gangster said, "Do you know who we are? We are from Zhang Rang Zhang Gong's mansion. Do you have the courage to go against Zhang Gong?"

Zhang Rang was the eunuch and the head of the ten eunuchs.

He has no official position, he is just a eunuch, but he is with the emperor every day and can easily affect the emperor's will.

Such people are even more terrifying than prime ministers and generals.

No wonder the slaves in Zhang Rang's mansion are so unscrupulous.

Not only Wang Xiyao, but even Ji Yun and other disciples from the Sword Hall, they were all guilty when they heard that they were Zhang Rang's slaves.

Wang Xiyao took a deep breath, calmed down, and said with neither humility nor arrogant words: "What a man Zhang is, of course our sword hall dare not go against him. But are you slaves qualified to represent Mr. Zhang? I heard from my master that Mr. Zhang is unparalleled and righteous. How could Mr. Zhang be greedy for the small money of the vendors? You are under the name of Mr. Zhang and do whatever you want to do for your own selfish desires, which will ruin Mr. Zhang's reputation. If Mr. Zhang knows it, it will be difficult for you to die."

The faces of several servants changed.

All of them were called by Wang Xiyao. Zhang Rang was greedy for money, but he was not short of small money. To be honest, Zhang Rang really didn't take the little money from the vendors seriously. Bullying vendors would instead lower Zhang Rang's level.

"Boy, you're looking for death!"

The head slave drew his sword and stabbed Wang Xiyao. He was so angry that he was so angry that he had a killer move when he used his sword.

Wang Xiyao felt panicked.

Wang Xiyao has mastered the basic sword moves and has learned a set of sword techniques. Although Wang Xiyao thinks he is pretty good at practicing it, practicing sword is practicing swords, and actual combat is practical combat.

If you practice swords well, you may not be able to fight in practice.

Wang Xiyao also drew out his sword and hurriedly blocked the sword that the opponent stabbed.

bite!

The two long swords collided, making a sharp and harsh sound.

Wang Xiyao blocked the opponent's long sword attack, but he was in a mess and almost fell down.

The head slave said, "Boy, you are very powerful and can actually block my sword. But I want to see, how many moves can you resist me? Today, I must kill you."

If the murderous intention is together, it will not be extinguished so easily. He will not give up until he kills Wang Xiyao.

Gangsters and gossips are all ordinary men. They draw their swords to fight for life and death on the streets. Such things happen often in Luoyang City.

The government rarely pays attention to it.

After blocking the three swords in a mess, Wang Xiyao finally calmed down. He also had a structure to draw the sword, and his movements were much smoother. Wang Xiyao had been practicing hard for several months, and in his first actual combat, he gradually showed seven or eight points of strength.
