As Ye Yuting, the braided girl, took the lead to kneel down, sixteen and seven children not far behind her knelt down together, shouting: "Meet the master."
"Master?" Tang Hui gently let go of Ye Ying's sleeves, squatted down slightly, raised the corners of his mouth, looked at the braided Ye Yuting in front of him, and said with a half-smile: "You kicked me just now, I'm very
Grudgeful."
"The disciple knows the sin, the disciple knows the sin."
Ye Yuting, who was braided and kowtowed quickly, banged her little head on the ground beside Yangming Lake like pounded garlic. It was stained with a lot of mud, and she was trembling and frightened.
"Why is your hair gray?"
Ye Yingxiu did not intercede for these little guys. It was not that she had no compassion in her heart, but that these little guys were originally children of aristocratic families and were used to being arrogant. Now they have become cultivators. They are all lawless and were dealt with by Tang Hui.
Even a meal is fine.
"oh?"
Tang Hui frowned, stretched out his hand and pulled a piece of hair on top of his head, held it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, it turned out to be snow-white. Could this be the sequelae of the total loss of spiritual power?
Then Tang Hui burst into laughter. He had lost all his mental power a while ago, but finally recovered his mental power. Now that his whole body has lost all his mental power, a cycle has truly come true.
As the saying goes, "break and then build", I guess throughout the ages, few cultivators have "broken" more thoroughly than I have!
Tang Hui stood in despair, stretched out his hand to lift up Ye Yuting, who was wearing braids, and said to a large group of children kneeling behind him: "Get up, everyone. I'm not dead yet. There's no point in kneeling here and there."
A large group of children looked at each other in confusion. The master spoke a bit strangely. He stood up slowly and stared at Tang Hui with curiosity and confusion on their faces. Is this the master? Why doesn't he look like a superior?
Ye Yingxiu did not continue to ask the reason for Tang Hui's bald head, but said: "I heard from Tang Yan that it took you several years or hundreds of years to get out of seclusion. How come you got out of seclusion in just three months?"
Tang Hui shrugged, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Don't I miss you? I left the quarantine early."
Tang Hui did not intend to tell anyone about the failure to attack the golden elixir, which resulted in the total loss of spiritual power. Fortunately, the acquired Longquan Sword, a spiritual treasure, had channeled his spirit and escaped into Tang Hui's sea of consciousness on the Lingtai.
If you don't have any strength, you can't imitate heroes and wander around with a big sword on your back.
Tang Hui walked towards his small building adjacent to Yangming Lake. Ye Yingxiu did not comment on Tang Hui's words and did not dwell on why Tang Hui left without saying goodbye three months ago and went into retreat.
She is no longer a rookie who has just entered the world of cultivation. A cultivator often goes into retreat to prepare for a certain realm. Depending on the level of the realm, the duration of retreat is longer or shorter, and what follows is a catastrophe. But Ye
Yingxiu practiced sword fighting in the pavilion for three months, but saw no sign of the catastrophe.
In addition, Tang Hui's head is now full of white hair. There is no doubt that Ming Ming failed to attack the realm. It is not easy for her to touch this bad luck now. She just follows Tang Hui silently without saying a word.
"Yingxiu..." Tang Hui, who was walking in front, did not look back and said softly: "In the way of swordsmanship, every swordsman practicing swordsman has his own unique understanding. To put it in a simpler way, it means 'fast, ruthless,'
Nonsense like "Accurate", basically as long as you practice these three key points, you can become one of the top three masters."
"But as cultivators, there are basically two types. One is to break all laws with one sword; the other is to transform ten thousand swords with one breath. The former focuses on gravity, while the latter focuses on skills. I can't tell which one is better and which one is worse. Each has its own merits. That's all.
Take me as an example, I practice both, but I focus more on turning ten thousand swords into one."
"I observe that when you practice swordsmanship, you use the two most simple and easy-to-understand or extreme methods of 'moving' and 'quieting'. 'Move like a cunning rabbit, stay still like a mountain' has already gained some momentum. How many sword moves are there?
The basic skills of Shi are very solid, and many cultivators follow the path of starting from simple to complex, and then from complex to simple.”
"Haha." At this point, Tang Hui smiled softly and continued: "I won't say any more nonsense about simplicity, returning to nature, etc. You are smarter than me. You should be able to think of it. I am such a person.
I’m clumsy and can’t explain clearly, so it’s better to demonstrate it myself.”
"Yeah." Ye Ying responded with her sleeves as thin as mosquitoes. She raised her head slightly and looked at Tang Hui's back and particularly eye-catching white hair, feeling a burst of sadness in her heart.
There is no shortcut in swordsmanship in the world. To practice swordsmanship, the first step is to hold the sword. If you can't even hold the sword, then you are not using the sword, but being carried away by the sword. Even if the Ye family in Jingzhou has a lot of martial arts
The secrets are just some fancy moves that look like a bunch of flowers. Once you face the enemy, there is only one way to die.
Therefore, Ye Yingxiu held the sword in the pavilion by Yangming Lake for three months without moving at all, not even the blade of the sword trembled.
There are mountains of sword manuals in the Ye Family Library, but Ye Yingxiu never set foot in the Ye Family Library from the first day she decided not to be burdened by Tang Hui in sword practice.
The journey of swordsmanship is no better than that of some cultivators who are born with swords. The most important thing is to drop water to penetrate the stone. As for how to choose the spiritual power inducing techniques to complement each other after the completion, and practice both internally and externally. Ye Yingxiu does not worry about this, Tang Hui will naturally give her more information.
Good lead-in.
After the beginning of winter, until the severe cold, even if the lake froze, Ye Yingxiu was taken to the bottom of the lake by Tang Hui to practice swordsmanship, and the time of holding his breath became longer and longer. The swordsmanship still did not become a master, but he first developed the water nature.
Tang Hui did not teach Ye Yingxiu any profound and mysterious moves. He just asked her to repeat four boring movements: straight thrust, diagonal lift, vertical chop and back sweep.
Stab three thousand, tease three thousand, chop four thousand, plunder four thousand.
Tang Hui thought that Ye Yingxiu, who had been the daughter of the Ye family since she was a child, would at least ask a few questions, but Ye Yingxiu did not.
She trusted Tang Hui more than she trusted herself.
Every day at dawn, she would follow Tang Hui to the bottom of Yangming Lake and start practicing swordsmanship; every night at night, when she was so tired that she had no strength left in her body, Tang Hui would take her back to meditate and regulate her breath, and practice her spiritual power, and the purple sword would never leave her body.
As for Tang Yan, Tang Hui still let Tang Yan follow the path of "every word is precious", practicing calligraphy is like practicing swordsmanship. Fortunately, there is no shortage of calligraphy and painting by master calligraphers in the treasure house of Ye Mansion. I can borrow them one by one and have them.
Tang Hui assisted from the side, and Tang Yan's swordsmanship progressed rapidly.
Comparing Ye Yingxiu and Tang Yan, one emphasizes the sword but not the intention, and the other emphasizes the intention but not the sword.
As Tang Hui said, Ye Yingxiu followed the path of breaking through ten thousand swords with one sword, while Tang Yan followed the path of turning ten thousand swords into one with one breath, which is similar to Tang Hui. It emphasizes one thought and one intention, moving thoughts and moving thoughts, and controlling thoughts with thoughts.
sword.
To put it bluntly, if Ye Yingxiu achieves a small degree of swordsmanship, he can produce sword energy; if he achieves a great degree of swordsmanship, he can produce sword power; and Tang Yan does not care whether it is a small degree of success or a great achievement, as long as she produces sword intention, everything can be turned into a sword.
The strength of its sword intent determines its power.
Both of them were deviant in their approach to swordsmanship. They did not follow the ordinary cultivator's method of cultivating spiritual power, reaching a higher level, and forcibly improving the power of the sword. It seemed that the way Tang Hui, the master, taught his disciples was a bit strange. As for the other disciples
, Tang Hui had a laissez-faire approach and basically ignored him.
Perhaps on a certain level, Tang Hui did not approve of them from the bottom of his heart, but Ye Yuting and Tang Hui, who had braids with crotch horns, left a deep impression on them. They occasionally gave some advice on the practice of "Water Dividing Technique". After all, this child's qualifications
Yes, there is great hope of hitting the foundation building stage, and if you take the "Foundation Building Pill", you should be eight levels sure.
Tang Hui was not optimistic about Ye Shaoqing and Ye Chao.
The metallic spiritual root produced by Ye Shaoqing after taking the "Marrow Cleansing Pill" and the "Gengjin Jue" can basically support the blue-robed old housekeeper without defeat for ten moves. After ten moves, the blue-robed old housekeeper will not take any action.
, Ye Shaoqing is also bound to lose, because his spiritual power at the first level of Qi training can only sustain ten moves before it is exhausted.
What he needs to do now is to work hard to improve his realm and reserve more spiritual power. He is taking the popular path chosen by ordinary cultivators.
As for Ye Chao's earth spiritual roots, after practicing the "Thick Earth Technique" for three months, Tang Hui taught him the "Escape from the Earth" and asked him to go to Jingzhou to search for the spiritual stone mines buried underground.
As for the spiritual veins? Tang Hui didn't expect him to find the spiritual veins at all.
The earth-attribute spiritual roots have an innate affinity for the spiritual stone mines buried underground. As for whether they can find a few spiritual stone mines, it depends on Ye Chao's luck.
As for the other more than 300 registered disciples, Tang Hui paid no attention to them and asked them to work day and night at the Ye Family Campus to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their bodies to improve their cultivation.
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
Tang Hui planned to test Ye Yingxiu and Tang Yan's results this month, just like the monthly test he took when he was in high school.
On this day, Tang Hui called Ye Yingxiu and Tang Yan to his small building adjacent to Yangming Lake, and asked Ye Shaoqing to buy some walnuts on the street and stack them on the wooden floor.
Tang Hui squatted down, stacked two walnuts together, took out the sword from Ye Shaoqing's waist, placed it horizontally on the two stacked walnuts, and said to Ye Shaoqing: "Ye Shaoqing, your first test
, flick the sword with your fingers."
"Yes, brother-in-law."
Ye Shaoqing did not call him master, but called him brother-in-law. Ye Yingxiu immediately glared at him fiercely, while Tang Hui raised the corners of his mouth and said nothing.
Ye Shaoqing followed the instructions and flicked the sword with the index finger of his right hand. The top walnut was shattered, the second walnut showed signs of cracking, and there were no marks on the floor.
Tang Hui nodded, replaced two walnuts and stacked them together, and said to Tang Yan, "It's your turn."
Tang Yan thought carefully for a moment, and then used all the spiritual power of the fourth level of Qi training to flick the sword with one finger. Ye Shaoqing's sword suddenly clicked and broke. Two walnuts were shattered one after another, and even the wooden
A skeleton was broken into the floor.
Tang Hui frowned, picked up half of the sword, changed its position, stacked two walnuts again, covered half of the sword, and said to Ye Yingxiu: "Yingxiu, come and try it."
Ye Yingxiu leaned down and flicked half of the sword with her fingers. The sword and the first walnut did not move at all. The second walnut exploded. Unfortunately, there were several cracks on the floor.
Tang Hui stood up and said: "Ye Shaoqing lost points, Tang Yan failed, and Ye Yingxiu got seventy points."
Tang Yan pouted and said: "Master, how could I fail? I smashed everything, I should have perfect scores."
Tang Hui smiled, touched Tang Yan's head, and said, "This is a test of your control strength and skills, not your brute strength. Otherwise, it would be enough to directly improve your realm. What kind of swordsmanship should you practice?"
"First, we need to find a stress point on the sword body, and then keep the sword body from breaking. Secondly, the first walnut must be intact, the second walnut must be turned into powder, and finally there must be no trace on the ground."
"The popular name is - hunting cattle across mountains."
Tang Hui touched his nose and said: "The next task is to complete what I just said. If you succeed, you will add one. You can only crush the last walnut. After the total reaches ten walnuts, even if
It’s because I have mastered the art of swordsmanship. Even if I’m at the first level of Qi training, I can still kill you with one move against an ordinary monk in the early stages of foundation building.”
"Yes, master."
Tang Yan and Ye Shaoqing responded in unison, while Ye Yingxiu nodded as if she had some understanding, smiled slightly and said, "What if the sword is three feet away from the ground and then crushes the last walnut?"
Tang Hui smiled softly and glanced at Ye Yingxiu with a hint of approval. It seems that this girl is indeed a woman with a beautiful heart and won my heart!
