From then on, Song Qingshu's childish jealousy towards Meng Xiuyuan immediately disappeared.
Even for a while, Meng Xiuyuan almost conquered Song Qingshu with his "generous" personality charm.
However, these are all side details.
Right now, what Meng Xiuyuan needs to worry about most is himself.
The goldfinger has yet to be paid, and his martial arts qualifications are so ordinary, making it difficult for Meng Xiuyuan, a time traveler who originally wanted to be the male protagonist of a cool novel, to do so.
Practicing and reading Daozang every day is exhausting to death, but I always feel that I have not made much progress and that I am far away from becoming a great hero.
Three months of training on Wudang Mountain allowed Meng Xiuyuan to further understand his talent in martial arts.
Not only compared to Xiao Qingshu and other senior brothers, but also compared to ordinary third-generation Wudang disciples and ordinary second- and third-rate masters in the martial arts world, his martial arts talent was far inferior.
After practicing a set of Wudang Changquan to this day, Xiao Qingshu has firmly grasped the charm of it, but he is still only barely proficient in the movements. When performing moves in actual combat, he often has no time to adapt, resulting in confusion and mistakes.
Meng Xiuyuan practiced the meditation method very smoothly and could enter a state of concentration almost at any time.
But it's not really Kung Fu. Every time I practice it, I don't feel anything. At most, I feel a little more relaxed physically and mentally.
In short, his failure in martial arts training once made him fall into self-doubt.
Meng Xiuyuan believed that although he was definitely not a genius, he should not be too stupid. In his previous life, he was admitted to 211 University, which proved that he was just above average.
However, Meng Xiuyuan was severely hit by his poor performance during martial arts training.
I think one reason is that martial arts talent is not entirely linked to intelligence and understanding, but is also affected by factors such as innate neural reflexes and body coordination. Furthermore, the people around Meng Xiuyuan are elites of the Wudang sect, and they all have outstanding talents.
So it makes him useless.
Then, a vague and heavy pressure appeared on Meng Xiuyuan unconsciously.
Especially in the last few nights, he always has some strange dreams.
He dreamed that Zhang Sanfeng was poisoned and assassinated, and unfortunately died in the Ruyang Palace. The Wudang Five Heroes wanted to hold him accountable and ask him to pay for Zhang Sanfeng's life.
I dreamed that twenty years later, Zhao Min led people to attack Wudang Mountain. He wanted to protect his master, but his arms and legs were cut off by A Da with a few swords. Since then, he and Yu Sanxia have been lying in the same room all year round, unable to move.
I dreamed that Zhang Sanfeng finally created Tai Chi and was the first to pass it on to him, but he could never practice it because of his qualifications. Zhang Sanfeng was so angry that he shook his head.
I even dreamed that I turned to firearms because I had failed to learn martial arts for many years. I wanted to become famous with flintlock guns and grenades, but I didn't expect that I would get the reputation of "a scumbag in the martial arts world" and be expelled from Wudang.
Shan, was jointly pursued by the six major sects.
At the end of every dream, Meng Xiuyuan would wake up in a cold sweat, panting heavily in a dark room alone.
Under such psychological pressure, Meng Xiuyuan not only worked harder, but also sometimes couldn't help but think wildly and worry about his future.
If you really fail to learn martial arts, should you find another way out for yourself?
But when I thought about it more carefully, I realized that there seemed to be no bypass route.
He considers himself to be an ordinary person who knows neither history nor management. He is introverted and dislikes power. He is not the overlord who can lead an army to revolt and sweep the world as described in historical online novels.
In the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, the status of the Han people was low, the Mongolian court was extremely corrupt, and the people were in dire straits. It was really not easy to live without Wudang Mountain.
As a disciple of Wudang, let alone being unable to join the Mingjiao and participate in the great cause of resisting the Yuan Dynasty, even if he is lucky enough to follow Zhu Yuanzhang and become a hero, the possibility of being purged after the founding of the People's Republic of China is very high.
If you stay among the people and do business and become a rich man, you will be just a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered by the Mongols. After decades of suffering, until the Ming Dynasty, influenced by Zhu Yuanzhang's thought of focusing on agriculture and suppressing business, your status will also change.
Very low.
After thinking about it, even if we take a boat to travel overseas, or ride a camel straight to the Western Regions, we will only face the indigenous barbarians or the barbaric and vulgar Westerners in the late Middle Ages.
Staying in Wudang Mountain and practicing martial arts is indeed his best and safest choice now.
After thinking about all this, Meng Xiuyuan's heart calmed down passively. After all, he has always been a person who can easily compromise himself.
Since there is no other way to go, then just obey God's arrangement.
So in the days that followed, all kinds of distracting thoughts gradually disappeared from his mind. In addition, as time passed and under the influence of habit, he gradually integrated into the monotonous life of practicing martial arts and reading Taoist canon every day.
.
Doing good deeds without asking for reward.
…
Fortunately, things turned out okay, and Meng Xiuyuan really started to change for the better soon after.
I don't know when he started, but Meng Xiuyuan suddenly found that his food intake was significantly increasing, so much that he was a little surprised.
In the past, Song Qingshu or other little Taoist boys were needed to wake him up, but now there is no need at all. Meng Xiuyuan would often be woken up from his sleep by hunger before dawn.
During the three meals in the morning, lunch and dinner, Meng Xiuyuan's food intake at least doubled compared to before. Every time, he felt slightly satisfied only after the food reached his throat.
Just like this, about an hour after the meal, his stomach growled with hunger again, and he needed to go to the kitchen in advance to find something to satisfy his hunger.
Until now, Meng Xiuyuan has to eat at least five or six meals a day to barely stop feeling hungry.
When this situation first started, Meng Xiuyuan didn't pay much attention to it. He just thought that he was a child who had to grow up as he got older, so he always got hungry quickly.
But as his appetite increased rapidly, Meng Xiuyuan gradually felt that something was wrong. How could a normal person have such a large appetite? Besides, he was only six or seven years old now, which was still early for puberty. It was impossible to develop early.
During a certain period of time, Meng Xiuyuan was very worried, thinking that he might have some strange disease, or that he might have parasites in his stomach due to unclean diet. But later, he slowly discovered that in addition to a large increase in food intake, he had no other symptoms.
There is nothing uncomfortable about it.
On the contrary, it was only in the past month or two that he suddenly found that his strength was getting stronger and stronger, the steps under his feet were getting lighter and stronger, and his whole body was full of vitality.
This sudden change made Meng Xiuyuan feel that he had finally mastered something in martial arts, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
But when Meng Xiuyuan went to ask Song Yuanqiao, he got a negative answer.
According to Song Yuanqiao, not to mention that Meng Xiuyuan has not formally learned internal skills yet, and the amount of daily practice is not large. He is just preparing for martial arts training. How can he practice any real skills.
And even after you officially start practicing martial arts, your food intake shouldn't change so suddenly, and your physical strength shouldn't increase so fast. After all, practicing martial arts is a gradual process.
Not to mention the Seven Heroes of Wudang, even Zhang Sanfeng back then had never experienced such a wonderful change as Meng Xiuyuan.
Song Yuanqiao called Yu Lianzhou, Zhang Songxi and others for this purpose, and they studied around Meng Xiuyuan for a long time, diagnosing his pulse and using luck to find out. In the end, they couldn't figure out what was going on with Meng Xiuyuan.
They only sensed that the energy and blood in Meng Xiuyuan's body had become very strong, many times higher than when he first entered.
The Five Heroes of Wudang could not come up with any reasonable explanation for this, so they could only attribute the reason to Meng Xiuyuan's mysterious origin, believing that Meng Xiuyuan was gifted and gradually revealed it as he got older.
According to Zhang Songxi, examples like Meng Xiuyuan are rare in history, but they are not completely absent. The most famous one is the overlord of Western Chu who was born with supernatural powers in the last years of the Qin Dynasty.
If your guess is correct, then when Meng Xiuyuan reaches adulthood, he will naturally have great strength far beyond ordinary people. If he practices some powerful martial arts from the outer sect, he will get twice the result with half the effort, and his achievements will be limitless.
After listening to Zhang Songxi's words, although Meng Xiuyuan was dubious, he couldn't help but feel happy.
I originally thought that I might have no talent at all and would never be able to dream of being a hero in this life, but I didn't expect that in a sudden turn of events, I would suddenly have such a natural talent.
Although compared to those swordsmen with fluttering clothes, the wild man with natural supernatural power looks a little rougher in style, but after all, it is not a way out.
The only thing that made Meng Xiuyuan a little regretful was that the Wudang sect's authentic Xuanmen Kung Fu tended to focus on long-lasting internal energy and using Qi to control force, and were not good at external Kung Fu. Song Yuanqiao and the others could not give Meng Xiuyuan any advice in this regard.
But Meng Xiuyuan is not in a hurry. After all, he is only a six or seven-year-old child now and there is still a long way to go.
Moreover, Song Yuanqiao and others are only guessing at the current judgment of the so-called "natural power" and are not sure. For specific matters, we still have to wait for the return of Zhang Sanfeng, the ultimate martial arts master, before making a final judgment.
As a result, although Meng Xiuyuan had a lot of hopes, his specific life on Wudang Mountain did not change much. He still practiced boxing, sat cross-legged, and read Taoist canon every day.
In such a simple and repetitive life, time passes quietly.
The weather is getting warmer, vegetation is sprouting, and winter turns to spring in the blink of an eye. After all, Meng Xiuyuan has spent half a year on Wudang Mountain.
In the early morning of this day, Meng Xiuyuan woke up as usual and sat on the bed to practice the "quiet mind and breath method", but suddenly he heard the sound of the door being pushed open. He quickly opened his eyes and looked, only to find that it was Song Yuanqiao who had hurried in.
"Elder brother, what happened?!" Meng Xiuyuan asked hurriedly. He knew that if there was no emergency, this indifferent and polite senior brother would never do such a rash thing.
Fortunately, Meng Xiuyuan took another closer look and found that Song Yuanqiao's face did not look frightened, sad or angry at all. Instead, it could be said that he was full of energy and happy.
Even when he spoke, he couldn't hide the excitement and excitement in his tone:
"Junior brother, come with me quickly, the master is back! He has got the black jade intermittent ointment you mentioned!
