Qin Hao naturally knew what the threshold Sun Lutang was talking about and nodded calmly.
Sun Lutang's eyes sparkled, and he grabbed Qin Hao's arm excitedly: "Then, have you stepped over?"
Qin Hao shook his head helplessly: "I have traveled through most of China over the years, but I still haven't found a way to practice Qi."
"..." Sun Lutang's eyes were full of disappointment, but then he squeezed out a smile: "It doesn't matter, you are still young, you still have at least twenty years to explore."
It was obvious that Sun Lutang was afraid that Qin Hao would become disheartened and lose his pursuit of martial arts. As someone who was also stuck at that threshold at his peak, he knew very well what a helpless feeling it was, unable to practice martial arts.
No matter how high he is, he will be knocked down with one shot.
Among the crowd, Qin Hao was originally the most inconspicuous person among Gong Baosen and his entourage. Needless to say, Gong Baosen was the leader of the northern martial arts world and was the center of attention wherever he went.
There are people who can go through ten rounds under him, let alone the older generation.
Even Ma San, as Gong Baosen's close disciple, has already made a name for himself. Gong Ruomei, the second young lady of the Gong family and Gong Baosen's only daughter, has no time to curry favor with her.
However, just after Ye Yunbiao exchanged greetings with Gong Baosen, he crossed the crowd and came to Qin Hao. He cupped his fists and raised his hands to him: "We say farewell to Jinmen. I haven't had time to thank you for your kindness. Let's prepare some wine tonight."
, please sir, please don’t refuse.”
As soon as he finished speaking, those martial arts people who didn't know Qin Hao all looked at him in surprise.
In the eyes of ordinary people, martial arts people are high-ranking heroes, but in the eyes of those in power, they are the creators of chaos.
A chivalrous man breaks the law with force!
When the Qing Dynasty entered the country, it even issued a ban on martial arts to restrict people from practicing martial arts, which shows that the government was afraid of people in the martial arts world.
And Ye Yunxian now represents the government, and his status is not comparable to that of Gong Baosen.
Such a person, yet he has such high regard for an unknown young man.
"Why is Mr. Ye so polite to this boy?"
"No, it doesn't look like he's older than my son. Why?"
"Don't be dissatisfied. Although he is young, he has high seniority. Can you afford to offend Li Cunyi's close disciple?"
"What's the matter with Li Cunyi? It doesn't matter if he's just a man or a man of higher seniority. A martial arts practitioner, he'll see his true story in the ring. If he has the ability to fight with me."
Qin Hao turned a deaf ear to these provocations. This group of people was obviously a younger generation of boxers who were eager to rise to the top. Those of the older generation were staring at Qin Hao with half-smiling faces to see his reaction.
However, Qin Hao didn't respond, but Xue Dian couldn't help it anymore and shouted angrily: "If you want to challenge my junior brother, you are not qualified. You must pass my test first!"
In an instant, the young boxer who had been clamoring just now became silent. Xue Dian's name was all given. He also had a hot temper and was very aggressive. He might break his bones or tendons. Who would dare to fight him?
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Ye. I have some things to do tonight, so I won't participate. You and my uncle will have a few more drinks." Qin Hao was not interested in such a banquet at all, and he really had something to do tonight.
Ye Yunbiao said with regret on his face: "Well, I'll help Mr. Feng another day."
Afterwards, Ye Yunbiao and Gong Baosen left the dock in a mighty manner, surrounded by a group of martial arts people.
Qin Hao, on the other hand, took Gong Ruomei and Lao Jiang into the car arranged by Ye Yunbiao and went to the hotel arranged by him to check in.
In the car, Gong Ruomei was full of curiosity about this moving iron lump. Although there were cars in Jinmen, she had only seen them on the roadside and had not sat on them.
"Brother, what does this car rely on to make it move?"
"It is driven by an internal combustion engine and uses gasoline as raw material. You will understand the principle once you learn physics and chemistry."
"oh."
Gong Ruomei's eyes were full of longing. In her opinion, the magic of this science was no less magical than martial arts, and even more charming.
After dinner, Qin Hao was about to send Gong Ruomei back to the hotel room, but he saw her grabbing Qin Hao's sleeve pitifully: "Brother, can you take me with you?"
Even though Gong Ruomei is usually much more mature than her peers, in fact she is still just a child who has just turned ten years old. Now that she has left the familiar environment and Gong Baosen is not around, she is inevitably a little uneasy.
"Okay, but don't make any noise for a while, just watch it, you know?" Qin Hao warned.
"Yeah!" Gong Ruomei nodded obediently, with an expression that said: I am obedient.
We hailed two rickshaws and soon arrived in front of a courtyard in Nanjing.
Knocking the door gently, Sun Lutang welcomed the two of them in enthusiastically.
As soon as he entered the door, Qin Hao's eyes were fixed. He saw a middle-aged man in his forties standing in the yard. He was dressed in military uniform and filled with murderous intent. His whole person was like an unsheathed sword, unstoppable.
"This is my best friend, Li Jinglin, the successor of Wudang Jianxia Chengdan Sect."
If you just look at the word "lower", people may mistakenly think that this is an inferior and inferior sect. In fact, the Wudang Dan Sect's swordsmanship is one of the Wudang Mountain Sect's mountain-holding swordsmanship. It is just because of the Wudang Sect's
Taoist beliefs seek to ascend in the daytime, and the Dan sect is only a method of practicing life skills, so it is not very famous.
In fact, Zhang Sanfeng's most outstanding disciple "Zhang Songxi" was the first generation descendant of the Dan sect. Later, "Zhang Songxi" returned to his hometown and founded the "Songxi sect" which spread widely.
"I've met Uncle Li." Qin Hao cupped his fists and raised his hands.
Li Jinglin looked Qin Hao up and down for a while and said in surprise: "Have you ever practiced Taoist internal skills and mental methods?"
"When I was traveling a few years ago, I met several Taoist hermits." Qin Hao said calmly.
Li Jinglin nodded slightly: "I said that your energy and blood are so restrained. If it weren't for Senior Brother Sun saying that you have already practiced the Life Skill to the extreme, I would have thought you had never practiced martial arts."
Generally speaking, people who practice martial arts have much stronger qi and blood than normal people, and their faces look rosy. There are also legendary symptoms of bulging temples after practicing martial arts to the extreme.
The reason why Qin Hao's Qi and blood are restrained is mainly because he has practiced Taoist Xing Gong. Although he has not developed a sense of Qi for so many years, it can indeed help Qin Hao calm his mind, lock Qi and blood, and slow down the loss of Qi and blood.
Qin Hao was not surprised that Li Jinglin could see this. After all, the Wudang Sect was an authentic Xuanmen sect, and Li Jinglin was a descendant of the Wudang Sect, so he must have cultivated both life and life.
Sun Lutang said to the two of them: "Since you are both cultivating both life and life, why not prove each other's knowledge? Maybe you can break through the barrier and open up a road to heaven for future generations of warriors."
Qin Hao didn't care. Maybe in the eyes of others, the practice of cultivating both life and life was extremely valuable, but in his opinion, it had limited value. If you couldn't practice it, everything would be in vain.
But what surprised Qin Hao was that Li Jinglin agreed readily.
Seemingly seeing Qin Hao's surprise, Sun Lutang explained with a smile: "Brother Li Xian has decided that after the establishment of the Nanjing Guoshu Hall, Wudang swordsmanship will be made public. Regardless of sects, anyone who wants to learn it will be taught it with all his strength!"
Gong Ruomei looked at Li Jinglin with shock in her eyes. As Gong Baosen's daughter, she knew a lot about the rules of the martial arts since she was a child.
The skills of a sect are priceless treasures to the people of that sect.
Let’s not talk about how after the sect’s skills are leaked, the enemy will attack you after studying them. Let’s take the elders and disciples of the sect as an example.
If you can tell others about the exercises you have worked so hard to learn so easily, what will you do with your hard work and the money you spent?
If it's an ordinary small sect, that's it. Maybe if the exercises are not announced, no one will learn them, and the inheritance will be cut off. It is a last resort.
That was the Wudang Dan Sect, a famous and famous sect in the world. How much resistance would there be.
Previously, in Gong Ruomei's eyes, her father Gong Baosen was the only high mountain, not only because of his superb martial arts and undefeated record, but also because of his broadmindedness and magnanimity, which was admired by everyone in the entire northern martial arts world.
However, now Gong Ruomei has seen another high mountain. In a sense, it is a higher mountain than her father.
In the yard, Qin Hao and Li Jinglin first confirmed the sexual skills. The Wudang sect's skills are inner alchemy, which uses the body as a furnace to refine the energy, refine the energy into the spirit, and combine the spirit and energy.
Jindan Avenue.
But, the question remains, where does the anger come from?
They all say that refining energy can transform Qi, but what should I do if Qi cannot be transformed?
In Qin Hao's view, there are two possibilities for the so-called qi. One is "qi", a substance floating in the air, and this substance suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons, or it may be that like a tide, the world is changing.
It's at low tide, so you can't feel the presence of "qi" at all.
The other kind of "qi" is indeed cultivated through the warmth of the body, but after human beings have reproduced from generation to generation, due to food, air, water, etc., the body has been polluted and can no longer "nurture" the qi.
"No, your idea is a bit extreme. I think maybe our bodies have not reached their peak yet, so we are still unable to refine our Qi." Li Jinglin immediately retorted.
Qin Hao did not argue and winked at Gong Ruomei, who immediately took a few steps back in understanding.
But Qin Hao stood up and made a fist with his right hand. He didn't see how he was planning it, and then he punched the stone table directly.
"Boom"
The thirty-centimeter-thick stone table suddenly cracked, but Qin Hao's hand only turned red.
Li Jinglin looked at the scene in front of him in shock. He squatted down and checked the stone table to make sure that it had not been tampered with in advance. Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Maybe you are right."
He really couldn't believe that a person could train his body to be so strong. If such a body was not the ultimate, then he couldn't imagine what was the limit of human beings.
Thinking about it this way, Li Jinglin felt that his faith was about to collapse.
"Taoists say that there are fifty great avenues and fourty-nine heavenly deities, and one of them can be escaped by humans. But now, looking at it, where is this one that humans can escape from?"
Sun Lutang couldn't hide his disappointment on his face. Originally, he wanted Li Jinglin to pass on the skills of cultivating both life and life to Qin Hao, and with Qin Hao's powerful body, he could break through the threshold that had blocked countless previous boxers.
But now, not only did they not break in, but they proved one thing: maybe there is really no way to practice Qi in this world.
Gong Ruomei didn't quite understand what dual cultivation of life was, but the despair on the faces of the two martial arts masters made her slightly uneasy.
At night, on the way back, neither Qin Hao nor Gong Ruomei took a car, but walked slowly forward under the moonlight.
"Senior brother, if there is no road ahead, what will you do?" Gong Ruomei suddenly asked.
Qin Hao reached out and pressed Gong Ruomei's shoulder: "Either turn back and find another way, or use your own strength to break out of the way."
"What would you do if you were a senior brother?" Gong Ruomei asked again.
Qin Hao smiled: "Me? I will choose the third way."
"Ah? Is there a third way?"
"Maybe?"
........
The next day, Gong Baosen took Qin Hao and his entourage to the Nanjing Martial Arts Hall for a meeting. Of course, the Nanjing Martial Arts Hall was still in the preparatory stage in name and had not been officially listed.
It was said to be a meeting, but in reality, it was almost like a vegetable market.
As a martial arts practitioner, he has a hot temper and a loud voice, and he will curse at every disagreement.
It might have been just an argument between a few people at first, but soon it started to become a war of words. After all, who doesn't have a fellow disciple or something like that?
Qin Hao was so quarreled that his head was pounding, but Ye Yunbiao was used to it. He had been dealing with these boxers for many years, so he naturally understood their temperament. He waited until they were about to fight, and then knocked on the table.
The martial artist who just now almost picked up the stool to open the opponent's mouth immediately obediently put the chair under his buttocks again.
Ye Yunbiao cleared his throat: "Ahem, please don't get excited. Our meeting today is for everyone to recommend some knowledgeable people to take up positions in the Nanjing Martial Arts Center."
"I think it would be better to do this one by one. For the position of library director, we will first select the four people with the largest number of votes, and then conduct a voting. The person with more than half of the votes will be elected. How about that?"
The northern martial arts community discussed it for a while and said that there is no problem, this method is good, and we will follow this.
But the southern martial arts community has quit, so why do they have fewer people qualified to participate than the northern martial arts community? Wouldn't it be a big disadvantage to choose them like this, because they won't gain anything by then?
"Mr. Ye, we martial arts practitioners don't have that many tricks. If you want to be the master of a gym, you have to show your true skills. Otherwise, how will you convince the public?"
"Yes, do you dare to have a fight in the ring?"
The northern martial arts community looked at it and thought, is this a challenge? Come on, who is afraid of whom?
As a result, the scene became even more chaotic.
Ye Yunbiao also had a headache for a moment, and then Gong Baosen stood up.
"What your martial arts colleagues say makes sense, and Mr. Ye's method is also very good."
"I think if we don't do this, let's elect the four with the most votes first, and then go to the ring to compete, and the winner will be the host. How about that?"
After all the talk, a fight was inevitable, and Gong Baosen also knew very well that if the Southern Wulin side was not able to take any advantage, they would most likely quit and stop playing.
The Nanjing Guoshu Hall has become a self-entertainment for northern martial arts circles, and the government will definitely be dissatisfied.
