In the mountains and forests in the early morning, some light fog has not yet dissipated. Looking from a distance, it looks like something or another, like the graceful veil of a fairy dancing.
The soft sunshine shines through the mist on the mountain forest, and the lush leaves have deep and light green.
The grass on the hillside is lush, and clusters of unknown wildflowers are bathed in the sunshine and blooming with smiles. The dew on the petals flashes with colorful lights under the morning light. Birds are cheerful on the branches.
The chirping sounded like singing or a debate, so the quiet forest became full of vitality.
"Bang"
Suddenly, a huge sound came, startling countless birds.
In an instant, the quiet forest became noisy.
Gongliang didn't realize that he had disturbed the tranquility of the woods. He just took a long knife and chopped down the trees one by one. After splitting them into sections, he split them into pieces again. After he finished practicing his knife, he could chop them down.
Bringing good firewood home to burn can be said to be a good way to practice cutting firewood.
He always felt weird when he was practicing swordsmanship in the air, but now he realized that the feeling of slashing in the air was very different from that of slashing solid. Not only the control of strength, but also the control of the body and the use of energy were completely different.
Same.
A sudden realization came to his mind, which caused some changes in his sword skills.
Chopping, chopping, chopping, sweeping, teasing, try it out, and keep swinging out again and again. Gradually, the sword skills become more subtle.
Gongliang used to write books. Because he needed to use martial arts knowledge, he also read some books on swordsmanship.
Regarding the records of sword skills, I remember that there is the most basic "Eight Sword Skills", which refers to the eight simplest sword skills such as sweeping, splitting, poking, cutting, plundering, killing, chopping, and thrusting. What he thought
Almost all of the Five Elements of Sword Techniques are included in it. Basic Sword Techniques are actually the general outline of all Sword Techniques and the interpretation and application of all Sword Techniques. Once you have mastered the basics, it will be much easier to find advanced Sword Techniques to practice.
Things in the world are nothing more than from simple to complex, and then from complex to simple again.
That is to say, there are three realms: seeing mountains are mountains, seeing mountains not being mountains, and seeing mountains being mountains again.
Of course, these are still far away for Gongliang. He is still a young boy and has not yet mastered even the most basic sword skills.
Gongliang slashed with his sword one after another. He used a two-handed sword, which was heavy and fierce, and resolute. The two-handed sword required very important steps and body coordination. For example, when you advance to chop, you move forward while using the sword.
You must also follow up. The movements of the three must be integrated without any pause. These are the three methods of the sword. The body and mind are combined, the mind and Qi are combined, and Qi and force are combined. This is called the three combinations. These must be used in chopping.
I slowly came to understand.
"Roar..."
While he was practicing his sword, a loud roar suddenly came from not far away. After listening to it, Gongliang realized that it was in the distance, so he ignored it and continued to chop wood.
After practicing for a while, suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the forest, and then I saw several toothed jackals jumping out of the woods in front of me.
The toothed jackal looks like a wild dog with stripes and two sharp fangs at the corners of its mouth. It usually hunts in groups and is a relatively ferocious beast.
Seeing the toothed jackals running out, Gongliang immediately stopped practicing his sword and was on guard, but for some reason, these toothed jackals not only didn't bother him, but ran away with their tails between their legs.
Strange, what happened to these toothed jackals? The publican murmured in his heart. Instantly, he felt that something was wrong. The thing that could make these toothed jackals escape with their tails between their legs must be more ferocious beasts than them. It was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so they had to leave. Just as he was about to run away, he discovered
He seemed to be stared at by something, so he quickly put the knife in front of him to protect himself.
The wind blew, and a fishy smell hit his nostrils. Then, he saw the bushes and weeds in the forest in front of him were pushed aside, and a spotted leopard appeared in front of him.
The leopard looked at him with ruthless eyes, and there was still a trace of blood on the corner of its mouth. It seemed that it had just eaten, but was not full yet.
Gongliang read a book about beasts, which talks about the pupils of beasts. If they think you are harmless, their pupils will become round and their temperament will become lazy; if they stand up to form a narrow gap, then be careful.
Because this is a predator, and you may be its prey.
Therefore, Gong Liang did not dare to move, fearing that the leopard would pounce on him if he moved.
He slowly put down the knife, held the knife in both hands, and made a chopping motion, ready to deal with bad situations at any time.
After a while of confrontation, the spotted leopard seemed to want to leave and moved its butt back.
Gongliang looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the spotted leopard suddenly jumped forward. Gongliang's body couldn't help but tremble, not from fear of death, but from the excitement of the upcoming battle. The more dangerous it was, the clearer his heart became, and he stared,
He watched the leopard rush towards him.
Five meters, four meters, three meters, two meters...
Just when the leopard's claws were about to reach his body, he moved his knife, swung it upward, and danced out a cold knife wheel, like the charming moonlight, lighting up the polar night.
"puff"
After hitting the target, Gongliang quickly rolled aside to avoid the leopard's bite.
The leopard fell to the ground, and a line of blood poured out from its throat, instantly turning its forehead red. Gongliang's knife just cut open its throat.
The spotted leopard was injured, but its power remained intact. With a low roar, it wanted to pounce on Gongliang again. Unfortunately, it only took a few steps before lying on the ground and never moving again.
Gongliang stepped forward and poked with a knife. He was relieved when he found that the spotted leopard was dead. Fortunately, he had made some progress in practicing swordsmanship recently, otherwise it would have been worse this time. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and suddenly felt something at his feet.
Feeling a little weak, I quickly sat down to rest.
After a while, after regaining some strength, he returned with the leopard's body.
You can't stay here for long. Not to mention whether the toothed jackal that left earlier will come back. Even the smell of blood left by the spotted leopard may attract wild beasts in the forest.
When he walked to the entrance of the village, Tao saw the blood stains on his body and the leopard on his shoulder. He couldn't help but frowned and asked: "A Liang, what's going on?"
"I met a spotted leopard when I was practicing swordsmanship, so I killed it by the way." Gong Liangyun responded calmly, a bit pretentious.
Tao happily patted his shoulder and said, "Good boy."
People passing by looked at Gong Liang and smiled. Being able to hunt means adulthood, and there is an extra warrior in the tribe. In this primitive tribe, men are a symbol of strength and the capital to survive in this wild jungle.
.
After returning home, Gongliang cooked the leopard, gave some meat to the Dashi family, kept the rest, and knocked out one of the leopard's teeth as a souvenir.
He wanted to see how many beasts he could kill by the time he left the tribe.
