One day, Yichan was practicing swordplay when Jiang Hehe suddenly came over and said, "Let's go, let's go. Senior Brother Qin has a sword competition with several senior brothers today. Senior Sister Qingzi asked us to go and cheer."
By the time he arrived at Yanwuping, Qin Yongjie had already defeated his last opponent, winning five games in a row. The Qingshi Taoist disciples cheered and surrounded Senior Brother Qin as he left the field. Yichan also hurriedly joined the celebration team.
"Ms. Yang, that's Senior Brother Fu!" He He secretly poked Yi Chan. Yi Chan looked back and saw a young man in white sitting cross-legged, closing his eyes and breathing. This young man in white looked familiar and seemed to be in the right mood.
It was the young man in white who I met when I went up the mountain and was fighting against Senior Brother Qin.
Yichan didn't dare to look any further and followed everyone away.
The boy in white is none other than Bai Fu.
After everyone dispersed, Bai Fu opened his eyes and stood up, shaking off the dust on his body. "I used to be very depressed when I lost to Qin Yongjie. But now I take it lightly. Even if he wins, what can he do? Can he win Shaolin or Wudang? Today's master
After leaving seclusion, I have a lot of troubles, and only Master can solve them." Thinking of this, he unfolded his body skills and ran towards the Long Yinxia plank road halfway up the mountain.
It is the rainy season at this moment, and Qingcheng Mountain is lush and green. As you pass through the forest, there are many waterfalls on the road, pouring down from the cliffs on both sides and falling straight into the mountain stream. You can vaguely hear the sound of the mountain stream rushing down.
In the empty valley, there are occasionally echoes of the cooing of white-crowned swallowtails, the chirping of birds, and the mountains become more tranquil...
In less than a cup of tea, Bai Fu came to Longyinxia Plank Road. Under the cliff, a cold pool was green and clear, and pebbles in the pool were faintly visible. The water in the pool was ice-cold, and a coolness hit the face, making people feel peaceful and thoughtful.
Wake up. On the cliff, a waterfall falls from the sky. It is magnificent, free and easy, and has the potential to move forward...
On the east side of the cliff, there is a huge protruding stone. There is a pavilion on the stone. There are four characters engraved on the pavilion: "Xianlu Qingliang". A person in the pavilion, dressed in green Taoist clothes, stands tall, watching the water, listening to the waterfall, and enjoying the sea breeze.
, like an immortal, so carefree...
"Master!"
Bai Fu was raised by Taoist Master Qingxuan since he was a child, and he and Taoist Master Qingxuan were close friends as father and son. He had not seen his master in seclusion for a year, but now he saw him, and he was particularly happy. Bai Fu flew up along the plank road and knelt down at the pavilion.
Taoist Priest Qingxuan turned around with a friendly smile and a gentle voice: "Fu'er, did you lose again this time?"
"Yeah", Bai Fu felt a little embarrassed and licked his mouth.
Immediately he raised his head, full of stubbornness: "However, we didn't lose until the eighty-third round this time!"
"Hahaha..." Taoist Master Qingxuan laughed loudly. "Come, have a sip of tea first, and then give a lecture to the teacher."
Bai Fu vividly told the story of his fight with Qin Yongjie, and then said unconvinced: "Qingcheng Yunlong Jue, I can do it faster than Senior Brother Qin. I still had the upper hand fifty moves ago, forcing Senior Brother Qin to do nothing but
I swung my sword to defend. But the situation changed in the second half. Senior Brother Qin counterattacked and succeeded with one strike, stabbing me in the wrist. May I ask Master, why can't my fast sword survive a hundred moves in his hands?"
Taoist Priest Qingxuan did not answer directly. He pointed to the two cups of tea in front of him and asked, "Which one of the two cups of tea you drank just now do you like?"
Bai Fu pointed to the celadon cup, "I like this one. Although this tea tastes slightly bitter, the aroma hits your face as soon as you pick up the cup, and the aroma overflows in your mouth."
"What about this one?" Taoist Master Qingxuan asked, pointing to the white porcelain cup.
"This one is just average. Although it's not bitter and has a sweet aftertaste, it doesn't have enough aroma and is too light in the throat."
"Your description is very accurate." Taoist Master Qingxuan praised it. Then he added: "But when it comes to quality, I think this white porcelain cup is good."
"In tea appreciation, there is a saying that 'a hundred dollars will fight for fragrance, a thousand dollars will fight for purity'. That is to say, if a tea has distinctive characteristics in some aspects such as strength, smoothness, color, sweetness, and aroma, it will be unforgettable.
, it is a good tea, but it is only a tea priced at a hundred yuan. The color, aroma and taste are balanced, and there is no shortcoming in any aspect from smelling the aroma, entering the mouth, and entering the throat. A moderate and peaceful tea that makes people feel peaceful is better.
Tea, this is tea worth a thousand dollars."
"This is like a sword duel with your senior brother Qin. Your swordsmanship is sharp and fast, and each sword has an indomitable momentum. This is your advantage. Compared with senior brothers at the same level, you have obvious advantages, so you will be relaxed
Win the game. But all things in the world are yin and yang, and the opposites are unified. The advantages are disadvantages from another perspective. Therefore, the advantages of your swordsmanship are also your weaknesses. Every sword of yours has offense and no defense, and the sword power has been exhausted.
, there is no room for change. If you encounter an opponent who is weaker than you, it is better that the opponent has no time to counterattack. If you encounter a master and cannot hit with one blow, you will suffer the consequences."
"Senior Brother Qin, you have been immersed in swordsmanship for many years. Your swordsmanship is balanced between offense and defense. No matter whether you are attacking or defending, you leave room for every sword strike. Although the sword is not as fast as yours, because the sword power is not exhausted and you have a backhand, you have to change your moves.
Faster and more energy-saving. The more rounds he takes, the more advantage he has. This is the reason why you lost to Senior Brother Qin. It is also the application of the saying 'a hundred coins fight for beauty, a thousand dollars fights for purity' in swordsmanship."
When Bai Fu heard this, he felt like he was enlightened. He reviewed the sword duel with Senior Brother Qin just now. It was just as his master said, and he was convinced that he had lost. At the same time, he became even more curious.
"Master, a hundred dollars fights for fragrance, a thousand dollars fights for purity, then ten thousand dollars fights for what? What is the best swordsmanship in the world?"
"Haha, I can teach you. That's a good question!" Taoist priest Qingxuan stroked his long beard and nodded in praise.
"A hundred dollars fights for fragrance, a thousand dollars fights for purity, so what's the point of ten thousand dollars fighting for? Ten thousand dollars fights for life!"
"What is living?"
"To live is to change!"
"As far as tea is concerned, there are different changes from smelling the aroma, entering the mouth, and entering the throat. From fragrant to astringent, and then from astringent to sweet. As the saying goes, 'water drips from the tip of the tongue, fluids form on the surface of the tongue, and springs ring at the bottom of the tongue.'
People are instantly away from the hustle and bustle, forgetting things and themselves, feeling a sense of tranquility and tranquility in their hearts, and quickly enter the state of meditation and fetal breath."
"As far as swordsmanship is concerned, as the saying goes, 'There is a sword in the hand, but there is no sword in the heart.' Having a sword in the hand means that you are not limited to weapons. Your fingers can be swords, and branches can be swords. Sword fighting is not about who can do the trick better.
To be skillful, you have to defeat your opponent. To have no sword in mind means to point in front of the sword and not to have any preset sword moves in mind. Instead, you have to decide the speed, angle and strength of the sword according to the changes in the opponent's body shape. The opponent cannot predict you.
The next sword move cannot be defended or attacked accurately.
Although Qingcheng's body method imitates the wind of heaven and earth, and it is fast to move and dodge, in battle, the speed of sword drawing and attack speed are not the only keys. The important thing is the timing and method. Once the opponent starts to act, you should press Observe
, the four actions of adjusting, planning, and attacking are to strive for the last to strike first. Therefore, when the swordsmanship is mastered, it can also determine the shape of the attack based on the surrounding environmental terrain, wind, rain, thunder and lightning and other natural weather, and use the battlefield environment to kill
, factors such as the number of enemies create a tendency to suppress the opponent's psychology. Once the opponent's mind is in confusion, flaws will appear.
As the saying goes:
A hundred dollars fights for fragrance, a thousand dollars fights for purity, and a thousand dollars fights for liveliness.
So are people...
Ban Zhang is extremely strong, and Yi Wu is extremely soft. Although he has wisdom, it is better to take advantage of the situation.
Jingmai is the sweetest place and Iceland is the most lively place. Although there is a base, it is better to wait for the time.
The same is true with Tao...
Soldiers have no constant momentum, and water has no constant shape. Looking at swordsmanship from the perspective of the art of war, superb swordsmanship is constantly changing, making it impossible for your opponent to interpret your next move. If you have no way of knowing, you will naturally have no way to defend. If you have no way to defend, there will naturally be flaws everywhere. Close and Show the distance and show the closeness. Attack the unprepared and catch them by surprise. This sword technique is unpredictable and can be called a swordsman."
The more Bai Fu listened, the more excited he became, scratching his head and head, wishing he could compete with Qin Yongjie again right away.
"Master, is this the highest level of swordsmanship in the world?"
"That's not it yet."
"Isn't that what it is?" "Good boy, I'll strangle you!" Bai Fu's little heart almost jumped out of his chest.
"When Emperor Taizong of our dynasty was commenting on the art of war in the world with General Li Jing, he once said: 'The essence of the art of war in the world is to control people instead of controlling them.' The most exquisite swordsmanship is to mobilize the opponent's swordsmanship. Through your Moves, guide the opponent to move in your way. In this way, whatever move he will make next will be guided and controlled by you. If you want him to go to the right, guide him to the right. If you want him to go to the left, Mobilize him to the left. Whether your opponent is alive or dead, everything is in your hands. This sword technique can reach the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth. It cannot be taught first. It can be called a sword demon."
"Is there anything better?"
"There must be something more advanced, one that can shock the heaven and the earth, weep ghosts and gods, and can be called a swordsman. What is the state of this swordsmanship, I am afraid only those who can see the way of heaven can know. The essence of swordsmanship is a kind of worship of "incompleteness", which is We all understand that in a life that is impossible to be perfect, we go through trials in order to achieve some kind of possible perfection. I am also very curious as a teacher! Perceiving perfection in an imperfect world, even if it only takes a cup of tea." Qing Xuandao Chang sighed softly.
This night, Bai Fu tossed and turned, excited. Sometimes he fell asleep peacefully, and sometimes he woke up. He was confused and restless all night long.
Taoist Priest Qingxuan helped Bai Fu open a door to the "Tao Zang" treasure house. What is in the door? How much will the dream chaser pay for it? Young Bai Fu still doesn't know at this moment...
