He Mu, who was barely literate, shook his head blankly: "I don't know."
Meng Qi held the book in his left hand and the jug in his right, poured himself a cup, took a sip, swallowed slowly, and finally said: "This sentence is very controversial. Qi, qi of heaven, yin can form things, yang can be living beings, heaven can nourish things, the three qi are combined, and all things are born. There are also great scholars who read ancient books and give another explanation. The three are mixed, yin and yang are mixed, and the universe is transformed. , evolve all things, so the poem asks who is the body and who is the evolution."
He Mu was like a duck listening to thunder, confused, only felt that Mr. Su's words were in the sky, so he could only mutter: "Mr. Su, how do you think to explain it?"
"Tai Chi is a state of chaos without division. Its movement is yang, and its stillness is yin. One movement and one stillness are the roots of each other. The same is true for one yang and one yin. They generate and transform each other. Therefore, if you ask who is the body and who is the evolution, follow the trend. And change!" Meng Qi did not explain the poem directly, but tried to answer this question.
He Mu became more and more at a loss, feeling that his head was not enough. He couldn't understand what Mr. Su said at all, so he could only answer with a hmm.
After answering, Meng Qi smiled leisurely: "This is the principle of heaven and earth, and it can naturally be reflected in martial arts moves. After making a move, the moves contain yin and yang, and each other generates and transforms each other. It changes with the situation, changes with the enemy, and even touches." , can be yin or yang, it is difficult to distinguish."
This is a high-level principle, Meng Qi understood it from "Tianwen", but the principle is empty and abstract after all, although many people understand it, but it is very difficult to truly reflect it on the moves and martial arts, and on the details I can only figure it out slowly. It is best to have a similar martial art for Meng Qi to refer to, so that he can quickly comprehend the essence of this kind, which can be used for swordsmanship and swordsmanship, and even the essence of all martial arts.
Thinking about it now, Yao Xiaogui's yin and yang swords are somewhat similar. If he really takes the path of swords and swords in the future, this will also be one of the general ideas.
Speaking of martial arts moves, He Mu finally understood a little bit, and said in a low voice: "Some moves have both yin and yang."
"It's different." Meng Qi shook his head and said with a smile, "The important thing is how to transform."
I don't understand He Mu looked at Meng Qi anxiously: "Mr. Su, is there an answer in the poem?"
Meng Qi smiled and said: "No, the whole article asks questions about the nature of the heaven and the earth. It may not be so profound and unfathomable in itself, but if anyone can answer these questions one by one, they will really touch the truth of the heaven and the earth. And for the same question, different masters have different answers, and different solutions lead to different paths.¡±
"Oh." Still don't understand He Mu felt more and more that Mr. Su is a profound and profound person, so he thought about it and hurriedly said, "Mr. Su, today I"
"I'll talk about it after I finish reciting." Meng Qi lowered his right hand, put down his wine glass, and continued to recite "Heavenly Questions":
"There are nine levels in the circle, who can save them?"
"On the occasion of the nine days, place the family?"
"The sun and the moon are safe, and the stars are safe?"
In the empty and cold courtyard, the sound of reading is soft and clear, and the sound is in my ears, as if I am asking the sky and the earth.
Dried plums are old, a little fiery red, the fire is like seedlings, and the fragrance of wine is overflowing.
Although he couldn't understand this poem with simple words, He Mu felt that his mind was gradually calming down. The previous joy, anxiety, and apprehension seemed to disappear slowly with the sound of reading, and his mind was completely washed away.
Troubles are far away, and the body is purified. He Mu forgets the pressure and sorrow, and only feels peace and joy.
"Win today?" Suddenly, he was "woke up" by Mr. Su's warm voice.
"Yes." He Mu looked at Mr. Su's face. Although he may only be four or five years older than himself, like an older brother, he has a mature temperament and a good conversation. After getting along for a long time, he will really be regarded as a well-read poet. Mr. Books.
"The first fight" He Mu explained the process of the fight in detail, and finally said: "Thanks to Mr. Su for your guidance, the owner and master let me participate in the martial arts competition."
He anxiously waited to ask for advice again.
"Martial arts competition?" Meng Qi held the "Heavenly Questions" booklet in his hand, and asked questions instead of answering.
He Mu knew that Mr. Su was a scholar who concentrated on studying, so he explained: "The martial arts are very prosperous in Yedu, but the Wang family is powerful, and the other sects are few. Many people who are interested in martial arts have no chance to practice. The branch of the family has opened a martial arts gym, which only focuses on training and does not occupy fields and mines, in order to teach ordinary people like us and give us a chance to make progress.¡±
"After laying the foundation, no matter whether it is going to a sect to learn from a teacher, or participating in martial arts, and gaining a reputation, it is possible to talk about it."
"Martial arts have been around for a hundred years. There are many martial arts in Yedu, and secret contests are indispensable. Later, Chiyang martial arts and other eightThe Martial Arts Academy proposes that it be held every three years, and each academy will send outstanding disciples to participate to determine the rankings. Because of its great influence and wide scope, Zhoujun Wang, Huanhua Sword Sect, Yedu Huang, Chaoshengmen, and Luo Xiashenjianmen and others will send people to watch, and select outstanding people, who will either become disciples of the sect, or join the aristocratic family to practice, and will be guest ministers in the future. "
He is not very old and has little literacy. He should have stuttered and couldn't make sense of such a complicated matter, but it seems that the owner of the gymnasium often tells them the meaning of the martial arts competition, so he speaks freely without any obstruction.
"Zhoujun Wang, Huanhua Sword Sect" Meng Qi repeated in a low voice. In the past six months, except for Qi Zhengyan who often came to compete, and occasionally looked at the list of people and the masters of Zhoujun, he was almost out of touch with the martial arts world. Now that I hear the familiar name again, I feel a little emotional for a while.
After drinking a glass of wine, Meng Qi looked at He Mu with a smile: "So you are worried that the 'story' is too simple when you participate in the martial arts competition?"
"Yes." He Mu said a little shyly, this is exactly what he came here for.
Meng Qi stood up, paced around the courtyard with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Indeed, your current story is too simple, you only have to start and close, and the other party is not from your martial arts school, so it is not easy to be affected by this story. Hehe, your response in the second competition was actually pretty good, you know how to use your brain, a child can be taught."
After being praised by Mr. Su, He Mu couldn't help but raise his mouth. This is his proud work.
Meng Qi turned to look at him: "So, you have to prepare more complicated and more elaborate stories to make them addicted and make them fall into the trap consciously."
"Mr. Su, how should I prepare?" He Mu subconsciously held his breath, expecting advice.
Meng Qi thought for a while and said, "Telling a story with swordsmanship is a very interactive thing. After you tell a story for a while, you have to predict the other party's reaction, or guess the possible responses of the other party in advance, and then prepare different plots separately. , Let the other party fall into the trap of your preset story without knowing it."
"For example, after using 'A Thousand Sails of the Sea', the opponent may directly attack the lower abdomen, or condescendingly slash, or If you want to respond in time, you have to stay strong in the previous moves"
"Of course, the correct way is to let the other party have to follow your story, and can only make a few choices, but you definitely can't do it now"
Meng Qi "made up" a "story" that wasn't too long but not too short by using the "Listening to Chaos Sword Technique". Every interaction corresponds to a plot. Complicated and complex, it's within He Mu's understanding. After all, it's everyday life I just can't remember the sword skills I learned.
He gritted his teeth, gulped it down, and forcibly memorized it, only to rehearse every story and explain every trap when he went back.
"Do you remember?" After editing, Meng Qi looked at He Mu with a smile.
He Mu nodded vigorously: "Remember!"
After finishing speaking, he asked in confusion: "Why is the story made up like this? Why does the other party have to respond like this?"
"Good question, children can be taught!" Meng Qi laughed, this is the real core essence, "But it's useless if you know it now."
He Mu didn't bother, and said a little more confidently than before: "Mr. Su, I'll take my leave first."
"Go back, don't be nervous." Meng Qi patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Use your sword and tell them a good story."
When He Mu left, the courtyard door closed, Qi Zhengyan walked out of the room, and said in a little thought: "Why do you want to teach him the principles of swordsmanship?"
Even he, after listening to Meng Qi's narration, had a lot of enlightenment, and had new feelings about the various sword techniques in the past.
Meng Qi smiled and said: "A superficial reason and a real reason, Senior Brother Qi, which one do you want to hear?"
"The superficial reason" Qi Zhengyan had been fooled many times and decided to do the opposite.
"I'm pondering and practicing Yijian's layout, trying to move from simple to complex, so I borrowed Xiao He Mu's hands to make up stories and share them with opponents who have never met or seen their moves, and see how the effect is. It's like setting up a chess game in advance and inviting people to join it at will." Meng Qi said with a serious expression.
Qi Zhengyan nodded lightly. This is a good reason, as it should be. If he hadn't been more inclined to the Huntian Baojian now, he might as well give it a try.
He took a light breath: "Is this a superficial reason?"
This should be the real reason!
Meng Qi chuckled and said, "The real reason is only four words."
"Huh?" Qi Zhengyan was a little curious.
Meng Qi turned his back to him: "Free time, self-willed."
A gust of cold wind blew, and a plum blossom fell to the ground, forming ice crystals. After Qi Zhengyan twitched his face twice, he slowly let go of his clenched fist: "I've exchanged all your gems for silver notes."
Considering his own channels and concentration on cultivation, Meng Qi asked Qi Zhengyan to help him exchange the gemstones obtained from the horse bandits into silver notes, so that he could buy the sharp weapon and long sword unobtrusively.
Qi Zhengyan had many "bosses" in Ye, and he didn't dare to make too much noise. It took half a year to slowly exchange all the gems into bank notes, totaling 12,700 taels.
"Langya Bank, hey, it's from the snack shop" Meng Qi muttered with a smile when he saw the banknote.
Qi Zhengyan thought for a while, and said: "The martial arts competition is very important. If you want to continue to hide your whereabouts and not be noticed by the world, you'd better stop in moderation."
"Well, I have a measure." Meng Qi nodded solemnly, and began to think about buying a sharp weapon and a long sword later. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)??. "
