sword sentient beings

Chapter 328 Kenshin
"Before practicing, there are some things that must be understood. Otherwise, it will be crooked at the beginning, and the more you work hard, the more crooked it will become. If the foundation is wrong, it will not come back."

Fushi Chi's expression was very serious, not at all like he was dizzy from drinking in the past, his eyes were very bright.

"The first one is the relationship between the sword and the swordsman. You know this too, right?"

Tang Zhao replied: "I know, it's the relationship between the host and the guest." This was Xing Ji's special reminder to him.

Chi Qianli nodded and said: "Exactly, it is not the master and the slave, nor the master and the object, but the master and the guest. The master and the guest are relatively equal, but after all, there is a problem of east wind and west wind. As far as our cultivation is concerned, it is better for the guest to offend the master than Master Lingke."

In other words, it is better for the swordsman to overwhelm the sword than for the sword to overwhelm the swordsman.

Tang Zhaodao: "This is what you just said, take me first."

Chi Qianli said: "Exactly, you have savvy. We swordsmen practice, and the sword element must be accumulated with the sword weapon. The sword heart must communicate with the sword weapon. Although the swordsmanship is based on self-enlightenment, it must be obeyed." Sword intent. Come and go, the sword is the main thing in everything. We swordsmen have become the cordyceps of the sword. Some people are greedy for progress, and often surrender themselves from the sword. They practice quickly at the beginning, but they will inevitably lose themselves later on. Many souls are shaken and become idiots."

"But there is another kind of person, no matter what the sword's intention is, they just follow their own rhythm wholeheartedly, and even treat the sword as an enemy to be conquered. This kind of person is too self-righteous, and it is difficult to make progress without waiting for the future. Although It may be possible to create a few swordsmanship by rote, and you can still fight, but the heart of the sword is in danger of collapsing at any time. If you don't pay attention, the body of the sword can collapse directly. Some people of this type are too stubborn and overconfident. Some people But there is no reliable inheritance, I don’t know the proportion here, maybe it’s luck to get the sword, ignorant practice, muddleheaded understanding of the sword, even the sword intent and sword image can’t be distinguished, it can only be said that it’s a blessing and a disaster according to."

Tang Zhao nodded, he had seen a swordsman like this before, he had forgotten what it was called, but he was a bandit anyway.Because of the collapse of the sword heart, a serious swordsman was beaten to death by him who was still an undisciplined person.At that time, he only thought that this person was stupid and greedy, he didn't understand sword intent, and that he had brought it upon himself. Later, he realized that he might really understand nothing, and no one taught him how to do it.

The sword has given some lucky people from humble backgrounds a chance to ascend to the sky in one step, but there is no one to teach them the road ahead, and it is really thorny every step of the way.Just like the first batch of native swordsmen back then, most of them died on the road of exploration, and only one in a hundred could reach swordsman.They have summed up the experience and lessons by taking themselves as an example, which makes the road of future generations easier.

"At the earliest time, someone suggested that the true path of perfection is that the sword and the swordsman have the same goals, it doesn't matter whether you follow or not, but move forward hand in hand, and most seek the state of unity of mind and spirit, and the harmony of fish and water."

Deputy Envoy Chi sighed and said, "But it's actually too idealistic. Reality is not a play, let alone a dream. It doesn't happen just because you want it. Some people are born smart and lucky enough to find the best match for them." I want to pursue this path. But there are still very few people who have reached the end. After all, people and swords are not born with the same mind. It is not so much that you and the sword have the same heart and mind, but temporarily put aside the dispute, and it is not time to explode. .Once it breaks out... well, that's how many power swords come from."

Tang Zhao thought of the Xiezhi Sword—such a righteous senior judge, such a righteous sword, logically speaking, it was a match made in heaven, and it ended in tragedy.No one even knows until now: Why did he die with the sword?

Deputy Chi was in a daze, and said: "So the second thing we must know is that you and I are mortals. It's luck to match the sword, it doesn't mean that the sword was born for you, don't mix the sword with it without authorization. I want to be a natural one, let alone you who are so good, Jian will fall in love with you and change for you."

When he said this, he paused, and suddenly thought that Tang Zhao's sword was really made for him, cast by him himself, matched instantly, isn't this a match made in heaven?
But at this time Tang Zhao still nodded his head to be taught, Deputy Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "It means to face up to the fact that you are an ordinary person, and don't just focus on the legendary road and pursue some fairy swordsman, but be down-to-earth For real cultivation, you must maintain humility and self-confidence. Focus on yourself and try your best to manage Jianxin."

Tang Zhao said thoughtfully, "The word 'management' is very interesting."

Fushi Chi said: "These two words were proposed by the lord. Ordinary sects would use the word practice. But we are doing practical things, no more vulgar than those great sects who don't eat the fireworks of the world. There is nothing wrong with the words. Management, regard Jianxin as a business that invests all of its worth, and if you fail, you will become benevolent. If you manage it carefully and conscientiously, and keep vigilant at all times, you will be able to go more safely. When you become Jianxia, ​​you have Once you have reached the realm and have a unique understanding, then you can adjust it?"

Tang Zhao nodded repeatedly, feeling that he had benefited a lot.

After the opening ceremony, Deputy Envoy Chi continued to talk about the actual dry goods: "Put the position right, and then talk about sword heart. The most important thing for a swordsman is sword heart. Although it is said that becoming a swordsman is marked by realizing the first sword technique. But in fact, if Once Jianxin reaches the realm, there is no obstacle. The rest is nothing more than accumulating sword energy and waiting for an opportunity to comprehend the most suitable sword technique. That's all a matter of course."

Tang Zhao deeply agrees, using the sword manual as an example.Jian Xin is listed in the column after Jian Yi, and there is also a realm behind it.The swordsmanship respects the last seat, and the sword element does not show at all.It can be seen that Jianpu believes that Jianxin is the most important, and it is directly related to the realm.

"The first state of sword heart is 'golden stone is open'. This only needs to be understood by yourself, that is, to face the heart directly and be sincere to the sword. The more pure the heart, the easier it is to achieve. Therefore, young children have the ability to become swordsmen. Advantages. But the second realm is 'heart-to-heart', which is much more difficult. You must have certain experiences and opportunities to achieve."

"There is a heart-to-heart connection. You have to have a heart-to-heart with Jianxin. When you understand Jianxin, you must communicate with Jianxin more to enhance understanding and cultivate tacit understanding. It will come naturally over time. Don't make cars behind closed doors, and don't play "souls know each other, it's all in words" 'That set of words, the words are still the same, if there are problems, solve them as soon as possible, and don't drag things out."

……

Why does it sound more and more like falling in love?
Tang Zhaodao: "I know the principle, is there any specific method?"

Everything about Wu Jian in the book can only be discussed in general terms, and there is no specific operation, let alone exercises.

Fushi Chi said helplessly: "I really don't have it. I just think about it, and I think about my unique sword image and sword intent. Everyone is different. Don't talk about the method, even the idea can't be shared. If Using an old sword has some advantages in this aspect. If the previous swordsman was a swordsman and left a detailed understanding, future generations should be able to become a swordsman according to the scriptures. It’s just that it’s difficult to go up, and this is the price of laziness.”

"There is no shortcut to the new sword. Wujian is that you hold the sword and ponder it. When your heart moves, it is almost the same as the sword can interact with each other. Compared with gold and stone, there is one more 'mutual relationship' ', it is not that you are honest with the sword unilaterally, or that the sword obeys your orders unilaterally. There are a few small points. The first one - to interact with the sword, the easiest way is to often call out the sword elephant to play. You are like old Bi An of Xing, often calls out to play games like teasing cats, the more familiar the better. We two sword elephants are relatively empty, but it doesn't matter, often calling out to try to delay the time of arrival, it is good for getting to know each other."

Tang Zhao nodded, planning to stay in a safe place and try to keep the sword elephant coming.

"Also, experience more, fight more. The so-called tacit understanding is honed little by little. Even if you don't use the sword to fight, even if you often fly around with the sword. The other thing is to improve your spiritual power, don't give up practicing Xuangong , especially in cultivating the spirit, with high inspiration and strong spirit, Jian Xin will be enlightened quickly."

Speaking of this, he solemnly said: "For a while, it was popular to directly visualize the sword elephant, cultivate spiritual power, and at the same time increase the tacit understanding with the sword elephant. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone. But it was quickly abandoned. "

Tang Zhao pondered, "Could it be because of the host Lingke?"

Chi Qianli praised: "You are really smart, that's exactly how you are. You use the sword elephant as a visualization, and you can't stop immersing yourself in it. Gradually, you will focus on the sword elephant and distort your position. The harm will not be apparent for a while, and it will be terrible for a long time. But you It is best not to deviate too far from the sword intent in your conception. Otherwise, it will hinder you from realizing the sword. When you are a swordsman, don’t forget your balance at all times.”

He suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh, there is one more section. You don't need to say it now, and it might be harmful if you say it, but you are so smart, I can tell you in advance. Have you already sensed Yuan Gong?"

Tang Zhao nodded.

The so-called Yuan Gong can be said to be a practice method, or it can be said to be not.That is a Zhoutian route to accumulate sword energy.

This route was not taught by others, but was realized by the sword species after the golden stone was opened.

This line connects the sword and the swordsman into a whole, and performs a big Zhoutian cycle.Through this cycle of heaven and earth, you can quickly accumulate sword energy, which is much faster than the sword alone.In essence, this is very similar to the method of transferring inner strength and inner strength.But this kind of circulation is based on the sword, because the sword element is finally stored in the sword. The swordsman can draw the power of the sword element at will, but he cannot store the sword element himself.The sword essence just passes through the swordsman's body and the meridians and acupoints, so that the swordsman gets used to the sword essence of the sword, and tempers the body by the way.

The sword essence route of each sword is unique, so this cannot be taught to each other, so it is not a skill, but out of habit, it is still called "Yuan Gong".

A swordsman's daily practice, apart from the extremely difficult to quantify the Enlightenment Sword, is to practice Yuan Gong, accumulate sword Yuan, and temper the body. This is also the most visible and tangible progress for a swordsman.The biggest advantage of a senior swordsman over a young swordsman is the thickness of the sword.

Chi Qianli said: "A senior from the Procuratorate told me that although Yuan Gong is the only one, swordsmen will more or less change their movement routes in the later stage. Even if the efficiency will decrease, it will be good for Jian Xin."
