If Chen Pingan were alone, even if he was carrying a heavy load into the mountains, it would not be difficult to walk a hundred miles in a day. You must know that during this period, he would have to cross streams and gorges and climb cliffs, so Chen Pingan brought red with him this time. The little girl in the cotton-padded jacket walked so easily that when she had nothing to do, she started practicing pile walking. Because Li Baoping was by her side, she did not use the kind of boxing with all her strength and energy, but it was relatively natural. , even in order to take care of Li Baoping, he had to deliberately slow down the walking speed and reduce the distance between steps. This made Chen Pingan, who had finally found the trick, feel like he was suddenly knocked back to his original shape and became awkward again.
The two of them had walked almost twenty miles at this time. Li Baoping still had some energy left and did not appear to be in pain. The little girl just stretched out her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and asked, "Uncle Master, what are you doing?" Are you practicing boxing?"
Chen Pingan stopped walking and nodded: "Yes."
Li Baoping asked again: "Then you know you are practicing. This set of boxing, the foundation of the boxing, where is the source of Qi?"
Chen Ping'an was confused, "How to say? I only know that there are many acupoints in the human body. The main purpose of being able to write a few hundred words was to remember the names of those acupoints. But before I had time to ask, a girl named Ning didn’t tell me anything about my boxing manual. When it comes to boxing training, you can’t take shortcuts. You have to work hard bit by bit. Sister Ruan, whom you know, said that she is a swordsman. Her family’s luck path is not easy to spread, so I told her at that time There was no in-depth conversation.”
In fact, at that time, the straw-shoe boy felt that he was destined to end up in a small town, so he had plenty of time and opportunity to ask Ruan Xiu.
Li Baoping's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face, and he said in a more serious tone: "Uncle Master! You don't even know this, yet you dare to practice boxing? Do you know that practicing boxing indiscriminately, especially External boxing can easily damage the fundamental vitality. Practicing martial arts is actually similar to Kanyu's geomaster's search for dragons and acupoints. The difference is that geomasters look for acupoints in mountains and rivers, while martial artists search for and dig out the treasures in their own bodies. After finding them, , you have to do it properly before you can truly succeed in martial arts. No, no, no, no, little master, I have to explain this to you, and then you can learn boxing!"
Look! She looked determined. Chen Pingan thought for a while and realized that it was not a bad thing. There happened to be an old willow tree with a crooked neck in front of it. Most of it tilted towards the water surface of the stream, like an unfinished arch bridge, so he pulled Li Baoping to rest against the trunk of the tree. The girl lost her temper and insisted on sitting down, so Chen Pingan had no choice but to carry her to the tree trunk and stand aside to prevent her from falling.
She sat carelessly on the tree, like a young master teaching at a school for the first time. She was in high spirits. She coughed and planned to have a good talk with the young master to avoid going astray. If Yizhen loses her body through training, then she will regret it and feel heartbroken to death? Li Baoping said seriously: "The reason why I know some general principles of martial arts is because there is a maid sister named Zhu Lu in my family. She has been watched by our ancestors since she was a child.She has no talent for martial arts, and I am very close to her. Sister Zhu Lu is a boring person and only likes to talk to me about her innermost thoughts, so I know what martial arts training is like. It's a pity that when I was six years old, I secretly followed Sister Zhu Lu and walked on that thing called a ground cow pile. It was a lot of fun. The tallest wooden pile was almost as high as the roof. But one time the sole of my foot slipped and I couldn't. I accidentally fell down, but actually I was fine. Sister Zhu Lu was still implicated by me and gave my ancestor a severe punishment. After that, Sister Zhu Lu practiced martial arts in the morning and evening every time, and also hid in the house to take a bath. When it was in the potion bucket, he no longer played with me. ”
Chen Pingan felt a little guilty. The so-called Sister Zhu Lu in the little girl’s mouth might be the strong girl who hit him twice on the chest and head that day. At that time, he secretly broke into the Li family’s mansion and used The slingshot shattered two porcelain bird food jars. The maid who was guarding the little girl in Zhengyang Mountain discovered his traces first, quickly climbed over the wall and onto the roof, and finally jumped towards the roof where he was. , Chen Pingan still thinks that she is very powerful every time he thinks about it.
Li Baoping couldn't help but say everything to this guy who was always unwilling to admit that he was his junior uncle. For example, the coward Shi Chunjia's family has a shop. If they do well in business, they can make money and make money. Therefore, Shi Chunjia's shop is one of the oldest time-honored brands in our town. But If you only go out but don't come in, and don't know how to attract customers, you will soon be stretched thin, and the store will definitely have to close, right? "
As soon as he heard about doing business and making money, Chen Ping'an, a financial fan, immediately became enlightened and suddenly said: "Everyone has some financial resources. If you practice boxing well, you can make money from money. No, it's just a loss-making business. If you don't practice martial arts at all, how about guarding your ancestral business? "
Li Baoping thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's pretty much what it means. Uncle Master, have you heard of this saying? It is called practicing boxing to attract evil, especially those outsiders who claim to start fighting every three years and go out to beat people to death. Their punches are fierce, they can chop and hang, and they look majestic. When they hit people, they yell, "hum, ha, ha." In fact, it hurts the body the most, because they haven't found the vein at all, and they have entered it illegally. Many people will fall ill when they reach middle age. It is hard to say whether they will have old age or not. Even if they do, they will be very miserable. Because from the first day they practice boxing, they are not nourishing their energy and health, but are being prodigal and squandering their family fortune. ”
In the words of the ancestors of the Li family, the girl Li Baoping was born without a butt. When the little girl in the red cotton coat said that she was excited, she was about to stand up from the old willow trunk when she was knocked down by her little girl. The uncle pushed the thought back with a look, and continued angrily: "So, little uncle, you must take this as a warning, and you must find the real way to practice boxing. There are thousands of boxing techniques in the world, and the reasons why their achievements are high and low are , the future may be big or small, it all depends on whether you can find at least two natal acupoints in each boxing technique. After you find it, you can then see if you can find the best route and the most nourishing acupoints along the way. Like the spring breeze turning into rain,Nourishes all things. Even if your boxing skills are not of high quality, as long as you follow the right path, you can still strengthen your body and prolong your life. However, if you go astray, the better your boxing skills, the easier it is to do bad things. ”
Chen Pingan fell into deep thought. He could feel the presence of that energy. He felt like there was a homeless little fire dragon in his body, wandering randomly around a big furnace. Before, this fire dragon was a bit Like a headless fly, it bumps around everywhere and turns around after hitting a wall. Now its range of activities is getting wider and wider, but it will eventually return to the Qi Palace in its abdomen and wander around, like a child who goes out to play. After being tired, it will I want to go home, but I haven't found the real door yet.
This mysterious and mysterious air flow has never brought any discomfort or pain to Chen Pingan. Instead, it makes the young man feel like basking in the sun in the winter. With a warm feeling, Chen Pingan's perception of the body's internal organs has been extremely keen since he was very young, so he can quickly detect what is wrong with him. Cai Jinjian of Yunxia Mountain originally said in Mu Ping Alley that he would not live long, She may have thought that the back alley boy only thought she was joking, but in fact, Chen Pingan confirmed that her statement was correct on the spot.
Since he couldn't detect anything wrong, Chen Pingan just let the flow go, deep in his heart. There is also a trace of curiosity, wanting to see which acupoint it will choose as its mansion.
Li Baoping swayed her calves and crossed her arms, "It is said that it practices martial arts. Basically, the word "dispersing qi" is very domineering. It is completely different from the qi cultivator's method of nourishing qi and refining qi. The latter is that the more the merrier, every penny counts. It is different in martial arts. When you find the initial qi, it is like trying to Fighting through pass after pass, all the aura that originally resided in the acupoints and acupoints was eliminated, and transformed into the earliest breath. Finally, the whole body and mind moved in one breath. In the blink of an eye, the air flow circulated for hundreds of miles. Hundreds of miles, the ninth realm can even reach thousands of miles away. All of a sudden, the potential of the whole body is mobilized. A general can command thousands of troops like an arm. It is so powerful that one can imagine that it is no better than the Qi practitioner. Flying in the air is a bad idea. ”
Li Baoping “Sister Zhu Lu said that as a martial arts master, flying over eaves and walking over walls is nothing. He can travel far away in the wind just like a Qi practitioner. After that, once he reaches the ultimate grand master , slaughtering those Qi practitioners with eyes above their heads is like twisting the neck of a chicken with your hands, killing people with a snap of your fingers, and doing it at your fingertips. "
Chen Ping'an asked with a smile: "If practicing martial arts is really so good, of course it is a good thing, but why is it that the difficulty of killing people is measured by whether it is good or not? "
Li Baoping was stunned, shook his head honestly and said: "Then I never thought that it was Sister Zhu Lu who said this. When she said these words, Sister Zhu Lu was very yearning, Just like I dream about catching a fish every day.
After thinking for a while, the little girl said: "But if you think about it carefully, according to Sister Zhu Lu, it seems that martial arts practitioners and practitioners are inherently difficult to deal with, and the latter like to look down on them." The former think that practicing martial arts is a lowly profession, and they are poor people who are not qualified and cannot practice, so they are regarded as inferior people.The warriors were called the watchdogs of secular dynasties. The former feels that those cultivators, with their eyes above their heads and their nostrils pointing to the sky, are not good people. Why are warriors crawling around in the rivers and lakes? They are just chivalrous people using martial arts to break the ban. Those Qi practitioners are clearly just a small group. People, however, occupy countless famous mountains, rivers and caves and blessed places, and are still proud of themselves. They claim that the immortals on the mountain cultivate immortality with magic and supernatural powers, and are respected and supported by the mortals and warriors below. This is a matter of course. "
Li Baoping suddenly laughed, "But you don't have to worry about these disputes, little uncle. They are very boring." ”
Li Baoping suddenly hesitated to speak. She seemed to have remembered something, but it was a little hard to say, and she felt a little guilty. In the end, she decided to be honest with her. She really didn’t want to deceive her little uncle. , the little girl apologized with a sad face: "Sister Zhu Lu and her father, Uncle Zhu He, were originally going to go to the southern border of Sui Dynasty with us, but I was afraid that you didn't like them, so I tricked them into going to the east of the town. Wait for us at the door. If Uncle Zhu He was here, he would be able to teach the young master martial arts uncle, because Sister Zhu Lu has been practicing martial arts with her father since she was a child. My ancestors told me privately that although Zhu He has limited talent in martial arts, he can teach others He is a good martial artist and can be called a 'Master'. Even if he is thrown into one of those wealthy mansions with the prefix 'Fu' in the capital of Great Li, he can still be a guest. Now Uncle Zhu He is gone, and Sister Zhu Lu is gone too..."
Chen Ping'an quickly comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay. Although I don't have a master in my boxing practice, I only have a boxing manual. Now I don't even know the words on the boxing manual, let alone practice blindly. I only practice one walking stance and one standing stance, but it has been confirmed that it can nourish the body and will not harm the body. How to practice to become famous, I guess I have to wait until I can understand the boxing manual myself. This is not urgent. I originally practiced boxing not for some realm, but just to survive. I didn’t think too much about it. "
But Li Baoping had obviously gotten into trouble with his own thoughts, and his thoughts were traveling thousands of miles away. So the little girl felt more and more guilty as she spoke. The corners of her mouth went down, and there were signs of crying." When a martial artist practices martial arts, it is up to the individual to be led by the master to practice, but the master is very important. The threshold of the door he is led through has high and low thresholds. Moreover, after the master led him through the first door, he had to give up because of his limited ability. , I could still take it to the backyard door in one breath. The situation was completely different. Therefore, the master must be a master, and you cannot just look for famous masters with great reputations.
The little girl sniffed, tears about to flow out of her eyes, "Uncle Master, you are a once-in-a-century martial arts genius. If I delay your becoming a master, I should What should I do? ”
Chen Pingan no longer cared about how she came to the absurd conclusion that she was a genius. The top priority was not to let her cry. The little girl became sad, which felt really heartbreaking. , not at all like ordinary children acting coquettishly and playing around, Chen Pingan had an idea, suddenly raised his hand, put his palm in front of the little girl, clenched his fist gently, and said one word loudly, "Stop!" ”
Li Baoping is a smart kid with a very fast brain. He was stunned for a moment and stopped bursting into tears. "Little uncle, what are you doing?"
Chen Pingan shook his fist and said with a laugh: "How about it? Junior uncle is so awesome, I will make you stop crying right away."
In order to comfort the little girl, Chen Pingan was willing to risk everything. For once, he officially admitted that he was her junior uncle.
The little girl immediately burst into laughter.
She felt that it was not that she was no longer sad, but that she was more happy than sad.
Chen Pingan was relieved, resting his hands on the trunk of the old willow tree, and then leaned down and sat next to the little girl.
Under their feet were two backpacks, one large and one small.
Li Baoping said softly: "Uncle Zhu He often told Sister Zhu Lu that if you don't practice true boxing, you will be a ghost in three years. If you practice boxing to find the truth, you can kill the god of death with one punch. People who practice martial arts, Once she is sick, it is much more difficult than treating ordinary people. Sister Zhu Lu almost couldn't survive it twice. After the first time, she didn't recover for half a year. During that time, she was like a sick person. I couldn’t even lift the bucket. The second time was even worse. After I heard the noise, I moved a small bench over and secretly poked the window paper. I saw Sister Zhu Lu rolling around in pain on the bed, and no one else could press her down. In the end, her fingernails were open and bleeding. It was very pitiful. Finally, the family asked the shopkeeper of Yang's shop to send medicine. The pain seemed to stop and she gradually stabilized. But the ancestor was standing at the door of the yard. , did not walk into the yard, shook his head and turned around, seeming a little regretful and disappointed. When I asked about it later, the ancestor only said that his life was saved by the medicinal materials, but the hope of the eighth realm was lost, so there is no need to go too far in the future. Cultivate Sister Zhu Lu, otherwise it will harm her. If you are lucky enough to achieve great fortune, you can enter the seventh realm. If you are not lucky, you will be in the sixth realm. "
Li Baoping. Turning his head, he said worriedly: "Little uncle, you must not be so sick. I don't understand anything and I will definitely be dumbfounded!"
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "No, and Even if there is, of course I mean just in case, then don’t be afraid, I can withstand the pain, I’m not bragging to you.”
Li Baoping was doubtful and stretched out his hand to him. He gently twisted his arm, "Uncle, does it hurt?"
Chen Pingan patted her little head, and then looked at the path where the two came from, "I know, uncle." When was the most uncomfortable time?"
The little girl shook her head vigorously like a rattle.
Chen Pingan rested his hands on the tree trunk, crossed his calves, and swayed gently like a little girl. The young man squinted his eyes and chuckled: "This is my second time going into the mountain alone. I was just over four years old and less than five years old when I was collecting herbs. When I went out, I wanted to collect the most herbs to bring home, so I deliberately picked the biggest basket. Then I felt tired before I even left the town. When I walked out of the town and could see the mountains, it was a sunny day and I had a basket on my shoulders.The rope was pulled so hard that it hurt, especially my back. In fact, the pain was okay at that time, and I wasn’t particularly scared. The thing that made me feel desperate was that the mountain looked so far away, as if I could never reach it in this life. In addition, it had not been long since I first entered and exited the mountain, so the blisters on the soles of my feet quickly revolted. Then, my little uncle, I gritted my teeth and cried while walking, and kept asking myself secretly, "This is not the case yet." Walk to the foot of the mountain, or go home. Anyway, you are young, the basket is so big, and the mountain road is so far, it is not shameful to go home, and your mother will definitely not blame you. "
Li Baoping listened intently and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Junior, did you give up in the end? ”
The straw-shoe boy smiled and shook his head: “No, at that time I suddenly thought that no matter what, just walk to the foot of the mountain and look back when you get there.” Then I really walked to the foot of the mountain. When I was sitting on the ground crying, I thought again, how about going up the mountain, picking an herb and then returning home? Then I started climbing the mountain again. After seeing those herbs, my whole body seemed to gain strength all of a sudden. It was a strange thing. "
Li Baoping let out a wow and praised: "Uncle Master, you must have picked a basket full of herbs before going down the mountain to go home, right? ! "
When the little girl said this, her face was full of pride.
Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "No, it was not covered by the herbs until the sun was going down. At the bottom of the basket, we went down the mountain. Firstly, it’s not that easy to find medicinal herbs. It’s very difficult. I’m so small. Carrying a big basket on the mountain road is actually more difficult than collecting herbs. Secondly, I’m really tired. And then again, I don’t think about leaving until it gets dark. I would have to stay alone in the mountains in the end. Of course I was very scared at that time. It's just that what I'm most afraid of..."
Li Baoping waited for a long time, but did not wait for the next step. He asked curiously: "What is the junior uncle most afraid of? "
"Nothing. "
The straw-shoe boy shook his head and said softly: "I wasn't afraid anymore. "
The little girl was considerate and did not ask further.
Chen Pingan came back to his senses, turned to her and smiled: "I am not telling you this to tell you, little one. Uncle Master is so awesome. In fact, this is how all the poor kids in small towns came to be. It’s not unusual at all. I say this because I think the tips on martial arts practice you told me today are very good, just like the way my uncle sneaked to the school when he was a child and saw Mr. Qi teaching. Didn't you say that there are no female teachers or wives? I think that when you go to Cliff Academy in the future, after you read enough books, you might be able to become the first gentleman to teach in the academy. "
After hearing what her junior uncle said, the little girl in the red cotton jacket suddenly became full of high morale and raised her fists, "Li Baoping, you can do it! Definitely! ”
Chen Pingan watched silently and felt that if Mr. Qi was still alive, he would be very happy.
But the little girl said something that made the boy’s head big. Words, "Because Li Baoping has the most amazing little uncle in the world! ”
The young man had to pretend that he didn’t hear anything.
p>In the beautiful season when grass grows and orioles fly, a young man and a little girl sit side by side, each holding beautiful wishes.
————
In a hidden place on the other side of the stream, a man and a girl were sitting cross-legged, eating dry food.
The girl with sharp eyes said angrily: "Dad, how can the young lady follow such a naive and silly guy to our Dali border smoothly? I heard that there are frequent wars there. There are also many soldiers and bandits who have turned into bandits and are very uneasy."
The man joked: "Did you forget who taught you a lesson? You lost the first battle in your life after practicing martial arts. "It's so frustrating to lose."
The girl said angrily: "That's because you don't allow me to operate the Qi machine without permission, because you're afraid that I won't be able to withstand the pressure. Now I can do it with just one hand." You can defeat that guy in Mud Bottle Alley."
The man asked with a smile: "A master of the second level of martial arts, are you really sure?"
The girl reminded loudly: " Dad, he is the pinnacle of the second realm!"
The man took a sip from the water bottle and shook his head: "You can't beat him, unless you have a point-and-shoot martial arts competition, you have a chance of winning."
p>The girl obviously didn't believe it. The young man had just entered the gate of martial arts after holding himself to death. They had faced off on the roof of the Li family mansion before, and he only succeeded by luck because of the favorable location.
The man joked: "You are a heartless person. When someone confronted you in the house and beat you until you fell to the ground, he didn't forget to give you a hand. He had to change into something." Dad, if you fight against someone, it would be considered very kind if you don't put a tile on your head."
"So he is stupid."
The girl sneered: " “A man who practices martial arts and is kind to women, such a person will not live long!
The man looked surprised and said: "You are just a girl. You are not good at martial arts, and your martial arts is not high. You have a set of principles. Who taught you?" Anyway, I never told you these words. "
The girl raised her chin, "Our second young master said it! Although the second young master is a scholar full of strategies, he never talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality. He only talks about kindness but does not control the army. He must kill decisively. "
The man frowned and was about to talk some serious truth to this heartless girl when he suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Cross the river!
The girl stood up and said, "Dad, what's going on? Didn't you just follow the lady quietly?" "
The man's tone was not relaxed, "Someone is coming. Wait and be careful! "
The father and daughter crossed the river and flew away.
————
Chen Pingan and Li Baoping had just left their hometown. Willow set off on his way again and found a person appearing at the end of his field of vision.
Chen Pingan first put down his backpack, and then asked Li Baoping to stand behind him.
Ruo Shuo was there. On the east side of the town, Chen Ping'an wouldn't be surprised to encounter anyone, even if they were gods, demons, and monsters.
But on this southbound route, even the road will soon disappear., no matter who he meets, Chen Pingan does not dare to take it lightly.
Far away.
A man who was neither tall nor strong came towards Chen Pingan and Li Baoping. He was leading a white donkey, wearing a bamboo hat on his head and a cloth bag slung across his body. His legs were wrapped in a turban, he was holding a bamboo staff, and hanging on his waist was a green... long sword with a bamboo sheath?
The man stopped five or six steps away and did not continue to approach. He took off his bamboo hat, revealed an ordinary face, and said with a smile: "Are you Chen Pingan? Hello, I My name is A Liang, kind Liang.”
Finally, the man added, “I am a swordsman.”
