The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 6 Liu Wuji is busy practicing martial arts all day long ([-])
In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji got up early and began to practice hard martial arts again. Duan Wuji's small figure was jumping up and down in the small courtyard.

When the willow cauliflower was cooked for breakfast, Duan Wuji ran in sweating profusely.

"Oh, I'm so hungry today."

Duan Changsheng saw it and said with a smile, "Damn, sit by my side, we hit it off quite well."

Duan Wuji squinted at his elder brother and said, "I don't. If you sit next to you, you should say that I am a hungry wolf going down the mountain. I'd better sit next to your mother. Mother won't talk about me."

As he said, Duan Wuji sat beside his mother, stretched out his hand to grab the bun and opened his mouth to bite.

Duan Changsheng sneered and said, "Wouldn't everyone be able to see you sitting next to your mother? You're a snack."

The smart monk said to Duan Wuji while eating: "Wuji, today I will teach you how to use the weapon. Hey, Wuji. Among the eighteen weapons, what weapon do you like the most?"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Master Zhizhi, among these weapons, my favorite is the sword. How about you teach me a set of sword skills?"

The wise monk listened to Gao and sent the Buddha's name. "Amitabha, little benefactor, this request of yours has stumped the poor monk, isn't this sword technique my Buddhist weapon, the sword technique is the most unusable of my Buddhist weapons.

That swordsmanship is the longest-used weapon of Taoism, and Taoism is best at using swords. Swords are the foundation of Taoism, not my specialty in Buddhism.

My Buddhist specialty is the stick method, such as eighteen arhat sticks, eyebrow-level short sticks, everything is complete.

This sword technique is not so complete.

Forget it, I learned a set of swordsmanship from a priest in the capital a while back. This set of swordsmanship is called the 36 moves of chasing souls.Also called Soul Chasing Sword Art.

The poor monk felt that it was not my Buddhist martial arts, so he didn't practice it seriously. I will pass it on to you today.

Hey, Master Duan, since Wuji wants to learn swordsmanship, where is his sword? "

Duan Yanqing smiled wryly after hearing this and said: "Master Zhizhi, you also know that my family has just passed food and clothing, so I don't have money to buy a sword. I don't want to practice this sword. What do you think?"

Liu Caihua shook her head and said, "I said you are in charge, so you won't think of a way?

Isn't there half a piece of peach wood at the bottom of the south wall of our house?You asked me to cook it the other day, and I haven't burned it yet.Just use a kitchen knife to make a sword for Wuji.That didn't take much effort. "

Duan Yanqing laughed out loud.

"After a long time of trouble, you mother said to make him a wooden sword! This is easy to handle, okay! After dinner, I will use a kitchen knife to sharpen him! By the way, I will also make him a big stick Right! This is quite easy.

Isn't there a half-broken water-carrying stick at the bottom of the wall in our house? I chopped off his head with a kitchen knife, and made him a short stick with eyebrows.

Damn it, you can really do it! "

The wise monk listened to the Buddha's name. "Amitabha, there are many ways for a female benefactor.

Think about it, is it appropriate for a nine-year-old child to let him hold real iron?It is best to use this wooden weapon.

That is, it can't hurt anyone, and it's light to hold.Several people laughed when they heard this.

Duan Wuji muttered softly after hearing this. "What are you laughing at? What's so funny. Isn't it just a wooden sword? What's so funny?"

After breakfast, Duan Yanqing took the kitchen knife from the cutting board, went to the south wall, and soon made a mahogany sword and an eyebrow-level short stick.

Duan Yanqing said with a smile: "Wuji, these two weapons are yours now, take them and play in the yard! Don't touch them, they will hurt you."

Duan Wuji was very happy to receive the two weapons, he held them in his hand and looked at them for a long time, Duan Wuji said to Duan Yanqing: "Thank you daddy, these weapons are very comfortable to hold, but they are somewhat light."

Duan Yanqing said with a smile: "What are you afraid of if you take it easy? It's easy to practice like this, don't you think? When you grow up and earn money, we can buy it again, can't you?"

Duan Wuji listened and nodded. "Okay, okay, Daddy, I'll just listen to you.

Smart master, can you teach me swordsmanship now?You see, I have both my sword and my stick. "

The intelligent monk listened and nodded. "Okay, okay, okay, I will teach you this sword technique now. You can watch it, kid."

Speaking of which, the intelligent monk took over the peach wood sword, and then seriously practiced each move one by one, explaining while practicing. After the first practice, the monk Shang Neng began to practice the second time, still explaining while practicing.

The smart monk repeated the explanation five times in a row, and then taught Duan Wuji the mahogany sword.

Then, Zhizhi monk began to guide him one by one, until noon, Liu Caihua shouted loudly: "The rice is cooked, the head of the house, Changsheng, hurry up and eat."

Liucaihua ran to the yard again, watched for a while Master Zhizhi taught Duan Wuji how to practice swords, and then said to the monk Zhizhi: "Master Zhizhi, don't teach him now. The food is cooked, go eat first. Don't worry about it. Practice, let's practice after eating."

Zhizhi monk and Duan Wuji immediately walked towards the dining table, and when they came to the dining table, Duan Yanqing asked Duan Wuji, "Wuji, have you met today's sword practice?"

Duan Wuji nodded and shook his head after hearing this, "Well, some have learned it, and some haven't learned it yet."

Duan Changsheng laughed and said: "Father, why do you ask him that? He is a born idiot. Apart from eating, no one can do anything. What else do you think he can do?"

Duan Wuji lowered his head when he heard this, and murmured softly: "Anyway, I tried my best, what can I do if I can't learn it?"

After hearing this, Liu Caihua said to Duan Yanqing: "The head of the family, the child is still young, how can he learn how to make a sword for half a day with a nine-year-old child? Don't ask him, won't he learn it in three or five days? Two Egg, sit down and eat quickly."

As she spoke, Liu Caihua took a piece of steamed bun and handed it to him. "Damn, take it and eat, mother believes that you are the best. Eat, don't be hungry."

Wuji was really hungry during this period, so he took the bun and ate it quickly.

Duan Changsheng smiled and said: "Father, look, the hungry wolf has gone down the mountain again."

Duan Yanqing glared at his eldest son. "Changsheng, don't talk about my brother like that. You should look like a brother. Did you hear that?"

Duan Changsheng laughed when he heard this: "Father, I'm not joking with him. Erdan, eat, eat enough. If anyone bullies brother in the future, you will beat him up."

"Well, brother, don't worry, that is necessary."

After lunch, Duan Wuji still learned how to practice swords with the smart monk, until the sun was westward, and when the sun was about to set, Duan Wuji still followed the smart monk to learn the new method of inner strength.

It wasn't until Liu Caihua ran over and called them to eat that the two of them followed Liu Caihua to the dining table.

After dinner, Duan Wuji immediately sat cross-legged on the kang and went to meditate.The family has long been used to it, and they never called him when they went to sleep, so they turned off the lights and went to sleep.

The next morning, the family got up and saw Duan Wuji practicing sword in the yard.

Duan Wuji's martial arts practice has formed a regular pattern. Every morning, he will practice boxing and kicking for a while, and then he will start to practice swords. When the sun is westward, he will practice new methods of internal strength with the intelligent monk, and he will start to meditate after dinner.

On the morning of the ninth day, Duan Wuji walked up to Duan Yanqing and Zhizhi monk and said, "After these few days of sword practice, I feel that I have mastered my swordsmanship. How about I show it to you now?"

Duan Yanqing laughed out loud. "Wuji, dad has been looking forward to this day for a long time, well, now you can show us a show."

I saw Duan Wuji holding the mahogany sword first to stand still, and then raised his hand suddenly, an immortal showed the way to let the air stand, and then the sword practiced as he walked.I saw him walking as fast as a civet cat treading the snow, calm and leisurely like a jade girl, his sword shadow swaying fiercely, and his sword punching style leisurely, everyone was dazzled for a while.

In the end, Duan Wuji suddenly retreated and stood in front of Duan Yanqing and Smart Monk.

"Master, see if I can practice well."

"Well, good, Wuji, you practice well, I think you have surpassed me as a teacher, you are really a good young man!"

Duan Wuji said with a smile after hearing this: "Master Zhizhi, should you teach me the stick technique today?"

The wise monk listened and smiled. "Okay, okay, okay, after breakfast today, I will teach you and my Buddhist secret, the eighteen arhat stick techniques."
