Life in the world of film and television

The next morning, Li Mu rushed to the back mountain. Yue Buqun had already arrived and was practicing a set of sword skills.

This sword technique is quite unique. Different from other sword techniques, the sword is drawn like an arc. Li Mu instantly recognized that this was the Iron Wire Sword Style, the sword was like an iron wire.

Despite its ordinary name, this set of swordsmanship ranks among the Five Swords of Huashan. It also has a great reputation in the world and is truly a superior swordsmanship.

It seems that Yue Buqun plans to teach him this swordsmanship today.

After Yue Buqun finished performing a set of sword skills, he nodded and said, "Here we come!"

"You have already gained a foundation in basic swordsmanship, and your internal strength has also improved. Today I will officially teach you one of the superior swordsmanship of our Huashan Sect, the Iron Wire Sword Style."

After speaking, Li Mu was asked to pick up the pine sword and officially start teaching.

Time flies like water, the end of the year is here in a blink of an eye, and the New Year is approaching. With the help of study cards, the Iron Wire Sword Style has been learned and has gained some momentum.

That morning, just after Li Mu had finished breakfast, Bai Er came rushing over.

"Young escort, the new year's goods prepared by the chief escort have been delivered to you. There are also some for Mr. Yue and his wife and all your senior brothers. They are down the mountain now. You can see when the time is right to deliver them."

Li Mu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the Chinese New Year would be coming so soon. Lin Zhennan had also prepared new year's goods. The journey from Fujian to Huashan started about two months ago.

Think about the time I spent in Huashan Mountain for more than half a year. I practiced hard all day long and never even descended the mountain once.

"No rush, let's go down the mountain and have a look. Has the escort agency's branch at the foot of Huashan Mountain been built?"

Bai Er bowed and replied: "It's built. It was just built last month. The chief escort sent Chief Shi and Chief Zheng to deliver New Year's goods this time. The two chiefs will not leave from now on. They will stay here exclusively in Huashan." Besides taking care of the escort agency’s business here, I also run errands for the young escort chief.”

Li Mu nodded and said, "I haven't seen Mr. Shi and Mr. Zheng for a long time. I just happened to meet them and recognize our branch at the foot of Huashan Mountain."

With that said, the two of them went all the way down Huashan.

The escort agency was located in a nearby town. Bai Er led the way and soon arrived in front of the escort agency.

However, there was a crowd of people gathered here at this time, and they didn’t know what was going on.

Li Mu was not yet thirteen years old. He was not tall and could not see what was going on inside. He said to Bai Er, "Go over and ask what happened."

Hearing this, Bai Er hurriedly got into the crowd, and came out again after a while, with a flushed face and said: "The young escort chief is a local escort agency in Huayin County. Seeing that we are from out of town, he invited experts from the Iron Sword Sect. Come here to pick a fight, Captain Shi and Captain Zheng are no match for each other."

"Young escort chief, why don't we go back to Huashan?"

Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, take me in and take a look."

Bai Er struggled for a moment before opening a path in front, and Li Mu finally squeezed in.

The first thing that caught his eye was a young man in his twenties, carrying a sword and standing there with his head held high, looking lonely as a master. This was probably the so-called master of the Iron Sword Sect.

On the other side, Captains Zheng and Shi were half-lying on the ground, with several soldiers bravely guarding them in front.

Seeing Bai Er and Li Mu walking in, Dart Shi and Dart Zheng covered their chests and slowly got up: "Young Dart."

"Hello, young escort!"

"Young escort chief, you are here."

"Young escort, please go back to Huashan first. We will handle the matters here."

……

Li Mu nodded to them, said nothing, and turned to look at the master of the Iron Sword Sect. The masters of the Iron Swords happened to look over at this time and said with a mocking look on their faces: "Are you their young escort?"

Li Mu didn't answer. He slowly drew out his sword and asked, "You were the one who hit me."

When the master of the Iron Sword Sect saw Li Mu draw out his long sword, he laughed so hard: "How old are you, a little brat? Do you want to fight me? Have you weaned yourself?"

Li Mu gradually got better at practicing the Iron Wire Sword Style, and his hands were a little itchy. He was looking for someone to try the sword, when he heard this and his sword trembled.

"Stop talking nonsense, don't you dare?"

The Iron Sword Sect master felt that he had been underestimated by a child, as if he had been insulted, and with anger on his face, he drew his long sword and said, "I will be afraid of you."

Li Mu sneered: "That's good."

After speaking, I took a deep breath, repeated my thoughts calmly, and calmed my mind. Gradually, the spiritual platform became clear and clear. I was neither sad nor happy. The "Iron Wire Sword Style" flowed through my heart one by one.

His wrist shook, and he stabbed out with a sword. The long sword made a clear buzzing sound.

The master of the Iron Sword Sect was startled and hurriedly waved his sword to resist. Li Mu's purpose was to test the sword and test the actual combat effect of the Iron Sword Style. He did not intend to resolve the battle with one or two swords.

When the sword was used, he didn't force himself to hurt the enemy. With a drag of his wrist, the sword spun back along a half-arc.

Next, there was still a straight thrust, and the Iron Sword Sect master blocked it awkwardly again. The long sword in Li Mu's hand drew a long arc in the air, and then spun back.

Next, Li Mu struck out with one sword after another, moving faster and faster. Suddenly, there was a constant buzzing sound in the air, and the long sword left arc-shaped traces in the air.

The master of the Iron Sword Sect thrust his arms left and right, and suddenly felt a chill on his body. At this time, Li Mu also put away his sword and stood there.

Just as the master of Iron Sword Sect was about to say something to support the scene, a breeze blew by, and his clothes suddenly turned into strands of cloth and fell down with the wind.

Only then did he realize that his body was covered with arc-shaped blood lines at some point. Although the wounds were not deep, they were just superficial injuries, which was terrifying enough.

With so many blood lines on his body, it is not difficult to wipe his neck.

Thinking of this, I feel lucky, but I don't care about my face, let alone say harsh words. He didn't even want the sword, he held his head, rushed out of the crowd, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The people around were shocked. They didn't expect that such a powerful person just now would be defeated by a young man.

Officer Shi, Officer Zheng, Bai Er and all the gangsters all looked at Li Mu with shock and surprise.

In the past, they didn't quite understand that it was inappropriate for a good young master to enjoy fine clothes and food, so he had to go to Mount Huashan to learn martial arts and endure hardships, but now they understand.

I was even more excited. With the young escort's martial arts being so good, not only would the Fuwei Escort Agency have a successor, but also the young escort chief would be in charge. The Fuwei Escort Agency's reputation in the world would also rise, and they would be proud of it.

After seeing the gift, surrounded by everyone, Li Mu walked into the Escort Bureau. He saw the New Year's goods sent by Lin Zhennan thousands of miles away. First of all, there were two boxes of new clothes, including brocade robes and practice clothes... all year round. Arrangements have been made.

Then there are various specialties from Fujian, some novel gadgets from overseas, and a snow-white pony, which is said to be a pure Dawan horse. There were also two Qingfeng swords made by skilled craftsmen. Li Mu took out one and made a clanging sound, with a cold light. It was much better than the standard long sword used by Huashan disciples.

Moreover, because he is still underage and his hand shape is different from that of adults, the hilt of the sword is specially made, which is suitable for him now. There are also five ginsengs that are hundreds of years old and a box of precious medicinal materials.

In addition to these miscellaneous things, several thousand taels of silver were reserved in the account of this escort agency for him to spend. If there is insufficient, he can replenish it at any time.

He also took a look at the annual gift that Lin Zhennan gave to Yue Buqun and his wife and all the senior brothers. It was prepared with great care and was considered a big gift.

Li Mu also prepared a return gift for Lin Zhennan and his wife. It was nothing more than a letter, advising them to have another child while they were young and keep it by their side as a filial piety.

Lin Zhennan is thirty-five years old this year, and Mrs. Lin is thirty-two years old this year. They are in their prime, and it is appropriate to have another child.

I don’t know how the two of them will react when they see this letter, but Li Mu really hopes that they will have another child. Perform filial piety on behalf of Lin Pingzhi.

After staying at the foot of the mountain for two days, Li Mu walked around Huayin County and stopped by the escort agency that was causing trouble. This time the other party was very polite and gave in as soon as they met. Not only because of his martial arts, but also because of his status as a disciple of Huashan.

According to Lin Zhennan's development principle of Fuwei Escort Agency, if you can make friends, don't make enemies. Li Mu didn't bother to pursue it, and just let Escort Officers Shi and Escort Zheng take care of it.

However, after this incident, Li Mu became quite famous in the neighborhood, and everyone knew that besides Linghu Chong, there was another young disciple with superb swordsmanship among the Huashan disciples.

Many people in the nearby arena lamented that it was indeed Huashan, which once directly pursued Shaolin and Wudang. It had a profound foundation, and it only took a short time for it to decline before a new generation of disciples rose up.

In the future, the world of Shaanxi will still be dominated by Huashan.

Returning to Huashan again, this time he was not alone, but a group of people, followed by two carriages.

By the time escort chief Zheng, on behalf of Lin Zhennan, handed out the New Year gifts one by one, Huashan Mountain was already a festive and lively scene.

In particular, some of the disciples came from poor backgrounds and had never received such expensive gifts in their lives. All of them were beaming with joy.

Li Mu continued to practice hard, but this time he had another task, reading, especially some Taoist classics.

Huashan originally originated from the Taoist lineage. It is fine when the martial arts is simple. When the martial arts is advanced, it is necessary to dabble in some Taoist classics.

This time when he went down the mountain, he also bought a lot of related books in Huayin County, such as "The Sutra of the Outer Scenery of the Huangting", "The Sutra of the Inner Scenery of the Huangting", "The Sutra of the Yushu", "The Sutra of Inner Contemplation by Taishang Laojun", "Dongxuan Lingbaoding" "Guan Jing Sutra", "Tai Shang Inspiration Chapter", "Fifteen Treatises on Chongyang Establishment", "Tai Shang Laojun Speaks of Chang Qingjing Sutra", etc.!

However, the reading threshold for these books is a bit high, and he often reads them in a foggy manner and doesn't understand what they are saying.

Fortunately, there are also many books in Huashan Mountain, especially Taoist classics, many of which have handwritten annotations by Huashan seniors.

Li Mu planned to find some simple introductory books to start reading. Yue Buqun was also a well-educated person, so when he encountered something he didn't understand, there would be no one to ask for advice.

……

The year passed quickly, and Li Mu was one year older. Yue Buqun participated in a Five Mountains Conference. After coming back, he didn't smile for a few days, but he urged his disciples more strictly.

Especially the two most talented disciples, Li Mu and Linghu Chong.

Fortunately, Li Mu was very talented in both internal skills and swordsmanship. He had no shortcomings. He knew everything once he was taught it and understood it once he learned it.

Whether it is Bao Yuan Gong, Huashan Beginner Sword Technique, or Iron Wire Sword Style, they all come to the fore and progress quickly.

Even the Huashan Body Technique that was just taught recently, Li Mu learned extremely quickly.

Where is Linghu Chong? But he is a partial genius with excellent swordsmanship and can learn any swordsmanship in one go. In terms of internal strength, although his qualifications are not bad, they pale in comparison to his swordsmanship talent.

Only then did Li Mu realize that the internal skill Linghu Chong practiced was also Baoyuan Gong, and its level was at the third level. Three years ago, when Linghu Chong was just sixteen years old, he broke through to the third level of Baoyuan Gong. Now three years later, Linghu Chong was nineteen years old and still at the third level. There was no sign of a breakthrough, which made Yue Buqun greatly shocked. Firelight.

In fact, the third to fourth level is a big hurdle and cannot be achieved overnight. Just like Lin Zhennan, he has practiced Zhengyang Gong to the third level for seven or eight years, but he still has not broken through to the fourth level. This is actually normal.

But for Yue Buqun, Linghu Chong, as the great disciple of Huashan, represents the face of Huashan to a certain extent. The third level and the fourth level are also a dividing line of strength. Ordinary people in the world have basically reached the top by practicing at the third level.

Those who can practice their internal skills to the fourth level are basically direct disciples carefully cultivated by the great sect.

Although Huashan is very lonely now, it used to be one of the most powerful sects in the world. As the top disciple, Linghu Chong has not even reached the fourth level of internal skills, and is not even close to the ordinary people in the world. How can he make Yue Buqun feel better? Can be relaxed.

Even though, when Linghu Chong relied on his superb swordsmanship, those people in the martial arts world who had reached the fourth level of internal martial arts were no match for him, Yue Buqun was still very angry.

The Huashan School is based on Qi and emphasizes controlling the sword with Qi, with Qi coming first with the sword. When Linghu Chong was good, his sword skills were more powerful than his internal strength. To a certain extent, he, the great disciple who represented Huashan's appearance, had deviated from Huashan's purpose of putting Qi first.

As a result, Yue Buqun became more and more strict with Linghu Chong, urging him to practice his internal skills every day. After being caught secretly going down the mountain to buy wine two days ago, he was directly punished by going to the cliff for a month.

Seeing how strict Yue Buqun was, all the disciples in Huashan were nervous and started practicing more seriously.

As a result, Li Mu was the most relaxed person. Yue Buqun knew that he was very self-disciplined and he arranged his own practice time on weekdays.

After putting reading into his schedule, he would spend a lot of time reading Taoist classics every day after practicing martial arts, and he would often consult Yue Buqun.

Yue Buqun is also a person who loves reading. He has read basically all the books in Huashan, and he understands that in the deeper stages of martial arts training, Taoist classics have to be read.

He had urged Linghu Chong to study hard before, but unfortunately Linghu Chong was undecided. He was a man who could sit still. Yue Buqun had no choice but to force it in the end.

Li Mu had this idea, so he was naturally happy and personally recommended some introductory books on Taoism. If Li Mu didn't understand anything, he would go out of his way to explain it one by one.

In this way, Li Mu absorbed all kinds of knowledge like a sponge, without giving up his martial arts, and his internal sword skills improved rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, as autumn entered in the second half of the year, Yue Buqun suddenly asked him to read the Four Books and Five Classics, explain Confucian concepts to him, and especially asked him to read Mencius intensively.

In this way, two or three months later, Yue Buqun taught him a new sword technique "Yangwu Sword".

The idea of ​​"nurturing me" comes from "Mencius"!

"I am good at cultivating my awe-inspiring Qi, so that it is as big and strong as possible. If I cultivate it directly and do no harm, it will be blocked between heaven and earth!"

Meng Ke once said in his Zhengqi Song:

In the awe-inspiring righteousness and moral principles, the utmost uprightness and uprightness are cultivated;

There is nothing big outside the universe, and there is no small Tai Su Gong within it.

There are a total of thirty-six moves in the Yangwu Sword Technique. Li Mu learns one move every day, and he has learned it all in more than a month. This set of Yangwu Swords is like a humble gentleman. Its main purpose is not to fight. It is used to attack less and defend more. The moves focus on accumulating energy and gathering momentum. Use four points of energy to leave six points, and you can defend while attacking!

Therefore, the Yangwu Sword is also famous for its defense. It is said that with a three-foot green edge in the hand, water cannot be poured into it and needles cannot penetrate it. It is an extremely rare set of superior Confucian swordsmanship.

The Quanzhen Sect is known as the three religions in one. As the Huashan Sect, which inherited part of the Quanzhen Religious Tradition, it seems not surprising that there is Confucian swordsmanship.

This time, Li Mu learned a little slower. The key to improving my sword is not practice, but enlightenment.

If you don't understand this Confucian aura, no matter how precise your moves are, it's just a good set of swordsmanship. If you can't use this set of swordsmanship, the three-foot Qingfeng in your hand will be a forbidden area.

Simply, Li Mu is not as good as him, he will eventually master it.
