Chapter 7 Berserker's Dilemma
Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/
"If a swordsman's attack is effective, it mainly depends on two aspects. First, it is the swordsman himself, which can be attributed to internal factors; secondly, it depends on what the target of the attack is, and the way of connecting the two is the swordsman's movement, which is the so-called move."
What Longma said seemed a bit like nonsense. In fact, this is nonsense for ordinary swordsmen, but since he told Qiu Bai again, it means it is really not nonsense.
"Qiubai, for you, it seems a bit biased to focus on the inside and ignore the outside in terms of overall consciousness."
Compared with Professor Qiu Bai's moves and how to do it, Longma explains that it is something more essential... Just turning the other person into his own copy from the perspective of "shape", only the most clumsy teaching master will do it.
However, Qiu Bai didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words for a while.
This has nothing to do with whether there are defects in his intelligence level and understanding. He just didn't react to what aspect of Longma mentioned.
At this time, the two were standing indoors, while Ain knelt down a little far behind Qiu Bai... Longma's house had been transformed into a very simple swordsman.
Seeing that Qiubai was a little confused, Longma decided to do it in practice and explained it. He swept a roll of grass used to practice swords on the ground, and then stretched out his hand towards Qiubai.
Qiu Bai naturally understood, and his slender blade appeared in his hand. Then he used a single sword and simply cut the straw mat into two pieces.
Longma glanced at him and said nothing, but then swept the grass into a hardwood stake that was as thick as it was.
But this did not have any obstacles to Qiubai. The lower half of the wooden stake was still motionless, while the upper half fell to the ground after Qiubai's knife was slashed. He seemed to have no problem except a little...
"The power of your sword swing has increased." Longma said.
"right."
"Why?"
“…”
Qiubai blinked, do you still need to ask why?
"Because the cuts are different, the wooden stakes need to be much harder."
"So, why do you have to use stronger power to cut hard things?"
"..." This, huh, isn't that the case? Is there any deviation in Qiubai's common sense?
"This is your characteristic, and it can also be said that your basic way of thinking as a swordsman... relies too much on your wrist strength. If used properly, the same force can be used to cut wood, or to split stones and divide gold."
While talking, Longma pulled out Qiushui and gently stroked it, then divided the straw mat into two, and then he cut the wooden stake in the same way. Compared with the two, he did not increase the force.
Now Qiu Bai finally understood what Longma was saying.
Whether it is a habit or a blind spot in his personal thinking, he had never thought that he could operate like this before.
And for Qiubai, although he was not conscious, it was a fact that he was too dependent on his wrist strength. No matter what he wanted to cut, he always had the most priority.
He could even do something like "cutting iron", but he would definitely cut wildly without the pleasure of cutting one and two pieces of cuts quickly - fundamentally speaking, although he did not show any of his body at all, he actually followed the path of a "crazy swordsman".
That is, compared with finding the opponent's weakness, Qiu Bai is more accustomed to strengthening himself and then facing the strongest part of his opponent. This is his habit of doing things, and it also deeply reflects some personal personality problems. It is okay to barely say that the sword is as good as his heart.
If you explain it in a simpler, non-hydrated, popular and scientific, scientific and logical language, that is... Qiubai likes to argue hard.
If something is cut with one ton of strength, he will habitually increase the strength to two tons, rather than seeking to use one ton of strength to solve the problem more exquisitely.
This is Qiubai, a high mountain flower blooming on Qiongya... It is also a strange thing in the academic sense.
He didn't deliberately ignore the other party's weaknesses, but he was just used to staring at the other party's strongest place. If he faced an enemy and one aspect of the other party was very strong, Qiubai would habitually think of "If he is strong, he is strong, I have to be stronger than him."
This is not a problem with swordsmanship, but a more basic and deeper combat thinking problem other than swordsmanship. If you keep fighting in this way of thinking, two situations are likely to occur... either you can directly fuck the enemy, or you can be knocked down by the opponent neatly.
When you fight head-on and face front, you will always encounter hard rocks.
Of course, this may be related to Qiu Bai's lack of practical experience. Even without Longma's teachings, he will begin to realize this problem after a long time and after more experience.
However, this is the meaning of the existence of the instructor. Perhaps students may be able to discover, analyze and grow themselves well, but Longma obviously does not have that much time.
After these words, Qiubai suddenly felt that the toilet was open... He was still a little ashamed to be seen through, but he could tell the difference clearly, so he quickly directed the girl who was watching from one side:
"Ain, hurry up and take notes."
Ain glanced at Qiubai. Although this was just a separate guidance for him, she directly sorted out the notes as required... She had a premonition that even if Qiubai was taken down, she would never read it again. There was always a sense that the notes would become wet in the near future.
Longma ignored Qiu Bai's words to Ain, and he continued, "Sensing weaknesses and finding weaknesses is one of the foundations of swordsmanship and a basic requirement for swordsman. The rumored swordsman who can reach the highest point can be 'listened to everything', but unfortunately I have never reached that situation..."
"But there is no problem in making this kind of spiritual, qi, and spiritual practice that emphasizes swordsman's essence, energy, and spirit "listen to all things."
This statement made Qiu Bai stunned at first, and then he reacted, so he continued to say, "Is it... the domineering spirit of seeing and hearing?"
“…”
"Do you know 'dominating'?"
Well, Qiubai was a little anxious. He was still too far away from that level.
Does Qiu Bai know domineering? In fact, it should be considered as unaware. "I only know that everyone contains unique powers called "domineering", but I don't know the others."
This should be a fact. If he had known domineeringly, he would have started practicing long ago.
"Let's talk about the domineering things later. Let's talk about the problem in front of you first..." Longma pondered for a moment, and then changed his statement, "But since you mentioned this, let's explain it in a more way."
"For the time being, the technique of finding weakness is called 'listening to all things'. Its focus is on the word 'feeling' itself, which is simply 'listening'. As for what you say 'seeing and hearing domineering aura', it is to feel and then react, that is, instantaneous 'feedback' is particularly important, so the two are not things on the same level."
It has nothing to domineering, and what Longma said is very different from the rumored "listening to the voice of all things".
Qiu Bai is undoubtedly more interested in the magical power of domineeringness, but he still understands the principle that hasteness does not reach this point. First of all, it is the top priority to make up for his long-term shortcomings.
"So now your next lesson is... to break the stone with the power of breaking wood."
"Or might as well be more direct, cut off the stone with half of the strength you originally needed, and then repeat with a quarter of the strength after completing it. Only if you do it will you have the next step of practice." Longma said.
"Although I don't have much time, I can only teach one by one, so... whether I can learn what I want to learn depends on yourself." Although I don't know where Qiu Bai heard of the domineering spirit, and he is quite interested in that kind of power that is more advanced, Longma will not skip the middle teaching link.
That wouldn't be skipped either.
After hearing what the other party said, Qiu Bai's face was a little bitter. This requirement was really a bit high. In such a short time, it would be almost impossible for him to pass the level.
"Are there any tips for the current practice...?"
Qiubai said while rubbing his hands, and said somewhat flatteringly.
It must be none.
Longma didn't pay any attention to him at all, but started another student's specialized teaching... Although Ain seemed to be just an add-on, since he decided to teach, Longma had no bias.
