Chapter 102 Learning is worse than doing

Early the next morning, Hua Lanting came to Yufangzhai, where Tianji Peak held a brief and solemn apprenticeship ceremony for him.

Since then, he has a formal Taoist master, Yun Yiqi, the master of Tianji Peak of Zizai Wanxiangmen.

After the apprenticeship, only Yun Yiqi, Hua Lanting and another disciple were left in the room.

Yun Yiqi said, "Lanting, let me introduce you to you. I have accepted five disciples so far. Your senior brother is in seclusion, the second senior brother is carrying out a mission, and the third senior brother is going out to practice. This is the fourth senior brother Shuluntai."

Hua Lanting bowed. The fourth senior brother was dressed in white, had a jade-like face, a gentle expression, and a unique temperament, which easily made people feel good.

Yun Yiqi continued: "There are all apprenticeships for this sect, which are mostly attacking or defensive magic weapons. For the master, he values ​​personal cultivation and does not want you to rely too much on spiritual weapons and magic weapons made by outsiders. I heard that if you choose Dongming Peak for minors, you will give you a strange stone as a gift for your meeting."

"This stone is called "Duanli" and has excellent flexibility and ductility, and is not without rigidity. It is suitable for creating defensive magic weapons. You can deal with it at your discretion in the future."

Hua Lanting thanked and took it over and put it away. Looking at Yun Yiqi's cold face, he thought to himself that the serious master gave birth to a daughter like Yun Xiuchun?

He was still feeling sorry for the thousand spirit stones and was secretly whispering to himself. Yun Yiqi saw that he was distracted and asked, "What are you thinking? Not satisfied?"

Hua Lanting hurriedly said, "Disciple, I dare not. The disciple is thinking that Senior Sister Yun and Master have little similar personalities."

Yun Yiqi's cold and hard face twitched a few times, and she smiled a little, and said, "It seems that you were blackmailed by that girl? You just came but you didn't know. There is a saying in the peak, "Cherish the wallet and stay away from Xiuchun. I can't do anything about her, just stay away from her in the future. What's she saying about it?"

Shuluntai next to him said, "The junior sister often says that the face is something outside the body, you can take it or not; money is something that is necessary, you can't help but want it."

Yun Yiqi covered her face with her hands: "Yes, I'm just spoiled by this sentence, but I really don't follow me, I just follow her mother."

Hua Lanting felt that the new master was actually just cold-faced and was quite easy-going.

"Since I've said this, Master will first extend it. I will teach you the first teaching you have when you come into our school. Remember to deal with blackmail, the best way is to fight back resolutely; to deal with merchants, the best negotiation is not to give in to profits, but to cancel the transaction. Do you understand?"

Hua Lanting bowed: "Disciple, remember."

Yun Yiqi nodded: "I know your cultivation level, but I don't know much about your martial arts and techniques. Today, the first lesson is to let Luntai measure you. I want to teach you according to my aptitude. You can show your knowledge and let go." After that, he brought the two of them to the empty field outside.

Yun Yiqi said to Shu Luntai: "Lanting Kung Fu is good, you can't be careless, let's start."

Hua Lanting took out the dragon head rope and knew that Shu Luntai would not take action first. He said that Senior Brother Sheng was offended, so he took the lead in attacking.

He knew that Yun Yiqi had to look at his kung fu, so he did not hide his own strength, but instead took full advantage of his efforts.

Hua Lanting did his best, and Shu Luntai attacked punctually. The two first fought with long-range magic, and then turned to martial arts close-up fighting. Hua Lanting used all the footwork, body techniques, sword techniques, boxing techniques, leg techniques, and thunder techniques, as well as various hidden weapons and magic weapons in turn. Finally, even the scorpion tail needle in the dragon head Soli was used, but he couldn't do anything to Shu Luntai.

Shuluntai is not very fast and not very strong, but it seems to be able to see the initiative and is extremely flexible. He often makes various incredible postures of Hualanting. He can always block and change with a small amplitude but quickly and timely block and change. When encountering a killer move, he can also avoid it blindly when it is ineffective, giving Hualanting a powerful and unsatisfactory feeling.

In the end, Hualanting stopped using all his tricks.

Yun Yiqi asked Shu Luntai with a blank expression: "How is it, what do you think of Lanting's kung fu?"

Shu Luntai replied: "My junior brother has a solid foundation, good skills, and diverse martial arts. He is much better than when I was in the beginning. If Master hadn't reminded me not to be careless, I would have been hard to resist with a few moves. Congratulations to Master for receiving the good disciple again."

Yun Yiqi pondered for a moment and said to Hua Lanting: "Your senior brother has said all the praises, let me talk about your shortcomings."

“The biggest shortcoming is change.”

"It can be seen that you should have studied Elder Zhou's four-character offense and defense techniques. When you make moves, you strive to change the rhythm and direction, but you still become stiff between the changes in the moves. You are forcing changes for the sake of change."

"Luntai is not familiar with all your moves, but the moment of delay caused by this bluntness gives him time to react."

"You already know that weapons and magic are extensions of the body and make good use of this, but you don't understand the fulcrum and skills of exerting force. It is just a routine practice to exert force with both legs and attack with both arms and hands and weapon magic, which limits your changes."

"Looking at the wheel, you can focus everywhere on the whole body, so that you can make various parry and avoid movements, and the transformation can be natural without unnecessary adjustments."

"Mu Xiao lays your foundation very solid, but it is not solid enough. You have many martial arts and familiar routines, and have begun to pursue the connection between the moves in each routine, but this is a bit too early and anxious."

"I originally wanted to pass on your Nine-Turn Great Pill Renewal Pills to start practicing the thunder attribute inner alchemy. Now it seems that you still need to reconstruct the foundation first."

"Let's do this, for the next period of time, you will first work on routine."

Hua Lanting asked, "Am I too tricky? I'm too obsessed with moves?"

Yun Yiqi said: "Wrong! It's not that it's too routine, but that it's not enough."

Seeing that Hua Lanting didn't understand, Yun Yiqi explained:

"Cultivation is staged. You have learned a lot of knowledge points, but at this stage, you have reversed the order of learning and doing."

"Often the way people learn and practice is to learn first and then practice, but now you should practice first and then learn, and understand the essence of knowledge points in the process of practice and practice."

“Only when you focus on doing it, you can set yourself somewhere, let go of others, and gain stability and strength.”

"So what you need to do next is not to think, but practice. Practice all the routines you know thousands of times, and don't think about why. Practice makes perfect, and skill makes essence. You first practice the routine to the extreme of proficiency and turn it into an instinctive reaction, and become a random application based on the situation without using your brain."

"This is a decomposition action, like a classmate. After knowing the rules and methods, you must first practice killing one step and two steps, and don't think about how it evolved into a killable situation."

"When this step is completed, I will teach you the transition between the mixed moves and the connection between them. The requirement at that time will be to try to forget the specific moves and moves."

"For example, there may be dozens of stabbing moves in the martial arts you know. When you imprint these deeply in your mind, if you understand the way to change the force, you can naturally use the most appropriate moves when you need to continuously stabbing, instead of waiting for the previous attack to always think about how to turn into the next move to launch a new attack."

"After you enter Dongming Peak, you will practice in the first twenty days of each month, practice martial arts during the day, practice martial arts at night, and go to Dongming Peak to learn weapon refining ten days later."

"You practice it yourself during this period. Usually I ask Luntai to guide you. I will check the progress once a month before deciding on the next step."

"Remember, don't rush it because it's boring and tasteless. Only by accumulating a lot can it become thin. The thinness here is not about less or weak, but about rapid and rapid swelling."

"Cultivation is like reading, focusing on stage and gradual progress. Even Confucius, a great scholar, did not advocate reading a lot of books when he achieved the following points."

"He said that when a disciple enters, he will be filial, when he leaves, he will be ungrateful, be cautious and trustworthy, love the masses, and be kind to the benevolent. If he has the extra effort, he will learn literature."

"It means that when you are at home, you should first learn with your parents and relatives as role models, and learn from your good brother friends when you go out. Do things steadily and do things without any chaotic things, and you will have a wide range of people, especially those with virtue. If you do all these well and have some skills, you can learn classics and knowledge."

"There is a lot of knowledge, just like Tianji Peak. The Tianquan Peak's martial arts are recorded in hundreds of thousands of times, but the original intention in the sect was to serve to improve and improve the core exercises of Taoist sect. All accumulation is to make slight improvements to the Freedom Wuji Kung Fu, the Little Little Little Little Sword, etc. that have been tempered for thousands of times, in order to make slight improvements to the Great Dao."

"To put it more, each master has different methods to take an apprentice. In the eyes of a teacher, teaching people is what they learn, but this is not the most important thing. What is important is to let the apprentice have and discover what they want and don’t want, as well as to learn lifelong learning."

"There is too much knowledge, and the speed of knowledge update and iteration will only get faster and faster in the future. What you need to learn is not only methods, but first of all, values, be responsible for yourself, make your own choices, make your own decisions, and be responsible for your own choices and decisions."

"The focus of the beginning is not what you learned or whether you learned well, but how to view learning, how to learn, and why."

"You must learn to face your own wishes, interests and uniqueness, rather than lose in comparison and assimilation with others, so that you can master the ability to learn for lifelong self-study."

Hua Lanting asked: "What do you mean to be responsible for yourself?"

Yun Yiqi sighed: "While I made such a decision to teach my disciples, I also realized that I might be making mistakes, and I have to bear risks, accusations and consequences. But as far as my current perception is concerned, I am unwilling to choose other mainstream indoctrination methods to avoid being criticized."

"Compared with excellent knowledge mastery, I hope you will be generous and dare to express yourself and strive for it, and be willing to accept challenges and bear consequences for this. This has nothing to do with the amount of knowledge and skills, but a kind of courage and courage. This is the most vital and tension in your personality."

"Master leads you to the door, and practice depends on your own. I hope that when you realize this, the first person responsible will become you and you will choose what you want."

"Of course, before that, as a new outer disciple, you must listen to me and execute it without any discount."

In the following months, Hua Lanting not only did not give up, but instead increased his efforts in practicing martial arts and techniques. At night and at night, he relied on the magical practice of the Dragon Sleeping Pill and the Ziweixing Fighting Heavenly Technique.

With the advantage of practicing in his sleep that was more than others, his cultivation was slowly but firmly improving, the color of his inner alchemy was constantly deepening, and his various moves became more and more proficient.
