Jianming Chaos

"Zhiming, Zhiming." Master kept calling him.

Zhiming opened his eyes, saw Master's kind face, saw that he was still at home, and realized that it was just a dream, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Master reproachfully said, "I called you many times, but you just won't wake up. What's the matter, did you not sleep well?"

Zhiming patted his head and said, "No, it was just a strange dream. Fortunately, Master woke me up in time, otherwise... No, I still have migraines now."

"What strange dream? Can you tell me about it?"

"It's nothing, it's just a strange dream put together from scattered fragments." Zhiming didn't want to say.

"Breakfast is ready, let's get up and eat." Master walked out.

Zhiming put on his clothes and went outside.Alan greeted him with a smile.

Zhiming responded, and was about to sit down when the master suddenly said, "Wait a minute, let's go through a few tricks first."

Zhiming was taken aback.The master rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's been a long time since we practiced against each other. It's rare for you to come back. I want to see the results of your cultivation in the past six months."

Zhiming understood, it turned out that the master wanted to confirm whether his skills had really improved.In fact, the several battles he experienced before, including the martial arts contest with Zhao Yun, were all good training, and now he is no longer a fledgling.

Master put on a posture; Zhiming took a deep breath, and also put on a posture.

"Zhiming, after you left, I have been practicing. You have to be careful." The master pointed his fist and eyes at Zhiming's chest, and the three points formed a straight line.

"Master, I haven't let up on each other." Zhiming didn't intend to use his divine power.

Master pre-empted the attack and swept over with a punch.Zhiming lowered his head and easily flashed past.

The master swiped the mantis leg and called.Zhiming flipped over and easily dodged it.

"It's a lot quicker!" Master praised him and at the same time used chain palms.

Zhiming's skill has improved by leaps and bounds. He used to think that Master's moves were as fast as lightning, but now he feels that his master's moves are as normal as they are.He easily dodged and blocked, dissolving all the chain palms.

The master turned around and swept his legs, Zhiming lowered his head, but he didn't expect the master to kick the second leg immediately.Unprepared for a moment, he was hit in the chest and fell backwards.

The master used Wuyingquan, and Zhiming was hit frequently.He didn't expect that the tricks he had practiced would be so difficult to guard against when others used them against him in turn.

Suddenly, he remembered the scene when he was competing with Zhao Yun, and quickly swept away with his foot, tripping the master.

Master quickly got up, shouted loudly, and another "Shuanglong went to sea" hit.Zhiming blocked it with his arms crossed.As soon as Master exerted strength, he was knocked away several meters and fell to the ground.

"Are you okay?" Master thought that Zhiming was injured, but he immediately stood up again, patted the dust, and smirked nonchalantly.

The master is a face-saving person, he does not believe that the apprentice can easily withstand his heavy blow in just half a year.He continued to use the Shadowless Fist.

Zhiming dodged his front, and jumped behind his master with a flying technique.After all, the flying technique was taught by the master, of course the master knew its weakness, he took advantage of the moment Zhiming was about to hit the ground, and kicked Zhiming over.

Unfortunately, Zhiming has already overcome this weakness. He landed on one leg with his back to Master, while pressing down his entire upper body; when Master's flying leg just passed by the top of his head, he quickly kicked back with his untouched left leg , impartially, right on the master's chin, the whole movement is very coherent and neat.

Master sprayed foam at the mouth and fell on his back.Zhiming was afraid that his master would be injured, so he wanted to help him.

The master straightened himself up and said, "Don't come here, I'm fine!"

Zhiming knew that Master wanted to be strong, so he said, "Master is very powerful. I only realized this trick half a month ago. I didn't expect it to be ineffective against Master."

Master rubbed his injured chin, gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, just keep coming!"

"Then I won't be polite!" Zhiming was about to let go of the fight.

He punched Master with a straight punch, and Zhiming suddenly turned his straight punch into a horizontal punch and hit his head.

Regardless of the injury to his head, the master grabbed his fist and twisted it back hard. At the same time, his right forearm tightly clamped his neck, intending to subdue him with the throat-locking technique.

Zhiming had already understood it, and he bit his arm hard.Master let out a cry of pain, and let go of his hand immediately.Zhiming took the opportunity to put his back elbow on his heart, then turned around and swept Mantang's leg to trip him.

The master quickly got up, and said to himself, "It's been half a year since I saw you. Your kid's martial arts has improved so fast! You still bit me with your teeth. I haven't taught you this trick."

Zhiming said triumphantly, "I created this myself. It can't be considered a dirty trick. Teeth are also considered weapons!"

"You are very powerful!" The master admired his wit.

"There are even more powerful ones!" Zhiming attacked again.

Master quickly parried.Zhiming pretended to punch his fist, and when the master was about to resist, he suddenly pushed his hands to the ground, clamped his legs with a "scissors foot", and turned over one by one.Master was thrown to the ground.

Zhiming quickly grabbed his right foot, bent his ankle inward desperately, and then sat down on his back.

I thought Master had been subdued, but Master lifted his left heel up and kicked Zhiming away.

The master didn't care about the pain in his feet, and took advantage of the situation to rush over to carry Zhiming, then knelt down on one knee, and slammed his body hard on the knee.

Fortunately, Zhiming had been on guard for a long time. He blocked it with his palm on his back, slowing down the strength of Master's knee.Of course, based on the principle of exchanging ideas, everyone will not try their best.

Zhiming hit his chin with a punch, and Master fell backwards.Zhiming quickly stretched out his left hand, grabbed Master's right hand, and prevented him from falling down; then, with a "little hand falling back", he turned his body 180 degrees and fell to the ground.

Zhiming rushed forward, and was about to have a "mountain crushing", but the master avoided it with lightning speed, and at the same time swept across with an iron fan leg.

Zhiming dodged a backflip.Seeing that his master was full of fighting spirit, he was afraid that if he continued to fight, he would be forced to use his divine power, so he signaled to stop.

The master also learned how powerful his apprentice was, and he was afraid that he would lose if he continued to fight, so he happened to have a chance to step him down, so he said, "Since you don't want to fight anymore, forget it."

Zhiming smiled, and asked: "Master, the 'knee top kill' just now is very powerful! How many people have you defeated with this move back then?"

The master shook his head and said, "A good man doesn't mention being brave. In fact, many of my moves were not taught by my master, but learned by myself in actual combat. They have not been recognized by authentic martial arts, because if I am not careful, I will make them. Human life does not conform to the principle of 'wushu supremacy' in martial arts."

"I think martial arts are important, but skills are even more important. Otherwise, the enemy will not talk to you about martial arts. The most important thing in actual combat is determination and skills. Only when skills are used in actual combat can we have a chance to defeat the enemy. Therefore, the moves that Master taught me in the past are very practical, and I have practiced them all, so please rest assured, Master."

"It's a pity that you have deciphered every move of mine." The master was a little disappointed.

"No way, I am afraid that I will encounter a strong enemy like Master in the future, and I am worried that I will lose, so I will seriously study the cracking method of each move; including the flaw of Wuyingquan, which is also the reason why I competed with General Zhao Yun in Xinye. I discovered it suddenly. Didn’t Master say before, ‘No move in the world is perfect, and every poison has an antidote’.”

"You are right, the moves should not be memorized by rote, but should be used flexibly, and learn how to distinguish them. It can be seen that you have also learned a lot of moves by yourself."

"Also...Master, let me show you the extent of the energy channels I have mastered." Zhiming picked up a stone and threw it high into the air, and the stone shattered in the air.

The master was very surprised, and said: "Many martial arts practitioners need years of study to comprehend this trick. Unexpectedly, in just half a year, you have already mastered it. It seems that your potential is really immeasurable. "

"Master has won the award. A strict teacher produces a high-quality apprentice."

The master was silent for a while, and said: "It seems that it's time to tell you something. Legend has it that in Kuaiji County, Jiangdong, there is a sacred mountain called Ziwu Mountain. On the top of the mountain is a 'Suppressing Demon Tower', which has five floors. It is said that there is a priceless treasure on the top floor; there is a monk with strong martial arts living on the first to fourth floors, who is responsible for guarding this object. If you have a chance in the future, you can challenge it and see if you have the ability to go to the top floor. Take away the treasure. It is said that so far, only one person has reached the third floor, that is to say, he only defeated two monks, but lost to the third one, and he has not even had the chance to meet the fourth one."

"Is there really such a mysterious place? Why haven't I heard you mention it before? I really want to try it!" Zhiming is not very interested in treasures, but likes to challenge the strong. Guard the fifth floor?"

"This is not very clear. I also heard from my master before. He originally hoped that I could challenge it. Unfortunately, I was too timid to do it. Later, he passed away. Before he left, he told me to tell my apprentice. Let him try it. Before you went to Xinye, I wanted to tell you, but I felt that the timing was inappropriate, so I kept silent. Now that I have the opportunity to say it, I have fulfilled one of Master’s last wishes. Anyway I have already told you that it is your own choice whether to go or not. I only know that this is a legend for more than 30 years. No one has ever known why this tower suddenly appeared and the origins of these monks. Don’t worry, there are Opportunity to go... Judging from today's situation, you have surpassed being a teacher. If you continue to fight just now, you must be the one who wins." The master can't care about face anymore, he is proud of his apprentice's achievements.

"Master, I..."

"It doesn't matter, this is also my wish. The mentality of being a master is the same. You will encounter more powerful enemies in the future. You must remember that no matter how powerful the move is, it will never change. It is based on solid basic skills. Premise. Today you finally understand why I have always been strict with you before? This is the reason why I insist on doing horseback riding, push-ups and running every day. Horseback footing must be firm and kicking can be powerful; push-ups must be full Only by doing more aerobic exercise can you have enough physical strength to fight. Your skill is no longer what it used to be, and you just need to accumulate experience. Experience comes from experience, so don’t be afraid of encountering difficulties , adversity can temper a person's will."

Zhiming thanked him and said, "Master's teachings over the years, I will definitely remember them in my heart!"

The master helped him up and said, "Okay, as a teacher, I have taught everything that I should teach, and I have to understand the rest by myself. After breakfast, you can go back to Xinye."

The three sat down.Alan scooped up a bowl of porridge for Zhiming, and said, "Eat it while it's hot, we'll be on our way later."

Zhiming took the bowl and didn't know what to say for a moment. He knew that deep down in Alan's heart he would be very reluctant to let him go, and he just pretended to be nonchalant in order to reduce his psychological burden.

Alan thought for a while and said, "Brother, Master told me early in the morning that you were leaving again. I knew I couldn't keep you, so I had to learn to deal with it with a normal heart. I hope you are safe. Come back when you have time."

Zhiming patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back when I have a chance in the future!"

Alan said: "Remember, you must come back! ... Also, remember to put on your clothes next time, or you won't be allowed into the house!"

"...Okay." Zhiming knew that she was trying to ease the atmosphere on purpose, but he really couldn't laugh at the moment.

After the meal, Alan handed over the luggage he had already prepared to Zhiming, and said, "Brother, your change of clothes are all inside, you should wash and change frequently while you are there, don't be lazy."

"Don't worry, I will." Zhiming put his rucksack on his shoulder and said, "Master, sister, I'm leaving. Take care."

Alan waved his hand and said, "Take care, brother."

"I'll take you down the mountain." Master said.

Alan watched the master and apprentice go down the mountain until their backs were completely submerged by Lin Hai.

After walking for a while, Zhiming said: "Master, there is no need to send it off, you can go back."

"Okay, I'm going back, you have to be careful. Remember, in everything, you have to face up to difficulties, and don't retreat when you face difficulties." It seems that the master hasn't taught enough, and he is still persuasive and persuasive.

Zhiming didn't say anything, just nodded, bowed deeply, and left.

Looking at his back, the master suddenly felt a sense of loss, thinking: "No matter which world he belongs to, he is always my apprentice and son whom I have adopted for 20 years!"

Zhiming walked on the road with mixed feelings.The day before yesterday, he was still engaged in a brutal battle in Wujie, but yesterday he returned home and regained the warmth of home.Today, he has to leave home in a hurry again, everything seems so hasty and helpless.In fact, he can stay at home for a few more days, but Master thinks farther than he does. He hopes that he can become a soldier who truly cares about the country and the people as soon as possible.As the master said, there is always a way to go, and what he has to do now is to continue to move towards his mission.
