Chapter 51 Will You Be Happy? ( words~)

Feng Qingyang’s secluded place was not far from the Yunu Peak. Shi Potian ran all the way and when he returned to the Yunu Peak, the sunset had not yet completely set and was half hanging between the towering mountains.

From a distance, Shi Potian saw Yue Lingshan standing outside the large house with whitewashed walls, standing on tiptoes and looking around.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Yue Lingshan was like a golden sculpture. Every inch of her skin was dyed with a faint glow, dazzling, elegant and graceful, making people feel ashamed and dare not look directly at her.

“Big Brother!”

The moment she saw Shi Potian, a bright smile broke out on Yue Lingshan’s face, and she ran towards him like a cheerful and lively lark.

Shi Potian stared at Yue Lingshan blankly. This was the most beautiful sight he had ever seen in his life.

“Big Brother? Big Brother?”

Yue Lingshan came to Shi Potian and saw that he was motionless. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and said with a smile: “What are you daydreaming about?”

Shi Potian blurted out: “Junior sister, you are so beautiful.”

Yue Lingshan blushed, but she didn’t shy away or pretend to be angry like she used to. Instead, she asked in a low voice, “Big Brother, do you really think so?”

Shi Potian nodded vigorously: “Yes, she is prettier than the fairies in the paintings.”

Yue Lingshan’s eyes were filled with joy. She mustered up all her courage and asked, “Then…then are you willing to stay with me forever, for all eternity, and never leave me?”

Shi Potian said without hesitation: “Of course I am willing. We will be together in this life, the next life, and the next life, forever.”

Yue Lingshan held Shi Potian’s hands tightly, with infinite tenderness in her heart, and called softly, “Big Brother.”

Shi Potian looked at the beautiful face in front of him, with a shy but happy smile, and smelled the faint fragrance emanating from Yue Lingshan’s body, and his heart couldn’t help but be moved.

Although he was ignorant about matters between men and women, he naturally felt love for Yue Lingshan in this situation and couldn’t help but open his arms and embrace Yue Lingshan.

This moment.

Everything in the outside world seems to be so far away.

The only thing left in their eyes and hearts was each other.

It was not until the sun had completely set and night had fallen that the two suddenly realized how late it was. They reluctantly parted ways and walked hand in hand towards Huashan Sect.

Yue Lingshan asked, “Big Brother, where did you go today? Why did you come back so late?”

Shi Potian said: “I got lost and ran in the mountains for a long time before I met an old man. The old man was so pitiful. All his family members died and he lived alone in the mountains.”

Shi Potian never cared about other people’s martial arts skills. All his stories were about how lonely and pitiful Feng Qingyang was, and how shabby and miserable the food he ate was.

Yue Lingshan didn’t think too much about it.

The Huashan Sect is named after Huashan, but Huashan has never belonged to the Huashan Sect. There are mostly villages, farmers, woodcutters and hunters on the mountain. It is normal for people to live in the mountains.

Not to mention, in Shi Potian’s words, Feng Qingyang’s face looked sallow, which was obviously not the complexion of a martial arts master.

Yue Lingshan liked Shi Potian’s kindness very much. When she heard Shi Potian’s promise to visit Feng Qingyang more often and talk to him, she said, “Big Brother, I will go with you next time you go. Let’s bring him more food, drinks, and clothes, and talk to him more.”

When Yue Lingshan was at the foot of the mountain before, she had also walked hand in hand with Shi Potian, but the feeling now was completely different.

She walked very slowly, just hoping to walk like this for a while longer.

But, with such a short distance, no matter how slowly you walk, you will eventually finish it.

When they reached the gate of Huashan Sect, Yue Lingshan let go of Shi Potian’s hand and walked in before him, shouting with a guilty conscience, “Big Brother is back.”

The Huashan disciples who were still practicing sword skills all looked over, their faces filled with joy of seeing their savior.

Normally at this time, they would have already been eating in the cafeteria.

But today they were severely scolded by Yue Buqun. Before getting Yue Buqun’s permission, they dared not mention the matter of eating. They could only practice sword skills honestly, and their clothes and hair were soaked with sweat.

“Big Brother, you are finally back.”

Lu Dayou quickly stepped forward and said, “It’s almost time for dinner, and the master hasn’t come out yet. Go and persuade him not to starve himself.”

“Yes, Big Brother, please go in quickly.”

The other Huashan disciples nodded and urged Shi Potian to go in and persuade their master to eat.

Only Lin Pingzhi turned a deaf ear to the outside world and practiced the first few moves of Huashan swordsmanship seriously. Even though his arms were sore and uncomfortable, he still practiced carefully and tried to make each sword as standard as possible.

When Shi Potian heard his fellow disciples say this, he also became worried about Yue Buqun’s health and hurried into the hall.

Ning Zhongze was no longer in the hall. Only Yue Buqun was sitting at the table, flipping through the book of secret martial arts skills while writing down his insights on the rice paper beside him.

Shi Potian shouted, “Master.”

Yue Buqun suddenly came back to his senses, looked up and saw that it was Shi Potian, subconsciously he covered the rice paper with his arm and said, “Chong’er, you’re back.”

Shi Potian said: “Master, it’s so late, you should go eat, don’t starve yourself.”

Yue Buqun then realized that it was already dark outside.

He was immersed in comprehending Qinggong, and had no idea when Shi Potian came back, so he didn’t ask any more questions. He stood up, put away the books and rice paper, and said, “Let’s go.”

When he walked outside, he saw that his disciples were still practicing sword skills, but their eyes were clearly glancing at him.

Yue Buqun snorted coldly and said, “Your mind is not here anymore, why are you still practicing? Go eat.”

The disciples did not dare to show any joy. They responded with a “yes”, sheathed their swords, lowered their heads and walked quickly towards the cafeteria.

Lin Pingzhi also put away his sword and followed his fellow brothers. Just as he was about to go to the cafeteria, Yue Buqun called him, “Pingzhi, wait a moment.”

Lin Pingzhi was startled, walked forward, bowed and said, “Master.”

Yue Buqun said: “You performed the move ‘Pine Welcoming Guests’ quite well just now. You must have practiced it carefully.”

Lin Pingzhi said happily: “I will work harder and live up to Master’s teachings.”

Yue Buqun nodded and said to Shi Potian: “Chong’er, tomorrow you will pass on ‘Golden Goose Across the Sky’ to your Junior Brother Lin.”

The Huashan School, or the Huashan Qi Sect, places great emphasis on the training of Qi, and emphasizes gradual progress, while avoiding quick success and instant benefits.

In order to prevent the disciples from becoming impetuous, he even taught them the sword techniques one move at a time.

The next move will only be taught after you have practiced and mastered the previous one.

Shi Potian was originally the same.

When Yue Buqun was in Fuzhou, he wanted to practice the Huashan sword technique with Shi Potian as a whole, and then teach him one move at a time.

As a result, Shi Potian learned most of the sword skills and grasped the essence of it after only watching him use the sword once.

This is why Yue Buqun made an exception and passed on the rest of the sword techniques to Shi Potian.

Lin Pingzhi did not receive this treatment.

On his way back, after he had mastered the Huashan internal skills, Yue Buqun taught him the six moves of Huashan swordsmanship.

After practicing hard for half a month, I finally mastered it.

Yue Buqun intends to let Lin Pingzhi take over Lao Denuo’s position as chief foreign affairs manager, assisting Shi Potian, the next leader of the Huashan Sect, and be responsible for the future foreign affairs of the Huashan Sect.

That’s why he specifically asked Shi Potian, the eldest disciple, to teach Lin Pingzhi the swordsmanship instead of giving it to other disciples.

The grace of imparting skills and techniques is a great favor, even if one is imparting skills on behalf of a teacher.

Lin Pingzhi received Shi Potian’s kindness, and if he did anything to offend Shi Potian in the future, he would be condemned by thousands of people and ruined. Shi Potian didn’t know this, but since it was his master’s order, he agreed without hesitation.

Lin Pingzhi was also filled with joy and thanked Yue Buqun and Shi Potian repeatedly.

Only Yue Lingshan was a little unhappy. She wanted to spend more time with her senior brother, but this happened.

However, Yue Lingshan soon came up with an idea and said, “Dad, you know the talent of our senior brother. He can learn something with just one look, but he may not know how to teach it to others. Why don’t I teach him together with my senior brother?”

Yue Buqun thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He nodded and said, “Okay. Then you two will be responsible for teaching Pingzhi the sword skills.” He glanced at Lin Pingzhi standing aside and saw that Lin Pingzhi’s expression did not change much.

Yue Buqun knew that Lin Pingzhi had realized the gap between himself and Shi Potian, and had given up his previous unrealistic ideas.

This is also normal.

The young man’s admiration for Ai was like the tide, coming quickly and going quickly.

Not to mention, Lin Pingzhi was hit on the head by a mountain.

Yue Buqun also did not teach Shi Potian how to impart swordsmanship.

This in itself is a deterrent.

The next morning.

Shi Potian and Yue Lingshan led Lin Pingzhi to an open space in the back mountain.

Most of the Huashan disciples have already learned the “Golden Goose Flying Across the Sky”, the entry-level sword technique of Huashan. However, the rules of passing on the skills still need to be followed and must be kept away from the eyes and ears of others.

Shi Potian recalled the process of Yue Buqun teaching him sword skills, and said: “Junior brother Lin, let me demonstrate ‘Golden Goose Across the Sky’ to you first.” He drew his sword and walked to the open space, and performed ‘Golden Goose Across the Sky’.

After fighting with Ding Mian and the other two, Shi Potian had already mastered all the moves he had learned. He performed the Golden Goose Across the Sky with great standard, but it was not rigid at all, and it had a graceful and lively charm.

The sword flashed, and it was as if a wild goose really flew across the sky, spreading its wings and soaring.

Lin Pingzhi’s eyes lit up and he looked at Shi Potian anxiously.

result……

Shi Potian: “Junior Brother Lin, it’s your turn.”

Lin Pingzhi: “???”

Lin Pingzhi was confused.

Yue Lingshan burst out laughing. She had guessed that this would be the scene!
“Big Brother, this is not the way to teach swordsmanship. You have to do this.”

Yue Lingshan stood up and walked off the stage, picked up the sword, held it horizontally to the side, then stopped and said, “This is the first step.”

Then he thrust the sword sideways and took a step forward.

“This is the second step.”

He hooked his feet back, leaned his body back, and swept the sword horizontally.

“This is step three.”

“There are three variations of the fourth step. You have to decide which one to take based on your opponent’s reaction. The first one is…”

……

……

Shi Potian looked confused as he watched Yue Lingshan divide a sword technique into more than twenty steps.

He never knew that ‘Golden Goose Across the Sky’ was so complicated!
Lin Pingzhi was focused, trying to remember every step in his mind.

Yue Lingshan demonstrated all the steps, and then asked Lin Pingzhi to follow her and learn each move one by one.

After doing this several times, Lin Pingzhi basically memorized the movements.

Yue Lingshan no longer led Lin Pingzhi in practicing sword. Instead, she asked Lin Pingzhi to practice for her and corrected his mistakes and non-standard practices bit by bit.

After a few more times.

Lin Pingzhi’s movements were generally fine.

Yue Lingshan let Lin Pingzhi practice on his own, and she would come back to check after half an hour.

At this point, an hour has already passed.

Yue Lingshan looked at Shi Potian with his eyes wide open and a confused expression. She was both angry and amused: “Did you get stupid? Humph, do you think everyone is like you and can learn sword techniques just by watching them once?”

“Even though I have already broken down ‘Golden Goose Across the Sky’ into this, it will take Senior Brother Lin at least two days to master it, and I don’t know how many times he will have to correct his mistakes in the process.”

“And our Huashan entry-level swordsmanship has thirty-six moves. I don’t know how much time it will take to learn all of these thirty-six moves, connect them together, and then integrate them into one, so that I can use them with ease.”

When Yue Lingshan said this, she couldn’t help but sigh, thinking of the hardships she had endured in practicing martial arts over the years.

Practicing sword is actually not a big deal.

After all, it is something that allows people to see their own strength improvement.

Winning in competitions with your peers can also give you a sense of accomplishment and fill you with motivation.

What is really unbearable is practicing inner strength.

That is a completely slow and painstaking process.

Even if you practice for ten days or half a month, it is difficult to see an increase in your internal strength, and that little increase in internal strength may not necessarily improve your strength much.

This is extremely despairing.

What’s even more despairing is that you don’t even have the chance to touch these things.

Just like those ordinary people, wanderers in the world and even the former Lin Pingzhi.

He also worked hard to practice martial arts for many years, but they were all fancy moves. When he really encountered trouble, they were of no use at all.

“Big Brother, let’s go over there and let Brother Lin practice here for a while.”

Yue Lingshan pulled Shi Potian towards the back mountain.

After walking for a while, I heard the sound of water rumbling. Not far ahead, I saw a waterfall falling from the top of the mountain.

Seeing that Shi Potian was silent and seemed to be thinking about something, Yue Lingshan regretted what she had just said. She deliberately changed the subject and said, “Big Brother, do you remember that we wanted to create a sword technique that uses the agitation of water to perform sword moves?”

Shi Potian’s attention was drawn to it, and he asked curiously, “Using the agitation of the water flow to perform sword moves?”

Yue Lingshan said: “When we fight with others, if the opponent has deep internal strength, his weapons and fists often have strong internal strength, which is invisible and tangible and can knock our swords away.”

“We were thinking of practicing swordplay under the waterfall, using the impact of the water force as the enemy’s internal force, and creating a swordplay that could block the enemy’s internal force, use the force to counter the enemy’s internal force, and draw the opponent’s internal force to attack his own swordplay.”

Shi Potian thought what Yue Lingshan said was very interesting and reasonable, and asked, “Have we mastered it?”

Yue Lingshan sighed, “It’s not that easy. We studied for a long time, but in the end, we just came up with a way to use the sword technique my father taught us to stab in the waterfall. Even if there are some new tricks, they are just for fun and are completely useless.”

As she was talking, Yue Lingshan saw that Shi Potian had fallen into silent thought again, and finally couldn’t help asking: “Big Brother, what have you been thinking about all this time?”

Shi Potian said: “Junior sister, if I create a set of sword techniques like this, would you be happy?”
