Taoist priest Yuanyue did not teach Zhang Ren the Tai Chi moves step by step.
Instead, let him feel the various strengths and exertions of Tai Chi first. Once he finds the feeling of using four ounces of weight and using force to exert force, then the practice of Tai Chi will be a matter of course.
In the next few days, Taoist Priest Yuanyue would come over every day to give instructions on his martial arts, from Tai Chi to techniques for using internal force, to some sword techniques commonly used by the Wudang Sect.
He taught some of the most basic things, so there was no need to worry about Zhang Ren not being able to master them.
Relying on his strong internal strength, although he has not yet fully comprehended many things, Zhang Ren has already had his first glimpse of the path.
Finally on the tenth day, Zhang Ren's sword energy penetrated the big tree and formed a circular hole in the trunk.
Taoist Priest Yuanyue on the side nodded, stroked his beard and said, "That's right. Control your inner strength to one point without spreading out. Now your sword energy is enough to penetrate heavy armor."
Zhang Ren didn't expect that he had become so powerful now. He couldn't hide his excitement. He turned around and saluted Taoist Master Yuanyue and said, "Disciple, thank you Master for your teaching."
Taoist Priest Yuanyue waved his hand gently and said, "Although you have gained a glimpse of the door, you should not be too complacent. The road to martial arts training is long and you need to keep working hard every day."
Zhang Ren thanked Taoist Priest Yuanyue again.
Taoist Master Yuanyue said again: "Okay, I will go back now, master. The ten-day period has come. You can go back early tomorrow morning."
…
Early the next morning, Zhang Ren packed up his clothes and carried the Xuanyang Sword on his back.
Just after leaving the cave entrance, I saw Yin Tongyi already standing here.
Zhang Ren was originally worried that Yin Tongyi would have some grudge against him, but now that he saw Yin Tongyi coming to pick him up, Zhang Ren knew that Yin Tongyi was no longer angry with him.
Zhang Ren smiled slightly and said, "Fourth Senior Brother."
Yin Tongyi pointed to the devastated back mountain and asked in amazement: "Junior brother, did you do all this?"
Zhang Ren nodded slightly, acknowledging it.
Yin Tongyi curled his lips and said, "I did scold you that day. I also know that you may have resentment in your heart, but no matter how much resentment you have, you shouldn't vent your anger on these flowers, plants and trees."
Zhang Ren scratched his head and said, "How dare I hold any grudge against Fourth Senior Brother? It's just that I have been practicing here these days, and I have cut down a lot of flowers and plants."
Yin Tongyi said: "Really not?"
Zhang Ren nodded and said, "Of course not."
Yin Tongyi also smiled and said: "Since this is the case, I'm relieved. I was worried that your kid would be resentful of me. But you, your kid, have been practicing martial arts here for the past few days. Have you developed any skills?"
Zhang Ren grinned, "Fourth Senior Brother, won't you know if you try it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ren had already rushed in front of Yin Tongyi. He raised his fist and attacked Yin Tongyi's face directly.
Yin Tongyi also sighed in his heart: Junior Brother's speed is indeed much faster than before.
However, such a speed would not cause any trouble to Yin Tongyi. He waved one hand slightly outward to remove the power from Zhang Ren's fist. His other hand bent into an elbow and smashed directly into Zhang Ren's fist. Zhang Ren's middle gate.
….
Zhang Ren also took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, using Yin Tongyi's blocking power to avoid the blow.
The two of them were separated at the first touch, and after this move, the two of them were evenly matched.
Zhang Ren didn't know the moves in Tai Chi, so he was useless, but the dodge he just made was based on the theory of Tai Chi.
Yin Tongyi frowned and said: "Leveraging strength for strength, junior brother has learned Tai Chi?"
Zhang Ren smiled slightly, gestured a little distance with his hand, and said: "I have learned a little bit, which is roughly equivalent to the first glimpse of the door."
Yin Tongyi has extraordinary skills. Over the years, several senior brothers have come down the mountain one after another. He has not competed with anyone for a long time. Today he got the opportunity. Yin Tongyi also smiled slightly and said: "Junior brother, don't let me down. Let's fight today."
Have fun, come again! "
After saying that, Yin Tongyi waved his palm forward. This time he was the first to strike, so he did not choose Tai Chi, but used the Mountain Shaking Palm.
Carrying the power of shaking the mountain in his palm, he went straight towards Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren also knew that Yin Tongyi's internal strength was still better than his own, so he did not choose to fight head-on. Instead, he grabbed Yin Tongyi's wrist and moved his whole body backward.
He was borrowing Yin Tongyi's power in an attempt to bring Yin Tongyi down.
But how could Yin Tongyi get what he wanted?
Yin Tongyi's feet suddenly exerted force, and his whole body jumped up. With a clever twist on his wrist, he got rid of Zhang Ren's control.
Yin Tongyi hit a set of returning wind palms in the air.
This palm technique was like a gentle breeze, with no place to draw strength from. Zhang Ren had no choice but to retreat slowly.
The two of them started to compete on the back mountain. Both of them had strong internal strength and would not get tired easily. After a long time, the two of them stopped competing.
Zhang Ren naturally knew that Yin Tongyi had not used all his strength just now, otherwise Yin Tongyi's strength would have defeated him long ago.
Zhang Ren cupped his hands and said to Yin Tongyi, "Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother, for showing mercy."
Yin Tongyi nodded slightly and said, "I didn't expect that you could make such progress in just ten days. I think it's not impossible for you to surpass me in a few years."
Zhang Ren's basic skills are good, his understanding is also high, and with his strong internal strength, he can learn any martial arts quickly. As long as he can practice martial arts systematically, it is normal to make rapid progress.
Even Yin Tongyi had to admit that it was normal for Zhang Ren to surpass him if he continued to improve at this rate.
But they were all from the same sect, and Yin Tongyi didn't feel sore. He just sighed at Zhang Ren's ability and understanding. Looking up and down, Yin Tongyi finally noticed the sword on Zhang Ren's back.
"Xuan Yang?" Yin Tongyi couldn't help but exclaimed.
Zhang Ren nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it is the Xuanyang Sword."
Yin Tongyi said: "This is Master's sword. Did he give this sword to you?"
Zhang Ren nodded again.
Yin Tongyi smacked his lips, shook his head and said: "It's so irritating that people are more powerful than others. It's just that you have a good foundation and a good understanding. You still have many strange encounters in your life. Grandmaster and Uncle Wuji both like you. Now the master has given Xuanyang to you." You are so enviable."
Zhang Ren didn't know how to answer the question, so he could only stand aside and giggle.
….
Yin Tongyi stepped forward and said, "Okay, let's not stay in the back mountain anymore. Let's go back early."
Zhang Ren nodded, and the two of them walked side by side. Zhang Ren asked again: "Fourth Senior Brother, is there nothing serious about Tongyi?"
Yin Tongyi said softly: "She doesn't know martial arts, but fortunately you only hurt her with the wind of your fist that day, and she was a little frightened, so she fainted. Now she is fine, but she still knows how to do it more or less." I feel a little resentful towards you."
Zhang Ren asked again: "Fourth Senior Brother, can you take me to find Tongyi?"
Yin Tongyi glanced sideways at Zhang Ren and asked in confusion: "She still resents you. If you go to find her now, wouldn't you be asking for trouble? You should listen to your senior brother. After a few days, wait until she feels better. talk later."
Zhang Ren said, "Although I didn't mean it, I hurt Tong Yi anyway. Even if she resents me, I have to apologize to her in person."
Yin Tongyi saw Zhang Ren's determined look and knew he couldn't defeat him, so he had no choice but to agree.
Tong Yi's residence is not far from Yin Tongyi's residence. As soon as she arrived here, Tong Yi in the courtyard looked wary. She quickly took two steps back and asked Zhang Ren angrily: "What are you doing here? Well? I defrauded those twenty taels of silver based on my strength. It is impossible to go back. I still say the same thing, if you don’t have money, you will lose your life!”
There seemed to be few women in the world who were reasonable. Zhang Ren shook his head helplessly and said, "I didn't know you were a woman before, so I offended you so much. I didn't come here today to ask for money. I came here on a special trip." Pass
I came to apologize to you. "
That was a full twenty taels of silver. For many people, it was enough to count as their wealth and life. Therefore, Tong Yi couldn’t believe that Zhang Ren didn’t care about the twenty taels of silver, let alone that Zhang Ren would take the initiative to come and follow him. Apologize yourself.
Tong Yi looked cautious, took another half step back, and asked Zhang Ren, "What on earth are you going to do?"
Zhang Ren had no choice but to explain again: "I really came to apologize."
Tong glanced at Yin Tongyi beside him, and saw Yin Tongyi nodded slightly towards her.
Tong Yi didn't trust Zhang Ren, but she had immense trust in Yin Tongyi. In her eyes, Yin Tongyi was like an elder brother.
Tong Yi frowned, lowered his voice and asked, "Are you really here to apologize to me?"
Zhang Ren cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I accidentally hurt you that day. I am here to apologize to you."
After hearing this, Tong Yi, who was still a little nervous at first, immediately stood up straight. She took two steps forward and asked again: "Then twenty taels of silver?"
Zhang Ren had no choice but to say, "Quan should just apologize to you."
Tong Yi was overjoyed and was about to cheer, but was interrupted by Yin Tongyi who was standing aside: "You can apologize for twenty taels of silver? Junior brother, you are from Jinling City after all. If you want to apologize, you must have enough money." Sincerity."
Zhang Ren looked at Yin Tongyi in shock, and had a new definition of the shameless side of the fourth senior brother. However, thinking that in order to maintain the unity of the Wudang Sect, Zhang Ren could only ask in a low voice: "Then what do the fourth senior brothers think?" with honesty?"
Yin Tongyi pointed at Tong Yi next to him and said, "It's Tong Yi you injured. What's the use of asking me? Of course you have to ask Tong Yi."
Zhang Ren turned his head and waited for Tong Yi's answer.
Tong Yi didn't dare to speak loudly, but when he saw Yin Tongyi here, he bravely said, "How about you invite us down the mountain for a big meal?"
Twenty taels of silver were already gone, how could Zhang Ren care about the money for a big meal? He immediately agreed: "Okay! Anyway, it's almost dinner time. Let's go down the mountain and have a big meal. As long as the town down the mountain has it, you can order whatever you want."
After hearing this, Tong Yi could no longer control his inner joy and jumped up with cheers.
Yin Tongyi stood aside and patted his forehead helplessly, and said angrily: "Tongyi, what a great opportunity to rip off a big business, let you waste it just to have a big meal of you Just forgive him, Zhang Ren is so cheap."
Night rivers and lakes.
