Zhang Zhilin and Ye Ze came to a cliff, where there was a waterfall, flowing down with great force, falling into the pool at the bottom of the cliff. There is a row of stone paths in the pool. The road is a straight road, crossing the entire pond, and in the middle of the road, that is, in the center of the pond, there is a stone platform with a pavilion on the platform.
Ye Ze motioned for Zhang Zhilin to follow him, and then stepped onto the stone road. Zhang Zhilin looked left and right, then glanced sideways and looked back. Just stepped out.
Ye Ze took all this in his eyes and asked him with a smile, "What? Do you even doubt me?"
Zhang Zhilin directly denied, "No."
Ye Ze smiled and then exposed Zhang Zhilin, "Although I don't know what happened on the Sansheng Bridge, I still know what happened outside the Sansheng Bridge. When you and the other young man came together, you walked in front and suddenly turned around, clearly You just don't worry about the one following you. And if I guessed correctly, if it weren't for the Yinglong dragon scales on the young man named Gu Yucheng, you wouldn't be destined for Taiyi Palace."
After Zhang Zhilin was exposed, he calmly replied, "It's just a habit."
Ye Ze shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong with being defensive. I won't tell you this anymore, just follow me."
The two of them immediately set foot on the stone road, and soon came to the pavilion on the stone platform. There was nothing in the pavilion, so they had to sit on the ground.
Ye Zeming lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was looking at the water in the pool, and seemed to be thinking about something. Zhang Zhilin was not in a hurry and allowed Ye Ze to remain silent.
Ye Ze paused for a long time, and secretly cursed in his heart, "Damn Donghuang." Then he raised his head and looked at Zhang Zhilin, only to see Zhang Zhilin looking at him calmly and generously, without any feeling of timidity, Ye Ze nodded. Then he got straight to the point and said, "Besides swordsmanship and medicine, what else do you have learned?"
Zhang Zhilin was stunned for a moment before he realized what was going on. He shook his head and said no.
Ye Ze nodded, and then said, "This is the heart-nurturing platform I built. If you want to practice swordsmanship, you can talk to me here. As for the medicine, I'm not bad at giving you some advice."
Zhang Zhilin lifted his spirits for a moment and was very excited, but soon showed a thoughtful expression.
Seeing this, Ye Ze glanced at Zhang Zhilin in confusion and waited for Zhang Zhilin. After thinking for a moment, Zhang Zhilin asked, "Do you have a supreme swordsmanship?"
Ye Ze was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows, stared at Zhang Zhilin for a while, and then chuckled. Then he asked without answering, "Do you know the hundreds of schools of thought?"
Zhang Zhilin also showed doubts after hearing this, but still answered directly, "Of course I know."
Ye Ze then added, "The studies of all scholars are based on the shortcomings of saving the world. How to judge which one is better and which one is worse?"
Zhang Zhilin didn't know why Ye Ze asked these questions, but he still started thinking about it. After a moment, Zhang Zhilin replied, "The offensive and defensive forces are different. When Qin Bao conquered the inner world and swept across the wilderness, Legalists and military strategists were naturally superior. When Qin established his dynasty and proclaimed himself emperor, Confucianism and Legalists were superior."
Ye Ze nodded, and then said, "Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty made a three-chapter agreement with the people because the Qin laws were too harsh. Zhuge Liang punished him severely because of the unresolved criminal laws in Shu. Both of these are appropriate for the time." Then he stopped talking. Just a word. He just looked at Zhang Zhilin lightly.
The moment Zhang Zhilin and Ye Ze looked at each other, they suddenly realized and said directly, "No matter what kind of swordsmanship it is, it is not the same. At that time, citrus fruits tasted sweet to me. But at that time, I also tasted bitter fruits. It may not be astringent.”
Ye Ze nodded with satisfaction.
"So, what kind of swordsmanship to learn depends on what suits me?" Zhang Zhilin asked.
Grandpa nodded. Just as he was about to say something more, he heard Zhang Zhilin's questioning voice, "But I haven't even tasted it. How do I know that the Supreme Sword Technique is not suitable for me?"
Ye Ze was immediately choked and reached out to knock Zhang Zhilin directly. Zhang Zhilin wanted to hide, but Ye Ze's realm was there, and Ye Ze insisted on knocking him, how could Zhang Zhilin escape?
Ye Ze slapped Zhang Zhilin on the head, "Follow a thousand tunes and then the dawn will sound, watch a thousand swords and then recognize the weapon! How can you achieve your own swordsmanship if you don't combine the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought?"
Zhang Zhilin originally wanted to talk back, but when he saw that the elegant Ye Ze in front of him was blushing and his calm eyes were a little excited, he immediately stopped talking and even suppressed a question in his mind.
Zhang Zhilin sat there and listened to Ye Ze's lecture. There is a lot of talk about how to be a person and not to be too ambitious, and not to be greedy for too much but not too good at doing things. Zhang Zhilin listened with one ear and heard with the other, and basically didn't think about it in his heart. Just waiting for Ye Ze to calm down. After Ye Ze said a lot, he also calmed down, and then said to Zhang Zhilin, "There are all kinds of weapons, and the sword is a gentleman's, and there should be a golden mean. And all kinds of weapons are divided into three stages: Tao magic."
"Do you know all this?" Ye Ze asked lightly. Zhang Zhilin shook his head and nodded slightly.
I’ve heard of that magic spell before. But the saying "A sword is a gentleman's, should follow the golden mean." This statement has never been heard before.
Ye Ze saw Zhang Zhilin's reaction, but didn't say anything. He just reminded, "Although these words are short, they have a deep charm and are worthy of your repeated experience. But there is no need to explain them to you one by one now."
"Let's just talk about the three stages of this spell first." Ye Ze sat cross-legged, lowered his hands and said, "The Tao is shown by broadness, the method is shown by selection, and the technique is shown by specialization."
"To put it simply, the Tao is for the public to see and is used for dissemination. The Dharma is for those who can learn the Dharma. Therefore, when it comes to preaching, the target audience is the general public, but when preaching the Dharma, it is indeed a specific audience. It’s just a group of people. This is what the Tao means when it is revealed in a broad way, and the Dharma is revealed in a selective way.”
"As for specialization, it is a specialized technique. It can even be said that one person has one technique, and thousands of people have thousands of techniques. Although there will be similarities, they will never be exactly the same."
Ye Ze concluded, "So the first thing a sword practitioner must learn is the kendo passed down by various schools and dynasties. Just like building a house, you must explore the foundation and what is suitable for building. If the Tao does not reach a certain level If you don't understand hundreds of Tao and don't have a solid enough foundation, you may not be able to do anything, but if you think about academics, you will be like a building with insufficient foundation. Exposing it will bring disaster to yourself and completely ruin your journey of practicing swordsmanship."
Zhang Zhilin felt Ye Zexian's gaze coming towards him, and he also knew that Ye Ze was trying to beat him. In fact, Zhang Zhilin only stayed at the Tao stage when it came to Tao magic. He only knew a few Tao. Although he was very proficient in it, it can be seen from Ye Ze's words that it was far from enough. of. I don't know much about the differences between these Tao spells either. After hearing what Ye Ze said this time, he lost his temper. Listen attentively to Ye Ze's words.
Zhang Zhilin was listening attentively, but found that he couldn't hear any sound. He looked up again and found Ye Ze looking at him.
Ye Ze couldn't help but feel a little satisfied when he saw Zhang Zhilin's expression of seeking knowledge, and then said leisurely, "I have finished what I need to say."
Zhang Zhilin's eyes were wide open, and he was clearly asking Ye Ze, "I have already listened carefully, but you have finished speaking?"
Ye Zeze nodded thoughtfully. Zhang Zhilin immediately wanted to scold him but couldn't.
Ye Ze ignored Zhang Zhilin's reaction and directly threw a bamboo slip at Zhang Zhilin. Zhang Zhilin reached out to catch it. After looking at it carefully, I saw that it was a bamboo slip with a space to accommodate it. Zhang Zhilin looked at it several times, but could not see the grade of this bamboo slip, and immediately realized that it was a good thing.
Ye Ze pointed at the bottom of the waterfall with his hand and said affirmatively, "Have you seen that waterfall?"
Zhang Zhilin nodded. Ye Ze then continued, "Meditate under that waterfall. When will you memorize all the one hundred and eighty kendos, and fully understand any ten of them, when will you come out again."
Zhang Zhilin was overjoyed after hearing this and threw his consciousness directly into the bamboo slips. Immediately, sword techniques poured into Zhang Zhilin's consciousness one after another. Zhang Zhilin was a little selfless for a moment, completely forgetting that Ye Ze said he wanted to go under the waterfall to see it.
Although Ye Ze admired Zhang Zhilin's eagerness to learn and learn, he still was not polite to Zhang Zhilin and kicked Zhang Zhilin into the water.
Zhang Zhilin was caught off guard and choked on a large mouthful of water, and hurriedly picked up the bamboo slips floating in the water. Then he held the bamboo slip under his arm, glared at Ye Ze, turned around and cursed in a low voice, "Old man." He swam towards the waterfall without looking back.
Zhang Zhilin swam under the waterfall and discovered that under the waterfall was a stone platform large enough for one person to meditate. It was also a place where the waterfall continued to wash away as it fell. Zhang Zhilin felt the strong spiritual power in the waterfall. I couldn't believe it for a while.
However, when Zhang Zhilin sat cross-legged and meditated on the stone platform, Zhang Zhilin was washed by the waterfall and truly felt the spiritual power contained in the waterfall, only then did Zhang Zhilin completely confirm it. ——The five elements of spiritual power in the dragon gate are used to comprehend the realm of enlightenment, and here they are providing spiritual power for themselves to break through to the realm of enlightenment!
This is completely a one-stop service. ——Of course, Zhang Zhilin didn't know Yilong. At this moment, he only felt that he was well arranged. It actually made him feel so comfortable that he didn't know what to say.
But Zhang Zhilin soon entered the state. Putting the bamboo slip on his lap, he began to feel it carefully.
At this time, Ye Ze looked at Zhang Zhilin who was meditating and began to plan on his own.
"The aura of medicine in this boy's body is much stronger than the sword aura in him. It seems that he is particularly close to medicine." Ye Ze thought for a while, "Since I can't guide him properly, I can let him The Qianxun Pu guide... But it’s not easy to come forward, after all, everyone thinks I’m dead. It’s not easy for me to expose their speculation... What should I do..."
Ye Ze kept making plans, but he didn't know that Zhang Zhilin, who he was optimistic about and had a talent for medicine, came from Qianxun Pu. It's still a life-and-death situation with the Zhang family, the second family in the Qianxun genealogy. If Ye Ze knew this, he would probably have a headache...
