I saw Ye Feng holding a long sword with two hands, with the blade facing up and down. His right hand held the sword hilt in front of the guard, and his left hand held it behind. When holding the sword, the tiger's mouth of the left hand must be close to the wrist of the right hand, so that it forms a double-handed move. Ye Feng was very busy, naturally to let Chi Yueling see clearly.
Ye Feng asked: "Have you seen clearly how to hold the sword?"
Chi Yueling said: "Yes, I see clearly."
And Ye Feng smiled and said: "I will assume that you have seen it clearly, but you have to remember that what I teach you is only the basics, not everything."
Ye Feng teaches his disciples in order to teach them to be flexible and reformers who can draw inferences from one instance to another. They are definitely not the rigid version of "Sharingan Kakashi". Besides, the real Kakashi can at least create his own Chidori Raikiri, right? ? In Ye Feng's opinion, there is no so-called correct way to hold a two-handed sword. Because if it is correct, then the answer is the only one and cannot be changed. In fact, if you can find a way to hold the sword that is comfortable for you and can complete all the requirements for using a two-handed sword, then no matter how strange the way to hold the sword is, it is the best way to hold it personally.
When children born on the sea learn to swim, they go directly into the water and rely on their own feelings to figure out how to avoid sinking and how to swim faster. By the time they fully learn how to swim, even if no one has ever taught them, they will learn how to swim. It is also almost the same as the so-called standard swimming posture.
No child would first learn the standard swimming posture and then think about swimming in the water with the standard posture, because that is fundamentally a joke, so most swimming pools nowadays are almost a joke.
"Both hands must have strong arm strength and soft wrist strength; a balance of hardness and softness, and even steps. The two-handed sword must use the waist to move the steps, use the steps to lead the momentum, chop, stab, and stir, so that it can be like a living dragon."
As he said this, Ye Feng lowered his body, pulled the hilt of his sword back and forth, and made a "crouching step with pressure on the sword". He then stepped forward to pick up the sword, then moved to draw the sword, and clicked, washed, picked, and slashed. Sword, then step up and cut, step up and cut down, lift up and cut down, then twist the sword and stab in front, draw the sword in reverse, step back and lift the sword, lift the sword, and then step back and point the sword, shuffling horizontally. Then Guijian walked around and pointed the sword, raised the sword and drew the sword diagonally. Yun Mo turned around and stabbed the sword. . .
Ye Feng finished his set, and Linglong, who had returned to the audience, said strangely: "Although Dad's sword skills with this set of two-handed swords are very smooth, but why do I feel that it is a bit, a bit..."
"A bit low, isn't it?" Tu Shanling asked.
"Yeah." Linglong said.
"But Feng is very powerful. He didn't stir up a single snowflake during his walk," Ren Xiaojin said.
At this moment, Ye Feng suddenly said: "This may be a bit low, but if you understand the whole story, you won't think so."
Qingni asked: "What's the whole story?"
Ye Feng said: "Qing'er, it's like this. In fact, the two-handed swordsmanship of Huaxia was lost in the Song Dynasty before the Ming Dynasty. But in fact, two-handed swords were also popular in Huaxia in the Tang Dynasty, and they were as long as the chest. Later, the two-handed swords were combined with other swords. Swordsmanship was also imported abroad. In the Ming Dynasty, Mao Yuanyi tried to learn from Chao Xian's two-handed sword to restore the two-handed sword. His masterpiece "Wu Bei Zhi" included a "two-handed sword manual", which we can see today. The only ancient two-handed sword manual, but it is not complete. "Wu Bei Zhi" says: The ancient sword can be used in battle. The book records that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had thousands of swordsmen. It can be seen that the two-handed swords of the past were still very capable. It was a fight. After all, who had nothing to do with raising so much trash at that time.
"It's just that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not allow it to be spread to outsiders. In addition, the sword technique of opening and closing was not suitable for arranging troops. Therefore, as the military formation evolved, the two-handed sword gradually withdrew from the stage of history and became simply a guard of honor. The implements used. The method of using the two-handed sword has gradually become a showpiece that is not useful but useful."
"But whether it is ancient or modern, Huaxia is a concept, not a country with clear boundaries. In addition to the official two-handed sword, there are actually related records among the people. For example, there is a set of two-handed sword routines in Mantis Boxing. However, routines are just a way of training and cannot be used in actual combat. To put it bluntly, they are still just fancy. So no one knows exactly how to use them. Therefore, it is said that swordsmanship has been lost. It means that only sword manuals exist. , but no one can learn the meaning of the sword manual.
"However, this has to be mentioned in the field of two-handed swords, a mortal worthy of my admiration. His name is Yu Chenghui. In modern times, based on the records of ancient sword manuals and after referring to various sword techniques at home and abroad, he relied on his My astonishing martial arts talent recreated the once-lost "two-handed sword", so he was called the "two-handed sword master" by people at the time. In my opinion, with Yu Lao's achievements, he deserves to be a two-handed sword master. "
At this time, Lan Lan became interested and said: "Hey, old man, there is someone among mortals who has a higher martial arts talent than you, and you can actually respect him so much?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng smiled and said: "I have never said how high my martial arts talent is. There are many, many people with higher talent than me, and there are many around me. But when it comes to talent in terms of hard work, I am Confidence will not be lost to anyone.”
As he spoke, Ye Feng said to Chi Yueling: "What I just used was the two-handed sword technique created by Mr. Yu Chenghui. For today's two-handed sword technique, his two-handed sword technique is the foundation. It has achieved a kind of return to nature and the ultimate way." Jane's swordsmanship. It is like the root of a big tree called a two-handed sword. No matter how beautiful and majestic the tree is, without its roots, it will eventually rot and fall to the ground. Although the roots of the tree are naturally not as beautiful as those on the surface, even if the tree Even if it is broken, as long as the roots are still there, there will always be a day of resurrection. But if the roots are gone, the tree is really gone."
Ye Feng paused and said: "So, I will teach you my own two-handed swordsmanship that I have learned based on Yu Lao's swordsmanship, but the premise is that you must inherit and study Yu Lao's swordsmanship, and use Lao's swordsmanship as a basis. Swordsmanship as the foundation. That’s because I hope you can finally find your own path. I never want to see my students and disciples become inferior copies of me. Do you understand what I mean?”
Chi Yueling nodded and said, "Yes, teacher."
At this moment, Chi Yueling was truly convinced of her teacher, and she understood why the two senior sisters were so powerful.
It is said that famous teachers give birth to great disciples. A real famous teacher will always help his disciples to lay the foundation for the most basic entrance, and then they will not give them too many restrictions and guidance. Because famous teachers understand that their own path has been built on a high platform, and it is almost impossible to tear down and start over with innovation. But there is never only one road leading to the end of the avenue, and your own road may not be the closest to the avenue. When your disciples can take a different path from your own, perhaps the real road is at their feet.
