"In the beginning, there were no things, everything was mixed into one, and there was no light or dark. It seemed like a void with nothing. It had no shape or name, but it had a unified and unchanging thing that could adapt to all kinds of things.
Necessity. Birds will fly if they get it, fish will swim if they get it, everything will have life if they get it, and whatever they get will succeed."
"People use it, but they don't know its name. They don't see its form. This is the Tao. All things use it, but it does not decrease. It returns to it, but it does not increase. Whoever obtains the Tao will
Can make the world obey and order the world!"
"That's so good! So right!"
Liu Chang couldn't help but praise him and wanted to jump up and applaud the teacher.
Looking at his flattering little face, several princes were a little confused. Why was this prince so respectful to Gai Gong today?
Liu Chang was uncharacteristically no longer sleeping or in a daze. He listened to the teacher's class attentively and even took the initiative to answer questions several times. The last time he looked like this, he snatched away Ruyi's horse.
Because of this, the brothers are all wary and must not be deceived by this guy. Who knows what kind of evil is brewing in this kid's heart?
Sure enough, just after class, Liu Chang sat next to Ruyi with a well-behaved look on his face.
"Brother~~"
"No borrowing."
"I don't want to lend you anything... If my brother is in trouble, please help me."
"No help."
"My lord, as a prince, how can you be so ruthless?"
"It's so heartless."
Liu Ruyi couldn't help but Liu Chang looked at Liu Heng and Liu Hui, thought for a moment, then shook his head without speaking.
Seeing this scene, Liu Ruyi was furious, "If anything happens, my lord, if nothing happens, what if you try to trick other brothers even once? Just keep an eye on me??"
Gai Gong had to study in the morning and taught swordsmanship only in the evening. The rest of the time, Liu Chang was idle and bored. He really needed someone who could practice swordsmanship with him. He originally wanted Ruyi to practice with him.
, but he didn't want to. As for Fourth Brother and Liu Hui, forget it, they were very kind to him, what if he hurt them?
Liu Chang frowned and began to think, who else could he dislike who could practice swordsmanship with him?
Ruyi, Mrs. Qi, Fan Qing, father, Mrs. Cao, Fan and his wife, from Fanshi, Zhou Shengzhi, Zhou Yafu, Zhou Jian.... Well, Ruyi... Ruyi...
Suddenly, Liu Chang slapped his thigh suddenly, yes, how could he forget about him?
"Son."
Luan Bu stood respectfully in front of Liu Chang. This was the first time Liu Chang called him into the palace. After all, Empress Lu was watching over him in the palace, so there was no need for him, a layperson, to look after him.
Liu Chang held the wooden stick in his hand and responded respectfully, "That's it. Today, according to the emperor's order, I have been learning swordsmanship...but I have no one to practice with me."
Luan Bu nodded and said: "Sword is a gentleman's art and must be learned."
"I am willing to practice swordsmanship with you!"
Liu Chang found an open space, and the two confronted each other. Liu Chang only attacked and Luan Bu only defended.
"kill!"
Liu Chang let out a loud roar, jumped forward a few steps, imitated Gai Gong, quickly drew his sword, and stabbed Luan Bu in the abdomen. Luan Bu sidestepped to avoid it, holding wooden swords in both hands, and swung directly at
He grabbed Liu Chang's neck, and the wooden sword stopped at Liu Chang's neck.
Liu Chang looked at him with some dissatisfaction, "Didn't you agree to only defend and not attack?"
"Ahem, please forgive me, sir. It's just that the posture you held just now is really suitable for chopping... I can't help myself..."
"Well...you must never practice with me with a real sword in the future..."
Liu Chang originally thought that he could pinch the soft persimmon, but he did not expect that Luan Bu, who looked weak, was not a softie. This guy's swordsmanship was completely opposite to Gai Gong's. He opened and closed, while Gai Gong's swordsmanship was stabbing.
Directly stabbing between the eyebrows, heart, and eyes, while Luan Bu's sword always cuts at the neck... Are you a sacrificer or an executioner?
Liu Chang finally discovered that the so-called literati in this era are all a bunch of reckless men who will either poke you in the eyes or cut off your head. In other words, there are no literati in this era at all. Everyone can reason when they pick up the book and put it down.
You can also be reasonable. Although the methods are different, the purpose is to make sense.
Liu Chang's training was very difficult. He was no match for Luan Bu. No matter how despicable methods he used, he could not encounter him even once.
However, Luan Bu was not relaxed either. He frowned and fought off Liu Chang's attacks several times. When Liu Chang was panting and resting, he finally spoke.
"Where did the young master learn swordsmanship?"
"I learned from an expert, he is much better than you!"
"Sir, the swordsmanship you have learned is too ruthless... It strikes quickly. Every time, it goes straight to the vital point. It wants to take someone's life. It spares no trace and attacks with all its strength. This is the sword of a city ranger, not a human being.
The sword of a gentleman like me..."
"You still have the nerve to say that this swordsmanship is ruthless? If you chop off people's heads, you are a gentleman's sword, right?"
"Swordsmanship is swordsmanship! You can't say it's vicious or not!"
Liu Chang retorted loudly.
Luan Bu was speechless immediately. The young master seemed to be unruly, but every time, he could say something very reasonable that no one could refute. He was really smart.
In the evening, when Liu Chang was practicing with Gai Gong, Gai Gong just took one look at it and asked, "Have you tried your swordsmanship with others?"
“You can also see this??”
"You always tilt your body inadvertently to avoid slashing, but I have never used slashing... Your opponent seems to like slashing very much?"
Liu Chang immediately said: "Yes! Master! I found someone to spar with me. That person looked down on my swordsmanship. He said that my swordsmanship was learned by an incompetent ranger and was completely useless. He also said that he
Your sword is a gentleman's sword, but my sword is immoral, unkind, and extremely despicable..."
Gai Gong's face was dark, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "A gentleman's sword, right? Okay, come here, I'll teach you two moves, and you can go see him to spar tomorrow..."
"Hehehe, okay."
...
Liu Chang stared at Luan Bu in front of him, took a big step, and stabbed his abdomen with the sword in his hand. Luan Bu ducked sideways again, and the wooden sword swung towards Liu Chang's neck. When the blow missed,
Liu Chang knelt down and pushed the wooden sword in his hand towards Luan Bu! Luan Bu's sword missed the air, and the wooden sword in Liu Chang's hand flew out and hit Luan Bu directly in the crotch.
Luan Bu snorted, dropped the wooden sword, covered his crotch with both hands, his face changed from gloomy to bright, his whole body was trembling slightly, and he remained silent for a long time.
"Sir...Sir...what kind of swordsmanship is this?"
"Master said that this is the villain's sword, specially used to deal with gentlemen."
"Mr.. Young Master... your old... teacher... he is not kind."
Liu Chang practiced swordsmanship every day, and his life was very fulfilling. Unfortunately, his clothes were torn in several pieces, and he was finally beaten. However, Empress Lu did not object to him practicing swordsmanship, and learned that he officially followed Gai.
When Gong practiced swordsmanship, Empress Lu personally sent someone to deliver dried meat to Gong Gai as a gift to him as a disciple. She also told him many times: "This son is naughty and naughty. If you are rude to me, please keep me safe."
Liu Chang's sword practice was also known to several other princes, but when they learned that Liu Chang was practicing sword practice with Gai Gong, they only thought it was incredible. What kind of swordsmanship could Gai Gong know? Why not learn from the real swordsman?
What about people who know swordsmanship?
Ruyi said to Liu Chang triumphantly: "If you really can't find anyone to practice swordsmanship with you, you can learn from me. Why bother with someone like Gai Gong?"
Liu Chang sneered, "How about you practice with Gai Gong?"
"My master is Gai Gong, how can I point my sword at him?"
"Then let's practice?"
"You are my brother, how can I point a sword at you?"
"Oh!"
After practicing with Gai Gong for more than half a month, Liu Chang finally decided to go out and fight those brats. He was ready. First he had a big meal, and then he took his wooden sword and followed Shang Fang.
The man went out in the name of seeing new farm tools. After seeing off Luan Bu on the way, Liu Chang finally found those guys outside the palace gate.
At this moment, their number has become larger.
These people also brought wooden sticks. They probably suffered the loss of being empty-handed last time. This time, although there was only Liu Chang in front of them, they were still very cautious and looked around from time to time, fearing that a group of people would appear from nowhere.
Beat them up.
"Stop looking, it's just me."
"How dare you come to die alone?"
"Death?"
Liu Chang sneered, slowly took off the wooden stick, and said seriously: "I am different from you. I have traveled around the world since I was a child and have studied with many people. In Qi State, I once practiced swordsmanship with an expert hermit.
After studying for six or seven years, I encountered bandits outside the city. In that battle, I killed more than thirty bandits... Some traitors tempted the Marquis of Huaiyin to rebel. Among the three hundred soldiers and I, I killed the other party's head.
....I didn’t want to embarrass you, but today, you bullied me too much, so I won’t be polite..."
Liu Chang pointed his wooden sword at them, his expression even more solemn.
"You don't even have a real sword, how dare you brag like this?"
"The first year I learned swordsmanship, I used a sharp sword, the next year I used a soft sword, and the next year I used a soft sword. Anything can be used as a sword... This is the true meaning of swordsmanship."
"Are you coming one by one or together?"
Everyone looked at Liu Chang's serious look and looked at each other in confusion. Zhou Shengzhi had cold sweat on his forehead. He looked at the people around him and found that everyone had panic on their faces and kept retreating.
"Since you don't want to come, then I will go and kill you!!!"
Liu Chang let out a loud roar and rushed forward.
"Mother!! Help!!!"
"Wow!!!"
Everyone cried loudly, dropped their weapons and started running wildly. They fled in all directions without looking back.
"Hey! Don't run away!! I haven't fought with you yet!! Hey!!"
