Chapter 112

Zhang Xiaohua felt a burst of warmth when he heard the faint tone and the ordinary words. Although it was a normal concern, there was a saying, "Don't be afraid of not knowing the goods, be afraid of comparing the goods." He Tianshu and the others' daily care for Zhang Xiaohua was immediately different from the grievances Zhang Xiaohua suffered in the Qingyi and Little Hat Room.

It was no wonder that Zhang Xiaohua was grateful.

After reminding Zhang Xiaohua, He Tianshu and the others hurriedly left. The daily cultivation of the herbal field was still very easy to handle. In fact, it didn't matter if Zhang Xiaohua wasn't there. However, those seeds that had never sprouted were still a big mountain in He Tianshu's heart. He couldn't rest until he removed them.

Zhang Xiaohua saw that they had left and hurried back to the house. Although the food in the house was simple, Zhang Xiaohua still ate it with relish. He then went out to be a monk and hit his own clock.

During the lunch break, Zhang Xiaohua stayed in his house. He took a branch and carefully simulated the feeling that he found in the morning. Sure enough, when his speed reached a certain level, the warm current immediately appeared. Zhang Xiaohua had a realization in his heart. Although the reason for the warm current's appearance was still unclear, one thing was certain. That was, the changes of this sword move should be performed at this speed. It was the best!

Since he had this understanding, Zhang Xiaohua continued to perform the changes of this sword move at this speed. The warm current also continued to appear. Zhang Xiaohua then realized that from the beginning of his sword move changes, the warm current came out from a certain place on his left shoulder. As the sword move changes were performed, the warm current flowed along his shoulder to his palm. It didn't disappear until the sword move changes were performed and the warm current flowed to the branch in his left hand.

After practicing for an entire afternoon, Zhang Xiaohua finally memorized the sword move changes with his left hand. The speed of the sword move had also stabilized. When he reached the point where he could casually perform a sword move change, the warm current would appear. Only then did he stop.

The practice at night was out of Zhang Xiaohua's expectations. Under Elder Yu's supervision, Zhang Xiaohua performed the sword move with his right hand again. He originally thought that he wouldn't be able to succeed like before. However, perhaps it was because he had been practicing with his left hand, but Zhang Xiaohua's right hand was also fixed at the same speed. Unexpectedly, he was able to perform the sword move successfully. Even though it was just a beginner and there were many areas that could be improved, Zhang Xiaohua's right hand had just recovered from its injury. It should have something to do with the inflexibility of his fingers.

Elder Yu was also very surprised. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua practicing in the morning, he thought that with his aptitude, he would need a few more days of practice before he could master the sword move changes. However, it seemed like he had underestimated him. Elder Yu was very happy in his heart. He let Zhang Xiaohua practice again. When he saw that he had really mastered it, he said, "Zhang Xiaohua, I didn't think that you would be able to master it so quickly. This is a bit out of my expectations. However, you don't have to be proud. I only practiced this move for half a day. My aptitude is very ordinary in the jianghu. If it was someone else with talent and intelligence, they would probably be able to master it after watching it twice."

Zhang Xiaohua naturally didn't feel any sense of pride. He immediately said, "Elder Yu, don't worry. I know my own aptitude. This is the result of practicing many times."

Elder Yu was very satisfied. "Actually, there are times when a person's strength is limited. You don't have to worry too much about it. Just do your best.

You must have gone through a lot of hardships to be able to learn the first move. I also know that.

Since you've already learned the first move, I'll teach you the second one in a while. However, you shouldn't exhaust your injured bones at this stage. As the saying goes, more haste, less speed. You must remember this. "

Zhang Xiaohua was very happy when he heard that he could learn the second move. He didn't pay too much attention to Elder Yu's words.

Actually, Elder Yu had wanted to teach Zhang Xiaohua the first move in the morning. However, he was very happy when he saw that Zhang Xiaohua had learned the first move. He took advantage of the moonlight and practiced the second move in the forest. When Zhang Xiaohua roughly looked through it, he explained it in detail. When he saw that Zhang Xiaohua's brows had relaxed, he knew that she had understood it. Only then did he slowly practice it again and let Zhang Xiaohua look at it carefully again.

Although there were nineteen variations to this sword move, they were all based on this sword move. The first variation was the hardest to learn. After learning the first variation, the other variations would all be very similar. Naturally, it would be very easy to learn the second variation. Therefore, Elder Yu spent much less time teaching the second variation than the first variation.

It was a pity that Elder Yu had overestimated Zhang Xiaohua's comprehension ability. Although Zhang Xiaohua should know how to practice it, or perhaps he had already learned it in his heart, the branch in his hands couldn't move according to Elder Yu's requirements no matter what.

Under Elder Yu's tightly furrowed brows, Zhang Xiaohua helplessly put down the branch. After all, his right hand was starting to hurt again. He couldn't neglect the fundamentals and focus on trifles. Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's dejection, Elder Yu helplessly patted him on the shoulder. "It's fine. You should think about it more in your heart. This isn't the first time you've done this. Take a rest and continue practicing tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Zhang Xiaohua felt a little upset when he saw Elder Yu leave. No normal person liked to be looked down upon. Even if he knew that his aptitude wasn't good, he couldn't accept being looked down upon by others again and again. Thus, he picked up the branch again. However, this time, he had learned his lesson. He didn't use his right hand to practice it, but his left hand first. He first simulated the changes in his left hand in his mind before slowly moving his left hand. After repeating this a few times, he finally memorized the changes and found the feeling of noon. He followed the speed of the first move and as expected, the warm current appeared again, just like noon.

Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed. He knew that he had found the right path. Thus, he used the moonlight to practice.

When he learned the second move, he practiced the first one again. He repeated this process repeatedly. It was as if Elder Yu was teaching him to use his left hand.

The next day, Zhang Xiaohua still practiced a set of one hundred incomplete fist moves and practiced the two sword moves while waiting for Elder Yu to arrive. However, after waiting for a while and seeing that no one was coming, Zhang Xiaohua didn't wait any longer.

Zhang Xiaohua's right hand had recovered after a long rest and was no longer sore. He picked up the branch again and repeated the sword moves in his mind as he practiced the second move at a certain speed. It was strange. He couldn't complete the move no matter what last night, but after a long rest, he was able to perform it this morning. Although it wasn't as smooth as moving clouds and flowing water, he still managed to learn it.

Zhang Xiaohua seemed to have realized that to learn the second move, he had to use his left arm first. He had to learn it before he could use his right hand.

This was really strange. Could it be that his right hand was injured?

When Elder Yu checked on Zhang Xiaohua's progress at night, he also found it very strange. He couldn't help but blush. It was said that one should teach according to the student's aptitude. It seemed that his teaching method was wrong. Perhaps he really wasn't suitable for teaching. Why couldn't he explain such a simple change clearly?

He still had to let Zhang Xiaohua go back and think about it carefully. Only then would he be able to learn it.

Thus, he said a little embarrassedly, "Zhang Xiaohua, this … is my teaching not good?"

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. "No, Elder Yu. You taught me very well."

Elder Yu said, "Ai, don't say anymore. I've taught a few disciples in the past, but they couldn't learn well and didn't make any name for themselves in the martial arts world.

Today, I'll teach you a few sword moves, but you still can't understand them. "

Zhang Xiaohua was even more confused. He could only say, "Elder Yu, I'm very grateful that you're the only one teaching me sword moves. If I can't learn it, it's because my aptitude isn't good enough. I remember telling my second brother that if others can learn it once, I'll practice it ten times, twenty times, a hundred times until I learn it."

When Elder Yu heard this, he agreed in his heart. "You're right. Although there's no lack of talented people in the martial arts world, they're still very rare. People like you and I are just ordinary people. Naturally, we have to put in more effort than others in order to achieve good results. Zhang Xiaohua, you've done very well."

After that, Elder Yu didn't consider whether it was his teaching method or Zhang Xiaohua's comprehension. Just like a few days ago, he carefully explained the sword moves and slowly demonstrated them. When Zhang Xiaohua felt that she understood, he turned around and left, leaving Zhang Xiaohua alone to practice. He still didn't appear the next morning, letting Zhang Xiaohua experience it herself. He only appeared the next night to check on her learning progress.

In this way, Zhang Xiaohua learned one move a day until she learned the sixteenth move.

However, there was a problem with the seventeenth move.

After Elder Yu taught her, Zhang Xiaohua memorized it in her heart. She could use her left hand, but the warm current didn't appear. Zhang Xiaohua thought that there was a problem with her speed. She tried again and again, but the warm current still didn't appear. Then, Zhang Xiaohua tried to use her right hand, but it just didn't work. There were always some details that she couldn't handle.

Zhang Xiaohua practiced alone for another two days, but she still couldn't learn the seventeenth move. Elder Yu thought about it and concluded that it was because her right hand hadn't fully recovered and wasn't as nimble as a normal person. Thus, he began to teach her the eighteenth and nineteenth moves.

As Elder Yu expected, Zhang Xiaohua still couldn't learn the last two moves. After a few days, Elder Yu called Zhang Xiaohua to the forest and said, "Zhang Xiaohua, I've already taught you the nineteen moves.

Actually, I'm already very satisfied that you can learn sixteen moves. To be honest, I thought that you could learn half of them, but you've already greatly exceeded my expectations. "

Zhang Xiaohua felt a little sour in her heart when she heard Elder Yu's words. However, the situation was as such and she couldn't refute it at all.

Elder Yu continued, "You should have already memorized the remaining three moves. When your right hand fully recovers, you can continue to practice.

Actually, the reason why I'm teaching you this move is to save your life. If you don't provoke someone too powerful, I believe that these sixteen moves should be able to save your life.

Also, what you've learned now is only the tip of the iceberg and doesn't have much power. You still have to memorize the sword technique diligently. When you learn inner strength one day, you'll be able to use it with the sword technique to display the true power of this sword technique. "

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but ask, "Then what is its true power like?"

Elder Yu smiled and said, "Look."

As he spoke, he used all his strength to stab the big tree in front of him. The sharp edge of the sword pierced three centimeters into the tree. Then, Elder Yu circulated his qi and used a sword move to stab the tree. With a piercing sound, the long sword pierced deeply into the tree as if it was going to pierce through it.

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. The difference was too big.

Elder Yu saw Zhang Xiaohua's expression and naturally knew what she was thinking. He said, "See, Zhang Xiaohua? If you don't learn inner strength, you're like a frog at the bottom of a well. You'll always be in a small circle and will never be able to understand the power of inner strength.

Even if you learn the best sword technique in the world, the exquisite sword moves are still just a form. Without the soul of inner strength, you can never be considered a first-rate expert. "

Looking at Zhang Xiaohua's disappointed expression, he said, "I know you want to learn inner strength, but I can't teach it to you. I hope that you'll have the chance to learn a profound inner strength cultivation method in the future.

Alright, this is all I can teach you. Practice well and hope that this sword move can help you in the future. "

With that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but call out, "Elder Yu."

Elder Yu turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Xiaohua opened his mouth and said after a while, "Thank you, Elder Yu."

Elder Yu smiled and said, "No need, Zhang Xiaohua. Practice well and I hope you'll succeed."

With that, he floated away.

Looking at Elder Yu's one-armed figure, Zhang Xiaohua felt extremely grateful. He wasn't related to Elder Yu in any way, and they didn't see each other often in the past. Yet, he had received such a huge favor from Elder Yu, and he had even imparted a sword technique to him. Although Elder Yu didn't mind it, how could he not take it seriously?

Actually, Zhang Xiaohua wanted to tell Elder Yu about the sword in her left hand, but she didn't know where to start.

Most of the sixteen transformations on her left hand had changed beyond recognition. If she told Elder Yu now, would she let him know that she wasn't a good-for-nothing?

If she could comprehend the side path, could she also use a sword with her left hand?

However, when she thought about the might of Elder Yu's inner strength sword move, she didn't want to say it. What was her little bit of cleverness? She shouldn't show it off.

However, Zhang Xiaohua really wanted to ask Elder Yu about the warm current.

After standing for a while, Elder Yu was already far away. Only then did Zhang Xiaohua gather her thoughts and pick up the branch to practice in the forest. After practicing the transformations of the sword move, she felt bored and her right hand was sore, so she switched to her left hand. When she practiced the sword move with her left hand, it was different. The warm current flowed through her left arm, making it feel very comfortable. After the 61 transformations of the sword move had been mutated by Zhang Xiaohua, she could actually link them together. From the first to the sixteenth transformations, in addition to the changes in her footwork, it was really like a set of sword moves. Practicing to her heart's content, she started practicing non-stop and entered a very peaceful state. She only wanted to wave the sword in her left hand around, as though she was born for the sword. She practiced from the first to the sixteenth transformations, then continued to practice the first transformations. After practicing for a long time, Zhang Xiaohua felt that there was a stuffy feeling in her chest. She wanted to spit it out, but she couldn't find a way to vent it. As the sword moved, she seemed to have found a target. Zhang Xiaohua opened her mouth and let out a long sigh of relief. Then, she followed the sword move and stabbed forward with the branch in her left hand. The warm current in her left arm naturally flowed along with it. Just as the branch was about to hit the tree in front of her, she heard a muffled sound and the branch actually pierced into the trunk. Then, she broke into pieces and fell to the ground.

Only then did Zhang Xiaohua wake up from her dream. She stared blankly at the branch in her hand and then at the branch in front of her. She couldn't believe that she had done this.

If Elder Yu had used his strength to push the sword three inches into the tree trunk, Zhang Xiaohua felt that if she used her strength, she might be able to push the sword five inches into the tree trunk. However, it was impossible for Zhang Xiaohua to do it like how Elder Yu had used his internal energy. Furthermore, it was impossible for Zhang Xiaohua to do it. Was she considered an expert?

However, when she walked forward and used her thumb and index finger to pinch the branch, she easily 'pulled' it out without using much strength. Only then did she see that there was a hole in the tree trunk that was neither deep nor shallow. It was just a hole. Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but laugh at herself. She looked at herself as a poor person who had just received a few dozen taels of silver. She thought that she knew that she was the richest person in the world, but she didn't know that this amount of silver was a joke in the eyes of the real rich. She thought that her martial arts were so good that she could push the branch into the tree trunk, but now, it seemed that it was just a small hole.

Shaking her head, Zhang Xiaohua casually threw away the branch in her hand.

Feeling that the sky was getting dark, she picked up the lantern and slowly walked back into the house.

Only that small hole was left in the tree trunk.

The pitiful Zhang Xiaohua was regretting his arrogance, but he didn't know that he had really underestimated himself this time.

Even if it was Elder Yu, he wouldn't dare to say that he could push the branch into the tree trunk and leave a hole. If Elder Yu saw Zhang Xiaohua's' sword ', his eyes would definitely pop out. It was a pity that Zhang Xiaohua only saw the sharpness of the sword. Although he knew that the' blunt 'part of the branch wouldn't be easy to push into the tree trunk, his usual attitude confirmed that he had made a mistake in his judgment. Sigh, the details determine success or failure.

Zhang Xiaohua seemed to still be very inexperienced. He still had a long way to go.

However, Zhang Xiaohua, who was walking on the road, didn't have this awareness. He had long abandoned the joy from before and was muttering in his heart. I've already learned this sword technique from Elder Yu, so when should I go to Elder Yu to get the fist manual?
