Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 876 Mountain Road
"The drachm, where is the drachm wallet?" He looked for it in the package. Shangluo remembered that there was still a little bit left, which was leftover from eating ice cream in Alexandria before. Because it has never been spent, it is still there.

"Strange, where's the wallet? I said, Apollonia, I suddenly remembered - didn't you move that big mountain of drachma back? Where's the money?"

【ah? It has already been spent. Didn’t you agree at that time? 】

"I didn't say anything at the time. But you spent a mountain of drachmas, what did you buy?"

[It's coming, it's coming, it's been shipped. 】

"Okay. Let me treat it as a trophy. You also have the right to dispose of the trophy. Of course you can decide what to buy. But since we want to use it together, I want to ask, is the thing you bought very practical?"

【Very practical! So practical! You must also find it very practical! 】

"Okay, but I don't have any drachms on hand." He looked at Wen Yuan, "Is there anything else? Lend me two coins? It was fine if I didn't give it. But I said I would give it, so I don't want to break my promise. to it.”

"Five yuan or ten yuan?"

"No, it's the 20 drachma coins Rome gave us when we went to Alexandria last time."

"Ah!" Wen Yuan remembered, "I always carry one with me as a souvenir. Remember to give me one back later."

"Absolutely." Shangluo waved his hand.

Taking the coin from Wen Yuan's hand - he knew he must return it.

Master Sa's words just now made him realize his current destructive power and the importance of his "being a human being". And friends become even more valuable.

He doesn't have many friends, but he still has a few. If it had been just last month, I would have thought that such thoughts were purely due to excessive self-awareness - because he was indeed not much better than Wen Yuan. If he threw away all the magic weapons, he might not be able to defeat Wen Yuan.

But after the thunderbolt entered his body, a dangerous thought sprouted in his heart: He held a hammer in his hand, and everyone looked like a nail. Even as a friend, he had the idea of ​​hammering him for a moment - he even wanted to hammer the gate of the Forbidden City when he saw it.

He just went to hammer the hood of the car, and he felt itchy inside. The car was not a person, so he felt less psychological pressure when hammering it.

【There is no way you can continue like this. I was a little scared just now.]

"Master Sa said that I can use sword practice to deal with this problem. But for the specific plan, they seem to be having a meeting with Dao Ancestor. How to practice specifically, the results will be announced after they finish the meeting - but I don't know the specific method yet. Come and do it.”

"Huh?" Wen Yuan, who was standing at the door, noticed something was wrong with Shangluo, "What, do you have a problem?"

"I do have a question - I want to ask you about swordsmanship."

"You ask me what I am good at. Come on, get in the car. If you don't understand anything, just ask me and I will tell you kindly."

"Oh~~ So that's it." In the driver's seat, Wen Yuan turned the steering wheel slowly. He is much more skilled in driving this car than Shangluo, and he must slow down and observe at every intersection. Even if there is no one around and there are no traffic rules at all, he will still put safety first.

Shangluo has always felt that although this guy seems to be blustering, he is actually much calmer than he looks on the outside. Among other friends, Lu Liang looks calm on the outside, but he can't hide his bluster on the inside. Shangluo still remembers how she wanted to compete when he saw her for the first time; as for Han Xingzhi, he looks blustery, It is also whirring on the inside, completely the same on the outside and inside.

"Well" Wen Yuan thought for a while: "This is the first time I have heard of your situation. In this case, I suggest you come to my place first when you are free and let's practice swordplay together. Sazu is very right, Kendo is really helpful in your situation, but to be precise, it’s not kendo.”

"what is that?"

"Let me give you an overview of the situation, from my perspective. After Xiao Han and I helped you put the dragon ball in place, we floated on the water with your dog - very soon after that, I clearly felt that Later, when the time you gave was inconsistent, I was immediately ejected. I analyzed that when we lost the Dragon Ball, he and I tended to indulge in Ambrosia, so we did not feel the passage of time. . When you are finally blown out and return to the outside, it is time for the Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth to be detonated. From my point of view, you have indeed gained extremely terrifying power, so terrifying that you are afraid of it?" "Yeah." Shangluo nodded, "That's true."

"You don't need to be afraid at all. I'm 181cm tall, and I might be a little taller in the future - there are many people taller than me in the world, and some are over two meters tall. So here's the question Yes, if you hold a child over 2 meters tall, he will definitely be scared. But have you ever heard of someone who is over meters tall?"

"It's interesting. The answer must be 'impossible'."

"Why? Because fear comes from the unknown. Children have no idea about the height of 2 meters, so if you hold him up to 2 meters, he will be afraid. But if a person is only 2 meters - he There can be no 'unknown' about one's own body perception, so there can be no fear."

He concluded:
"You will be afraid that you will not be able to control your own power, and you will be afraid of being alienated by your own power into something you don't want. This only means one thing: you have not fully mastered this power. In this regard, my suggestion is to practice sword practice . But it is not the practice of kendo with swords, but the 'Shan Dao' of the five arts of Taoism - mountain, medicine, fortune telling, and divination."

"What is that? I remember it was the knowledge of hiding and raising swords?"

"You can use it to hide and raise swords, but its function is far more than just raising swords. The so-called mountain way is just like the benevolence department of the Faculty of Humanity and the mathematics and physics department of the science department. It is the backbone of the entire academic department. The so-called mountain way is learned It’s the Qi training of Qi practitioners. Mountain Tao teaches you how to practice—at this time, you should think about it a little more.”

[Hey, this question also asked me. What is spiritual practice? 】

Shangluo also threw the question back——

"So, what is practice?"

"The so-called practice is essentially the study of 'how to produce qualitative changes through quantitative changes'; the study of 'how ordinary things lead to higher levels through their own changes'. The so-called practice is to use elixirs, knowledge, and mystical scriptures , martial arts, to accumulate quantitative change, and finally understand the process of qualitative change - I personally think that your problem now is that you don't know where the power of "Heavenly Tribulation" comes from. So, come and cultivate your qi, practice your qi, and practice. There are many methods, and entering the Tao with a sword is a very good way.”

"Master Wen!" Shangluo grabbed his arm.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing! I'm driving!"

"Your words woke me up! How about practicing sword practice with me? No, how about teaching me how to practice sword practice? Although we have practiced against each other before, it will definitely feel completely different when we practice again now."

"Hey, you're almost at the golden elixir stage. It's wrong to call me a master when you're in the qi training stage."

"There is a certain order of learning, and there is a specialization in the arts. A teacher does not have to be better than a disciple. Once I learn something from you, I will treat you as my master."

"Why do I feel like Confucius suddenly started to reflect on himself after seeing two children arguing about the sun? Let's argue about the sun. If my little effort can help you, it will be considered a profit."

(Buzz————)
There was a long knock on the chime.

Master Sa Tian sent a message: "Taozu and we have heard it. Very good, very good. You understand it yourself and it is much better than what we teach you. That boy, what is your name?"

"Wen Yuan!" Wen Yuan suddenly sat up straight.

"It's just you. Teaching and learning are mutually beneficial. It will be helpful for both of you to practice against Shangluo. We will continue to have a meeting to study. Before the meeting is over, you two can go and understand it yourself - and what's your name, kid? ?”

"My name is Wen Yuan! My name is Wen Yuan! Can I train him? Can I really train him?"

"Boy, come to the gate of Yuxi Palace. If you want to spar with Shangluo, you have to hold this sword to practice with him. If you have any questions about the sword, just ask about that sword."

He then said to Shangluo: "Shangluo, Dao Lord and we are still discussing which heavenly sword should be given to you for practice. But for practice, just use [this one] for the time being. You go to the emperor to get it, and then confront him Practice. Both are teaching tools, be careful not to break them.”
