Dreaming for 10,000 years

Chapter 10 It's hard for him

Martial arts are not suitable for everyone.

Not everyone who possesses martial arts skills can become a master.

What is powerful is the person, never the martial arts.

The gap between people may be greater than the gap between people and dogs.

Just like now, Shi Fei didn't quite understand what the old man said about "yin and yang", "all things", "meridians", etc.

I couldn't say I didn't understand, I just expressed my understanding to the old man, and the old man became angry and turned hostile.

This left Shi Fei with a puzzled look on his face.

Shi Fei said: "Did I say something wrong?"

The old man remained silent. If he paid any attention to Shi Fei again, he would be a bastard.

Since the old man didn't say anything, Shi Fei could only comprehend the skills taught by the old man on his own.

But how can he, a person in a dream, understand the complicated martial arts?

Shi Fei gained nothing during the whole day, and the old man said nothing.

Shi Fei looked at the glowing cave entrance. He was unable to practice the martial arts taught by the old man, so he naturally could not get out of here. He could only wait.

Wait until someone else comes to rescue him.

What if no one comes to rescue him?

Will he become like the old man, full of hope, slowly grow old, and finally be trapped here to death?

It's really a trapped dog hole.

Shi Fei sighed.

He had a feeling of helplessness.

How to do?
One day, two days, three days, four days... Every day Shi Fei sat down in the stone cave and made a mark. Before he knew it, more than ten days had passed.

The package that slid down from the cave contained only dry food and water, but no note.

What happened to Qingqing?
Was the previous note really Qingqing?
I don’t know, I don’t dare to think…

At the bottom of the dark cave, in a real dream, with so many chaotic thoughts, Shi Fei didn't know what was making him wait.

He began to try to practice martial arts, and even though he couldn't get started, he persisted.

You can't just do nothing!

The old man in the shadows suddenly said, "Boy, you can't do this!"

"why?"

The old man smiled and said, "Do you know that warriors are also divided into different levels?"

After observing Shi Fei for more than ten days, he felt that he had seen through Shi Fei.

Shi Fei said: "I don't know."

"The lowest kind are rotten wood like you. Even if I teach you a peerless skill, you won't be able to practice it!" the old man said sarcastically.

"..."

"The second are ordinary warriors who practice martial arts step by step, but they can't achieve high level or low level!" said the old man meaningfully.

In his mind, even Shi Fei's entry-level martial arts were only at this level.

"Then there are the masters. They have their own understanding of the martial arts taught by their predecessors, and will adjust the martial arts to suit themselves better!"

"Make your martial arts more in line with your own character and unleash its greatest power!"

"Finally..." the old man said seriously, "Finally, there is the ultimate master!"

Shi Fei said: "Top master?"

"A top master thinks of things that ordinary people dare not think of, does things that ordinary people dare not do, and breaks the rules!" said the old man with a big laugh.

From his laughter, it seemed that he had indeed been a top master!
Shi Fei was stunned.

Think about things that ordinary people dare not think about, and do things that ordinary people dare not do?
In his dream, what else was there that he dared not think about or do?
Yes! Fly out from here!

People cannot fly, not even in dreams.

But as long as you have superb martial arts skills, you can fly out!

Since he couldn't understand the martial arts taught by the old man, why couldn't he practice martial arts according to his own understanding?
In his dream, is there anything he dare not try?
I can't understand what others are saying about martial arts, so let me practice martial arts in my own way!
This is a dream!

And I want to control my own dream! Following his thoughts, those concepts that were originally difficult to understand suddenly became clear. The obstacles that originally prevented him from practicing martial arts were kicked away by him.

A trace of true energy appeared in his body, which brought about a breeze in the stone cave.

"Huh?" The old man looked at Shi Fei in surprise.

The wind appeared in the cave, gently surrounding Shi Fei, like the caress of a lover. Shi Fei sat cross-legged in the cave, with a trace of internal force running through his body.

An hour later, Shi Fei suddenly jumped up to a height of ten feet!

His eyes sparkled with brilliance, and he said to the old man, "Thank you for the martial arts you taught me and your guidance. I have finally understood!"

"?"

The old man didn't know what Shi Fei had realized, nor did he know why Shi Fei's martial arts had improved by so much!
He only saw Shi Fei continuing to practice the martial arts he taught him.

It took him a lot of effort to recognize the martial arts that Shi Fei practiced. One of them was similar to the "Heaven-Destroying and Earth-Exterminating Soul-Searching Hand" he taught.

"The Great Soul-Searching Hand of Heaven and Earth Destruction" can steal the vitality and essence of all things. The person who is hit will have a pale face as white as paper and a withered body. Once it is activated, no one can stop it.

Why is this kid's training so weird?

The old man looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said, "Boy, it seems that you are practicing it wrong."

“Seems” means “is”.

Shi Fei said: "That's right."

The old man said: "Wrong!"

Shi Fei said: "Just because I can practice it means I can't make mistakes!"

The old man said: "If you practice like this, you might go insane one day and die suddenly!"

Shi Fei said, "No! I feel great!"

It was indeed as Shi Fei said. Shi Fei felt the true energy flowing in his body, as if it was being generated continuously, making his perception expanded and his body more sensitive!
The old man opened his hands to grab Shi Fei, but he raised his hands and then put them down again.

He said to Shi Fei: "Come here, I'll take your pulse!"

There is no harm in taking the pulse, so Shi Fei came to the old man and handed his left hand to him.

The old man's skinny fingers grasped Shi Fei's left hand and placed them on the pulse at his wrist.

"How is it? I said, are you okay?" Shi Fei looked at the old man with a frown.

The old man asked in confusion: "How did your meridians become unblocked?"

Shi Fei asked in bewilderment: "What are meridians?"

For a person in a dream, it is too difficult to understand the meridians and acupoints.

"..."

The old man asked again: "Why is your circulation so strange?"

Shi Fei asked again: "What is the Zhoutian cycle?"

The circulation of true Qi in the body around the Ren and Du meridians is called the Zhoutian circulation.

The old man looked at Shi Fei and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

He clearly remembered that when Shi Fei first came down, he was just an ordinary little fat boy.

How come you become a stranger in the blink of an eye?
Is he hiding his incompetence?
Or are there other reasons?

He really was... completely puzzled!
"It shouldn't...it shouldn't..." he muttered to himself.

He had never encountered such a strange situation in his life.

Shi Fei laughed instead and said, "Senior, didn't you just say that? Top masters think of things that ordinary people dare not think of, and do things that ordinary people dare not do, right?"

The old man said nothing.

Is this what you mean: think about things that ordinary people dare not think about, and do things that ordinary people dare not do?

Could it be that the person in front of me is a martial arts genius?

is it?

He needs to observe further.

So, he said, "Boy, I will teach you another set of sword techniques!"

Since his internal strength cannot be seen, let him practice his swordsmanship.

Compared to internal strength, he is better at swordsmanship!
