Chapter 52: Training and Fighting, Square Knife
"Training methods and fighting methods?" Lu Qing was surprised.
"That's right." said the old doctor.
"The so-called training method is also called the nourishing method. As the name suggests, it is a method to nourish the body, temper the flesh, and enhance one's physical strength."
"The health-preserving boxing I'm teaching you is actually a training boxing technique that I created myself to strengthen the body."
"As for the fighting method..."
The old doctor organized his words before continuing.
"Martial artists who practice martial arts have vigorous blood and energy, are full of energy, and have strong personalities. It is inevitable that they will be competitive."
"So in order to win during the long struggle, warriors gradually created many highly offensive techniques, or fighting methods."
"Fighting methods are also called killing methods. Most of these martial arts techniques are not aimed at nourishing the body or tempering the flesh. They are more about how to burst out the strongest destructive power and lethality in the shortest time and at the lowest cost to kill the enemy."
"Therefore, in terms of lethality, fighting martial arts are much stronger than training martial arts."
"The method of nurturing and the method of killing..." Lu Qing pondered over these two words carefully.
But from these two titles, he could feel the injustice on the road of martial arts. It was probably a cruel road that could decide life and death at any time.
"Master, you said that the health-preserving boxing is a training method, then what is the fighting style of our lineage?" Lu Qing couldn't help but ask.
"We don't have a fighting style in this lineage."
The old doctor's next words stunned Lu Qing.
"You don't have to make such an expression." The old doctor said with a smile, "It's no wonder that Master is not good at fighting with others and can't come up with a powerful fighting style."
Lu Qing then remembered that his master was a doctor, and a very kind-hearted one who did not like fighting.
His lack of competitive spirit might be the reason why he hasn't come up with any powerful fighting style.
"However, although Master is not good at fighting, I do have some good fighting skills. Do you want to learn them?"
"Huh?" Lu Qing was stunned again, "Master, didn't you just say that our lineage doesn't have an outstanding fighting style?"
"We, in this lineage, do not have any outstanding fighting style," said the old doctor.
"Your ancestor, who is also my master, was just an ordinary wandering doctor in the past. He knew a few ordinary self-defense kung fu."
"Later, your master, I had some adventures when I was young, and fortunately, I created the Yang Shen Quan technique."
"So I'm not lying to you when I say that our lineage doesn't have an outstanding fighting style."
Lu Qing: "Then Master, you just said..."
"Most of the fighting techniques and martial arts I have are what I learned when I was traveling in the past. Some were given to me by some chivalrous knights as medical supplies when I treated them. Some were bought in the markets of some big cities. Some were found by chance when I was collecting herbs in the mountains."
The old doctor's simple words made Lu Qing understand the master's extraordinary experience.
but……
"Master, can this technique be bought directly?" Lu Qing felt a little unbelievable.
In his impression, martial arts secret manuals should be the most precious things for martial artists. Who would take them out to sell?
"Haha, this world is so big and full of wonders. When you have the opportunity to go out in the future, you will find out that in this world, not only are there people who sell martial arts secrets, there are even people who publicly engrave what they have learned throughout their lives for people all over the world to learn." The old doctor laughed.
"Who is so generous?" Lu Qing asked in surprise.
"He is a great warrior that all warriors in the world admire and admire."
The old doctor didn't know what he was thinking about. He looked fascinated and remained silent for a while.
After a long while, he came back to his senses: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Ah Qing, as doctors, we should take curing diseases and saving lives as our responsibility."
"But sometimes when you go out, you are bound to encounter all kinds of unexpected things, so you still need to have some skills to protect yourself."
"The Health-Nourishing Fist is fine for dealing with ordinary people, but it is not enough for facing a warrior who also practices martial arts."
Lu Qing nodded.
It's not that the health-preserving fist cannot be used against the enemy, but if it is used against martial arts that can unleash powerful lethality, it will obviously be at a disadvantage.
"You have now entered the Qi and Blood Realm and become a true warrior, so it is time to choose a fighting style martial art to practice."
"Then Master, what kind of fighting style and martial arts can I learn?" Lu Qing asked with some anticipation.
"Although I have a lot of fighting techniques here, most of them are quite ordinary and can only be applied to the Qi and Blood Realm at most. There are only three martial arts that can be truly called fine works. Wait for me."
After saying that, the old doctor walked into the house, and soon he came out with three books.
"These three martial arts, one is stick skills, one is knife skills, and the other is sword skills. Each one is a muscle and bone realm martial art. Which one do you want to learn?"
Lu Qing's gaze moved over the three secret books.
He didn't say anything stupid like I want it all.
Although he possesses special powers, he still understands the principle of greed and greed.
He is now just a small Qi and Blood Realm warrior, and focusing on practicing one martial art is the best choice.
After thinking for a while, Lu Qing finally said, "I choose swordsmanship."
"You'd better think about it carefully. Once you make your choice, it may affect your future path of martial arts." The old doctor said solemnly.
"I've made up my mind, disciple. I'll choose swordsmanship," Lu Qing said in a firm tone.
He is not very interested in stick fighting, and his sword skills are also average.
On the contrary, I was very interested in knife skills.
After all, the knife is more domineering and suits his taste.
"Since you have made up your mind, take this secret book."
The old doctor handed one of the secret books to Lu Qing.
Lu Qing took the secret book, opened the first page, and frowned: "Four-sided Blade?"
"Yes, this sword technique is called the Four-sided Sword. I found this secret book accidentally in a cave when I was collecting herbs in the mountains."
"In the cave, there was a corpse that had turned into dry bones. In front of the corpse, there fell an oil-paper cloth package, which contained the secret book of the Four-sided Sword."
"After I buried the corpse, I took the secret book."
Lu Qing was surprised when he heard this.
He discovered that his master seemed to have had a lot of adventures.
When you are young, you can discover the unknown skills that can give rise to health-preserving boxing.
When you go into the mountains to collect herbs, you may also pick up martial arts secrets.
This luck is really incredible.
"Ah Qing, I have only seen this Four-sided Sword Technique, but I have never practiced it. Since you have chosen this sword technique, I can only give you some training suggestions, but I cannot teach you step by step."
"So how far you can cultivate it depends on yourself."
"Disciple understands." Lu Qing nodded.
“However, although the Four Directions Sword Technique is exquisite, once it is practiced to a high level, even a warrior at the Muscle and Bones Realm would find it difficult to resist its power. But with your martial arts aptitude, it should not be difficult for you to master it.”
The old doctor's confidence in Lu Qing made him feel ashamed.
If he didn't have special abilities, he would have really disappointed his master.
The writer's assistant crashed, so the chapters couldn't be sent out. Sorry.
