The Mang Wilderness

Chapter 10 Footwork

Half an hour after the end of the arrow training, the sun has risen.

"Ning'er, I'll teach you footwork." Yu Chixue, dressed in white fur, looked at her son with a smile.

"Yes." Ji Ning replied.

Although I had a sore back and back after practicing Jianjian, my body recovered at an amazing speed because of the practice of "Aka Ming Nine Heavens", and he was refreshed and full of fighting spirit at the moment.

"In close combat, footwork is even as important as swordsmanship!" Yu Chixue solemnly said, "During the battle between the two, the one with the strongest footwork will flicker and move...it can make it hard for the enemy to hurt you, and You can hurt him easily."

Ji Ning nodded.

He understands.

Close combat is not a silly one with one sword for you and one for me, but like a phantom constantly changing positions to fight each other. Like Sanda and boxing in previous lives, the top boxers and Sanda masters all attach great importance to footwork. The exquisiteness of footwork can prevent the enemy from hitting you with ten punches. Even if you hit it, your strength will be weak.

The importance of footwork even surpasses boxing! Ji Ning is rather keen to watch some sports competitions because of the pain and suffering in his previous life, so he understands the importance of boxing and Sanshou.

In this world, gods and demons are looming, but the basic principles are similar.

Footwork is the top priority.

"I taught your footwork called "Wind Shadow Step"." Yu Chixue said, "Don't look at its ordinary name, but it is a mysterious method. The entire Ji clan's five residences are considered the top footwork, and only Only I will! This footwork... once you learn it, you will know how to flicker and move in a small area, and at the same time, you will be able to escape with light effort."

"Look carefully at the basic six steps first." Yu Chixue flipped her hand, and a native yellow book appeared in her hand.

Ji Ning took it and immediately took a closer look.

The book describes in detail the basic six-step method of "Wind Shadow Step", and the footwork is extremely delicate in terms of power operation.

"Don't be fooled." Yu Chixue pointed to the distance, "Look over there."

When Ji Ning turned his head, there were piles of wooden piles standing in the distance. At first glance, he was afraid that there were thousands of piles. They were of different heights and distances, just like forests. And above these stakes are hung animal skin bags, densely packed, and there are also thousands of animal skin bags hanging.

"That's called a Thousand Star Array!" Yu Chixue said, "With the cooperation of the Thousand Star Array, you should be able to train "Wind Shadow Step" to the smallest level within ten years. If there is no Thousand Star Array...I'm afraid it will take several times."

""Feng Ying Step" is divided into three levels."

"One is the foundation."

"Second, it's the finest."

"Three, it is the unity of man and nature."

Yu Chixue looked at Ji Ning, "In fact, no matter what footwork, swordsmanship, swordsmanship, marksmanship, etc., can be divided into these three realms. Like the second level of swordsmanship,'mindfulness' can also be referred to as'human sword combined. One'."

"Did you remember all the secrets of the basic six steps?" Yu Chixue asked.

"Take it down." Ji Ning nodded.

Yu Chixue walked to the Thousand Star Array, and then pointed to a very short wooden stake: "Go to this wooden stake."

"Yes." Ji Ning took a relaxed step and reached the stake.

Standing on the stakes, I felt swaying. The stakes were not too thick and could only accommodate one foot. Fortunately, he has practiced Chiming Nine Heavens Chart, and his body is extremely balanced, so he can stand firm.

"Listen to my order now. You can use which step of the six basic steps I want you to perform." Yu Chixue said, "Progress!"

Ji Ning remembered the method of exerting his strength, tried a forward thrust, and fell on a wooden stake in front of him in one step, but when he hit the hanging animal skin bag, Peng fell off and fell to the ground. .

"Remember, moving on the wooden stakes of the Thousand Star Array, it is f*******n to touch any animal skin bag. Once you touch it, you will start again." Yu Chixue said.

Ji Ning gritted his teeth.

Do not believe in evil anymore.

He got on the low stake again, followed a bow to progress, and escaped the sandbags and rushed to the stake. However, the forward momentum was too great, and the whole person swayed for a long time before shaking his hands repeatedly before he could stand firmly on one foot.

"Remember, the footwork is like nails, one nail at a time, and when it falls on the stake, it will be nailed there!" Yu Chixue said, "One step, not too small, not too big. Not too light or too heavy. Like you just now In such a mess, the fight between life and death has long been stabbed to death by the enemy's discovery of a flaw. Continue, progress!"

"progress!"

"Walk!"

"Leap!"

"Regress!"

"Withdraw!"

"Turn around!"

Yu Chixue ordered again and again.

In fact, no matter what footwork, the basic footwork is so few steps, progress and regression, etc. But the different methods are the difference between the world and the earth in terms of technique... Some cultivated, and they changed like lightning. And some of the footwork is drifting like the wind, while others are changing like a ghost.

The mystery of footwork is different, and the actual combat is also different.

"Bang!" He didn't squat deep enough, and his back was still rubbed under the skin of the animal, causing it to fail to fall on the stake at all.

Ji Ning connected the stake to continue without saying a word.

"Boom!" The knees are not bent enough.

"Boom!" The power is not light enough.

...

I saw Ji Ning on the thousands of wooden stakes, flashing and moving again and again, frantically exercising the basic six steps. Because of the obstacles of the hanging animal skin bag, Ji Ning's body is also in various postures to avoid obstacles. No matter what kind of posture, the premise must be that the center of gravity is stable and the feet are stable!

"Mother, when will I practice?" Ji Ning was smashed miserably.

"Ning'er, start with the shortest stake, walk over 1,008 stakes, and jump off the tallest stake! Do not touch any animal skin bags in the middle!"

"If you complete it within ten breaths, you will be considered as the ‘foundation’ of the first state of your footwork." Yu Chixue said with a smile.

Ji Ning was stunned: "What, ten breaths? In such a short period of time...Even on flat ground, I ran down for more than ten breaths." One thousand and eight stakes walked all over. It's more than a thousand meters, and it will take a while to fly more than a thousand meters by yourself.

"After Ning'er, your Chiming Nine Heavens Chart is the first level of training. If it is on a flat ground, ten breaths can almost fly down." Yu Chixue smiled.

"This..." Ji Ning was surprised.

"In the Thousand Star Array, it is like walking on the ground. Only then has it reached the first realm'foundation' realm." Yu Chixue smiled.

"What about the second realm's'refined'?" Ji Ning couldn't help asking.

Yu Chixue pushed the animal skin bags on the side, and the animal skin bags immediately hit other animal skin bags. Soon thousands of animal skin bags swayed against each other, and they naturally swayed irregularly when they hit each other.

"The second realm is'refined', that is, when all the animal skins and bags are swaying and hitting each other, you still start from the shortest stake, and walk through all the 1,008 stakes in ten breaths. And jumped down from the highest stake, and couldn't touch any animal skin bags on the way." Yu Chixue looked at Ji Ning, "If you do, your second realm of'refinement' is considered."

"This, this, how is this possible? All the animal skin bags are shaking, how to avoid it? Maybe there is only a moment of opportunity. You have to avoid all the animal skin bags and you have to step on the point of the wooden stake. It's so short. Time..." Ji Ning felt this was too difficult, how could it be done.

"So, with the help of the Thousand Star Array, you should be able to practice "Wind Shadow Step" to the smallest level within ten years." Yu Chixue said, "From now until noon, you will always be on the Thousand Star Array stake."

"Then the third realm,'Heaven and Man are one'?" Ji Ning couldn't help but said.

Yu Chixue looked at Ji Ning and smiled: "That's a realm, and I will know it when I get there."

"How strong is it? There is always a saying," Ji Ning asked.

"Well, I just want to say...I can't touch my body with all arrows." Yu Chixue looked at her son.

"Thousands of arrows are coming?" When Ji Ning thought about the dense and numerous arrows shooting, but they were all missing, it was incredible. People's bodies are so big anyway, countless arrows have already filled all the space. It stands to reason. There is no way to hide.

Yu Chixue smiled and said: "Don't be discouraged. Among the many tribal warriors, the best acquired can only reach the first realm ‘foundation’."

"Innate creatures generally reach the second realm in their footwork."

"Purple Mansion monk, generally reach the third realm of'Harmony of Heaven and Man.' Of course, some outstanding innate creatures can also reach the oneness of Heaven and Man... like your father!" Yu Chixue said.

"Father?" Ji Ning was pleasantly surprised.

"Your father's footwork is the realm of harmony between man and nature, and even the'sword technique' that is more difficult to practice than footwork. Your father is in the state of harmony between man and nature." Yu Chixue smiled, "That's why your father is. The undisputed number one in Ji's Western Mansion can shock countless tribes."

Ji Ning's heart is full of pride, and his father can do it! If you have the "Nuwa Picture" and the wisdom of the previous life, you can definitely do it too!

"carry on!"

"progress!"

"Turn around!"

"Leap!"

I saw Ji Ning's young figure gleaming cautiously on the wooden stakes of the Thousand Star Array again and again, and sometimes fell down.

...

Afternoon.

After eating, drinking and resting, he was taken to the martial arts training ground by his father. The spring sun in the afternoon was very bright and it was very comfortable to shine on.

"Father." Ji Ning looked at a father with white animal skin like an iceberg, but he admired it in his heart. Some powerful monsters such as dragons were beheaded by his father, and both power and skill had reached the pinnacle. Even some innate want to learn swords under the door of his father.

My father has nine major disciples, and three of the nine major disciples are congenital beings. But my father only pointed out the nine major disciples once a month.

But to teach yourself, but to teach every day!

"From today, I will teach you how to practice swords." Ji Yichuan said coldly, looking at his son, "swords are not bows and arrows or footwork."

"As long as you are proficient in bow and arrow learning, you will have stronger strength in the future and look farther, and you will naturally be able to shoot more powerful arrows!"

"Although footwork is important, it is still only an auxiliary method... the last sword is used to kill the enemy!"

"The sword is a short soldier! It is light and agile, with double-edged blades, and it is more subtle and changeable to use than a knife. It can easily kill the enemy with one stroke, one stab, one cleavage, one stroke, one point, and even one person can practice randomly , I’m afraid I’ll hurt myself. It’s a real killing blade.” Ji Yichuan looked at his son.

However, Ji Ning was full of enthusiasm and expectation, and his eyes lighted: "Father, what swordsmanship do I learn?"

"Swordsmanship? Wait a few more years!" Ji Yichuan said coldly.

"Wait a few more years?" Ji Ning wondered.

Ji Yichuan said coldly: "The sword is an extension of the body! If you want to use the sword well, first of all you can control your body well. You have to practice the boxing first. After that, the arms and feet of the body are extremely flexible and can be used freely. It's just a physical preparation for'sword practice'!"

"Just being physically prepared is not enough."

"You also need to prepare your'heart' for sword practice!"
