Mount Heng, also known as Nanyue, is one of the Five Sacred Mountains in China and is located in Hengshan County, Hunan Province.

Due to the pleasant climate here, there are lush forests and bamboos everywhere on Hengshan Mountain, which are green all the year round, and there are many exotic flowers and plants that emit fragrance in four seasons, making the scenery very beautiful.

Moreover, Yuelu Mountain to the north of Hengshan Mountain is also a famous Taoist mountain in China, especially Yuelu Academy and Yunlu Palace are the most famous.

It has been more than half a month since Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming came to Mount Heng, Hunan, because several kinds of herbs recorded in "Shen Nong Baicao" are all grown here.

During this period of time, Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming had already found these kinds of herbs, and Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming also directly boarded in Yunlu Palace on Yuelu Mountain during this period.

The Taoist priests in Yunlu Palace were also very enthusiastic towards the two of them, on the one hand, it was because Zhou Hao had given Yunlu Palace a lot of money.

On the other hand, because everyone in Yunlu Palace has learned martial arts, Zhou Hao and the others are kindred spirits, and they also ask each other about martial arts on weekdays.

The most fundamental purpose of Zhou Hao's practice of "Cultivating Qi Record" is to strengthen the body and resist insults and enemies by nourishing Qi and concentrating the mind.

This is very similar to how Taoism achieves physical and mental sublimation through health preservation and physical fitness.

Although Yunlu Palace's martial arts can only be regarded as average, the martial arts of its disciples are not even comparable to Xiao Jiming.

But Zhou Hao benefited a lot from Taoist martial arts concepts, especially Tai Chi, the most famous Taoist martial art.

Zhou Hao used to think that it was only gymnastics for the elderly to strengthen his body, but now he finds that Tai Chi is really broad and profound, and it is not difficult to learn or even master it.

But it is not so easy to comprehend the ideas in it.

At this time, Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming were sitting in a courtyard to the north of Yunlu Palace. There was no fence here, and it was directly connected to the bamboo forest outside.

Zhou Hao and his wife will leave Hengshan tomorrow to go to Hubei, so today is their last day in Yunlu Palace.

"Wudang Mountain and Jiugong Mountain in Hubei are holy places of Taoism. If you go there, you can visit them."

In the bamboo forest, an old man in his seventies wearing an old Taoist robe was chopping the bamboos with a machete.

"Shanbo, what about you, have you ever been to Wudang Mountain and Jiugong Mountain?" Zhou Hao asked the old man named "Shanbo".

"Me?" Shanbo smiled, and continued chopping the bamboo in front of him.

"I have lived here for more than 40 years and have never gone down the mountain, not to mention Wudang Mountain, I have never even been to the market at the foot of the mountain."

Zhou Hao and the two have known this Shanbo since the first day they stayed here in Yunlu Palace.

He has lived in Yunlu Palace for decades, but he is not a Taoist priest here, but a worker in Yunlu Palace, who is usually responsible for chopping firewood for cooking.

For more than half a month, he has been in charge of Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming's daily diet.

He cut down those bamboos to make some bamboo baskets and other utensils for Yunlu Palace.

Although he is more than seventy years old, Shanbo is still strong and strong. Although his hair is gray on his head, his face is as rosy as a man in his prime.

Zhou Hao, who was sitting in the yard, had been paying attention to him for a long time, and found that Shan Bo could cut down even those tall bamboo trees that were as thick as bowls.

Since this morning, Shanbo has never used a second knife to chop trees, and the one he is holding is just an ordinary hatchet with many gaps on the blade.

"Shanbo, your saber skills are amazing." Zhou Hao pointedly said.

Shan Bo smiled faintly, "It's just cutting down trees, there's no such thing as sword skills."

Zhou Hao didn't speak, just watched Shanbo chopping bamboo in silence. It was the first time he saw Shanbo chopping a tree today, but he found that his technique contained deep mysteries.

From a distance, Shanbo's movements seem to be drawing "circles". Whether it is the swing of his arms, the change of his steps or the trajectory of the hatchet, they all faintly form "circles".

Zhou Hao felt that Shan Bo's whole body was like the image of Tai Chi Yin Yang fish.

Unknowingly, Shanbo's movements appeared repeatedly in Zhou Hao's mind one by one, and Zhou Hao's spirit also moved with Shanbo's movements.

And the more he observed, the more Zhou Hao felt that this was a set of mysterious and extraordinary saber techniques. There are no gorgeous moves and no intimidating momentum.

Zhou Hao even felt that Shanbo's knife was waving with the flow of air.

Everything is so natural, yes, Shanbo seems to be integrated with nature.

What's more, watching Shan Bo's movement of swinging the knife, Zhou Hao's true energy of "Nursing Qi Record" also circulated automatically.

In the end, Zhou Hao couldn't help but stood up and came to Shanbo, and smiled at him: "Shanbo, can you let me try?"

"It's time for you to come over and help. Just watch me work as an old man over there, and you'll feel good about it." Shan Bo handed the hatchet to Zhou Hao with a smile.

Zhou Hao took the hatchet and looked at the hatchet with many gaps. That's right, it's just an ordinary hatchet.

Following Shanbo's movements and following the flow of the air, Zhou Hao raised his knife and slashed down at a bamboo in front of him.

With a sound of "啪啦", the bamboo fell down in response.

However, although Zhou Hao also chopped off the bamboo with one knife, half of it was due to his own brute force, and the incision was far less neat than Shanbo's.

Shan Bo smiled and shook his head, "This is not acceptable. Not only must your movements be round, but you must also know the bamboo and find the best cutting edge."

He looked deeply at a bamboo next to him, and then said to Zhou Hao: "You have to feel it, the so-called knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to fight a hundred battles."

Victory cannot be achieved by brute force alone.

Also, pay more attention to the flow of the wind and let it become your help. "

"Try again." Shan Bo said to Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao took a deep breath, then slowed down his breathing, quietly feeling the air flow around him and the bamboo in front of him.

At this moment, he seemed to find a circular trajectory appearing in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but chop down along this trajectory.

With a soft sound, the bamboo in front of him broke apart neatly and fell down.

Shan Bo looked at Zhou Hao brilliantly, "You are so talented, you have mastered the trick so quickly."

Zhou Hao laughed and said, "But it's still far behind Shan Bo."

"Hahahahaha... As long as you have been chopping firewood for decades like me, you will also have this skill."

Then, Shan Bo told Zhou Hao some secrets, although from the beginning to the end, Shan Bo did not teach Zhou Hao any moves.

However, Zhou Hao believed that, like Taijiquan, it was a teaching of martial arts concepts. Shan Bo's inspiration to him could even be compared with that of Dr. Gongsun who led him into the door of martial arts.

It is tantamount to opening another door for Zhou Hao.

Both Zhou Hao and Xiao Jiming didn't have much luggage, so it was very convenient to come and go. After saying goodbye to the Taoist priests of Yunlu Palace, they left.

On the way down the mountain, Xiao Jiming asked Zhou Hao: "Master, do you think Shanbo really knows martial arts?"

Zhou Hao shook his head, "I don't know, he doesn't have any internal energy, he doesn't even know Tai Chi."

He looked up at the cloud-shrouded Mount Heng, "However, I think Shanbo is the one with the highest level of martial arts in this Mount Heng."

Xiao Jiming scratched his head, "I can't quite understand your method of chopping wood just now, is that really a kind of knife method?"

"It's not just a sword technique." Zhou Hao sighed, "You can even think it's another kind of martial arts mentality."

He raised his hands and waved them according to Shanbo's method just now, even though he didn't have a knife in his hand, or he didn't need a knife or other foreign objects in the first place.

Zhou Hao's movements were still flowing, drawing "circles" one after another.

From Xiao Jiming's point of view, Zhou Hao's movements are somewhat similar to Tai Chi, but also seem to be somewhat different.

The strong zhenqi in Zhou Hao's body also flowed with the movement of his hands at this time, and when the "circle" in Zhou Hao's hand was pushed out, the zhenqi in his body also had an urge to leak out.

"Hey!" When Zhou Hao's palm slid across the air, a gust of energy suddenly came out of his palm, cutting through the air and hitting a pine tree in the distance.

And the pine and cypress that seemed to be several decades old fell down so straight, and the incision was so neat that it was difficult to achieve this effect even with a sharp knife.

Not only Xiao Jiming, but even Zhou Hao himself was stunned.

Zhou Hao stared blankly at his palms. Obviously, he himself had never thought of such an effect.

And Xiao Jiming also murmured: "Could it be... Could this be the legendary 'sword energy'?"

Zhou Hao believes that the so-called sword qi is actually formed by a person with high internal strength pouring his own true energy into the sword. As long as the internal strength is deep enough, it is not difficult to achieve.

However, the Mr. Jingu whom he met earlier, even though he didn't have a sword in his hand, Zhou Hao could still feel the aura of a sword in his hand.

However, rather than saying that it is saber energy, it is better to say that it is a kind of "sword intent", which can only be possessed by years of immersion in saber arts and some comprehension.

And what Shanbo taught Zhou Hao just now was not any moves or saber techniques, but a kind of martial arts spirit, which is somewhat similar to Mr. Jingu's saber intent.

Shan Bo didn't have a trace of internal strength, but he was able to exert such power with an old hatchet, which was actually due to his "sword intent".

"The knowledge of martial arts is really broad and profound." Zhou Hao said with emotion.

He had fully stimulated his own potential because of the transformation of Ambergris, so no matter what he learned, it was much easier than others.

Just like when he practiced "Qi Yang Lu" for more than half a month, his cultivation base is much deeper than Dr. Gongsun who has been immersed in this way for a lifetime, and his internal strength is also comparable to the effect of ordinary people's hard work for a hundred years.

With such a deep and solid foundation, and now that he has experienced the "Sword Intent" taught by Shan Bo, Zhou Hao's cultivation in martial arts will be deeper and his realm will be higher.

When he came to the foot of the mountain, Zhou Hao called his family to report to Yan Tong that he was safe.

"When do you plan to come back?" Yan Tong asked on the phone.

"About a month." Zhou Hao replied.

Yan Tong said: "Your school has already prepared for you an early exam, you should come back as soon as possible."

While chatting with Zhou Hao, Yan Tong accidentally mentioned Li Ruolan.

"I haven't seen Teacher Li during this period of time. A few days ago, I thought that the school would ask her to help you extend your leave.

But the school said that Mr. Li has not come back yet, and it is said that he has also asked the school for leave. "

"What? Sister Lan... Teacher Li hasn't returned to school yet?" Zhou Hao was stunned.
