After saving the person, Li Rui pulled Duan Xingyan away. Even after walking for a long distance, Duan Xingyan still looked stunned. After a long while, they were about to return to King Zhennan's Mansion when Duan Xingyan came back to his senses and said excitedly,"Big Brother's martial arts are so amazing. I'm willing to learn this kind of martial arts that can save lives. I wonder if Big Brother can teach me ~~"
Li Rui was very happy when he saw that it was effective. He thought that it seemed that the previous guidance was wrong. In fact, this paragraph of Xingyan was not that pedantic, so he said,"I created this unique skill to save people. It's not against the rules of my Nanhua Faction to teach it to you. However, you don't have any foundation in martial arts. This skill involves a lot of things and is really difficult to comprehend. There is a very mysterious finger technique in your family's martial arts. Although it is a good finger technique for pressing acupoints, it is unparalleled in the world when used to treat illnesses and save people. As long as you practice it to the highest realm, it is even more brilliant than the method I created. It was the best martial art to save people, but it was a pity that he was not fated to see it this time!”
Duan Xingyan remained silent after hearing Li Rui's words. Li Rui knew that he was having an internal struggle, so he didn't rush him. The matter of saving people had already planted a good seed in his heart. He was kind-hearted and extremely intelligent. He would definitely understand that there was no good or evil in martial arts. The good or evil of martial arts depended on the person who used it, not the martial arts itself.
After returning to the Prince's mansion, Li Rui and Duan Xingyan went to the front hall to wait. A maid had already gone to report the news that the Crown Prince and Li Rui had returned. Not long after, the chief refuter arrived, still bringing Jia Silai and Shi Chizuo. Li Rui bowed to Duan Zheng and said,""Heavenly Venerate Immeasurable, this junior's hasty visit has already disturbed me for a long time. This afternoon, the prince has also brought this junior to enjoy the famous scenery of Dali. Although I have regrets, I should leave and go to the next place. I'm here to take my leave. Prince Duan, Brother Duan, Third Brother Jia, Fourth Brother Shi, we'll meet again ~"
Duan Zhengbo didn't expect Li Rui to leave so suddenly. He hurriedly said,"Little brother is a dog that has neglected many things. This Prince will definitely punish him ~" Li Rui waved his hand and said,""Prince Duan, you misunderstood. Junior and Brother Duan hit it off at first sight and had a good chat. How could I be negligent ~~"Then, he said,"Prince Duan already knows my ambition. I have traveled the mortal world and devoted my entire life to the pursuit of martial arts. I hope Your Highness can understand ~~"
Duan Zhengbo was very helpless. He really wanted Li Rui to stay in King Zhennan's Mansion for a few more days. Firstly, he could chat with Li Rui about the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs. Secondly, he also wanted to ask Li Rui about his martial arts. Thirdly, he hoped that Li Rui could guide Duan Xingyan to learn martial arts. Now that he had not completed one thing, how could he be satisfied? However, Li Rui had already decided to leave, so he could not force him to stay!
Duan Zheng Bo's thoughts raced, but he said,""Little brother, since you insist on doing it, this king shouldn't have stopped you, but it's already late, so please stay in your humble abode for a night and leave after noon tomorrow.”Li Rui saw that he was indeed inviting him warmly and could not decline, so he agreed to stay for the night. At night, they drank to their hearts 'content and chatted happily. Before going to bed at night, Li Rui's guest room was not far from Duan Xingyan's, so the two of them chatted about poetry and medical scriptures until midnight.
The next morning, after greeting Prince Duan, he continued to tour Dali with Duan Xingyan. For lunch, they went to a restaurant in Dali City to taste the local food. After lunch, Li Rui and Duan Xingyan returned to the Prince's mansion. Li Rui once again stated that he was indeed leaving. Although Duan Zhengbo still didn't want Li Rui to leave, he couldn't stop Li Rui from leaving. Otherwise, he would be forcing him to stay.
Duan Zhengbo said helplessly," Since little brother is determined to leave, I won't stop you anymore. Please take care of yourself. We'll meet again if fate permits!"”Li Rui also bowed and said,""The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever. We will meet again in the future. Farewell." Someone specially said to Duan Xingyan,"Brother Duan, we'll meet again in the martial world!”
Everyone also cupped their hands and said,"Goodbye!"”Duan Xingyan watched as Li Rui walked far away before returning to his room in the Prince's mansion. He thought for a long time about how Li Rui had treated the old man with martial arts until a maid came to inform him that the Emperor had arrived and sent him to dinner! Duan Xingyan slowly woke up!
The reason why Dali Emperor Duan Zhenqing came was related to Li Rui. Li Rui came to King Zhennan's Mansion the morning before and chatted with him and two of the four families for the whole morning. In the middle of the day, he even went to the martial arts field for two rounds of competition. After that, Duan Zhengbo praised Li Rui all day long. Everyone in the mansion knew that an extraordinary young Taoist had come. Dali City was not big to begin with, so news of it reached Duan Zhengqing's ears in the afternoon. Because the state affairs had not been dealt with, there was another morning court session the next day. Therefore, he came to the King Zhennan's Mansion the next afternoon, intending to meet Li Rui. Let's see what kind of young talent Li Rui is. Who knew he would come a step too late? Hence, they gathered together for a meal.
During dinner, Duan Xingyan was absent-minded. Usually, when Duan Xingyan's uncle came to King Zhennan's Mansion for dinner, he would talk non-stop and was very close to his uncle. Today's abnormality made Uncle Duan Zheng Qing very surprised. Halfway through the meal, she couldn't help but ask,"Xingyan, is something bothering you today?”
When Duan Xingyan heard his uncle's question, he immediately came back to his senses. In fact, he was just thinking about whether he should practice martial arts or not. "Uncle, can martial arts save people?" Duan Xingyan asked abruptly. Is the Shaoyang Finger of our Dali's Duan family extremely effective in treating injuries?”He asked these questions directly without any preparation, which really made Duan Zhengqing confused.
However, no matter how Duan Xingyan suddenly asked about martial arts, could it be that he was interested in learning martial arts? Duan Zhengqing did not care about the reason and answered directly,""Xingyan, of course martial arts can be used to save people, protect the weak from being bullied, punish the wicked, persuade the wicked to do good, protect your loved ones, protect the country, and defend the dignity of the nation. All of these required martial strength. There was nothing wrong with etiquette, but the world was greedy. If one did not have the strength to guarantee these, even a country would collapse!”
After pondering for a moment, Duan Zhengqing said,""As for the Duan Clan's family martial art, Shaoyang Finger, which you asked about, it's both an internal art and a finger technique. It mainly uses acupuncture points to subdue the enemy and doesn't have much lethality.‘Shaoyang is a yang meridian. Yang qi is not strong, so it is called Shaoyang. Yang governs hair growth. Shaoyang is the birth of yang qi. Its zang-organs correspond to the liver, and the five elements correspond to the wood. The season corresponds to spring. In spring, one yang is born, and vitality is born. All things are born, and one yang is born and endless. Yang qi is the most precious treasure of the human body, so Shaoyang Finger can make people's yang qi grow like spring, which is actually a method to save people, not a method to kill people.”Therefore, there was no distinction between good and evil in martial arts. It all depended on the person!
For the next two days, Duan Xingyan hid in his room. He didn't come out at all except for dinner, which made Duan Zhengbo extremely worried. Duan Xingyan was usually a person who couldn't stay idle. He stayed in his room for two consecutive days. On the third day, Duan Zhengbo came to Duan Xingyan's room early in the morning to see what was wrong with Duan Xingyan.
As soon as Duan Zhengbo came in, he saw Duan Xingyan studying medicine and medicine again. For a moment, Duan Zhengbo was so angry that he couldn't even vent his anger. Just as he was furious, Duan Xingyan saw Duan Zheng coming over and said happily,"Father, you brought the secret manual of the Shaoyang Finger with you, right? I want to learn it now ~" Duan Zhengbo wanted to scold Duan Xingyan, but he was so happy to hear that Duan Xingyan wanted to learn the Shaoyang Finger now. He dragged Duan Xingyan to his secret room without any explanation.
What was Li Rui doing now? In fact, after Li Rui had left the Prince's Mansion that day, he had made a detour and sneaked back to the Prince's Mansion again, hoping to see Duan Zhengbo practicing the Duan Family's Finger Skill and comprehend it properly. Who knew that Duan Xingyan would lock himself in his room all day, and Duan Zhengbo would also frown all day. In the past two days, he had only practiced a set of "Double Night Double Fei Palm". This set of palm skill was practiced by both men and women, so it didn't have much power. However, when both men and women used it together, it would be affectionate. It was more like dancing. However, Duan Xingyan was about to learn Shaoyang Finger now, and Li Rui took the opportunity to learn it secretly.
Li Rui secretly followed Duan Zhengbo and Duan Xingyan to the secret chamber. Li Rui's martial arts cultivation was much higher than theirs, so it was not easy for the Duan father and son to discover Li Rui. After arriving at the secret room, Duan Zheng moved a bookshelf. There was a secret compartment on the wall behind the bookshelf. Li Rui knew that Shaoyang Finger must be in this secret compartment. Li Rui did not intend to snatch it by force. He only wanted to plan slowly.
After Duan Zhengbo took out the secret manual from the secret compartment, he said to Duan Xingyan,"Xingyan, this is Dali's Duan Clan's family heirloom technique, Shaoyang Finger. This internal force finger technique originally had four secret manuals. When Dali rebelled, Eternal Peace Crown Prince went missing, and the secret manual that belonged to Eternal Peace Crown Prince was lost along with him. Now, your father and your uncle have one each, and there's another one in the Wuxia Temple's Sutra Library. Since you've thought it through today, this secret manual will be temporarily kept by you, but you can't take it out of the Imperial Residence.”
The two of them didn't know that Li Rui was currently in the middle of a storm. The Shaoyang Finger was completely different from what they had imagined. It was also because Li Rui didn't have much contact with the higher-ups of the martial world, so he had never heard of it. Alright then! This world was so different. Perhaps it was another small world or a parallel space. As a modern person, it wasn't that he couldn't understand the concept of parallel space. Li Rui quietly listened to the conversation between father and son ~
Duan Xingyan respectfully took it with both hands and said,""Father, don't worry. I'll memorize this book first, then you can teach me how to cultivate.”Duan Zhengbo was very pleased. He said," Xingyan, you can recite here first. I'll send someone to bring you lunch. I'll come over in the afternoon to read this secret manual for you."”After Duan Zhengbo left, Duan Xingyan began to read aloud. As he read Li Rui, he silently memorized it and read it three times from beginning to end. There were only two thousand words in total, and geniuses like Li Rui and Duan Xingyan had already memorized the entire text. It wasn't even noon yet, so Li Rui didn't want to starve here, so he sneaked away. As for Duan Zhengbo's explanation of the scriptures and secret manuals for Duan Xingyan in the afternoon, Li Rui wasn't interested. First of all, Li Rui wasn't planning to cultivate and was only comprehending. Moreover, how could Duan Zhengbo's knowledge of martial arts be compared to Li Rui's martial arts accumulation in Nanhua Carefree Sect.
Thank you for watching. If you think it's good, please send more flowers and collect them ~ I'll work harder ~
