Chapter 451: Martial Arts Under the Moon, Apprentice and Master
As the sun sets, the sunset glows on the sparkling river surface. Apprentice Bear clenched his fist and breathed in and out, then smiled and bumped fists with Thunder Wolf Dragon to express his gratitude.
"How is it? Have you become stronger?" Su Yi handed his disciple Xiong a can of drink.
"Bah!"
Apprentice Bear nodded happily, then looked at the skyline blooming with sunset glow, and was momentarily mesmerized.
Then it turned its head and looked around. Dakong was standing on the bow, also admiring the sunset. After noticing the gaze of his bear apprentice, he let out a roar and flapped his wings to signal.
The Thunder Wolf Dragon lay on the grass to rest, the sunset glowed on it, casting a long shadow, and the super-electric lightning bugs behind it floated slowly, as if they were dancing.
Xun Miao hid in the shadow of the trees, wagging his tail lazily, looking forward to the arrival of night.
The Blackhorn Dragon lay quietly on the ground, while Zoroark stood on its big horn and said something smugly. A circle of wild Pokémon gathered around it. They seemed to no longer be afraid of these big guys, and listened to Zoroark's endless chatter attentively and curiously.
"Bei Lu."
At this moment, Apprentice Xiong was filled with emotion and relief. Everyone helped and supported him without complaint. They were his partners and family.
"lucky~"
Chandler waved and called out loudly, and Caidou, Marie, and other Pokémon brought up the picnic utensils and dinner.
"It's time to eat~"
Su Yi smiled and ran to the dining table.
The warm dinner began. The Pokémon and their companions ate quietly and enjoyably. Su Yi did not forget the wild Pokémon around him.
Under the lights of the park, a group of Pokémon gathered together harmoniously and comfortably. Some Pokémon that had eaten their fill played happily, carefree and leisurely.
Several snake-patterned bears came over to thank Su Yi, and Su Yi smiled and held them in his arms, stroking them gently, feeling the furry feeling. The snake-patterned bears showed a comfortable expression, and collapsed in Su Yi's arms, enjoying it, feeling so comfortable.
"Perhaps I can imagine your journey, being accompanied by nature, encountering strange Pokémon, feeling free and novel." Caidou took a string of rabbit dumplings as a dessert after the meal, and sighed at the picture-like scene in front of her.
“It’s not always like this, there are some adventures every now and then.”
Su Yi suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, now that you have come out to practice, what about the gym in Suchuan Town?"
Caidou chewed the dango and said curiously, "Isn't there a ghost gym of Onio in Suchuan Town?"
"Ah this."
Su Yi was slightly stunned. Onio was originally a socially anxious person, so wasn't this just adding to his intensity?
Su Yi: Come on, Onio, I’m so sorry!
Ounio: (0)! ?
As night fell, the wild Pokémon returned to their nests. Su Yi sat leisurely on the bow of the boat, admiring the moonlight.
"Bah Lu~"
Apprentice Xiong jumped lightly and sat next to Su Yi. He glanced at the moonlight, then looked at Su Yi with a relaxed smile on his face.
"What's wrong?" Su Yi asked with a smile.
"Beilu, Beiah Beilu," Apprentice Bear said happily.
It has always been worried that it cannot help everyone, and is afraid of wasting everyone's energy to help it realize its seemingly unrealistic dream, but now everyone still trusts and supports it.
Su Yi smiled and touched his apprentice Bear's little head: "Partners and family are people who can trust, support and rely on each other. Whether it is a partner or a partner's dream, I will lead everyone to protect it together."
"Bei Lu."
Apprentice Xiong looked at the beautiful moonlight and thought that it was really great to be able to travel with Su Yi and become partners with everyone!
"Bah!"
Apprentice Bear suddenly jumped onto the deck and started to perform punches and kicks in the moonlight.
Flying flames in the sky!
The Thunder of the Thunder Wolf Dragon!
Swift Meow's Swift Blade!
The penetration of the black horned dragon!
The fierce claws of the ferocious claw dragon!
Ice Fang Dragon's Piercing!
The bite of the Barbarian Jaw Dragon!
The heavy blow that kills the dragon!
The unique attack methods of each accompanying beast emerged one by one under the imitation of the bear apprentice, vividly and realistically.
But as Su Yi watched, he began to frown slightly, because after the bear disciple imitated one accompanying beast, he had to take a few breaths and disperse the posture before he could imitate another accompanying beast. The process was not coherent, and Su Yi felt a vague sense of disharmony.
Suddenly, Su Yi had an idea and said, "Wait a minute! Disciple Xiong, although you imitated the spirit and form, these are not your fighting styles!"
"Beilu?" Apprentice Xiong looked at Su Yi in confusion.
"Form and stance should all be derived from prototypes and then transformed into something that belongs to you. It's not about imitating them in depth, but about making their fighting style your own."
"If you are too obsessed with form and meaning, you will fall into the lower level. It should be tangible and yet invisible, changeable and free."
Although Su Yi has never practiced martial arts, he has watched a lot of real kung fu martial arts movies of the older generation. The martial arts in those movies are all coherent and self-contained.
For example, Xingyiquan, although it has many "forms", the switching between them is flexible and it is not restricted to any certain form. Other types of martial arts may borrow from the same animal, but because of different concepts, there will be different ways of performance.
"Bei Lu." Apprentice Xiong was stunned for a moment, then frowned in thought, and then slowly moved.
At first, its movements were sluggish. It would stop from time to time to frown and think, and then move slowly again.
Su Yi did not disturb it, but watched quietly with anticipation.
"Bah!"
Apprentice Bear kept adjusting and changing his moves. The confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, and his movements became more and more coherent and smooth, until finally he moved at will, his moves changing freely and integrating with his own actions.
Under the bright moonlight, the little apprentice moved swiftly and swiftly, his punches and kicks moving in a coordinated and superb manner. His large shadow was projected on the deck of the Sailing Ship, like a master practicing martial arts to the moon.
"Bah Lu~"
After an unknown amount of time, the bear disciple slowly put away his fists and feet. The evening breeze blew, and the hair on the back of his head like a headband fluttered in the wind. The moonlight shone on his body, and there seemed to be a flowing glow.
Su Yi smiled and applauded his bear disciple, then solemnly handed it a scroll.
“Remember the story of Po, the Kung Fu Panda?”
"Beilu?" Apprentice Xiong took it with confusion.
"I haven't told you the ending yet, actually it's for now, open it."
Upon hearing this, Apprentice Xiong unfolded the scroll, but there were no words or pictures inside. Instead, it was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting his face.
"Beilu?" Apprentice Xiong looked at Su Yi in confusion.
Su Yi said earnestly: "There has never been any secret to becoming the Dragon Warrior. Keep your faith, study hard, and be the best version of yourself. Whether you evolve or not, you are a true master."
"And now, in my mind, you are already a true Dragon Warrior."
Su Yi smiled and stroked the top of his apprentice Bear’s head.
"Bei Lu." Apprentice Xiong rolled up the scroll carefully and hung it behind his back. His small figure had the demeanor of a master.
There are many things I want to portray in the next few chapters, so I need to polish and lay the groundwork. I feel that I have reached my limit. I don’t know if I can break through it.
