Chapter 52 Panel Defects
"Um, Grandpa Gong, do you have any questions?"

When Qian Dong came out of the palace, the old man looked a little strange and couldn't help but asked curiously.

"Hey, when normal people practice sandbag shooting, the master will not let them use too much force. They will usually tell them to hit lightly, as long as it feels comfortable. After they get used to it, they can slowly use more force later."

Mr. Gong was a little helpless and could only tell how others did it during practice.

"why?"

Qian Dong was puzzled. He felt that the problem was fine. It seemed good to practice like this.

"Practice on the sandbag. If you use too much force, your hands will hurt."

"Well, it hurts."

Qian Dong still has some fresh memories when he thinks about it now. The pain was like burning or being shocked by electricity, which made it difficult for him to forget.

"This is wrong. If it hurts, we will subconsciously withdraw our strength. The effect of this practice will not be thorough. When a palm is struck, we may subconsciously withdraw our strength without realizing it. This is the human body's An instinct."

As he spoke, Mr. Gong looked at Qian Dong, twitched the corners of his mouth, and added again:
"So when the master is teaching, he will tell them to just shoot casually and not too hard, so that the apprentices will not resist and let the energy flow through.

As for you, you probably have a clear mind, no distracting thoughts, and don't care about the pain that much. "

"Oh, so that's it. What does this have to do with swordsmanship?"

Qian Dong somewhat understood. This should be related to the fact that Mr. Dong had not practiced in depth. He might have given up after practicing a few times, so he did not know the inner skills, so he did not mention this when teaching him.

"The sandbag I just mentioned can be applied to other places as well. Weapons are an extension of the hand, and the hand is an extension of the heart."

After Mr. Gong finished speaking, he waved the hand holding the sword in the air again, and looked at the sword with emotion:

"Although it sounds a bit mysterious, it is a proven experience of the ancients that has been preserved to this day."

"Grandpa Gong, you mean that I have distracting thoughts in my heart, which makes me lose my decisiveness in swinging the sword, right? But I didn't have any distracting thoughts when I was chopping incense. I just focused on repeating it, and even lost track of time. "

Qian Dong frowned a little. He could understand the meaning of Mr. Gong's words, but he didn't know how to adjust it. In other words, he was in a puzzle now and couldn't see himself clearly.

"Hahahaha, where are you thinking? It's not as mysterious as you think, and it's not just any distracting thoughts in my heart."

Mr. Gong saw Qian Dong thinking seriously and couldn't help laughing.

"That……"

Qian Dong frowned and looked at Mr. Gong. He now felt that there was a layer of fog in front of him and he needed someone to help him or give him guidance.

"It sounds complicated, but the simple explanation is that you place too much emphasis on the fact that the sword is fragrant. The purpose of every swing of your sword is to split the sword incense. As you swing the sword, your thoughts will change. As it gets worse, your purpose will unconsciously change every time you swing the sword, from sword practice to chopping incense."

"But isn't the purpose the same? Whether it's sword practice or chopping incense, it's the same action. Why does it become what he is now after the change?"

Gong Yan stood aside and asked aloud. She had been listening just now, but when she heard her grandfather's answer, she felt a little incredible. Would such a change in mentality put people into a bottleneck? "Of course there is a difference. Practicing swords and splitting incense are two different things. If you are practicing swordsmanship, then you will experience the feeling of each swing of the sword, so that you will always make progress. But if you are just splitting incense, your focus will be on It will be placed on the incense. Without that understanding, progress will become slow.

In fact, if an ordinary person is practicing swordsmanship, such a change in mentality does not matter, because from now splitting or extinguishing the incense head, to splitting the incense without extinguishing the incense, it will take a normal person at least one or two years to practice. .

No matter what he thinks, enough practice and even muscle memory are enough for them to achieve their goals. This is a process where practice makes perfect. If it were just an ordinary person, the master would not point out the difference.

Swinging a sword for a long time is a kind of continuous training, a kind of training for opponents, people, and the heart. When a person can come out of such a long period of training, he will complete a transformation both physically and mentally. "

Although Mr. Gong always did things cleanly and neatly, he explained things in great detail when explaining things, making Gong Yan and Qian Dong on the side nod their heads.

"Then what's different about him?"

Gong Yan directly called Qian Dong "him". She was a little stuck when calling her. Her relationship with Qian Dong was not as close as Shen Shishi's and it was difficult to directly address him as brother Dong. Qian Dong was older than her, so it was difficult to call him. Xiaodong, let’s just call him by him.

"Haha, of course it's different. His understanding is very good. If he is practicing swordsmanship, he will gain understanding every time he swings the sword. But if he is splitting incense, he will not be able to get more knowledge before splitting the incense. To make progress, this will delay him a lot of time."

"Oh~~~"

"Oh~~~"

Gong Yan and Qian Dong nodded at the same time and made a sound of understanding. They looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

At this time, Qian Dong also learned about a flaw in adding dots to the panel.

That is to upgrade the swordsmanship, which will directly instill in him experience and mastery of the swordsmanship, and even increase his affinity with the sword, allowing him to get started faster.

But these are all mechanical. Perhaps the main purpose of the panel is not to improve his sword skills, but to improve his physical attributes through sword skills, so that he can crush them with his physical fitness.

People with high understanding will naturally understand these hidden messages if they fight a few more times, while people with low understanding no longer need to understand these. Add points and keep improving. It doesn't matter whether you understand or not.

Just like if he adds some points to Baguazhang, his physical fitness will improve. Even if he doesn't know how to play it at all, he can naturally learn to use it after playing it a few times.

And if Qian Dong has someone to teach him, he can speed up the process so that he can immediately know how to hit someone with someone to practice with him.

The dot panel is more of a fool-proof tool.

"Haha, I understand. Your physical fitness is excellent, your wrist strength is sufficient, and now you have accuracy. For the next practice, you only need to feel the feeling of the sword blade cutting through the air. It's very Quickly splitting incense will become as easy as splitting air."

Seeing that Qian Dong understood, Mr. Gong smiled and nodded.

"Grandpa Gong, I will go back to practice first."

Qian Dong's eyes were shining, he was a little eager to try, and a little impatient to rush back to practice.

"Don't worry, I didn't expect you to progress so quickly. Now that you are here, let's go have a cup of tea and I will continue to tell you some follow-up things about sword training, such as sword skills..."
