Chapter 183

~5 min read 907 words

Daoist Tianmen was stunned.

"Because without Martial Dao aptitude, you aren't even considered a man, so no woman will work for you."

"It is absolutely impossible for you to have a woman!"

Xiao Mochen said.

As the words fell, the crowd burst into laughter.

Xiao Mochen's analogy was truly vivid.

Only Daoist Tianmen felt his head buzzing.

He felt that Xiao Mochen was humiliating him.

But he had no evidence.

Feeling the mockery of others.

With a puff.

Daoist Tianmen was so angry he vomited blood.

So, you all gained some insight?

And I'm the only one who became a joke?

I can't beat him, and I can't win an argument.

I am alone, bearing it all.

"Thank you for your guidance, little friend, but I have one more thing I don't understand!"

"Since you said I am suitable for the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms, why can't I practice it to the extreme?"

Hong Marvelous technique understood, but it seemed he didn't understand.

"That's because you haven't read enough books."

Xiao Mochen said.

"Huh?"

Hong Marvelous technique was stunned.

I haven't read enough books?

Don't lie to me!

Facing Hong Marvelous technique's confusion, Xiao Mochen said again:

"In books, there are golden houses; in books, there are beauties like jade!"

"People in the Jianghu look down on scholars."

"They think scholars are pedantic."

"But if you compare the world of scholars to the Jianghu."

"Then these pedantic scholars are just ordinary Jianghu people."

"And some literary giants, after reading for a thousand days, have a moment of enlightenment and directly reach the divine."

"For example, Huang Shang, who created the Nine Yin Manual, was just a weak scholar before entering the Martial Dao."

"At the age of sixty, he was responsible for compiling Daoist classics."

"After reading for a thousand days, he had a moment of enlightenment and entered the Martial Dao."

"It can be said that if you master one method, you master all methods."

"Are martial arts manuals not a type of book?"

"You martial artists have masters leading your cultivation in the early stages, but can a master lead you for a lifetime?"

Xiao Mochen spoke slowly.

A master leads you to the door, but cultivation depends on the individual.

When a martial artist enters cultivation, they have a master teaching them hand-in-hand.

At this time, it's equivalent to someone opening a cheat for you, helping you read and write.

However, as cultivation increases, if you want to become an expert, you must broaden your horizons and increase your Martial Dao insight.

Reading can make one wise.

"When you first practice the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms, you think it is the most rigid and yang palm technique in the world."

"You and Qiao Feng have straightforward natures."

"Practicing this kind of martial art achieves twice the result with half the effort."

"As your practice deepens, you might be able to comprehend the combination of hardness and softness, acting as you wish."

"But if you want to go further, you need deeper Martial Dao insight..."

Xiao Mochen guided Hong Marvelous technique.

The Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms originally evolved from the I Ching.

This I Ching describes the changes of heaven and earth.

And most Beggar Sect disciples don't read.

They are straightforward men; how would they understand the changes of heaven and earth in the I Ching?

For this reason, no one in the Beggar Sect has completely comprehended the twenty-eight palms.

For this reason, Xiao Mochen said Hong Marvelous technique hadn't read enough books.

There are many ways for martial artists to broaden their horizons.

They can engage in actual combat, accumulate life experience, and see more martial arts.

But these all require time.

Reading is different; reading can use the wisdom of predecessors to enlighten oneself.

It can be considered the fastest way to broaden one's horizons.

Xiao Mochen doesn't know about the original Dragon-Subduing Twenty-Eight Palms of the Beggar Sect.

However, he has the perfect version of the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms.

With his current Martial Dao insight, guiding Hong Marvelous technique is easy.

After some guidance, Hong Marvelous technique suddenly realized.

"Hearing your words today is better than reading for ten years!"

"Reading seems useless, but it can still help at critical moments."

Hong Marvelous technique expressed his gratitude.

Martial artists look down on scholars.

But scholars also often say that martial artists are just brutes.

According to Xiao Mochen, martial artists should also read.

If you don't read, you are just a brute and won't go far.

"Sure enough, everything in the world has its method."

"I once heard that the Scholar Sword Immortal read for decades, and one day he had an epiphany and directly entered the Heavenly Man Realm."

"It seems the rumors were not groundless."

"Chong'er, did you understand?"

【Group Number: 763480157】

Yue Buqun looked at Brother Linghu Chong.

"I understand, Master."

Brother Linghu Chong began to value reading for the first time.

Before, he never liked reading.

He thought Jianghu people didn't need to read.

But after hearing Xiao Mochen's words and thinking carefully.

The famous martial artists in this Jianghu are all well-versed in both literature and martial arts.

Just like the summit of Mount Huashan today.

Xiao Mochen is full of literary talent.

And below Xiao Mochen, Wang Zhenren is also well-read in poetry and books.

As for the Four Greats, Duan Zhixing, Huang Yaoshi, Ouyang Feng—which one of them isn't well-versed in literature? ===== CHAPTER 184 =====
