Chapter 21 Chapter 10 Secret Account Book

Kou Zhong flew down from a huge boulder as high as three feet high, and with a sound of "Peng", he fell firmly on the beach, fell completely, and couldn't distinguish anything. Xu Ziling next to him knelt down and bowed his head with a wry smile: "Our beautiful master is right, her 'Bird Crossing Technique' is completely different from our own so-called peerless magical skills, no matter how it is activated by luck and breathing." , like never being able to blend together. It seems that our dream of lightness kung fu can come to an end." Kou Zhong turned around, looked up at him and said, "Don't give up so quickly, okay? Remember our great theory! As long as the internal and external are united, we can activate the true energy in the body, and the only way to unite the internal and external It’s just that I forget everything.”

Xu Ziling said in distress: "The problem is that we are just ordinary people, and we can't reach that level every time we jump high and low. Hey! I have a very stupid method." Kou Zhong suddenly sat up and said: "If you can even think of a solution to this kind of problem, it is definitely not a stupid solution." Xu Ziling said: "Do you remember that adventure where we jumped into the sea from the big ship sent by Dongming?" Kou Zhong said: "I can't forget my dream! I almost drowned." Xu Ziling said solemnly: "Not only did we not die, but we also naturally learned how to breathe underwater. It can be seen that when we are in a certain desperate situation, we will naturally use the treasure in the body that our mother said, and this treasure has long been described in " The strange technique of "Longevity Jue" has been activated, and the treasure will be forced out only at the critical moment of life and death."

Kou Zhong looked at the stone he had just jumped off, and his expression changed: "Didn't you suggest that we jump down from the Baizhang cliff together?" Xu Ziling shrugged and said, "What are you afraid of? If there is only the sea below, you will never fall to your death." Kou Zhong shook his head and said: "That will never work, only if we fall to pieces, our true energy will be forced out." This time it was Xu Ziling's turn to change his face and said, "You're not serious, are you?" Kou Zhongsu said: "The high cliff of hundreds of feet is an exaggeration. I am afraid that the beauty master will fall to his death. About ten feet is enough. Alas! Xiaoling! Let me go and try it first! I really fell to my death, so I was cremated, and then the ashes were taken back to my mother’s small valley for burial, and you died. If you want to become a martial arts master, be a good cook obediently. When you give birth to a son in the future, change your name to Xu Zhong to commemorate me This great brother!"

Xu Ziling lost his voice: "Tell me you are joking!" Kou Zhong shook his head and said: "When you meet people like Yu Wenhuagu and Du Fuwei, you will never be willing to be mediocre again. And if you meet a beauty like Niang or Master Meiren, it will be very difficult to be willing. Marry an ordinary woman as a beautiful wife. I have to fight this fight anyway. If I win, I may practice peerless lightness kung fu. If I lose, I will go to the underworld to find my mother and do my filial piety. Do you understand? My good brother." Xu Ziling sat down slumped, and said with a dumb smile: "Your words are always very convincing, if you want to die, let's die together."

The two stood on the edge of the high cliff, looked down at the grass and rocks more than ten feet below, and hesitated again. Kou Zhong said in a low voice: "It seems to be a bit high, we are so stupid, we forgot to ask Master Meiren how many zhangs an average junior master can jump." Xu Ziling looked at the magnificent starry sky and said with a wry smile, "Should I go back to sleep?" Kou Zhong took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said, "I yelled for the third time, and jumped down together. Remember... well, don't remember anything, let everything take its course."

Xu Ziling shouted: "One!" Kou Zhong continued: "Two!" Then the two yelled in unison: "Three!" Using force on all fours, the two bounced off the edge of the cliff and came to the void outside the cliff. In an instant, all the deep and unforgettable memories of the past, such as meeting Fu Junmao in the stream, her death, being carried by Du Fuwei to run wildly in the field, walking with Susu on the street, and Qingqing's cold treatment in the brothel The astonishment of seeing Yun Yuzhen for the first time, all in the gap of the flash, quickly passed through my heart, and then there was a blank.

Then feel the body fall rapidly. At this moment of life and death, suddenly no external air can be breathed at all, but the internal breath is ignited like a torch. Like a dream. Suddenly, they understood the formula to mobilize the true energy in their bodies. It is necessary to cut off the acquired breath before we can activate the real breath in the body, which is what Taoism calls the innate breath. The two of them have ants walking all over their bodies, and the exchange of true energy is endless. Xu Ziling went up from the spring, while Kou Zhong came down from the spirit of the sky.

At the same time, they remembered Master Meiren'er's bird crossing technique, took a breath of true energy, pressed down with both palms, and used the "reverse force", which immediately produced an upward recoil force, which greatly reduced the speed of falling, and also moved towards It rose half a foot, turned a somersault, and then fell into a pile of dense grass with a "puff", falling into a sky full of stars. Kou Zhong got up first and shouted: "Mom! We succeeded." Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling finally took an unparalleled step in martial arts and made the most critical breakthrough.Although there is still a distance from the level of a real master, it is moving in that direction.

One day, Xu Ziling had a whim and dragged Kou Zhong to practice martial arts under the sea, but he couldn't get a foothold anyway, so each of them tied a stone to his foot, which improved the situation. Gradually, they discovered that they could actually focus their strength on their feet through luck, and even resist the impact of the undercurrent, instead of relying on stones. After making this discovery, they began to experiment with ascending and descending in sea water, and they had a great time practicing. On the ground, with the experience of the bottom, it is even more handy to practice the bird crossing technique. They can easily fly up an ordinary tree with a length of about two feet, and show off various postures and tricks when jumping down.

They also exchanged weapons to fight each other, and gradually mastered the method of luck. It was the big day agreed with Yun Yuzhen that night, and the two came to the beach dressed neatly. Kou Zhong sat down and thought for a while, then said: "It is necessary to be on guard against others, I forgot whether it was mother who said it or Du Fuwei who said it." Xu Ziling said: "It seems that mother said, don't you believe in our beautiful master?" Kou Zhongdao: "Kung fu masters are always unpredictable, they can't teach people how much we weigh. So we'd better hide our strength, so that Master Meiren will not know that we have learned her bird crossing technique. If she really When they want to kill us, they also have a little more money to escape."

Xu Ziling nodded in agreement, looked towards the sea and said, "Look! Look!" A light appeared on the surface of the sea and quickly moved closer. A speedboat passed right and left between the reefs and came to the shallow water. The two of them gathered their eyes together, and the boat became clear immediately. They saw four big men holding the boat, and a young woman in a white dress stood at the bow, but it was not Yun Yuzhen. The girl jumped up, and the two came up to the two of them, and said respectfully: "Little servant Yunzhi, under the orders of the leader, Miss Yun Yuzhen, I am here to pick up the two young masters aboard." They didn't expect Yunyu to make such a move, they exchanged glances and followed Yunzhi to the boat. After boarding the three-masted ship, Yunzhi led the two of them to the main cabin, where they saw Yun Yuzhen sitting in one of the grand master's chairs. They sat down on the left and right, and Yunzhi retreated, leaving only the three of them. Yun Yuzhen smiled and said, "How's the training going?" Kou Zhong pretended to be ashamed and shook his head. Xu Ziling cooperated perfectly and sighed seamlessly: "If you are so angry and bloody as soon as you practice, then you dare to continue practicing." Yun Yu really couldn't hide her disappointment, she bowed her head and muttered for a long time before reluctantly saying: "Let's discuss it before you have finished your training." The two of them immediately understood that although Yun Yuzhen said it nicely, in fact, the lightness kung fu was passed on to them only to let them complete the task, and they couldn't help but feel lucky that they didn't tell the truth. Yun Yuzhen sighed again, and said: "Do you know why the Dongming faction let you go on board that day?" Kou Zhongdao: "They will come to Middle Earth every year to select some qualified boys to go back. Needless to say, they will come to be the husbands of those women, right?" Yun Yuzhen said: "You guys first tell what happened after boarding the boat that day, don't miss anything." Kou Zhong explained the matter in a few words, because the process at that time was only half a cup of hot tea. Yun Yuzhen frowned when she heard this, and said after a while: "This is really strange, why does Mrs. Dongming ask you these strange questions?" Xu Ziling said: "Need to say? Since we want to choose a son-in-law, we naturally want to find some ambitious guys. When we realized that we were just two people who were obsessed with money, they kicked us off the boat." Kou Zhongqi said: "Didn't you want us to steal their things? You might as well do it yourself, as long as they put away the hanging ladder, we won't be able to climb up." Yunyu said impatiently: "If there is any other choice, who will rely on you two boys. Now you are the only ones who can sneak into their 'Piaoxiang' in a big way." The two were astonished. Kou Zhong was surprised and said: "Master Beauty, did you make a mistake? I'm afraid we are the same as you, people who are not welcomed by Mrs. Dongming?" Yun Yuzhen said: "One time and another time, how can we say the same thing. Now you have made great contributions to the Dongming faction, Madam Dongming even sent four guardian fairies to look for you everywhere, but they couldn't find them!" The two boys immediately became proud, thinking of that beautiful little maid, their hearts immediately warmed up. Yun Yuzhen smiled and said: "Do you understand now? I will try to make them find you by chance, and then you will go to the 'Piaoxiang'." Xu Ziling said: "I haven't said what exactly we want us to steal!" Yun Yuzhen said indifferently: "Remember I said that every gang has their way to make a lot of money? The Dongming faction is best at making high-quality weapons, which are very famous in the Jianghu. The most famous more than a dozen magical weapons , and three of them came from their foundry in Ryukyu." Xu Ziling suddenly said: "So you want us to steal weapons." Yunyu said angrily, "Unless it is a magic weapon like Mo Xie, there is nothing to steal. What I want you to steal is a very important account book." The two were stunned. Yunyu Zhenxiu's eyes twinkled, and said: "This account book records the delivery records of weapons sold by the Dongming faction in recent years. Both the seller and the buyer have stamps and seals, listing the types and quantities of weapons. Yu Wenhua and ordered the Haisha gang to attack' Fragrance, for precisely this ledger." The two were at a loss when they heard it, and were puzzled. Yun Yuzhen said: "This involves a struggle within the imperial court. For example, if a certain minister secretly bought a large amount of weapons from the Dongming faction, then this account book will become ironclad evidence, allowing Yu Wenhua and Shangzuo that foolish emperor to overthrow the enemy ,do you understand?" Kou Zhongdao: "Master Meiren'er is not Yu Wenhuaji, why do you want to get this account book?" Yun Yuzhen said: "Don't meddle in my business. In short, steal the account book, and I will give you back the gold you promised. If you have the courage to try, I will have someone teach you how to do it while there are still more than ten days left." Do you understand the stealing technique?" There was a knock on the door, Yunzhi came to report: "There is a small boat chasing from behind, it must be Mr. Li." Yun Yuzhen blushed slightly and said angrily: "This bastard who disturbs people, let him come on board." After a pause, he continued: "Take these two boys to see Mr. Chen." Seeing that she was really happy for Mr. Li, the two of them felt very uncomfortable.Now they want to send the two boys away again, their self-esteem has been greatly hurt, and they angrily go with Yunzhi. After receiving Yun Yuzhen's order, Yunzhi took them to the corridor on the upper floor, came to a door, knocked on the door and said, "Mr. Chen! The two young masters are here." An old voice came out and said, "Let them come in!" Yunzhi pushed the door open and taught them to go in by themselves. When the two entered the room, they realized that the room was surprisingly large, filled with all kinds of locks, models of houses, and some tools with unknown uses, and many architectural patterns were nailed on the walls. It is a large factory located on a ship. A stooped old man with long beard was picking up a lock by the window and looking at them endlessly, without looking at them, he said in a hoarse voice, "Close the door!" Xu Ziling closed the door. The old man put down the lock and walked towards them, because he was half a head shorter than the two of them, he had to look up to see the two of them clearly, and said with a dry smile: "I heard that you have been stealing since you were young, ha! Hold out your hand and let me see." The old man stretched out his hand to hold their four hands left and right, and after a while he showed a look of surprise and said, "I have never seen better hands than yours, and there are as many as two pairs at once, ha! I, Mr. Chen There is a successor." Holding his hands behind his back, he walked away, stopped at the cabin window, stared out of the window and said: "If you want to steal something, in addition to a pair of dexterous hands, you also need to have quick wits to adapt to changing situations, and excellent architectural knowledge." Strolling back again, he called two people to a building model, and said: "This building is composed of ten courtyards of different sizes. If I want you to steal a piece of precious jade, how can you find it? " Seeing that the two were speechless, they triumphantly went to another model and said, "Do you recognize it?" Kou Zhong lost his voice: "Isn't this the mansion of the governor of Yangzhou?" Chen Laomou said: "It's Yuchi Sheng's kennel. In fact, it's not too difficult to steal things. If I want you to steal a secret file, after reading it, you should record all the things recorded in the file in your mind. If you have to put the file back to its original place, so that people don’t know that someone has read it, then in addition to having a strong ability, you also need a good memory. Oh! Are you literate?" Kou Zhong was really suspicious of Yun Yu, of course he wouldn't tell the truth, he said with shame: "How can we have a chance to go to school?" Chen Laomou said sympathetically: "It's no fault of you. Fortunately, you don't need to be literate at all for this mission." Leading the two of them to a wall picture on the left wall, he said: "This is the 'Piaoxiang' you have been to. The blacked-out place is a place we haven't figured out yet." The picture is a perspective view of the "Piaoxiang", but the main cabin below the deck is blacked out. Chen Laomou continued to explain, and the two also found it interesting, so they listened patiently and asked questions from time to time.At dawn, Yunzhi came to take them to the room near the bow of the promenade to rest. The two of them fell asleep and were not awakened until dusk. Two beautiful maidservants came to wait for them to bathe and dress them, and shaved their beards and combed their hair. When Yunzhi came to lead them to the cabin, she saw her eyes light up and said in surprise: "So you two You are so disrespectful, Young Master, you are so talented." Kou Zhong saw that she was pretty and lovely, leaned over his head and said: "How old is my sister, she seems to be about the same as us?" Yunzhi said angrily, "I'm always older than you guys. Come on!" She took the lead. Knowing that she looked down on him, the two exchanged expressions and eyes, and chased after her. When we arrived at the cabin, there was already a table of food and drink, only three seats, and a big man in a brocade robe sat in it. Shining is energetic, one can tell at a glance that he is a master with superb internal skills. The man was very polite, he stood up to welcome them and said: "I, Bu Tianzhi, the deputy head of the Jukun Gang, and the head of the Yun Gang have something to go to the shore, and asked Bu to take care of the two little brothers." The two of them couldn't see the beautiful master, and thought that she must have gone with that Mr. Li, and felt very disappointed, but they couldn't resist the temptation of food, and after a few words, they sat down and ate and drank. All unsatisfactory things are left behind. Bu Tianzhi never asked about their past.Kou Zhong fabricated it casually, and he seemed very satisfied with the deception. Before the banquet was over, Bu Tianzhi summoned someone to fetch a brocade box, opened the lid, and there was a beautiful booklet inside. The Dongming School logo was printed on the cover, which was the same style as the flag embroidered on the "Piaoxiang". The two looked at Bu Tianzhi in surprise. Bu Tianzhi did not speak, and turned to the first page, only to see that it was densely covered with words written in two colors of ink and cinnabar.One side is the type and number of weapons written in black ink, and the other is the number of vermilion silver yards, which are actually calculated in gold. The largest one is three thousand taels of gold, which is enough for an ordinary person to eat for more than ten lifetimes.There are also dates and delivery locations. The most shocking thing is that there are six words "Longxi Li Family No. 1" written on the top of the page, but there is no such thing as a monogram seal. Kou Zhong pretended to be confused and said: "It recognizes me, but I don't recognize them. What's written on it?" Bu Tianzhi turned to the second page, but it was blank. Bu Tianzhi turned back the first page, and said: "We asked the two little brothers to steal it. This is the account book. It looks like this when you open the first page. You have to keep it in mind, and don't make a mistake when the time comes." Xu Ziling tentatively pointed to the word "one" on Li Clan No. 1 and said, "I recognize this character as 'one', but I don't recognize the others. What exactly did you write?" Bu Tianzhi said: "Don't worry about what you write. The word 'one' just refers to the first page. I will show you one more time when you leave the ship." The two were even more skeptical, but then they wanted to learn his great stealing skills from Chen Laomou, they had no time to think about it, and sometimes they secretly practiced in the room. Five days later, they passed the mouth of the Yangtze River and stopped at the shore for four days, but the two were not allowed to go ashore.Then he set off for the north, and when he was having dinner, he realized that Yunyu had really returned, but Bu Tianzhi was gone. Yunyu is really in high spirits, she is so beautiful that she looks like she can shine.However, Kou and Xu both know that she has not confided in themselves, and they no longer have the beautiful longing for her at the beginning, because she is definitely not another Fu Junmao or Susu. Kou Zhong asked, "Where are we going now?" Yun Yuzhen said: "We are going north to Huaishui now, and then west to Zhongyang, and we will arrange your actions at that time." After staring at them for a long while, he said with a smile: "In two years, you will be majestic and handsome men. Now that you have shaved your beards and trimmed your hair, you are more airy than before. How old are you this year?" Kou Zhongdao: "I just passed eighteen, he is one year younger than me." Yunyu said happily: "I heard from Mr. Chen that both of you can learn all kinds of skills at once, and you have lived up to my expectations of you." Xu Ziling said: "If we really stole the ledger, how will we get out of that big ship?" Yun Yuzhen said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will teach you how to use the light signal to contact us, and then I will personally pick you up on the boat to ensure that it is very safe." Kou Zhongdao: "Dongming sent to Central Plains, why did they stay for so long?" Yun Yuzhen said: "Every three years, they go to Zhongyuan for a period of time to accept new orders and collect bills. As for weapons, there are ships responsible for transporting them. You don't need to pay attention to these." Xu Ziling asked, "Is there any new change in the situation outside?" Yun Yuzhen said indifferently: "Du Fuwei is still guarding Liyang firmly, and has repelled the Sui army several times. Dou Jiande has proclaimed himself the king of Changle four months ago, and his momentum is especially higher than that of Du Fuwei. Recently, several people have appeared , one is Xu Yuanlang, the other is Lu Mingyue, both of them are important figures in the martial arts. But in terms of commotion, they are not as good as Liang Shidu of the Yingyang faction and Liu Wuzhou. They are generals of the Sui Dynasty, so their uprising greatly weakened the power of the Sui Dynasty." Xuan sighed again and said, "These two people have a close relationship with the Turks. Liang Shidu has recently worshiped under the Turkic 'Wu Zun' Bixuan and became his disciple. With the intervention of the Turks, I don't know what to do with this endgame. Cleaned up." They remembered Liang Shunming, the son of Liang Shidu, and Shen Wushuang, the beautiful daughter of Shen Tianqun, and they were crazy about it for a while. Xu Ziling cared about Susu and asked about her master Zhai Rang. Yunyu really knew the situation well, and said calmly: "Zhai Rang and Li Mi are concentrating their forces and preparing to attack Xingluocang. If they succeed, the Sui Dynasty will be in danger. Zhai Rang, the leader, is the most powerful, but his popularity depends entirely on Li Mi, and sooner or later there will be problems." Then Qi said: "You seem to know a little bit about this?" Kou Zhongdao: "Du Fuwei told us." Both of them were worried about Susu, they hurriedly finished eating, and then went to learn art from Mr. Chen, and when they returned to the room, it was already midnight. The two pretended to go to bed on the couch and hid in the tent to discuss. Kou Zhongdao: "Our beauty master is beautiful, but his mind is not very good. He clearly uses us to steal things to harm people." Xu Ziling said: "It should be someone who threatens Li Clan as if he was threatening us. We won't be his accomplices, if we just slip away." Kou Zhong sighed: "Do you think I don't want to leave? The problem is that if Master Meiren is really hard-hearted and announces our whereabouts to the world, and even attaches a portrait of our dignity, then we will indeed be unable to move an inch, so we must Think of a proper escape plan." Xu Ziling said: "I really want to tell Mrs. Dongming everything, and ask her to take us to Liuqiu, but if I do this, I won't be able to avenge my mother." Kou Zhong interjected, "I can't see Brother Li and Sister Susu either." After the two were silent for a while, Kou Zhong said: "Have you noticed that the situation on the boat is a bit strange these days?" Xu Ziling nodded and said: "Since Master Meiren'er came back, the boat has suddenly become tense, and the course has changed from time to time. It seems that they are guarding against some kind of enemy." Kou Zhong patted his legs and said: "Yes! These people may be targeting us. For example, the Haisha Gang, or our father Du Fuwei, you can plant spies in other people, but others cannot use the same method Against you?" Xu Ziling smiled wryly and said, "What kind of trick is that? Give it to Dad and Han Pudi. I'd like to stay here. At least it's a trick to get polite hospitality." Kou Zhong said confidently: "The Shanren have their own tricks, so we used a trick of 'escape with death', as if someone killed someone, but in fact they escaped." Xu Ziling said dejectedly, "It's easy to say, but how can it be done?" Kou Zhongdao: "If it's elsewhere, or our kung fu is as useless as before, naturally we can't do it. But now we just need to cheat and fall into the sea, and then swell some blood, and then sneak out of the bottom of the sea. Everyone thought we were buried in the sea. Couldn't we be free again?" Xu Ziling said, "What about the blood?" Kou Zhong made a stealing gesture, and said with a smile: "We eat large pieces of chicken every day, so we know that there must be a lot of chickens in the dining room, understand?" Xu Ziling said in distress: "The problem is that we don't know when the enemy will come. If the blood is taken too early, it will condense into hard lumps. If hard chicken blood emerges when it falls into the sea, wouldn't it be laughing at other people's big teeth?" Kou Zhongdao: "We can make the chickens faint, this is a good trick of our chicken thieves, after stealing them back, we stuff them under the bed, if the enemy hasn't come yet, we will replace the other two chickens, this method must work." While Xu Ziling was still hesitating, Kou Zhong sat up and said, "It's time to try our lightness skills and Chen Laomou's stealing skills."
