Chapter 31 Chapter Thirty-one: Discussing Swords, Spraying Smoke, Exercising Special Skills, Returning Pearls and Leaving a Verse

Taoist Songshi "hummed" and said: "Do you know how powerful you are? If you want to compete with others, you can do it. Kowtow and admit defeat!" He only said that the other party was unable to match his sword skills, so he proposed to try other swordsmanship. .He can't allow the other party to mess around. Unexpectedly, the man in Tsing Yi said: "I don't know who is going to kowtow to whom? It's no good to talk big first! You can use whatever skills you have. What I mean is that while learning your sword skills, I will teach you again." The kung fu of listening to the wind and distinguishing instruments! Do you understand?"

Taoist Songshi sneered and said: "You can use hidden weapons as you please. I don't have time to talk to you!"At the time of talking, he has traveled to eight directions and stabbed nine swords in succession! The so-called "listening to the wind to identify weapons" in martial arts generally refers to the kung fu of receiving hidden weapons, so Taoist Songshi thought that the opponent wanted to release hidden weapons. Unexpectedly, the man in Tsing Yi sneered and said: "Is it only possible to use hidden weapons when listening to the wind? Well, since you still don't understand, I'll show you how to do it." He closed his eyes suddenly, only Receiving Taoist Songshi's lightning-fast sword moves by hearing!

Taoist Songshi's swordsmanship was hitting a tight spot, and he didn't expect the opponent to close his eyes suddenly, so of course he wouldn't stop.There were only a few "chi chi" sounds, and the man in green had a few holes in his clothes, and a large piece of hair was cut off.But he closed his eyes, under the sword technique of "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation", he was not injured. This skill of "listening to the wind and distinguishing weapons" is indeed commendable! Taoist Songshi said angrily: "Bai Sun Qing Tian, ​​why are you blind? Open your eyes, otherwise you are looking for death! Hmph, if you want to mess around, I'm not in the mood to fool around with you!"

You must know that Taoist Songshi has devoted all his energy to studying swordsmanship. He is not good at "listening to the wind and distinguishing weapons". I don't want to close my eyes and accompany the other party to "make a fuss".However, he is a master, and before the opponent opened his eyes, he also retracted the sword and did not continue to attack. The man in Tsing Yi laughed and said, "I won't force you to close your eyes, but I'm afraid you won't be able to 'look around' with me if you don't want to!" , Within a radius of several feet, it was like being shrouded in thick fog, and you couldn't see your fingers!It turned out that he had a special skill, he could store up the smoke inhaled in his belly and blow it out all at once.The smoke is not poisonous smoke, but it has made a "smoke screen".

In the thick smoke, I saw the light of the sword flickering, it was too late to say it, then it was soon, and suddenly there was a "ding dong", Taoist Songshi came out from the smoke, but his hands were empty, his long sword had already been knocked down by the opponent .The man in Tsing Yi laughed and said: "Offend, offend! Accept, accept! I don't need to kowtow to you, do I?" Satisfied, the man in Tsing Yi filled another pipe, puffing on it as if no one else was around, and was about to go back when he heard someone shout, "Slow down!" It was Lei Zhenzi, the leader of the Wudang faction who appeared on the stage!

The man in Tsing Yi let out a haha, and said, "It's really a blessing that the head of the Wudang faction is willing to teach you!" Lei Zhenzi said with a livid face, "My surname is Zhu! You guys are too deceitful. Do you dare to compete with me openly?" The implication is that his steward's use is just opportunistic. Kungfu is not a real skill. Zhu Shangfu said with a smile: "Sect Master Lei speaks seriously. If you make friends with martial arts, the winner is stronger. Each has its own style of fighting. How can it be considered a deception? We have already learned the Wudang School's mountain-suppressing swordsmanship. You should go back, please."

Lei Zhenzi sneered and said: "Nine palaces and eight trigrams swordsmanship, what my junior brother has used is only one out of ten. Even this one out of ten is not something your housekeeper can crack. Do you dare to speak out? Hehe, Jing A frog looks at the sky, a blind man touches an elephant. Ridiculous, ridiculous!" Zhu Shangfu knew that Lei Zhenzi was going to provoke him to fight, but he wanted to take Lei Zhenzi up again and said, "Master Lei, if you are determined to fight me, then please follow the example and win." Say it again, my servant!" According to the general martial arts rules, since the man in Tsing Yi has defeated Taoist Songshi, he has the right to fight again.

The man in Tsing Yi walked up and said with a smile: "Master has a life, so I have to give up my life to accompany the gentleman, and then accept the brilliant move of Master Lei. But there must be something to say, whether my style of play is fair or not, I don't know!" Lei Zhenzi wanted to avenge his junior brother first, and then fight Zhu Shangfu.Holding back his anger, he sneered and said: "It doesn't matter what you use, in short, I still use the sword technique of Jiugong Bagua Formation. If I can't defeat you within ten moves, I will kowtow to you!" As soon as this remark came out, even the disciples of the Wudang School were surprised.

The "Nine Palaces Bagua Formation" sword technique was researched by Taoist Songshi with his whole life. It was established only ten years ago. So far, he is the only one in the Wudang School who can master it. The few disciples he taught have not yet become masters.Although Lei Zhenzi is his senior brother, he has his own strengths in martial arts, and the disciples of the Wudang sect have never seen the master practice this set of sword skills.Moreover, Lei Zhenzi said that he was going to compete in swordsmanship, but he came out with both hands empty, without a sword on his waist.

The man in green thought to himself: "Within ten moves, I don't need to blow smoke, and you may not win me." He just fought against Taoist Songshi, and before he sprayed smoke, he had already fought beyond a hundred moves.So he smiled confidently: "Since this is the case, let's make a deal. If I lose to you within ten moves, I will also kowtow to you. Master Lei, please shine your sword!" Lei Zhenzi sneered and said, "Why use a sword to deal with you? Stop talking nonsense and move on!" As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned again.One must know that Lei Zhenzi once stated that he wanted to use the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" sword technique to defeat this man in Tsing Yi within ten strokes. As the head of his sect, of course he couldn't follow his words and use other tactics. up.But how can swordsmanship be achieved without a sword?

Zhu Shangfu is a very conceited person, like a master, there must be a servant, this man in blue is his housekeeper, he imitates his master in everything, apart from admiring his master all his life, he also has no respect for the heads of the various sects. Put it in his eyes.Hearing Lei Zhenzi's words, he felt furious, snorted and said, "Let's see how you can defeat me within ten strokes?" , and like a pen stamp, the small flower gun also has the tricks of the judge's pen. Lei Zhenzi yelled: "Good time, look at the sword!" I saw him pinching the sword formula with his hands, his fingers parallel to each other like a sharp edge, in an instant, he had walked in eight directions, "stabbing" out one move and nine moves!What's even better is that although his moves are lightning-fast and his moves are very complicated, the nine moves are clean and neat, and everyone can see clearly. It really is the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" that Taoist Songshi used just now Swordsmanship.The only difference is that he replaced the sword with his palm, and the stabbing of the sword became a finger poke. The man in Tsing Yi was taken aback, and hurriedly withdrew the cigarette stick to defend.Lei Zhenzi counted "one, two, three, four..." The moves became faster and faster, and for a moment, he saw his shadow in all directions, holding the sword formula and stabbing with parallel fingers!Wherever the finger pokes, there will be a "chi chi" sound!His internal energy is much deeper than that of his junior Taoist Songshi. This is his internal energy, which penetrates his fingertips and stirs the air.Just now Taoist Songshi used his sword to stab, but it was not as powerful as him.There are many martial arts experts in the field, and there is a thunderous sound! Zhu Shangfu couldn't help but nodded when he used four moves and thirty-six moves, praised the word "good", then smiled and said: "The Jiugong Bagua sword technique you used is indeed much better than your junior brother. , but it is a pity that there are still one or two flaws, and it is not perfect." Others admired Lei Zhenzi's internal strength, while Zhu Shangfu focused on his swordsmanship. Lei Zhenzi was startled secretly, and thought: "This man has great eyesight!" It turned out that although he didn't devote his whole life to studying this set of sword techniques like his younger brother, but because this set of sword techniques came from Wudang School's Zhenshan Sword Formation Come, Lei Zhenzi, as the sect master, of course knows more about the subtle changes of this sword array than his younger brother, so Taoist Songshi always asks his senior brother for advice whenever he encounters difficulties.In order to fulfill the name of his younger brother, he attributed all the credit for creating this set of sword techniques to his younger brother. He himself has never practiced this set of sword techniques in front of his disciples, but in fact he is much better than his younger brother.However, this set of swordsmanship replaces a sword array with one person, and the changes are too complicated. There are several key changes that Lei Zhenzi has not yet figured out. After Lei Zhenzi was startled, he thought to himself: "My junior brother and I have exhausted our minds for decades, but we haven't figured it out yet. Even if there are still flaws, forgive me, this surname Zhu will definitely not be able to crack it!" So he sneered and said: " Is that right? Just wait a moment, I'm going to ask you for advice soon!" As he spoke, his moves didn't slow down at all, and he continued to count: "Five, six, seven..." The man in Tsing Yi received the seventh move, he was already in danger, unable to parry, he was forced to repeat the old trick, and a big mouthful of thick smoke came out. But Lei Zhenzi was not comparable to his junior Taoist Songshi, the thick smoke sprayed by the man in green had no effect on him at all, the soles of his feet were still in the direction of the nine palaces and eight trigrams, and the moves in his hands did not change at all.As soon as the thick smoke was sprayed out, it turned into a column of smoke, curled into the sky, and disappeared with the wind in a blink of an eye!It turned out that although he didn't use the Kungfu of splitting the empty palm, the deep palm force was released silently along with the moves, like an invisible fan pushing thick smoke into the air. The man in Tsing Yi was puffing smoke, and his spirit was unavoidable. If it works, it's fine, but if it doesn't work, he panics and loses even faster. He only heard Lei Zhenzi just counting to the word "eight", and shouted: "Down!" !” The man in Tsing Yi really fell down in response.But instead of falling down all over, he knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times to Lei Zhenzi with "Boom, Boom, Boom". This move was quite beyond everyone's expectations. They didn't expect that the man in Tsing Yi actually kept his word, and he really kowtowed when he lost. How did everyone know that although this man in green had made a bet with Lei Zhenzi, if he lost within ten moves, he would kowtow, but now he is not willing to kowtow.It turned out that he had lighted the "Huantiao acupoint" on Lei Zhenzi's knee, and Lei Zhenzi's internal strength was just right, like waves, one wave after another wave, leaving a triple stamina.Just as the man in green was about to jump up, his knees became numb again and he knelt down. After three impacts on his acupoints, he couldn't help knocking his head three times. The heroes were both amused and astonished at the sight, and the laughter was mixed together.Zhu Shangfu suddenly said coldly: "Master Lei, you have defeated my servant. It's rare, rare! Alright, is your prestige enough?" A few cold words made Lei Zhenzi's face flushed, and he immediately replied tit for tat: "Beating a dog depends on the owner's face. I don't know that. But there are so many arrogant people in the world, if they don't punish them lightly, how can they be punished?" Can it appease public anger? Besides, if I don’t do this, I’m afraid I won’t be able to invite Your Excellency’s boss!” Zhu Shangfu said: "Let's not bicker, let me ask you, how will you compete with me?" Lei Zhenzi said: "Just now you said that my swordsmanship is quite flawed, I still use this swordsmanship to ask you for advice. Disciple, bring the sword!" The status of master and servant is different, Lei Zhenzi uses the real sword instead, because it is He thought to himself that he was empty-handed, and he was not sure of winning; secondly, he also expressed respect for the other party. Zhu Shangfu smiled slightly, and suddenly broke off a branch, used his palm instead of a knife, and cut it into a "small and exquisite" wooden sword, only about two feet long, like a toy sword commonly used by children. Lei Zhenzi looked at him with wide eyes, and Zhu Shangfu said with a smile: "Master Lei, you are welcome. To be honest, I want to ask you for advice. Please take a look at the 'Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation' sword I used. Is the law correct?" As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, and it was only then that Lei Zhenzi realized that the opponent wanted to use this wooden sword, and he used the Wudang School's Zhenshan sword technique to deal with him. Lei Zhenzi couldn't help being furious, and shouted: "It's unreasonable, how dare you tease me?" Before he finished speaking, Zhu Shangfu stabbed him with a sword, and still smiled and said: "I sincerely ask you for advice." , How do you say teasing? May I ask if this trick of 'Bafang Binfu' makes it right?" When he stabbed with this wooden sword, there was a chi-chi sound, and it really was the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" starting style. In an instant, he stepped on eight directions, and stabbed nine swords in a row! Lei Zhenzi knew very well, seeing that he was using such a strong and fierce sword, if he was stabbed by him, even with the magical power of body protection, he would not be able to resist it.At this time, he couldn't help parrying with the long sword in his hand. Every move in the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" swordsmanship is one move and nine moves, and no other swordsmanship in the world is as complicated as it.If both sides use this kind of swordsmanship, the weapons will definitely collide.Even though Zhu Shangfu was using a wooden sword, he did not dodge it, he saw Lei Zhenzi's sword rolling towards him like a horse, and with a ding sound, it touched his wooden sword. Lei Zhenzi is known for his internal strength, his strength penetrates the tip of the sword, and the sound of spring breeze and thunder is faint when he moves out.But it was strange to say that his sharp blade had already cut the opponent's wooden sword, but he couldn't cut it off.Zhu Shangfu's wooden sword seemed to be attached to his sword. With a flicker, it suddenly changed another move and nine moves, and said with a smile: "The second move 'Seven Stars Accompanied the Moon', but it's done like this. Is it?" Everyone was dumbfounded, except for a few famous martial arts masters with the highest abilities, no one could see the mystery of it, and wondered how the wooden sword could not be cut off. It turns out that Zhu Shangfu's internal strength has been trained to the highest level, even higher than Lei Zhenzi's.As soon as Lei Zhenzi made his sword move, he used the word "unloading" for the opponent to dissolve his internal force.The wooden sword fluttered like a piece of paper "pasted" on his sword. It swayed left and right with the wind of the sword, without any force. Although Lei Zhenzi's sword was sharp, how could he cut it off? Not only that, although the sword moves made by Zhu Shangfu's wooden sword are as light as catkins, but if Lei Zhenzi relaxes his mind a little, it will suddenly be as violent as a torrent, and suddenly press down.At this moment, how could Lei Zhenzi dare to underestimate the opponent's wooden sword? The two of them used the same sword technique, just like their senior brothers "dismantling their moves". Everyone gasped in disbelief when they saw it. Keep it in your heart, and use it as usual, without any mistakes. It's just that this cleverness, in today's world, I'm afraid no one can match it!" Unexpectedly, Zhu Shangfu's skills are not limited to this, so when the fourth move "Shoot Nine Suns", Zhu Shangfu suddenly smiled and said: "I have changed this move a little bit, please advise Master Lei!" All of a sudden, nine sword shadows appeared, all pointing at Lei Zhenzi's heart! Lei Zhenzi's shock was no small matter, it turned out that these nine moves were exactly what he and his junior had worked so hard on, but they hadn't figured it out yet.According to the original "Sword Formation", with this move, the nine long swords can kill and injure nine enemies at the same time, and each sword passes through the heart.But when he used it alone, Lei Zhenzi usually practiced with a wooden dummy, but he could only pass through six hearts at most. Now Zhu Shangfu has used this trick, and with a very wonderful technique, he can move the wooden sword like flying, and changed three of the nine moves of this move, which just closed the original flaw! Although what Zhu Shangfu used was a wooden sword, but with his kung fu, if he stabbed it, it would probably pass through the heart.Lei Zhenzi is worthy of being the head of the sect. At this moment when he was born, although he was shocked, he stepped on the Jiugong and Bagua directions in his busy schedule, and used three different body techniques in succession to avoid it, but the opponent used him. The door's swordsmanship attacked him, killing him to the point where he had no strength to fight back, and he was killed so badly that he was at home. It was only then that Lei Zhenzi realized that what Zhu Shangfu had said earlier was not lying, he could not only see the flaws in his swordplay, but he could also repair them seamlessly.As Lei Zhenzi, at this moment, he should throw his sword and admit defeat.But this set of swordsmanship is the lifelong painstaking effort of him and Taoist Songshi. Now that someone can repair his flaws, the surprise in his heart overwhelms his face. He gritted his teeth and thought, "I'd like to see if it's still possible." Are there any flaws?" Once he stabilized his footsteps, he immediately continued to make moves. Zhu Shangfu said with a smile: "My change of move, Master Lei thinks it's okay?" Lei Zhenzi said: "Very good, I admire! There are five more moves below, please teach them together." A disciple of the Wudang sect They didn't even realize that the sect master had missed a move, they couldn't help but looked at each other in shock after hearing this, some people thought their sect master was deliberately saying "ironical words". As Lei Zhenzi spoke, his swordsmanship did not slow down at all, and he used the "five six seven eight" four moves and thirty six moves in one breath.Zhu Shangfu dismantled the same moves, and said with a smile: "These four moves are very dense and flawless, and I admire them very much!" The most important moves of the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" swordsmanship are just nine moves and seventy-two moves, and in the blink of an eye, both sides have used the last move "Nine Nine Returning to Yuan". This move is the essence of the "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" swordsmanship. The nine movements are done in one go, and all the complicated changes are integrated in this move. It is really like a hundred rivers converging into the sea, and the Five Mountains Chaozong. It seems simple, but in fact it is extremely complicated . The victory or defeat depends on this last move, Lei Zhenzi concentrates on it, and uses what he has learned for decades in this move.What he used was a sword with a cold light, but when he hit the wounded place, the sword shadows all over the sky suddenly turned into a silver rainbow. The onlookers, even famous swordsmen like Zhong Zhan and Xin Yinnong, couldn't help but feel the same. He exclaimed in admiration: "It's a good trick to return ninety-nine yuan!" Just when everyone was dazzled, they suddenly heard a "ding dong", the cold light dissipated, the sword energy disappeared, and Lei Zhenzi's long sword flew out of his hand!Everyone didn't even see clearly, and they didn't know how he lost. Lei Zhenzi was at a loss, and seemed to be in a daze for a moment.But seeing him with his hands behind his back, his head bowed in thought, he seemed to be pondering an unsolvable mystery. Xin Yinnong, the head of the Qingcheng faction, is Lei Zhenzi's best friend. He knows that Lei Zhenzi has been conceited all his life, and he is afraid that after he suffers this setback, he will have a tragic result if he doesn't think about it for a while, so he came out to comfort him and said: "Brother Lei, Victory and defeat are commonplace..." Before Xin Yinnong could finish his sentence, Lei Zhenzi suddenly laughed and said: "There is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people. What is it if I lose to someone who is better than me? Hey, hey, I have been thinking about it for decades. It’s not a pleasure to suddenly solve an inexplicable problem! However, Mr. Zhu, it seems that you still have a flaw that hasn’t been repaired to perfection. Did you keep it on purpose? Or—” Zhu Shangfu replied solemnly: "This move is extremely complicated. There are only three flaws in your original sword technique, which is already very rare. To be honest, I can only fill in two flaws, and there is one more flaw that I can close." I haven’t figured it out, and it’s definitely not deliberately hiding my secrets.” Lei Zhenzi said: "If I use this stance in the sixth pose, step on the threshold, turn out of the Zhenfang, the tip of the sword stabs your Huantiao acupoint, and the hilt hits your Yuqi acupoint, you How to resolve it? Of course you can use the best acupuncture point closing technique to deal with it, but what I’m talking about is only the tricks, not the internal strength.” Zhu Shangfu laughed and said, "Then I have no choice but to admit defeat!" It turned out that Lei Zhenzi had worked hard in this way of swordsmanship after all, and after the opponent closed two loopholes for him, his inspiration was triggered, and he finally came up with a change to remove the last flaw in this way of swordsmanship .And this change was something Zhu Shangfu never thought of. Both of them are martial arts masters, and they are both crazy about martial arts.After this battle, Lei Zhenzi had modified his Zhenshan Sword to perfection, so he was naturally overjoyed. How could he care about the momentary victory or defeat?And Zhu Shangfu also felt sympathy for him, so the conversation after the war was quite like a friend discussing with each other. Seeing that Lei Zhenzi was so open-minded, Xin Yinnong was relieved. The problem of Lei Zhenzi's swordsmanship was solved, but another problem was placed before the heroes of the Mengshan Conference. Even Lei Zhenzi was defeated by Zhu Shangfu, so who will take up the battle? Xin Yinnong was going to volunteer himself, he is one of the four masters of martial arts swordsmanship, the other three are Tang Jingtian and his wife and Lei Zhenzi, with the "Xiaoyun sword technique" in one hand, which is as good as the Wudang school's "Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation" sword. Swordsmanship is neck and neck, and because of its long history, there is no flaw in the swordsmanship.Although it is slightly inferior to Wudang in terms of complex changes, it is still superior to Wudang in terms of purity and flawlessness.However, seeing that Zhu Shangfu defeated Lei Zhenzi quite easily, he thought to himself that he and Lei Zhenzi were brothers, even though he had never seen his "Xiaoyun Sword Technique" before, it might not be able to break it.But whether he can defeat the opponent, he is not sure in his heart. Xin Yinnong was hesitating to himself, when he saw an old monk with clear bones, wearing cassock and six-eared hemp sandals, had come out of the arena, pronouncing the Buddha's name, and said slowly: "Benefactor Zhu's martial arts are unrivaled, this old monk is not I want to compete with the benefactor, but I want to dispel this turmoil, so I want to ask the benefactor for advice." When the old monk said this, everyone in the audience was shocked.It turned out that this old monk was Venerable Fa Hua, a highly respected elder of the Emei Sect in the martial arts world. Venerable Fahua is a disciple of Venerable Jin Guang, the great master of martial arts of Senior Emei, and Venerable Jin Guang's unique martial art - Taiqing Qigong was passed on to this disciple only.There are four outstanding figures in today's venue: one is Gu Zhonglian as the master; the other is Zhong Zhan of Tianshan School; people.Among the four, Venerable Fahua was the oldest one, and was the chief in the meeting of heroes. Master Fahua's words were neither humble nor overbearing, and fully demonstrated the compassionate heart of the monks.You must know that Zhu Shangfu said beforehand that if no one can beat him, the contest must continue, otherwise it cannot be regarded as the end, and he is not responsible for returning Lin Daoxuan.Originally, with Master Fahua's status, he should be the last to appear on the stage, but Zhu Shangfu is so powerful in martial arts, Master Fahua was afraid that he would be injured if he fought against other heroes, so he would rather take the risk of being defeated and come out first. Zhu Shangfu knew his status, so he didn't dare to be overly proud.After returning the salute, he said: "The master is an eminent monk in the world, and his Buddhist martial arts are all admirable. It is too late for the rest of my life, and I have no chance to benefit from my master Jin Guang. Now I have to ask the master for inner strength and mental methods." As soon as this remark came out, the audience was shocked again.Zhu Shangfu said frankly in these few words that he wanted to compete his internal strength with Venerable Fahua. Master Fahua's Taiqing Qigong is miraculous, mysterious and unfathomable, and everyone in the martial arts world respects it.Now, as soon as Zhu Shangfu opened his mouth, he was going to compete with Venerable Fahua in terms of internal strength, which was just like he was going to compete with Lei Zhenzi in the sword competition just now, and they only chose the kung fu that the other party was best at!How can the heroes not look at each other and be surprised?He thought to himself: "If this person is not extremely arrogant, then he really has supernatural powers, even more unfathomable than Venerable Fahua." Venerable Fahua Heshi said: "The benefactor Zhu has an order, and the old monk should accompany him. How should we compare, and ask the benefactor to show the way." Zhu Shangfu drew a circle with his feet as an axis, and said, "Originally, there are two ways to compare the internal strength, the literary competition and the martial arts competition. The method I plan to use now is between the two. Let's compete in this circle." Palm strength, whoever gets out of the circle first will lose. But once out of the circle, the opponent can't pursue." It turns out that the competition of internal strength is the most dangerous thing.There are tricks in the competition of swordsmanship, but in the competition of internal strength, it is all based on strength, the stronger one wins, the weaker one loses, there is absolutely no chance of luck.Therefore, most of the competitions of internal strength have always used text comparisons.The so-called "Wen Bi" refers to the competition of borrowing objects without touching the other party's body, for example, each uses palm strength to crack a stele and a stone.If a martial arts contest is used, the losing party will inevitably be in danger of life. Now the method Zhu Shangfu proposed is actually a martial contest, but he stipulated that after leaving the circle, the opponent cannot pursue him, which can reduce the danger a bit, which is a bit different from pure martial contest. The heads of several sects felt a little relieved after hearing Zhu Shangfu's words, and thought: "It seems that this person just wants to make a name for himself, and he is not a vicious person." Although I have great confidence in Master Fahua's internal strength, I can't help worrying that he is old. If something happens to him, it will be irreversible.However, as Venerable Fahua, even if there is no fear of life, victory is not allowed to be defeated.If it fails, not only will the Emei faction lose face, but the martial arts heroes in the Central Plains will also feel ashamed.So everyone still watched this competition with trepidation. Venerable Fahua said: "Respectfully follow the order of the benefactor." He and Zhu Shangfu walked into the circle at the same time, faced each other, sat down cross-legged, and pressed their palms together to compare their internal strength. Zhu Shangfu first launched an offensive to test the opponent's reality.Venerable Fahua lowered his head and closed his eyes, as if sitting in meditation, without moving.Zhu Shangfu's internal force attacked, and he hardly felt the opponent's resistance.Zhu Shangfu gradually strengthened his internal strength, and after adding it to six or seven points, he began to feel the opponent's internal strength, but it was extremely gentle.Just like a calm lake, when stones are thrown down, there are only a little ripples. Zhu Shangfu thought to himself: "Taiqing Qigong, using softness to overcome rigidity, is indeed very important. It seems that I will not be able to give out the full copy." Zhu Shangfu wanted to win, and when he got lucky with his Xuan Gong, he fully exerted all his palm strength, and suddenly he came like an overwhelming mountain.Venerable Fahua still sat with lowered eyebrows, his face was full of kindness, and he seemed to have no special feelings.I saw that the cassock he was wearing was like a full sail, but his body remained motionless. Zhu Shangfu was secretly startled, and his palm tightened even more.When his internal strength was brought into full play, hot white air rose above his head, like a light mist, covering both of them in a blink of an eye. Seeing this situation, more than a dozen first-class masters in the arena all said that Master Fahua had the upper hand, even Bai Yingjie, the elder of the Mangshan School, thought the same way, and said to Gu Zhonglian happily: "After all, it is the old Zen master who has profound skills. Look at it." There is no need for the sect leader to take action." Gu Zhonglian frowned slightly, and replied: "I hope so." Bai Yingjie was very surprised, and when he looked carefully, he realized that Master Fahua's two eyebrows were more tightly knitted than Lian Guzhong, and there was still a faint greenness between the brows.This is a sign that "Taiqing Qigong" has been exerted to the extreme.However, this only shows that both sides are competing with all their strength, and it has not been possible to distinguish which is better. At this time Master Fahua was also secretly surprised, it turned out that Zhu Shangfu's internal energy is extremely strange, he can release nine layers of internal energy in a row, just like a raging sea, one wave after another, endless, endless There is no rest, and the opponent is never allowed to have a chance to rest. Fahuashang's popularity sinks the dantian to defuse the internal force of the opponent's impact.But he is old after all, not as good as in his prime, and the struggle of internal energy is the most exhausting. After a long time, he gradually feels powerless, so he has to try his best to use the magical effect of Taiqing Qigong, using softness to overcome rigidity, only defending but not attacking. The abbot of Shaolin Temple, Zen Master Dabei, and the famous teacher of Tianshan School, Zhong Zhan, both saw that something was wrong, Zhong Zhan said: "If this goes on, both sides will suffer." Dabei Shan Master knew his intentions and said: "After a while, if Brother Fahua refuses to withdraw from the circle, maybe the two of us will have to let the other party ridicule us, and we will separate them together." Under the splendor, no matter whether it is Zen Master Dabei or Zhong Zhan, it is difficult to separate the two masters in the field with only one person's strength, so they have to join forces. Venerable Fahua is an eminent monk who has achieved the Tao, and he takes personal honor and disgrace very lightly. His refusal to withdraw from the circle and admit defeat is not for the sake of face, but because he wants to suffer internal injuries. In the next match, it would not be difficult to defeat Zhu Shangfu in one fell swoop. But Zhu Shangfu didn't want to lose both sides. He came here this time with lofty ambitions, intending to defeat all the heads, elders, and top figures in the martial arts.Now he has only defeated Lei Zhenzi, the leader of the Wudang sect, and even if he defeats the elder Fa Hua of the Emei sect, it will still not be enough for him. At this time, although Zhu Shangfu had the upper hand, Master Fahua's resilience was beyond his expectation.Zhu Shangfu thought to himself: "It's not difficult to defeat this old monk, but I'm afraid it will take an hour. I have to fight many masters, so I can't waste my internal strength too much for him alone." The white air above Zhu Shangfu's head was getting thicker and thicker. Seeing this situation, Zen Master Dabei and Zhong Zhan knew that he was stepping up the power of his inner strength. They were afraid that Master Fahua would not be able to resist, and they were secretly on guard, waiting for a moment of sleep. If it was not good, he immediately appeared on the stage to separate them. Just as the audience was watching with bated breath and everyone was nervous, they suddenly heard Zhu Shangfu laughing, and saw that he and Master Fahua stood up at the same time, holding hands, and stepped out of the circle at the same time !It seems that there is already a tacit understanding, otherwise they would never be able to keep pace like this, and it is difficult to distinguish the order. The heroes were amazed.Several masters and elders with the highest martial arts skills were puzzled at first, but after a closer look, they found that there was a circle of sunken marks where Master Fahua sat cross-legged; and where Master Zhu Shangfu sat cross-legged , there is no change.According to this situation, strictly speaking, in the competition of internal strength between the two, Master Fahua had already lost a bit, but according to the rules set by Master Zhu himself, if the two walked out of the circle at the same time, it could only be regarded as a tie. It turned out that Zhu Shangfu didn't want to procrastinate for a long time and waste too much energy, so he used the best mystic skills to play a magical effect of the word "sticky", sucking the opponent's palm tightly, pulling Master Fahua up, and walking out at the same time. Circle of.This is also Zhu Shangfu's cleverness. You must know that Master Fahua is the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts. If Zhu Shangfu competes to the end, even if he wins, he will inevitably hurt Master Fahua. Isn't it to arouse public outrage in martial arts?Now he accepts it as soon as he sees it, which not only saves the face of Master Fahua, but also preserves his own strength, killing two birds with one stone, which is much better than defeating Master Fahua. The two walked out of the circle, Zhu Shangfu let go of his hand, and said with a bow: "Old Master Shan has exquisite internal skills, Zhu is lucky to draw a tie, so there is no need to compete anymore, right?" Of course Venerable Fahua knew that the other party let him, he was a righteous person, how could he not tell the truth?Immediately returned a salute, He Shi said: "The donor's peerless magical skills, I admire him so much, I am willing to bow down." This statement is clear, it is to admit that the opponent has won. The heroes looked at each other in blank dismay, speechless.But the Emei disciples also breathed a sigh of relief. Although their elders conceded defeat, they were not injured, which is a blessing among misfortunes.And since they stepped out of the circle at the same time, it would not be embarrassing to lose. However, Zhu Shangfu has already won two games in a row, and even Master Fahua, who has extremely deep internal skills, is willing to admit defeat. Who should resist him in the next game?There are only three masters in the same rank as Venerable Fahua, Ren Guzhong, Zhong Zhan and Zen Master Dabei. Gu Zhonglian thought in her heart: "Zhan Master Dabei is too senior, it is not appropriate to let him take the risk of defeat; Zhong Daxia's ability is estimated to be enough to deal with this devil, but he is a guest, so it is not appropriate to alarm him as a last resort. .” Gu Zhonglian was about to end, but her uncle Bai Yingjie whispered beside her: "You are the head of our faction and the host of the conference. Now the opponent has only won two games, so you will go out yourself, um, This, this... isn't it to teach the other party to laugh at us that there is no one here? I think it's better to ask Hero Zhong to subdue this devil." Tanaka Ren sighed and said, "It's a pity that Haitian is not here. I'd better go out." She thought to herself that she was not sure of winning, but she didn't want to pass the difficulty on to others. The heroes are yet to be discussed, but Shangfu Zhu has already said loudly: "I have heard that Emei Shaolin is the Taishan Beidou of martial arts. Now that I have learned the profound martial arts of Master Fahua, I intend to ask Master Dabei about the peerless magic skills of Shaolin Temple." !" He didn't wait for the heroes to push someone out, and first challenged the abbot of Shaolin Temple by name. Great Compassion Zen Master Heshi said: "Good, good! The benefactor Zhu praised it. Fortunately, Shaolin Temple has received the shadow of the ancestors of the past generations, and has passed down 72 unique skills, but the poor monk is stupid, and he has not gained much. The four characters of 'peerless magic' The poor monk is ashamed, and if given the opportunity, the poor monk is also willing to ask the masters of the world for advice." Zen Master Dabei had already accepted the opponent's challenge, and it was too late for Ren Yanaka to stop him.This moment was even more shocking than just now. One must know that although Chan Master Dabei is a few years younger than Venerable Fahua, as the abbot of Shaolin Temple, his status is higher than Venerable Fahua.Although Shaolin, Emei, Wudang, and Mengshan are called the four major sects of the Central Plains, Shaolin Temple has a history of more than a thousand years, but it is the head of all sects.The abbot of Shaolin Temple has always been regarded as the leader of the martial arts. There was a commotion in the field, and then it calmed down, so quiet that you could hear a needle drop to the ground.Everyone was paying attention, wanting to hear how Zhu Shangfu drew his way. Zhu Shangfu said slowly: "The old Zen master is being too polite. Zhu, a mountain scumbag, dare not be rude in front of eminent monks. I just want to ask the old Zen master to show off the superior martial arts of Shaolin Temple, so that the mountain scumbag can open his eyes." The meaning of these words is to "compare" with Zen Master Dabei, each perform their own unique skills, and let the heroes of the world judge who is stronger and who is weaker. But there are as many as seventy-two unique skills in Shaolin Temple, which one can best represent the profound martial arts of Shaolin Temple? 众人正都在心里猜想，只见大悲禅师已走出场心，说道：“好，施主有命，那么贫僧就先献拙了。”取下了一串牟尼珠，这串牟尼珠比普通和尚的念珠长得多，共有三百六十颗，只见他把手一扬，登时便似洒下满天珠雨！ 这一边大悲禅师以“天女散花”的手法，洒出了三百六十颗牟尼珠，转瞬之间，在那一边三丈多高的石壁上忽地现出十二个大字，在阳光下闪闪发亮，耀眼生缬。 原来这十二个大字就是大悲禅师那三百六十颗牟尼珠嵌在石壁之上，砌出来的！ 牟尼珠虽然不是很易破碎之物，但倘若是用力摔在石上，也会碎裂的。如今这三百六十颗珠子居然都嵌入了石中，无一碎裂，而且还砌出字来！这是何等功力！何等眼界！大悲禅师所抖露的这一手，可说是把少林寺最上乘的内功与最高明的暗器手法熔于一炉，表露无遗了！ 群雄倘若不是亲眼看到，恐怕谁也不相信世间竟有如此神奇的武功。在全场的人都目瞪口呆的片刻之后，登时发出了震撼了山谷的喝彩声。 众人惊奇稍定之后，细看那石壁上佛珠砌出的字句，这十二个大字，排成了四行四个短句：“斩无明、断执着、起智慧、证真如。” 这十二个字可说是包含了全部上乘佛理。佛家认为人的“无明之火”，是由贪、瞋、痴三念构成，痴即“执着”，又是三念中最根本的“烦恼之源”，故所以佛家的修为要讲究先“祛心魔”，亦即是要斩了“无明”，斩了“执着”之后，一个人才能生出大智大慧，终于达到了彻悟真理的境界。这境界亦即“真如”。 谷中莲曾研读过佛经，懂得这“佛偈”的含义，心中暗暗赞叹：“大悲禅师不但是抖露了上乘武功，而且是藉机点化这魔头了。” 群雄的注意力却集中在武功的较量上，要看竺尚父还能使出什么功夫可以胜得过大悲禅师这手“佛珠烃嵌”的神功？ 只见竺尚父背负双手，如有所思，一步一步地走到那峭壁之下。 在全场注目之下，竺尚父合什躬身，拜了一拜，说道：“老禅师禅机妙理，竺某拜领嘉言。” 这几句话说了之后，只听得呼呼风响，珠光闪烁，石壁上的佛珠忽地都飞了出来，宛如繁星点点，从天而降，转眼间都落到竺尚父手中，给竺尚父又串成了一长串的佛珠，恢复了原来形状！ 竺尚父捧着这串佛珠，走到大悲禅师面前，恭恭敬敬地说道：“老禅师这串牟尼珠弃了可惜，也令竺某不安。拜领嘉言，奉还佛珠。请老掸师恕我狂妄之罪，鉴谅我的心迹。”正是： How about knowing the future?Please listen to the breakdown next time.
