In the wilderness of thousands of miles along the east coast, there is a river, which runs all the way through the mountains and gorges, and flows into the sea. At the mouth of the sea, a tidal flat plain with a radius of 100 miles is formed. At that time, no one cultivated this hundred miles of fertile wilderness, because the wild tribes distributed in this area did not know how to farm, and only lived by hunting.

The plains are also uninhabited, one because of the strong sea breeze, and the other because they live in low places, which is inconvenient for hunting in the mountains.

On this day, the sea is calm and the sun is warm. On the beaches in this area, there are natives in twos and threes, dressed in animal skins, or holding stone spears, or making stone shovels, digging sand on the sand and looking for snails. There are also some teenagers, already a strong and agile body, standing at the water's edge, holding a stone spear on the side of their face, the tip of the spear pointed, following the eyes. They remained motionless, concentrating on the water, but when they saw a fish swimming near, the stone spear immediately flew out like an arrow, almost hitting a hundred shots.

The women, children, and elderly people who dig snails have filled the containers woven with bamboo and rattan, and the young fishers have also harvested a lot. But among these people, there was not a man of young man.

The young men of the tribes should have taken advantage of the last days before the onset of winter to go into the mountains to hunt and store meat for their people to survive the long and harsh winter. However, Qingzhuangmen did not form a team to hunt in the mountains at this time, and the women and children and the old people took advantage of the calm and sunny weather to come out to hunt for snails and fish, in fact, it can only be an expedient measure. Snails cannot be left for a long time and can only be eaten for a short period of time. Fish can be dried and stored, but it is not much to get enough to keep the tribe through the winter. This winter in the seaside barbarian tribe, I don't know how many people will starve to death.

Dozens of days ago, the northerner emperor Fuxi led a large army to the south to fight and unify the southern barbarian tribes. The Barbarian Witch King was able to recruit young people of all races, and now he is gathering on the Qingji Plain to confront and fight hard against the northern army.

From the seashore along the river to the northwest swim up, all the way to the mountains and ravines, layers of forests. At 600 miles, there is another plain called Aokihara. Qingjiyuan is not as open and wide as the coastal plain, but it is the confluence of two rivers and is surrounded by green mountains on all sides. On three sides are high gorges and steep mountains, and the veins of thousands of miles pass by, surrounding the plain and stretching again. Only the south side of Aokihara is the Fulu Mountain, which is relatively gentle, with fertile soil and dense forests.

The south of this area to the coast of the South China Sea is the land of the southern barbarian mountains. In the deep mountains and ravines of the wilderness, hundreds of ethnic groups live together, and they are headed by the witch king Du Neng (1).

The Witch King has a bull-headed human face, is wearing a Lin armor, holding a magic staff, the god is majestic, leading the tribes of the Yueling Mountains to be young and strong, with their backs against the Servant Deer Mountain, and the formation of the Vermilion Bird Surveying the Sky is on the Qingji Plain, facing the north to wait for the battle.

On the opposite side of the Yueling barbarian array, the soldiers of the Central Plains tribes led by the northerner Emperor Fuxi came to fight against the Wuwang barbarians. I saw the northerners lined up with turtles and snakes entangled in the array, their morale was high, and their cries shook the sky. The head of the Fuxi people is the body of the snake, and the male soldiers are led to make a long snake spit letter array, and the snake head is far away from the main array, making a momentum; Nuwa sits in the formation, and leads the female soldiers to line up the formation of the turtle, and the long snake is entangled and guarded.

From the topography point of view, the Southern Barbarian Witch Army of Degree Neng has the advantage. Backed by Fulu Mountain, occupy the advantage. Moreover, the Fulu Mountain is gentle and the terrain is complex, even if it is defeated, there is still a lot to be done by relying on the geographical advantages. The northern army was backed by a large river, coupled with the low terrain, and was in a situation of fighting against the water.

The formation of the northern and southern armies is a bit strange, and it stands to reason that the normal army formation is like this, and it is definitely not here to kill the enemy, but to send heads to the enemy to make up for the battle achievements. But at this time, the two armies were listed, which were both military formations and legal formations. It has no long-range offensive weapon, and uses mana to attack in groups before hand-to-hand combat, which can determine victory or defeat more than a powerful fighting formation.

There are seven formations in the turtle and snake formation of the northern army, which are arranged according to the northern Xuanwu fight, bull, female, void, dangerous, room, and wall. Fu Xi mobilized the formation pivot, and the long snake came out of the main formation, with great momentum, and attacked the barbarian army to the south, rolling up the wind all the way, flying sand and stones, and it was unstoppable.

I saw that the Southern Barbarian Witch Soldiers were still in formation, waiting for the enemy to arrive. Wait for the northerners to work nearly a hundred steps. The witch king can suddenly raise the staff, the head of the staff points to the sky, and there are words in his mouth, such as a beep, like a crane; after the spell is completed, the staff swings in a circle, and then strokes back into the circle and points directly to the Fuxi snake formation.

There are also seven formations in the barbarian Suzaku array, which are arranged according to the southern Suzaku Well, Ghost, Willow, Star, Zhang, Wing, and Zhenqisu. Each of the seven arrays has seven shamans to temperate. The seven wizards can see the ability to wave their staffs and mobilize the formation pivot, and the Vermilion Bird Array moves according to the situation, as if spreading its wings to survey the sky.

The mana in the Vermilion Bird Formation was great, and it ran through the sky, only to see that the blue dome suddenly changed color, and a red cloud rolled with the Witch King's staff, surging in front of the Northerners Array. The red cloud emitted a red light, and the light converged and transformed into a swirling bird, spitting real fire from its mouth, and spraying straight towards the seven inches of the long snake. Seeing this, the northerners were terrified, and their formations were suddenly chaotic and they retreated one after another.

Nuwa threw a colorful strange stone into the sky, only to see the five-colored essence, directly hitting the Vermilion Bird star wings. Suzaku was attacked, the fire immediately decreased, and the formation of the long snake stabilized again.

Fu Xi faced each other up and down with his hands in front of the formation, alternately drawing circles. The generals of the various formations in the turtle and snake formation hurriedly mobilized the magic array, cooperated with the main general, and used the evil spirit of the military formation to help the main general cast spells.

I saw that the arc in Fu Xi's hand was full of void true water and a blue glow swirling, and the gesture became faster and faster; suddenly the palms of both palms were together, and the palm fingers were stretched out, and they were pushed out to the Southern Barbarian Witch Array; a piece of blue glow and a water dragon circled out, and the water dragon directly hit the fire spit out from the mouth of the Vermilion Bird, and it was instantly extinguished. Lan Ying rolled and scattered on the spot, burning all the way towards the enemy formation, and the barbarian formation was in chaos.

The northerners rushed forward, and at this time, the north and south two formations had been connected. The barbarian soldiers of the Southern Army resisted bloodily, and the soldiers would fight each other, suffering heavy casualties. Seeing that the victory and defeat were inseparable, the north and the south each withdrew their troops and boycotted the war. In this more than 10 days of fighting, more than half of the two sides had been killed or wounded, corpses were strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed from the field; the soldiers were exhausted and the people's hearts were scattered.

Seeing that the northern army had not achieved success for a long time, it temporarily stopped fighting, and only formed a formation to hold on to the southern army day and night. Wu Wang Du could see that the northern army was strong and invincible for a long time, and he was also very cautious, and he only relied on the situation of the Servant Deer Mountain to defend it.

After holding each other for more than a month, Du Neng had the intention of retreating, but he was afraid that Fu Xi would take advantage of the situation to sneak attack, so he was indecisive and irritable. I don't know that this has been more than a month, but in fact, Fu Xi is not in the northern army formation at all, and he has long since disappeared, leaving only his wife Nuwa to sit in the formation and bluff.

The two armies on the Qingji Plain faced each other, and the water was in dire straits, and thousands of miles away, on top of the thousand-year-old snow of Kunlun, a serpentine trace meandered from south to north. Where the body of the Fuxi snake passed, the snow turned into water, leaving deep marks. He swam in this ice and snow for more than a month, and no one knows how many hardships he endured during this time.

In the middle of a snowy day, the wind was howling. Suddenly, the haze in the sky dissipated, and the wind and snow stopped. A clear blue sky light descended, covering a lonely peak in the middle of the reckless mountains.

After the light disappeared, I saw the human emperor Fuxi appear between the mountain walls. As soon as his body moved, he fell sharply, and as soon as he touched the ground, his body flew out sideways, drifting away to the southeast, as fast as a meteor.

A few days later, before Fu Xi put his hands behind his back and walked out of the army alone, he said to the Nanban camp under the Fulu Mountain: "Du Neng, the two armies have been fighting for a long time, and there is no distinction between victory and defeat. And the soldiers are tired, with heavy casualties, and there is no need to hold on to each other, adding casualties in vain. Now what you hold is only the magic power of the witch, it is better for you and me to go out to duel alone, and the defeated will lead the people to surrender and accept the control of the other party. If you surrender, you will still be the king of the south, but you should be educated among the tribes, and the Chinese system will be established, and you will be supervised by the emperor. ”

Fu Xi's tone of voice was as usual, not high-pitched, but his voice came from afar, and everyone in the southern army formation could hear it clearly. The Southern Barbarian Army was so moved that they did not want to fight again.

Du can see that the tribe's army is like this, and he doesn't want to increase casualties, so he jumped out of the crowd, his feet did not touch the ground, and flew to Fuxi.

The two stood opposite each other, standing tall as a mountain. The armies of the north and south were silent in an instant, and all the soldiers would concentrate on the field, for fear of missing any wonderful moment of the battle between the two gods.

However, Fu Xi and Du Neng stood for a long time, but they just looked at each other, and they never moved. The longer the two leaders confronted each other, the more worried the generals became, wondering what the danger of victory or defeat would be when the two kings really went to war.

On the green migahara, it seemed that even the air had condensed around the two of them. However, in the realm of Fuxi and Duneng's divine consciousness, it was a different scene.

I saw that Du Neng waved his staff, setting off a black wind that swirled and wrapped around him. The black wind swirled more and more rapidly, whirring, covering Du Neng's body, and then rose into the sky. Du Neng's body also turned into a black wind and followed, swirling far away in a dense forest under the Fulu Mountain.

The black gas disappeared, and a roar suddenly came from the dense forest, followed by a dense rushing sound, which was so huge that it shook the heavens and the earth.

Fu Xi stared intently, and an ancient borage rhinoceros with a body as majestic as a hill rushed out of the dense forest, with a long single horn on its head, and rushed towards the place where he stood. I saw that the single horn was not the usual gray-black, but white as jade, sharp as a spear.

The borage rhinoceros flew in, and saw that the long sharp horns were about to penetrate through the body of Fuxi. At this time, Fu Xi, even if he could avoid his one-horned puncture, it would be difficult to avoid his huge body.

Fu Xi was not in a hurry, and started leisurely, raising his hands between his chest and abdomen. As the borage rushed towards him, he sat down slightly, avoiding the single horn that came through him, and his hands arced in front of him with the momentum, gently sticking to the thick neck of the borage. I saw that he suddenly turned around slightly, and the huge body of the borage rhinoceros actually rose from the ground, flew out horizontally, and flew straight out several zhang away before rolling down the dust and raising a gray mist.

The borage rhinoceros was not injured, but the fall was abnormally painful, and when he slowly got up, he turned back into Du Neng real body. He stabbed his staff, barely standing upright. He didn't understand that with his boundless mana, he had an advantage in fighting with Fu Xi at the beginning, if it weren't for the other party's Nuwa help, how could he be his opponent. And Fang was hit by a slight shake of his hands, and he actually rolled down the dust, I don't know the depth of his skill!

Fuxi won, but he didn't take advantage of the situation to attack, but still stood in place and waited. Du Neng was not convinced, so he took a breath on the spot and stepped forward to fight again.

This time, instead of turning into a spirit beast, he raised his staff forward with his right hand, the tip of the staff trembled, and he drew a strange spell with the power of divine thoughts; If you had changed to an ordinary opponent, you would have been unstable at this time.

However, Fu Xi is like an infallible man, standing with his chest and back, connecting the sky and the earth, and never moving.

Du Neng recited the magic formula, and his whole body trembled, like a god and a ghost possessed. The fissures in the earth grew deeper and deeper, and the cracked earth was now reduced to patches of mud, suspended in the bottomless void. The mud fell into the void one after another, and there was no support under Fuxi's feet.

However, Fu Xi did not fall with it, he sat down and started walking, his body hanging in the void and slowly spinning and "dancing". In Du Neng's view, it is a simple and generous "dance". Walking lightly, as a vertical axis, the hand out of the arc, such as flowing clouds, chic and free. Fu Xi's figure seemed to have been integrated into the Xuandao Qi Machine with the dance steps, and then he saw that the Heaven and Earth Qi Qi was affected by it, and the power of evil was turned into his own use.

He didn't directly break through the illusion of energy, but he dissolved it invisibly. Seeing that he had not been able to defeat the enemy after such hard work, he gritted his teeth and was determined to sacrifice his life and fight to the death.

He swung his staff, opening and closing in an arc. In the cracks in the earth, crystal clear and transparent giant tendons flew out of the criss-cross. Countless giant tendons curled and bent with the swing of the Degree Staff, turning into a huge net of heaven and earth towards Fuxi.

Fu Xi was unmoved, he sighed, and with a wave of his left hand, a mist floated out and quickly dispersed in all directions. Where the mist touched, the giant tendons disappeared in an instant. The gap in the net of heaven and earth opened, as if there was an invisible and colorless fire, which spread rapidly, and all the huge tendons disappeared in the blink of an eye. The mist waving by Fuxi also disappeared invisibly.

Du Neng was no longer able to cast it at this time, put away the spell, stood in place, but said very unconvinced: "I can't defeat you, but you are on the defensive, and you don't necessarily have any real skills." ”

Fu Xi was silent, grabbed his right hand in the air, and the staff in Du Neng's hand suddenly came out of his hand and flew into his hand. Fu Xiyang threw the staff far away. The staff flew in mid-air, and before it landed, it suddenly turned into a cloud of dust, drifting away with the wind, and there was no trace of it.

Fu Xi said: "If I strike, this staff will be your end." Since I said that this battle is only about victory and defeat, and life and death are not decided, I don't have to make a move. ”

Du Neng was willing to admit defeat, bow to the ground, and was willing to lead all the barbarian tribes to be controlled by the emperor. In the eyes of the onlookers of the two armies, Fu Xi and Du Neng just stood for a long time, and they didn't even move, and they saw Du Neng kneeling and being unified, and they both looked very inexplicable.

After receiving the unification, when everything is arranged, I can take the time to come to the shrine. After the ceremony, he asked Fu Xi: "I am an acquired body, but I am fortunate to have the innate spiritual power, which is already the ultimate spiritual power of the human race. I don't know what kind of Dao technique the Holy Emperor has cultivated, so that I am vulnerable to the strength of my innate spiritual power?"

Fu Xi said with a smile: "Although the innate spiritual power is shocking and earth-shattering, it has the ability to invade the qi, but after all, it is nourished by the innate qi. The innate qi is born in response to the changes of the two changes and follows the Taishang Avenue. What I have cultivated is this incomparably mysterious Taishang Dao. It is not yet famous, so let's call it Taiji Avenue.

The clan established the society, and the sect was established. In the future, I will look for the sage of the world, the great position of Zen and Sheji, and then withdraw from it, create a Tai Chi sect, devote myself to practicing preaching, and bless future generations. ”

Du Neng was impressed, and bowed his head and said: "If Emperor Xi establishes a sect, Du Neng is willing to use his meager strength to serve the work of a saddle horse." ”

After pacifying the world and unifying the people, Fu Xi really founded the Taiji Gate, according to the principle of the change of heaven and earth's yin and yang qi, to create Zhenwu to quench the shape of the remains, to consolidate the true yuan; to spread the public opinion to know the stars and the earth, to cultivate the cultivation; to create gossip and easy to count the number of tomorrow, to determine the four auspicious and evil; to spread the Xuanwu to sacrifice to the gods, to drive away evil spirits and suppress demons.

After Fuxi cultivated the avenue, he opened up the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm Divine Land, which was a place for future generations of monks to ascend and enjoy eternal life.

After Xia Shang, people's desires swelled endlessly, and most of their actions were based on their own selfish thoughts. The struggle for rights and positions has intensified, and even the world is in turmoil, and lives are not hesitated.

The people are bewitched by it, and they are more skillful and clever at scheming, and the ancient path is declining, and there are fewer and fewer people who can soar to the top of their cultivation. The inheritance of Tai Chi Avenue has also gradually declined, and even finally broken down.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Song Guoxin was defeated in Chu, and the widow of the dead general Lao Zuozhi was coerced in the defeated army and fled, and gave birth to a son on the way, named Lao Dan, surnamed Li Ming'er.

Lao Dan is gifted, intelligent and studious since childhood, and has a deep understanding of the yin and yang qi and the mysteries of the avenue of heaven and earth. He felt self-realization, devoted himself to practice, re-derived and reproduced the essence of Tai Chi Dao, and was respected as the Taoist ancestor by later generations of monks. The Tai Chi Kung Fu passed down by later generations, according to relevant historical research, is also derived from Taoist Kung Fu. Of course, that's another story.

Note (1):

Du Neng: In the southwest Miao region, each tribe has its own wizard, and the Miao people do not call them wizards, but ghost masters.

The name of the ghost master in the Miao language of different branches is also different, some are called "Sa", and some are called "Xiangxia" and "Du Neng". As for whether this Du Neng comes from this legendary degree of energy, I don't know very well.

The "ghost master" has always had a very noble status in the clan, and the ghost master does have special abilities and often solves problems for the clan. It's just that in later generations, a small number of inheritors did not respect the Dharma precepts, and used this innate ability to compete for fame and fortune and prey on the common people; some even openly bullied men and women, and were unscrupulous.

In the past, the Miao people in the Sino-Vietnamese border area had a tribal ghost master who stayed in the tribe's house every night; no matter who was "lucky" to visit, the head of the family had to order the female relatives of the family to serve them. If he has a daughter, he should be served by his daughter, and if he has no daughter, he must have his spouse serve him. If the head of the family disobeys the slightest, there will be evil in the family in the future, which will cause people and animals to be uneasy, and at worst, the family will be ruined.

In this way, after liberation, these ghost teachers were finally banned and severely punished by the law. It can be said that it is self-inflicted, and it cannot be lived. It is really sad and lamenable that these few inheritors violated the Heavenly Commandment, not only put themselves in prison, but also caused part of the innate inheritance to be cut off.
