The pen is romantic, and a thousand lines of poetry are written, and there is a little vicissitudes.

Section 1: Five Spirit Arrays

"Those who convince others with their strength are not convinced by their hearts, and they are not supported by their strength; those who convince others with virtue are convinced by the center and sincerely convincing [3]. This truth is understood by the Confucian scholars, but this situation is exactly "Xiucai meets the soldier - it is unreasonable". Is it that in this troubled world, in the end, we still have to embark on a road of convincing people?

Yang Ling let out a long roar, the short sword opened the double hook of Mu Ling, and his left hand took Gongsun Ye's palm power, and only one move "Split Flowers and Willows" immediately separated the two, and then jumped and ran towards Situ Zhen.

Gongsun Ye was in a hurry, he only said that Yang Ling was also a bandit in Jiuzhai Mountain, and he struck Yang Ling's back heart with ten successful forces with both palms, Yang Ling threw Gongsun Ye's palm power behind him, and the short sword of one foot and five inches was sent away, only to listen to the "Zheng", the two swords collided, Jin Lingzi's right arm shook, and his body involuntarily retreated a few steps.

Yang Ling saw that he only took two steps back before standing firm, and he couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart: "My move 'Hengjiang Flying' has been transported to seven successful forces, even Tong Xiong of the Cangnan faction may not be able to withstand it, this Jin Lingzi has only taken two steps back, and his internal strength is even higher than I thought." ”

Jin Lingzi pointed at his long sword and said, "Who is Your Excellency, and why are you stirring up the situation?" His long sword is also extraordinary, and the sword surface intersects, but there is still a crack left on the sword.

Yang Ling waited for a reply, and suddenly a short halberd, a mace, and a big axe attacked his right arm, chest, and lower limbs, and he snorted coldly, with the short sword in his hand, and brushed the three swords, and knocked the three water spirits, fire spirits, and earth spirits away. Then the short sword stabbed in the back, and cut off the single hook of the wood spirit. Jin Lingzi's expression changed slightly, his martial arts knowledge was far above the four junior disciples, and he was forced to retreat by Yang Ling, and it could be said that the other party was taken by surprise and could not be counted. At this moment, when I saw the other party's kung fu, I felt a little uneasy in my heart.

"Everyone, stop for now, I have something to say. Yang Ling hugged his fists. Situ Zhen saw that his bearing was extraordinary, and his martial arts were even more superb, and he retreated to the side with his granddaughter and junior brother at the moment, Xiong Zhan and the others saw that four of the five spirits of Kongtong were retreating, and they didn't dare to rashly excuse themselves, and shouted to their subordinates to stop clamoring.

Yang Ling bowed his hand to everyone again and said: "You hundreds of people besiege the four of you, it is inevitable that there are more bullies and less, right? I don't know the cause and effect, and I don't dare to be a person who sees injustice on the road, but I want to come and make a round for you." It's not early today, no matter what grievances and hatreds the two sides have, why don't they take a step back and wait for another day, and then finish the matter?"

Xiong Zhan and the others had not yet spoken, and the minions under his hands had no longer followed: "What are you, why?" "Let them go, let us drink the northwest wind?" "This old thing has injured so many of our brothers, how will this account be calculated?" Yang Ling was angry and dantian, "Heh!" There was a long roar, and all the minions only felt that the eardrum was shocked, and they looked at each other.

Xiong Zhan took a step forward and said: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's honorable name, what school and what school is your teacher?" Yang Ling replied: "The cheap name Yang Ling is insulting to listen to." As for the teacher's inheritance, it is not enough for outsiders. Please forgive the owner of the bear village. ”

Casting Sword Villa and the others knew that Yang Ling had the intention of helping, and they were very happy. Situ Zhen said with a smile: "Yang Shaoxia doesn't know, all the heroes here have made an agreement with the old man, if no one in his Jiuzhai can defeat the people who came out of our battle, he will no longer be entangled with the old man." It's just that it was stirred up by the five masters of the Kongtong faction, and it seems that it can't be counted. He touched his long beard and continued: "However, the master of the bear village can also be regarded as a great hero on this road, what he says, presumably will not be like a fart, otherwise how can he lead the hundreds of heroes under his hands? As for our grievances? Hehe, this person knows that. He deliberately added an accent to the word "fart", which was more sarcastic than "well-known".

Situ Zhen knew that although Yang Ling's martial arts were strong, it was also difficult to subdue everyone present by his own strength, so he simply used words to provoke the group of thieves to gamble and fight alone, and there was no one around him who was the opponent of this young man in white.

Xiong Zhan knew that Situ Zhen wanted to provoke him with words, and it was difficult to ride the tiger, so he had to slap his palms and sigh: "Okay, Xiong will end up in the name of Black Tiger Ditch at this moment, and he will be the heroes of Sword Casting Villa for a while." If he loses, Xiong shakes his ass and leaves immediately. As for the five Dao Masters of the Kongtong Sect, Brother Situ, you should think of your own ideas to send them away. After saying that, he put on a posture.

Jin Lingzi's long sword slanted, blocking Xiong Zhan's way, and the Black Tiger Ditch bandit scolded: "Doesn't the thief Taoist have long eyes? The Black Tiger Ditch group of thieves was furious, and they all drew their blades, and when Xiong Zhan gave an order, they were going to divide Jin Lingzi's corpse.

Mu Ling said: "The master of the bear village is not busy, and the fight between my Wuling and Situ Lao'er has not been finished yet." As for you, your mouth is not clean, my senior brother is not the guy who cut him off to eat, and he has already seen the face of the master of the bear village. Some of the thieves laughed secretly, some resented, and all kinds of colors.

Xiong Zhan was secretly annoyed, and said: "Five dead Taoist priests, relying on their strong martial arts, don't even take my Black Tiger Gou in their eyes, one day they want you to look good! Hmph, you go up first is exactly what I want, it's best to fight and lose both, and I Jiuzhai will sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman." He retreated and said quietly: "In this case, please go up first, and Xiong will sweep the formation." Seeing that his subordinates were still resentful, he secretly glanced at his henchmen and ordered them to appease.

By this time the day had turned westward, and it would not be long before night would fall.

Situ Zhen said: "I heard that the five Taoist elders are like brothers, and they have always been side by side to resist the enemy, if the five want to hug each other, it doesn't matter, the four of them here come together to take the fists and feet of the Taoist elders." He knew that Yang Ling would not sit idly by, with five against five, it was a steady victory, even if it was four against five, the victory or defeat would be half of the total. He fights Jin Lingzi, Gongsun Ye can fight one enemy and two, take over the fire spirit, earth spirit, Chu Hong fights the water spirit, Situ Yuxiu uses a divine soldier against the wood Lingzi, and the odds of winning are a few points more.

Mu Lingzi said: "That's fine. It's just that this kid in white is intervening in it, and the Daoists are unhappy, so it's better to fight first!" Yang Ling said with a smile: "In Xiayuan, I came to mediate disputes, and I don't want to have a grudge with the five. But if the five insist on fighting, then they have no choice but to be respectful and obey their orders. After he finished speaking, he reversed the short sword and returned it to Situ Yuxiu, but Situ Yuxiu didn't take it, and said in a low voice: "You can use this sword first." ”

Yang Ling smiled slightly: "Thank you so much!" He held a sword in his hand, his long body was jade, and he was even more majestic, and Situ Yuxiufang's heart was beating when he saw it: "He is so handsome, I am so stupid, such a talent, how can he be willing to be a bandit in Jiuzhai? He must be a big hero." ”

Jin Lingzi said coldly: "Boy, Jin Lingzi admires your ability, if you want to mediate, our skills are not as good as others, so we should have complied." However, my Kongtong Sect has a set of five spirit arrays, which are infinitely powerful, and I am confident that no one can break them......" He said this, paused but said no more. Yang Ling naturally knew what he wanted, and took over with a smile: "Then I will have the courage to give it a try, if I am lucky enough to break the formation of the Dao Chief, please forgive me." Jin Lingzi bowed his head and said: "If you break this formation, the five of us will obey my orders." If it can't be broken, please retreat quickly. ”

Yang Ling secretly thought: "Among the five realms, this Jin Lingzi has the highest martial arts, although the other four spirits are not mediocre, but they are only Di and He, and the five of them are together, I can handle it." But he relied so much on these five spirit arrays, he was afraid that there would be some symbiotic changes in them, and I couldn't take them lightly. ”

The five people each held a direction and surrounded Yang Ling. But I heard Situ Zhen shouting: "Wait! The five Taoist masters are all famous figures, although it is a rule to use five against one, it is not good to spread it after all, besides, this Yang Shaoxia is offending you for the sake of the old and decrepit party, how can Situ Zhen and the others stay out of the matter?"

The fire spirit shouted, "The old man is all together!

Situ Zhen laughed and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." After that, he entered the battle with Gongsun Ye and Situ Yuxiu, and stood behind Yang Ling. Chu Hong hesitated slightly, but also followed.

Yang Ling knew that with five enemies and five, five people each against one, then no matter what changes in the opponent's formation, if one person was defeated, this formation would be broken. His heart was already very high, and he sighed at the moment, and said: "Thank you Situ seniors for their kindness, the five Dao Masters invited each other to break the formation, which is Yang Ling's luck, if you rely on the strength of the seniors and other four people to break the formation, I am afraid that the five Dao Masters will not be convinced, and they will not win." ”

When Situ Zhen saw him say this, he expected that he had his own way to break the formation, and he didn't need to help, so he smiled and said: "The young man is reasonable, and the old four people will not have much to do." Ha ha. Situ Zhen, Gongsun Ye, and Chu Hong immediately retreated, Situ Yuxiu bit his lip and said, "You have to be careful!" Yang Ling nodded and smiled at her, Situ Yuxiu's face turned red, and he hurriedly ran out of the formation. Situ Zhen and Gongsun Ye saw it in their eyes, and they all smiled secretly, but Chu Hong's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he stared at Yang Ling stubbornly.

The five spirits stepped on the direction of the five elements and surrounded Yang Ling in the heart.

Kongtong school originated from Taoism, understand the five elements of the number of arts, Yunqi lotus pond is a Buddhist master, in the five elements of the art did not delve in, but a law through ten thousand laws, Qi Hong integrated Wudang, Kunlun martial arts had been in the five elements of a detailed citation, Yang Ling also read such books when practicing, in order to supplement the doubts.

The five people each occupy the position of Qianjin, Zhenmu, Kanshui, Lihuo, and Kun Tu, and change their positions from time to time, Yang Ling saw it at the first time, and found nine flaws that can be attacked, and it is expected that this formation follows the method of mutual restraint, if it is forcibly broken, it will be counterattacked by five people together, and it is better to brake quietly. After thinking about it, he hugged Yuan Shouyi at the moment, holding the sword in his chest.

How do you know that after the five spirits changed three times, the flaws became fewer and fewer, Yang Ling was stunned: "Isn't this set of formations not a defensive formation, but a method of strong attack?

"Drink!" Yang Ling, a little left foot, his body was like a feather, volleying up, I saw his body leaning over, his head and feet, and the short sword "snapped" five times, although there was a sequence, but almost at the same moment the five spirits were knocked away. Then he pointed his sword to the ground, and a harrier rolled over and stood still. Seeing that the blow missed, the five spirits immediately returned to their original positions. Yang Ling's eyebrows were furrowed, he didn't dare to attack blindly, only to see that the five spirits were constantly walking, and the five spirits array was also rotating again and again, and after nine consecutive turns, there was no flaw at all.

"Originally, among the five spirits, the fire spirit and the earth spirit had the worst body method, but at this moment, running in this five spirit array, the body method is high, but it is enough to compare with the gold and wood. The flaws I noticed at the beginning are now completely gone. Yang Ling pondered while staring at the five people, not daring to relax in the slightest. "Could it be that these five spirit arrays can greatly increase people's power with the way of mutual life? Or is this just a trick to hide the eyes, similar in appearance but not in a divine way?" he exhaled: "Anyway, let's give him a try." ”

Yang Ling clenched the short sword, his body suddenly flashed, and a move "Baiyun Out of Xiu" attacked the left rib of the fire spirit, which was one of the nine flaws he saw at the beginning, and according to the fire spirit son's kung fu, it was too late to resist. Unexpectedly, the fire spirit son fought with a horizontal stick and actually stopped the short sword. Yang Ling was shocked, and the rest of the four spirits immediately struck, attacking all over his body, Yang Ling hurriedly leaned back and bent his legs and knelt half-knelt, dodging the earth and water two spirit axes and halberds, and then the short sword was sharpened back, forcing the sword and hook away. Before Yang Ling could straighten up, the fire spirit mace had arrived again, and the short sword had no time to return to the rack.

"Be careful!" Situ Zhen and Gongsun Ye both had four arms, although they wanted to save each other, but they couldn't do it, Situ Yuxiu even shouted: "Young man be careful!" Yang Ling snorted coldly, only to see him wave his left hand, and forcefully brushed the iron rod away, and the fire spirit made a successful move, but he was also stabbed in the shoulder by Yang Ling's short sword. In an instant, the six people made several moves, two of them had been slightly injured, and they all took a few steps back.

Situ Yuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the back of Yang Ling's left palm was already bloodstained, and his heart was worried again. Although Situ Zhen was well-informed, he didn't know that these five spirit arrays were so powerful, the five of them kept changing their positions, and the formation was endless, and they were the same body, not only the offensive was like a tide, but the defense was also like an iron wall. Situ Zhen and Gongsun Ye rubbed their hands constantly, and the other twisted their beards, both secretly anxious.

Yang Ling felt a hot pain in his left palm, knowing that he had encountered a strong enemy, if he still had reservations at this moment, he would inevitably send his life to this formation, and he had to do everything he could, stepping on the footwork of the Qimen Eight Formations, the enemy attack would take advantage of the gap to counterattack, and the enemy code would change his position to lure the enemy to come. Wu Ling also knew that Yang Ling was a master of art, and he had a divine weapon in his hand, even if it was a heavy blade such as an iron rod and a big axe, it would never easily collide with his short sword, and only turned the natural formation and besieged it.

The six of them spun around like butterflies wearing flowers, and everyone only saw the white, gold, blue, blue, red, and yellow figures constantly staggering, and the more they fought, the more anxious they became, and gradually they couldn't even see the tricks clearly.

Gongsun Ye twisted his beard and sighed: "This white-clothed young man has exquisite swordsmanship and strong internal strength, even if my Gongsun Ye practices for another twenty years, he may not be able to have his ability." This is an eye-opener. But what kind of sect is he?"

"This young man not only revealed the swordsmanship of the Shaolin, Wudang, Kunlun, and Emei factions, but also this body method and footwork, which seems to be a peerless study of other factions, it seems that he has the skills of various factions, and it is not just as simple as a disciple of each faction. Situ Zhen nodded. Gongsun Ye paused and continued: "Not only that, the six of them fought more than 200 moves, and they couldn't tell the winner, it can be seen that the mystery of the five spirit formations of Kongtong Five Spirits is endless, no wonder they are rampant, there are few opponents, and it is really not a waste of fame." ”

Xiong Zhan also said in his heart: "This kid's martial arts are a hundred times higher than me, not to mention, just the five spirits this set of formations, I may not be able to fight them with the strength of the whole village." Fortunately, they were made pawns, so as not to embarrass Xiong. ”

Everyone was secretly amazed, full of doubts, and each thought about his own thoughts. Only Situ Yuxiu stared at Yang Ling's figure, trembling, and never moved away for a moment.

"The high-rise buildings in the city are connected to the great wilderness, and the sea and sky are boundless. The wind is turbulent and the hibiscus water is blowing, and the dense rain is obliquely invading the Lili wall.

The ridge trees cover the eyes of thousands of miles, and the river flows like nine intestines. A total of Baiyue tattoo place, still from the sound of the book stuck in a township. ”

[2] From Song Zhu Dunru's "Partridge Heaven and Western Capital", the full words are as follows:

"I am Qingdu Shanshuilang, and the Heavenly Sect is divided and mad. He has been granted a rain branch wind coupon, and he is tired of staying in the clouds and borrowing the moon chapter.

Thousands of poems, thousands of wines. How many times have he focused on watching the Hou Wang, the jade building Jin Que return lazily, and the plum blossoms are drunk in Luoyang. ”
