Chapter 117: The Gambling Fight (Part II)
The Changchun Temple is the dojo of the Quanzhen Sect, and the Quanzhen Sect is the one that has the greatest contradiction with Buddhism. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Quanzhen Sect was founded by Wang Chongyang to study the teachings of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and at the beginning of its establishment, it was proposed that "Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism are connected, and the three religions have always been one ancestral style".
Thirty years after Qiu Chuji, the Quanzhen Sect reached its heyday, and there were more than 100 palaces in the Yanjing area and its vicinity alone.
"Xiuwu Halal Observation" said: "From Qiu to the call of the Dragon Court,...... Since then, the person with the yellow crown is the second in the world. The flames were loud and vigorous, agitating Haiyue. It can be seen that the Quanzhen Sect was at its peak at that time.
However, in its heyday, it was hit by two big sticks from Buddhism.
He debated with Buddhism twice under the leadership of Li Zhichang and Zhang Zhijing, but both failed miserably. Li Zhichang died of depression after that, Fan Shiying and other 17 people cut their hair and became monks, most of the "Taoist Collection" was destroyed, and more than 200 Taoist temples were returned to Buddhist temples.
Since then, the Quanzhen Religion has gone from prosperity to decline. Although most of the vitality of the religion itself has been lost and the policies of the current dynasty have been caused, Buddhism has also played a role in inducing it.
It is also because of this that Li Zitong was hostile to Su Wen from the beginning.
Several Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect were looking at Su Wen, the information and photos had been seen for a long time, and it was the first time they had seen a real person.
In his early 20s, he was handsome, barefoot, a little cold, and full of fighting spirit, but it was different from the compassionate appearance in the photo, not at all like the quiet and peaceful appearance of ordinary monks.
As Su Wen's voice fell, the atmosphere in the audience became more condensed.
Several Taoist priests retreated to the side under the leadership of the two veteran Taoists, and only Li Zitong was left standing there in the field with a long sword inlaid with gems in his scabbard.
Seeing him like this, Su Wen didn't need to ask if it was a weapon, and stretched out his hand to the side to grab the Zen staff that Xingxin was holding.
"Come to the side, don't touch the incense. ā
Then the two of them moved a few meters to the side, and the surrounding area was full of open space.
Su Wen spoke: "The gambling contract is still to be made." ā
"Naturally. ā
How could Li Zitong retreat at this time, the last time I saw Su Wen make a move, he felt that the winning rate was extremely high. What's more, at this time, there is a Yuxuan sword in his hand, and there is absolutely no reason to lose.
Li Zitong pulled out his long sword and pointed at Su Wen: "If you lose to me, you should abandon the Buddha and enter the Tao, enter my door, and devote yourself to cultivation." ā
Su Wen also said coldly: "If you lose, you must abandon the Tao and enter the Buddha, worship in my Pure Heart Temple, and then have nothing to do with Taoism." ā
As soon as the words fell, Su Wen's body was full of fighting spirit, and he was a few steps away from a few meters, and the Zen stick in his hand danced around and smashed it directly.
Li Zitong found out last time that Su Wen's momentum was compelling, so he naturally wouldn't block hard, and the long sword in his hand stabbed Su Wen's arm two inches.
Usually, Li Zitong may have some flamboyant personality, but after drawing his sword, the momentum of the whole person has stabilized. "Sword, murder weapon. War, crisis, so we must not be cautious. However, it is okay to be cautious, but not to be cowardly. "The words of the teacher when he passed the sword were always in his heart, so as soon as the sword was unsheathed, the whole person was immediately different.
Su Wen knew that the other party had seen his own golden bell jar, and the sword he used was extraordinary, so he didn't dare to use his body to connect it, and he threw it with one hand, and with the other hand, he held the Zen staff and smashed it to the ground, and most of the tower on the head of the entire staff was submerged in the ground.
Immediately, he shook it, and the dirt on the head of the cane was all lifted towards the plums. Take advantage of the situation to dance the Zen staff, one stick after another.
As soon as Li Zitong stretched out his arm to block the dirt that was rising to his face, a strong wind blew in his face. In my heart, if this power is smashed, my brain will burst. Hurriedly lowered his head, and after a few turns, he turned to Su Wen's side, and pointed the long sword in his hand at Su Wen's wrist.
This is where the tesuji is, and if it is hit, as long as the tip of the sword is picked, this hand will be useless.
From Su Wen shaking out the dirt with his cane, to Li Zitong turning to Su Wen's side and slamming his wrist, the movements of both sides looked ordinary to outsiders, and those who knew how could see the danger.
Weapon warfare is much more dangerous than empty-handed fighting, and as long as both sides miss a shot, it will immediately end up dead or alive.
"Bell"
After a few rounds of fighting, the weapons of both sides intersected for the first time.
The bottom of the Zen staff and the sword were touched, and Su Wen's left hand slipped and held it at the place where it collided with the sword. This kind of steel-knotted cemented carbide is really hard to hurt.
Li Zitong didn't even need to look at the weapon in his hand, he pulled out a sword flower in his hand, and stabbed Su Wen's eyes.
The sword was extremely fast, and the sword came out like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, and the tip of the sword made a sneering sound of breaking through the air, as if it was really like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.
The people around the audience were attentive and silent, savoring the dangers of each move on both sides, only Wang De and Qiu Wenquan were like watching a movie.
Li Zitong's set of Qingping swords has a total of 373 styles, and there are many tricks, and they are endless. The former sword sets an ambush for the latter sword, and the latter sword plays the work of the previous sword. The sword is uncertain, you want to be left first and right, you want to be right and left, and you can win by surprise. The sword is yin and yang, the previous sword is yang, the next sword is yin, yin and yang are intertwined, anyway, they are interlocking, the changes are endless, and they are elusive.
There was a constant sound of weapons colliding in the field, and Li Zitong moved extremely fast, just one person was like four or five people besieging him, and his moves were either directed at Su Wen's arm seven inches, or directly hit the vital point.
Counting silently in his heart, he struck each other thirteen times in a row, and the Zen staff in Su Wen's hand was not broken, which surprised him. This Yuxuan sword has been handed down for thousands of years, the real sharpening of iron is like mud, the thick steel bars of the child's arm are broken in two, this time he gambled on the master to borrow it from the host of the view, I thought that only a few swords went down The other party would be empty-handed, but a series of thirteen swords did not cut off the Zen staff in Su Wen's hand?
"I see you can block a few rounds. Li Zitong gritted his teeth in his heart and said secretly, and the Yuxuan Sword in his hand was one point faster.
Su Wen waved the Zen staff in his hand and couldn't splash the water, and kept making the sound of gold and iron resonating.
Several Taoist priests in Changchun Temple were a little surprised, they knew the sharpness of the Yuxuan Sword best, how could they fight for so long, the other party's Zen staff was still undamaged, what kind of Zen staff is this?
The sword in Li Zitong's hand is getting faster and faster, and the three swords in a row are blocked by Su Wen, and it is another sword to change the direction as he walks.
"The other party's speed is getting faster and faster, if he continues like this, sooner or later, he will not be able to stop it, and he can't let him play it anymore. Su Wen's heart turned sharply.
As soon as he thought of this, Su Wen took a sharp breath, "Suck-suck-" For a while, everyone in the field heard a huge inhalation sound, like a dragon sucking water, and the whole person's chest shrank.
Li Zitong secretly said that his movements were not good, his body jumped back, and the long sword in his hand was swung out, which was to prevent Su Wen from chasing him.
"Hum!"
Su Wen's roar mixed with the six-character mantra can be said to be earth-shattering, and everyone in the distance felt their eardrums buzzing, not to mention Li Zitong in front of him.
There was a momentary blank in my mind.
After Su Wen's roar, his body was also empty, and he recovered in the next second, and waved the Zen staff in his hand, but instead of rushing at Li Zitong, he was heading towards the long sword in his hand.
Many Taoist priests next to him were startled at first, and then relieved.
If Su Wen hit Li Zitong with this cane, everyone would have to worry a little more. Ordinary long swords are afraid of being bumped by heavy weapons, but the Yuxuan Sword is the treasure of Changchun Guanzhenguan, and Su Wen's move is a waste of his great opportunity.
A staff swung out and swung the long sword away, Su Wen shouted, his body seemed to have swelled in a circle, his face was hideous, and the long staff in his hand flew like a crazy demon, Li Zitong was forced by this momentum, and retreated one after another, and the long sword in his hand continued to block the shadow of the staff in the sky.
"Is this to stimulate potential?" Li Zitong's palms were numb, all sects and factions have such means, and their strength has increased greatly in a short period of time, the short ones can last for a few breaths, and the long ones only last for a minute or two.
"Su asked, you are self-defeating. Li Zitong was secretly happy in his heart, as long as this strength passed, he would definitely lose. But he didn't notice that after so many collisions with the Yuxuan Sword in his hand, there had already been a gap everywhere.
"Ahhhh It can be said that the mad wand method is not something that ordinary people can make, and the energy is consumed too quickly. Originally, a lot of strength was consumed in front of me, and I am afraid that this set of staff techniques will be out of force after barely being used.
"Bell" "Bell" "Bell"
The sound of gold and iron in the field was like striking iron.
Just when the other staff was blocked, everyone thought that it would be the same as just now, and they were also calculating in their hearts how long Su Wen could hold on. After all, the Zen staff is much heavier than the long sword, not to mention that after fighting for so long, it has burst out of its potential.
"Click. Li Zitong only felt that the long sword in his hand was light, and half of the long sword flew straight out, and his mind was suddenly blank, and he completely forgot about the long staff that came straight to him with the wind howling.
A look of despair: "How is it possible? How is it possible? How can the Yu Xuan Sword be broken?"
