"Senior Brother Bamboo Dyeing, it seems that the new disciple you said has already gone up the mountain. ”

In the incense-filled hall, wooden drums burst and Buddha horns are melodious. The monks with their eyes closed were reciting the scriptures of Pudu sentient beings in a serious manner.

Zhu Yin looked at the clear night sky and said, "Crossing this Lingzhu area, even if you reach Lingzhu Peak." ”

This bamboo forest doesn't look very good, but after walking for a long time, I feel that the road is far away, the two sides are lush and green to be a full few heights higher than ordinary bamboo, and countless criss-crossing paths appear and disappear in the mountains and forests, in the canyon, and in the spirit bamboo.

The feet became heavier and heavier, and gradually Zhou Yusheng had to use one hand to pull the stem of the bamboo slightly to move forward, so as to make less effort.

After persisting like this for a long time, Zhou Yusheng was really tired enough, so he had to find a random mound and make it, and then kept wheezing.

I finally saw a touch of light in the mountains and forests, and disappeared under the guidance of Zhu Yin, and every time there was a little hope to come out, and every time, I was silently heard by Zhu Yin's footsteps, and fell down.

Finally walked out of this dense bamboo forest, but Zhou Yusheng only felt that this last bit of the road was getting more and more difficult to walk, and the rocks on the ground gradually became fewer, but on the contrary, there were more and more bamboos.

Zhou Yusheng finally didn't have to look at Zhu Yin's face anymore, and this last journey could be regarded as a meter of moving over.

As soon as I walked out of the bamboo forest, I saw a wide area in front of me, and there was a huge stone tablet standing exquisitely clear in front of me, which was unique in the world and the world, standing proudly between heaven and earth, the quaint tablet surface, as if it had been standing here since ancient times, and it had already been covered with a little moss.

There are only a few houses on the mountain, made of a few pieces of stone piled up into a fence, three low and dilapidated old houses stand dangerously beside the mo, and the smoke of cooking curls up from behind the old houses, like a white silk that dances continuously, slowly climbing the top of a tall tree, wrapping it silently.

"That's where we lived, it used to be the kitchen. Later, after the previous brothers left, it was changed to a house to live in. Zhu Yin glanced at Zhou Yusheng, saw his confusion, and explained.

"What's that?" Zhou Yusheng shook his head, his eyes did not stop at the three houses, looking at the stone monument standing proudly, he was a little distracted.

Just when Zhou Yusheng's eyes were deeply absorbed in the words on the stone stele, a wisp of blue and red mist slowly rose from the stele, and in those eyes that seemed to be charmed, it transformed into other shapes.

"It is the Zhenshan Stone, and there is such a stone tablet on every mountain peak, which is used for young disciples to comprehend the scriptures in the stone tablet. The number of scriptures that can be understood depends entirely on the understanding of a young disciple. ”

"Since there are three houses, there is another room where it lives. Zhou Yusheng asked with a blank expression.

"Shhhhh That's the only girl in this purple fire view, but the strange thing is that although this girl is good-looking, her personality is extremely weird, and she will go crazy at every turn. ”

Zhu Yin made a booing motion, carefully rolled his eyes, and looked around cautiously, so Zhu Yin, who was on full alert, was stunned in place for a long time.

Except for the wind blowing in the forest and the sound of falling bamboo leaves between the shaking of mangosteens, the night was as quiet as a pool of water, as if all the living beings had slept, and everything seemed so peaceful......

Night

Zhou Yusheng was lying on an extremely dilapidated wooden bed, and beside him, a thin quilt was covered by two people.

"Do you want to know the history of the Purple Fire Temple?" Zhu Yin looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, and suddenly turned his head to face Zhou Yusheng and asked.

Zhou Yusheng didn't speak, but with the cracks in the roof where the moonlight penetrated down, he couldn't take his eyes off the starless night sky.

"The predecessor of the Purple Fire Temple is actually the Shaolin Temple, the holy land of martial arts, and he is looking for good martial arts embryos all over the mainland, but these children are from poor families, or they will choose to enter the Purple Fire Temple alone, and most people will sign up for the competition of the top sects on the mainland by paying a fee. ”

He saw that Zhou Yusheng didn't respond, and he didn't get much angry, as if he was talking to himself.

"Huainan!" a thought popped up in Zhou Yusheng's heart, and he was startled.

Intentionally or unintentionally, he looked at Zhu Yin twice, and found that Zhu Yin was not interested in taking care of himself, so his heart hanging there was relaxed.

"Senior Brother Zhuyin, you said that since this is a matter of your Purple Fire View, I, an outsider, still don't know much about the things in your View, so as not to make people talk too much. Zhou Yusheng said.

The body in the quilt shook, but he smiled indifferently.

"These will not involve the core secrets of our view, and it is okay to talk to you, I have finally found someone to talk to in the past two years, and I am not allowed to chatter. ”

"When the master found me, I was left by my biological parents on the West Chu Mountain of the Great Jin Dynasty, and at that time I never understood why my parents were so ruthless and left me behind. Later, I figured it out, and I didn't hate it so much.

Of course, as a lady, when encountering this situation, it is indeed difficult to deal with it at first. But according to the teachings of Buddhism, if others harm you and are unfair to you, you should practice patience at this time, which is also one of the six Mahayana perfections."

He looked at the night sky from afar, his eyes full of remembrance.

Zhou Yusheng didn't look at the moist eyes under the long eyelashes, but he sighed in his heart, looking at his face in the night sky, and suddenly felt a little trance.

"Senior brother, in fact, I haven't seen my parents since I was three years old, so in my memory, the memory of my parents is still at the stage of learning to speak. ”

There was a sadness in his eyes that could not be concealed.

The two of them seemed to be quiet, staring tacitly at the vast starry sky, like lonely people, without stars as companions, and without moonlight.

Time is like a tiny piece of sand, sneaking through your fingertips. In the blink of an eye, spring and autumn have passed.

"You like to practice martial arts, very good, if you want to practice Buddhism now, then you must participate in meditation and meditate, but according to my practical experience, if you meditate alone, if you don't work hard and make slow progress, you will have Zen disease after a long time, and you will feel that your body will be weakened, so it is very good for you to practice martial arts or exercise your body, and it is very helpful to increase the activation of your qi when you meditate."

This is the words that this seemingly long year has become a mantra in the ears of Zhou Yusheng.

This year, there was nothing to do on Lingzhu Peak, and the only thing that changed his body was to listen to Zhuyin's tireless earnest teachings and calloused ears.

"Senior brother, you have kept me meditating in meditation for the past year. When will you be able to teach me how to practice? Zhou Yusheng inevitably grumbled during this long wait, and asked with a muttered mouth.

Zhu Yin is a little funny and a little angry, if his mantra in the past year is this, then Zhou Yusheng's mantra is to ask a topic tirelessly.

When will you be able to teach me martial arts?

He originally thought that under the precipitation of the past year's state of mind, Zhou Yusheng would at least not be as impatient as before, but on the contrary, Zhou Yusheng was even more impatient than before.

"You want to practice martial arts, but do you know what martial arts are all about? Blindly following martial arts training, the realm will only stagnate, and people like us will experience the first marrow cleansing after opening up the spiritual vein. In addition to washing the muscles and cutting the marrow, the mood will change with many factors in the outside world, if the mind is confused, how can we talk about the so-called martial arts?"

It's not the first time he's been talking as old-fashioned as he is now.

But the young and vigorous Zhou Yusheng, where can he listen to it.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't say a word about the conversation they had a year ago.

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight.

One force to ten will be and only fast will not break, but it is just to bully the weak with the strong and control the low with the high. Practical is practical enough, but it reduces the essence of the "technique" of martial arts, and it is inferior. ”

"Do you know that the master of Shaolin is the inner scripture, supplemented by the heart method, but the most important thing is the martial arts, so why not start with the most basic way?"

"For example, standing on the pile, Zama step. ”

In the early morning of the next day, pairs of brightly feathered waterfowl spread their wings and flew inextricably on the water. They suddenly jumped into the water, led their necks to hit the water, and suddenly chased each other, playing happily in the water.

Only above the surface of the lake, with the torrent flowing down from the shore, it hit the upper body of Zhou Yusheng's bare body over and over again.

The boy snorted, hunched over by the rushing water, gritting his teeth and clinging to the impact of the waterfall on his back.

"This is already the most basic basic skill, if you are like this, let alone want to hold a sword in your hand, it is impossible to defeat your peers. ”

Although he said this, his eyes still showed relief and surprise.

At least he found that Zhou Yusheng's body was not as weak as he imagined, on the contrary, the strength under his small body even surprised him.

Why should we practice under the water of the spring, first, to exercise the willpower, endurance, and state of mind of the mind, and secondly, the power of the impact of the waterfall is unimaginable, and the benefits to the structure of the body are self-evident. The training of the body, one is internal, the other is external~

"Open your feet 15 degrees outward, shoulder-width apart, and squat slightly. ”

At this time, Zhou Yusheng's hands could no longer take care of the iron block of the pendant in his hand, under the impact of the waterfall, the power in this layer of hands was constantly destroyed by external forces, without royal jelly, the cold impact felt almost unfiltered on his body.

His feet were no longer able to support the iron in his hands, and as he swayed downward, he maintained a parallel horizontal line.

There was a crackling sound of muscles and bones crackling all over the body, and the place where the shoulders connected to the back was already red and swollen, and it was impossible to see which piece was white and intact.

"The toes began to turn forward. This is done to gain a writhing force. ”

He staggered against the gravel in the water, and was finally able to support the shaking of his body, but unexpectedly relied on the strength of his toes to make his body unstable again.

"Senior brother, how can you stand and talk without backache. Zhou Yusheng finally accumulated a long time of resentment, and burst out biting the words.

"Shhhhh I don't think you want to be heard by Aunt Luoxue. ”

Takein's pupils keep turning when they do bad things.

Although his heart was weak, he chuckled with a playful smile.

"That woman!" he muttered, his lips immediately obediently tightened, and his eyes rolled and looked around vigilantly.

"What don't you want me to hear?"

：

A familiar voice, like a demon that eats people without blinking, came from the room that was not usually opened.

Zhou Yusheng was suddenly struck by lightning.

"Senior Aunt!" Seeing this, Zhu Yin hurriedly put down the posture that he was accustomed to teaching Zhou Yusheng, and bowed to the delicate-looking woman in front of him with a respectful face.

She wore a hat and a nun dress and knelt at the futon. Twisting the Buddha beads in one hand, knocking on the wooden fish with the other, closing his eyes, and looking like he didn't care about the world.

"You should know who I am from Zhuyin's mouth, I have been in retreat for a year, it seems that there will be new disciples on this Spirit Bamboo Peak. ”

In that remote residence far away from Zhou Yusheng and Zhuyin, she was still knocking on the wooden fish, her eyes didn't open for a moment, but her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her tone was calm and a little alienated.

"You're the new disciple. ”

Zhou Yusheng looked at her in a daze, speaking of which, she finally slowly opened her eyes, there was no trace of fluctuation in her beautiful eyes, and when she looked at Zhou Yusheng, that cold gaze only glanced at Zhou Yusheng's body a few times, and then slowly closed her eyes and knocked on the wooden fish.

"She is the only girl on Lingzhu Peak that I said, according to her seniority, you have to call her Aunt Luoxue. Zhu Yin saw Zhou Yusheng standing there embarrassed, not knowing what to say.

walked over and arched Zhou Yusheng's shoulder, attached it to Zhou Yusheng's ear, and said softly: "More than ten years ago, I heard that the bamboo dyeing master had a marriage with this Aunt Luo Xue, but I don't know why I ended up with hatred, but this Aunt Luo Xue was infatuated with my master, and after the master entered the empty door, she also came with him." ”

Luo Xue frowned slightly, looked at Zhou Yusheng's somewhat changed gaze, smiled sadly, and said, "Zhuyin, it seems that your butt is itching again, do you want to go to the Discipline Hall to be beaten again?" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yin's whole person shook up with a "bang", smiled at the woman's eyebrows, touched his head and walked away from Zhou Yusheng step by step, as if he remembered something, and disappeared in the mountains and forests.

"It seems that Zhuyin is still the same old look, specializing in deceiving new disciples who have gone up the mountain. ”

She looked at the lonely body under the waterfall, and her cheeks showed two helpless dimples, but at the same time, her eyes suddenly froze at this moment.

Zhou Yusheng didn't hear Luo Xue's helpless laughter, but when the pain spread to every part of his body, the numbness made his hearing much clearer.

So he heard Luo Xue's "cheating" again and again.

"Poof!"

Long Yu, who was standing on the shore, jumped into the icy water in an instant with his upper body, splashing a splash, and the ripples spread towards the surrounding water, waking up the fish in the water.

Soon, Zhou Yusheng swam in front of the waterfall, and his eyes swept to a protruding stone at the edge of the stone wall of the waterfall, and the stone became extremely smooth under the long-term washing of the waterfall.

"Give it to me. She grabbed Zhou Yusheng's hand, looked at Zhou Yusheng's capable palms, and her eyes set off a trace of waves, but it was only for a moment, she suppressed the waves, she said: "Child, have you ever cultivated the Nine Revolutions of Xuanlong." ”

He awkwardly withdrew his hand from the woman's hand, his face was stained with a trace of anger, and he said a little absent-mindedly: "It hurts!"

"Did you say yes!" she shouted as she lowered her eyes slightly.

"I ......" He was a little afraid of Luo Xue in such a state, even if he couldn't feel any murderous aura on her, he was still very afraid and didn't dare to look at her.

"I'm right, right?" she smirked.

"But don't be afraid, I just want to know why there are still people practicing the Nine Turns of the Xuanlong now, this book only has the first part, not the next part. ”

She lowered her eyes, as if she didn't care, but her fingers were clenched tightly, and her fingertips were white, which showed how uncomfortable she really felt in her heart.

Zhou Yusheng sighed and looked at her incredulously.

"Do you know, there is indeed a book called Xuanlong Nine Turns in Guangling, which is kept by the three Guangling families today, although it has been a long time since the whereabouts of this exercise have been revealed, I will not ask you the origin of your cultivation exercises, but many years ago when there was no way to explore, this practice method was too mysterious, and the three families of Guangling searched for a lifetime, but they did not find the second half of this Xuanlong Nine Turns. Luo Xue looked at him with solemn eyes.

"Then my father should have been from the Guangling family. He thought to himself.

"Then which are the three Guangling families today. He almost blurted out, not caring about Luo Xue's surprised expression at all.

"He, Lin, and Guo divided the power of the entire Great Jin Dynasty's overseas trade. ”

After all, he still didn't have the courage to continue asking, and the scriptures of the Xuanlong Nine Revolutions were circling in his mind, and this exercise that he was already familiar with was becoming more and more blurred in his mind.

"I advise you, although this Xuanlong Nine Turns is a superior exercise, but you already know that there is no complete exercise, even in the Xuanmiao is useless, even the three families of Guangling have not thoroughly comprehended this exercise, and it is too late to give up now. ”

Luo Xue looked at Zhou Yusheng who was in a trance, a touch of reluctance flashed in her eyes, and she looked at the open door in front of her, a little distracted.

"Why do you know so much. ”

Zhou Yusheng looked at her, only felt a bitterness in his throat, he gritted his teeth, and finally said weakly.

She opened her eyes, there was no sadness or joy in her eyes, she shook her head and said, "Because I was originally a member of the three families of Guangling, this kind of thing is not a secret in the three families of Guangling. ”

"Don't look at the kid Zhuyin, sometimes he looks cynical, when he first came, he also looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, but his martial arts attainments are really amazing. ”

Luo Xue looked at the bamboo hidden in the mountains and forests and peeked at the place, and finally sank her eyes.

She slowly closed her eyes and said, "Practice with Zhuyin, you haven't opened up the spiritual veins yet, and there will be many choices in the future." ”

Not far away, Zhu Yin turned around, and his eyes fell on Zhou Yusheng's face, but seeing that he looked absent-minded, he didn't have any curiosity, and at this time, the sun began to set.

"Let's go, we have to go chop bamboo. ”

The sky was not so clear, and the fog was wrapped around the trunks of the green trees, and the fog, the branches, and the chirping of birds could be heard and seen in the sunlight.

But the spiritual bamboo that night was full of shadows, but at this time it was a barren piece of fertile land.

As far as the eye can see, all you can see is the mist of the mountains and the looming peaks.

"Senior Aunt Luoxue, you must have said that I deceived the new disciple again. ”

Zhou Yusheng thought to himself, you are a little self-aware.

"There is a rule in the meditation that a new disciple must meditate for a year and a half before he can start practicing martial arts. And the new disciples who have gone up the mountain, who is not as young and vigorous as you, and whose heart is higher than the sky. I can only satisfy them, let them start practicing martial arts half a month early, and then don't they ask for their own hardships?"

In the vicinity of Zhenshan Stone, Zhu Yin was shirtless, holding a long sword shining in his hand, and in front of him was playing tiger and tiger.

He pressed the sword in his hand, restrained his smile, and unfolded the sword momentum with a brush, his two eyes flashed like meteors, and the eye wave followed the gesture, and the sharp sword stabbed away with the place where his gaze turned.

The sword passed by, and the wind was blowing, and the bamboo leaves on the spiritual bamboo fell.

I saw that as the speed of this horizontal and vertical stab became faster and faster, it was like a silver dragon flying up and down around him, coiling left and right.

Hearing a loud sound of "drinking", the direction of the sword, the tip of the sword was aimed at Zhou Yusheng, and in the next second, his body was already ghostly, constantly changing his body shape in the direction where Zhou Yusheng was, his steps were strange, and even from Zhou Yusheng's sight, even Zhuyin's figure was ambiguous in this weird footwork.

"This is my Shaolin sect ancestor Dharma Venerable in Songshan face wall 18 years later, a set of swordsmanship "Dharma swordsmanship", also famous for strange moves, its body, footwork is also beyond the reach of other swordsmanship, junior brother to see the move!"

"Senior brother, don't!"

If there is no sword light illusory on Zhu Yin's body, sometimes it flashes several times, and sometimes you can see countless identical swords in a row, bursting out from those serious expressions.

Zhu Yin's figure was like a drunk, staggering into the real and false obstacle method, the sword light that was still a little blurred, the tip of the sword was drawn, and it closed like a lotus flower on the long sword in Zhu Yin's hand.

The hilt of the sword shook, the hurried sword blade blew up the bamboo leaves on the ground, a flash of cold light, the sword body that could see Zhou Yusheng's eyes clearly, wiped Zhou Yusheng's place at hand, the sword blade turned, and the sword flower stabbed upward, like the stars in the night, thousands of points, sprinkled down!

Zhou Yusheng stood in place, sweating like rain, thinking about the long sword that was about to pierce him, but at this time he returned to the sheath, and for a while he couldn't walk and couldn't say a word.

"Senior brother, I was careless. He said stupidly, and retracted the long sword towards the scabbard behind him, but the slaughter when he withdrew the sword stared at Zhou Yusheng for a moment.

He could still remember that if he was ruthless, he could hurt him by stabbing his sword into it, and when the four eyes met, although they were in a trance with fear, there was a golden light shining from his eyes.

Although it was only for a moment, Takegakure could see it very clearly.

Obviously, he had the mentality of fighting the enemy seriously, but in the face of that light in his eyes, he suffocated in his chest, so he would change the sword momentum in battle and not let the tip of the sword hurt him.

"Zhuyin, your Dharma swordsmanship has improved again. ”
