Chapter 32
What is Magic Skill?
The things of the world, as long as they are stained with the word 'demon', have been rejected by orthodoxy throughout the ages. The so-called demon is evil, and the evil demon is also outside. The Tao is what man does. Although the righteous path and the demon path are all Taos, the world praises the former and abandons the latter, and the same is true for the way of martial arts.
Even Xi Zhimiao, who was known as a generation of demons back then, was also Xi's decent inner family, and he only got the name of the devil because of his debauchery, bloody and ruthless methods, and his scorn on decent martial arts.
And the so-called magic skills are nothing more than quick success, evil spirits, cruelty, tricks, and rebellion, which are not recognized by universal values, and the consequences are endless but powerful.
For example, Ling Xiao Pavilion's Chongyun Sword Technique is a typical righteous path exercise, which emphasizes gradual and conforms to the laws of nature, as long as it can be practiced steadily, at least above the exercises, it will not cause damage to the meridians or go crazy.
Another example is the Eight Blood Soul Palms of the Blood Killing Palace, although the name sounds evil, but it is seriously classified, at most it is classified into strange arts, and it is still righteous martial arts.
But the "Taichu Chu Method" ...... I'm sorry, but it's a real 'magic work'.
This mental method emphasizes speed, cunning, and rebellion, in addition to the yin and evil not being touched, even the 'cruelty' is somewhat related. What is such a practice that is not magic work?
People who practice the "Taichu Chu Method", the meridians are retrograde, the inner demons are easy to be born and easy to destroy, and the danger of going mad is even more shadowy, and if you are not careful, you can make people fall into the realm of life is worse than death. But at the same time, it is quick because of its tricks, but if you want to achieve higher achievements after the quick completion, you need to constantly collect all kinds of exercises during the practice stage, and gather the strengths of each school, so as to blend them into one, and break out of the huge complexity of true qi and the huge risk of going mad.
Wealth and danger are sought, nothing more than that.
Xi Yutang is 21 years old and has been in charge of Xuantian for nearly ten years, but he is already a well-known master in the world. Such a person will not be one of them for thousands of years, unless he is born to practice martial arts. She is not a genius, she insists on boasting a few words, at most she has a clear bone, and she is a material for martial arts.
However, after she studied the "Taichu Chu Fa", she became a master in less than five years, and became the top in the world in another ten years.
This is where the magic of the Taichu Chu method lies.
No one can resist such an temptation. Confuse.
The way of martial arts emphasizes single-mindedness, some people use swords, they use swords all their lives, and some people make swords, they make swords for life, so that they can become a family after a few years. However, the particularity of the Taichu Chu method requires that it bloom everywhere, swords, guns, swords, halberds, Tao Zen is upright, and Qimen is outside the Dao, and all the exercises suitable for practice must be tasted and practiced, and then converted into Taichu True Qi for personal use. In this way, the true qi in the body is so complex that the meridians are running out of order, and if the practitioner is not mentally strong, it is easy for him to fall into a hopeless place, and it is of course common for him to go mad.
Looking at the martial arts in the world, which sect is willing to let others learn their own martial arts? The Taichu Chu method is too predatory, and it can't be achieved without the support of many martial arts, and if it falls into the hands of careerists, it is not impossible to cause huge turmoil in the martial arts.
Yue Qingfeng's summary of Xi Yutang's exercises is too appropriate, isn't it just a collection of the strengths of each family to take a way of life, and it can't be done without a firm mind?
The higher the strength, the greater the hidden danger, in the eyes of an immortal genius like Yue Qingfeng, how can you not see the huge crisis hidden in the middle?
Xi Yutang may go mad and explode at any time, how can he not be shocked?
Anyway, the words have been spoken, even if Yue Qingfeng can no longer accept it, Xi Yutang has already come to this point, and there is no way back, unless he exhausts his strength, self-abandoning his martial arts, or he can try to get out of the crisis, but how is this possible?
It is precisely because she wants to take revenge and stand up in the shortest possible time that she will choose the Taichu Chu method without hesitation.
Heavy rain, lightning and thunder, a sudden rain in the middle of the night in Hangzhou City, like a basin of cold ice water, poured the breeze from beginning to end.
The huge Weiyang residence, except for where the two of them sit, was all wet with rain, and the demons of the gauze tent danced wildly, and the wind howled and hideous, just like his panicked and chaotic heart at this time.
Xi Yutang sat opposite from him, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, calm and mocking in his dark eyes, the flush after drinking had disappeared, replaced by the same cold feeling, and even the long scar under his eyes seemed to become hideous and dazzling in such a rainy day.
From the moment she finished saying that, she had been looking at the person in front of her so lazily and harmlessly, watching him go from shock to horror to anger, and finally to endless silence, and the smile on her face became more and more harmless, as if it was a pastime to pass the time by seeing the breeze change her face.
She even suddenly felt that it was quite a sense of accomplishment to make this person who had always been Tarzan collapse and his face did not change his face to have such a changeable expression.
"You ......"
Yue Qingfeng finally spoke, but in the next second, he burst out with a violent cough, tearing his heart and lungs, as if he had exhausted all his strength. With difficulty, he took out the brocade in his bosom and covered his mouth, and then it was stained with red blood, which ran down his fingers, stained his clean sleeves, and then fell on the wooden floor, and then silently flowed into the cracks.
Xi Yutang saw it in his eyes, and the mockery in his eyes finally subsided a little, and leaned over to help him calm down.
After a while, the coughing sound gradually disappeared, and Yue Qingfeng's pale face was flushed with a sickly flush. Xi Yutang handed him a cup of tea and watched him drink it, and thoughtfully took the teacup away and put it away, and went over to help him comb his heart and lungs.
Yue Qingfeng's body stiffened, and his eyes showed an incredible look.
Xi Yutang sat back in place, his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't feel guilty, "You may have to sit here for a while." ”
After a pause, she laughed again, "I'm not in good health, don't get sick when I get out of the drunken flower building, it's not mine." ”
“…… Servant! Jade! Wild plum! Yue Qingfeng's voice was low and hoarse, with a hidden anger.
The person opposite raised an eyebrow.
"Let go of me." He said coldly.
Seeing that he was really angry, Xi Yutang shook his head, "No." ”
Without waiting for Yue Qingfeng to continue speaking, she said lightly, "You'd better not try to rush the acupoints, I will inherit the Shen family's method of acupoints, and rush away strongly, you will have to lie in bed for at least half a month." ”
…… The less the Lord is silent.
Xi Yutang poured himself a cup of tea slowly, "You should have guessed that I was going to listen to the rain pavilion for a while, so I deliberately stayed and waited for me." But alas, I don't want to take you. ”
"But I'm in a good mood, so it's good to talk to you. Do you particularly want to know about my relationship with Shaolin? For example, how do I know Shaolin Zen fingers? It's very simple, when I sold "Taichu" to Shaolin, I only needed 50,000 taels of silver, but I lived in Shaolin for a month. You can do many, many things in a month......"
She seemed to be particularly interested in speaking today, perhaps because she had drunk too much, or perhaps because she had thought about what had happened many years ago.
Xi Yutang is not a pure bad guy after all. The reason why she sold the Taichu Chu method to Shaolin was nothing more than the hope that this kind of thing that caused her to destroy her door could be suppressed and hidden in the hands of Shaolin, a decent leader of martial arts.
Back then, the abbot of Shaolin personally checked her true qi, tested her for a whole month, confirmed that she did not practice, and made her swear not to touch the magic skills, so she was released. Shaolin also had a good attitude towards her, and was even willing to be the first to speak out in support of Xuantian's rebuilding - the monks talked about cause and effect, and the Taichu Chu method and Xuantian reconstruction were one cause and one effect.
But as soon as she returned to the snowy mountain, she betrayed her oath.
The sky and the earth are big, the revenge is the greatest, and the oath is a fart.
"My father and mother are very good to me, my brother is good, and the people in the whole snowy mountain are good." She played with the empty tea cup, her expression was soft, as if she was stuck in a memory, "I have never felt this before, so even if we only have been relatives for a few years, I am willing to pay for it, and I am even more afraid that those people will almost let me lose this hard-won life." ”
"You see, I'm a possibility
She looked at the man in front of her who was silent, her gaze paused on his blood-stained but even more pale lips, and for the first time she carefully examined his face.
Yan is like snow, skin is like jade, every edge and corner is just right, whether it is laughing or angry, it is suffocatingly handsome. The world is stunning, and the world is full of immortals.
Such a person......
"Solemn," she said softly, "since we both are going to die at any moment, don't bother thinking about anything else. After all...... Time is limited, and we all have a lot to do. ”
There are words in the words, and there are meanings, and Yue Qingfeng quickly realizes that she is responding to her confession. This was the first time in a long time that she had responded positively to the showdown in Wushan, and it was precisely on the night that he asked the truth about Taichu's original method.
Whether it was already calculated or just in time for the meeting, it is unknown.
Yue Qingfeng was stunned.
Xi Yutang calmly met his gaze.
The rain outside the building was booming, and the rain did not tend to decrease at all. The entire Zuihualou gradually fell silent, and there were constantly candles extinguished, and it was already pitch black outside the Weiyang residence.
After a long time, Yue Qingfeng's hoarse voice sounded again, "...... You stayed a little longer, just to say this? ”
The person on the other side did not speak.
There were suddenly two different breaths in Weiyang's residence, Xi Yutang turned around, Xue Yang stood at the door expressionlessly, and behind him was Shaoguang with a calm expression. Seeing that she was sitting soberly in place, without any sense of alcohol, Shaoguang's arm holding the cloak tightened, and a trace of grievance flashed in his eyes.
"Master, it's time to go." Xue Yang Road.
Xi Yutang stood up with his head on his head, and before he could take two steps, he was suddenly grabbed by someone and grabbed his wrist vigorously, and the force was so great that his hand bones were creaking.
She turned her head in surprise, and happened to meet Yue Qingfeng's eyes, sharp, cold, angry, and a trace of righteousness hidden behind it.
"Are you crazy?!" Xi Yutang was shocked.
"I'm ...... crazy"
Yue Qingfeng was half-sitting, the whole person seemed to be trembling slightly, his face became more and more pale, and his tone of light and light in the past became gritted teeth, and he didn't know if it was caused by the pain of backlash caused by forcibly rushing to the acupoint.
"Xi Yutang, when did I give you an illusion that made you feel ...... Can you make any decisions for me? ”
Xi Yutang's eyes widened slightly.
In the next second, the strength holding her suddenly loosened, and the person in front of him fell down without warning. Xi Yutang reflexively caught him, and probed his true qi in a daze, and saw that the true qi in his body was in chaos, and suddenly became angry.
This man!!
Just to say this?!
"Master!" Almost at the moment when Yue Qingfeng fell, the two Yue family secret guards jumped out of the darkness at the same time.
Xi Yutang raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two, did not let go of Yue Qingfeng, but beckoned to Shaoguang.
Shaoguang reluctantly bit his lip and stepped forward to hand over the cloak, Xi Yutang took it and shook it away, carefully helping him cover the wind and rain.
"What's your name?" She looked at one of the guards.
The other party hesitated for a moment and replied, "Si Nian." ”
"Proof of it."
Si Nian twitched the corner of his mouth and silently showed his waist card.
Xi Yutang nodded and handed the person over, "Send your young master back." After a pause, he added, "Take Shen Qi, Chengdong Taiping Inn." ”
"Thank you." Si Nian was silent, picked up Yue Qingfeng and left.
The Yue family all withdrew, and Xue Yang waited until there was no one, then he stepped forward and whispered a few words to Xi Yutang, and took out a wooden locket from his arms, and the latter took it with a normal face.
"Master......" Shaoguang spoke, "let Shaoguang accompany you, so that you can take care of it." ”
Xi Yutang didn't seem to hear it, and jumped lightly, and the person had rushed into the torrential rain.
Shaoguang gritted his teeth and wanted to keep up, Xue Yang quickly grabbed her, and glanced at her with a warning look, but at this moment, there was no shadow and breath of Xi Yutang outside.
Shaoguang angrily shook off Xue Yang's hand, "Do you know where the master went!" Killer Lair! How many of them we have killed over the years are mortal enemies! Why don't you let me follow?! ”
"The master said she was going alone." Xue Yang Mu opened his mouth.
"Wood! Nerds! "Shaoguang. Angry and stomped his feet.
###
According to the arrangement, today Xi Yutang set up a banquet in the drunken flower building as the head of Jiangnan Hall, and Xue Yang took people to Zheng's house to create a commotion, took advantage of the chaos to stab the head of the family Zheng Yong and took it away, asked about the whereabouts of Tingyu Pavilion's nest, and blamed others by the way.
The rain had been falling all night and finally stopped at dawn. Xi Yutang took advantage of the night to go out of the city, and after a night of hurrying, he finally came to this temple where the incense was not very strong in the early morning.
It's ironic that the famous killer organization, where people buy and sell heads, is actually behind this temple.
Xi Yutang twitched the corners of his mouth, tidied up his dress, and slowly walked up the stairs.
The air in the early morning after the rain is exceptionally good, and the moist smell is wrapped in earth, mixed with the smell of temple incense, and the smell is particularly calming. Xi Yutang is dressed in a women's red dress, her long hair is simply tied in a bun of a girl who has not been out of the pavilion, a pearl and jade hairpin, her skin is like clotted fat, her eyebrows are beautiful, and she has a long sword at her waist.
She first went to the Buddha to put on the pillar incense, and then went directly to the back mountain under the pretext of enjoying the scenery, and stopped and stopped for a while without any regularity, and suddenly turned the direction and went straight to the top of a small hill next to her.
There are two people playing chess at the top of the mountain.
"Huh? There are still people like you and me who enjoy the scenery early in the morning. One of the young men in the dark brocade robe looked at Xi Yutang curiously, "The girl is so interested. ”
Opposite the man was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face and an ordinary linen clothes, seeing Xi Yutang going up the mountain alone, he only glanced at it and focused on the chess game again, "You're going to lose." ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, glanced at the chessboard, and suddenly screamed.
Xi Yutang glanced at the two of them a few times, and said coldly, his voice was naturally disguised, "Su Seventeen? ”
The young man's hand holding the chess game paused slightly, and the man in sackcloth looked sideways.
Xi Yutang knew that he didn't recognize the wrong person, so he took out a wooden card and an iron card from his waist expressionlessly, charged his hand with strength, and shot at the two of them like a secret weapon. In a flash of light, the two reached out at the same time to catch the sign.
The two of them looked at the waist card in their hands, and the young man got up, his expression was already abnormal, "Dare to ask the girl's surname?" ”
"Meng." Xi Yutang cherishes words like gold.
Both of them were stunned, and then looked at each other with solemn expressions, Xi Yutang's face showed impatience, and he said without waiting for the two to ask, "Which of you is Su Seventeen?" ”
The young man said, "Under the surname Sue." ”
"Proof of it."
The other party twitched the corner of his mouth, took out an iron card and shook it.
Xi Yutang was unmoved.
"I'm really Su XVII! The most handsome Su Seventeen in the pavilion! The young man jumped to his feet, "Girl, how about everyone being honest and getting to the point?" ”
"Who wants to be honest with you?"
“……”
Su Qiqi blushed and stopped talking angrily. The middle-aged man reluctantly stepped forward and showed his waist card, and the iron token was clearly written with sixteen or two words, "Girl, dare to ask Ling Zun ......"
"Master." Xi Yutang corrected him unceremoniously, "Meng Thirteen, Changyin Sword." ”
Rubbing the word "thirteen" engraved on the iron plate in his hand, the middle-aged man was silent for a moment and spoke, "Dare to ask the commander......
"Dead." Xi Yutang's face was expressionless.
Meng Shisan, the ace killer of the Yuge Pavilion in the past, participated in the first battle of Snow Mountain in his personal capacity, and was later killed by Xi Yutang in the Xuantian Sect by gathering the power of the whole sect.
He died a very tragic death.
