Zhou Fan walked out of the council hall, made light efforts, and ran wildly all the way along the route of the defeat of the black faction, and came to a vast sandy area, where there were new footprints walked by someone, he thought that this was probably the footprints of the black faction, and after he followed it for a while, the foot disappeared unconsciously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He saw that this place was vast and sparsely populated, and there was not a single household for thousands of miles. Zhou Fan wondered if he had come to the Western Regions? Impossible, the Western Regions are in the west, I am coming to the north, although he really wants to find Heifu, but he still focuses on going to Taiyue Mountain and finding his uncle as soon as possible.
Just after a light rain, the sky was overcast, Zhou Fan was depressed and did not see anyone, he suddenly saw a small town faintly in front of him, the town was crowded with people, very prosperous. He ran forward happily, and when he was almost there, the bustling town suddenly disappeared again, and he seemed to be in an illusion, and he felt very tired, and when he lay down and wanted to rest for a while, he saw the town in front of him again, and he reproached himself for not reaching the town, so he stopped, and then he quickened his run, and after a while, the town was gone again. That's when he thought it was a "mirage".
He ran all the way to the "town" he had seen, but the sand illusion made him lose his way. Dejectedly, he climbed over a sand dune with a dry river at its feet, and he thought: as long as there is water in the sand, there will be life. He decided that if he walked down the dry river, he would find a water source, and if he had a water source, there might be a number of people. In order to prove that he was right, he walked down the dry river to its downstream, but there was only a small abandoned village called Dry Water Village, which was desolate, but there were still traces of the people who lived here. Thinking that back then, the river was flowing and the dry village was full of life. Later, the river broke off and gradually dried up. Without water, people cannot survive, so people have to leave their homes and find other ways to live. The village has been abandoned for a long time, has been covered with a thick layer of sand, he walked in the thick sand, his feet were suddenly buried in the sand a thing like dead wood tripped, "pop" fell to the ground, this time, he happened to be buried in the sand and he tripped off the ground, came a head-on collision, he was frightened all over the hair, he quickly got up, saw that this thing was a mummy, immediately had a lot of goosebumps on his body. He thought that after this man died, he would be like this after he was steamed and buried in the sand. At this moment, I suddenly heard a grotesque voice behind me - "You're finally here." He was startled and exclaimed, "Who?" ”
"Hahaha! Don't you ask who I am first? Who are you, I ask? How did you get to this ancient area? "Listen to this voice, but not the person, this voice is full of hoarseness, but also full of its inner strength. After Zhou Fan heard this, he knew that he was a master.
"Senior, in the next week, when following a group of people, unfortunately got lost here."
"If you can come here, it means that we have some fate, but if you can complete four things, I will see you. Otherwise, you'll have to dry up and die. ”
"Then you can say it, see if I have the ability."
"The first thing is, do you know martial arts? If so, please try a set of boxing techniques. ”
"In the next meeting, will you be ugly here?"
Zhou Fan was in an open space, slowly striking out the Five Elements Fist.
"The boxing technique is good, but the internal strength is insufficient."
"The second thing is that you jump to the top of the village and then soar upwards."
Zhou Fan quickly jumped onto a dead tree in this village according to the strength taught by Chi Jia, but he flew up less than two zhang before he fell.
"The strength is acceptable, but the strength is insufficient."
"The third thing is that if your mother needs you at home, and your country needs your help, which one will you choose?"
When Zhou Fan heard that this was a matter of loyalty and filial piety, he chose the country as the great filial piety. He said, "Choose the country." ”
"The last thing is that I set up a chess game on the stone platform at the edge of the village. It's an endgame of a seven-star gathering, since
Emperor Shun's brother created chess, and there has been this endgame, but all along, no one can crack it, can you break this chess game? ”
Zhou Fan heard this, this is a chess game, before the Xia Dynasty came, he often played Go with his friends, but he had never played much chess. But as soon as he thought that the chess should be the same, he used the method of playing Go to try it out when he played chess. When he came to the stone platform at the edge of the village, he did set up a chess game. The game is a dead end. Hongzi took one more step, and Lanzi lost. Zhou Fan looked at it and thought about many steps, but he couldn't save Lanzi's defeat, he was very depressed, but he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Senior, I am alone next to this chess, who are I playing with?" ”
"You don't care about this, as long as you move around Lanzi, the red son will follow."
When Zhou Fan heard this, the more strange he felt, could this red man really move on his own? Out of his curiosity, he moved Lanzi indiscriminately without thinking, don't you say it, this move made Hongzi a dilemma. After Lanzi moved, for a long time, Hongzi didn't move. Zhou Fan said: "Lanzi, I'm gone, why don't you see Hongzi leaving?" ”
All you can hear is "How can you go like this?" Didn't think about it at all? “
"Yes, I didn't think about winning or losing this game of chess at all, I was just curious about how that red son could automate."
"Then I'll show you."
With that, the red man got up automatically and took a step. Zhou Fan saw that this red son was really automatic, and thought to himself that this must be playing magic, but he was so close, why didn't he find any flaws. He didn't think much about it, Lanzi took another step, and the red son walked a step quickly, not finding any secret of Hongzi's movement. Zhou Fan thought to himself, as soon as I walked around Lanzi, when I saw the red word moving, I held it down with my hand to prevent him from moving, what should I do if I see it? So, he took another step Lanzi, he saw that there was a red son was about to move, he held it down with his hand, not to let it move, but he didn't expect that no matter how hard he tried the red son, he couldn't hold it down, and its moving power can be described as the power of a thousand catties. In this way, Zhou Fan walked a few steps, but unexpectedly, Lanzi came alive. At this time, he took a step forward as if he was pretending, and Hongzi did not leave. Zhou Fan said again: "Hongzi let's go, why don't you move again?" Zhou Fan screamed twice, but Hongzi still didn't leave. Zhou Fan saw that this chess game had obviously become a draw.
"Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to get out of the endgame of this seven-star gathering, but you can, and make this endgame a peace, this is still providence."
As soon as the words fell, I saw the stone slab "gurgling" to the side. Zhou Fan saw that there was a dry well under this board, and before he could think about it, an invisible force behind him pushed him into the well. Zhou Fan involuntarily screamed "Ah......", and he fell to the bottom of the well with the scream.
The bottom of the well is very large, there is soft wet mud everywhere, after Zhou Fan fell to the bottom of the well, there was no injury, and he also heard the sound of the stream flowing.
"You're here."
When Zhou Fan heard someone talking, he raised his head and was startled, only to see a thin old man with long black hair sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, and he didn't move. Zhou Fan thought to himself: "Is this person already dead and a mummy, is the voice I heard just now an illusion?" Zhou Fan was frightened in his heart, so he hurriedly kowtowed a few heads to the thin old man, and bowed: "I didn't mean to offend, please forgive me!" ”
"You didn't offend me, I asked you to come down."
This time, Zhou Fan heard it very clearly, the voice came from him, and it was very similar to the voice he heard outside the well, so Zhou Fan determined that they were the same person, that is, him.
"Why did the seniors fall here?"
"What's wrong here? There is not only water here, but also some yang-free fruits, which can fill hunger and prolong life, such as out of the well, it can only dry up and die. ”
Zhou Fan looked at the bottom of the well, and there was indeed a place where some fruits were planted. He asked again, "The predecessor was originally from the dry water village?" ”
"This is a long story, and since you and I are destined, I will tell you all about all these accidents. I am Huang Hu, a descendant of the Huanglong clan, and I think that the emperor Fuxi sealed the nine sons in Kyushu, my ancestor Huanglong sealed in the Central Plains, and the other eight sons were sealed around the Central Plains, and the formation of today's Chinese land. After years of pioneering and developing, the Central Plains is the most developed, and the rest are not as developed as the Central Plains, so there are some misunderstandings, among the descendants of its eight sons, some do not find the reason from themselves, but complain about the partiality of the ancestor Fuxi, and give me the best region of the Central Plains to my Huanglong clan, the most ferocious of its troubles is the black tiger of the descendants of the black dragon clan, a few years ago, the black tiger sent the big disciple Hei Fu, and led a group of people to think of the Central Plains to claim the king. After I got the news in Huashan, I didn't take anyone with me, and came to this dry village alone, which is an abandoned village on the road from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, and wanted to stop them from going to the Central Plains to kill innocents. I didn't want to do anything with them for two reasons, one was to move him with sincerity, so that they would not go to the Central Plains again. Second, I only practiced the internal skills of the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classics", and did not practice other external skills. On the surface, the book "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" is just a medical book, but in fact, it is an internal method, which is endlessly mysterious, broad and profound. A person's body regardless of energy and physical strength is limited, I have only practiced the "Yellow Emperor Neijing" internal strength in my life, and so far I have only practiced the seven layers of the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" internal strength, but its internal strength has been profound, I can move objects, see things and make sounds within a radius of 100 steps, as long as I work hard and practice qi. After you arrived in Kushui Village just now, everything you heard and saw related to me was done by me sitting here. Therefore, it is inconvenient for me to fight with Heifu and them, if they do, it is very likely to hurt people's lives and resentment in vain, which is contrary to my original intention. But unexpectedly, Hei Fu not only did not understand my painstaking intentions and did not listen to my advice, but instead took advantage of my inattention to point at my acupoints so that I could not be turbulent, and then broke my tendons and drove me into this dry well. ”
"It's really hateful to think about this black revenge, but he can't dominate the Central Plains martial arts anymore, he has been defeated by the Red Gang's men, according to their agreement in the rivers and lakes, he should return to the Western Regions and never set foot in the Central Plains again."
"Is the Red Gang you are talking about the Red Gang the leader of the Red Gang?"
"Yes, how do you know about Senior Huang?"
"This is very good, but it can be regarded as giving me a grievance, dissatisfied with you and saying that this Hu Hong violated the clan rules because of his wife six years ago and escaped death, so he ran to my Huashan to ask me for advice, and told me how his wife died, and said that his wife died because of the superstitious behavior of the old witch. So I said to him, 'There are too many things in the world that are not right, but as long as the original intention is good, it will be fine.' The old witch's original intention was to cure your wife's illness, but it was self-defeating and he killed her. This can't be blamed entirely on the old witch, let alone beat her to death. He can't go back to the Hu clan, so he wants to worship me as a teacher, I in view of his ancestor Hu Zuo and I have old friends, I promised to keep him, but I told him that I only practice the "Yellow Emperor Neijing" internal skills, not external skills, how many apprentices to me, can not stand my compression, just give up halfway, I asked him can stand it? He said he could stand it. But he couldn't stand it anymore after practicing the second layer of the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classics", and I had already seen that I couldn't help but force him, so I said to him: 'You can practice the "Yellow Emperor's Outer Classics"," and he said: "Master, I will continue the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classics", not the "Yellow Emperor's Outer Classics." I said: 'Don't deceive yourself anymore, I have seen what is on your mind, why are you so upset lately?' He listened and smiled. He took over the "Yellow Emperor Outer Classic", after practicing for a period of time, plus the second layer of the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" inner strength and mental method, he felt that his martial arts had made great progress, so he proposed to me to go down the mountain, to create a red gang, I thought that he had no intention of staying in Huashan, and it was useless to avoid being strong, so he agreed to him to go down the mountain, and said to him: 'After you go down the mountain, combine your ancestor Hu Zuo's set of "Yellow Emperor Outer Classic" boxing methods to practice together, I believe that your foreign kung fu will be good. However, you will not oppose the creation of gangs and factions as a teacher, but you must not cause trouble and harm the people. When he said yes, he went down the mountain. My Huanglong clan has been generous and benevolent to people for generations, which may be one of the reasons why the Central Plains has been able to make great progress and increase its population. He was able to defeat Hei Fu, and it was finally in vain that he was a teacher. ”
"Oh, I see. I also met Hu Hong's gang leader in the Central Plains, so that his long-lost child was reunited. In order to thank me, he gave me the imitation of the boxing technique of his ancestor's "Yellow Emperor Waijing", so you might as well show it to you! ”
Zhou Fan took it out of his backpack and gave it to Huang Hu to take a look. Huang Hu couldn't help but read on his lips: "It's all right, it's all right, this is no different from the real thing." Zhou Fan looked at Huang Hu puzzled.
"I have many internal and external classics of the Yellow Emperor here, and there is a lack of boxing methods of the "Yellow Emperor's Outer Classics", I think I wanted to get this from Hu Zuo back then, but Hu Zuo rejected it many times, why didn't I think of making an imitation at that time? This will have you, and this imitation is complete. But my destiny has come, and I am going to be immortal, so what's the use of asking for all this now? ”
"Huang seniors, although there are years, but the strength is still sufficient, the internal strength is profound, although you are inconvenient, the younger generation can carry you out of the well and return to Huashan."
"Internal strength and life are two different things, and a person who practices the exercises can delay his life, but he must not prevent the end of his life. I knew that I was running out, my bones were thin, and time was running out. During this time, I often think about some things, if you don't come, I will die in obscurity here, I have been practicing for many years the seven layers of the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classics" internal exercises, will go with me, if the Yellow Emperor's internal and external classics are not discovered, they may be rejected from the world, what a pity. This Yellow Emperor's internal and external classics have many works, and it condenses the painstaking efforts and wisdom of many ancestors. Now it's okay, you and I are destined, you have completed the four things I designated, plus I look at your face, you are kind-hearted, and you are definitely not a traitor. Therefore, I have decided to pass on to you the inner strength of this body. ”
After saying that, Huang Hu flew into the air, put his head on Zhou Fan's head, and passed on his gong to Zhou Fan. Almost without waiting for Zhou Fan to react, he had already formed a posture of transmitting power. At this time, Zhou Fan felt an indescribable expansion of his body, and his internal organs seemed to explode. When Huang Hu was transmitting the exercises, he vaguely felt that there was an internal force in Zhou Fan's body opposing it, and he quickly forced the opposing internal force to one place, so it took about an hour to transmit the gong that only took half an hour. Huang Hu has exhausted his internal strength, and fell from the top of Zhou Fan's head, at this time his long hair has changed from black to yellow-white, and his head is also drooping, exhausted, he said to Zhou Fan in a very weak voice: "It seems that you also have an internal force in your body, but it is not your self-generated internal force, but an external incoming, fortunately, this internal force is relative to the internal force I transmitted, not a confrontation, I have kept it outside." I have now completed the last thing in my body, you are the last apprentice I have accepted, and the first person I have passed on to others. Call me Master. ”
When Zhou Fan heard this, he cried bitterly, kowtowed to Huang Hu one after another, and kept shouting, "Master!" Master! ”
"The book "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Scripture", because of my need to practice the internal strength of the heart, I carry it with me, now I am here for you to take it, you have the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" of the seven successes, you have to continue to complete the last three percent according to the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" of the internal strength of the heart, this is the teacher's final requirement for you. Another part of the "Yellow Emperor's Outer Classics" I hid under the three ginseng trees under the Xianyan Valley in Huashan, whether you can get it depends on your creation. There is also a map out of the route of the withered tree here...... Huang Hu held a map in his hand, and he could no longer speak.
Huang Hu died, and Zhou Fan buried him with infinite grief.
