And the wise man uses it, the shape of strength and weakness between the nineteen paths, the momentum of death and life between the ninety-eight, and beyond the nineteen and ninety-eight, the strength and weakness of death and life can be cycled in infinity. Eat all day long, get the fragrance and do it, then the deer are still at present. This quote comes from the Preface to the Picture of the Elephant Play.

******

Speaking back to the chairman of the banquet hall, Mrs. Song has opened the sandalwood box, and a ring of jasper lies flat on the embroidered silk in the box. Qiao Wen watched it, and saw its jade along the dark carving, "five grains abundant, uncle and grandson inscription" and other vermilion seals, and knew that this jade is the treasure of the Taoist palace "blue water warm jade".

Mrs. Song then left the table, her voice was soft and resolute, and she said slowly: "The so-called treasure in the world, those who can get it." Since many martial arts people are here, my Mrs. Song does not allow idlers to gossip, the woman is afraid of things, and looks down on no one in my sect, if you have the heart to see this jade, please stand up and compete with the slave family! With that, he slowly pulled out a very thin and long steel wire from the edge of the placket of the hanging sleeves. I saw that the steel wire was thin and tough, shining between flashes, and there were sharp ends, which should be called a sword.

Under the pinch of Madame Song's slender and powerful jade hand, the steel wire was lightly coiled in the palm of her fingers, and soon turned into the silhouette of a sword-dancing woman, and then the fingers flicked, and the sword style began to change constantly.

Yue Nu swordsmanship, according to legend, is the Spring and Autumn Zhao Guoshan sword virgin created, the reason why it has been passed down through the ages, not its ninety-nine eighty-one style, dense and delicate and endlessly changing, dripping water does not reveal and pervasive sword moves, but cares about its inner spirit, the outside shows comfort, cloth shape Hou Qi, and the lost sword will of God, just like the former virgin and the king of Yue on the way of the sword, its way is very small and easy, its meaning is very quiet and deep.

Qiao Wenxian only slightly infected Mrs. Song, who did not let her eyebrows, the feminine spirit of both rigidity and softness, did not want her words to be true, the connotation of the sword came out, and the performance was even more authentic than the Yue Nu swordsmanship that had not been seen for a hundred years, and the glass of wine between her lips trembled uncontrollably, soaking the corners of her clothes.

Mrs. Song was stunned and could not hide Qiao Wen's stunned gaffe, and she held her hand steadily, and the sword door was first opened, and the steel wire tail was already shaking, pointing at Qiao Wen. She weighed and moved, knowing that Qiao Wen was the strongest person in the banquet martial arts, so she chose to call the battle, if she won half a chip, everyone would be speechless, and she would not have the courage to win the treasure again.

Qiao Wen looked at Mrs. Song's beautiful and undoubted eyes, sighed helplessly, took out his long-standing weapon "Wood Crow", threw it in his hand, and said quietly: "You should be Yuan Gong, and the wooden card will turn into bamboo branches, so I can't help but try the sword." The implication of the words is to borrow the sword of the old ape Lin Zhuhua to try the song of the Yue Nu, implying that he accepts his challenge.

The wooden crow, originally a soldier throwing weapon, with two or three feet of solid wooden planks, sharpened and shaped at both ends, and arrows and stones, mostly used for sailors. And Qiao Wen's hand of this "wooden crow" is made of Kunlun Langji wood, stronger than steel, although only two feet long, like a judge token, but it has a great origin, on which there is the emperor's imperial pen "the sky has eyes" four words, in order to reward Qiao Wen's high driving skills, with the power of the sword above.

Mrs. Song was not moved, and at the moment of concentration, the sword trick in her left hand was leading, her lips were slightly chanting sword songs, her wrist turned to the filament, her body was moving, her sharp edge was sprinkled with sword rain, and her sword was like the wind. It is the trick of the integration of the nine styles in the Yue sword "Jade Rabbit Xian River Gui Yaoxiang".

Qiao Wenjian's impatiens juice dyed armor gradually blurred into a fluttering red line, and the silk sword swept away into a faint shadow, and after a moment, it had been flooded into the light and rain of silky silver plates. He first learned the swordsmanship of the Yue Nu, how could he make a big support, holding the hand of the wooden crow, waving the wheel into a shield, and retreating steadily under his feet, avoiding the edge of his sword curtain. How do you know that Mrs. Song's sword energy, like a charming red rabbit eye, the slightest mess of devouring, the momentum is like the laurel shadow in the moon, entangled like flying, Qiao Wen has no heart to try the sword, depending on the life and death fight, a move and a deep seal, as many as nine steps back, seeing the forced into the north corner of the hall, suddenly moving, the board slapped down, the wooden crow on its "eye of the sky" has been skillfully put on the steel wire thin sword, the sword qi stopped, the silver rain dispersed, and the beautiful and heroic Mrs. Song figure appeared.

It turned out that Qiao Wen strictly guarded the retreat, and had already displayed the trick in his seven Tang hands "Vertical and Capture", the left hand was divided, and the five fingers were calculated to move Mrs. Song's sword and the wind moved, how did you know that Mrs. Song's sword was as fast as light, as thin as silk, dense as numb, and it was impossible to grasp it after the first strike, only under the strict guard, after retreating nine steps, waiting for Mrs. Song's style to complete the opportunity to change, insight into its sword sense of qi, only to get the right hand to divide, the wooden crow returned to the sky, and in one fell swoop will crack the Yue Sword Nine Combo Stop.

Mrs. Song also felt that her swordsmanship had been extremely deterrent, which convinced everyone present, so she took out the silk sword in the wooden crow, held it with both hands and handed it to Qiao Wen, changed her appearance, and said with a smile: "The slave family is ugly, or Shugong is slightly better." ”

Qiao Wenxin took it, casually slanted it on his waist, and replied: "Mrs. Song is too modest, everyone is evenly divided." He was secretly fortunate in his heart, if the place of the competition was in the wilderness and wasteland, not the hall and the bureau, and the Yue Nu Sword was not a nine-style combo, but a combination of more than eighteen, then Qiao Wen's ability to resist the wind would be out of reach and uncontrollable, and the victory or defeat would be unknown.

The onlookers were in an uproar, and even the three murderers of Mount Tai, who were sitting at the banquet at the farthest south end and were playing chess with the three sisters of Peach Blossom, couldn't help but secretly praise it. It turned out that at the beginning of the battle between Mrs. Song and Qiao Wen, the peach blossom Sanshu, who followed Mrs. Song to the inner hall, had gone straight to the south end of the hall, and the table of the three murderers of Mount Tai was feasting.

"The three seniors, the Lord has instructed them, come to receive the teachings, continue the battle of Summer Bay, and correct the style of my Divine Maiden Sect." Tao Baibai is the first to speak.

"The fan of my three daughters and the smoke of the three elders, it is difficult to show their benefits in this banquet, it is better to fight, how about playing a game with each other?" Tao Xian'er continued.

"Regardless of their victory or defeat, my sect master promised the three elders that he would go to Laoshan Mountain to personally take the lost soul as a gift for the sixtieth birthday of the three elders." The peach double tail is as good as it gets.

Mount Tai three murders coincided with its feast, but also heard the wind, originally for the previous firelight of the things, came to find the goddess Zong bad luck, now the three Shu to show the generosity of the generous courtesy, and there is compassion for the old steps can go down, try to imagine the sale of the summer bay, all because of the flying disaster, is the loss of the heart, so the embarrassment of the heart has been gone.

The three murderers of Mount Tai looked at each other and decided, and the old man with black and white hair "came from the east" and said: "So good, the three of us can stand by and watch, and rest assured that we will play chess with your three little women." ”

The attendants have brought out a chess seat into the table, Mount Tai three fierce eyes, it is a nineteen vertical and horizontal grid of the game of chess, seventeen soldiers will be lined up with chess pieces, "Donglai" will smile and say: "Seven countries elephant play, very good." ”

Seven Kingdoms Elephant Opera, also known as Ancient Game Chess. Its chess game is nineteen rows longitudinal and horizontal, and the soldiers and generals of the seven countries are listed with twenty out of one hundred, and on Monday, there are seven out of ten in each of the seven countries. Zhou Huang, Qin Bai, Chu Chi, Qi Qing, Yan Hei, Han Dan, Wei Lu, Zhao Zi. Each of the seven kingdoms has a general, one partial, one pen, a line, a cannon, a bow, a crossbow, two swords, four swords, and four horsemen. The game is the same as Go, and the game is like a play.

This Seven Kingdoms Elephant Drama is the joy of the three murderers of Mount Tai on weekdays, the goddess sect where the three sisters of the peach blossom are located has involved in the personnel information of the various sects, and has done what they like, the three murderers of Mount Tai are full of hearts and minds and are difficult to refuse, why not.

Peach Blossom Sanshu sat cross-legged at the table with peace of mind, set up the chess pieces of all countries, and said quietly: "The two sides are each holding two countries, how about the game of 'Six Nations Cooperation'?" "What he wants to tell him is that he has always been the daughter of the goddess.

The three murderers of Mount Tai all understood the meaning of their words, and the east came to the first place, and the "rider" moved closer to the "sword", and there were also witty words: "Then you have to see, the person who cuts the deer with the knife and enters the Xianyang Qin Palace." The words implied that the Qin State, which knew that it wanted to join the enemy, was equated with the Dark Flower Thieves and understood the true purpose of this banquet.

Tao Baibai saw that his sword and two chess pieces were in a rough corner, and he wanted to break through the Qin realm, but he started the "partial son" and went straight to the center of Zhou, still hiding a mysterious way: "Everyone is like chess, and it has entered its game." ”

So far, the people of the two sides have exchanged chess in this way, each has its own moves, and the "Seven Kingdoms Elephant Show" has been launched together. In addition to the game round, the three murderers of Peach Blossom and Taishan also watched the movement, Pang Yu and Sima Ziyi sword unraveled the nine links, Qiao Wen and Mrs. Song fought with the sword, Tong Qianjing and Ruan A Dolphin Horn Drinking Fighting Skills, etc., all of which are in view.

At this time, there was a loud bang in the center of the banquet hall, and it was from Tong Ruan's competition for that venue. When the two of them fought for the third game, Ruan Agu drank two or three sips into his stomach, suddenly felt dizzy, and the next plate was floating, and he knew that the first two bursts consumed too much internal strength and true qi, and the spring fragrance wine had another attack, and the body and mind were dizzy and drowsy. He peeked and saw that Tong Qianjing was still drinking as before, and without noticing, he stepped up and drank again and again. After a while, the two altars shattered, both drank to a draw, and according to the rules of the game, there were opportunities for each other to attack and defend.

The onlookers couldn't take their eyes off it, but Ruan Luoqi, who was sitting there, knew that this round of battle was the key to victory or defeat between the two, and his eyes rolled continuously, thinking about the possible situation and the way to deal with it. I saw Ruan Agu's feet paused again, the ankle ring sounded again, and the "whale squirting rainbow" of the miraculous skill of "sea cucumber belly" was running, the chest and abdomen were distended again and again, and the throat was spitting out the wine column, and several turbulent currents hit Tong Qianjing's whole body. And Tong Qianjing's "Soul Condensation Arm" has long been saturated, the muscles and arms are violently swinging, the green muscles and veins are flying freely, seeing Ruan Agu's first momentum, he can no longer hold it, the wolf's eyes suddenly flashed malice, his demeanor was as hideous as death, and he howled and roared continuously.

Tong Qianjing's arm did not touch the wine sword issued by Ruan Agu, and it had been scattered one after another, splashing scattered, and many of them had turned off several lights in the sky, and they had fallen into the ground to build bricks. Seeing that his condensing arms were close to the shoulder blade collarbone, Ruan Agu had no choice but to fold his arms and chest, raise his knees and buckle obliquely, and mix his whole body, which was the complete defensive position of Tui Shanzhang, "Heavenly King Pagoda".

I only heard the loud noise, and the true qi of the spirit condensing arm crashed into the mixed gas hard body like a heavy wall and solid rock like a comet in the sky, only to see Tong Qianjing's toes spinning, his body twisting half a circle, had broken through the close body defense of Ruan Agu, hooked the strong arm of his thick neck, and threw his huge body, thrown in the banquet of Ruan Luoqi's gang, for a while, people turned over, and Ruan Agu had foamed at the mouth and fainted to the ground.

Ruan Luoqi was ashamed and angry, Mrs. Guan Song and Qiao Wenzheng did not deal with this, secretly made gestures, and his subordinates helped Tong Qianjing to go away, but he walked by the crowd, his waist was flaming red, and he flew towards Li Yutang, who was shouting wine and winning. He saw that he had lost his skills in the horn drinking fight, so he had to make a move and took the opportunity to make the kidnapping plan he had drawn up before. It's a pity that Mrs. Song is watching all the time, listening to all directions, loving the king's cut, and naturally the sword and body are one and fly away to save her. And Qiao Wen would not let Li Zhutang have an accident in his private affairs, so he followed Mrs. Song quickly to Li Yutang, who was located in the west seat of the banquet hall, for fear that the situation would change abruptly.

Outside the shipbuilding, the wind wants to be quiet, the flag is about to stop, the waning moon is dark, the stars are evil, just when Gao Fei and Sima Ziyi cast a sword to untie the ring, the three Shu and the three murderers are talking about the game, Qiao Wen and Mrs. Song are flying to save people, and the rest of the people are focused on the center of the banquet hall.

This person is a flower thief and jade waist slave who is dressed up in disguise and runs away in green clothes. He pretended to be busy in the inner hall, wandering behind the door from time to time, peeking through the curtain to see the situation of the banquet hall. When Mrs. Song entered to take the treasure, she didn't know the depth of her kung fu, and there were peach blossoms and three sisters to protect the left when she was dark. And Tong Ruan Jiao was drinking in a hearty mood, and Song Qiao was close to the jade, if he was bold enough to take it, it was inevitable that he would be caught if he missed. When Song Qiao fought, he was heartbroken by the martial arts of the two, watching the battle wholeheartedly, and had no desire to steal jade.

The jade-waisted slave knew that it was a rare opportunity to take advantage of the chaos, so he could not let it go, so his blackened arm had slowly stretched into the blue water and warm jade in the sandalwood box. It's a pity that its steps are too light, like a cat and fox landing silently, his face is wooden and there is no smile, Qiao Wen, who is alert, has swept into his eyes, and has never turned around, his palm inadvertently bent his claws, and his phantom arm wipes a wonderful arc, driving the sleeves to float lightly and then waving, it is the "vertical and horizontal capture" in his Qitang hand that attacks the jade waist slave.

The jade waist slave saw that his fingers touched the blue water and warm jade, and the heart of stealing the jade was just happy, so he felt the undercurrent of the Xuan Jin behind him, and the weight was deep and the back, he wanted to take the jade in a breath, and the foot was not in time to shift the shape and transposition, and instantly twisted the waist to the side, and the internal breath was replaced, and the palm of the retracted hand turned into a fist, the fist turned into a claw, and the claw turned into a palm.

Qiao Wenshi's "vertical and horizontal capture of the air", the remote illusion of the empty cut of the five qi screen, and the jade waist slave made it "picking chrysanthemums in the south of the fence and the autumn wind" burst into hand, for a while the pop, the huge air flow leaked out of chaos, the banquet table was inevitably overturned and broken, the box was broken and the jade was off, and it also flew.

The jade waist slave saw it, retreated with the momentum, and the body was as light as a leaf, flying on his back, and then the empty body, flying cross-legged, chic turning, and finally the ankle had coincidentally hooked the giant flower and bird palace lamp tripod suspended from the dome of the banquet hall, and the arms stretched outward, wanting to catch the blue water and warm jade that had turned into a green rainbow and vibrated in the air.

At the same time, Mrs. Song just rescued her husband from danger with her sword and repelled Ruan Luoqi's double-pronged sneak attack, and she had no time to stop it, and Qiao Wen's internal friction was huge, and the others were far from it. Said that it was too late, and the jade waist slave had heard the sound of the buzzing sword weapon breaking through the air on the side of his ear, and he didn't think twice about stepping on the lantern stand of the turning palace, swinging its lamp body in front of people, only listening to the swishing sound of stabbing, piercing through the palace lamp, and pecking deep into the opposite beam, for a while the lights of the whole audience were dim and not bright.

The black light sword body, the swallowtail sword hilt, and the sword that shook in Liang was thrown by Gao Fei. After Qiao Wen and the jade waist slave confronted him before, he heard the sound and looked sideways and recognized the person who usually looked, the person in Tsing Yi ran the hall, and the trick he made was exactly the same as the jade waist slave who fought to the death in the "Peach Blossom Spring" in Pinxia Bay. After seeing the upside-down lampstand, wanting to seize the treasure jade, so he did not hesitate to break the sword nine consecutive links to admit defeat, the right hand sword high throw round over the head, sideways left hand back to the waist, the body sword has become the "west window to look at the moon" style, and then the right foot half of the front broken brick momentum, the left sword has raised the arm from the palm, such as a hundred steps through the arrow of the Yang shot to the jade waist slave of the red heart target.

The jade-waisted slave dodged the "shuttle style" of the thirteen sword moves of the swallow that Gao Fei relied on to become famous, and broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that it was hopeless to win the jade, and no longer fell in love with the war, thinking about running away, wanting to break through the top and pass away. I didn't know that there was a gurgling sound, and I saw the cold light at the four corners of the dome approaching, bringing down a silver light net, which was Fan Su and Xiaoman in the dark of the banquet hall who started the mechanism and dropped the flying crossbow silkworm cover that had been arranged earlier. When the jade-waisted slave saw it, he struck it with the wind and wanted to break it, but he didn't know that his net regained its strength and vibrated it, and he was forced to fall down.

Qiao Wen had a thrilling and unsafe blue water and warm jade, and he was relieved to accept it, and began to look up at it, only to see the jade waist slave spinning like a tuo, and his body shape had turned into a shadow phantom wind, and it was airdropped in the central field, and was in the crowd of the Phoenix Tail Gang who were fighting with Tong Qianjing.

This trick is the jade waist slave's "intentional between flowers" martial arts "turn into spring mud to protect flowers", it comes from the "six Ding Liujia" in the "wind horn" and "Dunjia" two techniques, through its evolution of the mental tricks, still in the fallen leaves and flying sand, the long grass and muddy realm can play to the fullest. If you enter, you can separate the shadow, attack it unprepared, and retreat, you can hide the traces and escape for ten miles.

Now the jade waist slave has no choice but to save himself, although the power has been sharply reduced, but such as the green belt light smoke through the patrol world, the people who are close are all high and low falls, such as the eighteen falls of the clothes, many hit the pillar and the forehead is cracked, and the bones are scattered. Ruan Luoqi allowed this person to kill more gangs, the fiery red phoenix fork vibrated loudly, and he swam to join the battle group. On the other side, Mrs. Song leaned over and whispered, Li Yutang nodded again and again, and then raised her voice: "Qianjing, kill!" ”

Tong Qianjing is suffering from only defending without attacking, and under the confusion of the soul, he wiped the short knife on his waist with his hand, and a stream of blue light and blue shadow flew away. The "comeback" of the jade waist slave is no longer as smooth as smoke, and is distorted by its knife shadow to distort the branch, fortunately, when the game is just now, the feet and feet have secretly moved the Xuangong, only to cast the latter style "escape from the ground", and the cracked bricks are broken down to the second floor.

Qiao Wenke sighed that the jade waist slave was cunning and cunning, and he was not chaotic in the air, and he could set up the seats in the Goddess Sect, Sima Ziyi and Gao Fei in the east corner, Ruan Luoqi and many gangs in the west corner, Taishan in the south corner, Pansu Xiaoman and Hu Dianchen in the north corner, and found another way to escape from the siege. Qiao Wen was also calm, and when he saw that many people with strong martial arts wanted to chase him, he clapped his hands and said: "Everyone, Shao'an, poor Kou Mo chase, there are my six doors 'dark department' to greet him, it is better to sit down and drink and wait for good news." ”

Qiao Wen's words were as promised, like packing tickets, everyone had to go back to the table with curiosity, and the audience was silent. I only listened to the gathering and incense hall under the floor, and after the sound of the non-gold and non-wood striking, seven people rushed up from the hole in turn, with a wood-faced beast on their faces, and red sleeves in black clothes, in front of Qiao Wen, they bowed their heads with their fists together: "The four subordinates of the dark department, the five people who lead the Tianzi class, meet Shugong, the thief has entered the trapped 'Seven Tricks Lock Heart Array', please give the order." ”

Qiao Wen nodded and stood up, nodded and said, "Just you rats, ugly cows, and two Xiao, who will come to the rest?" ”

The dark "sub-rat" replied: "Yinhu looks at the eaves, and Chenlong dives." I called it to appear. After speaking, a whistle sounded, and in a moment, everyone heard the sound of a light tap on one of the panes of the ship's building, and a person in a flying tiger mask had climbed the window edge upside down and bowed to Qiao Wen. And a little farther out of the window, on the squeaky water wheel page, the whole body of water leans on the hardcover, and the water is wet on the mask of the dragon, and he is kneeling on half a knee to show Qiao Wen.

Everyone sighed, it turned out that the six doors had been premeditated, no wonder Qiao Wen was as stable as Mount Tai, and the jade waist slave thief could be said to be difficult to fly and useless to enter the water. It seems that the second floor of Chunxiang Building has already been set up with people and horses, and everyone thinks that no matter what changes are born underneath, how much the jade waist slave struggles, it must be something in the six doors.

Qiao Wen thought that after four days of dark flower action, he finally made a gain, although the dirty money was hopeless, he also collected two pieces of jade, half of which was finished. He couldn't help but secretly thank Li Yutang, Mrs. Song, and they cooperated seamlessly, and they had to do it. It turned out that Qiao Wen had never gone to the banquet, and when he was still in the official post house, Li Yutang handed over the report of Xia Wan, and he had already said a series of schemes, and the goddess sect and their scattered blue water and warm jade would appear in Chunxiang Building, leading them into the game, and feasting the major martial arts people, creating a chaotic situation over time, so that they had the opportunity to steal jade and lure them to show up and capture them. At that time, Qiao Wen also received a report from the six door carrier pigeons, and the dark department had sent support, thinking that the inside and outside should be combined, and if there was a feasible opportunity, he agreed to let it go. In fact, when I think back to the banquet, Mrs. Song can be described as a fake drama and real martial arts, worthy of the style of a goddess and a woman, and Li Yutang can be said to be bold and reckless, which is very much in line with his true character as a businessman, and the risk is proportional to the reward.

Qiao Wen had the Dao King in his body for a limited time, and he didn't want to stay longer, so he moved his body, and after an order, everyone went downstairs through the six doors. Everyone wanted to chase down the stairs to watch, but they were all blocked by Li Yutang with the affairs of the official mansion, and Mrs. Song palmed the whole perch banquet to continue, and the song and dance resumed again, and everyone had no choice but to return to the table, and many people still did not extinguish their hearts, and looked out the window sideways.

I saw that Qiao Wen and others had gone out of the building, and four of them carried a black flat-topped sedan chair and flew away, and it was even more thrilling, it seemed that there were seven spears that had pierced the heart like a chaotic arrow, and the outside was deep without a handle, and everyone couldn't help but fantasize about what a tragic death state the jade waist slave in the sedan chair was.

At this time, the clouds are open and the moon is boundless, the cool autumn breeze is lettering, and in a moment, Qiao Yan and the others will not enter the cold water of the smoke cage and disappear in the night starry color.
