Chapter 9: The Secret Cave of Laojun Mountain
Li Dazhuang and Huashan master and apprentice stood in front of a waterfall, admiring the beautiful scenery in front of them.
Huashan senior brother Deng Zichong picked up the wine gourd and drank a few sips, lifted the iron knife, and began to practice the knife technique, "Xiaobai, look at it, this is the Huashan knife technique!"
Xiao Bai nodded, the mysterious bracelet on his left wrist "gurgling", the voice seemed very weak next to the waterfall, only Xiaobai understood that this bracelet was helping him quickly learn knife skills, because the "grunt" sound was actually a language, Xiaobai didn't know why, he could understand, maybe it was because of this strange bracelet.
After a short time, Deng Zichong finished practicing the whole set of knife techniques, and said with a smile: "Xiaobai, practice hard, I hope you can practice it thoroughly." ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your advice!" Xiao Bai secretly memorized most of the moves, "If there is anything I don't understand later, I have to ask Senior Brother for advice." ”
"I can also teach you, I'm familiar with this set of knife techniques!" said the third senior brother Gu Tianlei proudly.
"I really envy you Huashan disciples, if only my master could teach us more martial arts. "Da Zhuang said.
"No, Senior Brother Da Zhuang, don't you Lao Junshan practice martial arts?"
"Yes, it's all Tai Chi swordsmanship, Tai Chi boxing and the like, which are purely for health preservation. Moreover, Master usually teaches us more about cultivating our nature. ”
Xiong Zhangmen said with a smile: "Tai Chi swordsmanship and Tai Chi boxing are actually a profound martial arts master! Shao Yun Zhenren of Wudang today also uses Tai Chi swordsmanship, and he was defeated in the last martial arts conference!"
Deng Zichong took a few more sips of "gurgling", but the wine was gone, "It's really not fun, I'll go back and continue to drink good wine later!" he said, picked up a pound of stone and threw it at the waterfall in front of him. It was a long time before a dull voice came. "No, it's weird. The elder brother threw a few more stones in a row, and the situation was almost the same.
"Master, junior brother, it's strange that there is a cave behind that waterfall. Da Zhuang, do you know?" asked Deng Zichong.
"Senior Brother Deng, I grew up on the mountain since I was a child, and I know every stone and tree very well, I really don't know about the cave behind this waterfall, and I have never heard Master talk about it. Li Dazhuang replied.
Below the waterfall was a deep mountain pool, and Xiong Zhuo said, "I'll go and have a look." As he spoke, he picked up the Purple Cloud Divine Skill, stepped on his toes and walked into the air, floating into the secret hole behind the waterfall like a fairy.
Da Zhuang was stunned: "What a handsome light skill! ”
Xiong Zhuo entered the cave, although there was a waterfall to cover it, the hole was not deep, so he could still see the situation in the cave vaguely. There are some strange words on the walls of the cave, and it feels like it is very ancient characters, and I don't know it at all.
Xiong Zhuo came out of the cave again and brought the other four into the secret cave one after another.
Deng Zichong: "Sure enough, there is something strange behind the waterfall! I found out, I am really a genius." ”
"It's just that we don't know these words at all. Li Dazhuang shook his head and said.
"No, these are the moral scriptures in their mouths, right?" Gu Tianlei guessed.
"Gollum" ...... The mysterious bracelet began to remember again.
"Xiaobai, are you hungry, I heard your stomach growl? Why don't we go back and tell my master first." Maybe he knew something here. Da Zhuang said.
"Okay, let's go back first. Xiong Zhuo also spoke, the key is that he can't read the words on the wall at all.
"Storage!" the bracelet passed to Xiaobai, and the others didn't notice it at all. Xiaobai thought to himself: "I seem to be able to recognize these words, but I feel jerky and difficult to understand, and the bracelet was inadvertently written down." After all, it's someone else's thing, even if it's a martial arts cheat, it's not easy to practice secretly. It may really be a true scripture coveted by the man in black. No matter, let's go back to Laojun Mountain and look at it again, let's not talk about it for the time being, so as not to really cause disputes in the rivers and lakes. ”
When everyone returned to the sect, it was already meal time. Li Shangshan smiled and said, "Distinguished guests, please feel free to sit down." He took Xiong Zhuo's hand and sat down. The others also sat down in turn.
"Master, the apprentice has something to report. ”
"Da Zhuang, don't worry, let's drink and eat food first. Li Shangshan picked up the wine in his hand, "Come, Lao Li, I respect everyone!"
"I've been thirsty for a long time. Deng Zichong drank it all, "Good wine!"
"Senior Brother Deng's good taste! This wine is made from my Laojun Mountain Spring for many years, and Master is reluctant to drink it on weekdays, and he can only drink a few sips after the blessings of the four, haha......" Li Dazhuang said with a smile.
While everyone was enjoying the food and wine, twelve men in black went back and forth, blocking the entrance of the hall.
Li Shangshan was also very depressed, thinking: Why did these plague gods come back again?
The man in black at the head said fiercely: "Okay, you Li Shangshan, you keep saying that you don't have the Tao Te Ching, what is this!" threw down a roll of rice paper, and the black ink on the paper was densely printed with strange words.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this paper is not something I sent! I don't know the words on the paper. Li Shangshan was puzzled.
"Master Li, you don't have to pretend to be stupid. This Tao Te Ching was found by your disciple Li Dazhuang. ”
"Da Zhuang, what's going on?" Li Shangshan was very angry.
"Master, this is what I wanted to tell you earlier...... We stumbled upon strange writing on the stone wall behind the waterfall, but we didn't know it at all! These men in black followed us and stole the words with black ink and rice paper. ”
"Don't pretend to be garlic, old fellow, we were ordered by the prince to find the secret of the Tao Te Ching, acquaintances, quickly interpreted these words, we are not to blame in the past. ”
"You deceive people too much, it is difficult for strong people, we really don't recognize those words, and we don't know what the moral scriptures are!" Li Shangshan was a little excited in his words.
"Toast, don't eat, eat and drink!" In a blink of an eye, the man in black put a sharp dagger on Li Shangshan's neck. At the same time, Xiong Zhuo Zhuo secretly carried the Purple Cloud Divine Skill.
The disciples of Laojun Mountain and Huashan all held their breath, extremely nervous! The other eleven black-clothed men also pulled out their respective weapons, some with swords, some with swords, and some with sticks...... Surround the disciples of the two factions.
When the saber was rattling, I saw a black shadow flash, and then the twelve black-clothed people stared at each other in surprise, lying on the ground softly, all of them lost their breath!
Xiong Zhuo carried the ninth-layer Purple Cloud Divine Skill, and in the blink of an eye, he hit the death hole of the twelve black-clothed men and harvested twelve lives with his bare hands. It's scary!!
"Master Li, this is your faction's, and I will return it to you. As he spoke, he gave the rice paper printed with strange characters in the hand of the man in black to Li Shangshan.
"Brother Xiong, thank you for saving your life! It's just that these black-clothed people were all sent by the prince, and there will be no peace in Laojun Mountain in the future. ”
"So I took their lives, everyone present must not leak the news, there is no evidence, and there is nothing to do about it. Xiong Zhuo said loudly.
Everyone didn't have the heart to drink and eat, so Li Shangshan arranged for his apprentices to dispose of the twelve corpses properly.
"Master Li, our master and apprentice went out to Wudang, we have important things to do, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, thank you for your hospitality, don't leave it at that. Xiong Zhuo said.
Li Shangshan: "Xiongzhangmen, you see it's getting late, let's rest in our sect tonight." How about leaving tomorrow morning?"
"It's better to obey your fate, disciples, let's stay for a while and go to Wudang early tomorrow morning. ”
"Yes! The three apprentices said.
