Chapter Twenty-Nine: Wuju
Saying that, Zhou Tong returned to the room and saw that Yue Fei was not asleep, so he asked: "Fei'er, in the dream, is it Chen Yan's ancestor who personally passed on the gong?" β
Ladies and gentlemen, the Huashan Sleeping Immortal Sect is different from other factions, after the foundation is built, the transmission and succession are carried out in sleep. When Yue Fei was married, Elder Chuangong and Zhou Tong were only responsible for setting up the formation to communicate, and what information the person receiving the gong could communicate depended on personal fate. The specific ceremony was described in detail when Zhou Dong gave Yue Yun the empowerment later.
"It was the old ancestor Chen who personally passed on the gong to me." Yue Fei replied: "In addition to helping me condense the golden pill, he also passed on two tricks, one is 'open chaos and judge yin and yang', and the other is 'the way of sincerity'." I learned the first trick, but I still haven't grasped the latter trick. β
Zhou Tong's face was happy, and he said: "This trick 'open chaos, judge yin and yang' is a wonderful way to listen to strength, as long as you can rely on the opponent's weapon or body, you can immediately know the opponent's force and hitting parts." You just competed with Master Zhiming, and you used this trick too. β
Yue Fei even said yes, with a look of shame.
Zhou Tong continued: "It has been more than a hundred years since the Huashan Sect was established, and the old ancestor has only personally taught this trick to one person, and he is Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty. I've been thinking about it for years, and I've only scratched the surface. It seems that the old ancestor is indeed partial to you. β
Seeing that Yue Fei nodded silently, Zhou Tong continued: "This 'Sincere Way' is very special, and it refers to an ability that can be perceived in advance. Before you met Niu Gao in Chaocaogang and saw Miss Nie in Liquan Mountain, you mentioned your perception to the teacher, and the teacher couldn't believe it at that time, because this was already a fairy method. The so-called 'sincere way, you can know in advance', 'don't hear it, don't see it, feel the danger and avoid it', which is simply like a tiger for those who practice martial arts. What the world says about 'the autumn wind is not moving, and the cicadas feel first' is also such a meaning. After thinking about it for the teacher, the most likely thing is that a few months ago, Fei'er, you and the teacher tried your strength to return to Qilin Village, and the seeds you got when you entered the realm of 'Wuji Divine Fist' at the entrance of the village are now being cultivated by the ancestors. Fei'er, you really cultivated in your previous life, and you have a deep fortune! β
"Teacher, you often teach that we Taoists pay attention to the harmony of yin and yang, and there will be gains and losses. What are the taboos of this 'true way'? Yue Fei asked.
Zhou Tong was very satisfied when he heard Yue Fei ask this question, and said: "Humility benefits, full of losses." It's very good that you can think like that. The key to this 'sincerity' lies in the word 'sincerity'. You must be open-minded and honest with others; Let all good be done, and no evil should be done; Do not grovel to the knees, do not flatter; Be thorough in your heart and clear in your thoughts. Do not cover it with dust. If you can do the above points, your sincerity will become stronger and stronger. Otherwise, the way will disappear and leave you.
Taking advantage of Zhou Tong's happiness, Yue Fei asked: "Teacher, when you recover in a few days, let's try to compete between our master and apprentice, Master Zhiming lost too quickly just now, and my body hasn't warmed up yet." β
Zhou Tong asked rhetorically, "Fei'er, what do you think of Master Zhiming's current physical strength?" β
Yue Fei replied: "Master Zhiming is old, his qi and blood are beginning to deteriorate, and his physical strength is gradually declining. β
"Well, you can see it accurately." Zhou Tong touched the beard on his chin, and then asked, "What do you think of being a teacher?" As a teacher, he is even older than Master Zhiming. β
Yue Fei replied: "The teacher's qi and blood are condensed, his breath is restrained, and he has perfected the realm. The disciple couldn't see it. β
Zhou Dong smiled and said: "To tell you the truth, the title of the first hand in the world as a teacher was obtained forty years ago, in the battle in front of the Jinluan Palace, he defeated the nine masters of the Liao State and the Western Xia in a row. After that, in Jingshi, it was all up to your two senior brothers, Lu Junyi and Lin Chong, to support the scene and block countless challenges. However, Lu Junyi and Lin Chong left the capital to go to Liangshan one after another, and after venting their anger for your senior brother Lin as a teacher, they also left the Beijing division. The last battle for the division was the battle in Liquan Mountain twenty years ago, killing the national teacher of the Liao State and saving Master Zhiming and Master Chunjiao. The heart of fighting for the teacher is dull, unless it is a last resort, and the teacher can only bully those who have not yet formed the Dan now......"
Zhou Tong and Yue Fei's master and apprentice chatted farther and farther away. Press here not table.
Seven days later, the three elders said goodbye to everyone and returned to Huashan. And Yue Fei and the others were in full swing and stepped up preparations.
Before I knew it, another three months had passed.
One day, the county suddenly issued two official documents: one was that this year's martial arts examination was advanced, and all school-age martial arts children would go to the county within seven days to obtain qualifications. The shortlisted candidates will go to Beijing within three months to take the martial arts championship. The second official document is to announce that the previous county magistrate has retired and returned to his hometown, and the current county magistrate has taken up his new post, so that the township chiefs can go to meet Yunyun.
The elders of the village gathered at Ah Gong House to discuss with Zhou Tong and the two sect leaders. After some discussion, it was decided to send Yue Fei, Niu Gao, Tang Huai, Zhang Xian, and Wang Gui to take the exam on behalf of Qilin Village.
Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, Niu Gao's mother and son have been naturalized in Qilin Village.
Five days later, Zhou Tong, Li Zhong and Zhang Yi, the two leaders of the sect, led the five descendants to the county school to take the martial arts test.
Although the martial arts examination is not as good as the liberal arts examination, it is also a big day. All the way, until the Huangxian school field, I saw a sea of people. All kinds of market sales, tea tents, wine shops and all kinds of delicacies on both sides of the street, so lively!
The three members of Qilin Village had already arrived at the county seat, ordered a large wine tent in the competition, and placed all kinds of food, waiting for the arrival of their sons.
Zhou Tong and his entourage entered the arena and saw the martial arts boys from other towns and villages, and they arrived one after another. It is really "poor and rich in martial arts", many rich children, dressed in colorful clothes, flowers and branches, all kinds of high-headed horses, with bright and gorgeous saddle armor, are indeed rich and compelling.
And Zhou Dong's group, except for Zhou Tong, who is dressed in cloth, the rest of them are wearing a black gold iron helmet, wearing a pair of black gold iron chain armor, lined with a black soap robe, tightly bound with a armor, riding a high-headed white horse, holding long and short weapons. The people are black and white, black and white, in this piece of rich flowers, showing a solemn atmosphere, which is daunting.
Ladies and gentlemen: These horse armors were newly purchased by Luan Tingyu.
Yue Fei and the others entered the large wine canopy that had been prepared by the three members to rest for a while, waiting for the competition.
Half an hour later, I saw the new county lord Li Chun, shouting back and forth, followed a large group of master servants, entered the school grounds, got off the bridge, sat down in the martial arts hall, and immediately sent refreshments to eat.
The county lord Li looked around and saw that those who went to the exam were so lively, and the county lord was secretly happy: "I have selected a few good protΓ©gΓ©s today, and when I enter Beijing and win the middle school, even I have some brilliance." β
Less engraved, the room scribe sent the township registers. The county lord saw it, and came up one by one, comparing arrows one by one, and then looking at the bow and horse.
