Text Chapter 1 The Recipe for Longevity
After Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty ascended the throne, he conquered Goryeo three times, and ordered people to dig canals, and built a large number of civil works to build a palace, which made the world unappeased, thieves and thieves were everywhere, the people were not able to make a living, and everyone was in danger. At that time, the folk inherited the relics of the Qin and Han dynasties, the folk customs were fierce, and the style of martial arts was prevalent, so the martial arts hall and the dojo were very prosperous.
Yangzhou since the development of the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty, has been the world's first class of rich land, not to mention anything else, the martial arts hall alone is dozens, if the scale of prestige, then the first recommendation by Yangzhou's first master [push the mountain] Shi Long personally founded the Shilong martial arts field.
However, in recent years, Shi Long has rarely come to the venue to manage affairs, and all the business is taken care of by the disciples, but because his name is hung on the martial arts field, people from near and far are still on the way. Shi Long's internal and external skills have reached the realm of first-rate masters, otherwise he would not be able to break into a huge reputation in the rivers and lakes and maintain his fame for decades.
This person has a good nature, celibate and does not marry, since a few months ago to find the Taoist supreme treasure book "longevity formula", he lives alone in a small village on the outskirts of the city, staying at home, all day long immersed in the study and playing of this Taoist secret treasure book "longevity formula", even the necessities of life are regularly sent by the apprentice.
According to the oral tradition of the past dynasties, this book comes from the ancient Yellow Emperor's teacher Guangchengzi, written in oracle bone inscription, profound and difficult to understand, the sages have read this book, although there is no lack of wisdom through the world, but no one can understand and decipher the whole book. There are 7,400 glyphs in the book, but only about 3,000 glyphs have been deciphered. The book is also densely packed with annotations from those who have read the book, but they are often more confusing than the original text. Fortunately, there are seven humanoid figures in the book, none of which are oriented towards each other, and are guided by various symbols such as red dots, arrows, etc., as if they are describing a certain method of cultivation, but those who do not understand its meaning can not practice.
The stone dragon has been in contrast to this book for several months, but he still has nothing, just like a treasure in front of him, but there is no key to open the door. When I meditated on this day, an alarm suddenly appeared in my heart, and I couldn't concentrate on the treasure book, and I was groaning, and a soft sound came from outside the court door. Shi Long hurriedly took the treasure book into his arms, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he sighed and said, "Your guests are coming, please come in and drink hot tea!" ”
It was only from the other party that he came to the door and deliberately stepped out of the sound, and he had a sense of it, and he could know that the martial arts of the comer were above him, at least he had reached the realm of a super-first-class master.
The door opened, and a woman stood outside the door. The woman was dressed in a snow-white samurai suit, and she was beautiful. Shi Long only felt that his eyes lit up, and his heart was filled with a sense of amazement.
The woman who suddenly appeared outside the door was about eighteen or nineteen years old, she was beautiful, her black and shiny hair was tied with only a hairband, and it hung down naturally like a waterfall, and her white and delicate skin was as smooth as jade. Her figure is slender and well-proportioned, slender and well-fitted, and her body is indescribably beautiful, with a unique charm and temperament. Just one stop at it, it seems to be the natural center of heaven and earth, and it attracts you deeply.
But what impresses her most is that under her beautiful and curved eyebrows, there are a pair of slender phoenix eyes, clear and spirited, when you look at her, you only feel that the gaze is as sharp as a sword, so that you have to retreat and submit. Her demeanor is quiet and sophisticated, demure and dignified; But her focused and determined eyes make people feel that she is not only beautiful, but also has a vigorous heroic spirit, showing a decisive and resolute attitude that is far better than that of a man, and full of confidence.
Although the woman is beautiful, she has faintly fallen into the city, but Shi Longnian is over forty years, long past the age of the young Mu Ai, and has always refined Taoist exercises, and is very unconcerned with women, although at the beginning of the woman's glory photographed, after a moment to recover.
He cultivated very deeply, his face remained unchanged, he still sat in the chair, and said lightly: "I look at the girl's essence and introverted, and her breath is long, so that she can't see the depth below, obviously she is already a first-class person in the world, she has such unfathomable cultivation at such a young age, I don't know which great grandmaster the girl is?" ”
The woman's cherry lips spit lightly, and a voice that was better than Xianlai's voice sounded: "Since my debut, I have been determined to challenge famous masters from all over the world and sharpen my martial arts." I first arrived in Yangzhou three days ago, and I submitted a book to your dojo to fight with my predecessors. I don't want your dojo to shirk it, so I have to come to the door in person today and ask my seniors for advice. ”
Shi Long is known as the number one master in Yangzhou, and there are naturally people who come to challenge and intend to become famous in a fight, these people naturally cannot be faced by Shi Long one by one, and most of them are sent by his disciples. I don't want to have a real master today, Shi Long's mind is spinning, thinking of some rumors on the rivers and lakes in recent years, his heart moved, remembering that a person is in line with the identity of the woman in front of him, and said tentatively: "It turns out that the girl is one of the four surnamed door valves today, Dugu Valve, the most outstanding master of Dugu Feng, in recent years, the girl has become famous, and she has lost the Huangshan relics Ouyang Xiyi, the master of Yuwen Valve, Yu Wenhua and, the first master of Li Valve, Li Shentong and many other celebrities, and many other famous people, single sword challenge Jingnian Zen Buddhism retreated, prestigious, known as the first master of the younger generation, Although I am in a remote place, I have heard of it. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its name. ”
Dugu Feng was leisurely, pacing into the hall like a walk, first looking around, and finally landing on a pair of words hanging on the hall, and said with a light smile: "Da is to help the world, poor is self-reliant, long Wen Shi predecessors have always been seekers, but I didn't expect to have the ambition to help the world." The pleasant voice was tinged with a hint of teasing, as if he was mocking him for being clearly devoted to the Tao and claiming to be weak, but he had the heart to help the world, which was against the Taoist intention of being quiet and inactive.
Shi Long has been trying to lock Dugu Feng's qi when Dugu Feng entered the house, but all the detection touches Dugu Feng's body, just like a mud cow entering the sea. Shi Long couldn't help but be horrified in his heart, and secretly screamed. He is still the first person to contact the Dugu Valve, the Dugu Valve is the most famous for the owner of the Dugu Peak, but the most powerful master of the Dugu family is You Chuhong, the mother of Dugu Peak, You Chuhong is nearly 100 years old, and he is the master of the generation of the first person in the rivers and lakes to scatter Ning Daoqi, at the age of sixty, he abandoned the sword and used the staff to create his own "cloak staff method", which is famous far and wide, and is the world's first-rate grandmaster-level figure. But in recent years, Dugu Valve's most well-known master is Dugu Feng, it is said that when she was sixteen years old, she has already connected the family heirloom Biluo Hongchen heart method to the peak of the Dacheng realm, after her debut, she challenged all the masters with a set of Biluo Hongchen swordsmanship, and successively defeated Ouyang Xiyi, the first master of Yuwen Valve under the lord of Yuwen Valve, Li Shentong and others, not long ago, it was rumored that her single sword broke into Jingnian Zen Buddhism, challenged the empty master, the result of this battle was not known, but she was able to retreat afterwards, which shows how powerful she is. It is rumored that her swordsmanship has surpassed the swordsmanship of the Dugu family, opening up the world and becoming a family of her own, and there is a tendency to surpass You Chuhong and become the most powerful master of Dugu Valve. Although I have heard of it for a long time, I have only seen her for two years, and she has such a cultivation, which has to be shocking.
Shi Long's mind was racing, his face remained unchanged, and he said: "Miss Guan's cultivation is no longer inferior to Naizu, and she is already a first-class grandmaster in the world. Although I am conceited, I also know that I am not worthy of the girl's challenge, and I don't know what the girl is doing? But it was a test of qi, so that Shi Long tried more and more frightened, Dugu Feng's qi was quiet, deep like the ocean, although Shi Long couldn't find out what level her cultivation had reached, but he knew that it must be above himself. Shi Long was self-aware, and knew that with his reputation for cultivation, it was not worth Dugu Feng's painstaking door-to-door challenge. With Dugufeng's status and status, he must have another purpose to challenge in person.
Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, one of the characteristics is that the scholar clan developed from generations of noble families, also known as Gaomen or Gate Valve, which is clearly distinguished from the Shu clan of ordinary people. The so-called [no cold door in the upper grade, no scholar in the lower grade]. Economically and politically, the nobles enjoyed great privileges. When Yang Jian, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, ruled the world and won the imperial examination, the situation of the gate valve monopolizing everything was slightly broken. But the gate valve is still unwielding, and the four surnames of the gate valve that are famous in the rivers and lakes refer to the four powerful families surnamed Yuwen, Li, Dugu and Song, who have huge influence in politics, economy and martial arts. Shilong was born in the Shu clan, although as a first-class master, he is famous in Yangzhou and has a little power, but compared with such a high-ranking valve as Dugu Valve, it is like fluorescent to the sun and the moon. Thinking about what he has, what is there worthy of this Dugu valve's fame of a young grandmaster-level master, thinking about it, there is only one possibility. Dugu Feng came for his newly obtained Taoist supreme treasure book longevity formula, although he didn't know how the news of his longevity recipe was leaked, but he only saw Dugu Feng personally come to the door, obviously he had determined that the longevity formula was in his hands.
Dugu Feng was surprised, as if he was surprised by Shi Long's directness, and then said calmly: "Senior Shi is really fast-talking, but the younger generation is hypocritical." The younger generation came here because they heard that the seniors had obtained the Taoist supreme secret book "The Secret of Longevity", and they came to borrow it from the seniors. ”
The legend of "The Secret of Eternal Life" contains the supreme secret of Taoist cultivation of the Heavenly Dao, which can enable martial artists to cultivate to the supreme realm of shattering the void. Although there has been no shortage of wise people who have read this book for thousands of years, but no one can understand it, but every time the "Recipe for Eternal Life" is born, it still attracts countless warriors, because the broken void is the greatest pursuit of martial artists, and a book containing the mystery of the broken void is an irresistible temptation for martial artists who are interested in entering the supreme martial arts. Just because he knew the truth of his sin, after Shi Long got the longevity formula, he always carried it close to him, never showing it to others, but he didn't expect it to be leaked out.
Shi Long is a famous figure in the rivers and lakes, although he knows that he may not be Dugu Feng's opponent, but how can he give the truth of the longevity formula because of the other party's words, he has a good life, and now this Taoist supreme treasure book is in hand, it is difficult to give up, so he resolutely said: "Shi is not a lie, Dugu girl has determined that the longevity formula is here in Shi, and Shi has no reason to deny it." Since you want the recipe for longevity. Let Shi teach the world-shattering swordsmanship of the Dugu girl. ”
