Chapter 388: Unexpected
In the thirty-three years of martial arts calendar, Wang Yifan was seriously injured on the top of Huashan Mountain, and paid a painful price for his impatience. After that, he resided on Peach Blossom Island and spent three years of dedicated cultivation as a self-reflection.
In the past three years, he has not only cultivated martial arts such as "Jiuyang True Scripture", "Blood Sword Heart Method", "Toad Gong", "Liancheng Sword Technique", "Blue Sea Tide Song" to the ultimate realm, but even "Heaven Swallowing Demon Gong" has inadvertently risen to level six. He wanted to accumulate a lot of money, but unexpectedly, during his three-year retreat, the monk Linghui passed away unexpectedly. And the "Jiuyang True Scripture" that he was thinking about in his heart also inexplicably fell into the rivers and lakes.
Yes, Shaolin, after accumulating many masters, finally burst like a loaded balloon! And the accidental death of Linghui Zen Master unsurprisingly became the fuse of the Shaolin split...
Thirty-five years of martial arts calendar.
The head of the Shaolin faction, who is also the host of the Shaolin Temple and the leader of the martial arts alliance, Linghui Zen Master suddenly died. In this regard, Shaolin's explanation is that the practice goes crazy, but according to various intelligence on the rivers and lakes, Linghui is very likely to die from his killing, and he died under Shaolin martial arts.
The following year, Shaolin fell into a complete chaos of assigning sides. At its worst, there was even a situation where one temple had five presiding. But soon this situation was suppressed.
Speaking of which, the two people who broke this mess are the rivals in "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
Lay disciple Zuo Lengzen!
Lay disciple Yue Buqun!
No one thought that the original dignified head of the Huashan Sword Sect and the head of the Songshan Sword Sect would actually join another faction. And he was willing to start as a lay disciple, completely ignoring the dignity of the word "head". But the two made exactly the same choice, and they succeeded in achieving their goals.
Hiding in the Shaolin Temple for many years, Zuo Lengchan and Yue Buqun have been busy with the 'Shaolin stunt' almost day and night. From the slightly inferior "Shaolin Seventy-two Stunts" to the deepest and most valuable "Jiuyang True Scripture", "Yijin Sutra", and "Washing the Pulp Sutra".
Although the three books of "Jiuyang True Scripture", "Yijin Sutra" and "Washing the Marrow Sutra" are difficult for ordinary people to see, but with their efforts for Shaolin for many years, the two of them have got many opportunities to observe the "Shaolin 72 stunts". And in order to better and faster integrate into Shaolin and obtain rights, the two of them practiced Shaolin almost as hard as they could.
Why? Because in the Shaolin Temple, the number of "seventy-two stunts" mastered by the monk determines his status.
Borrowing from "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", the Shaolin abbot said in the empty words: "I have seventy-two stunts in the Shaolin School, and no monk or lay disciple has been able to practice more than twelve in thousands of years." ”
It is true that this sentence only appears in the original work, but the meaning it expresses is exactly what Zuo Lengchan and Yue Buqun are pursuing.
Of course, there were also a lot of resistance before the two of them, such as the four monks of the "empty" generation, who were all leaders in the young area of the Shaolin faction.
Let's first talk about the Kongjian who was unscathed by Xie Xun's thirteen palms in "Yitian", although he has only mastered two stunts, but the [King Kong is not bad] is known as "one of the five great magic skills of Shaolin", plus the thirty-six styles of [Dragon Claw Hand], the internal and external skills can be called first-class.
Let's talk about the Shaolin abbot in "Yitian", mastering [Mighty King Kong Finger], [Dragon Claw Hand], and [Jiuyang Divine Skill]. Not to mention the first two, just talking about [Jiuyang Divine Skill] can be worth ten stunts.
Empty wisdom, if you talk about the number of stunts mastered, this person is called "Shaolin third", and no one dares to call it second. Eleven!
(First: Jade-faced Buddha.) Fifty-six of the seventy-two stunts were mastered. )
Emptiness, this one is the least numerous, with only one hand of thirty-six [Dragon Claw Hands]. But he is better at "specialization", and he has practiced the stunt of [Dragon Claw Hand] to the pinnacle of harmony.
In addition to these four monks, there are also "Fuhu Arhat" Xuan Ci in "Tianlong", "Qiao Feng's Teacher" Xuan Ku, "Xuanzi First" Xuan Cheng, Chengguan in "Deer Ding", "Divine Condor" created Shaolin Jiuyang Gong colorless, "Smiling Proud" in Fangzheng, as well as the senior generation of Jueyuan, "Sandu" and the sweeping monk without seniority. Of course, Jueyuan, "Sandu", and sweeping monks are exceptions. is the one who can compete with Zuo and Yue, and it is nothing more than the five people in front of them.
The five Xuanci are Shaolin disciples, and they have a great advantage in calling for a large number of Shaolin monks. As lay disciples, Zuo and Yue seem to have no advantage, but thanks to the continuous growth of Shaolin in recent years, there are more and more lay disciples in the temple, and the number of people who can actually call on them is only a lot more than the orthodox Shaolin disciples.
In this way, Shaolin, which was once united as a family, slowly split into two factions: "Shaolin disciples" and "lay disciples". And the sound similar to "return the martial arts stunt" came and went. It is the appearance of relying on the dragons of Shaolin Temple without a leader, sitting on the ground and sprinkling.
But don't say it, the approach of Zuo and Yue really made the "Shaolin disciples" get together. In their opinion, these people themselves are not Shaolin disciples, they say that they are "Shaolin lay disciples", but in fact they are Shaolin captives. On the other hand, Xuan Ci, who is now temporarily serving as the "Shaolin Abbot", doesn't seem to care much about the status of martial arts, in other words: they feel that the "lay disciples" are not important at all, and it is better to let them go than to raise these white-eyed wolves.
After a year of separation, finally... The image of the "head of martial arts" that Monk Linghui had worked so hard to knead collapsed.
This made Wang Yifan, who had just come out of the customs, at a loss, "Ha, I retreated and practiced penance without sleep or food, and in the end I was suddenly told that the initiator was dead, and I could live in seclusion with peace of mind, what is this??? ”
Listen to the whereabouts of "Jiuyang True Scripture" again, and you have to... A total of nine people, including Xuan Ci, Jueyuan, Zuo Lengchan, Yue Buqun, etc., were torn apart by 1/9 of one person, and there were even nearly eight copycat versions circulating on the rivers and lakes.
Shaking his head and sighing, Wang Yifan lost motivation...
In the next three months, Wang Yifan visited six places such as Shaolin, Songshan, and Huashan one by one, and made up a rough idea of the "Jiuyang True Scripture" with both soft and hard. In another month, Wang Yifan supplemented and perfected the "Jiuyang True Scripture" and locked it into the system space of his mind.
Since then, Wang Yifan's envisioned 'Turbulent Waves' second career has failed. But fortunately, this time Wang Yifan did not choose to commit suicide without brains. turned into a loose man riding a donkey, traveling through the rivers and lakes.
Before he left Peach Blossom Island, he said to himself: "Maybe the task will be completed while walking!" ”
Coincidentally, many years later, when Wang Yifan successfully "escaped" back to reality, he also said the same... 210[.]
