Chapter 8: The Strange Monkey
Chapter 8: The Strange Monkey
"How can the young master make my family's swordsmanship, I have traveled from south to north, and I have seen so many people use swords, but I have never seen others use my family's swordsmanship. You're the first. When the young master used the sword just now, I felt that I was playing more smoothly and chic than my father, and I felt that I was one and the same. I sincerely worship the young master as a teacher, and I implore the young master to guide Xiaoqing and let me carry forward the family's swordsmanship. Xiao Qing said sincerely.
"What's your name?" Xiao Yuan felt compassion for this young man in his heart, but also praised, after a thousand miles of trek to Yunan, he was helpless, and he must bear the suffering that others could not bear.
"My name is Yan Xiaoqing, a native of Qiyan Town in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. ”
"Your family doesn't pass on swordsmanship to call the streamer reappearance, right? ”
"Hmm. By this time, I am already in the sixth generation. ”
"I can write you the mantra. Forget about apprenticeship. ”
"Hah, young master, do you really know the formula?" Xiao Qing's face changed instantly, and he was extremely surprised. When each person uses a sword move, the effect will be skewed, and it will be difficult for others to absorb it. But the mantra is different, with the mantra, the core of the sword move will be mastered, and the practice will be more thorough.
"But you have to keep it a secret. You can't tell the second person without my permission, except for your descendants. ”
After Xiao Yuan said this, Xiao Qing was speechless. He hadn't cried in years. Now he couldn't hold back his tears and fell.
"Today's young master is no longer the young master of the past. I'm so much more surprised than you are. Gu Juan interjected. Hearing that Xiaoqing wanted to worship the young master as a teacher, Gu Juan was also excited at this time, because there was a second person who recognized the young master.
"You go out, I'll ask Xiaojuan to bring it to you when I'm done." ”
"Can I worship you as a teacher?" Xiao Qing was excited, he was hesitating just now, but now he is determined to worship the young master as a teacher.
"No, I can't. Don't let me say this a second time. Xiao Yuan responded seriously. Today's promise to pass on the sword mantra to Xiaoqing is already an exception. He can't escalate things further and get into trouble.
Xiao Qing saw that Gu Xiaoyuan was so determined, so he didn't say anything more.
"I'll show you once when I'm free, whether you can learn it or not is ultimately up to you. Xiao Yuan changed his euphemistic tone and said that in his eyes, Xiao Qing was a person of his grandson's generation, and there was no need to be too harsh.
"Young master, I will do my best to learn, and I won't let you down. ”
"Okay, you go out. I'm going to rest. ”
After speaking, Xiao Yuan ignored him anymore, and took out the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" under the pillow again to read.
Gu Juan helped Xiaoqing up and whispered: "After the young master was injured, the whole person has changed. ”
"You said that the young master has changed into a different person?" Xiao Qing followed Gu Juan and slowly walked out of the door.
"Don't you think? The young master is not only not stupid, but also very much like a master in the world. ”
"Xiao Juan!" Xiao Yuan couldn't help but shout.
Seeing the young master scolding, Gu Juan knew that she had leaked her mouth. At this time, the two of them hurriedly hurried away and closed the door.
After three days of calm and calm, Gu Xiaoyuan did not step out of the room again, and his life was as quiet as before. The Gu family's collection of books is not much, mainly two major pieces of healing and martial arts, and in the past month, most of the books have been finished by Gu Xiaoyuan. As time goes by, the amount of time required for Yuan Qi cultivation becomes less and less. As for the fighting spirit, the five elements of the maze, the formation, etc., the low-level kung fu has been reviewed. According to the fullness of the vitality, he is still in the first order of the vitality, but due to the simultaneous inhalation and refining of the qi, Xiao Yuan's dantian is no longer empty, and the pure vitality has gathered a lot. The threshold of the second order of the primordial has actually arrived.
On this day, Gu Xiaoyuan had nothing to do and planned to go out for a walk, the purpose was to find some useful books. Before he could get out of the door, he heard a fierce shout. Gu Xiaoyuan actually had no status in the Gu family, his residence was shabby, and he was located next to the most noisy cultivation ground, and there was no decent furniture in the house.
Gu Xiaoyuan heard the sound and went out with Gu Juan to watch the excitement. When they arrived at the cultivation ground, they saw all the disciples surrounding a big tree in the corner. And on the big tree, there is a strange big monkey, the color of this monkey's hair is not our usual gray, but the whole body is snow-white, incredibly white, like snow on an extremely cold day. The monkey's eyes are much larger than those of ordinary monkeys, and they are blazing and majestic. The monkey's paws are strangely long, and the three red eyebrows on the top of the eyes are particularly striking, so that it looks so fierce that no one dares to approach and harass it.
At this time, some people began to test the white-haired monkey with long sticks, trying to drive away the hoodoo. Just as the stick was close to the monkey's body, no one could see the specific situation, and the monkey took the stick away, and when everyone saw clearly, the stick was flying out of the wall. This strange monkey has amazing strength and extremely quick reactions.
Everyone felt that this monster would definitely hurt people if it stayed in the Gu family, so they discussed finding a way to get rid of it. The disciples of the Gu family came up with a way, and several people picked up stones together and threw them at the monkey. Stones were thrown at the monkeys. Just when they thought they were going to succeed in injuring the monkey, the stone somehow stuck to the monkey's hand. Immediately after that, whoever throws the stone will be stoned at whomever it struck.
A few people who had just acted were hit by rocks and croaked. If it weren't for the thick skin, it would be necessary to rub the medicine and bandage it now. Faced with a counterattack from the monkey stones, no one dared to act recklessly.
"This monster is not auspicious. We're going to blow it away. Steward Yu stood at the back, he said.
"Senior brother, attack with fire. "Someone proposed.
The Gu family has nearly 100 disciples, in addition to the Gu family's father and son who have cultivated yang fire, there are also two people who have cultivated yang fire. They are the senior brother Lu He and the third senior brother He Zhu. The third senior brother heard that someone suggested attacking with fire, so he stood up. He tied up his horse and walked to refresh his spirits, and it seemed that he was going to use yang fire against the white-haired monkey.
He Zhu got lucky, his face and neck instantly turned red, and after a snort, a long, straight red fire burst out through his palm, came out, and sprayed towards the monkey. The power of this yang fire was really extraordinary, and the leaves of the trees were scorched everywhere it went, and there was also a strong air current, which blew the branches and leaves to shake more than once.
It was the first time Gu Xiaoyuan saw the power of Yang Huo, but he didn't react too much, and was even a little disappointed. Compared to True Qi, the gap is a bit big.
I thought that if the monkey didn't flee immediately, it would be burned into a roast pig. Unexpectedly, the monkey didn't even dodge, and as soon as it stretched out its hand, it dispersed the oncoming yang fire. This is yang fire, extracted from the essence of fire, but it is so pediatric for the white-haired monkey.
At this time, the senior brother Lu He couldn't help it, he took a few steps forward and side by side with He Zhu, the two looked at each other and signaled to join forces. Soon, the two of them raised the yang fire of the dantian, and the two yang flames converged into a huge beam of fire, illuminating everyone's eyes. This time the two fires merged, and the power was terrifying, and the branches of the trees were directly burned off everywhere they went.
Seeing that the sun fire was about to burn to the monkey, everyone was happy, waiting to see a good show, they believed that the monkey would definitely die. The result was still beyond everyone's expectations, the white-haired monkey didn't blink at all, the position he was standing in was motionless, the yang fire came to him, he stretched out a hand at random to block it, and the fire was blocked out and dispersed.
"It's not afraid of the sun. A disciple shouted.
The senior brother and the third senior brother continued to exert their strength and burned the fire more vigorously. The monkey can still cope with it with one hand, and the other hand is actually taken out at this time to play haha, giving people the feeling of being arrogant. After a stalemate for a while, the two eldest disciples of the Gu family still couldn't hurt the white-haired monkey in the slightest. During the whole process, the monkey kept leaning against the tree, his eyes were lazy, which means you can be a little more ruthless.
The yang fire was not as long-lasting as the true qi, and the yang fire attack power of the two senior brothers gradually weakened, and the fire light changed from bright red to bright yellow. The two of them really tried their best, but they had to retract and put the dantian away.
"Xiaoqing, go get some bananas and pears. Gu Xiaoyuan patted Yan Xiaoqing, who was watching the drama normally. He is still unfamiliar with the Gu family, he has never even been to the hall, and he doesn't know where the kitchen is.
Xiao Qing didn't question it, and as soon as he heard Xiao Yuan's order, he immediately ran away. At this time the monkey laughed in the tree, yes, he was laughing. That means laughing at them and not being able to do anything about themselves. The disciples of the Gu family gathered in groups to discuss countermeasures.
After a few breaths, Xiaoqing took a basket of fruits and ran back. Xiao Yuan took it and put the banana in the open space. Before Xiao Yuan and Xiao Qing could dodge, a white shadow flashed, and the banana was gone. Coming to his senses, the white-haired monkey returned to the tree and began to peel the first banana peel. The speed of this monkey stunned everyone, and those present lost even the consciousness of chasing it.
"This is the Fire Spirit Monkey, he should be in Lingxiao Mountain in Wusun, how can he appear in Yunan. It's weird. Xiao Yuan muttered in a low voice, probably as far as Gu Juan and Xiao Qing beside him could hear. Xiao Yuan continued: "He's just hungry, and he doesn't have any malice. Xiao Yuan raised his voice slightly to remind everyone. He brought this banana, and he didn't want to say a few words.
"How do you know it's hungry?" Among the Gu family's disciples, the rough-looking Tu Xin questioned Xiao Yuan.
"I believe the young master's words. Xiao Qing was the first to stand up and speak for Xiao Yuan.
"You're the most stupid, you practice a few simple sword moves all day long, and you insist that the family doesn't spread it, and it's not even as good as the three-legged cat kung fu. Your young master is a big fool, and if you follow him in the future, we will call you the second fool. "Tu Xin is the second brother's entourage, and they all speak with the same taste, which is enough to damage.
"If you dare to slander the young master, I will fight with you. After speaking, Xiao Qing was about to stab his sword at Tu Xin. As a result, the eldest brother Lu He kicked Xiaoqing's knee and tripped him to the ground. The senior brother just didn't seem to want them to make trouble, but he tripped Xiaoqing like this, and instead became a big bully. At this time, most of the disciples coaxed and laughed.
I helped Xiaoqing up and said to him: "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge." You have to learn to endure. ”
