Chapter Twenty-Six: The Eight Techniques
"Haha......" The half-grown old man smiled, "Yes! Why not!
"I'm Ciao, what do you mean by that?" said Shao Liang.
"It's not interesting, if you are smart enough to master the eight skills in a few days, then it is very possible!" The half-old man's serious expression did not look like he was lying.
"Shall we start now?" said Shao Qi impatiently.
For Shao Liang, the so-called both come and go, but also to be full of yourself all the time, never let go of any opportunity to enrich yourself, maybe one day in the future, what you learn today, you can save your life.
The half-old man nodded with a smile and said, "The old man thinks you can learn more slowly, so that the old man can eat more of your grilled fish!"
"Okay, okay, don't grind, let's get started!Don't worry, as long as you don't play tricky, the grilled fish is big!"
"Good. The half-old man stroked his beard again, and then said loudly: "Within the so-called eight gates, the door of rest, the door of life, and the door of opening are auspicious, the door of injury, death, and shock are the doors of disaster, and the door of Du and Jingmen are the gates of mediocrity, and the small ecstasy formation is necessary to take away the door of retirement and life, as well as open the door, and what is left behind, for the fish, it is a disaster......"
The moonlight was bright, the river was murmuring, and there was a gust of mountain wind blowing into the night in the distance, which stirred the gravel and fallen leaves on the ground, and disturbed the regularity of the dense forest in the mountains, but it did not touch the two people sitting on the bank of the river at this time, one of these two people was telling seriously, the other was listening carefully, and from time to time they would stretch out their hands to play with the stones on the ground, everything seemed so harmonious, these two people were the young man and the half-old man.
As time passed quietly, the sky in the distance was white, and the night was rushed away, and the fire beside the young man and the half-old man was no longer open at this time, and only a few scattered flames were struggling.
The half-grown old man looked up at the sky, then stretched, yawned, and said reluctantly: "Oh, okay, okay, the old man is tired and wants to go back to rest, I really didn't expect this night to be so fast." ”
Shao Liang is also a little tired, but thinking of what he learned in this night, Shao Liang does not feel tired, but feels that it is worth it, from the beginning of ignorance, to the first glimpse of the situation, Shao Liang gladly accepts the knowledge that he has never been exposed to before, and it is also a kind of self-preservation ability.
"Okay, little old man, if you talk about it, then...... Shall we come back here tonight?" asked Shao Liang as he stood up.
The half-old man snorted and replied: "Okay, who let the old man commit the crime of greed, otherwise, how can you stinky boy make arrangements!"
"Haha, little old man, forget it! If you are greedy, you are greedy, and you are so elegant, there is a use for wool? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about you eating eight fish in one go! Besides, it's just you and me here, you don't have to come with me, I don't understand, and I don't want to listen!" Shao Qi laughed loudly.
"You...... Hey!" The half-old man wanted to speak and stopped: "That's it, the old man has taken the first step." ”
"Hey, little old man, wait a minute! I haven't asked you what your name is?" said the young man.
"Hmph, you've already called the old man all night, why do you need to listen to the name anymore?" the half-old man seemed a little displeased.
Shao Yu was slightly embarrassed and said, "Uh, that...... Do you mean you've been calling you little old man?"
"Whatever you want!" said the half-grown old man, who had already turned and started to leave.
Shao Liang looked at the back of the half-grown old man leaving, and did not forget to beckon: "Hey, little old man, my name is Shao Baitou, we are both heads, but ah, you are an old man, I am a white head, haha, this is fate......!
The half-grown old man had disappeared from Shao Qi's sight, and Shao Qi smiled to himself, and then turned away contentedly, heading for the straight ladder that could climb up the cliff.
After Shao Liang returned to the room arranged by Liu Hanxian, the sky was already bright at this time, and a ray of morning light passed through the window and sprinkled on Shao Yan's body, Shao Liang stretched his waist, yawned, his eyelids began to fight, and he simply fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.
It wasn't until a rhythmic knock on the door came that Shao Yu woke him up from his sleep.
"Young official, young official, have you rested?" It seemed to be the voice of Hehuan coming from outside the door.
"It's coming......" Shao Liang stretched his waist again, then stood up and opened the door, sure enough, it was Hehuan, and at this time Hehuan was holding a steaming meal in his hands.
"Young official, Master Liu, please come and meet you after breakfast. He Huan supported his plump figure and handed the meal to Shao Yu.
Shao Yu didn't rush to take the meal, but asked out loud, "What time is it?"
Hehuan nodded, "It's not long after dawn." ”
It seems that he didn't sleep long, Shao Yu thought so, and then pushed the shelf full of food, and said loudly: "I'll go with you to see him, and I won't eat breakfast." ”
"Ah, aren't the young officials hungry?"
"Not hungry. Shao Yu refused, remembering the grilled fish last night, and now his stomach was still stuffed.
Led by Hehuan, soon, Shao Liang came to the house where he had been yesterday, just walked into the room, there was a burst of pungent rouge smell came, Shao Liang couldn't help but sneeze a few times, and looked at it, Liu Hanxian had not even gotten up to change clothes, but was leisurely half lying on the big bed, hugging two women with good posture left and right.
"Old Liu, it's too much!" Shao Qi complained.
"Haha!" Liu Hanxian didn't move, but laughed loudly: "Shao Baitou, how was your rest last night? If you are willing to do what I want, you can also hug left and right now." ”
"Cut, I'm not like you. Shao Qi scratched his nose.
"Okay, good, you Shao Baitou is a man of good character, okay......?
"Okay, what the hell are you looking for me, didn't you say yesterday that you were going to teach me how to fly?" interrupted Shao Qi.
"Of course, don't be impatient. Liu Hanxian spoke, sat up, and then said: "But, let's say it in advance, you are not a disciple of my Orchid Sect, and I won't teach you too much, just let you run for your life, how about it?"
"Heh, what kind of hell do you think I'm rarely joining your Orchid Sect?, and I don't want to be your disciple!" Shao Yu retorted.
"That's the best. Liu Hanxian then put on the brocade clothes, walked out of bed, nodded at Shao Qi and said, "Follow me." ”
Shao Liang followed Liu Hanxian around in the huge room, and came to a partitioned room at the back of the room, Shao Liang thought that Liu Hanxian was going to teach himself some skills here, but after Liu Hanxian raised his hand and turned a tea cup on a bookcase, the bookcase actually moved on its own, and it turned out to be a dark room.
Before entering the dark room, Liu Hanxian instructed the woman in the front hall: "No one is allowed to come in without my order, do you hear?"
"Got it, Master Liu!" came the voices of several women in the front hall.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Hanxian pulled Shao Yu into the dark room. Entering the dark room, Shao Liang saw that there was nothing peculiar about this dark room, in a boxy room, there was an oil lamp standing in each corner, although the vision was a little dim, but it was not clear to see.
Shao Liang thought that the dark room would be full of dazzling treasures, but it was empty and nothing, only in the center of the dark room, a cushion that looked strange, said to be a cushion, but he didn't think so, because this cushion was not made of fabric, but more like a dark piece of jade carving.
Liu Hanxian led Shao Liang to the front of the cushion, stretched out his finger and pointed to the cushion, and motioned, "Sit down." ”
"What are you doing sitting on it?" the young man wondered.
"Don't talk nonsense, let you sit on it, and you will sit on it. Liu Hanxian urged.
Shao Liang had no choice but to find and sit on the cushion carved from jade, first felt a burst of coolness, and then there was a feeling of being wrapped, as if there was a mass of things that could not be seen and touched around him, but what it was, Shao Liang couldn't say.
Seeing that Shao Liang had already sat down, Liu Hanxian said slowly: "This is a piece of jade that I bought at a high price from the barbarian land, and people can get twice the result with half the effort when they sit on it and cultivate." ”
"Oh, yes, you said it earlier! I thought you were going to do something!"
"What can I do?" Liu Hanxian snorted coldly: "I'll repeat it to you again, I took you into cultivation and taught you to fly, just so that you can protect yourself when you help me in the future, and you are not my disciple of the Orchid Sect, and I am not your master." ”
"Okay, okay, don't put gold on your face, who wants to be your disciple? Shao Qi said impatiently.
Liu Hanxian ignored Shao Yan's complaints, and continued to speak: "Also, although you have entered the cultivation of the truth with me, but after you go to the Nine Extremes Gate to apprentice, you must not easily show your skills, otherwise, your life is not what I said." ”
"I'm the second Ao, Lao Liu, are you contradicting yourself by saying this? and you don't let me make a move, and you say that you want me to protect myself, you ......"
"I've made it very clear, you can protect yourself as a last resort, but you have to help me get the map of the Nine Pole Gate!" Liu Hanxian's tone suddenly became much more serious.
"Hey, Lao Liu, you ......" Shao Liang said: "Didn't we say it in Nanyao Prefecture before? I tried my best, but if I really can't get the map, I can't help it!"
Liu Hanxian sneered and shook his head, "No, I have changed my mind now, you have to help me get the map of the Nine Pole Gate." ”
"I'm the second Ao, you ......"
"Shao Baitou, you don't have a choice, if you have to give in and want to go righteously, I can fulfill you now. As Liu Hanxian spoke, he suddenly raised his hand, only to see a dazzling green light flashing by, making a terrifying sound of breaking the sky.
Shao Qi was stunned, his head spun quickly, the so-called heroes didn't suffer the losses in front of him, so he hurriedly compromised: "Okay, Lao Liu, count you ruthless, I promise you............
