Xiao Dongshan hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up, only to see that his head was covered with blood, and he was still saying in his mouth: "It's over!" Finished! Xiao Dongshan said: "Brother Cheng, the road is not passable, let's find another way." Brother Cheng said: "Torture is also terrible!" It's better that Ben doesn't have a chance! Xiao Dongshan said: "Big brother, what we have is time to think about how to get out of trouble, why rush for a while, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, big brother take care of yourself, and then we will slowly find a way." It took a long time to comfort Brother Cheng and calm down.

Brother Cheng calmed down, leaned against the stone wall and closed his eyes for a while, and suddenly said: "I have a reluctant request, it's just Brother Gao Pan!" Xiao Dongshan said: "It's okay for Brother Cheng to be blunt. Brother Cheng stood up and said, "If the brothers don't dislike it, how about you and I become brothers with different surnames?" Xiao Dongshan said happily: "That's what I mean." The younger brother was born on the eleventh day of the twelfth month of the year of Yihai. Brother Cheng said: "I was born on February 18 in the year of Wuchen, and I am seven years older than you. So the two knelt down side by side, only to hear Brother Cheng say: "The emperor is above, and the earth is the proof, I know a lot." Xiao Dongshan was stunned for a moment and said, "Your name is Chen Zhiduo?" Chen Zhiduo put his elbow on Xiao Dongshan's elbow and said, "Yes, my name, it's your turn." Xiao Dongshan said: "I'm Xiao Dongshan." The two said in unison: "Today they are brothers with different surnames, and in the future, they will work together to share blessings and misfortunes, the emperor and the queen of heaven, and the earth will always learn from this heart, betray righteousness and be ungrateful, and heaven and man will kill together!" ”

After taking the oath, the two bowed to the eight directions, and kowtowed to each other four times.

After the ceremony, Xiao Dongshan couldn't wait to say: "Big brother, it's so hard for you to hide from me, it turns out that you are an elder of the beggar gang?" Which Chen is the eldest brother? Chen Zhiduo said: "Do you know that I am an elder of the beggar gang? It's Er Dong Chen. Xiao Dongshan said: "I always thought it was He Mucheng, the eldest brother is famous, disrespectful and disrespectful." Chen Zhiduo said: "You have heard my name!" Not many of the disciples in the gang know me, only eight bags of disciples have more contact with me, and I am not very famous in the rivers and lakes. Xiao Dongshan said: "I was injured by a reckless man at that time, and I became friends with the disciples of your gang, and I was fortunate to participate in a beggar gang conference and heard your prestige. So he told in detail what he had seen in the beggar gang.

Chen Zhi was so shocked that he slapped the wall with his hand, sad inexplicably, and asked repeatedly: "Why did my righteous brother die, which one was he with the night before?" Brother, brother, you are a young hero, why did you go with my father-in-law? Xiao Dongshan had to say the situation that day again, when it came to the purple spots in the Tianzhu Cave, Chen Zhiduo was shocked, and said: "How can I say that Brother Lin was actually victimized?" Xiao Dongshan said: "I'm not very sure, but there are many doubts." "I also told all kinds of things related to the purple spots of the Tianzhu Cave before. Chen Zhiduo said: "When my father-in-law died, I was there, I rubbed my father-in-law's back a few times, and his old man's Tianzhu acupoint really had purple spots, I talked to his old man, so I remember." It seems that there is a real conspiracy in this matter! Terrible! It's horrible! As he spoke, he suddenly looked like he remembered something, Xiao Dongshan knew that the matter was very important, grabbed Chen Zhiduo's shoulder and shook it, and said, "Big brother, what did you think of?" ”

Chen Zhiduo said: "The imperial court! Court! With such great ability, only people in the imperial court can do it! yes, that makes sense! Xiao Dongshan said: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

Chen Zhiduo motioned for him to sit down, the two sat down, Chen Zhiduo said: "My father-in-law was originally a humble and kind person, but for some reason, his temperament suddenly became tyrannical and became aggressive, the beggar gang is the largest gang in the world, with millions of disciples in the gang, and the momentum is extreme. Attacking and killing is the favorite of the emperor today, and I think the deaths of the two gang leaders are mostly done by the imperial court...... After my brother-in-law took over as the leader of the gang, he was fine a few years ago, but then his ambition became bigger and bigger, and he claimed to have great ambitions, but he really had bad intentions, and he pushed hundreds of thousands of disciples of my beggar gang into the sea of swords and fire! He wantonly accepted the disciples of the clean clothes, and in less than a few years, the number of the disciples of the clean clothes almost caught up with the number of dirty clothes called flowers, isn't this a mess! I tried to persuade him many times, but he just didn't listen, but quarreled with me, and I was disheartened, so I came to seclusion. Unexpectedly, less than a year after I left, he died...... He's bringing about his own destruction......"

Xiao Dongshan said: "In this way, it was the imperial court that sent a Taoist to secretly harm the Lin family's father and son...... It seems to make sense......"

Chen Zhiduo said: "Brother Xian, I'm upset, I originally had something important to tell you today, and I'll talk about it tomorrow, let me be quiet for a while." Xiao Dongshan said goodbye to Chen Zhiduo and went back to his stone room.

After a night, when the scar-faced woman in Tianming brought the rice, Xiao Dongshan waited for her to go away, climbed over the stone wall with the rice bowl, Chen Zhiduo took it, and turned around to take the water bowl, Chen Zhiduo took it again, and entered the stone room, Xiao Dongshan saw that Chen Zhiduo swept away the decadence of the day before yesterday, but his eyes were a little red, and he thought he had cried. After the two finished eating, Chen Zhiduo said: "Brother, the residual poison in my body can't be solved, the internal force is difficult to recover, and I can't kill it for a while, your internal strength is acceptable, and there is progress every day, but unfortunately in addition to the internal strength, I haven't learned any smart martial arts, I intend to teach you a set of exquisite boxing techniques, and then wait for the opportunity to move after you finish learning, what do you think?" Xiao Dongshan was overjoyed and said: "Brother, I love to learn martial arts the most!" Come, come, teach me! Chen Zhiduo nodded and said: "In the past, when my father-in-law passed on my martial arts, I made a poisonous oath, and my martial arts can only be passed on to the righteous brothers and the disciples with more than eight bags in the gang. I married my brother yesterday, not all for the sake of passing on martial arts, but because I really wanted to live and die with my virtuous brother, but I was a little hasty. Xiao Dongshan hurriedly said: "Big brother, you and I are like brothers, don't say anything when you see each other." ”

Chen Zhiduo nodded and said, "Okay!" Now I will teach you a set of lotus boxing, this set of boxing is different from the previous teaching of Liuqi boxing, is the real first-class martial arts, Liuqi boxing, KitKat can be summed up, but Lotus boxing is all-encompassing like an iceberg, KitKat is only the tip of the iceberg. Learn to pass Liuqi boxing, but quite learned a style of lotus boxing, learn lotus boxing, since the world of all kinds of boxing, to achieve 'boxing intentions, move no fixed momentum', only to calculate the teacher, after the teacher still how much comprehension, it depends on your own. I have been learning Lotus Boxing for fifteen years, barely a teacher, the qualifications of the virtuous brother are better than mine, when you practice, the internal strength will rise for a few more years, and you can subdue the scar-faced woman and the old poisonous woman, and it will not be too late to kill them at that time! ”

Xiao Dongshan said: "A few years? ”

Chen Zhiduo nodded and said: "But when learning boxing, don't think about getting out of trouble from time to time, and practice is the most taboo to float your mind, you must understand these basic truths, I won't say more." Let's start with the first pose, the starting pose. There are sixteen kinds of starting styles, according to the number of opponents, formations, strength of martial arts, weapons, and terrain to use different starting hands, first teach you sixteen kinds, you only use rote memorization, and then look back to see when to use which kind of starting hand, so that you can understand. When you leave the school, you will understand that there is really only one of these sixteen. ”

Xiao Dongshan nodded. So Chen Zhiduo demonstrated and explained the sixteen kinds of starting hands one by one, Xiao Dongshan memorized them all by rote, and practiced repeatedly, but he didn't realize that the weather was late.

Since then, Xiao Dongshan and Chen Zhiduo learned lotus boxing, after the starting style is getting more and more difficult, each style has sixteen changes, to learn sixteen styles, Chen Zhiduo said: "These sixteen styles combined, is the first move of lotus boxing, called 'step by step lotus', the essence of the lotus is fast, lotus boxing only sixteen moves, each move has sixteen styles, each style has sixteen changes, a total of more than 4,000 changes, this is called 'ever-changing', when facing the enemy, don't think, play out, is for the 'fist intentions, Tricks are not fixed', after I teach again, and then go back to practice, you will have a new understanding, now start to learn the second trick, called 'everywhere blooming', the essence of blooming everywhere lies in the wide, come and come, look at the first type of the first change......"
