Volume 3: Jianghu Hand in Hand Chapter 43 Seven Sword Tricks
The brother and sister walked through the rows of houses and soon reached the edge of Bagua City.
Han Ye looked at the ethereal night clouds under his feet and asked Han Yu beside him, "Where is Qinglu Hall?" Not under the sea of clouds, right? ”
Han Yu pointed the green sleeve straight ahead and said, "Brother, look at it." ”
Han Ye looked in the direction of Han Yu's finger, only to find that there was a hanging peak standing in the misty distance under the moonlight.
The back mountain Siguo peak is different from other hanging peaks, in addition to the Qing Law Hall and the bell tower of three zhang high that occupies a large area, there is no building, more is some elegant flowers and plants, ancient trees with roots, the thick clouds that linger around it add a bit of mystery to it, although it is not as subtle as the first peak, but it contains deep aura, although it is not as vast as the main peak, but it contains all things, it is indeed a good place for Qing Xiu.
Han Ye looked at the blurry Siguo Peak, couldn't help but feel happy, he wanted to take a closer look, Han Yu on the side saw his thoughts, urged the Biyun sword on his waist to unsheath and cross the air, jumped on the sword first, and the fair-skinned little hand took Han Ye and said, "Brother, Xiaoyu will give you a ride." ”
Han Ye relieved himself, got on the sword, and the brother and sister went to the Qinglu Hall in the back mountain together.
The exterior of the hall is not magnificent, but particularly rustic, the steps have not been cleaned for many years, they are covered with moss, the exterior walls have not been cleaned for a long time, and they are also covered with vines.
Entering the outer wall, the huge Qinglu Hall was impressively in front of him, and there were some houses around, several of which still had lights looming, Han Yu told Han Ye that those houses were for people who had been stationed in the back mountains for a long time.
Then the two of them entered the Qinglu Hall, facing the door is the shrine of the Lingtai Shrine dedicated to the ancestors of the elders of the Shushan Dynasty, the shrine is two zhang high, five zhang wide, the top is densely hung with tablets, there is a copper tripod for burning incense in front of the shrine, and under the Lingtai is a row of futons, for those who have thought about the Qing cultivators to kneel and sit.
The candles on both sides flickered and dimmed, and in the entire Qinglu Hall, there was only one white-robed twilight man kneeling in front of the spiritual seat, holding three sticks of incense, and worshipped: "The ancestors of Shushan, the disciples of the unscrupulous are worshipping here. ”
Han Yu was overjoyed to see that Uncle Shouzheng was still in the hall, and was about to step forward to say hello, but was stopped by Han Ye with one hand, Han Ye shook her head, she also obediently retreated, and the two continued to guard the Zheng, Shouzheng stood up, put the incense in the ding, glanced at a tablet on the left, and said respectfully and solemnly: "Senior Brother Changkong, although I have not met you, I have already heard your chivalrous name in the rivers and lakes, and I am fortunate to be with you, and I hope to be able to dismantle more than 100 tricks with you, but I don't want to just look at your god position, and sigh in vain." ”
Shouzheng sighed and remembered for a while, suddenly tilted his head slightly, and said with a sloppy gaze: "Han Ye, why did you bring Ling Mei here?" ”
Han Ye only expected that Shou was concentrating on worshipping, but he didn't know that he was originally the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, so how could he not know that there were two more people in the room? So he was a little surprised, and then smiled indifferently, and said: "The predecessor is really powerful, and he only came in for a while, and you will know it if you don't look back." ”
Han Yu happily raised his palm and saluted, "Uncle Shouzheng, Xiaoyu has also come to see you." ”
Shouzheng turned around, looked at these two brothers and sisters with extraordinary bearing, and there was a little love in his eyes, and he only said: "Old man, what is there to see? ”
Han Ye didn't beat around the bush, knelt down and bowed sincerely to Shouzheng: "The younger generation has to be upright and the seniors help me, I am deeply grateful, and I come to thank you!" ”
Shouzheng thought for a while and said, "Get up, but for you to get rid of some scum in the rivers and lakes, why kneel and thank you?" ”
"The seniors drew their swords to help, of course, they should be thanked." Han Ye lowered his head slightly and said, "The help I am talking about, this is only the first thing. ”
Shouzheng knew what he meant when he heard what he said, and couldn't help but think: "Good boy, I'll listen to you." So, he pretended to be puzzled and said: "If it is not for you to relieve the siege, then what is still worthy of your great gift?" ”
Han Ye said unhurriedly and respectfully: "If it weren't for the fact that my brother and sister would recognize each other, how could the seniors suffer from the punishment of this half a year?" This alone is enough to make Zai Xi grateful. ”
Guarding his face and not changing, he said: "I'm just in retreat and cultivation in the Qinglu Hall, how can I punish me?" ”
Han Ye saw that Shouzheng still wanted to cover it up, so he had to get straight to the point and said: "Because you are the man in black, as an elder, you must be responsible for making such a big incident in front of the mountain gate, so they sent you here as the head of the Changfeng Dao, saying that it was to recuperate, but in fact, I thought about it, I don't know if my speculation is right?" Predecessor. ”
After Han Ye finished speaking, she carefully observed Shouzheng's facial expression, while Han Yu looked at Shouzheng with a nervous look, in fact, she probably guessed that Shouzheng was the man in black, but she didn't dare to ask directly, now that her brother proposed, how could she not care?
Shouzheng was silent for a moment, suddenly laughed out loud, stepped forward to help Han Ye, and said with satisfaction: "Since ancient times, heroes have been young people, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me." ”
Han Ye smiled indifferently: "But this is only the second thing to thank." ”
"Oh?" Shouzheng's eyes lit up, and he asked, "So, do you have a third thing to thank me?" ”
Han Ye didn't answer for the time being, and kowtowed to Shouzheng three times, and said, "Thank you Master for preaching and teaching!" ”
Shouzheng was first shocked, and then thought, "He has always remembered the matter of accepting disciples." Thinking about it like this, Shouzheng pretended to be careless and said: "Your master asks for the king of Yama is an apprentice of Changkong, and he is also a person from Shushan. You must know that the situation forced me to do that day, and my senior brother and I said that in order to protect you, as for whether to enter Shushan or not, it is up to you. ”
Han Ye didn't raise his head to guard Shouzheng, but the words he said surprised Shouzheng, he said: "It's true that Zhang Kuo is my master, but I have long made up my mind to resolve the grievances of Wulin for him, you are the former leader of the Wulin Alliance, and you have always been worried about Wulin, in fact, in your heart, you also want to accept me as an apprentice...... You think to yourself, in the past eight years, my martial arts have been mediocre, but I have also done a lot of good things, if my martial arts are higher, what should I do? You want to teach me to become a weapon, but I don't know if I want to, today I will kowtow to you three times to relieve your worries, Gongsun is the great hero of the world, why can't I worship this master? ”
Han Ye said that the center of the road, Shouzheng suddenly felt that this person's mind was far more delicate than imagined, fortunately, the mind is used in the right way, if it is used on the evil road, it is very dangerous, but he does want to accept this apprentice, since the words are all about this, he raised his hand and said: "You get up, you and I will be masters and apprentices in the future, and the Taoist name will be used by the common name." ”
Han Ye thanked him again and again, and said, "Yes!" Disciples, follow Master's teachings! ”
"I accept you, firstly, I want to teach you superior kung fu, let you be chivalrous and righteous, and resolve grievances, and secondly, I also hope that the word 'zheng' in my name can ensure that you do not go astray." Shouzheng put his hand behind him, and said awe-inspiringly: "Apprentice, I admire you very much, you are both affectionate and intelligent, worthy of the name of a young man, but if you learn that you are doing evil outside in the name of my former alliance leader, the friendship between you and me will be decided!" ”
Han Ye kowtowed and said: "No, at this time and that time, I am under the banner of asking for the king of Hades, of course, to resolve the grievances between the master and the martial arts, and the master has already retired, I will never make the master troubled for my own selfishness!" ”
"That's for the best." Shouzheng's face softened a little as he spoke, and he said to Han Yu on the side: "Little nephew, you go back first, Brother Ling and I still have something to talk about." ”
"Uh-huh! There is Uncle Lao, thank you, Uncle Lao! I'll leave this brother to your care! Han Yu saw that Shouzheng accepted Han Ye as an apprentice, and his heart blossomed, where did he dare to hinder them from practicing and talking, so he retreated first, leaving only two men in the Qinglu Hall.
Seeing that his sister had left, Han Ye got up and asked, "What advice does Master have?" ”
Shouzheng was not in a hurry to speak, put his hands behind his back, slowly walked out of the hall, and said to Han Ye with his eyes ahead: "Come with me." ”
Han Ye vaguely understood something in his heart, and only followed him out of the Qinglu Hall, and only stopped when he arrived at an empty pile of stones, it was the night when the moon was hanging high, the stars were brilliant, and the quiet silver glow was sprinkled on the rocks, and there were only bursts of cicadas chirping around, and the night breeze came slowly, with a hint of coldness, and he was sitting on the rocks looking at the brightly lit gossip city, wearing a white robe like a flowing cloud, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if he had something on his mind.
Han Ye stood in front of him, looking at the old man under the starry sky, a few wisps of respect rose inexplicably, and said, "Senior, can you talk about it now?" ”
Shouzheng said: "There are countless spiritual positions of Shushan seniors in the Qinglu Hall, and it is really not a good place to preach and teach. As he spoke, he turned his head and asked Han Ye straightforwardly, "Did you bring the wine?" ”
Han Ye was slightly stunned, since he smiled indifferently, he took off the wine bag and threw it to Shouzheng, and said, "Master, take it." ”
Shouzheng took it casually and drank it without any scruples, perhaps he didn't expect this drunken immortal drink to be so delicious, his deep eyes sometimes emitted brilliance, until he drank it until he was refreshed and floating, and then praised loudly: "Good wine!" Shouzheng became more and more happy, looked at Han Ye, who was quietly watching him drink, handed the wine bag back, and said majestically: "Apprentice, tell me, what is the purpose of learning martial arts?" ”
Han Ye clenched his fists and said, "Protect the people around you, eliminate evil and punish adultery." ”
Shouzheng raised his head and smiled, his eyes reflected the blood and pride of the year, but he was a little more sad, he said: "I am old, and now the martial arts are declining, and the villain is in charge, and I need a person like you who is loyal and brave and chivalrous to change the current situation!" My grandson Zheng does not accept apprentices in his life, and the only apprentice should be a peerless swordsman! ”
After that, Shouzheng looked Han Ye up and down, and said, "I'm afraid Zhang Kuo has already seen that you are a good material, but it's a pity that his own martial arts are all learned in a mess, how good can the apprentices he teach be?" I've found this out when I played against you, and with your current skills, it's more than enough to deal with ordinary masters, but it's full of loopholes when you meet opponents of equal strength. ”
Han Ye recalled Chen Qinghe, Lianfeng and others who were at the foot of Shu Mountain that day, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and hugged his fists and said, "Please teach Master." ”
Shouzheng said solemnly: "I have been the leader of the martial arts alliance for more than ten years, and I came to Shushan without distractions, so I made a summary of what I have learned all my life, and blended it into a set of swordsmanship, although I dare not call it the strongest in the Six Realms, it is still enough to say that it is invincible all over the world, you already have a foundation in swordsmanship, and it should not be difficult to learn." ”
Hearing this, Han Ye hurriedly asked, "What swordsmanship?" ”
Shouzheng spat out five words unhurriedly: "True, martial, seven, sword, and trick." Seeing that Han Ye was interested, he continued: "Many years ago, the masters of the martial arts alliance of the past dynasties passed on a set of martial arts, called 'seven tips of sword qi', at that time there was a son-in-law of the martial arts alliance master who was the head of Shushan, and passed this kung fu to Shushan, Shushan has always been based on the study of Taoism, supplemented by the cultivation of martial arts, this set of seven sword qi has not been improved, I can't help but itch after reading it, dismantle these seven kinds of sword qi one by one, and find that there are many profound martial arts principles, so more than 1,000 kinds of martial arts in the rivers and lakes are integrated into it, I created this set of swordsmanship, saying that it is a swordsmanship, and it can be made even without a sword. ”
"True Martial Seven Sword Technique?" Han Ye stood on the empty rocky ground, looking at his own vague shadow in the moonlight, and said in his heart: "Is this the kung fu that Master used when he fought against the heroes at the foot of Shu Mountain?" Thinking about it, I began to recall the number of ways to do it.
Shouzheng saw Han Ye contemplating and thinking, so he asked him, "Do you want to learn this set of swordsmanship?" ”
Han Ye was startled, relieved from his contemplation, and nodded heavily at Shouzheng.
"Hmm." Shouzheng began to explain carefully, and said: "Listen, this Zhenwu Seven Sword Recipe is divided into seven tips, namely 'Fight', 'Niu', 'Female', 'Void', 'Danger', 'Room', 'Wall', Fighting Trick is Cangsong Swordsmanship, also known as 'Insight into the Heavenly Machine Fighting Word Formula'; Niu Jue is Thunder Swordsmanship, also known as 'Wanfu Improper Niu Character Formula', Female Trick is Yue Nu Swordsmanship, also known as 'Smart and Light Female Character Formula'; Void Recipe is Yin and Yang Swordsmanship, also known as 'Unfathomable and Difficult to Understand Void Character Formula'; Dangerous Trick is Lone Star Swordsmanship, also called' Seeking victory in defeat is the word trick of danger'; the room trick is the Japanese style swordsmanship, also called the 'rigidity and softness of the room word formula'; the wall trick is the eight wilderness swordsmanship, also known as the 'impeccable wall word formula'. This set of swordsmanship starts with the real sword, there is a sword with a sword, no sword with qi, whenever you are completely familiar with one of the sword tricks, combined with Xuanyuan true qi, the body will turn into a qi sword corresponding to the sword trick, its appearance must have been seen by you. ”
Han Ye asked, "Master, does the move you made when you attacked Master Yuanyun also belong to this sword technique?" ”
"No, I didn't use that trick in this swordsmanship." Shouzheng said solemnly: "The 'Dragon Slaying Technique' is the strongest of the seven sword qi, and you can break the tiger and slay the dragon with one hand, because it is already close to a divine skill, so it has not been added to the True Martial Seven Sword Technique, but I will also teach you." ”
Han Ye wrote down every word Shouzheng said, frowned, and said, "Martial arts really never ends. ”
"That's natural, my set of swordsmanship is used to deal with the masters of the world, even if you don't win, the other party can't win you within more than a hundred moves." Shou Zhengdao: "Although there are only seven swords in this set of swordsmanship, then each set of swords are exquisite, ever-changing, Cangsong swordsmanship is realized by the cultivator Yunyangzi, Thunder swordsmanship is changed from the famous Five Thunder League, the Yue Nu swordsmanship comes from the hands of the ancient Yue Shepherd Girl, the Yin and Yang swordsmanship is changed to the Bagua Gate stunt Qiankun double swordsmanship, the lone star swordsmanship is taken from the ancient strange picture on the Dunhuang painting wall, and the wind swordsmanship is transformed by the blue waves and Qingfeng palms of the Bishui Palace, and the eight desolation swordsmanship is transformed from the eight desolation marksmanship. ”
Han Ye listened to Shouzheng talk about the origin of each set of sword splitting techniques, and couldn't help but admire it even more, and said: "Master has a wide range of knowledge, and the past and the present are shining. ”
Shouzheng said with a smile: "I do know some, but some of the lost sword moves are also read in the literature compiled by the master, in terms of knowledge, I am far inferior to the master, that is, your ancestor." As he spoke, he pressed his right hand on the rock, jumped up, and landed on the ground one foot behind Han Ye, and said, "Without further ado, I will make a sword technique to show you, and you can see its mystery clearly." ”
Han Ye solemnly bowed, looked at Shouzheng seriously, and then put on a posture, and pulled out the red dragon sword with his right hand, the sword under the moon was like a stream reflecting the red maple, swaying with bursts of red mangs, making the demons and demons in all directions chill! Shouzheng holds a sword in one hand, and throws his robe horizontally in the other hand, the fiery red true qi suddenly appears, and the appearance of seven air swords gradually appears around the body, which are printed with the words "fighting", "bull", "female", "virtual", "dangerous", "room", "wall", the sword is overflowing, so not mighty!
Shouzheng placed the sword horizontally in front of him, closed his eyes, and said calmly: "'Fight', keep moving quietly, and gain insight into the heavens." The enemy advances and we attack, the enemy retreats and we defend, both offensive and defensive, and wait for work at ease. When encountering an enemy on your par, you can use this sword technique to finally force the enemy to show their flaws and fight back. Han Ye listened to Shouzheng talk about the sword, and saw that he closed his eyes and stared, seemingly abandoning vision, but in fact, it enhanced the perception of his ears and true qi, and at this glance, it seemed that no matter how he attacked him, he would be able to fight back quickly and delicately.
After a while, Shouzheng withdrew the sword momentum, suddenly opened his eyes, held the red dragon sword with both hands and quickly swung it, moving forward, not looking behind him, and said: "'Ox', brave crown six ways, ten thousand people are not appropriate!" Quickly frustrate their will, violently break their hearts, invincible, and the cowardly will collapse! When encountering an opponent who is inferior in strength or strength, but with this sword, you will be able to win a great victory. Han Ye saw that Shouzheng was attacking rapidly, and remembered Lin Yin's analysis when he taught him swordsmanship before, and couldn't help but nod secretly.
After slashing for a while, Shouzheng suddenly held the sword in his right hand and made a trick with his left hand, and danced a gentle sword technique lightly, saying: "'Female', make up for clumsiness with skill, and be smart and light." The aura is overflowing, skillfully breaking the encirclement, connecting the past and the future, and the seven swords are connected. This swordsmanship seems to be ordinary, but it is the heart of the other six tricks, when the enemy is pressing and cannot be resolved, but this swordsmanship will be able to easily retreat from the enemy and come and go freely. ”
Then Shouzheng left his hand behind him, pointed his right hand at the ground, and drew a Tai Chi pattern in the air with his sword, saying: "The 'virtual' one, with the real to hit the virtual, unpredictable and difficult to understand." It is also true and false, it is difficult to distinguish between obscurity, avoid the real and attack the false, and defeat the enemy. Flexible use of this swordsmanship, sometimes bright and dark between several people, with ease, if combined with the shadow of the flashing star, the phantom moon two tricks, it is more effective. ”
Then, Shouzheng clenched his fist in his left hand, held a sword in his right hand, and moved forward like a wind, his figure was like a ghost, his whereabouts were like a god, and he took out three swords in a row, a sword was handed to the front of him, a sword was sent to the back, and a sword was backhanded side stab, and in a blink of an eye, it was surprisingly fast, he said: "'Dangerous', break through the danger, and win in defeat." Encountering on a narrow road, the soldiers are dangerous, unexpected, and caught off guard! The enemy is faster than me, the enemy is brave, I am braver, I encounter an opponent stronger than myself, but I make this sword, knowing that I can't stop it, I want to fight with the opponent, hurt me 10,000, and lose 8,000 myself! ”
Then Shouzheng relaxed his left hand, held the sword in his right hand, and used a soft swordsmanship, saying: "The 'room' is to overcome rigidity with softness, and combine rigidity and softness." The enemy is strong and I am weak, and I cannot be defeated, and the soft sword is trapped in it, waiting for a turnaround. Encounter a strong opponent, or the opponent's kung fu restrains you, but make this sword, when you can hold the opponent to find a good opportunity. ”
After that, Shouzheng held his left palm against the spine of the sword, grabbed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and blocked it horizontally in front of him, and the fiery red true qi was suddenly released, like a high wall, he said: "The 'wall' is invulnerable to controlling chaos with stability. The offensive is strong, when blocked by the sword, it is as stable as Mount Tai, and the enemy is in chaos. When encountering the opponent's rapid attack, but make this swordsmanship, mobilize the true qi of the whole body, consume the enemy's attack, and fail to break it for a long time, you will panic. ”
In the end, Shouzheng's left hand suddenly made a knife, and all the fiery red true qi was condensed into that hand, and he shouted: "Slay the dragon!" Then he waved forward, and when the sword passed, a majestic sword qi swept through, and a deep crack was suddenly cut on the ground by the sword qi!
Shouzheng turned around, put the sword back into its sheath, the afterwind and dust and smoke stirred up by the dragon slaying technique were still flying behind him, and he said to Han Ye with a lofty attitude: "Disciple, how is this set of swordsmanship?" ”
Han Ye was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only look at Shouzheng in a daze, and suddenly heard a rough voice in the air: "Senior Brother Shouzheng, what do you mean by secretly teaching Han Ye alone?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a flame pierced out of the clouds and fell to the ground with a thud, and Han Ye fixed his eyes to see that it was the red-robed Taoist Yuan Yun.
