Chapter 98: You Can Defeat Me Too
The sun was slanting in the middle of the day, and then it was falling westward, and the day gradually turned into a red sun, and the two figures stood still, like two stone statues, still staring quietly.
Silence seems to have become an eternity between heaven and earth.
Zhong Ling yawned and asked, "Then will they just keep waiting?" ”
They were forced to be very depressed by this unusual atmosphere in the audience, as if they could talk to Wang Yuyan more so that they could be more steady.
Wang Yuyan said: "When the masters compete, it may only be in an instant to decide the victory, but it may be a long time to wait for this opportunity." ”
Zhong Ling let out a long breath and said, "If it goes on like this, isn't it even more boring than a duel between ordinary martial artists?" Ah Zi is right. ”
Wang Yuyan sighed: "No matter what kind of duel, it is by no means an interesting thing. Look at them again. ”
Zhong Ling, Ah Zi and the others stared at Gu Chaoci and the old monk, and looked back and forth on their bodies carefully a few times, but they still shook their heads and asked, "What?" ”
Wang Yuyan didn't answer, because her eyes were already fixed on a small flying bird, and there was a look of sympathy in her beautiful eyes.
The flying bird didn't know where it flew out of nowhere, and slowly flew towards Gu Chaoci and the old monk.
Just a foot away from the center of the two, the bird seemed to hit an invisible high wall and was bounced out, but the bird flew less than an inch, and when it heard a "snort", it seemed to fall on a scorching iron plate, and in an instant it turned into a cloud of black smoke, dissipating between heaven and earth, and a smell of meat wafted around it.
Shaolin Zhuxuan recited Amitabha.
The girls stared blankly at the place where the bird dissipated, and after a long time, Ah Zi asked, "This power is from the hands of my brother-in-law, who is close to who is dead?" ”
Wang Yuyan shook her head and said, "It can't be said that it is your brother-in-law's strength, but two strands." ”
Ah Zi blinked and said, "It is the power of the old monk who was ejected, and it is the power of the brother-in-law who was scorched." ”
Wang Yuyan nodded lightly.
Zhong Ling smacked his tongue, and then came back to his senses and said, "If it weren't for seeing this little butterfly turn into powder, who would have known that they were so terrible around them!" ”
Wang Yuyan said: "They are all full of invisible forces that clash with each other within a radius of a few zhang. Now these two forces are in a state of equilibrium, and if one of them overwhelms the other, you will find something even more terrifying. ”
Zhong Ling was startled, covered his mouth and said, "At that time, will this entire high platform be completely destroyed?" ”
Wang Yuyan nodded and said, "Maybe." ”
He suddenly muttered: "But if this is the case, I am afraid that it is not only the high platform that will be destroyed." ”
A look of horror couldn't help but appear in Ah Zi's black eyes, and he said, "Will my brother-in-law lose to this old man?" There seemed to be a hint of concern in her voice.
Wang Yuyan was stunned for a long time, took a long breath, but couldn't speak.
Zhong Ling suddenly blinked his eyes and said, "But I think that the winner of this battle must be my brother-in-law." ”
Wang Yuyan raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh? ”
Zhong Ling said: "This master doesn't look like a hundred or eighty, and his physical strength and reflexes must not be as good as his brother-in-law." Masters compete, he doesn't react as fast as his brother-in-law, how can he defeat the enemy? Therefore, he will definitely lose this battle. ”
Wang Yuyan shook her head and said, "Although the master is old, this disadvantage will not appear in a short time. Any master, if the martial arts have been practiced to the pinnacle, the speed of the shot and the speed of reaction will not be too different, how can it become the key to victory. ”
Zhong Ling was surprised: "Then what is the key to victory?" ”
Wang Yuyan said very solemnly: "Let's see who is more stable." ”
She has been concerned about Gu Chaoci since the confrontation with the old monk, for fear that Gu Chaoci would be young and vigorous, and he would not taste defeat, so he attacked rashly, but was defeated, seeking glory and humiliation.
But in front of everyone's eyes, she couldn't help, so she could only use the mouths of Ah Zi and Zhong Ling to express her views as a bystander.
Although Gu Chaoci confronted the old monk, these words were still heard clearly, and he naturally knew his wife's intentions.
And the old monk and Shaolin Zhuxuan also understood, but they were all martial arts masters, and no one interrupted a woman to speak, but secretly admired Wang Yuyan's knowledge.
Zhong Ling, Ah Zi, and Mei Lan Zhuju are also transparent people, and they seem to know Wang Yuyan's intentions. "Got a lot of talent.
Wang Yuyan nodded and said, "Not bad!" Stability is the most difficult part of martial arts to practice, and anyone who can practice martial arts to a 'stable' character is enough to be regarded as a first-class master. ”
Zhong Ling, Ah Zi and Mei Lan Zhuju also knew this truth, and many people next to them noticed the abnormality and thought: "Good guy, this is naked cheating, you guys just forget it together!" ”
Seeing that many eyes were shooting at them, Ah Zisu pretended to be innocent and happy, and said: "Sister, brother-in-law and this old man are peerless masters, and their martial arts have already won the word 'stable'." ”
Wang Yuyan snorted: "That's nature." But there is still a difference between this, if you talk about physical strength and fast shots, the master is certainly not as good as Gu Lang, but if you talk about the stability of your shot, the master must still be above Gu Lang. His skill is less than Gu Lang's Jiazi, and naturally the battle is cheaper. ”
Ah Zi bit her lip and said, "So in your opinion, this battle, brother-in-law will lose?" ”
Wang Yuyan paused and said, "That's not necessarily. ”
"There are many factors that determine the outcome of the final victory against the enemy, and martial arts is of course the most important factor. But in addition, the wisdom of on-the-spot adaptability, the ability to observe everything, the courage to fear life and death, the will to win, the extraordinary endurance, and even luck can all be factors that affect victory or defeat. ”
Zhong Ling interjected: "Endurance and luck are also counted? ”
Wang Yuyan nodded and said, "Of course." ”
"The masters of martial arts are at the pinnacle and perfect, and the stalemate lies in who can calm down more, which is a stable word.
An expression that shouldn't appear, a superfluous action, or even a deviation in thinking can make the difference between victory and defeat, and if you can't hold your breath and make a mistake, your opponent will naturally seize the opportunity. ”
After a pause, he said, "As for luck, if something suddenly falls off your head while you are concentrating on the enemy, what will you do?" ”
Zhong Ling stuck out his tongue and said, "Then of course I'll be startled." ”
Wang Yuyan smiled slightly and said: "Even if you are a calm person, even if you are not surprised, you will definitely be distracted, right?" ”
Zhong Ling nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
Her eyes lit up and she said, "As long as he is distracted, the opponent will have a chance to kill him." ”
Wang Yuyan said: "Yes, so you say luck is very important?" ”
Zhong Ling sighed and said, "It's very important. Suddenly, he added: "In this way, it will not be easy to win a duel, because it is not easy for anyone who wants to overpower his opponent in these aspects at the same time." ”
Wang Yuyan sighed: "It is never easy to do anything to the extreme. What's more, if a martial arts master is against the enemy, if he is not careful, if he loses a move, he will take a lifetime of fame, or if he is killed, how can it be easy? ”
Zhong Ling said in a daze: "Could it be a duel between masters, is it better than who can wait?" ”
Ah Zi suddenly said: "Sister, do you see that the old monk has the intention of making a move?" ”
Wang Yuyan stared at the old monk and shook her head: "No." ”
Ah Zi's eyes lit up with excitement and said, "I understand." The reason why the old man hasn't made a move yet is because he can't see the depth of his brother-in-law's martial arts, and he is not sure. ”
Zhong Ling and Mei Lan Zhuju nodded at the same time and said, "Yes, yes." ”
Wang Yuyan said: "That's not all right......"
She suddenly stopped talking, because around Gu Chaoci and the old monk, 'quiet' seemed to have become eternal, but at this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew in front of the Shaolin Temple, which was in response to the sentence: There is nothing immutable in the world.
With a gentle rustling sound, the dead leaves on the ground were also rolled up, and even the heavens and the earth seemed to be unable to bear the death-like silence and breathed a sigh of relief.
The dead leaves on the ground were blown by the wind of this wax moon, and fell like snowflakes between Gu Chaoci and the old monk, and most of them turned into yellow powder in an instant.
The eyes widened with disbelief in their eyes. One of the leaves happened to fall between the old monk and Gu Chaoci, which was neither far nor too close to them.
Instead of being shattered, it hung in the air as if it was full of magic power, and it also hung between the eyes of Gu Chaoci and the old monk, which naturally covered the sight of the two.
But at this moment, the two still figures suddenly moved.
It can really be said that it is as quiet as the condensation of the river and the sea, and the movement is like a thunderbolt,
At this moment, Wang Yuyan's breathing almost stopped.
I saw the old monk clasping his palms together and bowing to Gu Chaoci: "There is an arrogance!" ”
On the surface, it seems to be a salute to Gu Chaoci, but in fact, it contains decades of skill of the old monk, and it is a very powerful killer.
This palm gesture alone is extremely ordinary, but in the hands of the old monk, it carries a power that no one can ignore, and his palm power is like an undercurrent.
"Click" sounded, and the bluestone slab on the high platform exploded suddenly, turning into a rain of thousands of stones, as big as a canopy, as small as a fist, and rose to the sky.
For a while, gravel, dust, and residual leaves gathered into a barrier, pushing towards Gu Chaoci.
The power of this palm can be felt even by masters with deep internal strength such as Wang Yuyan and Duan Yu, who are a hundred steps away. The heroes were shocked in unison.
The nearest Shaolin Zhuxuan couldn't help but shudder, the momentum of this palm was incomparable, and he felt that the mountain giant tree was also pushed down, not to mention the flesh and blood people?
This palm shot out, as if only death could calm this thunderous blow.
Almost at the same moment when the old monk made a move, Gu Chaocilang smiled and said, "Master, you're welcome!" Holding his hands in a vain, he looked like an answer, and turned out the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon" in the combination of rigidity and softness, and pressed his hands to dissolve most of the old monk's palm power with soft strength.
This move does not have the thrilling momentum of the old monk's shot, just like the early morning sun quietly shining on the earth, without making a single movement.
But all the bluestones, dust chips, and wood chips were pulled by Gu Chao's palm, and they gathered together, like a tornado hurricane, circling around him.
Under the sun, the whirlwind swept around, and everyone looked at the cyan vortex with frightened expressions.
When the old monk saw Gu Chaoci's hand, his eyes flashed, and he secretly admired it, and his figure had taken off into the air.
Although he was old, he was not a teenager, and he flew towards Gu Chaoci like an eagle, and the index finger of his right hand stabbed out in the air, like a spiritual snake.
This is exactly the invisible finger power pointed out by Shaolin's "one-finger Zen" stunt. Although the finger power is qualitatively intangible and invisible to the naked eye, his halberd finger is a sword, and his hand is like holding a long sword, and the finger power is like a sharp cone spike, penetrating Gu Chaoci's palm.
With a "bang", the bluestone turned into debris and fell around Gu Chaoci. The old monk's finger force continued to stab, and Gu Chaoci's soft strength suddenly changed, becoming the fierce palm power of the dragon descending palm, and he slashed hard.
This applause was like an axe splitting and chiseling, the sky was falling, the momentum was precise and fierce, and the sound fell like thunder.
The old monk was taken aback, and saw that he was using his palm to carry out the knife, for fear that his fingers would not be able to resist the enemy, so he hurriedly shrank his fingers and changed his palm, and the force penetrated the palm, and a palm was gently slapped out.
With a "bang", the two palms intersected, Gu Chaoci suddenly felt that the other party's palm was like a mountain, and there was an uproar under his feet, the stone slab of the high platform was broken, and his body fell involuntarily.
Since Gu Chaoci practiced the eighteen palms of the dragon, he has never fallen behind in the palm power, and he secretly admires it in his heart.
He was in mid-air, the wind sounded above his head, and the old monk also sank, and he struck a palm in the air, like thunder and lightning.
Gu Chaoci's feet fell short, this situation is quite dangerous, although he is conceited on weekdays, he also knows that the old monk's powerful methods are more than that. In this case, he naturally didn't dare to make a hard connection, and his left hand turned into a claw of Jianshen, and with a click, he bypassed the old monk's palm and wrapped it around his wrist.
The old monk sighed, retracted his right palm, and struck out with his left palm.
Gu Chaoci wanted to raise his right palm to disassemble, but suddenly felt a shock in his back, and it turned out that he hit the beam and pillar supporting the high platform, and his body suddenly shrank in a hurry, and the force was on his back, breaking the pillar.
Stepping on the ground, he borrowed his strength, did not wait for the old monk to land, shouted, stroked his left palm, and pushed out his right hand, which was the "Kanglong has regrets" in the eighteen palms of the dragon.
As soon as the old monk saw Gu Chaoci's momentum, he was in mid-air, and he didn't dare to borrow it, his hand was supported on a wooden frame, and his body floated away, so he had to fight back.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chaoci's palm was sent out, and the high platform made a loud noise, and several wooden pillars broke in response, and the high platform was about to collapse.
The old monk said, "Layman, follow me!" Saying that, the green shadow flickered, like a swimming dragon, and the lightning passed through the stage, and suddenly the green shadow disappeared.
Gu Chaoci and the old monk did not distinguish the winner or loser, so he naturally didn't want to stop there, snorted, waved his palms continuously, and rose to the sky, crashing through the top of the platform before the entire platform collapsed.
Gu Chaoci saw that the old monk took a big stride, as if he was walking in a virtual manner, walked a few steps, and then entered the Shaolin Temple, and chased after him when his body shook. A voice came from afar: "The people of the thirty-six caves and the seventy-two islands are waiting here!" Those who dare to trespass will be killed! ”
Before he could finish speaking, suddenly the sound was like thunder, the high platform collapsed, the dust was scattered, and the people who were close to him could not help themselves, and retreated one after another.
Everyone saw that the old monk and Gu Chaoci entered the Shaolin Temple one after the other, and they wanted to follow up to see how the two won or lost, but they were stunned when they heard this.
Wang Yuyan was thoughtful, and understood his intentions in an instant, the corners of her mouth rose, revealing a knowing smile, and she thought: "Gu Lang is always so stable!" ”
She knew very well that Gu Chaoci was not sure of victory, and no one was watching the battle, but it was better.
……
Gu Chaoci saw that the old monk walked straight to the back mountain of Shaolin Temple, and chased after him, he was young after all, and the old monk didn't want to compete with him, so he quickly caught up.
The two figures were separated at once, their fists and feet were flying and flashing, and they were almost impossible to look at, and the fight was inseparable.
The pine and strange stones abound on the Shaolin Mountain, the old monk has been a monk in the Shaolin Temple for many years, a grass and a tree are in his heart, he follows the shape of the situation, the same as all things, the floating light, there is no trace.
Gu Chaoci fought with him, like being an enemy of a Shaomu Mountain. And the old monk is like a ghost, he can come when he wants, go when he wants, everywhere in all directions, making him all soldiers, although he has not been defeated for a while, so draining, but also revealing the image of defeat.
Gu Chaoci didn't expect that the old monk was so powerful that he would also play this kind of trick with him, and couldn't help but say: "Master, if you want to win with this, then I'll go!" ”
Between the words, "Huhuhu" came out of the palm one after another, the palm power rushed in four directions, and the old monk's palm force touched it, and he felt that the stacking strength was like a mountain, and it was difficult to go deep.
The old monk laughed and said, "Layman, don't be irritable! "Swift like flying light, in the middle of the barren mountains turned around, turned west, and never made a move.
Gu Chaoci thought that the old monk should want to tell himself that in the real life and death fight, he occupies a favorable geographical position, and the odds of winning are higher!
But I also know that I will not be convinced by such an act!
But he also wanted to have a good fight with him, so he had to follow all the way, and when he reached a flat place in the forest, the old monk stopped.
Gu Chaoci snorted coldly: "It's good here, please!" ”
The word "please" came out and struck out with a palm.
The distance between him and the old monk, to say a little, is also three zhang, and this palm will not hit it in any case.
But he struck out with a palm, and walked with his palm, once the light skill of "swallow three copying water" was performed, only one ups and downs, and he reached the back of the old monk, and the distance between the two sides suddenly shrank to within reach.
This palm slapped down on his shoulder, and the palm wind seemed to erupt from the blast furnace, the touch was like a hot touch, and the palm momentum covered the old monk's figure, no matter how he dodged and escaped, it was too late.
How do you know that when he slapped this palm, the old monk smiled and said, "Do the laymen have to defeat the old monk to stop!" ”
He said and laughed, but before he turned around, he flicked his right palm lightly, and casually greeted Gu Chao's resignation.
"Don't dare!" Gu Chaoci also smiled: "You can also defeat me!" ”
When the two spoke, their palms intersected, and the old monk only felt that Gu Chaoci's palm was like a red-hot soldering iron, and there was an extremely strong suction.
