Chapter 57: Three chapters of the Phoenix Dance Swordsmanship

The python struggled, twisting back and forth on the ground beneath the cavern, and after a while, gradually stopped wriggling.

Gu Shengchao was not at ease, so he first went over and kicked the python a few times, pulled out the sword inserted into its eyes, and confirmed that it was dead, so he beckoned to Wan Ruo and motioned for her to come over.

Wan Ruo took the sword without saying a word, skillfully cut open the skin and flesh of the python, and took out its snake gall bladder in a bloody paste. Gu Shengchao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, such a tough lady, it would be better to provoke less in the future.

Gu Shengchao was not in a hurry to go up to the cave to check, he first picked up dry firewood and lit a bonfire, and after waiting for a while, it was estimated that the miasma in the cave had dissipated, and then he raised the torch and carefully climbed the steps, Wan Ruo was also curious, and followed him.

There are four caves in total, and the first one is stacked with sundries, which have long been weathered, and if you touch them lightly with your hands, they will turn into dust in an instant. The second room is used as a kitchen for cooking, and the stove is specially carved out to make a fire. The third room was empty for some reason, and the last room was equally empty, the only difference being that the stone walls were carved with patterns and words. Perhaps it is because of its age, and the tidal erosion is a little blurred.

Gu Shengchao carefully identified it, and still recognized the four big characters: the three articles of the Phoenix Dance Sword Technique.

He couldn't help but shake when he was excited, and the torch was almost in his hand, and the flames were swaying up and down.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" If you think that Gu Shengchao suddenly fell ill, you care.

Gu Shengchao couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart, he pointed to the four big characters and said excitedly: "Look, it's the Feng Dance Sword Technique, and the three strokes of the Phoenix Dance Sword Technique are originally here." ”

He calmed down a little, and told Wan Ruo everything he saw with Ding Ying in the Luoyawan Cave, and he let out a sigh of relief and said: "I showed Senior Lu the Feng Wu swordsmanship I learned, and he said that the swordsmanship seems to be weird and short, but now it seems that Senior Lu has a sharp eye. ”

"Of course, when I was a girl, I asked Brother Lu Chuan some moves, although it was not much, it was a great benefit, and his understanding of kung fu is definitely comparable to others." Wan Ruo also admires Lu Chuan.

Gu Shengchao thought of a question: "Senior Lu is my mentor and your eldest brother, what should we call him next time we see him at the same time?" ”

Wan Ruo smiled: "Each is called his own, who made us husband and wife, this is the only way." "Wan Ruo's whole body is dark, and the teeth that are exposed when he smiles are extraordinarily white.

Gu Shengchao raised the torch and approached the stone wall, carefully identifying each word by word, and roughly understood the meaning.

It turned out that the Dawu Dynasty was founded, and Xia Errong made great contributions, and the phoenix dance sought the phoenix swordsmanship, and was named the brave general by the founder of the dynasty, and became a hot figure at that time. There is often a crisis lurking behind the scenery, the emperor saw that Xia Errong was in power for a while, and he was a little afraid, lest Xia Errong rebel one day and his life would not be guaranteed, so he let his younger brother create the Wuwang Palace, which was used to divide Xia Errong's forces.

The Phoenix Dance Sword Technique was originally a double sword, Xia Errong only taught the left hand sword Phoenix Dance Sword Technique to his disciple Gongsun Qiu, and the right hand Sword Seeking Phoenix Sword Technique was taught to the disciple Sima Xicheng, and he privately told them not to let them learn from each other, saying that there would be arrangements in the future. Suddenly, one day Xia Errong died violently, Gongsun Qiu was also imprisoned by Sima Xicheng, forced to hand over all the tricks of the Feng Wu swordsmanship, Gongsun Qiu had to write half of the half-truth, and then took the opportunity to escape with the Feng Wu Sword, and adopted an abandoned baby on the way, named Gongsun Le, and the two came to this island according to each other.

Gongsun Le gradually grew up and became an adult, and Gongsun Qiu also taught him the Feng Wu swordsmanship, but because of the previous encounter, Gongsun Qiu kept an eye on it, and he left the three major killing moves not taught. Sure enough, late one night, Gongsun Le stole the Fengwu Sword and escaped. Gongsun Qiu blocked halfway, although Gongsun Qiu had the advantage in moves, but Gongsun Le was young and strong, and the phoenix dance sword in his hand was a rare magic weapon in the world, and in the end Gongsun Qiu was defeated and injured. Gongsun Le saw that he did not kill him in the old master-apprentice relationship, and escaped alone.

Gongsun Qiu came to the age, and the second was imprisoned by Sima Xicheng when he was tortured and injured his body, this time after the injury, he felt that the end was approaching, so he carved the last three moves on the stone wall, hoping that after Gongsun Le came back to see it, he could remember the kindness of taking care of him for many years to help him collect his body and bury it in the back mountain. Gu Shengchao looked at the three moves carved by Gongsun Qiu, all of them were holding a sword with his left hand, and it is unknown why he later changed it to holding a sword with his right hand.

Gu Shengchao sighed, Gongsun Le must have never come back, otherwise the Feng Wu Sword Technique would not be missing. The cave was empty, and Gongsun Qiu's remains must have been devoured by these pythons. The space in the cave was narrow, and the sword could not be used, Gu Shengchao memorized all the moves and mental methods of the remaining three moves, and saw that the torch was about to be extinguished, so he and Wan Ruo left the cave.

When he came outside, Gu Shengchao was still emotional. The change of dynasties and the rise and fall of sects are inseparable from the word "greed", and it is precisely because of personal greed and selfishness that various contradictions and disputes have been created. At the big level, the country is in turmoil, and at the small level, family discord is roughly the same.

Gu Shengchao told Wan Ruo all the moves and mental methods of the Feng Wu Sword Technique, Wan Ruo was also a martial artist, and practiced one move at a time. The two discussed with each other, and by the time they had mastered all the phoenix dance swordsmanship, it was already the beginning of the red sun, and under the background of the morning glow, the entire island was shrouded in a pink misty morning mist.

Wan Ruo danced towards Caixia, like a fairy descending to earth, Gu Shengchao stared at her with obsessed eyes, and his saliva was about to flow out.

"What are you looking at?" Wan Ruojiao shouted, she lowered her head only to find that the black mud on her body had already been dried by body temperature, and it fell off piece by piece, revealing a large area of smooth skin like fat.

"Ahh Wan Ruo screamed loudly, her face was flushed and she jumped up in panic, not knowing where to cover with her hand, she stabbed Gu Shengchao with a sword in her hand, and scolded angrily: "Turn around." ”

"I didn't do it, so you know that you bullied me." Gu Shengchao muttered in his mouth and reluctantly turned away. After waiting for a while, Wan Ruo called him: "Okay, you can turn around." ”

Gu Shengchao turned around and looked at it, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, if he peeled off the python's snake skin and wrapped it around his body, it looked really funny.

"Don't laugh." Wan Ruo ordered, took the snake gall in his hand and led the way, and Gu Shengchao picked up the iron box containing the silver krait and followed.

Although the python died, the aftermath was still there, and many poisonous snakes along the way avoided the smell of the python, and the two returned to the shore smoothly. Wang Ruo asked Gu Shengchao to turn around and not peek, she washed off the dirt on her body in the river and changed into clean clothes, which allowed Gu Shengchao to go over, and the two jumped over the turbulent river and returned to the wooden house halfway up the mountain to rest.

After sleeping until the evening, Gu Shengchao went to check that the remaining wooden houses were uninhabited, so he asked Wan Ruo if they had already gone back.

Wan Ruo picked up a strand of hair hanging down and coiled it behind his head: "Medicine farmers are very hard, sometimes in order to pick suitable branches or fruits, they need to walk between cliffs, tie themselves with ropes and go down to the depths of the cliff to pick, and it is possible to go for several days. ”

Gu Shengchao also admired their hardships, and after the two of them ate dry food indiscriminately, they practiced the phoenix dance swordsmanship they had just learned on the grass. Both of them are not very flexible with their left hands, so they forced themselves to adapt, and they felt it when they practiced until the willow on the moon, and you came and I practiced against each other.

Wan Ruo's original swordsmanship was exquisite, otherwise it would be impossible for one person to defeat the seven-star sword formation joined by the six of them on the Seven Star Cliff, Gu Shengchao had never practiced in a regular sect, his swordsmanship was rough, and he was obviously at a disadvantage in the sparring, and from time to time the sword in his hand was picked off by Wan Ruo, or he would have let the family kick down. Fortunately, the ancient saint is super tenacious, the more he falls, the more he gets up again and again and insists on competing, and in the end, Wan Ruo is also afraid, panting and waving his hand: "I won't practice with you anymore, let's do it another day, I'm so tired that I can't practice." ”

The two of them were not tired for the time being, and sat side by side in front of the wooden house looking at the night sky to rest.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound of fallen leaves in the dense forest, which was obviously the sound of someone stepping on it. The two turned their heads at the same time, thinking that the medicine farmers had returned from collecting medicine.

"Be careful, there's a lot of people around here." A man lowered his voice.

"I know, it's safe to get through here."

Two people crept out of the woods, one was of medium stature with a broken right arm and a knife in his left hand, and the other was holding a knife, both cautiously looking around. They looked at the side of the wooden house, and Gu Shengchao and Wan Ruo, who had already stood side by side, also looked at them.

"Someone." The man with the Pu knife turned around and ran into the woods, the man with the broken right arm was slightly stunned and fled to the other side, Gu Shengchao did not hesitate to chase after the man with the broken right arm.

In the darkness of the night, the dense forest was dim, and nothing could be seen in the darkness ten steps away, and the ancient saint had superior perception, looking for the breath of the other party and chasing after him. Suddenly, that breath stopped, Gu Shengchao chased forward a few steps, the blade whistled and slashed diagonally, Gu Shengchao leaned over to avoid the momentum and stretched out his legs to sweep. The man thought that he could succeed in the surprise attack, but he didn't want Gu Shengchao to dodge, he was shocked, and he was swept to his ankle and fell backwards by Gu Shengchao if he couldn't dodge in time.

The man was also quick-witted, and the tip of the knife turned deftly on the ground, while the tip of the knife picked up the dirt and gravel on the ground and threw it at Gu Shengchao. The Ancient Saint Super Iron Wall Divine Skill Protector stiffly greeted him, and stretched out his hand to grab the man. The man was frightened, he didn't dare to fight against Gu Shengchao, so he ran away.

The woods are dark and the roads are twisting and turning, and there are towering trees everywhere, so even during the day it is impossible to run fast, and it is even more difficult to move forward at night. The Ancient Saint Super could sense the breath of a living creature as it breathed, and the trees could only distinguish it with their eyes wide open, and accidentally bumped into it.

The two of them walked through the dense forest one after the other, until the dawn was about to break, and neither could help anyone. Gu Shengchao once wanted to use the Five Soul Array to trap the other party, but he couldn't see anything in the dark, and he might hit the tree while trapping the other party, thinking about it, it still outweighed the loss.

The man in front of him suddenly put away his single knife, soared forward and grabbed the branch like an ape, and swung it over, although he only had one hand, and it was not affected much.

Gu Sheng was overjoyed, and he pounced hard at his feet, trying to grab the man's legs. Seeing that he was about to reach out, the man's palm turned upwards with force, dodging Gu Shengchao's grasp. Gu Shengchao was not in a hurry, the man's speed had slowed down, and as long as his feet were in the air, he would definitely be able to capture the man.

However, Gu Shengchao's feet were empty, and his body fell straight down. It was then that he realized that there was a ravine below, and he had fallen without warning.
