The guard saint lord is respected, and Jin Ge Iron Horse falls into a deep dream.

Danxin lives up to the good name, and scatters the pure air.

In my sleep, when my soul flew out of Chang Yuchun's body, I didn't return to the Grand Canyon, but came to a special place, a somewhat dark confined space, I felt a little strange, but no one could give me an answer.

In this space, there were already twenty-seven, souls like me gathered here, and when I first appeared here, at the same time, an illusory figure appeared with an indistinct face.

Then we saw this illusory figure, came to us, unfolded a portrait of an emperor, and said: "This person is a great figure in the lower realm, named Ai Xinjueluo Xuanye, who follows him, and will have great merit in the future, which of you is willing to protect him?" Everyone in this space responded together, saying that they were willing to protect him.

The illusory figure said again: "However, protecting the emperor, the errand is hard and dangerous, you have to think about it." Then someone wavered and retreated thirteen people.

He said to the remaining fifteen, "Come with me." "He led us into a room where there were five pictures, but they were so white that nothing could be seen.

He said: "If you want to protect the emperor, you have to go through the test to see if you have endurance and perseverance, and you have to go through the five severe tests of ice array, light array, knife array, hail array, and standing pile, before you can qualify." Hearing these five terrible trials, seven more retreated.

He said to the remaining eight, "Are you willing to be tested?" The eight of us nodded, and he pointed, and the eight of us entered different diagrams.

When I entered a picture, I already knew that I was the first to enter the ice array, the cold in the ice array was irresistible, I was so cold that I shivered all over my body, my upper teeth knocked on my lower teeth, and the sound was endless, and there was only one feeling in my mind - cold, from head to toe, I felt that I was gradually frozen, my body became hard, and my eyes would not move.

Then the cold hit the body, and I felt that the organs in my body were gradually frozen by the ice ballast, and that kind of freezing made you clearly feel the changes in the body, and the organs in the body made a rustling sound when frozen, and finally the whole person became an iceman, and I don't know how long it took, I only felt that I was still breathing, and I found myself in a space again.

In the space here, the sun is shining, the first feeling of warmth melts, after a while, the body thaws, the whole body is out of the water, the internal organs of the body are thawing, a hundred itching and heart, that kind of itching, stinging, cat scratching dog bite, a hundred ants attacking the heart all come up together, making people feel painful.

As soon as this feeling was relieved, I felt that the sun was scorching, unobstructed, and there was direct sunlight everywhere, and the sunlight was mixed with a dazzling golden light, which made my temples swell and I couldn't open my eyes.

I feel that the water in my body is evaporating, my skin is wrinkled, my body is dry, and in turn, the water in my internal organs is also evaporating and gradually becoming withered. At this time, I thought that I might be turning into jerky, and this feeling of dying was not dead, and suddenly, my body floated up and entered a space again.

At this time, the sword god appeared, and the sword god pointed to the shining sword array on the ground and said, "Go over!" "I curled up, curled up in a ball, and rolled down from the endless array of knives, each sharper and more sad. At first time, I felt that my body was cut by a knife, and I felt that the flesh had been cut, revealing the bones, and there was a grinding sound between the bones and the knife, and the feeling of breaking the bones.

Then, I felt that there was no part of the internal organs that was not touched by the blade, and it was cut thinly. I gritted my teeth and rolled over an uphill array of knives, feeling even more pain. The knife formation is rapidly changing again, called the magic knife formation, and the knife becomes strangely shaped, trying to slash and chop every cell you have as much as possible, and the time feels even longer.

At this time, there was only one thought in my mind: I have to pass. I gritted my teeth and persevered, and finally reached the top of the slope. Unexpectedly, he fell directly into the abyss, his heart fell and fell, and finally fell to the ground, in pain, he thought, he was relieved, this thought was not finished, and he saw the hail split his head and cover his face, and it turned out that I fell into the hail array.

At first the hailstone was the size of a soybean, and it hurt and numb my whole body, and at first it was able to support it, and then the hail was as strong as an egg, and the hail as big as an egg fell from all directions, and I almost went out of my body.

Then, I felt that my body had expanded a lot, and the area hit by the hail became larger, and the pain increased a lot. Many pits were smashed into every part of the body, and the pits were painful and cold. The hail was endless, smashing my will and my body falling apart. I don't know how long it took to smash, the hail stopped, and the ice fairy appeared, dressed in white clothes made of ice, with ice silk hair, white frost silk on his eyelashes, and his body was that transparent cold, with cold air in his mouth, he helped me up and pushed me into the next space.

In this space, there were many white people standing in this place whose faces could not be seen clearly, and I was wondering when I heard a voice say, "Start practicing standing exercises, don't fall down." "At this moment, two people rushed towards me, and I couldn't stand still, and I was just trying to get out of the way, when people appeared from all directions to stop me. They squeezed me together, squeezing me to the point where I felt like they were going to squeeze me flat, so that I didn't have a moment to breathe. I was so tired that I wanted to squat, but I couldn't. I felt that the internal organs that were being squeezed were deformed, and all my internal organs had to be spit out of my mouth. In my mind, I knew that I was practicing standing exercises. In the end, I felt that there was only a layer of skin left in my body, and then I relaxed, and I crossed into a space, where the illusory figure appeared again, bowed to us with a smile, and said, "Congratulations to the eight, you have passed the level." "After passing the level, the eight of us are like being reborn, handsome and brave, and have an extraordinary temperament, which is also the process of condensing the original spirit.

At this time, another person appeared, took out eight notebooks, and said, "Look at this notebook and prepare to be reincarnated!" "In this book, it's like playing a movie, the scene is constantly changing, and I see the whole process of my life from birth, martial arts, protecting the emperor in the palace, to death.

After reading this book, the eight of us gathered together, and the man took out a box with the words "Ouchi Master" pasted on it, and said to us, "This is your duty, and it is also your virtue, go and be reincarnated." "The eight of us entered the box, the box went down, and in one space, the lid of the box opened, and the eight of us were reincarnated.

This dream is very long, I found that I was born in Manchuria Eight Banners with Yellow Flag Guerjia, is the eldest son of the family, named Ayige, since childhood love martial arts, the family spent a lot of money to hire a martial artist to teach me, taught for half a year, I feel incompetent, and in all parts of the country, invited some other martial artists, but they are not long to teach and left.

When I was 12 years old, by chance, I became good friends with the eldest son of the Niu Lu Ezhen Uzir Bege family under Zhenghuang, named Kangzel, who, like me, had been fond of martial arts since childhood, so the two families negotiated to pay for it together and hired a martial artist, who called himself Nanmen, but did not tell us his name, and when he saw us, he said that our body was suitable for martial arts, so he did his best to teach us.

I and Conzel have a strong comprehension, and we are particularly able to endure hardships and work hard, so we have practiced a good martial arts, all kinds of soft and hard kung fu and cornices and walls are naturally not a problem, and Conzel also practiced a unique skill - iron bullet kung fu.

There are two kinds of iron marbles he practiced, one is single, the size of a lychee, round, with a relatively smooth surface, and it is thrown out directly when used. The other is called the mother and son marbles, the shell is as big as an egg, the surface is rough, and there is a circlip inside, and three small iron beads are fixed inside. There is a deerskin case on the left forearm, and the marbles are placed in it, and they are thrown out directly when used. The lethality of the marbles is very great, and after being thrown out, when approaching the opponent's body, the shell of the marbles is opened, and the three small iron beads inside pop out at the same time in three directions, which makes people unguardable.

If the strength is appropriate, three small iron beads can hit three acupuncture points, and the opponent will definitely die, and the next time it can hit two acupuncture points, either death or injury.

The reason why the marbles are placed in the case made of deerskin is because the deerskin is relatively soft and has no sound. Although the master taught him the kung fu of iron marbles, he told him to use them with caution, especially the marbles, which he usually does not carry with him.

Master Nanmen taught us for three years before leaving, and since then we have often interacted with some people who are dancing with guns and sticks and learning skills. Before we knew it, we had reached the age of seventeen, because we were careful and had no distractions, and our minds were all devoted to practicing martial arts, so we were already well-known martial arts masters in the local area.

On this day, I and Kang Zeer together, is in my home together to practice martial arts, a tour of the monk just passed by my door, after seeing Kang Zeer, the mouth reads: "The ear is in, the ear is nothing", we are you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what the monk is doing, we are busy asking the monk to stay, but the monk said "don't worry, don't worry" and left.

This year, the palace strictly selected guards, and we were all selected, entered the palace, and were soon promoted to be the emperor's personal bodyguards.

As the emperor's guard, I feel a great responsibility and dare not slack off. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the political situation was not very stable, and those who opposed the restoration of the Qing Dynasty did not want to admit this change in celestial phenomena, and sometimes came to assassinate the emperor, who was often in visible or invisible danger.

As a guard, you must be extra energetic when you are on duty, and sometimes when you hear a little noise, the sword is unsheathed and in a state of battle. Over time, Conzel and I could distinguish the sound of the cat walking across the ridge of the roof, and the sounds coming from afar; His eyesight is also excellent, and he can see the shadows of animals or people on the roof ridge far away, and there are more than ten fights of swords and swords a year, and his nerves are extremely tense.

As a guard, the emperor has to follow wherever he goes, the guards take turns to protect the emperor, or on the night shift, or on the day shift, all year round, wind, frost, rain and snow, severe cold and heat, the seasons change, and the guards are the most sensitive.

The emperor is also very good to the guards, sometimes the weather is cold, the guards are outside, the emperor asks people to send hot mare's milk tea to warm up the guards, when the summer sun is scorching, the emperor asks people to send iced tea, to relieve the heat of the guards, and the guards are also grateful to the emperor.

Together with Conzel, I often made rounds in the first half of the night, but I couldn't make a sound, and when I was tired, I sometimes stood against the pillar for a while. In the middle of the night, the emperor occasionally asked us to go in alone, talk, ask something, to protect the emperor, but also to involve less of the emperor's energy, try not to alarm the emperor, the emperor often gets up in the morning, only to know what happens at night.

That night, the shadow saw a person, and in a flash, Conzel saw the opportunity to throw out an iron bullet, only to hear a muffled sound, the man fell to the ground, Konzell approached with a sword, watched carefully, and found that the man was dead. On another occasion, an iron bullet hit a person, who was wounded and fled, and Ouchi's guards searched everywhere but could not find him. Eventually, this person was found in a rockery cave during the day, but he was dying, and a letter insulting the emperor was found on this person.

One of the Assassins had come across a man who was using a drug, and one of the guards was a master of antidotes, and the guard sensed that something was wrong with the air and pretended to fall, while the other guard was also alert and quickly fell down.

As the Assassin walked between them, they leapt to their feet and knocked him to the ground. Before he could be interrogated, the man was dead. It turned out that he had poison in his mouth in advance, and the assassination failed, so he committed suicide by taking poison, in order to be able to assassinate the emperor, these people can be said to have worked hard.

To be a guard is not only to be bold, but also to be careful. Once, after a guard wounded an assassin with a concealed weapon, he let his guard down, and while examining the person, the person's eyes suddenly opened, his mouth spat out, and more than a dozen poisonous needles were spit out of his mouth, and shot in the guard's face and body. The guard next to him hurriedly stepped forward and ended the man's life with a single sword.

The guard who was injected with the poison needle soon had a swollen body, and the skin of his whole body was bubbling with yellow poisonous gas, and pus was constantly oozing out, and when he was in pain, we asked us to kill him, and we couldn't bear to do it. In the end, the guard died in excruciating pain, and our hearts were heavy.

In my fourth year and a half as a guard, I encountered a strong opponent at night, and first two nocturnal walkers appeared, one for me and one for Conzel, and one guard watched from the sidelines. When I was passing the trick, in a flash, I saw three people rushing towards the palace gate, and after the guard who was watching the battle found out, he hurriedly stepped forward to block and stopped the three people who were approaching.

I saw it in my eyes and was anxious in my heart, and I made a false move at the enemy in front of me, and met the three men, only to be accidentally slashed by this man.

Conzel was shocked and angry, and under the anger, he threw out three marbles in a row, knocking down the three people, and the opponent in front of him, while Conzel threw the iron beads, a sword slashed, Conzel couldn't dodge, and his left ear was cut off.

Conzel became more and more angry, holding a sword in his hand, staring at the two people in front of him murderously, holding a belief: they must not be allowed to succeed, and at the same time, the brain was running rapidly, and it was estimated that the other guards should also come at this time, so he shook his left hand falsely, made an iron bead, held a sword in his right hand, and the human sword was one, and rushed towards an old man, and the old man slapped a horizontal palm at Conzel, and Conzel felt a force, and rushed to the young man, and the sword fell in his hand, killing him.

The old man screamed, and his hands were blurred with blood and flesh and madness rushed towards Conzel, and in a flash, the old man rushed to the corpse, hugged the corpse, and muttered: "My son, my son." "It turned out to be father and son.

The guards who had arrived surrounded him, and as if he had not noticed, he laid down the corpse and took out a strangely shaped weapon, which was a strange weapon, and it must have its superhuman features.

Seeing this, the guards did not give him a moment's time, and worked together to quickly subdue him. He saw that the general trend had gone, and he shook his pulse. At this time, the emperor walked out, and everyone bowed down to greet him, saying, "I have disturbed the holy car, please forgive the emperor." The emperor waved his hand and began to inquire about the casualties of the guards.

As soon as Conzel and I relaxed, Conzel's injuries were much worse than mine, and suddenly he felt unbearable pain in his ears, and Conzel shook and passed out.

The next morning, the emperor sent someone to visit, and the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang also came to visit in person, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was kind and dignified, giving people a sense of sanctity and inviolability, and instructed me and Kang Cel to take good care of it, and let the imperial doctor study it, and prepare to give Kang Cel a false ear.

The term of office of the guards is five years, and a batch of them must be replaced every five years, and there is an unwritten rule here, that is, when the term of office of the guards is replaced, the old guards should stay with the new guards for a few days, telling him a lot of experience and what to pay attention to.

The person who succeeded me was called Hag, and the person who succeeded Conzel was Batu, and the person who replaced Konzell was called Haim, and the guards passed on their hearts and minds one by one, making the guard system more rigorous, in order to better protect the emperor.

When we served for five years, the emperor invited us to a banquet for six guards, the original eight people, two died, at first, we were a little depressed, feeling that the days with the emperor were over, and we were in a bad mood.

In the past five years, we have felt comfortable when we see the emperor, and the emperor is benevolent, is a master, and now we are about to resign, I feel lost in my heart, and the emperor is also very reluctant to us, we said some words of blessing to the emperor, and then took turns to toast to the emperor.

One of the guards, the more mature Aum, on behalf of all of us, said our common words to the emperor: "Today's farewell, I don't know when we will see you again, the emperor has another messenger, we will listen to the announcement at any time." ”

The emperor said: "In ancient times, I hope that we will continue our fate in the future, and you will not hide when the time comes." At the time of parting, the emperor gave each of us a beautifully decorated box, which contained a large pearl and a jade ruyi.

Three months after we went home, I often went to visit him at Conzel's house, because since his ears were cut off, he often had more pain, and it looked very painful, and on this day, Conzel's ears began to hurt again, and Lang Zhong couldn't see the reason for inviting him, so he took off the false ears at Conzel's request, but the ears were still painful after being removed, and caused headaches and dizziness.

In the end, Conzel died half a month later, when Conzel was only twenty-two years old, before he died, Conzel told me what the monk said, that is, "the ear is there, the ear is not", I and Conzel have realized, it turns out that life and death are certain, although Konzeer's life is hard and short, but it is also his choice without regrets.

Ever since the death of my good friend Conzel, I have also been disheartened, without the playmates I grew up with, and suddenly I feel lonely and lonely, and my family has begun to give me marriage matters, but I have taken these things very lightly.

Because I have experienced too many moments of life and death, I came up with the idea of traveling the world and visiting martial arts masters.

This year I was twenty-one years old, and I married Niu Hulu, a girl named Ruyan, she was born handsome and lovely, and very considerate, the care of me can be described as meticulous, to my parents are also very filial piety, gradually I slowly came out of the shadow of the loss of good friends, we husband and wife sang with the wife, I lived a carefree and happy life.

However, unfortunate things still happened, this year I was twenty-three years old, Ruyan was already pregnant at the time, on the day of delivery, Ruyan dystocia, which can make me anxious outside the house like ants on a hot pot, the midwife and the maids were busy for a whole day, when the child was born successfully, I waited for a bad news, that is, Ruyan died because of dystocia.

I held the baby in my arms, tears rained down, because the relationship between our husband and wife was so good, and the death of Ruyan gave me another heavy blow, and I fell into loneliness and loneliness again.

At this time, I was already disheartened, and I didn't have any nostalgia for life, so I came up with the idea of becoming a monk, and when I said this idea, I got the unanimous opposition of the whole family, and my parents began to call me a family affair in order to dispel my idea, but now I no longer have these ideas, and I only want to become a monk.

So, one night when I was twenty-three years old, I packed up and left a letter for my family, and I flew into the room, and since then I have left my home and my family.

When I came to Wutai Mountain, I explained my intention to the abbot here, and concealed my past from the abbot, the abbot was also surprised when he saw me, because I had been practicing martial arts for many years, and my body was already different from ordinary people, and the abbot looked at me for a while, and said with a smile: "As a person who practices martial arts, why do you have the idea of becoming a monk?" With your skills, you can carve out a world of your own. ”

When the abbot said this, I was also surprised, I didn't expect this abbot to know that I was a person who practiced martial arts, so he stepped forward and bowed down and said: "What you said is right, I am indeed a person who practices martial arts, but I have seen through the world, and I have no worries in my heart, please take me as an apprentice!" ”

The abbot smiled: "It's not difficult for me to accept you, but you have to promise me a condition, and if you don't agree to this condition, then you can please go back." ”

I hurriedly asked, "What are the conditions?" ”

The abbot said: "If you want to become a monk, you can't show your martial arts in front of people, and you can't fight with others anymore, as long as you promise not to use force again, I will take you as an apprentice." ”

Without any hesitation, I said, "I am willing to never use force again, please accept me!" As I spoke, I bowed down to the abbot.

Since then, there is one less "master of the inner house" in the martial arts, but there is one more monk who practices, and the Dharma name is clear, so I lived in Wutai Mountain for five years, during these five years, I studied Buddhism with the monks in the temple, and my heart became more and more calm, as if I had seen through life and death.

On this day, the abbot preached in the hall of the Buddha hall, I and the monks listened carefully, and at the end, the abbot called my name, I didn't know what it was, so I came forward and knelt in front of the abbot, and I heard the abbot say: "Tongming, you have been a monk for several years, your qualifications are outstanding, and your comprehension of the Dharma is very strong. ”

I know that there are conditions to become a wandering monk, but not everyone can do it, which shows that the abbot has confidence in me.

On the occasion of my parting, the abbot said a verse: "Enter the forest, meet the baby and be born, listen to the wind and be round, see the clouds and be silent." ”

I repeatedly asked the abbot what this meant, but the abbot just smiled and said nothing, and finally I had to give up, and I said goodbye to the abbot and the monks, and from then on I began to travel all over the country.

On this day, I wandered to an apricot grove, and faintly heard the cry of a baby in the forest, and I was curious, so I strode in.

I found that on the ground in the forest, there was a package, and the baby's cry came from the package, I went up to open it and looked, and was shocked, it turned out that the package was a baby girl.

Now I made a difficulty, as a wandering monk, I couldn't take the baby girl with me, I wanted to turn around and leave, but I saw that the baby was pitiful, and my heart was full of compassion, I sighed softly, and rescued the baby girl on the ground.

I didn't think much about it, but after much investigation in a village at the foot of the mountain, I finally found a kind family who was willing to take in the baby, and I handed over the baby girl to the family and left.

In the blink of an eye, eighteen years have passed, in these few years, I wandered around, hungry and full, I also obeyed the agreement, never showed martial arts to anyone, in this hardship to understand the true meaning of life, and therefore, there is a famous wandering monk in the world.

On this day, I came to a small village called Fengyun Village, and stayed at a farmhouse, because my arrival also brought a little vitality to this remote village, because I would be here every day to give lectures to the villagers.

That night, I was meditating in the house when I heard a slight noise outside the door, and although I had never shown my martial arts to anyone, I still had many years of martial arts skills.

In an instant, a dart was fired from outside the house, I reacted quickly, dodged one by one, and saw a man standing outside the door, holding a steel knife and slashing at me, I kept dodging, but did not fight back.

When the man saw that I didn't fight back, he stopped and said, "Why don't you fight back!" ”

I laughed and said, "I don't even know you, why fight back?" Can you tell me why you came to assassinate me? ”

The man snorted coldly and said, "Do you remember the father and son you killed more than twenty years ago when you were a guard in Ouchi?" I am their descendant! You really make it easy for me to find, and today I want you to pay for your blood debt! ”

When I heard this, I finally understood the reason, but now I didn't have any anger, I was calm, and slowly said to him: "Hey! Killing people to pay for their lives, debts to pay back, this is a matter of course, I did create those killings at the beginning, but it was also to protect the emperor, in this case, I don't need you to do it today, lest you be contaminated with killing, I will cut it myself! ”

As I spoke, I sat down cross-legged and closed my eyes, and at this time I remembered the words that Master had said at this time when I was going down Wutai Mountain: "Enter the forest, meet the baby and be born, listen to the wind and be round, and see the clouds and be silent." "It turned out to mean that when I passed through the apricot forest, I saved a baby girl, and since that time I have given birth to a compassionate heart, and I have passed away in this Fengyun Village, I think of this, and finally completely understand, look up to the sky and laugh, and say: "Life is like a play!" Life is like a dream! Ok, good, good! After saying that, he sat down in the courtyard.

The man on the other side sat down and died when he saw me like this, sighed, flew up to the room and left quickly.

The next day, when I woke up in the dream, I was still a little sad in my heart, every detail in the dream, every feeling, every character's expression, all vivid, there were regrets in my heart, but also cherished, but time will not go back, life is still going on, I will go to meet the new day.
