Chapter Seventy-One: The World's Food

The wait is long, especially when you don't know when the wait will end.

Among the masters, except for Master Kongkong, Wudang Sansuo, Xuyun Shitai and Lu Bucai, everyone else came to Zhongnan Mountain for the first time, and when they had nothing to do, they walked around, and time passed quickly.

This time to find the Great Netherworld Sutra, Zhang Lingtian wanted to invite the people had already arrived, Tianlong sent Zhu Yu, Lan Tian, Lan Ling'er and Luo Lin to Zhongnan Mountain by mistake, Zhang Lingtian's post to Yang Rourou was still on the way, so he sent his disciples to recover it, because the Tianlong faction wanted to send people, and probably would send Zhu Yu and a few of them, so there was no need to trouble Yang Meng's master.

Wudang Sansuo had been invited by Zhang Lingtian before, and it was just right to rush over at this time.

Master Xuyun had just received an invitation letter from Zhang Lingtian a few days ago, and in order to find Lan Ling'er and Zhu Yu, he also brought his disciples by the way.

For the Qingcheng faction, because it was the closest to Zhongnan Mountain, Zhang Lingtian was preparing his disciples to inform the Qingcheng faction, but the four sons of Qingcheng came to Zhongnan Mountain by mistake, which also saved the twists and turns along the way.

The Diancang Sect and the Wuliang Sect are in the south, the road is far away, and they have just returned from Shouyang Mountain, and some people have been injured, and they have to recuperate and recover, this time looking for the Great Netherworld Sutra, Zhang Lingtian did not intend to disturb them.

Zhang Lingtian thought that the various factions that came, plus Master Kongkong and Lu Bucai, counted nearly twenty people, especially a few first-class masters such as Master Kongkong, it should be more than enough to deal with the Soul Chaser Witch and Linghu Wuyan.

Three months ago, Zhang Lingtian got the news that near Kunlun Mountain, there were traces of the Soul Chasing Witch and Linghu Wuwu, so Zhang Lingtian sent his disciples Zhou Tianzhi, Zhao Tiantian and Wang Yuezhao to inquire about the news.

Before leaving, Zhang Lingtian repeatedly instructed the three of them that as long as they followed the two from a distance, they should never have direct contact with them, and once they were sure where they were, they would immediately return to Zhongnanshan or fly pigeons to inform them.

Up to now, the three of them have left Zhongnan Mountain for three months, and no one has come back to inform the news, nor has they received a message from the flying pigeon, which makes Zhang Lingtian sure that the three of them must have gotten the news they wanted, but the soul chasing witch Qiu Lin and Linghu Wuya have not settled in a fixed place.

Twenty years ago, Master Kongkong had visited Kongtong Mountain, but it was already dilapidated, and even the disciples did not know where to go, this time to see Lu Bucai, Master Kongkong was naturally very happy, he did not expect that in his lifetime, he could also discuss the martial arts of Kongtong School with the masters of Kongtong School.

The most famous martial arts of the Kongtong faction, called Yixing Boxing, has long heard of this boxing method, but he has never seen anyone demonstrate this boxing method, and has always liked to study and compare the martial arts of various factions, in order to find their own advantages and disadvantages, and improve their Shaolin Gongfu Master Kongkong, naturally will not let go of the opportunity to learn from Lu Bucai.

Master Kongkong once said to Zhu Yu that the world's martial arts come out of Shaolin, but for thousands of years, each faction has learned Shaolin martial arts and evolved, which has its own reason.

So, in the past few days, Master Kongkong made an appointment with Lu Bucai, and the two closed the door to discuss martial arts, only when eating, the disciples of Tianling Dao knocked on the door three or five times, and the two went out of the room to eat, but they quickly finished eating, and closed the door to discuss martial arts.

Zhu Yu wanted to ask Master Kongkong about a few things that he didn't understand about the Hercules Palm, but when he saw that Master Kongkong and Lu Bucai were so fascinated by discussing martial arts, it was inconvenient to bother, so he only practiced Qi behind closed doors with Lan Tian.

In the afternoon of this day, Zhu Yu and Lan Tian were practicing qi in the room as a few days ago, and suddenly, Lan Ling'er came to knock on the door.

"Zhu Yu, brother, let's go for a walk in the mountains together, we're going to suffocate to death."

Lan Ling'er is very active, practicing for an hour or two every day, she can't stay still anymore, she has to run around every day to settle down, these days, she has caught butterflies in and out of the courtyard of the Tianling Sect to make specimens, but she is very busy, today the butterfly is almost caught, so I came to invite Zhu Yu and Lan Tian to go out to play.

"Ling'er, let's talk about it, where to play?" Zhu Yu opened the door and asked with squinted eyes.

"I heard from the disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Dao that in the dense forest of Zhongnan Mountain, there is a fiery red fungus, the size of a human fist, seven or eight in a nest, the most prosperous in late autumn, especially delicious, we might as well pick up the fungus."

As soon as Lan Ling'er's words fell, Zhu Yu saw Lingyazi and Xie Yan of Tianlingdao carrying a few bamboo-backed baskets over, it seemed that Lan Ling'er and Lingyazi had already planned to pick up fungi.

"If you don't practice martial arts well, you know how to play all day long, I'm worried that no one will want you in the future."

At this time, Lan Tian also walked to the door and said with a smile.

"Why doesn't anyone want it? If this is the case, Brother Zhu Yu will not agree. Lan Ling'er said.

"What do you all say? Let Miss Xie Yan laugh, let's go. ”

Lingyazi said as he pulled Xie Yan out the door.

The four of them got out of the front door, turned a corner, and under the leadership of Xie Yan, they walked deep into the back mountain.

Although it was afternoon, but as winter approached, Zhongnan Mountain began to feel cold, especially Xie Yan, who had already changed into winter clothes, Zhu Yu, Lan Ling'er, Lingyazi and Lan Tian also put on thick coats.

"Zhongnan Mountain is cold quickly, and if you encounter a cloudy day with a north wind blowing for a long time, it will snow." Xie Yan said as he walked.

"That's right, yesterday Master Kongkong said that the four people sent by Ge Dan to raise the gobs will definitely not go far, they must be observing us, and when the time comes, they will follow us to find the Great Netherworld Sutra, so let's not go far." Zhu Yu reminded.

"Not far away, in the back mountain, in this basket, where the trees are dense, there will be red fungus, usually, except for the disciples we sent to pick it up, outsiders can't come here, and they will soon pick up the basket." Xie Yan said.

Sure enough, after the five of them walked into the forest for a while, Lan Ling'er shouted: "I picked up the fungus!" ”

Several people looked over enviously, and sure enough, they saw that at Lan Ling'er's feet, a few wisps of withered grass were covered with a few fist-sized red mushrooms, and the red mushroom caps were exposed from the grass, and if they didn't look carefully, they might be ignored.

Xie Yan carefully plucked the fungus, used the knife she carried with her to cut off the soil on the mycium, and carefully put it into the bamboo basket that Lan Ling'er was carrying.

When Zhu Yu was a child in the Lion Mountain Zhengxu Zen Temple, he often went with the monks in the temple to pick up mushrooms, and then in Tianlong Mountain, he often went up the mountain with Lan Tian, Lan Ling'er and Zhao Li, Luo Lin went up the mountain to pick up mushrooms, Lingyazi was in Qingcheng Mountain, and it was indispensable to go to the dense forest to pick up mushrooms, so the four of them knew the characteristics of the fungi, and it was difficult for the fungi in the grass under the forest to escape the eyes of the four people.

Sure enough, after Lan Ling'er picked up the first nest of fungi, several people found the fungi in a row, and after a while, everyone picked up their back baskets.

"It seems that the fungi of Zhongnan Mountain are very welcome to you, and you will be filled with backpacks in a short time."

Seeing that several people had filled the back basket with mushrooms, Xie Yan smiled.

"Sister Xie Yan, you have picked up more than each of us, you see, your fungus can't be loaded." Blue Sky said.

"Okay, let's go back, this mushroom is fresh, and the soup is very fresh."

During dinner, the umami of the mushroom soup made everyone praise endlessly, and Master Kongkong even said to Zhang Lingtian: "Tomorrow, I will also pick up some, dry it and take it back to Shaolin to enjoy it slowly." ”

"Every year, I will let my disciples dry some red mushrooms, and the master will come whenever he comes." Zhang Lingtian said with a smile.

During the meal, everyone gathers together to exchange martial arts experiences, tell stories, and even joke, feeling that time flies very quickly.

"In the past few days, I have exchanged with Master Lu Bucai about Shaolin Rulai Hercules Palm and Kongtong Gongfa Yixing Fist, and the luck methods of the two exercises are similar, maybe many years ago, these two exercises are really one." Said the Master of the Sky.

"The world's martial arts learn Shaolin, but a kind of exercise, after many years, will slowly evolve, not only the moves will change, some even palm into fist, fist into fingers, but all changes do not leave its sect, just like Buddhism, although there are eight major sects, but there is only one source." Xuyun Shitai said.

"Could it be that Emei Yuntong fingering, it may have been palm before?" Ling Shanzi asked.

"As far as I know, although Yuntong fingering does not come from the palm technique, it is derived from the sword move, in fact, the finger becomes a sword, and the qi is transported to the tip of the sword, which is infinitely powerful."
