Chapter 45: The Twin Thorns of the Strange Gate

The success of the Anti-Japanese War in Zhongzhou should have been an exciting thing, but from here, Jiang Yichen saw Xuan Xiao hanging his head and tugging at his clothes.

There was a moment of silence, and then I heard Xuan Xiao continue.

"In Zhongzhou, after 23444 years, the people of Li have regained peace, but my master, my two senior brothers, have died a year before, and the culprit is me! It was my recklessness that killed the three of them!" Xuan Xiao's clenched fist began to tremble.

"In an encounter in the valley, we had won a great victory, and the devils threw away their armor and fled in a hurry, when I saw that the general was about to flee the battlefield, so I rode in pursuit. The two senior brothers had advised me not to chase after me, worried that there would be an ambush in the deep pursuit, but I was empty-eyed and chased after me, and the master and the two senior brothers naturally couldn't abandon me, so they brought some Wudang disciples to follow. Sure enough, after chasing out two or three miles, we were ambushed! Under the ambush on all sides, we could only fight the trapped beasts, and the net was broken with many devils and fish. ”

"With the assistance of the two senior brothers, I took the lead in taking the head of the enemy generals, I thought that the thieves would capture the king first, and the enemy generals would die, and those devils would be defeated by themselves, how could they know that their counterattack was even more violent. The two brothers had already blocked many darts for me, and then they used their bodies to stab me, because there were too many people in ambush, and they fell into the encirclement of more than a dozen people, and finally died under the knife because of their injuries and strength. The other Wudang disciples were even more difficult to support in this situation, and they soon fell down one by one. The master, on the other hand, fought for his life and fought a bloody way for me alone, and only when reinforcements came could he be rescued. However, the master was so badly injured and lost too much blood that he passed out after we were rescued and never woke up......"

The distance between the two was not far away, and Jiang Yichen could vaguely see a few crystal clear pearls slipping down from the angular face through the gap between the black hair hanging down in front of him.

"Peace has been restored to the world, and I have returned to Wudang. At the beginning, those uncles and uncles tried their best to compete for the position of the head of the house, and they had no time to care about my existence, and then the ambitious hypocrite, that is, the current head of Wudang, Yuan Shen, got what he wanted. Yuan Shen was convenient for the master to have a gap before, and several of his proud disciples, in a few years ago in the younger generation of the competition was picked out by me one by one, when the master was there, Yuan Shen had some scruples, the master is no longer there, he can wait for the opportunity to retaliate, the old things are brought up, and once again let all the eyes of Wudang focus on me. At that time, because I was ashamed of the death of my master and brother, I was willing to fall all the time, so I was arrested. ”

"They say that I am a mourning star, I am a black sheep, I am in Wudang for a day, Wudang will be ridiculed by the heroes of the world for a day, and one day Wudang will be ruined by my reputation and fall into disrepute. Do you know how heinous I was in their minds at that time, ready to destroy a decent and dangerous person......! It's ridiculous. ”

Speaking of this, Xuan Xiao raised his head again and laughed wildly, laughing so arrogantly, laughing so desolately, and not stopping for a long time.

Accompanied by Xuan Xiao's laughter, Jiang Yichen couldn't help but sigh with emotion, a person's fate is so miserable, in comparison, in addition to not being able to practice internal skills, he is much better than Xuan Xiao, what is there to complain about? If it has been 13 years since the Zhongzhou time has been 23444, it has been 13 years, which is the right time for him to stay on Xishan Island, 13 years, could it be that Xuan Xiao has been here for so long? But his clothes are indeed as neat as new, and he is not full of beards to cover his face, and he is still demonic. And with his age now passing and approaching the age of no confusion, why does he look so young?

"Could it be that because of this, you were imprisoned here by those uncles of yours?" After Xuan Xiao's laughter gradually stopped, Jiang Yichen couldn't help but ask.

"Heh, you also underestimate them, they want to lock me up here, just to remove me from the rivers and lakes, a few years of anti-Japanese war has also made me have a false name, if you want to remove me, you have to make the people in the rivers and lakes convinced, and you can't give birth to the slightest criticism. Xuan Xiao smiled a wicked smile.

Jiang Yichen looked at Xuan Xiao very calmly, waiting for his explanation.

"The most taboo among the famous and upright families is to collude with evil demons and practice the martial arts of other sects, the former is to turn their backs on the righteous path, and the latter is regarded as a traitor to the renunciation, and they have grasped these two points and trapped me in a place of no return. ”

"It's a long story, and I have to start with a memory. ”

"I don't stick to all kinds of moves, I will imitate other people's martial arts moves to create my own exercises, and the master also praised me as a martial arts wizard because of this. In order to get out of the haze of the master's departure, I have been indulging in the study of martial arts day by day, and then I also recalled the events of the past. ”

"In fact, the master was urgently recalled to the sect that year, because he heard that there were signs of violating the border in Beidi Warat and the East China Sea, so he rushed back to discuss the countermeasures with the people in the sect. At that time, it was not only my Wudang family that had the intention of resisting foreign aggression, Shaolin, Emei, Kunlun, but also the Daoyi League, Kyushu Alliance, the Four Seas Alliance and other emerging forces that had some fame. ”

"People with lofty ideals finally came together, and the righteous people with heads and faces in the rivers and lakes gathered in front of the peach fairy tree in Jiangning County, and made an oath to stabilize Zhongzhou, temporarily throw away the gap, stop fighting together, and resist foreign insults together!"

"At that time, I was fortunate to go to Jiangning with my master, and I met many heroes there. After taking an oath in front of the peach fairy tree, each sect and faction dispersed to prepare for the enemy, and the master was invited by the leaders of the two camps of Kyushu Jieyi and the Four Seas Alliance, Xiao Yutong and Yan Qingxia, to play against a hidden mountain cliff in the hidden forest of Peach Valley. As he spoke, Xuan Xiao turned his gaze to look at Jiang Yichen, indicating that he had seen the old man at that time.

Jiang Yichen was also surprised when he heard this, but it was not because Xuan Xiao mentioned the old man, but because the hidden cliff in the secluded forest of Peach Valley he mentioned should have been where he went by mistake.

"It's not so much a game, it's more about martial arts competition, and martial arts creation! It was really an eye-opener for me at that time. ”

Xiao Yutong and Yan Qing respectively demonstrated three kinds of weapons in the mastery, meaning engraved in the chess pieces, Xiao Yutong created a sword, axe, stick three kinds of martial arts secrets, Yan Qing created a dagger, Emei stab, knife three kinds of martial arts secrets, these six martial arts are not so unfathomable, but easy to learn, and refreshing, suddenly enlightened, will make people feel that these weapons can also be used like that. These martial arts secrets were contributed and awarded to many martial arts people at that time to learn, and they played a great role in the subsequent border war, which can be described as the world's martial arts. ”

"By the way, the water-clearing sword technique you made just now was taught to you by the person who practiced it back then, or did you learn it from that hidden stone cliff?" Xuan Xiao suddenly became a little curious.

"By chance, I learned it from a hidden stone cliff. Jiang Yichen replied.

"That peach valley secluded forest can contain the opportunity of Qiankun gossip, if no one leads the way, do not understand the reason, most of them will be trapped in it, little brother, you can break out safely, not to mention, you can also go to the hidden stone cliff to get the secret of martial arts, it is really auspicious. Xuan Xiao heard that Jiang Yichen actually went to the stone cliff to learn swordsmanship, and was full of emotion, this little brother in front of him was really a lucky star, I am afraid that there are nobles to help him all the way to the rivers and lakes, otherwise how could he be so simple and ignorant.

Without waiting for Jiang Yichen to explain, Xuan Xiao shook his head with a smile, returned to the topic and continued.

"Among the martial arts created by the two heroes, the most amazing skill is the Emei Thorn Martial Arts created by Yan Qing, not only the Spirit Wind Thorn Method, but the most important thing is that he boldly implanted the Qimen Dunjia technique into the Emei Thorn, which completely subverted the world's use of Emei Double Thorn. ”

"The original double thorns are mainly used by women because of their lightness and agility, and the Emei faction has carried them forward, the clouds are moving for neon clothes, and the thorns are dancing in the palms. After integrating into the eight formations in Qimen Dunjia, when facing the enemy, various instantaneous formations are used to restrict the opponent's actions, and the smart circle, trickery traps, and unpredictable are not only troubled and chaotic by the enemy, but also make it a nightmare scene of crisis every step of the way. ”

"The improved Emei double thorns, close to attack, far can be defended, the impact on me is not small, but there was not much time to study at that time, and finally after the master left, I found a way out to divert my attention, no longer confused, pondering this Qimen Dunjia technique, and integrating it into the swordsmanship......"
