Chapter 6: The Beginning
In the early morning of the next day, Shangguan Yi still got up early to finish practicing his internal skills and meditated.
When the first three layers of the "Dao Law" are for a Shuntian, the cultivation is quite easy, but the cultivation is slow, and he must race against the clock and quickly break through the first three layers.
can make a Buddhist teenager like Shangguan Yi rush to break through, naturally something is wrong, and it is fatal. Before Shangguan Yi introduced the "Dao Law", he suspected that his internal force would cause air flow when he was cultivating, but it was very weak, so weak that it was almost impossible to check, and Shangguan Yi thought it was an illusion. But after getting started, when he was cultivating today, Shangguan Yi didn't doubt it, because it had become a fact.
This situation is a bit dazzling in the eyes of people who know the goods, and it will even bring disaster to themselves.
After all, although the requirements for internal strength cultivation are strange, but like this kind of exercise, which only has the best effect on cultivation in the morning and is good enough to cause air flow, whether it is the secret stories of the rivers and lakes or the description of the internal strength of each school and faction in the martial arts miscellaneous talks, Shangguan Yi has not found a few similar ones. Moreover, there is no such thing as a practice that requires a practitioner to get up early in the morning and sit in a sunny place to practice.
Now on the first layer, this phenomenon is not too obvious, and if you don't get close to it, you can't even feel it, but what about the second and third layers? Can Shangguan Yi bear the consequences of being discovered by someone who has this kind of vision? The answer is obviously no, the pursuit of high-level martial arts by the people of the rivers and lakes is undoubtedly a little crazier than gold and silver treasures, as long as it leaks out, someone will come to touch their bottom the next day, and at most three days, the so-called martial arts seniors will come to the door for friendly exchanges.
The first must not be discovered, and the second must break through the first three layers as soon as possible. Shangguan Yi rubbed his temples, set a goal for himself, then stood up and stretched, ate a dozen red fruit pads to pad his stomach, took his small package, and set off!
Shangguan Yi, who was fishing all the way and was blind in the waves, just turned a few hills towards the east, and it was dark... However, he himself touched his round belly and lay on the branch of an ancient tree to show that he was not at a loss.
It's a pity that there is no seasoning, and the plants picked at hand are mashed and made to make do with it. Shangguan Yi recalled the rabbit he had just roasted, and he was both pity and satisfaction.
"Stop, rob!" Suddenly a loud roar sounded, so frightened that Shangguan Yi almost fell from the tree, and hurriedly stabilized his body, such a way of death must not be accepted! Then Shangguan Yi stabilized his mind, looked over, and vaguely saw a masked man with five big and three thick hands holding a knife in one hand and a torch in the other, talking to a weak scholar who was also holding a torch. It was a little far away, Shangguan Yi couldn't hear it clearly, except for the roar at the beginning that startled him, and he couldn't really hear a word for the rest.
Shangguan Yi directly ignored the scholar's combat effectiveness, compared his own strength with that of the masked man, and quietly went down the tree and touched it. There's no way, this thing is all close to the face, you have to see what the situation is, in this deep mountain and old forest, if there is a robber, either an organization is hiding from the rumors, or there is a problem with the robber.
It's a pity that Shangguan Yi's abacus had just been made, and he had reached a good position to eavesdrop, when he saw the man raising a knife to cut the scholar. This... , Shangguan Yi didn't hesitate, and decisively rushed over with light skills, and went up with a knife to slash at the man's neck. It's a pity that the masked man was in pain, and he didn't fall down, he quickly turned around, pointed his knife at Shangguan Yi, and shouted loudly: "Okay, you Wang Shusheng, you actually colluded with thieves to kill me, you all saw it, right? Come out for me and kill them for me!"
The corners of Shangguan Yi's mouth twitched, did he underestimate this man too much, and he wanted to kill me with a bite? It seems that I am thinking too much, this should be, a village tyrant, right? Five people, a little troublesome.
At this time, the weak scholar who had just dodged a knife stood in front of Shangguan Yi and said, "Thank you, little brother, it's just that you can't beat five people, you can go first." There was a sense of death in his tone, there was regret, but he didn't coax, and he didn't want to surrender or anything, and he was outstanding.
Shangguan Yi was stunned, pulled him behind him, and said, "Be careful yourself, I can do it." Then he rushed to the masked man, and went up with a punch, but it was just a false punch, deceived the man, and then dodged lightly, kicked on the man's lower body, directly disabling the man's combat effectiveness, and sprinkled a little powder on the man's face with his left hand, the man fell, and the sound of wailing stopped. Shangguan Yi picked up the knife that fell to the ground after the man let go, and put it on the man's neck. Shangguan Yi knew that the game was over and entered the spicy chicken time.
It's a pity, if you can guess it, it's still called fate?
Just when Shangguan Yi felt that the dust had settled and Wang Shusheng was also relieved, a black shadow rushed out from behind the four dogs, and Shangguan Yi raised it in his heart, this speed, it's bad, it's martial arts, it's a bit tricky.
Then, Shangguan Yi trembled at the corner of his eyes, and saw that the man knocked out four dog legs in a row, all of them were slashed with a hand knife, and the person fell directly, Shangguan Yi looked at his right hand, could it be a problem of technique?
At this moment, that person seemed to walk towards Shangguan Yi and wanted to knock Shangguan Yi unconscious.
Shangguan Yi hurriedly threw down the knife, and shouted as he retreated: "Big brother, your own people, don't do it!" At the same time, his hand was hidden in his sleeve, holding something.
"Ah Da, forget about this, it's not the same as the group on the ground. A cold voice rang out, stopping the shadow.
Shangguan Yi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the source of the voice, a boy dressed in white, about ten years old, walked out, Rao is a person like Shangguan Yi who doesn't care much about his appearance, and he has to praise his good looks. Maybe it's still small, it hasn't grown, and a small face is exquisite. Shangguan Yi glanced at it twice and stepped forward, arched his hand, and said, "Thank you for your help, I am grateful, I don't know if you are in a hurry late at night, but if you need help, please be polite." ”
Shangguan Yi said it tactfully, it seemed that he was thanking them, and even enthusiastically wanted to help and make friends or something. Actually, he was a little suspicious of the motives of these two people, they came too coincidentally.
Jinli's eyes moved slightly, knowing that he was suspicious, but he also replied pretending not to know: "No need, we can solve it." Just when he was just on the way, Ah Da heard that there was a fight here, and came to investigate, saying that there was a robber who robbed a weak scholar, and I saw that he was weak and asked him to help. Ah Da is a little simpler, if he scares you, I apologize to you on his behalf. ”
Ah Da's lips moved, but he still didn't speak, and the third rule of his education was that the master was not allowed to say half a word without letting him open his mouth when talking to others.
Shangguan Yi waved his hand and said continuously: "It's okay, it's okay, he is also loyal, and there is nothing wrong." Then he walked up to the weak scholar and asked, "How are you?
Wang Shusheng shook his head, sighed, and said, "It's not scared, it's just..."
Shangguan Yi subconsciously glanced at Jinli, the other party was also looking at him, and the two exchanged glances. Jin Li picked his chin and motioned for Shangguan Yi to ask.
Shangguan Yi smiled bitterly in his heart, this person was cunning, and he was obviously curious, so he wanted him to ask. This scholar ran to the mountains at night, carrying a torch to find something, and someone wanted to kill him, it was not easy to think about it. When the time comes, if it's a big trouble, he pats his ass and leaves, but he has a headache. However, Shangguan Yi is not the kind of person who does not save him when he sees death, otherwise he would not have decisively saved Wang Shusheng just now.
Shangguan Yi organized his language and asked, "This eldest brother doesn't know what's important about coming here so late?"
Wang Shusheng smiled bitterly and said, "You have the grace to save my life, and I don't know how to repay it, so how can I trouble you again?"
Shangguan Yi straightened his expression and said: "This is a mistake, you are a scholar, do you understand the will of heaven? Do you know what is the arrangement in the dark? When you and I meet, it is fate, and if you are in difficulty, I can just help you because of fate, once it is a coincidence, and twice it is the will of heaven! You must not go against the sky, brother. ”
When Wang Shusheng heard this, the embarrassment between his eyebrows became even more obvious, obviously moved by Shangguan Yi's words.
Shangguan Yi struck while the iron was hot, and didn't give Wang Shusheng a chance to think about it at all, "Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about it, don't you?" Before I went out this time, I was crazy taught by the old man to do a good deed every day and help those in need. When the old man was young, he was warm and warm, and he couldn't see people suffering, if I just left, my grandfather asked in detail, I must have to kneel in the ancestral hall, a kneel for a day, I tried once... , eh, brother, can you bear it?"
Shangguan Yi's words were subdued and frustrated, and his feelings were sincere, and the last question vividly expressed a child's fear of his grandfather, because Shangguan Yi squeezed out two tears and hung them in the corners of his eyes.
Wang Shusheng and Ah Da were stunned for a moment, and Jin Li pursed his lips, trying not to let himself laugh. He is so wise and close to demons, and he has seen so many people with sophistication, he sees through Shangguan Yi's lies at a glance and knows that he is making up stories. If you want to laugh, you can't laugh, he can't let the scholar find out the difference, the scholar certainly needs help, but he has his own pride and integrity, and he is a rare gentleman.
A gentleman should be deceived!
Although Wang Shusheng faintly felt that Shangguan Yi's statement was a bit ridiculous, but there was no wonder in the world, in case his grandfather really had such a temperament, and he had not repaid his kindness, and he would hurt others to kneel in the ancestral hall for a day, and it would be difficult to feel at ease.
With a long sigh, Wang Shusheng leaned against a tree and said, "Even if that's the case, I'll be cheeky once." My mother had a strange illness, and Lang Zhong said that there was no cure, so I asked me to come to Bailu late at night. The white deer is a spiritual species in the nearby mountains, and it is rumored that following it can find a miracle medicine that can cure all diseases, but it only goes out at night, so I made this decision. I didn't know that Wang Er actually followed me into the mountain, and wanted to kill me and forcibly occupy my younger sister, and I had to thank a few people for their help to escape from death. ”
Useless is a scholar, even though he thinks he is talented, but the bad things these days make him a little desperate, and he doesn't know what to do. His mother was sick, so he asked Lang Zhong to see it, but he only said that he couldn't save it, and asked him to find the Bailu elixir. My sister was favored by villains such as Wang Er again, if something happened to her this time, I'm afraid it wouldn't... Even if he is saved, this Wang Er can't be killed, his family colludes with the government, no matter what happens, he can't get out of it, and if he doesn't kill it, it's not over, Wang Er's small belly and chicken intestines must be grudgeful, and I'm afraid it will be even more sad in the future. Is there still a place for him in this world?
Shangguan Yi hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I'm afraid that the matter of the elixir is a little difficult to do," after a pause, he looked at Jinli, saw the latter nod slightly, and then said: "It's just that I still know a little bit about the art of Qihuang, I don't know if you can let me try it and see if I can save your mother?"
Jin Li took over the conversation and said, "Ah Da will also be a little, maybe he can help you." ”
Wang Shusheng smiled reluctantly and said, "Then, without further ado, let's get up and go back." Then he straightened up, and wanted to lead the way and lead them back, but there was no way, let the dead horse be a live horse doctor.
Shangguan Yi shook his head, he didn't mean to leave, but stared at Wang Shusheng seriously and said: "The handling of these people is always a big trouble, if I guess correctly, there will be trouble if I kill you or not, right?"
Wang Shusheng was silent, obviously acquiescing.
Jin Li took a step ahead of Shangguan Yi and said, "You shouldn't be able to stay in your village, right?" It's better to move away, if you have nowhere to go, you can go to me and help me." ”
Shangguan Yi narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything. He is now alone, he has no power, it is impossible for Wang Shusheng to live with him, I originally wanted to recommend him to the Great Guangming Temple, at least this kind of thing will not occur there, if the scholar has the ability, it is still okay to ask for a job.
Wang Shusheng's eyes lit up, darkened again, and arched his hand and said, "Gongzi Xie is kind, it's just an inconvenience at home, so let's just do it." ”
Jin Li bit his lip and didn't say anything, but hinted to Shangguan Yi with his eyes to persuade him.
Shangguan Yi rolled his eyes and didn't speak, but walked to a few dogs' legs and sprinkled the medicine powder on their faces, clapped his hands, and said, "Now they won't wake up for a while, wait for me to take my package, let's go to your house to have a look." Anyway, this son looks like a rich man, so it's a big deal to ask him to hire a famous doctor, and you will pay him back when you have money in the future. ”
Jin Li glared at Shangguan Yi and said, "That's okay, anyway, the coil I brought is enough." Ah Da went to get his luggage and prepared to leave. "He bit 'enough' a little harder, and he was sarcastically sarcastic that Shangguan Yi had no money.
Shangguan Yi shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything, knowing that he was complaining that he didn't help him persuade Wang Shusheng to go with him, so he went to get his small package by himself.
Then the three of them followed Wang Shusheng to the outside, Wang Shusheng led the way with a torch in front, Ah Da behind, and Shangguan Yi and Jinli walked side by side in the middle.
A few people chatted casually on the road, and the atmosphere was a little too dignified, because except for Ah Da, they all had their own concerns. Wang Shusheng was worried about the future, Jin Li was thinking about how to pull Wang Shusheng to his side, but Shangguan Yi was figuring out Jin Li's intention to win over Wang Shusheng.
From the very beginning, Shangguan Yi doubted this person's motives, he did not deny that this person had no ill will towards Wang Shusheng or him, and even had a tacit understanding with him. But Shangguan Yi did not let his guard down, and it was not until this person invited Wang Shusheng to move to his territory that Shangguan Yi knew his purpose. But I can't figure out why.
The three of them pondered all the way, but there was no result, and finally gave up unanimously, and chose to go straight to the bridge naturally, and take one step at a time.
