Master Zhiyong once said to Huaishan, Wuya and Xilei.

Becoming a monk is just a way to escape from the world of flowers. Everything is empty, and everyone in the world has too much concern and reluctance, but it is necessary to distinguish the gains and losses. The so-called escape into the empty door is just a concept. To be able to afford it, to put it down, and to dare to bear it is great wisdom.

When he said these words, Huaishan and Wuya, especially Xilei, didn't know that twenty years had passed since that incident.

And now, Xiwen is twenty years old, and Xilei is sixteen years old.

Xilei has been in Shaolin Temple for sixteen years, but Master Zhiyong still won't let her out of Shaolin Mountain. All this is because, like other male disciples, if she wants to leave the Shaolin Temple, she must pass through the Eighteen Bronze Array.

She was already ready, but Master Zhiyong always said that it was not time yet.

Xilei's sister Xiwen is four years older than her. Every once in a while, Xiwen will always come to see this sister, and the two sisters are like a special existence in the Shaolin Temple.

For thousands of years, Shaolin Temple, that is where monks stay. And the so-called monks, of course, are all men.

If a woman becomes a monk, the place she goes to is called a nunnery.

But Master Zhiyong broke this rule. Sixteen years ago, when Master Zhiyong returned to Shaomuro Mountain with the dying man who was pregnant with Rokko and a four-year-old girl, he already knew that he would keep a lifelong promise.

That person's name was Wang Jia, and he was the daughter of Wang Linmu, the leader of the beggar gang at that time. Everyone knows that the Beggar Gang is the first gang in the world headed by the Wang family, but they only learned later that the person who caused a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes at that time, and the people in the rivers and lakes called the evil gods, were also members of the Wang family.

I'm afraid that only Master Zhiyong knows about it, Wang Jia gave birth to a little girl when he was dying, and this girl is Xilei.

The monks are compassionate, but after all, they are holy places in Buddhism. Although the brothers did not know, no one deliberately asked the abbot for an explanation. But except for Master Zhide, everyone unanimously suggested finding a good family to house these two girls. Master Zhiyong defied public opinion and insisted on his own adoption despite all kinds of gossip. That's it, sixteen years in a flash.

Xiwen has a very straightforward personality when she grows up, and the young Master Zhide has always taught her all kinds of martial arts and the principles of how to behave in the world.

She is a martial arts prodigy, and by the age of seventeen, she could already break through the eighteen bronze formations. Later, he went out of Shaolin Temple. She told Master Zhiyong that she was going to find her own life. Master Zhiyong did not stop him.

Today happened to be Xilei's sixteenth birthday, and Master Zhiyong gave Xilei a plum blossom hairpin. He said, "It's a relic left by your mother."

In a few days, the Shaolin Temple will hold a martial arts conference, and Xilei also wants to prove herself at the martial arts conference. The most important thing at the moment is that she wants to pass the eighteen bronze people as a gift for her sixteenth birthday.

So she took advantage of the fact that the master and the brothers didn't care, put the hairpin on her head, took a deep breath, and smiled confidently in the mirror.

Eighteen bronze people array is one of the famous formations of Shaolin Temple, in order to prevent the Shaolin disciples who have not achieved kung fu from going down the mountain to be defeated, insulting the reputation of Shaolin, so set up eighteen bronze people in front of the Shaolin Temple, Shaolin disciples can repel the bronze people that means that their kung fu is superb and can go down the mountain to practice.

In addition to the most basic Shaolin authentic boxing techniques, Xilei's specialty is the seventy-two small grappling masters.

But what Xilei doesn't understand is that Master Zhiyong has been preventing her from practicing swords with Xiwen. Master Zhiyong said that it is good for girls to learn some boxing skills to defend themselves, and they can also become martial arts masters by practicing various boxing techniques to a certain extent.

What Master Zhiyong didn't know was that she and her sister Xiwen had been secretly going to Master Zhide to learn swordsmanship, and over the years, they had become small.

Thinking of this, Xilei looked very happy. But she knew that she couldn't use weapons to break into the Eighteen Bronze Man Formation, she rubbed her hands, moved her shoulders, took a deep breath, her expression changed from happy at the beginning to serious, and she resolutely stood in front of the Eighteen Bronze People.

Time with a stick of incense.

Come and experience the pain that caterpillars must go through when they break out of their cocoons and become butterflies.

to prove that you are stubborn and persistent, grow and be strong.

This is the first step into the rivers and lakes.

You can only win, you can't lose.

Although he and his sister are considered outliers of Shaolin, although they have been living in the back of Shaolin Mountain, although they have never stepped into the Daxiong Treasure Palace. But she knew that she had always been a Shaolin disciple.

Master Zhiyong, Master Zhide, and her sister, as well as all the Shaolin disciples, as well as the gossip on the rivers and lakes over the years, are all looking at her.

Fall, get up again.

The corners of the mouth bleed, dry with a sleeve.

She can't mess around, let alone rush.

Her little grappling hand didn't seem to work against them, because her internal strength was inferior to theirs, so she couldn't hold it at all.

She can only use boxing skills to fight them Zhou Xuan, but this does not seem to pose a mortal threat to them, because their bodies are like their names, copper heads and iron bones, indestructible.

There are weaknesses, there must be weaknesses. She had to find that weakness and break it in one fell swoop.

At this time, it would be nice to have a sword, or anything like a sword. She thought.

He didn't know that not far away, a man said the same, "At this time, if only she had a sword, or something like a sword." ”

Then she heard, "Little girl, catch!"

She didn't see what it was, but subconsciously followed the direction of the sound.

It's a wooden sword.

She looked up and saw a group of people standing not too far away from her. Led by Master Zhide and his sister Xiwen, as well as two strange young men.

The one who threw the wooden sword was one of the two men. They must not be a few years older than themselves, because they are all too green compared to Master Zhide.

At first glance, one of them had messy hair, uninhibited, lazy eyes, and an unbeaten expression.

The other one is a little more sedate and heroic, but it looks a little conceited, and it is even worse than the first.

But when they laughed, Xilei felt very kind, like warm sunshine.

This is Xilei's first impression of Wuya and Huaishan.

"Xilei, come on, you can do it!" she heard her sister Xiwen's voice.

There is still a quarter of the time to burn incense.

Momentum, sword dance.

The striking methods of the sword include splitting, stabbing, pointing, teasing, collapsing, intercepting, wiping, piercing, picking, lifting, twisting, sweeping, etc.

And Xi Lei is dancing with a wooden sword at the moment, which is based on the essence of the word "twisting", integrating the moves of the seventy-two small grapplers, using sword skills as grappling skills, and killing them with sword capture.

The tide was turned.

Master Zhide smiled, "You see, don't look at Xi Lei is only sixteen years old, these moves should be considered to be created by her, and it is really not easy to integrate grappling hands with swordsmanship." Xiwen, she has surpassed you. ”

Xiwen nodded, smiling without saying a word.

At this time, a young man beside Master Zhide smiled and said, "It turns out that Sister Wen's sister is not only as beautiful as Sister Wen, but also more powerful than Sister Wen, which is really unapproachable." ”

Another young man smiled: "I hope that her character is not like her swordsmanship, which makes people unable to break free, and the closer she gets, the more she hurts." ”

The crowd laughed.

Master Zhide said: "Xilei's swordsmanship is good at flexibility, boundless swordsmanship is good at speed, and Huaishan's swordsmanship is good at formlessness. Although the three of you are young, you are superb in swordsmanship, and in time, you will definitely achieve great things. ”

By the time the incense burned out, Xi Lei was already covered in bruises, but she finally, with the strength of one person, defeated the eighteen bronze men.

She held the wooden sword and shouted happily, "Master Zhide, sister...... Master Zhide, sister...... I won! I won!"

Then she sprang towards them, but before she had run a few steps, she fainted. And Wuya and Huaishan jumped up almost at the same time, and supported her with light deeds to Xilei's side.

The two looked at Xi Lei, who had fainted, looked at each other again, opened their mouths and couldn't help laughing.

Miss Yu'er saw Huaishan's happy appearance and was happy for him. She stood in the crowd, subconsciously touched the wound on her face, shook her head with a wry smile, and turned to leave.

When Xiwen saw Yu'er, she stepped forward and said, "Miss Yu'er, please stay." ”

Yu'er turned to look at Xiwen and said softly: "Sister Xiwen, I promised you that I won't tell Xilei, you can rest assured." ”

Xiwen smiled: "Sister Yu'er's words, I will definitely believe it." It's just that I have a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

Yu'er said, "Sister Xiwen, please speak." ”

Xiwen said: "I see that Sister Yu'er and Huaishan are brothers. Today, Huaishan and Wuya seem to care more about Xilei, please don't take it to heart, after all, Xilei is still young. ”

Yu'er smiled: "Sister is serious, I'm not such a careful person." ”

Xiwen said: "Then Sister Yu'er, do you really plan to wear this human skin mask to face us all the time?"

On the other side, above the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Dai Lin, the Hundred Herbs Divine Doctor, knelt in front of Master Zhiyong, and Master Zhiyong just let out a long sigh.
