This time, there was no more hidden weapon, Wu Shijiu opened the package, there was a letter and a book inside, he opened the letter and read it.

"Fu Nian Mountain wild dwelling in Haodi, grew up in Hannan, adult children to learn the Confucian forest, in the prime of life and travel to the cave, sex with the obscene, the heart is like ashes, do not know the shallow depth of benevolence and righteousness, and know the way to hide. Defeated lotus as a suit, take off the fall for the crown, the body has green hair, no grass shoes, the way of Mu Xixuan, no intention to recite the chapter of wind music, "Nanhua", "morality" frequently watched, Huangge Yutang desperate thoughts, a few lines of purple edicts, in vain to the color of the phoenix, a piece of leisure, has been retained by the white clouds. ”

Wu Shijiu's ancient literature cultivation was not good, and he only read it and seemed to understand it, but when he saw Shuangxi thoughtfully, he asked her, "Do you understand?"

Shuangxi said: "This predecessor has no intention of coveting the desires of the world, looking down on the world, performing glory, and concentrating on cultivation, just like the white clouds and wild cranes, and his good life is enviable." ”

Wu Shijiu said: "I see. Then he read: "All I have learned in my life is gathered here, and if future generations have the opportunity to avoid the innate twelve styles, they will be the people in Mr. Baiyun's door." I have been worshiped three times, compared with the opportunity, reverted to a copy of the Ru Xuan Sutra, hoping that you will learn this scripture, embrace the simple world, wash the heart and things, and raise the spirit of Taisu Haoran, should be a small star in the upper realm, cherish the long-term strategy of Jinglun, and do not confuse the prince; ”

At the check-in place, the words "Mr. Baiyun" are written.

Shuangxi said: "It turns out that those stone-handed and stone-foot moves, called the Innate Twelve Styles, were created by this senior Mr. Bai Yun. ”

Wu Shijiu put away the letter, looked at the book again, and saw that there were four words written on it in seal script. He didn't know how to write seals, so he picked up the book and asked Shuangxixi: "What is written on this?"

"Hold the Xuan Heart Sutra...... Ah, this is the Sutra of Embracing Xuanxin!" Shuangxi looked at the book with a surprised expression on her face.

"What is the Xuan Heart Sutra?

"Master said that this is a martial arts book, but what is written in it is just legends, and no one has ever seen it. ”

Wu Shijiu opened the book and saw that the first few pages were densely packed with small letters, and after a few more pages, there were some maps. At first, the drawings were all some gossip, Tai Chi and other graphics, with detailed annotations, and then turned back, all kinds of villains began to appear in the map, some boxing, some cross-knee exercises, and the human body meridian acupuncture point diagram. It seems to be an introductory mental method, designed for the cultivation of internal forces.

Later on, some strange animals began to appear in the book, with notes written next to them. Wu Shijiu slowly flipped through it, and suddenly his heart moved, and he saw a one-legged big bird painted on the page, which looked the same as the two Bifang firebirds he met in Killing Niuling, and there was a line of small characters next to it: "Male and female, containing fire sacs, is the most masculine and rigid thing in the world, and at the same time, with qi to resist it, it can become a red flame, with blood to resist it, and it can wear stones." "After that, there are some methods of luck, which are different from the methods taught by Jin Wenji.

After turning a few pages, a nine-headed snake appeared on the page, Wu Shijiu couldn't help but let out an "ah", and Shuangxi asked, "What do you see?"

"This book mentions the python we met, you see, it says that its snake gall is a healing holy relic, it has the effect of reviving the dead, if you practice according to the above method, you can increase your strength...... Just right for you. Wu Shijiu said, handing the book to Shuangxixi, but seeing her hesitant face, she refused to take it.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to see it?"

"You...... Such a precious martial arts cheat, you just gave it to me?"

"What about the secret book of martial arts, can you be invincible in the world if you learn it? But what if you are invincible in the world? Will people be happy for the rest of their lives?" Wu Shijiu said as he stuffed the book into Shuangxixi's hand and said: "There is your method of healing on it, I don't have a good foundation in ancient literature, I can't understand it, I have to ask you anyway." As he spoke, he turned around and bowed to Mr. Bai Yun, reset the stone bed, found some broken stones and dead vine branches, laid the bones flat, and buried them carefully.

Shuangxi looked at his busy back and was so stunned that he forgot to look through the book.

After a period of time, the two repeatedly studied the mystery of the book in the cave, and when they encountered something incomprehensible, Wu Shijiu asked Shuangxixi for advice, and the two confirmed each other to figure out the deep meaning, and unconsciously more than half a month. Shuangxixi followed the healing method in the book, and the injury quickly improved, and later not only was it completely unhindered, but his skills also increased a lot.

Wu Shijiu connected the innate twelve styles demonstrated by the stone hands and stone feet and continued to deduce, only to feel that this set of boxing techniques turned around and changed, seemingly twelve styles, but can evolve into twenty-four, thirty-six, and forty-eight styles according to actual needs...... And often attack the other party from the most unexpected place. Later, when I became more proficient, I felt more and more mysterious, and when I practiced the last pose, my palms involuntarily slapped out, and two flames erupted, illuminating the cave transparently. If you have a hidden weapon in your hand, this critical attack is really the most powerful killing move.

It took more than a month for the two of them to read all the illustrations and annotations in the book, and for Wu Shijiu, there was still too much content to digest.

When I turned to the last page, I saw a line of small characters in the lower right corner: "In the eighth year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Kingdom, the Dongying monk Yiran brought his disciples Chengsuan, Zuo Yi, Jia Yinren and others to visit Xuanzhong Temple. ”

Wu Shijiu suddenly remembered something, and said: "I remember that the old man Qiaman once told me that at that time, there was a Dongying warrior who came to Middle-earth to seal martial arts and defeated many masters, could it be this Jiayin Tetsuichi?"

Shuangxixi shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of this. ”

Wu Shijiu said: "It is said that all the masters of the rivers and lakes were defeated, and later everyone invited a person named Liu Zizai to come out of the mountain, which saved the face of the Central Plains martial arts." ”

Shuangxi said: "Do you mean that the old man Liu is at ease? I have heard this person say from the master." But didn't that man live in the land of Bashu for a long time?"

The two then looked down and saw that it was written in the book: "Taizong hated it and sent people to ask several times. However, I don't know the prince's intentions are increasing, and I obey Huang Lao, and I have no heart to win or lose. Only the disciples are free to go and defeated. ”

Wu Shijiu suddenly said: "It turns out that the old man Liu Zizai is a disciple of Mr. Baiyun, and the emperor Zhao Guangyi at that time ......."

Shuangxi hurriedly said: "If you want to talk about Emperor Taizong." ”

Wu Shijiu was stunned: "What?"

Shuangxi said: "In the future, whether you walk the rivers and lakes or interact with people, you must not be so unevasive, and you must not call the emperor by his name." ”

Wu Shijiu said: "Ah, yes, I forgot that this is in the world of the ancients more than nine hundred years ago...... It was Emperor Taizong at that time who came to invite Mr. Bai Yun out of the mountain, but Mr. Bai Yun was indifferent to fame and fortune, so he asked his disciple Liu Zizai to go to Xuanzhong Temple to defeat Jia Yin Tetsuichi. ”

Shuangxi said with a smile: "Mr. Bai Yun's letter said that if the descendants get the opportunity and avoid the innate twelve forms, they will be the people of his old man's family. Aren't you his closed disciple now?"

Wu Shijiu smiled embarrassedly: "Obviously, we ...... together"

Seeing that Shuangxixi's face was red, he hurriedly said: "Besides, I am a courier, how can I be qualified to be an apprentice to this big coffee......"

Shuangxi said: "I found that you often say some inexplicable crazy things, and I can't understand it, where did you hear it?"

Wu Shijiu said: "This is what our world says. ”

"Which world do you have?

"Oh yes, you still don't know where I came from?"

"I don't know, it's just that Master always said that he would ask you to do her an important favor, so, so ......"

"So you've come to arrest me several times, right?"

Wu Shijiu immediately talked about how he became a psychic messenger inexplicably, how he dreamed of learning art, and how he fell into this world from beginning to end. Shuangxi opened her mouth and couldn't close it for a long time when she heard it: "So...... Are you from the world after nine hundred and ninety-nine?" Wu Shijiu nodded and smiled: "Can't you believe it?" I can't believe it either, it always feels like a dream. ”

Shuangxi opened the Xuanxin Sutra, flipped to the drawing part, pointed to one of the oval arches and said, "Is this the spiritual gate you said?"

Because this part of the content is all strange pictures, Wu Shijiu didn't look at it carefully at first, and then he realized that Mr. Bai Yun had already drawn the appearance of the spiritual gate. At the bottom of the picture book, there is another line of small print: "It is opened once every 999 years, and the time is short." The way of heaven has the virtue of a good life, and those who close the door of the soul will save the people from fire and water, or have nine spirits in the world. ”

Wu Shijiu flipped through the book and saw that only the spiritual power cultivation method of the five elements was written in the back, not the power of the nine spirits. I remembered that before I came to this world, I once said that after defeating the Dongying samurai, the old man Liu Zizai had expanded the five spiritual power cultivation methods to nine, and only then did he have the nine spiritual recipes that were widely circulated in later generations, presumably Mr. Bai Yun was no longer alive at that time.

understood this meaning, and sighed in my heart.

This night, the two of them once again confirmed the inner strength, extinguished the torches, and were about to rest, but they heard a rustling sound on the sand outside the cave, as if someone was walking towards this side. Shuangxi put her index finger to her lips to signal Wu Shijiu to silence her voice, and listened to a man's voice from far and near: "Xixi has been gone for so long, and I haven't caught that psychic messenger, and I've searched all around, where did I go?"

Another said: "You just think only about that psychic messenger, thinking about your great cause, and the safety of others has nothing to do with you?"

Listening to this person's voice, it was Mrs. Shili.

Wu Shijiu secretly glanced at Shuangxixi, but saw that her body couldn't stop shaking, and secretly thought, I wonder if she would suddenly appear at this time and hand herself over to Mrs. Shili?

Unexpectedly, Shuangxi covered his mouth and nose with his backhand, for fear that the master would notice even the slightest gasp, and motioned him to retreat to the depths of the cave. Wu Shijiu only felt a soft little hand caressing his face, and a faint fragrance hit, and his heart went up and down, and he retreated again and again, hiding deeper and deeper.

Sure enough, the two men found the entrance to the cave and walked straight over. The man said, "Of course I'm worried about Xixi's safety, but it's better if she can catch that psychic messenger." I have a lot of questions in my mind, and I want to solve them. ”

Mrs. Shili said: "Brother Jiu, I am satisfied to meet you again, I don't care about the opinions of the world, nor do I care about the poor and low, as long as we are together." This time, let's find a secluded place to go to the mountains and rivers and live a leisurely life, okay?"

The man said, "Ado, I know that you have suffered a lot for me, and I owe you a lot. If you believe in me, you will be made to suffer. Now is not the time to send love to the landscape, I hope you will understand me and support me. I promise that when I complete the great cause of restoring the country, we will go to live that free life. ”

While talking, the two men walked to the entrance of the cave, but did not come in, but sat side by side to rest. Through the moonlight outside the cave, Wu Shijiu stared at it, and saw Mrs. Shili leaning her head on the man's shoulder, sighed faintly, and sang softly: "Silk and salary, three stars are in the sky." Tonight, what night, see this beloved. Zixi, son, what is such a beloved?"

Although it is not a soul sound, the song is gentle and soft, fluttering Nana, which makes people listen to the ups and downs of the heart, as if complaining of the pain of lovesickness, and as if snuggling in the arms of a lover, only looking forward to eternal life and eternity.

After a while, the singing was quiet, and gradually disappeared, and Mrs. Shili said: "Brother Jiu, don't blame me, I just haven't had any news of the evening recently, and I am always suspicious in my heart." She's still young, she's new to the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid she's ......"

The man said: "How can I blame you, I, like you, am also worried about the sunset." Ado, do you want to tell her the truth after you find her?"

Mrs. Shili pondered for a while before saying, "Let's go a few more days, you and I have just met again after a long absence, she is still a little strange to you, let her get used to it for a while." ”

The man said "um", took Mrs. Shili's hand, and stopped talking.

Wu Shijiu felt that Shuangxixi beside him seemed to tremble, and he didn't know which sentence he was touched, and he felt a feeling. I couldn't see her appearance clearly in the dark, but I only heard Mrs. Shili sing softly again, and it was still the "pretense" in the "Book of Songs".

At this time, in the distance above the direction of Xingzhou City, a bright light crossed by. The man said: "Look, I think there is any news from the old military division, maybe it has something to do with Xixi, let's go quickly." ”

As he spoke, he took Mrs. Shili's hand and left side by side.

As soon as they left, Wu Shijiu was about to get up, but was dragged to the ground by Shuangxixi. In the darkness, only the sound of the wind was heard, and it seemed that an extremely small metal object hit the mountain wall, and "ding" fell to the ground.

The man outside the cave said, "Let's go, you are careful everywhere, where is the person from this desolate desert?"

Then there was the sound of footsteps, and the two gradually went away.

After waiting for half an hour, Wu Shijiu didn't dare to come out, until Shuangxixi whispered in his ear: "It's okay, the master is gone, ......" then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The two carefully bypassed the centrifugal needle that fell in the hole, and when they came to the entrance of the cave, they saw two lines of shallow footprints on the sand extending in the direction of Xingzhou City.

"You...... Why don't you hand me over to your master?"

Wu Shijiu looked at Shuangxixi, and saw her looking at the two lines of footprints in a daze, and said for a long time: "I don't know, I always feel that the master has changed after meeting that man, as if there are many things to avoid me, I used to do whatever she asked me to do, and I never dared to disobey, but now, I ...... I don't know what's going on......"

"Who is that man, and why is he looking for me all the time?"

Shuangxixi shook her head and said, "I don't know, I don't know a lot of things." ”

As he spoke, he looked up at the full moon in the sky, and muttered: "The moon in the western frontier is so big, so round, and so bright, but why can't it shine through people's minds." ”
