Shen Chaixing and Linglonger were invited by Ouyang Zongde to the backyard "Sword House" for tea. Only Duanmu, Shi Wuxing and Ouyang's granddaughter Ouyang Qianqian were accompanied by him.

After the fragrant tea was served, there were still some desserts, and Shen Chaixing and Linglong'er ate a few pieces honestly and unceremoniously to suppress the hunger. Duanmu saw that he was busy arranging wine and food.

Seeing that there were no outsiders around him, Ouyang asked about Shen Chaixing's life experience, facing the Momen Protector, and being a friend of his grandfather, Shen Chaixing's heart was full of admiration, and he didn't dare to hide it, so he told Ouyang about his life experience that he had never mentioned to the world, Ouyang nodded and said: "Your appearance is very similar to your grandfather, and at the same time, I recognize the sword in your hand, so I am not surprised by your life experience, in addition, although I don't have much contact with your father Shen Heng, I also have several faces." ”

The others were also impressed when they heard Shen Chaixing's life experience, but only Linglong'er was surprised, but she was silent. Shen Chaixing was afraid that Linglong would be too careful, so he hurriedly squeezed out an apologetic smile at her.

Shen Chaixing didn't want to mention more about his life experience, so he diverted the topic and asked about the origin of these swords and the sword moves Ouyang used just now.

When it came to the matter of swords, Ouyang suddenly opened the conversation, it turned out that the three swords jointly created by Ou Yezi and the cadres had been tossed and turned for more than a thousand years, and finally disappeared. After Zhang Shicheng occupied the south of the Yangtze River, he entered the ancient sword pool one day, and felt that the sword qi in the pool was pressing, and there was purple gas rushing into the sky at night, so he asked his subordinates, and the bachelor Chen Ji replied: "If the psychic sword of Tai'a and Longyuan does not meet a good master, it will return to its casting place with various opportunities, as if a person returns to his hometown." Therefore, there must be a divine sword under this pool. It's just that the sword is psychic, and if it encounters a non-human, it will hinder its master. ”

Zhang Shicheng drained the pond water according to his words, and a giant python appeared inside, and three swords were found under the giant python, which were Tai'a, Longyuan and Gongbu. Zhang Shicheng properly adopted the python and used it for other purposes. Those three swords were also collected by him, and they were easily hidden from people.

Hearing this, Shen Chaixing thought to himself: "Presumably, we met the python spirit in the treasure of King Wu, even if this python is gone." He turned around and asked, "How did the Gongbu sword get into your hands later?"

Ouyang smiled: "There is another story here, which has always been hidden in my heart, and I have never mentioned it to others, even Duanmu and my granddaughter Qianqian are not very clear." ”

"When I was a teenager, I worshiped under the Song Daodao sect of the senior swordsmanship master known as 'Jian Yin', the master only had two apprentices in his life, and there was a senior brother above me. Ten years after the sword was completed, my senior brother walked out of the division before me, broke through the rivers and lakes, and established a great reputation. Soon after, I also joined the rivers and lakes and befriended Momen. A few years later, when I returned to Master's retreat to visit Master, Master calculated that his limit was approaching and that he had no descendants, so he handed me a copy of his ancestral sword book and told me the origin of this sword book. ”

"During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Zen patriarch Bodhidharma left Shaolin after nine years of facing the wall, came to Yumen Thousand Sages Temple, and passed away after three years. Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty buried him in Bears Ears Mountain. Two years later, Song Yun, an envoy of the Eastern Jin Dynasty who had been on a long-term mission to the Western Regions, returned from the west to the east. Because he was away all the year round, Song Yun did not know about domestic affairs, and when he passed through the Green Mountains, he saw a monk in white clothes fluttering, barefoot, holding a tin staff in one hand, and a monk's shoe in the other, hurriedly walking west. Song Yun recognized that it was the Patriarch Bodhidharma, so he stepped forward to greet him and asked the master where he was going? Bodhidharma replied, I will go to the western sky. ”

"After Song Yun returned to the court, he reported the encounter with Bodhidharma to Emperor Xiaojing. The emperor was furious and said that Bodhidharma had been dead for two years, how could you possibly see him! Later, under the persuasion of the ministers, he opened the Bodhidharma coffin to check, and there was nothing else in it, only a monk's shoe. Only then did I know that Song Yun did not lie and deceive the king. ”

"This is the well-known 'only returning to the west', but Song Yun hid one thing at that time. At that time, when Bodhidharma met Song Yun, he also gave Song Yun a thing and instructed him to bring it back to Middle-earth, which was a sword book, only a sword book with seven swordsmanship. And explain that although this sword spectrum was realized by Bodhidharma on the way back to the west, its source was still obtained in the nine years of Shaolin facing the wall and the three years of enlightenment in the Thousand Holy Temple, and he should return to Middle-earth with Song Yun. As for who it was handed over, Dharma did not explain. After Song Yun returned to the court, he was thrown into prison before he could explain the matter of the sword spectrum, so the sword spectrum was not handed over to the imperial court. Later, although Song Yun was acquitted from prison and reinstated, he was already disheartened and resigned and lived in seclusion in the mountains. This sword book was also passed down in the Song family. ”

"When the seven-stroke sword method Dharma was handed down, there were only seven simple sword styles, and there was no other explanation or explanation. The Song family has made countless annotations over the centuries, and each one is very different. ”

"At that time, the master handed me the original of the sword book worn by Bodhidharma and the sword book he explained himself, and said that my senior brother was not right-hearted and ambitious, and he could not pass on the sword book. ”

"Soon after the master passed away, I kept filial piety for three years and studied the swordsmanship left at the same time, at the beginning, the swordsmanship improved rapidly, but after practicing for a period of time, I came to compare the swordsmanship again, and found that the swordsmanship I practiced was very different from the meaning of the sword, and even the opposite of each other, and my heart was extremely distressed. ”

At this moment, the senior brother returned from outside, and after entering the door, he did not worship the master, but came up and asked for the sword book. Of course I don't. Without speculation, my brother and sister drew their swords and started to move. ”

"The two of us are from the same school, and we are equally obsessed with swordsmanship, so our swordsmanship is almost equal. It's just that my brother's actual combat experience over the years is far richer than mine, and after two hundred moves, I will fall behind. When I saw that the defeat had been achieved, I gritted my teeth and used the swordsmanship on the ancient sword spectrum that I thought was wrong. Who knew that the senior brother couldn't resist it, and after more than a dozen moves, he was defeated by my sword. I remembered the same scene, my subordinates showed mercy, and my senior brother left angrily. My master's seclusion was extremely secluded, so I stayed here to concentrate on my cultivation. ”

"After a year, although I feel that the swordsmanship has improved, I always feel that there is a difference with the swordsmanship contained in the sword book, but I can't find anything wrong. I was troubled. To this day, this feeling has not disappeared, and I often worry about it. ”

"One day, my senior brother came to the door again to ask for the sword book, of course I didn't allow it, and the two of them started again. I was full of confidence, thinking that my senior brother was my defeated opponent, and he was not my opponent today. Who knew that as soon as we fought, my brother not only cut off the long sword in my hand with one move, but also chopped off my right hand. ”

Although decades have passed, everyone was still surprised when they heard Ouyang's words, and they were worried about him. Immediately, he laughed secretly in his heart, if Ouyang died at that time, would he still be able to stand here and tell this past at this moment?

Ouyang continued: "Although I was seriously injured at that time, I was also in danger, and immediately used my left hand to stop the bleeding, and at the same time performed light skills and escaped. When the senior brother saw me escape, he didn't chase after me, he searched Xiaogu thoroughly, and got all the sword books and Dharma sword books left by the master. ”

At this time, Ouyang Qianqian, who was sitting on the side, asked with a puzzled face: "Grandpa, your swordsmanship is already higher than that wicked man, how could he cut off his arm?

Ouyang listened to his granddaughter's words and smiled: "Silly boy, decades have passed, and grandpa is no longer in pain." Then he turned to the crowd and said, "I also inquired afterwards, my senior brother didn't know where he got a 'giant sword', and the iron was sharpened like clay, and my arm was lost under that famous sword." Then he sighed and said: "It's worth thinking about it now, do you think that how many people in the world can feel the sharpness of the divine sword and live in the world? It is also a kind of luck to be cut by such a sword!" The sword idiot is like this, and everyone doesn't realize it.

"Afterwards, I learned from the pain, and thought to myself that if I wanted to seek revenge on my senior brother and regain the sword spectrum, I must also have a comparable divine sword. Because Zhang Shicheng and I are both from the Momen, I went to him to ask for a sword. I thought that Zhang Shicheng would push back and block, and I thought of many reasons to borrow the sword in advance, who knew that when I explained my intention to him, Zhang Shicheng didn't say a word, took me into the secret room, and took out the three divine swords for me to choose at will. He turned his head to Shen Chaixing and said, "I still remember that day, it was your father Shen Heng who was guarding outside the secret room. ”

Immediately, he was immersed in the memory: "That day was the happiest day of my life, and I was fortunate to be able to see three peerless swords at the same time. I fell in love with this 'gongfu' at a glance, and there was no reason for it, but I just felt that we were destined for each other. Zhang Shicheng said that I was lucky, and later he would put these swords and other items into the 'Momen Treasure House'. Now that I think about it, although King Wu was at the height of his prosperity at that time, he had already seen the appearance of decay in it, so he made this plan. ”

After the defeat and capture, Zhu Yuanzhang personally persuaded him to surrender in Yingtian, and assured him of his glory and wealth, but Zhang Shicheng never surrendered, and said to Zhu Yuanzhang in a disdainful tone: 'The sun shines on me'! ”

Ouyang said this, thinking of his old friend, and suddenly sighed. For a while, Shen Chaixing was also silent.

Seeing the gloomy atmosphere, Linglong'er took the initiative to ask, "Old man, what is the name of the sword book that you said for a long time, and did you take it back later?"

Ouyang smiled: "I also asked Master the same question about you, and Master's ancestors have also asked it. Listening to the master, when Bodhidharma handed over the sword book to Song Yun, he did not explain what it was, and there was no text, only a few pictures. Now that I think about it, it is easy to understand that Bodhidharma is the patriarch of Zen Buddhism, and Zen Buddhism pays attention to 'not establishing words, teaching outside the teaching', and focusing on epiphany. Therefore, this set of swordsmanship can be nameless, or it can be called by any name, Xing'er, what do you say?" the last sentence suddenly said to Shen Chaixing.

Shen Chaixing's practice of "Great Wuxiang Gong" was originally a Zen exercise, and after hearing Ouyang say this, he nodded unconsciously and said: "Since it was passed on by Patriarch Bodhidharma when he was 'returning to the west', it is better to call it 'Xigui Sword Technique'!"

"Okay!" Ouyang shouted: "This name has a deep Zen skill, and it is in line with the sword intent!" Then he said: "After I got the sword, I wanted to go to my senior brother to take revenge and regain the sword spectrum, but my senior brother has a different identity, there are many people, I can't get close, and I am afraid that there will be any more three long and two short, so I lost this 'gongbu', so I lived in seclusion here, established a mountain villa, and mapped the future of Momen." Fortunately, although there is no sword spectrum, those pictures have already been engraved in my mind, and I can draw them out casually. ”

Linglong'er asked curiously, "Then what happened to your senior brother? Is he still there? What is his name?"

Ouyang listened and said slowly: "My senior brother is now a famous person, his name is Bai Qingchen, and he is known as the Sword God!"
