Chapter 16: The Nine-Headed Jade

In the middle of the gray courtyard lined up in Chu Halberd Villa, in the middle of a three-story attic, Chu Tiangui sat on the Taishi chair, and the lower ones were Chu Wutang, Chu Wenjing, Chu Junxin, and Chu Xueyi's senior brothers and sisters.

Chu Wenjing said: "Master, this time the disciple made an unannounced visit along the route of the overlord's retreat, and finally found the descendants of the overlord's henchman General Li. According to his recollection, after the defeat of the overlord, his ancestor was unwilling to lose, and still led his army to fight a fierce battle with the Han army in Gucheng. In order to recruit General Li, Liu Bang sent someone to send the head of the overlord to Gucheng, buried in the south of Huashan, and buried with golden jade clothes and Wang Lihou. General Li was grateful to Liu Bang for his virtue, so he led the officers and soldiers of the city to surrender, and General Li himself stayed in front of the tomb of the overlord until he died of old age. When I heard the news, I immediately rushed to the place where the overlord was buried. ”

Chu Tiangui said excitedly: "How?"

Chu Wenjing shook his head and said: "The overlord cemetery has been changed beyond recognition, the tomb is full of holes, and no clues have been found. ”

Chu Tiangui sighed, and said in amazement: "Without the Jade Bi Heart Method, the 'Overlord Nine Style' will not be able to exert its power at all, and when will my Xiang clan's remnants be able to get out of this reckless mountain." ”

Chu Xueyi said coquettishly: "Master, I think it's very beautiful here." ”

"What do you know about a daughter's family? Chu Tiangui shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Our original surname is 'Xiang', but now we can only hide in the mountains incognito, which is really worthy of our ancestors." ”

Chu Junxin asked: "Master, all along, we only know that the 'Overlord Nine Styles' have a lot to do with this jade, but we don't know what the mental method contained in this jade is true?"

"The mental method contained in this bi is very involved, and it is related to the safety of the villa, so you don't need to ask in detail. Chu Tian returned: "You just need to know that the mental method contained in the jade bi is the foundation of the 'Overlord Nine Styles', and it must be searched for from generation to generation. ”

"Master, then tell us about the situation of Yubi, maybe it will be helpful to find clues to Yubi. Chu Xueyi said.

Chu Tiangui nodded: "This piece of jade is the thing of my Xiang ancestor, the color is like rouge, the shape is like the palm of the hand, and the bi contains the ancient and peerless Xuanmen internal martial arts, which is not trivial." The jade bi originally had nine heads, but the nine heads have been lost, and only half of the palm-shaped rouge bi remains. In that year, after the overlord Xiang Yu was awarded rouge, he studied and immersed in prostitution for several years, and finally achieved a small success, and integrated the battlefield combat skills to create the 'Overlord Nine Styles', which was invincible on the battlefield. ”

"The Nine Styles of Overlord and the Jade Heart Method are martial arts and exercises, and the two cooperate seamlessly, complement each other, and are extremely powerful. ”

"Although the overlord is extremely talented, the mysteries and profoundness of the mind contained in the jade bi are obscure, broad and profound, and the overlord's understanding is only two or three out of ten, so the overlord has always been close to the secret and studied from time to time. After the overlord was defeated and killed, Yubi never knew where to go. And the 'Overlord Nine Style' has always been retained by the Xiang family, which is under the care of the patriarch. After the Xiang clan fled to Shennongjia, the 'Overlord Nine Style' has been kept in my Chu Halberd Villa. ”

Chu Tiangui sighed, and then said: "I think that back then, the overlord Xiang Yu followed his uncle Xiang Liang to raise troops in Wuzhong, led eight thousand soldiers, overcame thorns and thorns, passed the test, and overthrew the Great Qin Dynasty. The overlord is brave and brave in the world, unique through the ages, but unfortunately his luck is not good, and he was taken advantage of by Liu Bang's treacherous scheme, and finally failed, and he killed himself to thank Jiangdong's father. After the defeat of the overlord's army, Liu Bang led a large army to the lower prime minister, trying to strangle the overlord Xiang clan who stayed behind the lower prime minister and cut the grass to the roots. When the Xiang clan heard the news, they escaped by boat overnight, and fled to the territory of Shennongjia, which is surrounded by thousands of mountains and filled with clouds and mist, and took root in the valley of Crescent Lake. In order to hide people's eyes, all the people of my Xiang clan changed their names to the surname "Chu" and established the Chu Halberd Villa, and the first owner of the village was the patriarch of the Xiang clan. Since the establishment of the village, the successive owners have all taken it as their responsibility to find the jade heart method and reorganize the heroic style of my West Chu, but unfortunately all the enthusiasm and hope have turned into flowing water. ”

"The 'Overlord Nine Style' was born on the battlefield, the moves are simple and practical, without tricks, and its power lies in 'fast' and 'rigid'. But without the mental method, the 'Overlord Nine Style' is like the bright moon in the well, with form but no god, and it can't exert its domineering and rapid power at all. ”

When everyone heard this, they all sighed. Chu Wenjing said: "Because of this, despite everyone's diligent practice, they are still not as good as Feihe Hall's 'Spirit Snake Sword Technique', and the children of Zhuangzhong are reluctant to enter Chu Wutang. ”

Chu Tiangui nodded: "Back then, Taihemen awarded the Taihemen basic exercise 'Spirit Snake Sword Technique' to the villa because of my villa's meritorious service in resisting the cult. The first master also took into account the lack of mental method in the 'Overlord Nine Styles', and the disciples of Zhuangzhong were never able to touch the martial arts realm, so they established the Feihe Hall to specialize in the 'Spirit Snake Sword Technique' to improve the strength of the villa. Unexpectedly, in just a few decades, the children of Zhuangzhong were all vying to cultivate the 'Spirit Snake Sword Technique', and Chu Wutang was becoming more and more weakened. To this day, there are only three of you brothers left, but they are helpless. ”

Chu Tiangui looked into the distance with a melancholy expression for a long time, and asked, "Wenjing, since you haven't found any clues about the jade bi, why are you seriously injured like this?"

Chu Wenjing said: "This matter is strange to say, it seems that I am not the only one in Chu Ji Villa who is looking for clues to the jade bi. After I found the tomb of the overlord, I met an old woman who was over sixty years old in the tomb, and the old woman was so powerful, a pair of fleshy claws were like ten sharp blades, directly fighting the sword, hard as iron, and grasping stones into powder. I have a few bloody holes on my back, which are due to the old woman. ”

Chu Tiangui was horrified in his heart and asked, "Is there a flame flower embroidered on her chest, and the characters are arranged?"

"Exactly, the eight flame flowers on the chest of the outer coat!" Chu Wenjing replied.

"Our Lady of the Divine Fire Gate in Southern Fujian!" Chu Tiangui exclaimed: "It is rumored that the Sect Master of the Divine Fire Sect and the Holy Mother of God have completed the Divine Fire Divine Skill in one hand, although he is a member of the Demon Sect, his internal strength is extremely masculine, his hands are like forging, the sword is impenetrable, and the fire is not rotten. You were able to escape her life, and it was a great blessing to invite heaven. ”

"I was able to escape, but not by luck, but by someone else. Chu Wenjing said: "I was hit by her claw, almost powerless, and when I was in despair, a red black light flashed on the ground, hitting the old woman's vital point, I don't know where the divine help." That secret weapon is powerful, as fast as a streamer, if it comes to the disciple, a hundred lives are not enough. ”

Chu Tiangui was shocked and said, "Who is the master to come to the rescue?"

Chu Wenjing shook his head and said, "Speaking of this, it's very strange. After the man was rescued in the Overlord's Graveyard, he never appeared. But on our way back from the cemetery, it seems that someone has been following us, but we have not seen him. What's even more strange is that later, on the way, I met two groups of small local sects, and they directly asked me for martial arts secrets, but it was incomprehensible. ”

Chu Tian returned: "You went to the Overlord Cemetery to look for clues to the jade bi, except for the Holy Mother of Shenhuo Gate and the invisible master you met in the cemetery, no one should know." ”

Chu Jun believed: "The Holy Mother of Shenhuo Gate is dead, and the small sects in these places are provoking all the way, it should be that the master deliberately released the rumors. ”

Chu Wen nodded and said, "So I speculate that the master came to the rescue in the cemetery, not out of kindness. If the speculation is correct, it is very likely that the person has something to do with Rouge. ”

Chu Tian returned: "In this way, I am afraid that this jade clue will fall on that master's person." ”

Chu Xueyi said excitedly: "Then why don't we come to the reverse road and follow the vine to touch the melon, wouldn't we be able to find the rouge jade?"

"It's not proper!" Chu Wenjing shook his head and said: "That person's martial arts are really too high, although he didn't look at his face, but just looking at the secret weapon technique, he was already breathtaking." If you act rashly, and the secret clues are not found, but instead lure the wolf into the room, wouldn't my Chu Halberd Villa be in danger. ”

Chu Tiangui's face changed slightly, and he said, "Wen Jing is reasonable. If he is alone, with the power of my martial arts, he may be able to fight against it. But if you add his fellow teachers and the same party, such a big enemy, if you are not careful, Chu Ji Villa may be destroyed. ”

Chu Tiangui got up and paced back and forth in the hall, his brows were furrowed, he thought for a long time, and then turned around and said: "This matter is related to the lives of hundreds of people in the villa, from today on, you senior brothers and sisters should not go out of the mountain again, so as not to show their tracks and be found by the villa, wait for this limelight to talk about it." ”
