Ring volume eight, the ferry interception
It is said that Wu Yuangong went to Xiaopenglai in the East China Sea to visit friends, and by accident he made friends with Liu Songliang, the "Nine Present Cloud Dragon".
At that time, the battle was really dark, and the sun and moon were dark.
Fortunately, their friend came back in time, which stopped the battle between the two.
Although the two later shook hands and made peace, this knot was never untied. Not only them, but the battle between complexity and simplicity in the martial arts has never stopped. Is it the weird and varied moves that are better, or the straightforward killing moves that are more effective?
Today, I saw someone using Liu Songliang's swordsmanship, which reminded me of Wu Yuangong's memories back then.
Time has passed, and after many years, both of them have heirs.
It's just that this apprentice of Wu Yuangong is really too uncompetitive, and he can't compete for the leader of the martial arts alliance with his own strength, but he has cut the master's face.
Since he saw a rival in this ring, he would give it a try and see who was better among the disciples of the two of them.
Thinking of this, Wu Yuangong pinched the sword trick with both hands to attack.
In the face of his predecessors whose strength was higher than his own, Wei Guangsheng no longer dared to take it lightly, but more restrained his edge and took it seriously.
Wei Guangsheng learned from his master that the "Bagua Seal Text Kills the Serial Sword", which was an ancient kendo master, and he realized it according to the ancient characters of the Bagua.
It is said that the human emperor Fuxi understood the way of change of heaven and earth, and created the world-famous Fuxi gossip.
The eight characters of Qian, Kun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Xun, Dui, and Gen are not written indiscriminately by Fuxi Pingkong, but are calculated in the heart, which can communicate heaven and earth.
Later generations created spells, arranged troops, and predicted good luck and evil in turn.
However, with one war after another, the essence of the wisdom of these ancestors gradually disappeared with the fear of the rulers.
In the end, these eight ancient characters were also replaced by other characters.
I don't know how many years later, a Taoist planned to retreat to the mountains and forests and concentrate on enlightenment.
Unlike other famous monks who specialize in seeking famous mountains and rivers, this Taoist chose an unknown mountain forest to practice.
One day, an earthquake struck near the cave where the Taoist lived, and the entrance to the cave collapsed, leaving the Taoist trapped in it.
Fortunately, the Taoist people live in the cave all the year round and rarely go down the mountain, so they store a lot of food and water in the cave.
After the earthquake, the topography of the cave has changed somewhat. On the original mountain wall, the stone wall fell off, revealing a road behind it.
At the end of the corridor, there is a little bit of light, which seems to be an exit.
When passing through the Yongdao, the Taoist also discovered that there was a cave in it.
The cave was dry, there was nothing but a gossip map carved on the wall.
Seeing the gossip diagram and the eight ancient characters around, the Taoist's eyes immediately lit up, and his heart felt like an electric shock.
This Taoist, when he was young, was also famous for his swordsmanship. After middle age, there was a sudden change in the family, and his parents, wife and children died one after another, so he saw through the red dust and became a Taoist monk.
Therefore, seeing these eight ancient characters, the rudiments of a set of swordsmanship gradually unfolded like a ripple of a stone thrown into a calm lake.
At that time, the Taoist was already seventy years old.
When he came out of the rivers and lakes at the age of 90, he used this set of "Bagua Seal Text Killing Serial Sword" to become famous all over the world again.
But back then, the Taoist, although he saw the origin of the ancient characters of gossip, had limited talent, and he had to get its shape, and it was difficult to understand the true essence. The swordsmanship that led to the creation of it is known for its moves. If the people who saw the ancient characters back then were the three religions and four saints, then the martial arts created would definitely be even more earth-shattering.
The Taoist also seemed to see his own shortcomings, and used a variety of complicated moves to make up for the shortcomings in the moves.
Each hexagram and sword move in the swordsmanship can regenerate the eight trigrams, and the eighty-eight sixty-four hexagrams can be reincarnated, and in the end there are thousands of changes.
However, the qualifications of Liu Songliang, the successor of this generation, are not as good as the founder back then, and only recently did he understand the changes in the eight moves after the sixty-four hexagram swords.
And this Wei Guangsheng, whether it is the qualification to learn martial arts or the time to learn swords, is not as good as his teacher, and he has only learned the twenty-fourth hexagram sword so far.
These twenty-four hexagram swords are Kun gossip, Gen gossip, and Kan gossip.
These twenty-four moves are the main defense, because Liu Songliang saw that his disciple was not talented enough, and he was afraid that he would take revenge, so he specially taught him to sign up for kung fu.
In the ring, Wei Guangsheng took the initiative to shoot with a sword, and his move was a Kan Bagua Sword with both offense and defense.
Water has three states: gaseous, which can be hidden and invisible, unpredictable, liquid, weak, but once gathered, it gallops, but the mountains are falling, and solid, hard is better than iron, and can block thousands of soldiers and horses.
Wei Guangsheng used the Kan hexagram sword against Wu Yuangong, attacking and retreating.
First test Wu Yuangong with offensive moves, if you find that you are invincible, you will defend with Gen Bagua and Kun Bagua, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack.
But Wu Yuangong can't see such an idea.
Wu Yuangong still remembers the first battle of that year, and he has repeatedly thought and studied it. What kind of changes will the other party have, and how to crack this set of swordsmanship.
Therefore, the Kan Sword Eight Style only attacked two swords, and Wu Yuangong had insight into the opportunity and attacked the enemy everywhere.
Only halfway through the sword move, he was hit by Wu Yuangong's sword finger to the flaw, forcing Wei Guangsheng to change from attack to defense halfway.
Even if it is defensive, the eight swords of the Kun hexagram and the eight swords of the Gen hexagram are still changing, which can make the attacker show flaws.
Offstage, ordinary people couldn't see it really, only to see two figures flipping back and forth. And those martial artists who have some eyesight, what they see are Wei Guangsheng's sword moves that seem to be defending and attacking.
Under the serial fast attack, Wu Yuangong found that the opponent's martial arts were above his apprentice Lu Jiukong.
In terms of accepting apprentices and disciples, Wu Yuangong is ashamed of himself. But after fighting back and forth, Wu Yuangong also found that Wei Guangsheng went back and forth, just twenty-four swordsmanship. Although there are many changes, they all follow the score, and there is no idea or flexibility of their own.
After fighting for a long time, I have already discovered the strength of the other party, and I have also compared the superiority of the apprentices on both sides. If he continues to fight like this, others will only think that his martial arts skills are not as good as before, and he can't even clean up a junior.
Thinking of this, Wu Yuangong's two-handed sword technique added another point of skill, the sword in his left hand was as fast as the wind, and his right finger was powerful and thunderous.
Once Wu Yuangong takes it seriously, no matter how fast Wei Guangsheng is and how he changes his moves, it will be difficult to match the power of the opponent's sword finger.
The entire ring was shaken by the sword qi emitted by Wei Guangsheng.
But under the wrapping of the sword move, the flaw has been locked.
But seeing that Wu Yuangong's body was like a swift wind, he came behind the other party in an instant, and the thunder struck out with a finger, and the iron sword in Wei Guangsheng's hand broke in response.
The sword qi that shrouded the surroundings suddenly collapsed. The people around him were also light, and they exhaled heavily.
Wei Guangsheng's strength was insufficient, his strength was broken, and he immediately spat blood from his mouth.
The sword was broken, Wei Guangsheng's strength was invincible, and he was convinced of the defeat.
But this time in the ring, with the sword of fate as the color, in addition to wanting to be famous in the world, he also wanted to take the opportunity to find out the murderer of the year.
Losing like this, Wei Guangsheng was really unwilling.
"Young man, "Bagua Seal Text Deadly Serial Sword" is known for its move variations, but your bones are hard, which is more suitable for martial arts moves with strong strength and wide opening and closing. ”
Defeated the apprentice of the old opponent and the owner of the Destiny Sword, Wu Yuangong was happy in his heart, so he kindly reminded the late juniors.
But when he heard Wei Guangsheng's ears, there was a taste of irony, as if he was stupid and talented, so he should go back to the furnace and rebuild it.
"Thank you for your advice. These words will definitely be conveyed to the tutor word for word. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Wu Yuangong's reaction, he turned around and jumped out of the ring along the support pillar.
This kind of answer with an unhappy tone, Wu Yuangong also heard the unhappiness in the other party's heart.
But at this point, he couldn't say anything more, he could only watch his opponent leave.
Wu Yuangong was originally a famous swordsman in the world, and he easily defeated the owner of the Returning Sword in the ring. Those who originally had the intention to challenge Wei Guangsheng and seize the Returning Sword also hesitated for a while.
Seeing that no one was in the ring, Wu Yuangong went back to the first floor along the ladder, said a few kind words to everyone, and sat down at the tea table, closing his eyes and recuperating.
In the audience, some people knew that they were invincible and left gloomily.
Some people are unwilling and encourage others to fight in the ring. In the midst of the noise, there was another cold scene in the ring.
After a while, I heard a footstep walking into the ring. It sounds like the steps of the person are not a master.
Wu Yuangong opened his eyes and saw the gong in his hand, struck it a few times, and announced the end of the morning competition.
Wait until noon to eat, and then continue in the afternoon.

At the same time, on a small road leading to the ferry on the other side of the Ping'an River, several mysterious people wearing masks and dressed in gray were blocking the intersection.
Their knives were dripping with blood. On the ground, there were three or four corpses.
"Dispose of the body. ”
As soon as the words fell, several people jumped out of the grass and dragged the body away.
"Boss, what's the point of us killing these nobodies here. ”
"Don't care if the people you kill are famous, but the forces behind them. Only when the entire martial arts is in chaos will our rebel army have a chance. In the past few days, we have killed not only the spies of the two sects of martial arts, good and evil, but also the people of the imperial court. After a long time, all parties thought that there was something wrong with the ring. When the time comes, no matter how many masters they send, we will defeat each one. At that time, it will be our world. ”
"Brilliant plan, wonderful plan......" One person praised it, and several others followed suit.
The leader was a little flustered when he heard this, as if this plan was exactly what he came up with, and those who were killed were all peerless masters.
"The strategy is good, but it's really good for a few of you to do it?"
As soon as these words came out, several people were shocked.
However, since each of them wore masks, they couldn't be seen from the outside.
"Who!" exclaimed the leader.
"A passerby. ”
Not far away, a person walked over slowly.
Although the man was far away, every word he said clearly reached the ears of everyone.
When the man approached, everyone saw that the man was blind, and there were no eyeballs in his sockets, replaced by a pair of yellow spheres, holding a bamboo pole to explore the way.
Seeing that the other party was blind and alone, everyone relaxed again in a blink of an eye.
I heard one person say in a loud voice: "Hey, blind man, this road is not working, you should turn back quickly." ”
"I can't go back. ”
"You blind man is so uninteresting, it's for your own good to let you turn back. ”
The blind man smiled, this man was lying, he could hear it, the person who told the truth and the person who was lying had a different heartbeat and breathing rhythm.
To be able to clearly reach everyone's ears at such a distance, it must not be a simple character.
Therefore, when everyone looked down on this blind man, only the leader did not dare to let down his vigilance.
He was waiting for the blind man to turn back before launching a surprise attack.
But alas, the blind are not fooled.
I saw the blind man pause slightly, and said, "I have a friend who is a cripple, and he came here some time ago, but he never went back. I wonder if you threw his body into the river, or if he was buried on the spot?"
"You ......" the blind man was right, a few days ago, there was indeed a lame man here, planning to go to the ferry. But in line with the principle that it is better to kill by mistake than to let go, the cripple was also killed by them.
As for his body, there are special people to deal with it, and there is no need to take care of it himself.
Seeing that the comer might have avenged his companions, everyone immediately clenched their knives and prepared to attack.
But just when everyone had this idea, the blind man had already made a move.
Although the man was blind, he listened to the sound and argued, and his movements were as swift as thunder. In an instant, he came to the eyes of the leader, and when he was surprised, the blind man had already punched out.
The leader didn't even scream before his head exploded.
This time the momentum sank vigorously, not only the flesh and blood of the slain person flew sideways, but also the people around him were also shocked out.
Everyone was in mid-air, their minds were still buzzing, and the blind man punched out again.
A sad crowd, some of them exploded in mid-air with a ball of blood. Some of them seem to be unharmed on the outside, but in fact, their internal muscles and bones are broken. Even more miserable, the flesh exploded, and a complete skeleton flew out.
Kill these people in an instant. The people hiding in the grass didn't even have a chance to rush out to help deliver the heads.
I saw the sword qi flying, and the heads and weeds were scattered all over the ground.
"It's so disgusting to kill someone. A voice whispered.
"Yes?" the blind man sneered, "why didn't I see it." ”
"Even if you can't see it, you can't smell the smell of blood everywhere?"
"I really can't smell it. Maybe it's the smell of blood from the people you killed. ”
"Alright, stop talking nonsense, let's cross the river quickly. This time, it's our turn to show our abilities. Let those who pretend to be high know whether the cripples they usually look down on are really cripples. ”
☯☯☯☯☯
After a midday break, some people thought it through and finally decided to take on the challenge in the ring in the afternoon.
As the saying goes, geese have left their voices, and people have left their names.
I worked hard to come here, not just to fight in the ring and keep a reputation. Even if you know that your opponent's martial arts are strong and go up to fight to be knocked out of the ring, it is better than being timid and not daring to go up. Even if you withdraw from the rivers and lakes in the future and retire at home, you still have the capital to brag to others.
So, as soon as the ring started in the afternoon, Wu Yuangong walked on stage, and before he could say a word, he saw a strong man, rushed to the ring all of a sudden, and hugged Wu Yuangong.
