Chapter 14: Disciples of the Divine Fist Sect
Luoyang is only more than 300 miles away from Kaifeng, Xian Yutong wants to ride a horse to hurry, can arrive in one day, but the two monks of Yuanyin do not know equestrianism, the three of them have to rush with light skills, although the foot is only slightly slower than riding a horse, but it is always dusty, not chic and comfortable enough.
Today's martial arts inheritance of various schools on the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years have their own uniqueness, but if you talk about light skills, Wudang Tiyun Zong and Kunlun School light skills are the most significant, although Shaolin also has a stunt and a reed to cross the river and other top light skills, but the disciples do not practice much.
The Huashan faction light gong body method is only in the middle of the six major schools, although Xian Yutong has practiced hard for several years, but after all, he is young and not enough to accumulate, and the internal and external skills are quite popular, but the light gong practice is very rare, so he practiced the light gong with the anti-two-ritual footwork when he was in a hurry.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin light skills are not as good as Xian Yutong, just striding with a bright copper Zen cane, looking at the footsteps are not very fast, but after a while, they will walk dozens of zhang away, Xian Yutong walks lightly on both legs, and a leap is more than two meters away, although most of the thoughts are used in practice, but the speed is not slow, and the two Yuanyin disappeared on the official road like a gust of wind.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin's strength is outstanding, and they walked all the way for more than 200 miles before slowing down, and Xian Yutong on one side has already had sore legs, all supported by internal force.
Look at the sun has come to the afternoon, the three of them have had breakfast, the time is almost out of time (about 7 o'clock), Xian Yutong estimates that it is now close to four o'clock in the afternoon (one o'clock at noon), the three of them have walked for more than two hours (5 hours), Xian Yutong secretly said in his heart: We have an average of 40 kilometers per hour, which is already extremely fast, and it is estimated that we will be able to reach Kaifeng Mansion at dusk.
The two of them are not good at talking, and they don't want to talk when they have something on their minds, and the three of them slowed down and walked for more than ten minutes to see a village, and when they walked in, they saw the tallest bamboo pole holding a tattered flag, and they could vaguely see the three words Liu Dianji written on it.
Yuanyin said: "Mr. Xianyu, when you arrive at Liudianji, ten miles ahead is Zhengzhou, shall we have some refreshments here to rest for a while or go to Zhengzhou to rest?"
Xian Yutong's legs have long been like poured lead, although his skills are profound, but he has never made a big effort for many years, and his legs have not traveled far, and he doesn't want to go anymore when he sees the bazaar, and said with a smile: "The five phoenix knife and the divine fist sect and other sects have already trapped Yin Yewang and Bai Guishou in Kaifeng, we don't have to worry, let's eat a bowl of noodles here." ”
Yuanxin also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, his strength was not as good as Yuanyin, his skill was not as good as Xian Yutong, and now it was hard to support, seeing that Xian Yutong was also going to rest here, he walked quickly to a noodle shop, and said: "Mr. Xian Yu, senior brother, I ate a bowl of river drain here the year before last, and the taste is quite good, you might as well try it too?"
Xian Yu Tongyan's heart moved, and he smiled: "What is the river drain?"
Now under the rule of the Great Yuan, the Mongolian Tatars are brutal and hateful, the most will oppress the people, the original is the granary since ancient times, but the people of the Central Plains are very poor, in order to save rations, the northerners are eating two meals a day, now it is only about one o'clock, and the noodle shop will have customers in waiting for an hour.
Therefore, a middle-aged couple who were sitting in the shop saw two monks and young scholars coming and hurriedly came out to greet them, and when they heard Xian Yutong's words, they explained: "Gongzi Ye must have come to Henan less, and our river drain is the noodles pressed out with buckwheat noodles, which have a chewy taste and taste delicious, and then boil them in mutton soup to make a fragrant taste!
Xian Yutong walked into the shop first, looked at the low and rough low stools and flat tables in the grass hut, and picked a clean place to sit down.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin also walked in and sat not far from Xian Yutong, and the middle-aged man asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Xian Yutong was about to speak, Yuan Xin took out a handful of copper coins from his arms, handed it over and said: "What are you talking about? ”
The man took the copper coin and turned around to mix vegetables with his woman, below.
Xian Yutong originally wanted to drink a dime, but remembered that the two monks couldn't eat wine, and it was quite rude to drink alone, so he had to pour a glass of water to drink.
Xian Yutong thought that the Shaolin warrior monk was the only monk who ate meat in China since ancient times, because he had seen the story of the thirteen stick monks saving the Tang King in the early Tang Dynasty, and Tang Taizong Li Shimin issued an order to give Shaolin Temple to eat meat after he ascended the throne.
The husband and wife were neat with their hands and feet, and after a while, they brought two plates of side dishes and three large bowls of fragrant river drains.
After a long time of boiling, the mutton soup and mutton can hardly smell the smell of mutton, but it is fragrant, plus a handful of coriander to enhance the freshness, already a little hungry Xian Yutong suddenly felt in his mouth, picked up the chopsticks and ate it.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin are monks who have been practicing in the rivers and lakes for a long time, not as rigid as the monks in the temple, although they don't eat wine and meat, they can't help others, and they are not afraid to eat at the same table with Xian Yutong, but they regard the aroma of broth that lingers on the nose as nothing.
After eating noodles, the three of them sat down again and rested for a quarter of an hour, and then continued on their way.
In the afternoon, when the sky was just dark, the three of them entered Kaifeng Mansion, Kaifeng was called Chenliu and Daliang in ancient times, and it was the former capital of the former dynasty, Tokyo Bianliang, a prosperous place in the Qingming Shanghe map, hundreds of years ago it was already the world's most prosperous city, and it was already known as the city that never sleeps.
After the baptism of war of the two dynasties and the three kingdoms, the mottled city wall of the ancient city of Kaifeng Mansion represents its rich experience and suffering, Xian Yutong three people walked on the streets of Kaifeng Mansion, the shops on both sides of the street hung lanterns, although the prosperous Tokyo city hundreds of years ago was depressed and dilapidated, but it can still see the profound heritage.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin looked at the secret messages left by other sects while walking, and Xianyu was not very experienced in Tongjianghu, so they took the opportunity to learn, and when the three of them were strolling, a young man suddenly came out of the alley on the side, knelt in front of the three, and said, "The two masters are Shaolin Yuanyin Master and Yuanxin Master?"
Yuanyin first stared at it with one eye wide and one eye, and then with a wave of his sleeves, a wind lifted the young man up.
When the young man got up, he saw that Yuanyin was full of energy, so he stood aside respectfully with his hands down.
Yuan Xin frowned and asked, "Who are you, how do you recognize us?"
The young man said: "The junior Song Zeng is a disciple of the Shenquan Sect, and our head knows that the two of them are coming, so he specially sent me to wait here." ”
Yuanyin said: "This is Mr. Xian Yutong, the head of the Huashan faction, who was invited by us to help with the fist. ”
When Song Zeng heard that this handsome young scholar turned out to be the head of the Huashan faction of the Central Plains faction, he hurriedly knelt down and said: "The junior Song Zeng pays a visit to the head of Xian Yu! The junior has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and he neglects the senior, and asks the senior to punish him!"
Xian Yutong was taken aback by Song Zeng's polite actions, thinking that they might have been frightened by Xie Xun, so they had great respect for the famous people in the rivers and lakes and the predecessors of the big faction, and had the heart to reach out to help Song Zeng, but he felt that Yuanyin's swing of sleeves was quite chic, and if he bent down and stretched out his hand to help, he would be worse than Yuanyin.
As soon as his mind moved, Xian Yutong raised his hands falsely, and after slapping his palm on the ground, Song Zeng's arms and shoulders were in the socket, Song Zeng's martial arts were low, and he couldn't see the fame, but he saw the head of Huashan raise his body with both hands and stood up lightly, Song Zeng, who had never seen a master, felt that he had changed from kneeling to standing in a trance, and then looked at Xian Yutong as if he had seen an immortal, and Xian Yutong, who knew the fairy law, also made him admire and worship, and respected him like a god.
Yuanyin and Yuanxin saw that Xian Yutong hit the ground with heavy palm force and refracted it to Song Zeng's body to help him up, and the palm force angle and strength had to be just right, among which a little carelessness could hurt Song Zeng, Yuanyin and the two thought that they couldn't do it, and they admired Xian Yutong's skill and strength even more.
