Chapter Twenty-Three: Exploring Wudang Mountain at Night

At nightfall, the children lay on their beds and chatted all over the world.

Many children leave home for the first time and start living on their own. Excited and curious, everyone talked to each other.

When the disciples of the night patrol passed by the door, they heard a noise in the room, and they warned them to go to bed early, and to get up early tomorrow morning for morning exercises, and the room was immediately silent.

For the "old people", they also came over like this, they just reminded them kindly. When they left, the children started talking again, and their voices became quieter.

Ziyun, Chu Yunfei and the disciples of Zixiao Palace were in the same room, since several people were familiar with each other, everyone chatted very casually, only Chu Yunfei was alone with his back to everyone, facing the wall, pretending to sleep.

Ziyun's bunk leaned against him, and Ziyun whispered to Chu Yunfei, but he didn't care about Ziyun.

Ziyun had no choice but to chat with other children.

At this time, Dugu Feihong is the focus of everyone, he is older than other children, and the topic naturally arouses the curiosity and yearning of other children.

Dugu Feihong told everyone interesting stories about the rivers and lakes, some of them had never heard of Li Yunhai and Lin Ao, Dugu Feihong made everyone laugh from time to time, and the children got up one after another, sat on the bed and listened.

The persuasion of the patrol disciples did not have any effect, they walked on their front feet, and the sound here immediately sounded again.

It is also inconvenient for the patrol disciples to directly scold them, and in terms of seniority, the children here are taller than them.

The disciples of the patriarch and the master of Tongde will all be elites of Wudang in the future, and they can't afford to offend. Therefore, after reminding them several times to no avail, I didn't bother to teach them a lesson. Tomorrow morning, if they can't get up from morning exercises, the masters will naturally punish them.

Compared to the male disciples, the female disciples were quieter, and they just talked softly with the children on the left and right.

Perhaps, tonight will be the last time the children can relax so much in Wudang Mountain, and they will have to face one rigorous test after another.

When it was over, the lights in the Jade Void Palace were still on.

Zhang Zhenren, Chongxu Chief, Wuchen, Yichen, Tongde, Black and White Elders and other masters of Wudang with extremely high seniority were talking in the backyard.

After a hard day's work, Xuan Sizi, the deacon of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, was tired, and he slept in the attic at the top of the tower.

A "bed" made of rope hung from the ends of the beams, on which he was lying.

Xuan Sizi only went back to sleep in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion when he was very tired.

On weekdays, he likes to run around. The mountain behind Wudang, the roof, the pavilion, and the branches can be used as beds to sleep.

Sometimes, he would run into the black and white elders' bedrooms and harass them.

The two of them were old, and they didn't sleep well, but they finally fell asleep, and after being disturbed by him, they didn't feel sleepy anymore.

For a while, the two couldn't stand it, so they drank some wine before going to bed, let him mess around, and didn't get angry.

Later, Xuan Sizi felt bored and stopped harassing them.

Xuan Sizi later got the nickname "night owl".

He was so tired today that he lay down on the rope and fell asleep.

After a while, he suddenly woke up, gently jumped off the rope, and landed silently on the ground.

He didn't wear shoes, he wore white socks, and tiptoed to the stairs.

He didn't go downstairs, but listened with his ears sideways.

He took advantage of the moonlight to inspect the situation downstairs, but did not notice anything unusual.

However, he was not reconciled, and quietly walked under the rope, put on his shoes, and quietly returned to the stairs.

He tapped the ground on tiptoe and jumped down the stairs, flying down the stairs through the gap in the stairs.

Stand firm at the fifth staircase without making any sound.

He jumped off the railing and landed on the ground.

He didn't go to light the lamp, but used the moonlight to investigate the situation on the fifth floor.

The room was pitch black, and the soft moonlight spilled on several rows of tall bookshelves.

Xuan Sizi was not tall, he hid in the dark of the bookshelf, squatted down, moved his steps gently, and looked in rows.

In the last row, a dark figure was found, rummaging for something.

But I saw that the man was dressed in black, six feet tall, masked, holding a firefly lamp in one hand and looking at ancient books with the other.

When this person pushed the window in, he touched the mechanism and woke up Xuan Sizi in his sleep.

Xuan Sizi was very excited at this time, and he thought to himself, he hadn't met a thief for a long time, and this person disturbed Master Ben's sleep just to teach him a lesson.

He was not in a hurry to sneak attack the man in black, but quietly came behind him, and then suddenly stood up and shouted loudly: "Little mouse, dare to disturb Master Ben's sleep, come to my Wudang Mountain to steal books, increase the crime, look for a fight." ”

Xuan Sizi shouted loudly, like a blow to the head. The man was so frightened that the book and the sac in his hand shook to the ground.

He turned to look, but found no one, and was about to lean over to pick up the book.

Xuan Sizi was furious, raised his foot on the man's buttocks, and kicked it hard.

The man was defenseless and fell heavily to the floor, embarrassed.

He was about to get up when he endured the pain, and when Xuan Sizi saw this, he laughed.

Seeing that he was about to get up, he sat on top of him with his buttocks, pressed him with internal force, and couldn't move.

The man in black secretly felt bad, and struggled many times to no avail, he supported the ground with both hands, and wanted to use internal force to force the person pressing on his body away, but he obviously felt that the other party's internal force was mellow.

In desperation, he had no choice but to exert all his strength to improve his internal strength, and instantly slapped his hand heavily on the floor.

Xuan Sizi was defenseless, he was freeing his hand to hit the butt of the man in black, and was saying: "Call you a thief, this punch is to teach you for your father, this punch is to teach you for your mother, and this punch is for this master to teach you." ”

The man in black realized at this time that it was a little Taoist boy who was playing him, and he didn't care about his face, so he flew up quickly.

Xuan Sizi was bounced away by the internal force of the man in black, he immediately stabilized his body, landed firmly on the ground, and a white crane came to dry his wings.

After the man flew up, he immediately fell, quickly turned around, and headed towards Xuan Sizi.

At this time, he looked at this little Taoist priest carefully by the moonlight. secretly blamed himself for being careless and was teased by him. Just left, he was unwilling.

He didn't take this little Taoist priest seriously, he confronted each other slightly, he clenched his fists with both hands, one forward and one back, took a step forward with his left foot, and instantly exerted force with his right foot and kicked towards the little Taoist.

Seeing this, Xuan Sizi took a step back, avoided the kicked soles, and used his kung fu to fight with the man.

There is a huge difference in height between the man in black and Xuan Sizi, and Xuan Sizi is agile, so he can't hit Xuan Sizi with either boxing or footwork. On the contrary, after dozens of rounds, the man in black fell behind.

On the other hand, Xuan Sizi sometimes dodges left and right, sometimes jumps and kicks, sometimes sticks closely, and sometimes elbows the vital point.

The man in black was gradually defeated and tired of coping. He knew that the little Taoist priest was using the Wudang Sect Peerless Sect, but he couldn't crack it for a while, it felt like a hammer hitting cotton and a fist smashed into the water, and the strength of his whole body couldn't be exerted.

The man in black secretly thought that if he continued to deal with him like this, he would not be able to get out. In order to end the battle as soon as possible, he first used the powerful Vajra Finger of the Zen Gate, and after not being able to get the slightest bargain, he switched to the Shadowless Hand, trying to crack this Wudang trick.

But seeing that the man in black turned his fist into a palm, he increased his internal strength to the extreme, and pushed his palm towards Xuan Sizi.

Xuan Sizi was taken aback when he saw this, he didn't expect that someone would show his long-lost shadowless hand.

Fighting with him just now, the routines performed by this man in black are quite complicated, including Zen Arhat Boxing, Mighty King Kong Hand, Kunlun Sect's Thirteen Roads Tan Legs, Changchun Palace Wuxiang Wusheng Fist and other rivers and lakes, but he never took it to heart.

This sharp palm, with a strong palm strength, came head-on, Xuan Sizi took a step back, and while improving his internal strength, he immediately changed his move, kicked the ground with his right foot, and turned his fist into a palm. Completely change the way of Taijiquan, do not unload this palm power, but use the palm of your hand to catch the opponent's palm.

The two palms struck, and Xuan Sizi fought hard with the man in black. I only heard the "ah" of the man in black, and was shocked back by Xuan Sizi's palm, he took a few steps back, and barely used his internal force to suppress his steps.

The man in black's face turned pale, he thought that the little Taoist would use Tai Chi to unload his palm power, so he could take the opportunity to change his moves, crack the little Taoist's Tai Chi, and then exert his strength again, turning his palm into a fist to sneak attack the little Taoist.

Unexpectedly, the little Taoist priest took his palm power alive, and took this move, the little Taoist priest just took two steps back and landed firmly on the ground without any difficulty.

The man in black knew that he couldn't stay any longer, and immediately broke the window and flew out.

Seeing this, Xuan Sizi immediately came to the window and shouted loudly: "Little thief, don't slip away, accompany Master Ben to fight for a few more rounds, just escape, beware of falling off the cliff and falling to your death." ”

Xuan Sizi's shout attracted the sleeping disciples downstairs. They immediately got up, lit the lamp, and came upstairs, where Xuan Sizi ordered someone to report to the head of the house, and ordered someone to notify Qingfeng to arrest him.

The patrol disciples of the Qingfeng Sect patrolled the mountain for a long time, but they didn't find anyone, but they found a pool of blood at the bottom of the mountain, and they couldn't find any traces.

After Chong Xuan knew the situation, he ordered someone to reply to this little uncle.

Xuan Sizi knew that the light skills and internal skills of the people who came were superior, and the martial arts were huge and complex, which was beyond the reach of ordinary people, so he had to give up if he escaped.

He ordered his disciples to tidy up the messy bookshelves, tidy up the scattered books, and raise their vigilance, and then went back to the roof of the building, lay down and went to sleep.

It is said that the man in black, after escaping from the mountain, immediately performed light skills, flew past several houses, and landed in a courtyard.

He quickly walked into the room and closed the door. Instead of lighting the lamp, he sat on the bed and began to heal his wounds.

He never expected that tonight he would be defeated by a hairy boy. After walking the rivers and lakes for so long, he lost his hand in Wudang Mountain.

Thinking about the repeated successes in other places before, he really couldn't swallow this bad breath. Thinking about it, he will definitely avenge this palm one day.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly spit out another mouthful of blood.

He quickly calmed down and stopped thinking nonsense.

At this time, the door was pried open, and the man in black suddenly became alert, but he was meditating and healing, and he didn't dare to be distracted, for fear of going mad.

Walking in from outside the house was a masked woman dressed in black, who lit the oil lamp on the table and sat on a chair beside her. Seeing that the woman was light and graceful, she laughed softly: "Hehe, senior brother also misses sometimes, do you want my little sister to walk for you?"

The man in black who was sitting on the bed saw that the person who came was his junior sister, he relieved his heart, and while healing, he replied: "When did you follow me to this point? It's you, ignoring the teacher's orders, and going out of the valley without authorization, but you're here to mess with your old lover again? I'm afraid that the shaving head will be hot, and the junior sister will be amorous again. ”

"The dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people. My sister is kind to help, but you hurt people. Anyway, the senior sister of Quan Dang has never come. When the woman had finished speaking, she took a bottle of medicine from her waist, put it on the table, and then extinguished the light and walked out of the house.

Walking to the door, she chuckled and said, "Shizun ordered Senior Brother to go to Kyoto to do business, if he knew that Senior Brother was doing chivalrous deeds here, I am afraid that his old man would be so angry that he would vomit blood." ”

The man in black said angrily: "You-you dare to blackmail Senior Brother?"

"Don't dare, junior sister just reminded senior brother that you and I go our own way and have nothing to do with each other. If the junior sister hears the rumors again, beware of the little sister who is open-mouthed one day and accidentally speaks out. ”

"You—" The man in black sighed helplessly before he finished speaking.

The woman lowered the bolt, drew her dagger, turned and flew out of the courtyard, disappearing into the night.
