Chapter 7: Successful Theft

"Hehe, the efforts of the Shaolin Temple have been completely failed today. ...... If they knew about this, I don't know what kind of expression it would be, it should probably be ugly!" Pursed his lips slightly, with the unique function of the invisibility talisman, Ye Qiuli didn't care about the infrared rays for detection and the cameras for surveillance, just dodged a few floor tiles that might be equipped with pressure sensors, and then stepped into the secret room of the scriptures openly, and walked straight to the bookshelves where various secret books and materials were placed, and began to check his gains.

At this time, after carefully avoiding those high-tech detection equipment, he could naturally walk freely between the empty ancient wooden bookshelves, and look at the precious ancient books that the Shaolin Temple has collected for hundreds of thousands of years.

Although there was not a single light in the entire Scripture Pavilion, it was not a problem for Ye Qiuli, who had already cultivated to the middle stage of foundation building, and his eyes already had night vision. The void generates electricity and sees things secretly, which is completely a piece of cake in the eyes of cultivators.

"Hehe, the Shaolin Scripture Pavilion is really worthy of its name, and all the cheats here add up, I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of volumes!" Although it has long been expected that the number of martial arts cheats collected in the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion will inevitably be not a few, but after really being in it, Ye Qiuli found out how much this number is. As far as the eye can see, the room is full of books, wired ancient books, cloth scriptures, and even a large number of bamboo slips and wooden slips, which show the solemnity of time in the mottled vicissitudes of life, silently telling the long-standing historical inheritance of the thousand-year-old faction.

After seeing the tens of thousands of books and materials collected in the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion, Ye Qiuli couldn't help but be overjoyed, and while flipping through these extremely precious and unique ancient books, he kept nodding secretly: "Shaolin Temple is a famous martial arts sect that has been established for thousands of years, although it is now in decline, but the heritage accumulated in those countless years is still not to be underestimated. In other places, even if these materials exist, they may not be as rich and complete as here. ...... I won't go home empty-handed this time!"

Indeed, in this scripture theft operation, Ye Qiuli's harvest was definitely not shallow, and it could be said that it was a bumper harvest. The Shaolin Temple Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is indeed the most prestigious martial arts holy place in the martial arts, in which the martial arts cheats, martial arts materials are full of sweat, and there are countless of them. Boxing, palming, fingering, legs, grappling, claws, knives, swords, sticks, marksmanship, internal strength, body and other cheats, divided into categories, there are no less than thousands of books. In addition, there are a larger number of monks' codexes, martial arts biographies, and wild histories piled up aside, leaving them to be read by future generations.

"With so many precious materials, it makes people dizzy when they look at it, which ones should be taken away?" Facing the tens of thousands of cheats in the Scripture Pavilion, Ye Qiuli couldn't help frowning and thinking hard, in a dilemma, unable to decide how to choose. There are too many valuable things in these materials, and if they are all stolen, it is obviously impossible, and it will definitely be too late in time, but no matter which one he gives up, he is a little unwilling, and he always feels that it is difficult to choose.

After thinking about it repeatedly, the tangled Ye Qiuli finally made a rational choice with regret, and while quickly starting to act, he smiled and whispered: "Hehe, sometimes it's embarrassing to have too many good things, I don't know how to choose...... Well, first take the fists and feet, the internal strength and body method, and then take away the materials such as the monk's codex and the secret history of martial arts, and if you need anything else, you will come again next time. ”

After weighing the pros and cons, making up his mind, and making a good choice, Ye Qiuli no longer had any hesitation and immediately took action. I saw him quickly walk to the bookshelf where the internal strength and mental methods were stacked, open the secret books one by one, open the stealth ability of the phantom night clothes, shroud them in the stealth range, and then took out a small digital camera to take pictures one by one for storage.

Hehe! That's right, it's a digital camera! Being a thief also pays attention to keeping pace with the times, Ye Qiuli was never ready to steal all these things back, all he needed was what was recorded in it. Moving physical books back and forth is not only troublesome, but it also leaves traces, startling snakes and causing some unnecessary trouble. Where is it as easy and convenient as taking a photo with a digital camera, you don't take anything, you don't alarm anyone, and if you have something to find, you can come back next time.

Come and go as he pleases, and under the smooth wind, he completely regards the Shaolin Temple's Scripture Pavilion as his own library.

It took three or four hours to take pictures of all the exercises and materials he needed, and when he saw that the sky was about to shine, Ye Qiuli finally quietly withdrew from Shaolin Temple with a heavy harvest and re-embarked on the road back home......

After going all the way non-stop, directly across thousands of miles, and quickly returning to his new residence, Ye Qiuli didn't have time to carefully check the specific harvest of this trip, quickly took care of his personal hygiene, and after taking a pill of Bigu Dan, he took out the cloud silk futon, sat on it and entered the cultivation state. This night, his true qi had really consumed a lot, and now he was in a hurry to replenish it.

Although the previous stealth and light body effects were all achieved by using invisibility talismans and supernatural talismans, and Ye Qiuli did not need to consume true qi to maintain it, but the practice of turning on the stealth function of the phantom nightwalk and using a digital camera to take pictures and open up a safe space for himself to take pictures had been consuming his few true qi all the time, and after three or four hours in a row, his true qi had almost been completely consumed.

There is no visible light source in the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion, and if you want to use a digital camera to take pictures, you must use a flash. In order to prevent that strong flash from being detected by the defense facilities in the Scripture Pavilion, Ye Qiuli could only include it in his own stealth range, making it isolated from the outside world. During that last period of time, he had actually been consuming his true qi, and if he hadn't just broken through to the middle stage of foundation building, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on for that long.

......

After successfully getting the martial arts cheats and martial arts materials he needed from Shaolin Temple, Ye Qiuli completely let go of his worries and temporarily settled down. In the days that followed, he didn't step out of the house for half a step, except for meditation and cultivation, the rest of the time was completely immersed in the photos he had taken before, and it took nearly half a month of work to completely organize them and arrange them into a clear system framework.

After arranging all these cheats and materials in the computer, and transcribing and translating them as necessary, Ye Qiuli did not immediately rush to practice those famous martial arts skills, but first selected a few materials and notes that explained the history of martial arts and read them carefully.

This is not that Ye Qiuli suddenly changed his mind and gave up martial arts cultivation. He had already planned it before, and immediately after getting the cheats, he would cultivate a few real martial arts to protect himself and improve his combat ability in an all-round way. The reason why he put it aside for the time being is because in his opinion, these martial arts secrets have been completely mastered in his hands, and he can officially start cultivating at any time, and there is no need to grasp these few days at all, and it is more important to have a full understanding of the ancient martial arts that have been passed down in the land of China for thousands of years.

As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and nothing can be done well without being frizzy. In reality, there are many examples of speed but not reaching, and practicing martial arts is no exception. After figuring out the essential truth and the ins and outs of ancient Chinese martial arts, and grasping the most detailed technical characteristics before cultivating, you will definitely be able to become familiar with the road and get twice the result with half the effort. And there's no quickest way to learn about a culture than to study its history.

The Shaolin Temple's record of the birth and development of martial arts is very complete, and it has been involved for thousands of years. In the records and legends about the origin of martial arts, the ancestors of Shaolin Temple left a statement that seems absolutely fantastical to modern ordinary people: in the ancient era of the earth, it was not the current ancient martial arts cultivators who were active in the world, nor ordinary mortals, but a group of practitioners who pursued immortality and ascension to the heavenly realm as the ultimate goal.

Among these cultivators are immortal cultivators, demon cultivators, Buddha cultivators, demon cultivators, and other relatively rare cultivators. In short, the system is very complex, and it is difficult to distinguish between them without careful study. But no matter how they are divided, there is a common characteristic of these cultivators that is constant, that is, they all have extremely powerful magical powers, as well as unimaginable longevity.

At that time, it was the era when this group of cultivators galloped and acted recklessly, and it was an era when fairy tales, myths and legends emerged one after another. It was an era when personal strength was at its peak, an era in which the cultivation world was extremely prosperous, an era in which all kinds of legendary stories were constantly emerging, and an era in which all martial arts cultivators had to bow and worship.

It's a pity that the prosperity can't last, the good times can't last long, and there must be some kind of inexplicable crisis hidden behind the prosperity. Later, I don't know what happened in the cultivation world, all the high-level cultivators suddenly disappeared collectively, leaving only some low-level apprentices who had not yet entered remain, and the originally prosperous cultivation world also quickly declined overnight.

After the high-level cultivators disappeared en masse, those apprentices who had just mastered a little bit of cultivation also slowly embarked on the path of cultivation. It's a pity that they lack advanced exercises and have no guidance, they never find the way forward, and they continue to fail and fail again in the process of cultivation, either they go mad and die, or they achieve nothing, and their efforts are wasted, and in the end, no one cultivates to the realm of the ancient cultivators.
