Chapter 36: The Origin of Martial Arts

Bai Cheng came to this world, although he had seen many martial arts figures and heard some deeds of the rivers and lakes, but since Bai Tiehan died, he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, practiced martial arts, and although he could not be said to be ignorant of the general trend of the world, he did not know much about it.

After a long conversation with Qingji Daoren in the quiet room today, Bai Cheng knew that the current world, called the dispute between the Seven Kingdoms and the Hu and Han dynasties, is actually the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.

Now the Yangtze River north of the Zhou, Qi, Wei three countries, are the Hu people to establish the country, a total of respect Buddhism White Lotus Sect Jingxu and two other monks as the national teacher, when the national strength was strong, repeatedly joined forces to cross the river, want to dominate the world, although the country has declined slightly in recent years, but also eyeing Jiangdong.

The four kingdoms of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, the Liang Dynasty, and the Chen Dynasty were founded by the Han people and respected the Taoist sect. In recent years, the four countries in the south of the Yangtze River have gradually recovered their vitality, and the four patriarchs of the Daomen want to gather the forces of the south of the Yangtze River and the Northern Expedition to recover their homeland.

As for the royal families of the seven kingdoms in the world, they all receive the names of the protectors of the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, and the high-ranking officials of the court and the central government are also inextricably linked with the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism.

When Bai Cheng heard this, he suddenly asked: "The two sects of the imperial court and Buddhism and Taoism, one bright and one dark, one positive and one negative, are enough to encompass the world, why is there still a place for people in the martial arts?"

Qingji Daoren's expression darkened and said: "It's just because there is no righteous man in the clothes, so I let the grass see Qixiong." The imperial court and Buddhism and Taoism should complement each other, one in the court and the other in the opposition, leading the people of the world, but the red and the black near the Zhu are close to the black, and the two affect each other, and there are inevitably some unsatisfactory places between the operation, so there are masters who build their own sects, and they do not want to be confused with the two. When these sects were first established, the imperial court and Buddhism and Taoism had to be suppressed, but later there were more and more sects, and even some masters in the imperial court and the masters of Buddhism and Taoism broke away and became a faction of their own, and gradually became a big trend. The court and Buddhism have no choice but to acquiesce, but they have a tacit understanding with each other and each has its own duties. ”

Bai Cheng stopped talking, as if he was thinking of something, and said: "The junior brother suddenly remembered that the Flying Star Gate was also built by several generals of the DPRK and China after returning from a hundred battles, and I thought that they were quietly thinking about it, but it turned out that there was still this truth. ”

Qingji Dao said: "If it weren't for that, how could these Jianghu sects be allowed to dominate one side." ”

Bai Cheng took another sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, "Dao Chief, this Dao Lord dispute, I don't know if the Dao Master has a heart?"

Qingji Daoist smiled bitterly: "Tianlongmen Lu Yuanlong and Xuanguitang Lu Jianshan are all children of the Jiangnan Lu family, and Xuanguitang Sun Daohai is the descendant of the Heavenly Master Dao Sun family, how can the poor Dao He De be able to compete with them?"

Bai Chengqi said: "Don't the Dao Elders know that the Tianlong Gate and the Xuangui Hall are merging, and Lu Jianshan and Sun Daohai are both dead?"

When the Qingji Daoist heard this, his eyes flashed, and then he said darkly: "Virtue is not worthy, and it will cause trouble, which is the way to die." ”

Bai Cheng then asked, "In that case, does the Dao Master have the heart to enter the game?"

Qingji Taoist replied: "People are in the bureau, and they can't help themselves"

When Bai Cheng heard this, he was thoughtful.

After thinking for a while, Bai Cheng suddenly asked again: "Can the Daoist Master of Qingji know the technique of talismans?" The junior brother once saw that several Dao Masters here used the cultivation of the body quenching level to perform the means of cultivating the Qi Rank, and he was puzzled, and he hoped that the Dao Master would solve his doubts. ”

Qingji Daoist listened to Bai Cheng's question, and suddenly fell silent.

Seeing what he said, Bai Cheng said, "If it involves the secrets of the Daomen, don't say it." ”

Qingji Daoist hurriedly said: "This matter is not a secret, but if you want to clarify this matter, you have to start from the source, and Poor Dao is thinking about where to start." ”

Bai Cheng said with a smile: "There is nothing to do today, please tell the Taoist in detail." ”

In the world, there is no martial arts, originally only Buddhism and Taoism created by the sages of Buddhism and Taoism, but it is a pity that Buddhism is subtle, Taoism is exquisite, 100,000 people can enter the door, and no one may be able to really enter the Tao.

Therefore, the masters of the two schools sorted out all kinds of cultivation methods one by one and turned them into three orders and nine realms, and from then on, the cultivators can be divided according to the realm, step by step, even if they are people with dull qualifications, they will also achieve something after years of cultivation.

It's just that there are many cultivators, and it is inevitable that their minds are not pure, and some of them are brave and ruthless, and they strip away the understanding of enlightenment and cultivation in Buddhism and Taoism, leaving only the method of how to fight, so that it is more simple and easy, which is the prototype of today's martial arts.

Later, some people couldn't bear the hardships of outsiders, so they returned to Hongchen, and a hundred years later, they passed on martial arts to their children, which was the original Jianghu martial arts.

Until a thousand years ago, there was a great master was born, this great master was born poor, although he had the heart of the seeker, but there was no way to practice, and then by chance, he accidentally got a martial arts secret, this person was full of genius, and within a few years he became the top master of the rivers and lakes, and then fought the world for decades, and finally became the first master of martial arts at that time.

It's just that although his martial arts are high, he is congenitally limited by the path of martial arts, and he can't compete with Buddhism and Taoism after all.

However, this person is a peerless genius after all, twenty years of hard work, in an impossible way, out of a road, to enter the Tao with martial arts, in addition to the two doors of Buddhism, to create a way of martial arts, since then martial arts flourished, widely spread in the world, and there are many martial arts schools in later generations.

Bai Cheng asked curiously, "But I don't know which senior it is?"

Qingji Taoist said respectfully: "This person's real name is no longer available, I only know that people call him Huangshi Gong, and he left three volumes of "Plain Book", which is the first treasure book of martial arts today. ”

Qingji Taoist went on to say that after the rise of the martial arts sect, because the martial arts are easy to get started and powerful, even foolish people can achieve something, and for a while, it was even prosperous, and there were faint signs of overriding the two doors of Buddhism.

After all, the two doors of Buddhism and Taoism are ten thousand years old, and the masters in the door are endless, and some people have created a talisman in order to deal with the lack of combat power, which is very complicated, but the truth is very simple, it is to let the master above the Qi level pass the Dao method, seal the heaven and earth vitality in the rune paper, and cultivate to a lower person holding the talisman, you can use the method to activate the heaven and earth vitality sealed in the talisman, so as to exert various means, but this method still has many shortcomings, it is not easy to make up, so it is not widely used, it is really this time the battle between the Taoist masters is too fierce, and someone has even used this means。

When Bai Cheng heard this, he suddenly asked: "In addition, I have also seen Lu Jianshan holding a white jade, and he can also summon all kinds of fire spirits, I wonder if this method is also a talisman?"

Qingji Daoren's face changed and said: "Jade talisman? This is no longer a simple talisman method, there is already a refining technique mixed in, and only the alchemy master can refine it, well, the Lu family tree has deep roots, if it is said that there is a alchemy master, it is not surprising, but if the virtuous brother encounters this technique, he must not be regarded as an ordinary talisman technique, and he must be extremely careful." ”

Bai Cheng Zhengse asked: "If you have to fight and need to fight, but you don't know how to deal with it?"

Qingji Daoist frowned, thought carefully for a while, and said: "The things made by the God Refining Grandmaster, although the power is great, but when it is used, it is not trivial to consume energy, as long as it can mess with his mind, and then delay the time to fight, it is not without a chance to win, but fighting with the God Refining Grandmaster is the most dangerous thing in the world, although it is only a jade talisman, the virtuous brother must also be extremely careful, and find out the root before he can make a move." ”
