Chapter 299: Internal Strength
The lotus leaf monk came to the rouge forest alone, holding a columbarium altar in his arms, the crowd automatically made a narrow passage for him, bowed down as he passed, and many swordsmen held their weapons, hoping to let the monks open the light.
The anger in Lianye's heart did not diminish at all, but what made him blame himself was that he felt very useful for this surging anger and the admiration of the crowd, and even had a good feeling before returning to the monkhood.
At that time, he was a famous lone thief in the Western Regions, killing people and goods, doing everything, and finally being chased and killed by the enemy had no way to escape, so he had to devote himself to the Four Noble Truths, originally just wanted to temporarily avoid the limelight, but under the influence of his senior brother Lianhua, he sincerely converted to Buddhism.
He is the tiger next to Master Lianhua, although he has the heart of the Buddha, his minions are still there.
The lotus blossom was extinguished, and the minions of the reckless monk gradually got out of control.
He was tormented by the thought of revenge and was on the verge of madness, like a tiger re-attracted by the smell of blood, craving for bites and blood.
Before the dragon king arrived, Lotus Ye walked straight to the table, respectfully placed the ashes altar of his senior brother Lianhua on the side of the stage, sat down cross-legged, and chanted in a low voice as if no one was around.
The fierce and rude monk seemed to have a divine aura on him, and everyone felt that they had heard the inaudible sound of chanting, so the devout believers were the first to kneel, and then more and more people joined in the worship procession, so that the people who were still standing were so disturbed that they seemed to have committed some serious sin, and their knees fell involuntarily.
When Gu Shenwei and his party came to the Rouge Forest, they saw such a scene.
"It's not going to be good. The swordsman Lin Xiaoshan was a little worried, "This is the competition organized by several rich people, Dragon King...... Don't participate. ”
"Go and do your thing. Gu Shenwei would never flee from the battle, and the military advisor Fang Wen reminded him that if he wanted to win the hearts of the people and unite all forces against Jinpeng Castle, he had to be the opposite of King Dubu.
"Above board. He muttered the four strange words in his mind while considering whether there were any loopholes in today's plan.
Lin Xiaoshan bowed down to receive the order and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
The arrival of the dragon king caused a commotion, like a wave, and the kneeling people all stood up one after another, making way for a wider passage, tiptoeing and stretching their necks, trying to see the dragon king's true face.
"It's so young. This was the first impression of many people, and then there were many speculations about the dragon king's sick appearance, "Look at his weak appearance, he can't stop the punch of the monk." ”
Gu Shenwei came to the ring, handed the sword to Chu Nanping, and then walked into the ring.
Lotus Ye got up, clasped his hands together, and recited a few more words to the urn before turning to face the Dragon King, the aura brought by the Dharma was gone, and he was now a tiger with hair standing up.
A well-known veteran swordsman came to the stage and said a few words, once again emphasizing the purpose of "meeting friends with martial arts, stopping at the point", so that the audience was bored to listen to it, they came to enjoy the duel between the monk and the dragon king, if there is no blood, no death, what else to watch?
The same group of people, after worshipping the Dharma, are ready to cheer at the killing.
Someone sent two narrow knives, and the old swordsman loudly announced the start of the competition, and there were enthusiastic applause and cheers from the audience, and the gap between people was suddenly reduced by half.
Lianye took the wooden knife, broke it casually, threw it under the stage, and removed the sleeve of his right arm, revealing half of his muscular knotted shoulder, which attracted a round of applause.
Gu Shenwei was carrying a wooden knife, and he could no longer find the realistic feeling when he practiced before, without the weight and coolness brought by steel, he felt that his martial arts had dropped by more than a star and a half.
The two confronted each other for a while, but no one took the lead, and there were already audiences in the audience who were waiting impatiently and shouting noisily.
"You shouldn't have killed Senior Brother, he is kind to you. Lianye's voice was very low, and no one in the audience could hear it.
Gu Shenwei had already explained that night and didn't plan to repeat it again, so he said, "Do monks also want to kill people to take revenge? Master Lianhua's "Theory of Breaking Attachments" doesn't seem to have any effect on you. ”
"Argument on Persistence" is Lianhua and his younger brother Lianxin came up with a scripture, often recited can weaken the murderous heart, Gu Shenwei has been deeply affected by it, lotus leaves have been recited all year round, the competitive heart still can not be completely removed, Gu Shenwei this sentence is touching the monk's sore spot, can't help but be more angry, roared, attacked.
The duel began, and the excited cries of the spectators shook the snow from the trees.
But they were soon disappointed again.
Many people still remember the contest between the killer Yang Huan and the sacrificial sword Ye Shiro a few years ago, also in winter, the venue included the entire rouge forest, and the audience was cold and cold, but they didn't see any wonderful scenes, and finally the killer walked out with the injured swordsman in his arms.
This time it's an open competition, everyone thought there would be some stories worth spreading, the reckless monk Lotus Ye has proven that he has divine power to protect the body, the dragon king has always killed people without blinking, the two met, should collide with a very hot scene.
But lo and behold, apart from that loud roar, the monk did not show any more powerful moves, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, and his steps were as slow as an old ox, and even a child could easily dodge it.
The dragon king did not take the opportunity to attack, but waited for the battle, and the wooden knife danced quite fast, but he refused to approach the monk one step.
The two circled around the ring a few times, but they didn't make a move, and they didn't even touch the corners of each other's clothes.
"What is this. Finally, someone shouted dissatisfiedly, "Let me go up, and the fight will look better than this." ”
"Hurry up. More people urged in unison.
Gu Shenwei blamed Mustang for all the murderous flag-erection incidents in the past month, although he got rid of the hatred of all the residents of Biyu City, but it also had a side effect: everyone's fear of the True Dragon King was gone.
"Don't run away from the Dragon King!"
"Monk, stop him!"
"Coward. ”
The audience is becoming more and more unkind to the Dragon King.
The dragon king probably heard the call of the audience, and finally took the initiative to meet the enemy, slashing at the monk who was fighting steadily.
Although this knife was unremarkable, the figure of the dragon king was as fast as a black lightning, and few people in the audience could do it, so they applauded.
That's all, everyone's emotions were just mobilized, and they were ruthlessly extinguished, Lotus Ye held the tip of the knife with his left hand, but did not break the wooden knife, and the two of them froze there, not even the slow circle.
"What are they doing?" the question circulated through the crowd.
"Like...... It is a test of internal strength. The answer reached everyone's ears, and the crowd nodded their heads like waves.
They have fought each other and know each other well.
Lotus Ye is afraid of the Dragon King's sword technique, even if the opponent is holding a wooden knife, he has to take every step of the way, and strive to kill the enemy with the fewest tricks.
Gu Shenwei knew that he couldn't fight the monk with his fists and feet, so he decided to fight with his internal strength from the beginning.
The lotus leaf has profound internal strength, and Gu Shenwei has seen it, but he has practiced the Daoless Divine Skill hard, and his internal strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is no longer what it used to be, and he is confident that he can compete with the monk.
The inner breath of the lotus leaf is like a bowl of warm water, without a bit of domineering, but it is endless, and it is introduced into Gu Shenwei's body through the wooden knife, and at the same time, the right hand is flicked, shooting out a stream of internal breath, directly attacking the dragon king's dantian.
Gu Shenwei soon understood that he had underestimated the strength of the monk.
The lotus leaf is actually as frightened as the dragon king, his internal strength was already extremely strong before he became a monk, and he met the Master in the Four Noble Truths, and his internal strength was further improved, and he practiced for decades, but the dragon king was only in his twenties, and he also had such a deep internal strength, which was really beyond his expectations.
The dragon king's internal breath was extremely unique, like countless tiny ice picks, pouring in like a collapsing iceberg, and the lotus leaf soon felt the coldness on his body getting heavier and heavier.
"Look, the monk is going to lose. "Someone in the boring audience finally saw the doorway.
"No, the monk is about to freeze into ice. ”
The fluffy beard of the lotus leaves was covered with a layer of white frost, and the bare arms were trembling slightly.
The audience pointed at them with excitement and surprise, this kind of kung fu to freeze people is unheard of, the dragon king does have two hits, and in the next few days, they have something to say.
Everyone thought that the Dragon King was about to win, but only Gu Shenwei knew that he was about to lose.
The skin of the lotus leaf is frozen, but the vital points in the body are well protected, the internal breath from the wooden knife involves most of Gu Shenwei's energy, and the invisible internal breath that pops out with the monk's right finger is more and more powerful every time, but Gu Shenwei can only resist with dantian.
Like a drop of water piercing a stone, a stone is no match for a drop of water.
The time was almost up, and Gu Shenwei whispered: "The Eight Desolation Finger Power planted by the Great Wilderness Gate, the monk hasn't removed it yet." ”
A few years ago, Lianye and a disciple of the Great Wilderness Sect competed on Gu Shenwei's internal strength, and as a result, he was carelessly planted with the Eight Desolation Finger Force, although there was only a little bit at that time, but it has gradually grown in recent years, and has become a lingering demon for monks.
Lotus Ye's expression changed suddenly, and the internal interest rate was chaotic, Gu Shenwei secretly strengthened the offensive, and continued: "Because of this small injury, the monk was actually held hostage, and even the senior brother was affected......
"Shut up!" Lotus Ye shouted, like a loud thunder rolling over the rouge forest, startling the unknown audience.
The effect of this roar is also terrifying, and the internal interest rate difference of the lotus leaf has become even more serious, although it has become extremely powerful, it is already the end of the strong crossbow.
Gu Shenwei had been waiting for this opportunity, suddenly let go of the wooden knife, dodged behind the monk, and punched several times in succession, all of which hit the back and neck of the lotus leaf.
The lotus leaf spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell down.
Only the dragon king was left in the ring, standing empty-handed.
The competition ended too suddenly, the audience didn't react for a while, and the audience was quiet, and no one spoke.
The silence lasted only for a short time, and with a whoosh, an arrow burst through the air and shot at the dragon king in the ring.
"Kill. With this sound, more arrows were fired into the ring.
Half of the audience were idlers who didn't know martial arts at all, and when something happened to them, they immediately jumped up and down into a mess, and the swordsmen also held the hilt of their swords, and kept their bodies short to observe, preferring to remain neutral if it had nothing to do with them.
Almost at the same time as the first arrow was fired, hundreds of swordsmen wearing long cloaks jumped out from all corners, rushing to different targets, shouting: "Catch the proud building, catch the proud building!"
Chu Nanping and Tie Linglong jumped into the ring at the same time, the young man unsheathed the long sword in one hand, and handed the Wufeng sword to the dragon king in the other.
The first public duel between the Dragon King of the Great Snow Mountain and the Wild Horse of the Proud Building began on this day.
