Chapter 378: Martial Arts
The High Priest of the Flower Soul told an absurd story about the stone castle in which the history was completely different from that known to Shangguan Ru and the Lotus Girl, and in order to convince them, the High Priest asked his disciples to bring stacks of books and point them out to the two of them, line by line.
There is no concept of time in the ancient books, and it can only be judged by the degree of damage of the book itself that it was written many years ago.
At that time, Biyu City was created, with a population of only tens of thousands, and the north and south cities were not completely separated.
The name of the peak is Xuandu Peak, and the stone castle on the peak is called the Fort of Death, and the owner's surname is Feng, and he is called the "Holy King".
The Holy King was outstanding in martial arts, recruited a wide range of disciples, and established three major inner halls according to the characteristics of each person, namely the Shengri Hall, the Xiaoyue Hall and the Lone Star Hall.
The disciples of the Sheng Sun Hall are good at cooperating with each other and fighting collectively, the Xiaoyue Hall specializes in medicine and secret arts, and the Lone Star Hall concentrates the best disciples, who never cooperate with others and go it alone to carry out the most difficult and secret tasks.
Just when the Afterlife Fort was in full swing, a traitor appeared inside.
Thinking that they had learned all the martial arts from their masters, the three inner halls began to become proud, and they did not want to be subordinate to others anymore, so they joined forces to rebel against the Holy King.
They overestimated their strength, and the Holy King intervened, and the traitors were immediately defeated and begged for mercy.
The Holy King forgave the disciples for a moment of obsessiveness, and did not kill them all, but his kindness only came in exchange for a more serious betrayal, Xiaoyue Hall used secret techniques to capture the loyalty of the Holy King's attendants, and learned the date of the Holy King's dispersion, Sheng Ritang relied on the numerical advantage to besiege the guards loyal to the Holy King, and the Lone Star Hall took the opportunity to kill the secret room and was about to commit the crime of killing the lord.
The Saint King's martial arts are unfathomable, and even when he is scattered, he can still easily eliminate traitors.
He killed many people, to the horror of the survivors, but he suddenly got tired of it, looked at his disciples who were trembling on the ground, and said, "You are only ants, you can never bring down an elephant, but an elephant can trample you all with one kick, but it is meaningless to the elephant, his strength will not increase because of your loyalty, nor will it decrease because of your betrayal." As punishment, you will forever lose the opportunity to be strong. ”
So, the Holy King left Xuandu Peak and voluntarily gave up the Castle of Death to the cowardly and incompetent traitors, knowing that once these useless disciples lost his protection and could not hold the stone castle, they would soon become slaves of their former enemies.
The Holy King came to the Land of Xiangji, passed down from generation to generation, his prophecy came true, the three inner halls perished one after another, and the betrayers always called the name of the Holy King in their dying moments, and regretted it.
"Over. The High Priest closed the book, "My surname is Feng, and I am the eleventh generation of the Holy King, and he is my successor, the twelfth generation of the Holy King, and the sixth generation of the High Priest of the Flower Soul. ”
"He" was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy with his chin propped up, obsessively listening to the stories told by the high priest, but he could not understand the original dialect, but he knew the contents of those books by heart, and the high priest knew which passage he was talking about when he moved his fingers.
Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl looked at each other, this story is said to be made up, but there are a lot of real content about the stone castle, outsiders can't know it, and they won't be interested, but if it's true, there are too many unreasonable places, even people who don't know anything about the stone castle can find many loopholes.
Sheng Ri Tang is obviously the later Jinpeng Castle, although Xiaoyue Hall is in exile, but it has not perished, only the name of Lone Star Hall The two girls have never heard of it, after a little pondering, guess that those blue-faced assassins are the relics of Lone Star Hall.
The lotus girl didn't bother to argue, Shangguan Ru couldn't bear to argue, but she still asked, "High priest, are you training disciples here, are you preparing to recapture the stone castle one day?"
The High Priest didn't seem to understand what the other party meant, and then showed a look of surprise, "Didn't you listen to me? The Holy King voluntarily gave up the Castle of Death, so that the betrayers knew that we would not go back without the protection of the Holy King. I am training my disciples here to protect the country of incense, and they are fortunate enough to receive the guidance of the descendants of the Holy King. ”
Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl glanced at each other, and they were very pitiful to this high priest, he obviously didn't know anything about the real situation in the Western Regions, he believed in every word in the ancient books, lived in an illusory world of half-truths and half-truths, and was very satisfied with everything.
There is nothing more cruel than breaking someone's illusions, Shangguan Ru decided never to mention Jinpeng Castle, and the Lotus Girl didn't care about it, she was more worried about Old Man Mu, his skills were recovering every day, and in a few days, no one would be his opponent.
Although the high priest was pedantic and simple, he once pointed out the secret of the Five Cave Fist, and the lotus girl was more interested in this matter.
The high priest did not hide his secrets at all, and with great interest asked his disciples to bring more books, find out the Five Hole Fists, and read them out word by word.
The lotus girl was a little disappointed, it turned out that this was not a real boxing book, but an analysis of the five-hole boxing made by a certain holy king based on what he had seen and heard, which specifically mentioned that the earth fist is the highest stage of the five-hole, and there will be no more loopholes after practice.
The high priest also wanted to explain the Great Jue Sword Sutra to the Lotus Girl, but the Lotus Girl politely refused, just borrowed the relevant books and glanced at them, which also had no specific content of the scriptures, just generalized, dividing the practitioners into several realms, not like true insight, but like a sour Confucian who had never seen the true scriptures was boasting.
Among the piles of books, only a few of them are real martial arts charts, and the Dutch girl can't look at any of them.
Those children, like the Master, spent most of their energy on memorizing words, and when they talked about it, they were no different from ordinary teenagers.
The strength of the defenders cultivated in this way can be imagined.
But the high priest and the disciples had one thing in common, that is, they were extremely obedient, and in the eyes of the two women, even to the point of impatient flattery, any request they made would be rushed to do it, and they were as zealous as a pack of dogs bent on pleasing their masters, and did not care where they came from or what their purpose was.
Jinpeng Castle has also been focusing on cultivating obedient minions, but it has never achieved this effect.
If the high priest is really the heir of the Afterlife Castle, the Holy King will be overkill, and the disciples will never betray, but they are useless.
This is a group of people who are not threatening, and Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl's thoughts have turned to Old Man Mu.
Old Man Mu was afraid of the high priest, so he gave up the practice of head-on challenges and switched to a more skilled sneak attack.
On the night of the duel with the Duel, he quietly approached the High Priest's quarters and was stabbed at the door by a sword from the Dutch.
Old Man Mu had already prepared, so he easily dodged, but he was colliding into Shangguan Ru's hands.
What made him most angry was that Shangguan Ru actually cast a dark incense floating shadow, grabbed the necessary way, and pointed out the Seven Turns and Seven Tricks Centering Finger, although this finger did not kill him, it was enough for him to suffer internal injuries, and he did not have the strength to fight back for a long time.
Old Man Mu barely dodged, extremely embarrassed.
The lotus girl caught up, and the two women joined forces to besiege it, preventing the old man from escaping again.
Old man Mu regretted it, he shouldn't have run out when his skills had not fully recovered, "Shangguan Ru, you are so ruthless, use the martial arts I taught to deal with me, ungrateful, femme fatale, and the most poisonous woman's heart......"
Old Man Mu refused to stop, but in the end it was another mouth that saved him from his predicament.
The high priest heard the sound outside, and asked the disciple to carry himself to the door, and commented while watching, "The short man is going to be defeated, he doesn't dare to use the five-hole fist, and now he is using the tiger-shaped palm of the Yuqing faction and ...... Xiaoyuetang's seven-turn flower picker, combining these two sets of martial arts, he dares to think and dare to do it, but the tiger-shaped palm is yin, and the seven-turn flower picker is also yin, more than enough defense, insufficient offense, is he also a woman?"
The old man shouted and wanted to rush over several times to teach this paralyzed man who was talking nonsense, but he was always blocked by Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl.
The high priest was impartial, and then said to the other two, "This girl is still the Great Jue Sword Sutra, hey, no, it is mixed with Xiaoyue Hall's Seven Turns Fluttering Sword, well, it is very smart, this can reduce the chance of sword counterattack, but the power has decreased a little." Another girl...... The martial arts are so strange, it seems to be the dark fragrance of the Yuqing faction, but the kung fu in the hands is not easy to recognize, like Xiaoyuetang, and like the Yuqing faction. ”
"Well, the three of you are all good at martial arts, like fellow disciples, why are you so ruthless?"
Old man Mu was trapped by the two girls, he couldn't run if he wanted to, he couldn't beat if he wanted to, and when he heard the cool words of the high priest, he couldn't fight in one place, "Dead paralyzed, let you still be paralyzed in the next life, you know everything, why don't you tell me how I can defeat these two people, even if I can't be defeated, I can run." ”
"They are very good, it's a little difficult for you to defeat them, it's easy to escape. ”
Before Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl could stop it, the high priest had already said his thoughts, "I don't know if you will be the spirit bird flying talisman of the Yuqing Sect......
Old man Mu secretly scolded himself for being stupid, the Spirit Sparrow Flying Charm and the Dark Fragrance Floating Shadow are both life-saving skills of the Yuqing faction, he naturally learned it, but he killed people everywhere in the first ten years, and after more than ten years, he hid and practiced the Seven Turns Great Returning Gong, and rarely used these two sets of light skills, and he didn't even think about it for a while at the critical moment, and he had to be reminded by the spectators.
The dark incense floating shadow is suitable for flat land, but the Spirit Sparrow Flying Talisman is high and high.
Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl didn't understand this set of light skills, and when they understood, the old man Mu had already jumped on the roof, really like a bird, flying high, and landed on a nearby flower and tree, although his footing was unstable, but it was enough to jump to another flower and tree with his strength.
The two girls followed closely on the ground, and Shangguan Ru suddenly had an idea, wouldn't it be easy to leave the Flower Soul Forest by jumping on a high place like Old Man Mu?
As soon as this thought flashed, Old Man Mu actually fell from the air, fell heavily to the ground, and screamed, "Evil Gate." ”
There is more than this one thing, Shangguan is like a stumbling person, and he almost fell, and then he felt that the dantian was empty, and the true qi seemed to be gone, and then he smelled a faint fragrance in his nose, which was different from the fragrance of the flowers around her, which made her dizzy, and her eyes closed involuntarily.
The lotus girl held on for a little longer, so she saw twenty or thirty robed men coming out from behind the flowers, ropes in hand, approaching cautiously.
