Chapter 1 The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings
In the middle of summer, the sun is shining, the cicadas are chirping, and the soft grass is gently swaying in the wind in the hot summer, and the leaves rustle against the trees.
The trees here were cut down into an empty meadow, and in the middle of the empty meadow, only a crooked old tree was left because it did not become a tree. The twisted trunk looks like a hunchbacked old man, and there is a unique vicissitudes of beauty.
The canopy of the trees is dense and impermeable, making it particularly vibrant.
Looking down the gray trunk of the tree, through the layers of branches and leaves, in the middle of this huge tree, there was a young man hiding in it, he leaned on the thick branches, closed his eyes, his hands drooped down, his mouth came from time to time intermittent babbling, and his eyebrows stretched like two swords also rose and fell with the whispering sound. It seems that in the dream he is talking to someone, slightly emotional, and the rich expression on his face says it all.
It can be seen that the boy is sleeping soundly.
However, this place is also a good place to rest in the shade, the weather is clear, the sun is hot outside the bushes, but there is a cool among the trees, the cicadas are far and near, listen quietly, such as a song of sleep, and soon let people fall asleep. It's just that the thick branches are a little stiff under him, but this doesn't seem to stop Shi Yu from having a good dream on it.
The boy's name is Shi Yu, although there is a rain word in his name, the boy acts like the wind, as wild and free as the wind, unrestrained.
He is a frequent visitor to this old tree, I don't know when, Shi Yu likes to take advantage of the noon to come here to take a nap, probably because of the light skills since childhood, Shi Yu likes to spend his idle time on the tree.
The topography is also excellent – a flat plateau with lush grass and flowers, and from the trees you can see not only the quaint village in front of you, but also the lush rice paddies in front of it.
Surrounded by primeval forests, the village is like an island, isolated from the outside world, and at the edge of the village, winding paths connect the village to the woods from all sides.
The village in front of it is where Shi Yu has lived for fifteen years, and the small building of Shi Yu's family is at the easternmost end of the village, hidden in a few old trees.
This village has a history of more than 600 years since the ancestors first came here to escape the war and settled here to build a village.
In the past 600 years, the village has slowly expanded from a few idle families to hundreds of households today.
Every few decades, someone will break into Yinquan Village, and after getting used to living here, they do not leave, but choose to put their home here and live a life of seclusion.
Yinquan Village is located in the deep mountains and old forests, and is not noticed by outsiders, and the people who come to Guquan Village are not idle people, at least, without a unique martial arts, or a strange encounter, it is impossible to pass through the primeval forest that stretches for thousands of miles, and arrive here.
The first half of their lives, the first half of their lives in the rivers and lakes through the bloody wind and rain, involved in the rivers and lakes, the second half of their lives, perhaps to see through the glitz of the world, in the silent disappearance of the world's sight, travel around the world, visit the mountains and rivers, looking for a peaceful habitat, by chance came to the drinking spring village, or, is somewhere to hear the wind, learned about the drinking spring village one or two, so they looked for the remaining information, all the way to the village.
All in all, heroes from all walks of life have gathered here, not for Huashan, but to enjoy the quiet and leisurely pastoral life in the second half of their lives, which also adds a bit of legend to the ordinary Guquan Village.
The martial arts of various sects in the martial arts have also been able to meet here.
Fist technique, palm technique, leg technique, body technique...... Most of the martial arts of each family in the village are different, for example, the Zhang family practices Zhangjiaquan, the Li family cultivates Li Jiazhang, and the martial arts they practice used to have a majestic name, such as Zhangfa, which used to be called Paiyun Palm, Piercing Cloud Palm, or Iron Sand Palm, Mixed Yuan Palm...... , varies. Most of them are the famous skills of their former masters, the ancestors who lived in seclusion in Yinquan Village, walking the rivers and lakes.
However, now, with the retirement of the master of martial arts, the original name of martial arts has also been hidden, and it has gradually been forgotten by later generations, and it is replaced by a surname.
In the eyes of the people in the village, there is no distinction between high and low martial arts, only the degree of cultivation.
Every martial art is originated from the fight and fighting, inevitably with the color of fighting fiercely, the martial arts of each sect and faction converge in one place, then there is a sense of a hundred schools of thought, and the desire to avoid the world is not in line with the original wish, so it is changed to the surname, so that there is both distinction and harmony.
In fact, in the final analysis, the name of martial arts is just a code name, and more important is the development and inheritance of martial arts itself
In the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, the family is a relatively stable social relationship with blood as the link and the family as the unit, and the family often has its own unique family martial arts, and some families even rely on a family martial arts to make the world jealous and become a famous family in the martial arts.
In the martial arts, there is a family that seems to be very mysterious, their clansmen are often dressed in white clothes, like a weak scholar, but people can not be disguised, they often hide sharp weapons in the dark, take the enemy's head in an instant, the world is called a life-killing scholar. Their weapon is a judge's life-killing pen hidden in the sleeve, which is not only a weapon, but also a unique tool in their family for recording the secret history of martial arts, this family is good at collecting news about the rivers and lakes, and is famous for the inside story of the rivers and lakes, which is recorded in a book called "The Secret Biography of Martial Arts", and uses the secrets in this book to do business with the people who need it, so the people of this family are called Baixiaosheng by the people in the rivers and lakes.
Fortunately, the people of this family have not set foot in Yinquan Village, otherwise, if the news of the reappearance of people who had originally disappeared in the rivers and lakes will definitely cause an uproar in the martial arts, and all forces will come one after another, disturbing the leisure of the people in the village.
In the village, with the intermarriage of two families with different surnames and the learning between master and apprentice, one person may be able to help several martial arts in one, but because the Shi family has not been in Yinquan Village for a long time, so far, the only cultivator of light gong is the Shi family.
Shi Yu is the third generation of the Shi family's light work in Yinquan Village, in other words, the Shi family moved here from Shi Yu's grandfather's generation, if you list a chronological table of moving to Yinquan Village, the Shi family ranks second to last in the table.
Shi Yu didn't know much about the history of the village, and he was not very interested, preferring to find a place to sleep better than to learn about it.
At this time, Shi Yu was sleeping leisurely in the shade of the trees, and white clouds were floating in the sky, and everything seemed so peaceful.
However, at this moment, a dark cloud, overwhelmingly rolled from the south, extremely fast, at first it was just a black spot, slowly getting bigger and bigger, gradually covering half of the sky, covering the sun, where the dark clouds passed, the woods were bright and dark divided into two boundaries.
The wind gradually became stronger, slapping the houses of Guquan Village, the flags planted on the roof or in the courtyard shook violently, Shi Yu was woken up by the sounds around him, sat up quickly, rubbed his eyes, looked around, and was a little surprised that the sky was already so dark.
The whirring wind outside was mixed, and Shi Yu realized that the heavy rain was coming, and looking out through the gaps in the branches and leaves, the sky was dark and oppressive in the distance.
"It's going to rain heavily. Shi Yu frowned lightly and muttered to himself, and then deftly turned down a few branches. Before the heavy rain arrived, I had to hurry home.
Aside from the space wrapped in leaves, Shi Yu looked down, and there was still a distance of two or three zhang from the bottom of the tree, which was a familiar height for Shi Yu.
Jumping down, Ren Feng swept by his ears, adjusted his posture in the air, and in the blink of an eye, he was close to the ground, seeing that he was about to land, Shi Yu's right leg also took advantage of the situation to poke out, the toes hit the ground first, and then gradually transmitted to the heels, and then the body that had already landed catapulted out, like a butterfly that suddenly flapped its wings and took off in the air to draw a beautiful arc.
Light Gong is different from other martial arts, other martial arts are completely used for combat, out of the need for offensive and defensive conversion, sometimes often to make some extremely ugly movements, but light Gong is different, the person who performs the body posture is more than beautiful, the speed is more than fast, you can see the person's skills.
This trick is not difficult to learn, the difficulty is to fall from such a high height and then rush out, the connection is very perfect, even an adult who can generally do light work is difficult to do, now only fifteen years old rain can be perfectly displayed, talent is not amazing.
Facing the strong wind, the low bushes and raised rocks were his springboard, Shi Yu swept towards the village not far away like an eagle striking the sky, Shi Yu's house was in the easternmost part of the village, and he could reach it by following the path.
In the midst of the changing wind and clouds, Shi Yu has returned to the village, but Shi Yu does not really want to go home, he has found a place to take shelter from the rain.
Looking up, in front of Shi Yu, there is a two-story attic, on the edge of the fence on the second floor, a middle-aged man is standing there straight, the position is just facing Shi Yu, he has his hands behind his back, he raised his head lightly, his expression is indifferent, his eyes are sharp, and his gaze seems to be able to penetrate the dark clouds and see something in the clouds that others can't see.
A narrow scar cut down the right cheek, making the originally handsome and serious face now look quite vicissitudes. The wind lifted his gray coat, and the two long hairs on his sideburns fluttered up and down behind him under the action of the wind, but he did not react to them, and stood there like a statue.
"Hmph", Shi Yu chuckled triumphantly, a little smug thinking about something.
Then he moved briskly to the side of the house, lightly toeed, jumped on the roof in three steps, approached lightly, ready to suddenly appear from behind, give him an unexpected surprise, and by the way, he also sneak attacked, although he knew that he was unlikely to succeed in the sneak attack, but such an opportunity, he still couldn't help but want to try.
