Chapter 28 (13)
The three of them walked silently for a while, feeling strange to each other, but none of them wanted to take the initiative to break the silence again, and ended up embarrassed. The road is actually very short, and it is only because of the lifeless atmosphere that it seems to be very long. Fortunately, two forks in the road appeared in front of him, one straight forward, and the other extending diagonally to the upper corner, as if leading to the ground. But the two roads are the same except for the different directions of extension. It is difficult to make a decision on a rough look.
Li Yijie had to slow down and wait for the two to follow, and asked stiffly: "Senior sister, Senior Mu has indicated on the lid of the coffin, which way should I go at this time?"
Nangong Xue shook her head and said: "No, the second half of the general idea is to the effect that if you walk along the road, you can find clues about the life-seeking slash." As for which one to follow, it is not mentioned again. β
Li Yijie pondered: "Follow the road...... Follow the road...... This sentence is very ambiguous, could it be that we should ignore the rest of the trail and walk along the main road here?"
Cheng Jiahua said: "Li Mengzhu's words are wrong, who said that a small road is not a road? According to me, whenever there is a road in front of us, we should follow it." Otherwise, it's very likely that the Kill Slash is in a box over there, waiting for us to pick it up, only to see that you deliberately avoided it, so you missed it. Treasures are inherently spiritual, and they also know how to understand interest in general, since you have been put down once, you will never want to be its master in the future. β
Li Yijie thought that this is not bad, the world is often like this, and the things that you can't find in every corner may just happen to be in a conspicuous place that you ignore. Nodding in response, "Okay then." β
A few people turned and walked up. After a few steps, the road was flat again, and it was a small hallway that could accommodate several people standing at the same time. Further inside, there is a more confined space. The full chamber is either concave or convex, and it is very similar to the human skeleton structure.
In the center, that is, the part of the front chest, engraved with several lines of small characters, turning to the right, about the height of the erected fingers after the half-supported arm bend, the half-clenched fist is hollow, there is a narrow and short gap, extending diagonally upward. It's like a person talking and raising his fingers to make a gesture somewhere.
Li Yijie was not interested in this strange place at all, and was about to take a look at the words on the wall, or find clues, but unexpectedly heard a loud "boom", and a stone door suddenly descended and fell in the middle of the road, blocking the passage to the brim. Several people exclaimed in unison, and at the same time rushed to inspect it. But no matter how much it was tried, the stone gate remained unmoved as if it were embedded in the ground, completely blocking the hope of returning the way it came.
Cheng Jiahua scolded: "I've seen a ghost! It's really unlucky!" Li Yijie was at a loss for a while, and when he saw Cheng Jiahua, he got angry, stepped forward, and shouted: "I blame you, look at what kind of ghost proposition you are proposing......?
Cheng Jiahua said angrily: "What stupid thing did you say? Just now, it was clear that you nodded and agreed, 'Okay', could it be that I twisted your neck and forced you in? Even if I chose the wrong path, I tasted the bitter fruit, I deserved it, and no one can blame me." But what are you? Are you going to die with me in vain? It's that you don't think about it, you credulously believe my judgment, and add a sentence of approval to yourself. If you can find the Kill Slash, everything will be fine, and you will not come to praise me for anything, but you will boast about yourself, saying that you are the master of the Li League, who is wise and powerful, and only survives through the ages. Now that you're trapped here, you've turned around and regretted it? The decisions you made are credited to you if you have merit, and you rely on others if you have faults, isn't it? None of them count, do you?"
Li Yijie said angrily: "I knew you were a bunch of nonsense, I shouldn't have believed you!" Cheng Jiahua said: "You only know now? Relying on this one today and that one tomorrow, I am afraid that if you have sinned too much, they will rely on you all once, and it will not be enough. Li Yijie said angrily: "What are you talking about? When will I ......?"
Nangong Xue was shocked for a moment, but immediately calmed down, turned into the inner room to carefully look at the words engraved on the wall, and nodded secretly while concentrating on memorization. When she returned to the stone gate, she saw that the two were still arguing, and it was getting worse. Said helplessly: "Don't quarrel, think about it, anyway, if you can't find your life, what's the use of going back?" Senior Mu made this arrangement, just telling us to make a desperate bet, and swore not to look back if we didn't get the treasure sword. β
Both of them were extremely stubborn, but they had nothing to say to Nangong Xue, and they stopped and looked at her together. Cheng Jiahua said: "Ah Xue, have you seen Mu Qingyan's new clue?"
Nangong Xue said: "Yes, I'm not like the two of you, I only know how to make children lose their temper all day long." The stone wall is engraved with the mantra for cultivating internal strength, as well as how to control the true qi rotation when you take out your fingers......" Li Yijie said: "If you are stuck here, you can't go out, and it is useless to practice martial arts." β
Nangong Xue said: "Listen to me first, it is naturally not carved for no reason." There are a few other lines of small characters at the bottom, which teach people to use this method first, and then hit them along the direction of the right finger...... The shape over there is carved into a finger, which is not an idle ornament, so you will have to use your finger strength to make it when the time comes...... Hit the outside wall to get a clue. Senior brother, among the several of us, only you have the strongest internal strength, so this task can only be entrusted to you. I know that your injuries have not yet healed, which is inevitably a bit reluctant, but I can't wait for the death. β
Li Yijie interrupted: "It's okay. He cast a smug glance at Cheng Jiahua, and said in his heart: "Did you hear it, if this matter is done, it is all my credit that you Cheng Jiahua can get out of trouble." Turning his head to stare at the "finger", he looked at it for a moment, and said strangely: "Xue'er, there is no hole here, how to ...... it"
Nangong Xue said: "That's to ask you to break through the wall with your finger power, and the remaining momentum must not be exhausted before you can hit the wall." At the same time, the force must also be accurate, and it can only pass straight and straight, and must not damage both sides, otherwise even this place will collapse. I think maybe it's based on the mantra taught on the wall. The successor of the slash must be a young man with strong martial arts. Taking a step back, if you can learn now, you will finally be talented and intelligent, and you will be malleable. β
Li Yijie exclaimed: "Break through the wall with your fingers? Penetrate this stone wall?" Nangong Xue said softly: "Senior brother, your internal strength gathers in Huashan and Wudangγ...... Two...... The director of the three families, that is very remarkable, there are few people in the world who can compare with you, if you can't do it, who else can? It's just that your internal strength comes suddenly, maybe you can't use it skillfully, look at the annotations on the stone wall, I think it should be helpful. We all believe in you, don't you believe in yourself?"
Li Yijie will never be a good student. He had practiced internal skills in accordance with the methods contained in the secret instructions, and he had already achieved considerable success. However, Demon Kung Fu never pays attention to the long flow of water, and usually goes straight to the end, and the effect is miraculous and the foundation is unstable. Therefore, Li Yijie has only practiced for a few days, and he can be a master at the hero conference. But his own internal strength and this sudden huge power could not be integrated, and the two often collided in the body, and the body gradually could not bear it.
The "Heavenly Demon Dafa" practiced by the people in the Demon Sect has the effect of restraining the collision, but it is to break the huge momentum into several pieces and forcibly suppress it. This restless internal subsidence is usually peaceful, and whenever you use force with others, a little use of internal strength, the damage will become more serious.
Li Yijie rarely fights with people, and there is nothing wrong with him, until when he rescued Shen Shiyun in the palace, he was slapped in the dark night, completely muddying his true anger. Later, although he was healed by the crossing of qi and had no major problems in normal activities, he was officially told not to affect the internal breath, otherwise his life would not be saved. The root cause of this disease has been dragging on for six years, and it has never been good.
He sometimes sat alone and analyzed, and he knew very well: as long as he still had the internal strength of the Demon Sect in his body, his injuries would not be completely healed, just like carrying a bag of explosives, he would be able to blow him to pieces at any time. But he didn't want to worry Nangong Xue, he always concealed it vaguely in front of her, and even worked harder when he used force, desperately trying to pretend to be a deputy dragon and a tiger, so as to reassure her. I often toss and turn in the middle of the night because of this, tossing and turning in bed, my hands tightly gripping my chest and clothes, and sweat soaking a full sheet.
Originally, it was fine, he pretended to be very similar, Nangong Xue never had any suspicions. However, the trouble also came from this, she didn't know the truth, and if she provoked the cause of internal injuries at this time, it would inevitably seem far-fetched, and it would be more like a move to shirk responsibility. Cheng Jiahua doesn't have to care how he laughs, but what he values is Nangong Xue's vision, and he must not let her think that her senior brother is a cowardly and incompetent person. That mantra is the same as nothing to him, and even if it is a strong finger force, it will also be strong to mobilize true qi, if you follow it all, it will push you a big step towards the ghost gate.
The arm lifted with difficulty, and a shadow suddenly passed through his heart, and he said to himself: "There are no existing holes in that place, and the outer walls are intact, so it can be seen that no one has ever succeeded in this order before." If I can come here, I think that my skills are extraordinary, and so many masters have failed, how can I succeed? Am I better than others? How is that possible? How is it possible?"
Nangong Xue said with relief: "Maybe the people who come in are some tomb robbers, and they can't be considered masters, how can they compare with you?" Li Yijie could only smile bitterly, and said in his heart: "Don't you know, there are also masters in the Touching Gold Captain, and your senior brother looks like this, I'm afraid that even they are inferior." β
Cheng Jiahua suddenly said: "No, you think, if there are predecessors who fail here and die alive, they should always leave their bones, but why are there no traces? Who put those few highly poisonous treasures back into the coffin as they were? I dare not be ashamed to say that we are the first to arrive here." β
Nangong Xue's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Yes, senior brother, have you heard? This is not something that you have failed to do before, but it is no longer as difficult as you thought before, right? Secretly glanced at Cheng Jiahua, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for you, we would never have thought of opening the coffin...... Senior Mu was able to engrave a book on the lid of the coffin, perhaps also acquiescing to this trip. She is a descendant who wants to kill her, not only has outstanding conduct and first-class martial arts, but also has the courage to break the secular etiquette, dare to be the first in the world, and have the courage to do what ordinary people do not do. β
Li Yijie didn't refuse, he knew in his heart that it was impossible, but he had to perform his exercises in accordance with the law in a decent manner, sink his anger, and then slowly press the mantra carved on the wall, and turn to his right arm. Feel a stream of true qi through the shoulder well acupoint, all the way down, through the wrist column, through the canal, and to the Taiyuan acupoint, and then continue to go deep into the palm, through the fish, around the Shaoshang, gathered in the middle of the two fingers, the arm bend and the shoulder height, the fingertips against the left shoulder, the internal force through, slammed towards the gap.
When he made this whole set of movements, his whole body was like ice and fire, and the internal force was once again like a flood, rushing wildly in his body, so that he was a little reluctant to even stand. The chest was like a sharp stone stuffed with it, and the right arm was as soft as cotton wool, or it had been tortured to the point where it had lost all its strength, but the blow that had been forced out with great difficulty was completely powerless.
Not to mention that he couldn't open a hole in the stone wall, and he couldn't even bounce back after the hit, because the effect was too light, and all of them dissipated in an instant after the hit. This result was expected, but he did not fake it in the slightest, and a large expanse of Venus appeared in front of him, staggering, and almost unsteady on his feet.
