Chapter 159: Going along with it is everything, and going against it is sacred

"However, your master taught you the palm and fingering, and the master can still give you some guidance!" Luo Sigong stroked his beard and smiled.

Gao Jie hurriedly asked: "I think there are many similarities between the master's boxing technique and the palm technique passed on to me by the master, could it be ......?"

Luo Sigong didn't wait for him to finish, he laughed and said, "Sure enough, it's a clever ghost!That's right, your palm fingering is all the martial arts of your own sect, but your master has changed his face!" After speaking, he told the origin of the Emei Sword Immortal Sect.

Gao Jie suddenly realized: "It turns out that the Wuwei Palm and Flower Finger I learned are actually Taoist martial arts, not Buddhist skills!"

Luo Sigong nodded and said: "Mount Emei is monopolized by Buddhist forces, and the original Daomen are basically annexed, only my Emei Sword Immortal Sect survives and takes refuge in the depths of Leshan, so that the inheritance can be preserved." Your master and ancestor explained when I and your master came out of the school that we should not easily leak the hidden treasures of this sect, so we changed the martial arts of this sect slightly, so we have your Wuwei Palm, Flower Finger and Masculine Sun Fist. ”

Gao Jie didn't expect there to be such an allusion here, and he was amazed. Luo Yangxing knew about it early, so he was not surprised.

Luo Sigong looked at Ji Longfeng and said with a smile: "Long Feng's master is a master in the world, and it is not rare for me to send these martial arts in his eyes, so there is no problem for Long Feng to listen to them together, if it can help your martial arts realm, even if your master owes me a favor!"

Ji Longfeng blinked his small eyes, all he thought about was the origin of his nameless old master, and he didn't say anything.

Luo Sigong continued to say to Gao Jie: "I look at the palm and fingering techniques you use, it seems that they are mainly based on feminine power, more than ingenious, and not strong enough. After thinking about it all night yesterday, I realized the reason, your master has calculated that you will meet the old man when you come to Beijing, if I don't take the initiative to help you improve your martial arts, I'm afraid she won't be able to spare the old man!"

When Gao Jie and Ji Longfeng heard this, they looked at each other, Luo Yangxing's eyes were complicated, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Luo Sigong immediately elaborated on the exercises of the Emei Sword Immortal School: " Mortals are born and die, the true water flows down to give birth to people, fathers and sons, children and grandchildren, is an adult life, is a good life, is born and acquired, for a lifetime two also; ”

After some telling, Luo Sigong finally said in a deep voice: ""If you go with it, you will be holy, and if you go against it, you will be sacred." The internal strength of my Emei Sword Immortal Sect is to go against the sky, condense the true yang and true water to become the true element, use the true yuan to stop leakage, and finally cultivate into the body of mixed yuan!"

"If you go along with it, if you go against it, you will be sacred!" Gao Jie and Ji Longfeng are both outstanding sons of heaven, and when they heard this, they couldn't help but chew on the deep meaning repeatedly and benefited a lot. Not only the martial arts of the Emei Sword Immortal School, but even the White Lotus Nine Divine Skills that Gao Jie majored in are the same, taking the path of retrograde, ordinary people's brain power is constrained by the physical condition, less than ten percent of the development is used, and most of the brain resources are wasted in a muddy life, the White Lotus Nine Lives is to break the physical limit, and to a greater extent the magical ability of the brain is developed, which cannot but be said to be a move against the sky; 。

Gao Jie has an extraordinary understanding, his eyes are shining, and he said word by word: "On the way to martial arts, if you want to reach the top, you must not only have exquisite moves and magical exercises, but more importantly, you must have the courage and courage to go against the sky and against the current, think what ordinary people dare not think, endure what ordinary people can't endure, and become what ordinary people can't do!"

Luo Sigong, Luo Yangxing, and Ji Longfeng stared at him, as if they saw a future king of martial arts, who was transforming into a grown.

After lunch, Gao Jie and Luo Sigong entered the palace together, while Ji Longfeng and Wukong stayed in Luo's mansion to learn skills with Luo Yangxing and digest the content that Luo Sigong ordered this morning.

Under the guidance of the little eunuch, Luo Sigong and Gao Jie entered the palace. The palace is majestic and magnificent, covering a vast area, with countless pavilions and palace rooms, although Gao Jie visited the Forbidden City in Beijing in his previous life, but once again immersed in it, the feeling is even more different.

According to legend, when the Forbidden City was built, Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, planned to set the total number of palaces at 10,000, but on the night of the fifth day after he passed down the holy decree, he suddenly had a dream that the Jade Emperor summoned him to the Heavenly Palace and asked why the number of palaces in the Forbidden City exceeded the number of 10,000 in the Heavenly Palace. After Emperor Yongle woke up, he hurriedly summoned Liu Bowen into the palace and told the dream. Liu Bowen was also stunned when he heard this: "The Jade Emperor can't be provoked! His Heavenly Palace is 10,000 rooms, so let's build it 9,999 and a half." It does not lose the face of the Jade Emperor, but also does not lose the grandeur of the royal family and the dignity of the Son of Heaven!" At present, the total number of rooms in the palace, palace, hall, building, zhai, xuan, pavilion and the total number of rooms in the Forbidden City is 8,707, so where is the legendary half room? When you go to the arrow pavilion outside the Jingyun Gate and look south, you will see a two-story green glazed tile building surrounded by the courtyard wall, which is the Wenyuan Pavilion where the four libraries of the whole book were stored in the Qing Dynasty. Just to the west of the attic, there is a unique feature, it is different from ordinary pavilions, the two pillars are not more than a zhang apart, but only about five feet between the two green pillars, and half of the Forbidden City is here.

The place where the Emperor of the Apocalypse summoned them was in the imperial garden on the middle road of the palace, which was not too far, Luo Sigong and Gao Jie were both martial arts practitioners, and they didn't feel hard, but the little eunuch who led the way was out of breath and sweating profusely. After a full two quarters of an hour, they arrived at their destination, the Rakushisai (now known as Yangxingzhai) in the Imperial Garden.

Le Zhi Zhai is a two-storey pavilion-style structure, with seven rooms, and the seat is west and east. Yellow glazed tile corner of the top of the palace, the upper floor of the front eaves out of the corridor, the lower floor of the east open room, the second room and the north and south corner of the three rooms are all the support of the window, the front of the stacked stone embrace, the bamboo forest surrounds, very quiet.

Le Zhi Zhai was originally an attic for the emperors to play, play chess, and read, but at this time, there was a sound of carved wood, as if it was being renovated inside.

Soon after the little eunuch went in to report, he heard Wei Zhongxian's voice come out: "Xuanjin Yiwei commanded Luo Sigong and Zhongyong Hou Gaojie to meet him!"

The two bowed their heads and entered the main hall, and were about to bow to the shrine, when they heard the Emperor of the Apocalypse say: "The two Aiqing don't need to be polite, there are no outsiders here!"

After thanking the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Gao Jie raised his eyes and looked at it, and was suddenly a little stunned, because this main hall was simply a carpenter's workshop, which was full of knives, saws, axes, chisels, wooden planks and beams, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse was dressed in cloth clothes, and he was taking the towel handed by Wei Zhongxian to wipe his sweat.

Gao Jie had seen historical records in his previous life that Zhu Youxiao had a talent for being a carpenter since he was a child, and he was not only often addicted to various carpentry jobs such as knives, saws, axes, chiseling, paint, etc., but also was skilled, which often made those royal craftsmen have to admire. It is said that all the woodworking tools he has seen, from small living utensils to large pavilions and pavilions, can be made. All carpenter work such as knives, saws, axes, chisels, and danqing lacquer kneading, he has to operate them himself, and he never gets tired of it, and even forgets to sleep and eat. The literature contains its "day and night creation", "every time you create a sense of pride, that is, the meal and drink can be forgotten, and the cold and summer are not awake".

According to historical records, Zhu Youxiao made many things exquisite, the bed he built changed the heavy characteristics of the wooden bed in the Ming Dynasty, not only extremely light, but also the bed can be folded, easy to play and carry; he made a lot of small wooden figures, different forms, lifelike, put on the market for sale, actually bought by the public with a lot of money; he made ten wooden screens for the lantern, the carving is fine, the plum bird fights for spring, the image is realistic, "the price is 100,000 yuan"; In addition to the general carpentry work, Zhu Youxiao was also keen on architecture, according to the literature: Zhu Youxiao personally built a small palace in the courtyard, the form imitates the Qianqing Palace, no more than three or four feet high, but the twists and turns are subtle, small and exquisite, ingenious. He also made an agarwood rockery, a pond and a forest pavilion, which was meticulously carved, which was a must-have at that time. He also participated in the reconstruction of the three major halls of the palace at that time, and when he was happy, he often took off his coat, no different from ordinary craftsmen.

Gao Jie was in a daze, when he heard Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse laugh and said, "Xiaojie, you haven't seen my craftsmanship yet! Come and take a look!" After speaking, he pushed open the door of the next room and took the lead and walked in. Gao Jie glanced at Wei Zhongxian, saw him smile bitterly, motioned for himself to go in, and walked into the side room.

This side room is simply a furniture store, all kinds of tables, chairs, benches, beds and counters, dazzling, and exquisite craftsmanship, there is a strong smell of paint in the air, it can be seen that this is the latest work of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. Gao Jie saw so many exquisite furniture, and he had long forgotten that Zhu Youxiao was an emperor, and couldn't help but praise: "Exquisite, it's simply high-end and high-grade!"

"What is high-end atmosphere?" Emperor Tianqi didn't understand.

"This is my hometown dialect, which means that these works cannot be made by ordinary people, they must be completed by the best craftsmen, and the furniture on the street is not comparable to this place!" Gao Jie explained.

He didn't make a fool of himself, these are all heartfelt words, these furniture made by the Emperor of the Apocalypse himself are not only exquisitely made, reasonable in structure, but also smooth in lacquer, like a mirror, which is indeed of a very high standard.

Emperor Apocalypse had heard a lot of words praising his craftsmanship, and it was the first time he had heard such a special praise as Gao Jie, so he couldn't help laughing and said to Gao Jie: "Xiao Jie, what do you like, I will give it to you!"

Wei Zhongxian said to Gao Jie: "Congratulations to the Marquis of Zhongyong, the civil and military officials want to get a piece of the emperor's craft, I don't know how many times you need to get it, you have only seen it for the first time, and you have been presented by His Majesty, which shows the glory of holy grace!"

Gao Jie hurriedly thanked him and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your favor, it's just that Xiao Jie hasn't found a place to live yet, can I leave it with you first, and I'll pick it up next time?"

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "Alas, if you want to find some accommodation by yourself, I have arranged a Hou Mansion for you not far from your parents' residence, and let him take you to see it later!"

Gao Jie was stunned, and stammered a little: "Your Majesty, you are ...... This is too much to lift up Xiaojie!"

Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "Such a holy favor is the first time in this dynasty, which shows that Your Majesty relies on you!"

Gao Jie looked at the smiling Emperor of the Apocalypse, and suddenly smiled and said, "Since Your Majesty is so wrong to love Xiaojie, can I ask for a few more pieces of furniture?"

Wei Zhongxian didn't expect Gao Jie to come up with such a sentence, and he was surprised, and quickly turned his gaze to Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao was also stunned, and then laughed loudly: "Okay! I'm not mistaken, Xiaojie is really a straightforward person, you are the brother who is verified by me, you are my brother, we are a family, all the furniture here, you can choose at will, or move it all away!"

The so-called companion is like a companion tiger, which of the civil and military officials, relatives of the emperor and the emperor dares to be so presumptuous and casual in front of the emperor, but Gao Jie just took the sword and went to the front, and came to such a play, and it seemed to amuse the Sacred Heart of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

After all, Gao Jie is a modern person from later generations, and his understanding and research of human nature are many times more profound and advanced than those of this dynasty. For an emperor who reigns over the world, these furniture are nothing, and there will be no reluctance to give them away; besides, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is proud of his craftsmanship, so he naturally hopes to be appreciated and praised by everyone, and the more he asks for him, the greater the affirmation of his craftsmanship.

Sure enough, the emperor is also an ordinary person, Gao Jie made the right bet, but he scared Wei Zhongxian and Luo Sigong into a cold sweat.
