Chapter 205: Jing Chu Long Sword
Before Gao Jie could ask, Luo Sigong said, "Could it be related to that five-foot long sword?"
Venerable Zong Qing nodded and said, "In the past two years, Lao Qu has asked Lord Luo to let Jinyiwei collect news about the infestation of this five-foot long sword in various places, in fact, he wants to end an unsolved case that year!"
Luo Sigong said: "What the master is talking about is the matter of the Venerable Pucong sitting down?"
Venerable Zong Qing sighed and said, "That's right! Back then, my junior brother and I led the abbot Xiaoshan Venerable Decree and followed General Yu Dayou to learn the art in the army, which lasted more than three years. www.biquge.info When we returned to the temple after completing our studies, Lord Yu handed over the two martial arts cheats compiled by himself to us and brought them back to Shaolin. What I am carrying is the "Sword Sutra", and what my junior brother Pu Cong is carrying is the "Jing Chu Long Sword"!"
"Jing Chu Long Sword"?!" Luo Sigong exclaimed: "It is said that this sword technique was created by Master Li Liangqin, General Yu's mentor, and Master Li Liangqin is famous for his Zhang Erzhu stick method, while Jing Chu Long Sword is a two-handed sword technique created by fusing Miao knife, Qi Mei stick and Japanese sword technique in his participation in the anti-Japanese war, which was used to deal with the Japanese in the War of Resistance against Japanese Invaders, and played an unimaginable miraculous effect!
Li Liangqin, is the Ming Dynasty Jiajing period of the folk anti-Japanese general, is an important celebrity of the Li family in the ancient city of Tong'an, located in the steep mountain of Dongfu Shishan Houzhai Village, there is still a place to build the anti-Japanese cottage "Long'an Village". Liangqin Li Gong, the name of the three, the heavenly gift, the public machine should be surpassed, the appearance of burly, the nature of loyalty, strict conduct, Wen Tao martial arts, martial arts, bravery, less to Ren Xia to make a guest, to get a different monk Qi Mei stick method, after the addition of the second Zhang, the time Fujian and Zhejiang coastal Wokou rampant, the public rate of the local people in the disciples, the organization of martial arts, set up to teach the Quartet to learn the stick method, become a generation of master of the two stick method. Gong Yiwu met friends with Tie Sweep Weng and Chai Rake Gong, and finally became close friends, which was passed down as a good story. The latter officer worships General Yiyong. Seal the "Famous Dry City"!
Venerable Zong Qing smiled and said, "Lord Luo is well-informed, and what he said is extremely true! Because the Jing Chu Long Sword requires quite high conditions to practice, and there are very few people who can achieve cultivation, there are very few people who are proficient in this set of peerless learning. And Master Yu is extremely talented, and he has been able to pass on this swordsmanship to Li Gongzhen. ”
Gao Jie asked suspiciously, "Then did you and Venerable Pu Cong also learn the Jing Chu Long Sword Technique?"
Venerable Zong Qing shook his head and said, "The two of us have been practicing with Master Yu for three years, and it is not easy to master the true secret of the lost Shaolin stick method, how can we still have the spare strength to cultivate the Jing Chu Long Sword! ”
Gao Jie continued to ask: "Then later, your senior brothers brought back the two secret books of "Sword Sutra" and "Jingchu Long Sword" back to Shaolin Temple, have anyone cultivated peerless swordsmanship over the years?"
Venerable Zongqing smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaojie, you don't know, the two of us brought back to the temple have no swordsmanship!"
Without waiting for Gao Jie to ask, Luo Sigong smiled and said: "As far as I know, the "Sword Sutra" is actually a stick cheat!"
Venerable Zongqing said: "Yes, in ancient times, martial artists often called sticks swords, and what is recorded in Master Yu's "Sword Sutra" secret book is a stick classic that improves the self-zhang two stick method!
It turned out that when Zong Qing and Pu Cong said goodbye to Yu Dayou, Yu Dayou handed over the two secret books of "Sword Sutra" and "Jing Chu Long Sword" to the two respectively, and told that the "Sword Sutra" was to be brought back to Shaolin Temple for inheritance, and "Jing Chu Long Sword" was taken to his hometown by Pu from the Venerable and handed over to his son Yu Zhigao. Therefore, after leaving Yu Dayou's military camp, Zong Qing and Pu Cong separated, one went straight back to Shaolin Temple, and the other went to Jinjiang, Fujian (now Quanzhou, Fujian), and went to Yu Dayou's home to deliver the secret book of "Jing Chu Long Sword".
When Luo Sigong heard this, he frowned and said: "Yu Zhigao, the son of General Yu, is now the chief soldier of Fujian, and his martial arts are extraordinary, but I have never heard that he can make Jing Chu long sword!"
Venerable Zong Qing sighed: "That's true, when I returned to the Shaolin Temple for more than a month, Pu Cong's junior brother just returned, and he was carried back to the temple. He was seriously injured and dying at that time, and he was seriously injured after just a few words. And from his dying words, we learned that on the way to send the cheats of "Jing Chu Long Sword" to Fujian, he was attacked by several masked masters, outnumbered, and fell off the cliff, and the first half of "Jing Chu Long Sword" was taken in the melee, and he desperately jumped off the cliff and only saved the second half!"
Gao Jie and Luo Sigong looked at each other in shock, they didn't expect such a thrilling thing to happen around "Jing Chu Long Sword" many years ago.
Venerable Zong Qing continued: "Because I failed to do what I promised Master Yu, my Shaolin Temple felt deeply guilty, so I sent more than a dozen warrior monks with strong martial arts to send the secret book of the second half of the "Jing Chu Long Sword" to General Yu Zhigao in Fujian Province, and then, the people on the hill also personally took me to Yu Shi's army to explain this matter and take Jing to ask for the guilt. Yu Shi did not blame Shaolin, but apologized deeply for the death of his junior brother. At that time, Master Yu was leading the army to suppress bandits, and he was busy with military affairs and could not take care of personal affairs, so he asked Shaolin to track down the whereabouts of the secret book, hoping to return to Zhao completely! So, in the past few decades, my Shaolin disciples have been exploring everywhere and have never slackened, and when I was summoned into the palace by the Holy Lord to teach martial arts to the princes, I asked Lord Luo to let Jinyiwei also participate in the investigation of this matter. The hard work paid off, and finally last month, Lord Luo sent a message to me, saying that the skill of the long sword is now in Liaodong, although I don't know if it is really related to the secret book of "Jing Chu Long Sword", but the old man must also run to find out! It just so happened that you took this errand from the Mongols, and the old man came with him!"
Gao Jie suddenly realized: "No wonder just now, Master, when you saw that Li Yongfang and the short old man using the five-foot long sword, you were so excited and a little out of shape!"
Venerable Zong Qing said: "Lao Gu really didn't expect to be able to see this long sword skill in Liaoyang City, decades of hard work to no avail, once you can see it, how can you not lose your temper?!"
Gao Jie said: "Can the master be sure that Li Yongfang and the short old man are using the long-lost Jing Chu Long Sword?"
Venerable Zong Qing brushed his beard and said: "Although my junior brother Pu Cong and I have never practiced Jing Chu Long Sword, but in the three years we have been in the army, we have occasionally seen Master Yu's demeanor when he uses this technique, and we are deeply impressed! The long sword skills of Li Yongfang and the others are four or five points similar to those made by Master Yu, and it can be determined that they are definitely in the same vein as Jing Chu Long Sword. Because what is missing is the first half of the cheats, that is, the sword trick and the method of luck, and the move skills are all recorded in the lower half, so the sword qi and power of the two are almost the same, but the moves are very different!"
Luo Sigong pondered: "Now that we have discovered the clues, we must gain something tonight, tomorrow, I have no reason to stay in Liaoyang City anymore!"
Venerable Zong Qing said: "Yes, that's why I asked Wang Xi to follow them overnight, once the whereabouts of these two people are found, Lao Wei will go to find the answer!"
Gao Jie said in a deep voice: "We made such a big disturbance in Longxing Restaurant just now, I'm afraid that they will tighten their vigilance, and it will not be easy to succeed!"
Luo Sigong smiled: "But there is another possibility, because there was such a big twist and turn just now, they didn't think that we would kill a horse pistol later?!"
Venerable Zong Qing covered his palms and smiled, "Yes, what Lord Luo said is extremely true. However, this matter is a private matter of my Shaolin Temple, and it really has nothing to do with your business trip this time, so the two of you will stay at the inn, no matter whether the old man can succeed tonight or not, you will have to set off as planned early tomorrow morning, and you must not delay the important matter of the alliance between the two countries because of me!"
Luo Sigong waved his hand and said: "Master's words are wrong! Since we left Beijing and embarked on this journey together, we have become a team and a whole, relying on each other for blessings and woes, and sharing weal and woe. Previously, whether it was robbing the prison in Guangning or visiting the Longxing Restaurant tonight, how could the master stay out of the matter because these things had nothing to do with what you were planning on this trip?! Therefore, we will definitely go with us to do our best to do my best, and I hope the master will not say anything more!"
Gao Jie also said: "Tonight, I haven't warmed up yet, please take me with the master!"
Venerable Zongqing sighed and said: "The two are righteous, they are not afraid of danger to help, the old man is inexplicably moved, and the ancestors of Shaolin Temple express their gratitude!"
Not long after, Wang Xi returned, and he hugged his fists and smiled at Venerable Zongqing: "Wang Xi has fulfilled his mission this time, and he has already found out some news!"
Venerable Zong Qing returned the salute and said: "Lord Wang has worked hard, the hidden stabbing technique is extraordinary, if this matter is not for you, how can I have a harvest in a short time!"
Wang Xi said modestly: "The master has won the prize! After tracking and investigating, Li Yongfang led all the people of the Fifth Banner Team to follow the Sanbeile Mang Gurtai who arrived later into the city of Tokyo, imposed martial law, and strengthened the guard, while the short old man returned to a house in the south of Liaoyang City, where there were about a dozen guards with good martial arts. In addition, I vaguely heard that Li Yongfang called the short old man Master, while others called him the Master of the Wu Sect!"
Hearing this, Luo Sigong paced a few steps in the house and said, "It seems that that person is Wu Haisheng, the current master of the Cicada Knife Gate!"
Gao Jie was puzzled: "Isn't the peerless knowledge of the Cicada Knife Gate the Cicada Wing Knife, why did even their sect master use a five-foot long sword?"
Venerable Zong Qing said, "This is also one of the truths I want to find out!"
Wang Xi said: "The Cicada Knife Gate has only appeared in Liaodong for a few decades, and it has no reputation at all before, since the wild boar skin raised an army against the Ming, this small sect immediately attached itself to the Jin State, and in recent years, it has been low-key and secretive, and rarely appears in the public's field of vision!"
Luo Sigong said: "My Jinyi Wei was also in the Jin State when the attack on Fushun, only to learn that the Cicada Daomen had taken refuge in the Jurchens, at that time I told the first emperor, after getting the holy decree, I sent the Jinyi Wei thousands of miles to expedite, and sent a secret order to the Fushun garrison at that time, so that he could depose Li Yongfang, who was born in the Cicada Daomen, and escort him to the capital. However, the secret order has not yet been delivered, and Fushun has fallen, so Li Yongfang really surrendered the city as an internal response in this battle!"
Venerable Zong Qing said: "Based on this, it can be judged that the Cicada Dao Sect is not a famous family in Liaodong Martial Arts, and its rise is short-lived, and its origin is quite suspicious. Without further ado, there are only more than two hours left before dawn, Lord Luo, how about we leave immediately?"
Luo Sigong nodded, took out a masked black scarf and said with a smile: "Then let's play another big drama of visiting the Cicada Knife Gate at night!"
Gao Jie smiled at Wang Xi while masking his face: "Third brother, I can't do it if I want you to rest and rest, yours, lead the way!"
Wang Xi patted Gao Jie's head and said, "Don't you kid still have the idea of not letting me go?!
Gao Jie smiled and said: "I have won awards, I am just a veterinarian, I didn't expect that the third brother's physique is quite similar to cattle and sheep, and it can have this miraculous effect, but it is just a mistake!"
When Luo Sigong and Venerable Zong Qing heard this, they couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh, while Wang Xi felt angry and funny, and wanted to give Gao Jie a kick in the ass, but Gao Jie was as cunning as a fox and had already slipped out of the door.
The south of Liaoyang City, is the gathering place of large households, when it was still the territory of the Ming Dynasty, this piece is the residence of officials at all levels and wealthy merchants in Liaoyang City, after the Jurchens occupied Liaoyang, did not change the pattern of the city, and Wu Haisheng as the owner of the cicada knife gate who was quite valued by Nurhachi, after coming to Liaoyang, he was also given a good house in the south of the city.
Wu Haisheng's martial arts are extraordinary, and he has been hiding in a private house next to Longxing Restaurant, and his aura is very hidden, if it weren't for Gao Jie's perverted ear, others really wouldn't have noticed his existence. When Luo Sigong defeated Master Shulai in one fell swoop and severely injured Li Yongfang, he burst into action, risking his reputation to sneak attack Luo Sigong from behind and rush to help his disciples. Who knows, although the disciple was rescued, he was knocked away by the mysterious Jinyi Guard's secret agent, and crashed into the house, making a gray face, and the internal injuries were not light, and there was also a dark red palm print on his chest, which made him lose face in front of Manggul Taibel, Master Donglu Tu and Master Shulai, and his mood was extremely low.
At the moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed in the bedroom, concentrating and calming, and was doing his luck to heal his wounds, but he was depressed and emotionally complicated, and it was really difficult to completely calm down, and the healing effect was greatly reduced, and the whole person became more and more restless.
Wu Haisheng exhaled a heavy breath, stopped healing, turned over and got out of bed, thinking of the cool night breeze blowing in the courtyard, bathing in the quiet night to calm his restless mind.
He had just opened the door when he was shocked to see three masked men in black standing quietly at the door.
