Chapter 44: Wounded Autumn Leaves
All dynasties and regime changes are strikingly similar. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info said that Emperor Xuan had no way and died suddenly, and Emperor Jing ascended the throne, but because he was young and unable to support the overall situation of the world, he was forced by the general Yang Jian several times, and had to give up the throne under the edict of Chan.
This Yang Jian is tenacious by nature, has commanded the army for many years, and is extremely majestic, and since he forced Emperor Jing Chan to give up the throne, he changed the name of the country to the Great Sui and changed the Yuan Emperor. Since Yang Jian ascended the throne, he has tried his best to get rid of the old and cloth the new, change customs, and restore the status of Buddhism and Taoism in accordance with the will of the people. However, he was also worried about the power of the various gangs and factions in the rivers and lakes, fearing that they would be used by the rebels, which would be detrimental to the unity of the world. After learning that Shangguan Xiaoxiong, the leader of the Mo Gang, had the "Treasure Source Secret" of the Dharma Sutra in his hand, he was even more coveted, so he postponed the orders of Emperor Wu and Emperor Xuan, and sent Dugu Changfeng, who was still the head of the five internal and external governments, and Dugu Hong, the new leader of the world's first leader in the anti-theft world, to exterminate in the name of the Mo Gang's secret collusion with the rebels.
Since ancient times, emperors have not only liked to conquer the world and grasp the power to manipulate the life and death of others, but also prefer beauty and wealth. And now, a book that almost everyone knows about the secrets of the rivers and lakes has aroused the hearts of three generations of emperors!
Li Xuan sighed secretly, and said in his heart: "What kind of secret is this?" The five-color peak of the Mobang General Altar is located between the Qinling Mountains and Daba Mountain, the mountain is steep, and it is a mountain peak that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. When Shangguan Xiaoxiong heard that Dugu's father and son were ordered to come, he summoned everyone on the Xuanyuan platform of the main peak, smashed the stone box containing the treasure source secret, and took out the secret book and distributed it to everyone. Maybe there was a plan for this matter in the dark, or maybe Shangguan Xiaoxiong made careful arrangements. There are no more and no more chapters of the treasured source secrets that have been separated, a total of four, namely: moving muscles and refining bones, nourishing qi and gathering power, combining yin and yang, and putting death to life.
You must know that although Shangguan Xiaoxiong and his entourage who infiltrated Shaolin back then were five people, they had a pair of twin brothers, who were the Ding Shuangxiong who were in the last 'qi' position in the world of anti-theft. The eldest of the Ding brothers is called Ding Qiankun, and the younger brother is called Ding Cangqiong, the two are connected by umbilical cord and blood, and their minds belong to the same family.
And they rejoiced when they saw that such a distribution was fair. But what is annoying is that it has become a headache for whom to give which article and which one not to give to whom. Because although this move is to temporarily avoid the limelight, it still has to be prioritized. After some discussion, Shangguan Xiaoxiong proposed to distribute it according to the size of his previous military merits, so that everyone had no objections...... In terms of military merits, Shangguan Xiaoxiong naturally obtained the first method of focusing on cultivating the secret of the treasure source, moving the muscles and refining the bones.
You must know that the first practice of the mind of all the secrets in the world is like the foundation of digging pits and filling in stones when building a house, if you do not have the first heart method, no matter how high your understanding is higher than the sky, the practice of the rest of the mind will be extremely difficult. If the practitioner forcibly cultivates the rest of the mind regardless of it, he will inevitably appear like a castle in the air, and he will go mad at any time, and his meridians will be confused. Everyone naturally understands this truth, and they also know that Shangguan Xiaoxiong's move is secretly selfish, but the situation is compelled, and there is no choice but to swallow his anger. Although Long Hongye is a woman, she has strong martial arts, is beautiful, and has a good popularity, so after discussing it, everyone agreed to give her the second gravity method of Baoyuan Secret Recipe to cultivate qi and gather strength...... The remaining part was divided among Yan Wushu and the Ding brothers with their military merits. A few people have finished distributing the treasure source secrets, and Dugu's father and son have also found the Mo Gang General Altar. It was a life-and-death duel. Although the five Shangguan Xiaoxiong joined forces to fight, it was still difficult to resist the strong martial arts Dugu father and son, and the most pitiful thing was those altar guards, who stepped forward with a knife, and were either killed by Dugu Hong's palm, or beaten to lifelong disability.
The five Shangguan Xiaoxiong fought to the death, although they broke out of the siege of Dugu's father and son, they were all in great pain, scattered and fled, and have been scattered in the rivers and lakes since then. And in this fight, Yan Wuving, who shared the yin and yang longitudinal chapter, was hit by Dugu Changfeng's palm, and the scroll in his arms was lost. Since then, the famous Mo Gang has disappeared from the rivers and lakes as before its rise. And after Dugu Hong picked up the Yin and Yang Vertical Chapter, he was overjoyed, and he ignored the taboo of 'the way of Baoyuan martial arts, which must be moved to nourish qi first, if you do not move tendons to nourish qi, you must not forcibly practice'. In the past few months, he has continued to rely on his extraordinary intelligence and intelligence to strengthen his self-cultivation...... Later, although Dugu Hong made great progress in martial arts, he gradually entered the demon path.
When Li Xuan read this, he couldn't help but feel excited. Thinking back then, the Shangguan Xiaoxiong and Dugu father and son must have been shocked in a battle at the Mobang General Altar, which is not trivial, and he thought to himself: "Dugu Hong is young in the end, he ignored the warnings of the Baoyuan scriptures, violated the way of Baoyuan's martial arts, and inevitably fell into the devil's way, which is his own death...... Shangguan Xiaoxiong is really scheming and vicious, and his calculations are long. He must have already peeked at the secrets of the scriptures and knew the key to the cultivation of the treasured source secrets, so he had the idea of splitting the secrets and hiding them separately. Well, in this way, although the scriptures in the hands of others are precious, because they can't be practiced, they are like waste paper...... "Dugu Hong, who is gifted and intelligent and loves martial arts, naturally knows the harm of continuing to practice, so while he is practicing the martial arts contained in the Yin and Yang Combination Chapters of the Treasure Source Secret Guide, he is determined to find the other chapters of the Treasure Source Secret Guide. And Long Hongye was the first person to be found by him.
At that time, Long Hongye was forcibly practicing the mental method contained in the treasure source secret book Nourishing Qi and Gathering Gong in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers in Zhongnan Mountain. Duguhong found the dragon red leaves, and the two couldn't help but say that they could fight. You must know that the five of Shangguan Xiaoxiong and Long Hongye joined forces to fight with Dugu's father and son, and in the end, they lost most of the lives of the gang to get out. Now although Long Hongye has practiced the Treasure Source Secret Technique to Nourish Qi and Gather Gong, even if he has a small success and has not damaged the meridians, how can he be the opponent of Dugu Hong, who has fallen into the Demon Dao martial arts, which is already strong! The two of them have fought for a hundred moves, Long Hongye's internal strength is not good, and he was knocked to the ground by Dugu Hong after the flaws in his moves were exposed. She closed her eyes and waited to be killed, but for some reason, Duguhong didn't kill her and staggered away.
Long Hongye Bai picked up a life, and he was puzzled in his heart, and he hit the acupoint open, and he searched all the way to Dugu Hong, whose whereabouts were unknown. Three days later, when Long Hongye found Dugu Hong, it was when the two pulses of Ren and Du in his body were damaged. She saw Dugu Hong, who was chasing her, fall to the ground in pain, her face was pale, and the pain was abnormal, and she no longer had the ruthless and domineering spirit she used to have. As a result, his daughter's heart turned into ten thousand tenderness, and she used the method contained in the treasure source secret book to nourish qi and gather gong to help him heal.
This kind of healing method requires two people to use their palms against each other, not leaving for a moment, injecting a strong internal force into the body of the injured, and the injured person uses its internal force to massage the meridians around the body until 9981 hours, running for nine large and small weeks, can be completed.
There is a saying: the heart and hand are connected, and the heart is loved. The two of them touched each other's palms, and they did not abandon each other within three days, but they gradually fell in love and fell in love with each other. Later, Long Hongye taught Dugu Hong's secret of Baoyuan's Qi Gathering Strength, and Dugu Hong also taught the Yin and Yang Combination to Long Hongye. But there are sorrows in the world, and wishful thinking may only be one in ten thousand. The two lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain for a year, and were finally discovered by Dugu Changfeng. At this time, it was a critical period for Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian to pacify the world, and Dugu Changfeng, who was the head of the five mansions, knew that the political arena was the den of dragons and tigers, and if he was not careful, his family would be ruined. Long Hongye is a key offender of the imperial court, and Dugu Hong will interact with him, and he will definitely become a small person to participate in his own handle.
According to the laws of the Great Sui, whether it is an official of the court or a common people, if they collude with the court to commit a crime, they will be beheaded at best, and they will be punished by the nine clans. For the lives of more than 300 members of the family, Dugu Hong said goodbye to Long Hongye, and said that when the major event is over, he will definitely come back to pick up Long Hongye to the imperial capital. But Duguhong has been gone for four years, and there has been no news since.
Long Hongye waited left and right, but he was never seen, so he packed his bags, went out of the Red Flower Valley of Zhongnan Mountain, and went to the imperial capital alone to inquire about Duguhong's news. After a thousand rounds, she realized that in the four years since Dugu Hong returned to the imperial capital, she has never persuaded Dugu Changfeng, who is obsessed with his career. For the sake of his father and the Dugu family, in desperation, Dugu Hong obeyed his father's wishes and married the eldest granddaughter of the patriarch Li Mu Li Taishi. This news is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Long Hongye. Since the lover has been negative, Hongchen has no nostalgia. Long Hongye fell seriously ill, and after recovering from the illness, he was also disheartened.
In the sixth year of the emperor's reign, the dragon red leaves wandering on the rivers and lakes came to the black pine cliff of Junwang Mountain. She saw that the cliff here was high and dangerous, the clouds and wind were swirling, everything was like a dream, and the lovesickness and sourness she had suffered in the past few years suddenly poured into her heart, and she secretly said in her heart: "Since life is meaningless, why can't I have a painful body...... It seems that this is a good place to end life......" Long Hongye cried bitterly on the top of the cliff, and when the sky was slightly bright, he jumped off the high cliff...... The black pine cliff has been there since ancient times, standing as it was for thousands of years, and the ancient pine on the cliff is innate, laughing proudly at the changing world. However, Long Hongye jumped off the cliff and did not die. She landed on a conjoined pine tree that grew on the cliff face, and miraculously survived.
Li Xuan was amazed in his heart, and said secretly: "There is such a strange thing in the world. Hey, Long Hongye's predecessors were also saved by a double-conjoined pine tree after falling off the cliff......" He sighed with emotion, and said in his heart: "The reason why Long Hongye's predecessors jumped off the cliff back then was because they were heartbroken and willing to be martyred. But what about me, I was held by Duan Xiaotian and couldn't get out, and I fell off the cliff...... Fate is also ......"
The bonfire in the cave gradually weakened, Li Xuan got up and added some pine branches and vines, and while stirring the bonfire, he recalled the legendary past in Silong's red leaf notes.
Long Hongye came back from the dead, sad and happy, and in a few days, his heart slowly became as quiet as water. When the mind is calm, nothing can be done. She lived in the cave, and in her spare time, she continued to study the two martial arts methods in her hand every day. Time passed, and the days accumulated, although her skills increased greatly, but because of the lack of the Yi Muscle and Bone Chapter, she was never able to cultivate the martial arts of the Yin and Yang Combination Chapter.
In her distress and sorrow, she almost fell into the devil's path several times, and she almost gave up this kind of day without tomorrow in the days of danger and hardship. But every time she thinks of Duguhong and his tenderness for herself, she secretly hopes that she can meet him in her lifetime. This side, even if you look at it from a distance across the street, you will die without regrets.
For feelings, this is the lowest dream, but for Long Hongye's situation at that time, this has become an unattainable dream. Dreams, some like a mirror, seem beautiful, but ethereal, some are like a strong wind, give courage, and promote the steps forward...... Although the dreams are different, I don't know if they can be realized, but it is much better to have a dream than to be drunk and dream of dying. Long Hongye firmly cherished the dream of meeting Dugu Hong in his heart and passed the time.
The days in the cave went on and on.
Over time, the daily diet of living in the cave has become more difficult than the practice of martial arts. Fortunately, the valley is cloudy and sunny, and the rain and dew are falling, and the vine on the conjoined double pine bears red fruits all year round. Although there are fewer red fruits, they can barely do it by maintaining the minimum needs of the body. After spending three years in the cave with such difficulty, Long Hongye not only completed the basic practice method in the chapter on Qi Cultivation and Gathering Gong, but also barely relied on the light skill of 'gecko swimming wall' to go back and forth between the cliff top and the cave. You must know that the cave is dozens of zhang away from the top of the cliff, the cliff wall has been through wind and rain several times, the slippery and wet are abnormal, and the straight is like a knife cutting momentum, if you want to go up the cliff to get food and draw water, you have to do your best to learn, and you have to risk great danger.
In order to survive, people usually use their highest potential. In order to live well, all humiliation, misery, or evil words and foul language must be listened to and swallowed. Human beings are born without unbearable suffering, only endless blessings. Born in this world, only by treating yourself well and adjusting yourself can you live day by day.
There is a group of medicine collectors in Junwang Mountain all year round, who often go to the vicinity of the Black Pine Cliff to collect medicine. I don't know which day, I suddenly saw the dragon red leaves walking on the cliff, fluttering, like walking on the ground, suspected of the Holy Spirit descending to earth, not only fell to the ground to worship, but also ran to tell each other that 'the king of the mountain god has appeared'!
The so-called king mountain god is a god enshrined in a temple on the top of the mountain cliff. It is said that this temple was built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the incense was also prosperous, but since Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty abolished Buddhism and Taoism, people did not dare to go up to the cliff to worship, and it was also desolate. When the pharmacists saw the dragon red leaves climbing on the cliff wall, their posture was fluttering, how could they not think that it was the 'king and mountain god' apparition...... At that time, after Emperor Wen of Sui unified the country, Buddhism and Taoism were restored in the world, and people rekindled the fanaticism of respecting gods and ghosts. Although the pharmacists only saw the figure of Long Hongye from a distance, and did not know whether she was a man or a woman, they still raised money and rebuilt the temple of the king on the top of the cliff, and according to their own imagination, they molded the shape of the mountain god in their hearts.
Li Xuannian was young and upright, he never believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, and when he saw that the pharmacists were ignorant, he bowed to a fictitious god in his heart, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, and said in his heart: "I saw that the statues in the temple were neither male nor female, I don't know where they are sacred, but they came like this!" and said in his heart: "The world is too stupid after all...... They not only regarded the dragon red leaves with outstanding martial arts as the mountain god, worshipped them, but also rebuilt the temple. As everyone knows, the gods and ghosts in the world all come from the hearts of people. ”
