5. The ancient tomb of the Yang family, the sun and the moon have a long shadow
It was midsummer and August, and the master and servant took off their coats, wrapped them in oiled paper, tied them to their bodies, and went naked into the water to follow the secret underwater passage that had been peeking out to the inside of the tomb. www.biquge.info Except for the ten sarcophagi placed in a row in the central tomb, there are no other traces, and the surrounding tombs have been inhabited, which shows that the ancient tomb inheritance was once prosperous. It's just that there are no traces of messiness in these tombs, which shows that these people left on their own initiative. So what happened that led to the abandonment of the ancient tombs, and more importantly, where did the ancient tomb collection go?
Lin Zhennan came to the sarcophagus in the central burial chamber according to the fragments in his memory, counted to the middle one, and motioned for Ganbo to open it, Ganbo hesitated, but finally stepped forward and lifted the lid of the coffin forcefully, and was stunned when he saw that the sarcophagus was empty. Lin Zhennan smiled secretly in his heart, if it weren't for some memories of himself, if the ancient leader had obtained this ancient tomb alone, maybe it would have been easier to find the mechanism, after all, he was born in tomb robbery, and if it was a person like Gan Bo who respected the dead, I am afraid that he would never find this mechanism.
In the midst of his thoughts, a crunch sounded, and I saw the stone slab at the bottom of the sarcophagus folded, revealing a stone staircase that meandered downward. Gamble sniffed, but there was no smell of corruption, and said, "It's ventilated down there, it should be a secret room."
The two of them entered the secret room, which was fully lit and shone through the straight slits deliberately carved out of the top of the four walls; a canal was carved out of the corner of the wall around the secret room, and the water source in the canal was connected to the dark river, so that the moisture on the water surface did not suffocate and dry in the secret room; the space of the secret room was divided into three areas with a stone multi-treasure grid, the left side was the practice area, the right side was the study, and the middle was the bedroom. The appearance is quite different from Lin Zhennan's memory, there is no stone carving of martial arts secrets on the stone wall, I saw that there is only one stone bed in the bedroom, two stone boxes, and there is a skeleton lying flat on the stone bed, the skeleton is dark and gray, wearing a fine linen robe, and the degree of decay is the appearance of a jiazi. The skeleton has a stack of paper in its hand, which appears to be in the form of a letter.
Whether there can be a harvest in the ancient tomb can only be pinned on this ancient ancient, carefully open the paper and read it to know that this is the skeleton's diary, and the content only makes Lin Zhennan laugh. It turns out that the descendants of the ancient tomb because of the origin of Guo Jing and Yang Guoxia, have been to expel the Tartars, the restoration of the Han people as the ancestral training, between the Mengyuan and Yuan Dynasty, although "the Condor Heroes, extinct rivers and lakes", but the people in the ancient tomb secretly collected the martial arts secrets to the rivers and lakes in many heroes and dead, stirring up foreign domination. But in the Emperor Ming beat the Mengyuan into the Northern Yuan, the Northern Yuan into Wara, the ancestral training of the ancient tomb heirs has been completed, until the Zhengde period, this generation of ancient tomb descendants will be bent on the rivers and lakes and temples, glorify the lintel, and make meritorious deeds to seal the prince. So he sealed the ancient tomb and led the whole family out of the Ning Wang Domain. Lin Zhennan, who is familiar with the history of this dynasty with his mother, is really crying and laughing, the descendants of this ancient tomb are really speechless, although the Zhengde Emperor was absurd, but the throne was very positive, after the ancestor Emperor Ming inherited an orderly Jiazi, the Zhengde Emperor firmly occupied the orthodox position, and the rebellion of King Ning was extremely unpopular, and it seemed to be a farce to descendants, and it was really called a tragedy in this ancient tomb heir.
The diary is pathetic, only saying that after the defeat of King Ning, the whole family was chased and killed by the Jinyi guard, and only escaped from his own body and returned home from the secret passage, and every midnight dream was the pain of his family being brought into the point of no return by himself, and he became more and more depressed, and finally decided to commit suicide by taking poison.
Seeing Lin Zhennan's strange expression, Gan Bo was worried, snatched the paper that the young master had read, and was speechless. The master and servant glanced at each other, and couldn't help laughing, this ancient tomb heir has been surrounded by Gaoming martial arts since he was a child, and he doesn't feel that there is anything precious, but because of the way of doing things like "Condor Heroes, extinct rivers and lakes", he has become ignorant of the world and eats the consequences. It can be seen that the big hidden is hidden in the city, and the small hidden is hidden in the wild. The real escape should not come at the cost of such an ending of the tomb heirs.
The master and servant learned a few words about sealing the ancient tomb from the diary, and finally found another secret room behind the stone wall of the study, which contained the lifelong learning of the Condor Man and the proud skills of the heroes who patrolled the city of Xiangyang.
At this point, the trip was considered a complete success, and the master and servant looked at each other and smiled at the same time, and then sighed. Laughter is the satisfaction that I came here from thousands of miles away from the south to seek a teacher and learn art, but after going through hardships and dangers, I finally achieved what I wanted, and I was happy to open up a new way to solve the plight of the Lin family. Sigh, is for the Condor Heroes who disappeared in the dust, I want to Yang Guo Daxia inside and outside the Yellow River all admired, up and down the river, everyone praised. Flying stones killed the chieftain, and led the crowd to guard Xiangyang, how high-spirited. Two hundred years later, after all, the descendants were unfilial, and the incense was cut off, leaving only the ancient tomb to think about the visitors two hundred years later to tell the vicissitudes of life. Lin Zhennan is determined to practice martial arts for the survival of the family, and he came here for the prosperity of the family. Lin Zhennan understands that there are people who practice ordinary martial arts and can become a family, but the Lin family is not stable and worry-free, what the Lin family needs is at least to have a first-class master who can protect his family within ten years. So Lin Zhennan chose to travel thousands of miles to come here, but now, with the secrets of martial arts in hand, he feels that the biggest gain is not these dead books, but the family history left by the ancient tomb.
All the ancient and modern ups and downs can be seen from the story of the ancient tomb Yang family to see some clues, the ancestor heroes are unique, for future generations to formulate a code to leave a testament, in order to ensure that future generations will not make a big mistake that can lead to the destruction of the family, and finally there will be a generation of heirs who are brave and congregated, out of the instinct to break the rules, or out of the desire to establish meritorious deeds, and finally pushed themselves and the family into an irreversible predicament, and finally or the clan was wiped out, or died of depression.
Lin Zhennan was thirteen years old when he arrived at Zhongnan Mountain, and in Huangming's words, "October pregnancy is also counted as a week", that is, fourteen years old. At that time, the rivers and lakes were in chaos, Huashan was infighting, and the northwest rivers and lakes were disorderly. Gamble has been walking in the south, fighting, and wandering the rivers and lakes, but he has never really intervened in such a large-scale martial arts battle, so the master and servant don't know how big a mess they have avoided. Later, when they came out of the mountain, the situation outside the mountain in the last year of the two couldn't help but be very happy.
Picking up and sorting out the relics of the ancient tomb and the secret books of martial arts opened the eyes of Lin Zhennan and Ganbo, and at the same time, the master and servant also had their own opinions on this unsuccessful apprenticeship experience. Although Lin Zhennan and Gan Bo did not learn more and higher martial arts from Lin Yuantu, but his family origin is the imperial palace, the great monk of the year did not know how deep his skills were, how high his knowledge was, and scratched out the tail of his hand later, Lin Yuantu had never learned martial arts, and he could fool the elders of Huashan by relying on some ambiguous words, and it must be said that the two of them knew no less than the Yang family's peerless exercises in the ancient tomb, and what could be mentioned was only that the knowledge was slightly narrower, and it could not be compared with the systematic cultivation of disciples of the famous sects.
Lin Zhennan and Gan Bo came to Nanshan to find an ancient tomb to apprentice with the consent of Yuantu Gong, one is to find a backer in the martial arts for the family, the second is to hide the ancient tomb in line with the family's intention to not want Lin Zhennan to intervene in the martial arts dispute, and the third is to practice martial arts to strengthen the body, and find a peerless school that is not lower than the "Sunflower Treasure Book" as a family inheritance. Among these three, the first is to seek power to rely on, which is the act of inaction, and it is also the most important. If the most important thing is not done, what should we do? Do you look for a famous sect to learn from a new sect, or do you live here and practice martial arts, and become your own way? The latter is obviously more difficult, but the master and servant are very human, and Lin Zhennan even remembers that martial arts are more right and wrong, and it is really involuntary to be passively involved in it before he is strong, which is inconsistent with his original intention of coming thousands of miles for the stability of the family.
On this day, in front of the door of the place where the ancient head lived before, the tea table made of tree roots was three feet square, and two wooden cups were placed on it, and the fragrance of tea floated up. It is Lin Zhennan and Gan Bo who have settled here, and they plan to practice the Fa according to the peerless classics, become their own family, and later return to Fuzhou to enter the martial arts Lin Liwei to protect the family, and retreat to retreat to the rivers and lakes without involving others' cause and effect.
Lin Zhennan Suhui is in his body, he has been practicing the Fa for many years, his spirit is strong, he has been stupid for ten years, he is thoughtless, and his physique is pure. The qi training techniques obtained this time include how to go further after the five absolute martial arts are profound, as well as the method of cultivating momentum and pondering the spirit, which can completely guide Lin Zhennan to further cultivate the spirit, and even go further than the observation of the law can be applied to martial arts battles. The Yang family has also handed down the "Nine Yin True Scripture", "Innate Gong" and other high-minded Taoist Qi exercises, the most rare chapter of martial arts is the most rare chapter of easy tendon forging bones, these two methods are proud of the year, such exercises can make Lin Zhennan's muscles and bones stronger, more suitable for practice, in the words of the monk is "the innate qi retains more", in the words of the martial arts everyone is "the root bone is excellent, the qualification is excellent", in the words of the doctor is "the health of the camp is heavy, and it is difficult to get touched".
Gan Bo's age is actually not very big, but he was injured in the early years of the army, and he does not expect to become a big master in this life. In addition, there are many records of the ancient tombs, and there are many martial arts secrets and tricks, and this market hero is more interested in this.
Suddenly, the sun and the moon rotated, that is, two years. In the past two years, Lin Zhennan's practice qi has been quite good, because he has become a self-made road, there is no teacher to inherit the shackles, and what he practiced is to use the whole heart method to urge the nine yin true scriptures in the easy tendons to forge bones, and the thickness of the foundation will definitely be able to shock the eyeballs if others know. In terms of martial arts, it is very fast to get started, because the root bones are good, there is no obstacle to practice, and it is often a random reaction to the subtle feelings and intuition of his body, so the profound martial arts and simple martial arts will not be visible in him, and finally under the advice and help of Gamble, with the long and short hands in the army as the bones, add some grappling techniques, improve some power skills, and summarize a few long fists. In terms of equipment, with the dream military dagger as the prototype, it is mainly based on stabbing, wiping and teasing, and summarizes some quick and direct force is convenient, and the infusion skill is more convenient, which is different from a set of knife methods from other families.
It's winter again, in front of the ancient tomb in Zhongnan Houshan, there is a flat land in the woods, the soil color is different, at a glance, it can be seen that it was formed by being trampled hard for a long time, and there is no grass. At this time, there is a shirtless young man on the flat ground, long and strong, only his face has some childishness, he stomps his feet, but he does not make a sound, and his shoulder-length black hair is sassy with the wind. It was Lin Zhennan, sixteen years old.
