Chapter 30: Suspicion
After Jing Chuan went back, he had been pondering the palm of Qin Xue Palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"What kind of palm is that, I don't see him move, let alone accumulate strength, and in an instant, I can leave a deep palm print on the snow leopard's head?"
There are two types of palm techniques: the inferior palm and the superior palm. The downward palm method relies on the strength of the body, with a huge force, and then borrows a certain momentum to hit out, such a palm method often requires a process of accumulation. The superior palm law relies on internal force, and there is not much movement on the body, and it explodes instantly with internal force, and the force is invisible. The power of this palm technique is more powerful than that of the lower palm technique, which can not only injure the hair and skin, but also shock the internal organs. Qin Xuegong's palm belonged to the superior palm technique of using internal force.
But for those who practice martial arts, in addition to practicing external skills, the most important thing is to practice internal skills, which determines a person's martial arts realm. If the internal strength is not deep, no matter how good the external strength is, it is just a showcase, and only by cultivating both inside and outside, can the martial arts continue to improve. Jing Chuan could see from that palm print that Qin Xue Palace's internal strength was very profound.
At this point, Jing Chuan couldn't beat Qin Xue Palace no matter what, because he knew that his internal strength was far inferior to Qin Xue Palace.
Heavy sword technique and light internal strength is a disadvantage of Chen Danian's martial arts, and such a disadvantage also appeared in Jing Chuan and other four brothers. Since the four brothers began to train, they mainly practiced sword skills, and rarely practiced internal skills, and Chen Danian rarely taught them. According to Chen Danian's theory: internal strength is not the most important, the important thing is the speed and stability of the knife technique. The supreme realm of sword techniques will make the opponent unable to find any flaws. In the face of such a knife technique, even if the internal strength is profound, there is no opportunity to exert force. This concept was instilled in the minds of the four brothers when they were very young, so they didn't attach much importance to it, they only studied the sword technique every day, and did not pay attention to the cultivation of internal strength, and this became their most fatal weakness.
Jing Chuan sometimes suspects that Master Chen Danian did not ignore internal strength, but deliberately instilled this concept in them, leaving room for restraint in the future. Especially after they were hunted down and killed one after another, Jing Chuan understood: to Chen Danian, they were just a few knives, just tools for killing. What Chen Danian needs is for them to complete the task, and he doesn't care about their life or death. If they are allowed to cultivate internal strength, it will be tantamount to making the knife have its own consciousness, and then it will be very troublesome to deal with it in the future.
Jing Chuan later tried to cultivate internal strength, but due to his age and the weak foundation when he was young, he did not make much progress at all. This has also become a piece of his heart, although his sword skills are powerful, but the internal strength is really lacking, if he encounters an opponent like Qin Xuegong, he will lose very badly.
So when he saw Qin Xuegong hit that palm with internal force, he was very surprised in his heart, and at the same time faintly worried: "I want to compete with him tomorrow, he said that he doesn't use weapons, then he completely relies on internal strength." The palm he struck today was clearly for me, and if I fought him, I might not be able to beat it. ”
Jing Chuan is not afraid, but thinking of countermeasures. He knew that he was coming with a mission, and according to Qin Xue Palace's temper, he would either make a tie or kill his opponent. If he loses, Qin Xuegong will inevitably kill him, then Huo Qijian will not be saved.
After Jing Chuan went back, he thought about it again and again, but he still couldn't figure it out, and finally decided that he would only act when the time came.
On the morning of the second day, a man arrived at the Snow Palace.
That person was the person Jing Chuan met by the lake at the bottom of the mountain that day: Duan Yu.
Qin Xue Palace called him "Duan Wang Ye". Jing Chuan didn't know what his identity was, looking at his face, he looked like a person from the Central Plains.
Jing Chuan thought, "Could it be that he used to be a prince, but why did he appear here again?"
When Duan Yu saw Jing Chuan, he smiled and said, "Brother Jing, I didn't expect you to be here!"
Jing Chuan didn't know the details of Duan Yu, and he was still a little cautious in his heart, so he said, "We met by the lake that day." ”
"Exactly, it seems that you and I have fate, and we have met again on this Tianshan Mountain. I have been friends with Qin Lao for a long time, and I often come to the mountains to drink with him, could it be that Brother Jing also knows Qin Lao?"
Jing Chuan said: "I just met, Jing Mou came to ask Qin Lao to do something. ”
"I see. Duan Yu said and glanced at Qin Xue Palace.
Qin Xuegong laughed and said: "This Brother Jing is not only good at martial arts, he killed me a snow leopard, but he also drinks an amazing amount of alcohol, above me!"
"Oh! Looks like I'm not wrong. When I saw Brother Jing by the lake that day, I knew that Brother Jing was not a mortal, and now even Elder Qin said so, which is even more amazing. You must know that Qin Lao rarely praises people, and he doesn't pay attention to ordinary people. Brother Jing can get Qin Lao's praise, which shows that the public martial arts are extraordinary!"
Jing Chuan said humbly: "I'm ashamed, I'm just a martial artist below, and I can just use sword techniques." ”
Duan Yu said with a smile: "Brother Jing doesn't have to be too humble, now everyone knows each other, they are friends." Duan is very happy to be able to make a friend today, Old Qin, otherwise, let's have a bowl of wine. ”
Qin Xuegong pointed at Duan Yu and said with a smile: "You, you are good wine!"
"Hahaha, I'm happy to meet the hero, of course I have to drink!"
"Okay, then let's have a bowl!" Qin Xuegong said to the two teenagers, "Pour the wine!"
Jing Chuan has always been suspicious of Duan Yu's enthusiasm in his heart, and before he can say a few words, he still doesn't know the details of the other party, how did he become a friend? Duan Yu looked at it on the surface, but there was nothing suspicious. It's just that Jing Chuan doesn't know what kind of person he is, so he is on guard.
When the young man poured the wine and brought it over, Jing Chuan said, "Let's wait for the wine to drink it, I made an appointment with Mr. Qin yesterday to compete today." ”
When Duan Yu heard this, he looked at Jing Chuan and Qin Xuegong suspiciously, "Competition?
Qin Xuegong said with a smile: "Brother Jing said that he wanted to compete with me, and I promised him that if he could take ten moves from me, I would help him do something." ”
"Old Qin, you're here again!" Duan Yu said to Qin Xuegong in a reproachful tone, "Knowing that Brother Jing is not an ordinary person, why do you still use the routine of dealing with ordinary people against him?"
Qin Xuegong just smiled and didn't speak. Jing Chuan said: "I came to ask Mr. Qin to do something, and on Mr.'s territory, I naturally have to follow Mr.'s rules." Besides, I also proposed the competition first, just to learn martial arts with Mr., and I didn't have any other intentions. ”
Qin Xuegong was like a scoundrel at this time, and said, "You see, he wants to compare with me, what can I do?"
Duan Yu frowned and glanced at Qin Xue Palace, then turned to Jing Chuan and asked, "I still don't know where Brother Jing came from, what is the matter with looking for Qin Lao?"
Jing Chuan said: "In the next from Jiayuguan, Jiayuguan general Huo Qijian was poisoned, no one can solve it, in danger, I heard that Mr. Qin's medical skills are superb, so he specially came to Tianshan for help. ”
After listening to Jing Chuan, Qin Xuegong no longer had a hippie smile, and his face changed suddenly. Duan Yu also reacted in the same way, as if he understood something, and suddenly fell silent.
Seeing that the two of them reacted so much, Jing Chuan was even more puzzled, so he asked Duan Yu, "Brother Duan, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing. Duan Yu smiled a little reluctantly, "Brother Jing said Huo Qijian, I also recognize it below, but I have a question." ”
"Brother Duan, please speak. ”
"I think Brother Jing is a hero, how can he have anything to do with Huo Qijian? Could it be that Brother Jing has already taken refuge in Huo Qijian?"
Jing Chuan didn't understand the meaning of Duan Yu's words, so he said, "It's not what Brother Duan thought. I didn't have anything to do with the people of the official family, this time I just went to Jiayuguan by accident and was injured, if it wasn't for Huo Qijian's subordinates to save me, I almost lost my life. Knowing that he was harmed by the villain, it was also to repay the grace of saving his life, so he came to Tianshan to ask Mr. Qin for rescue. ”
"Oh, I see. ”
Qin Xuegong, who was standing on the side, remained silent, with displeasure on his face. Jing Chuan asked: "After mentioning Huo Qijian below, the two of you seem to be a little unhappy, could it be that there is something wrong?"
Duan Yu looked like he wanted to say something, and Qin Xue Gong turned his face to the other side. Jing Chuan was even more puzzled and said, "There is something wrong with the two of you, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Duan Yu hesitated for a while, and finally spoke: "I think Brother Jing is an upright and righteous person, so let's say it." I heard that not long ago, Huo Qijian wanted to unite with the commanders of the Seven Guards of Kansai to plot a rebellion and seize the throne. If that's the case, Brother Jing is helping the wrong person. ”
When Jing Chuan heard this, he was shocked and said, "What? You mean that Huo Qijian wants to raise an army to rebel?"
"I've heard it from people below, but I don't know if the news is true. So just now I heard Brother Jing say that he came to help Huo Qijian this time, and he was a little puzzled. ”
Jing Chuan was very serious when he saw Duan Yu speak, and he didn't know where he heard the news. Not long ago, he saw with his own eyes that Han Yannian, the commander of Suzhou Wei, had a secret meeting with Wei Guozhong, the secretary of the military department, and Ma Dai, the son of Ma Weiyong, the commander of Jinyi Weiwei, also went. At the foot of Kunlun Mountain, he met four Jinyi guards chasing and killing a messenger, and the letter he got from the messenger was also a letter of rebellion, obviously it was the Kansai Qiwei who wanted to rebel, but now how did Huo Qijian want to rebel? What is Duan Yu's identity, and how can he even know such a confidential matter? And now he says that Huo Qijian wants to rebel, could it be that he is also one of the conspirators? Jing Chuan thought about it, but he still felt puzzled, and things seemed to have become more complicated. If the Guanxi Qiwei, Wei Guozhong, Ma Weiyong, and others really wanted to rebel, then why did the Jinyi Guard, who was in charge of Ma Weiyong, go back to hunt down the messenger? And send people to assassinate Han Yannian and others when they had a secret meeting? It is unreasonable to say that. If what Duan Yu said was true, could it be that all of this was instructed by Huo Qijian? Jing Chuan couldn't tell the difference between right and wrong for a while.
However, Jing Chuan was more puzzled by how Duan Yu knew this. He looked at the somewhat dignified person in front of him, who was called "Duan Wangye", and his heart was full of doubts.
Jing Chuan knew that the facts were still unclear, and it was not known who wanted to rebel. For him, the smart thing to do is to play dumb for the time being, save his life, and just act as if he doesn't know anything, and talk about it later.
He's just a martial artist, which is a good cover-up.
