The fourth time, the snow is in the cave
In the next few months, Yang Zhan really picked fruits everywhere every day, climbed the cliff wall to pick mushrooms and snow fungus, and even made a mechanism to catch flying birds. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a while, the Cave Sky Valley began to float with snowflakes, and it was already the middle of winter. Yang Zhan deliberately built a fence with dead branches outside the cave of the Crazy Knife Ancestor to prevent the wind and snow from coming, and built a shed around the granite where he slept, but every afternoon when the mountain wind blows, it is inevitable that it will be repaired.
"Yang Zhan, you can wear that white ape skin to keep you warm. Crazy Knife Ancestor said.
"The white ape is kind to me, and I will never wear the fur of the white ape. Yang Zhan said firmly, and in his words, he seemed to have been haunted by the fur of the white ape that the Crazy Knife Ancestor had stripped back that day.
After getting along these days, the Crazy Knife Ancestor also understood Yang Zhan's character, although he was kind, he was a stubborn temper, as long as he didn't do what he said, ten cows couldn't pull it back. But Yang Zhan regarded the Crazy Knife Ancestor as heartless and heartless, but it was unacceptable to the Crazy Knife Ancestor.
"Yang Zhan, are you angry that I stripped the white ape?" Crazy Knife Ancestor couldn't help but ask angrily.
Yang Zhan didn't speak.
"Shouldn't I be sad about the death of the white ape?" the Crazy Knife Ancestor asked again.
"If you're sad, why can't you bear to peel off someone's skin? Why don't you shed a single tear from beginning to end? I don't see you feel a trace of guilt?" Yang Zhan said directly.
The Crazy Knife Ancestor was suddenly furious, raised his hand and slapped it, and Yang Zhan fell to the ground fiercely.
Yang Zhan stood up, didn't wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, still looked at the Crazy Knife Ancestor and said, "You are just ruthless." ”
The Crazy Knife Ancestor slapped again. Yang Zhan was beaten to the ground by the palm wind again.
Yang Zhan is on a par with the Crazy Knife Ancestor, and the more the Crazy Knife Ancestor fights, the more Yang Zhan is dissatisfied, and the more he has to scold. In the end, the Crazy Knife Ancestor almost wanted to kill Yang Zhan and then quickly. But looking at the young man in front of him, the Crazy Knife Ancestor could never kill him, so he simply stopped and sulked.
In the next few days, the Crazy Knife Ancestor ignored Yang Zhan. Yang Zhan didn't talk to the Crazy Sword Ancestor either, and Dongtian Valley suddenly fell silent. However, Yang Zhan went to dig the roots of wild grass every day, and boiled out hot soup from the previously stored food and sent it to the Crazy Knife Ancestor. The Crazy Knife Ancestor didn't pay attention to it, and only waited for Yang Zhan to walk away before eating. In order to ensure the heat of the soup, Yang Zhan always turned around and went back to his small shed after putting down the soup.
The snow in Dongtian Valley is getting heavier and heavier, and the heavy snow that has been blown up is half a foot thick, and the wind on the top of the valley is howling, cold and biting, although Yang Zhan has a pile of dead leaves as bedding, but it is still extremely cold and unbearable. Yang Zhan thought of the ragged Crazy Knife Ancestor in the cave again, how could he withstand such a severe cold when he was old, and his heart became even more uneasy. Thinking about it, Yang Zhan left the shed and took out the white ape skin hanging outside, all of which was clearly seen by the crazy knife ancestor who was pretending to sleep.
"It turned out to be a duplicitous guy too. The Crazy Sword Ancestor said secretly in his heart.
Yang Zhan held the fur of the white ape and walked towards the Crazy Knife Ancestor, and when he saw that the Crazy Knife Ancestor was sleeping soundly, he gently covered the white ape fur on the Crazy Knife Ancestor. He also brought firewood, and made a bonfire on the side to keep out the cold. Looking at the flickering flames, Yang Zhan felt that a year was going to pass again, and he suddenly felt homesick and missed those who had been good to him.
"Yang Zhan, what are you thinking?" I don't know when, the Crazy Sword Ancestor had already sat up and asked.
"Ancestor, are you awake?" Yang Zhan turned around and asked.
The Crazy Knife Ancestor didn't speak, as if he was waiting for Yang Zhan to answer.
"In our hometown, once it snows, it means that it is the New Year. Yang Zhan said with some sadness.
"So you're homesick?" asked the Blade Ancestor again.
"I'm alone now, where is my home?" Yang Zhan said very desolately, and he could hardly say the rest of the words.
"This cave valley is in a corner, and the population is extinct, and if you can come here, it means that you and I are destined. The Crazy Knife Ancestor pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "I am very conceited in this life, but I have lived alone in the valley for more than forty years, and I am afraid that this life is over. ”
The words of the Crazy Sword Ancestor also suddenly became desolate, and Yang Zhan's heart was cold when he heard it.
"The ancestor has martial arts and will not die. Yang Zhan comforted.
"Hahaha...... No matter how high the martial arts are, people will grow old, and there will be a day when they die. Crazy Knife Ancestor said helplessly. Yang Zhan didn't know how to persuade him, so he simply kept silent.
"I'm eighty-three this year, and I'm already in the last years of my life, I'm afraid that my life will be extinct in the world, isn't it very sad?" said the Crazy Sword Ancestor, and tears flowed out.
"Yang Zhan, you kneel. The Crazy Knife Ancestor suddenly ordered.
Yang Zhan saw that the Crazy Knife Ancestor was sad, and felt that it was understandable for people who were originally old to bow down by themselves, so he knelt down in front of the Crazy Knife Ancestor.
"Three more kowtows. The Crazy Knife Ancestor ordered again.
Yang Zhan was a little hesitant, but thinking about the Crazy Knife Ancestor, he was in an uncomfortable mood, and if he kowtowed, he could be happy, and there was nothing wrong with it. Then he kowtowed.
"Great, great. Yang Zhan, from today onwards, you will be the mantle disciple of my Crazy Sword Ancestor. Hahaha...... "The Crazy Knife Ancestor burst into laughter, and the laughter shook the snow on the cliff wall and collapsed.
Yang Zhan looked at the Crazy Knife Ancestor in surprise, he hadn't figured out what was going on, how he had become the apprentice of the Crazy Knife Ancestor.
The Crazy Sword Ancestor didn't pay much attention to it, and then said: "I have two wishes in my life, one is to return to Huyang Village in Mobei and sacrifice to the old people in my hometown, and the other is to fight the swordsmen of Shangyang Mountain again, and I will be superior to each other. All of this will be done by you, Yang Zhan, as the teacher, okay?"
"Well, Ancestor, please rest assured, if I go out, I will definitely take you to fulfill these two wishes. I, Yang Zhan, said to do it. Yang Zhan said firmly.
"Bastard, what kind of ancestor is not an ancestor, I am your master now, and I will teach you a lifetime of martial arts. The Crazy Knife Ancestor couldn't help but scold.
"Yes, Master. Yang Zhan shouted respectfully.
Only then did the Crazy Sword Ancestor ease some of his anger, and said after a long time: "After you finish your studies, it is estimated that the teacher will also be buried here." Master's two wishes, you will fulfill them on Master's behalf, okay?"
"Master lives a long life, Master will not die so soon. Yang Zhan was in a hurry, and he didn't know what to say.
"You don't agree to be a teacher?" asked the Crazy Knife Ancestor in disappointment.
"I promised Master that he would definitely help Master when he went out in the future, but I had these two wishes. If you violate this oath, people and gods are outraged!" Yang Zhan's words said that the Crazy Sword Ancestor was very pleased.
Although it was a snowy night, the master and apprentice had a long talk about the fire.
"For the sake of the teachers and students, one is to use the ghost eye and crazy knife to drive the demon breaking knife method, and defeat the heroes of the world; the second is to cross the clouds with light skills, fly the eaves and walk the wall, and walk alone for a while; the third is to abandon the blade, use the palm as the knife, turn the internal force into the blade, and be invincible. You first learn the Thirty-One Demon Breaking Sword Technique, and then learn the skill of Lingyundu after you have a certain foundation. The kung fu of using the palm as a knife needs to be learned to break the demon knife and have enough strong internal force before it can be comprehended. The Crazy Knife Ancestor talked about them one by one, and then taught Yang Zhan the mental formula of the Demon Breaking Sword Method.
Yang Zhan was born to never forget, and with a little care, he was able to memorize the chapters he saw, and he was also familiar with the mantra of the Demon Breaking Knife Method. Then the Crazy Knife Ancestor explained the mental formula one by one, Yang Zhan listened attentively, and contacted back and forth, and gradually felt that the thirty-one Demon Breaking Sword Method inherited the past and the future, and the changes were endless, and he had the first glimpse of the essence of martial arts.
In the next few months, Yang Zhan first practiced the Demon Breaking Knife Method with a tree branch instead of a knife, and suddenly his power was great, stirring up snowflakes flying in the sky; The Demon Breaking Knife Technique driven by the Devil's Eye Crazy Knife is obviously more powerful, and it can faintly hit the blade with every move, although it is separated by several zhang, the blade can also break wood and branches.
The Crazy Knife Ancestor watched and pointed out from the side, and if there was a slight deviation, he stopped Yang Zhan, and then explained the essence from the new after some reprimand, so strict, Yang Zhan's martial arts were very refined, and by midsummer, he had been able to smoothly and freely use the ghost eye madness to make a full set of demon-breaking knife techniques. At this moment, the Crazy Sword Ancestor smiled knowingly, and secretly sighed that Yang Zhan was a talent that could be created after all. Next, the Crazy Knife Ancestor taught Yang Zhan the Lingyun Crossing Heart Method, and Yang Zhan practiced for a longer time every day. But Yang Zhan endured hardship, and after getting a glimpse of the essence of martial arts, he was out of control, and when he looked at it again in the next year, Yang Zhan was already able to fly the eaves and walk the walls, back and forth between the cliffs and cliffs of the Dongtian Valley.
After studying like this for more than two years, Yang Zhan learned the Magic Breaking Knife Method and Ling Yundu, and happily came to report to the master. But the Crazy Knife Ancestor didn't have a good face.
"Zhan'er, don't be complacent, there are a total of thirty-one demon-breaking knife techniques you have learned, and the teacher now wants you to forget the demon-breaking knife techniques you have learned, and then learn a new demon-breaking knife method. Crazy Knife Ancestor said lightly.
"New Demon Breaking Sword Technique, do you want to forget what you learned before?" Yang Zhan asked puzzled.
"Do you still remember the battle of Shangyang Mountain that you told you about?" "Crazy Sword Ancestor said: "After Shang Yangshan was defeated by the swordsman in his last move, I thought about it for twenty years in this cave heaven valley before I could get a glimpse of the root of that defeat. ”
"What is it? Master. Yang Zhan asked.
"That's what the swordsman said, martial arts are only fast and fierce, and they are inevitably limited to one move and one style, once they are limited by one move and one style, they can't bring martial arts to the extreme. This is the case with all things in the world. Only by starting from the way of heaven and earth can we do our best. Crazy Knife Ancestor looked up to the sky and said.
Yang Zhan nodded as if he didn't understand.
Then the Crazy Knife Ancestor faded off the iron rope, jumped into the middle of the grass, and completely beat the new Demon Breaking Knife Technique. I saw that the Ghost Eye Crazy Knife suddenly fluttered a lot in the hands of the Crazy Knife Ancestor, and the blade was also a lot more restrained. Yang Zhan felt that his power was greatly reduced, and he couldn't help but hesitate.
"Zhan'er, don't be distracted, look carefully. The Crazy Knife Ancestor reminded and fought again.
Yang Zhan then wrote it down attentively. But for the doubts in his heart, he couldn't help but ask.
"Master, I saw the new Demon Breaking Sword Technique you just used, and I feel that the power is not as good as before, and the number of paths has become erratic, why is this?"
"Come, you use this knife to attack with the Thirty-one Demon Breaking Knife Method, and use this dead branch to deal with the new Demon Breaking Knife Method. Crazy Knife Ancestor said.
Where did Yang Zhan dare to face his master.
"Even if you make a move, don't say that there are dead branches in your hands, even if you are bare-handed, you will hurt me and get nothing. Crazy Knife Ancestor said.
But Yang Zhan still didn't dare to use a knife on his master.
"Bastard, you don't listen to what you say about being a teacher, you can't believe in being a teacher, do you?" The Crazy Sword Ancestor got angry and scolded.
Only then did Yang Zhan dare to use the Devil's Eye Crazy Knife and attack the Crazy Knife Ancestor with the Demon Breaking Knife Method. This set of knife techniques Yang Zhan has learned is very familiar, plus there are divine soldiers in hand, suddenly the sword wind in the valley is everywhere, or destroy the withered and decayed, cut countless trees, or break gold and gravel, and draw bursts of sparks; Yang Zhan couldn't believe it, and he was even more unconvinced, so he used the most powerful move of the Demon Breaking Sword Technique to attack head-on, and in an instant, the dust and sand and fallen leaves in the valley rose from the ground. However, the Crazy Knife Ancestor used a trick to deal with the Demon Shadow, only to see the branch in the hand of the Crazy Knife Ancestor passing through the ghost eye crazy knife, pointing straight at Yang Zhan's chest, and the knife in Yang Zhan's hand was also knocked to the ground by the shock of the branch in an instant.
Yang Zhan's mouth was numb, and he couldn't believe the scene just now, how did the master's branch avoid the ghost eye mad knife stabbing him? And how did he shake off the ghost eye mad knife at the moment when he clicked it? And it was clear that his own sword technique was extremely fast and powerful, but he lost to the master's new demon breaking knife technique, which was obviously less powerful, Yang Zhan couldn't figure it out.
"Zhan'er, do you believe it now?" said the Crazy Knife Ancestor.
Yang Zhan had no choice but to admit defeat.
Next, Yang Zhan devoted himself to cultivating the new Demon Breaking Knife Method, but the new Demon Breaking Knife Method had the same moves as the old Demon Breaking Knife Method, and Yang Zhan returned to the path of the old Demon Breaking Knife Method halfway through the fight. Where did the Crazy Knife Ancestor look down and scolded Yang Zhan for being stupid.
"The new Demon Breaking Knife Method is based on the old Demon Breaking Knife Method, but the idea is completely different, the old Demon Breaking Knife Method is sharp, and it is extremely fast and very old and spicy moves, and it strikes first everywhere; The essence of learning lies in the fact that you have to forget the old Demon Breaking Knife Method. The Crazy Knife Ancestor said bitterly.
Yang Zhan didn't seem to understand, and practiced according to his master's words, although it didn't go well, but over time, he slowly found the way.
Seeing that Yang Zhan had slowly embarked on the path of a new knife technique, the Crazy Knife Ancestor began to teach the internal strength and heart method. Yang Zhan has practiced the Demon Breaking Knife Method in the past two years, and his internal strength has increased greatly, and after this bit of master's adjustment, his internal strength has been even more refined.
After another three springs, summers, autumns and winters, Yang Zhan had completely mastered the New Demon Breaking Sword Technique, and Ling Yundu's skill was also able to enter and exit the Cave Heaven Valley a few times. At this time, the young man who had just entered the valley was already tall and handsome, and his spirit was magnificent. In the late autumn of this year, the Crazy Knife Ancestor suddenly came to Yang Zhan with great energy, and after admiring Yang Zhan's knife skills, he said again: "As the third sample leader of the teacher, after you practice the new Demon Breaking Knife Technique, you have enough internal strength, you can put down the Ghost Eye Crazy Knife and replace the knife with your palm." Zhan'er, you put down the ghost eye mad knife and try it. ”
Yang Zhan followed the instructions of the Crazy Sword Ancestor, concentrated his strength, and suddenly the jujube tree opposite was cut off.
"It's a pity for a date tree. Yang Zhan couldn't help but say.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Crazy Knife Ancestor smiled.
"Then Master will have to eat a few fewer dates. Yang Zhan said regretfully.
"I've been eating for forty or fifty years, and I'm tired of eating, and I'm tired of eating. The Crazy Knife Ancestor said disapprerovingly: "Zhan'er, you have learned all the kung fu of being a teacher, and there is nothing left to teach you as a teacher." You can go out of the mountain, remember the two wishes entrusted to you by your teacher. ”
As soon as he heard that the master was going to let him leave, how could Yang Zhan stand it, in the past six years, although the Crazy Sword Ancestor was strict, he finally treated himself well. What's more, Master is dying in his twilight years, how can he be willing to leave?
"I won't leave Master, I won't leave Dongtian Valley, I will serve Master until a hundred years later. Yang Zhan knelt in front of his master, and his eyes became red as he spoke.
"Silly boy, you are now past the age of the weak crown, how can you still be like a child. The Crazy Knife Ancestor hurriedly helped Yang Zhan up, stared at Yang Zhan for a long time, and finally laughed proudly: "Hahaha...... Today, I see that my disciples have done my true preaching, and I am very happy for my teacher. I don't have any regrets in this life, hahaha......"
Yang Zhan looked at the master so happily, and he was also very pleased.
Gradually, the laughter of the Crazy Sword Ancestor became deeper and deeper like the tide receding, until it could no longer be heard. Yang Zhan looked at the Crazy Knife Ancestor in surprise, only to see a smile on his withered old face, and he fell down stiffly. Yang Zhan grabbed the Crazy Knife Ancestor and called out again and again: "Master, Master, Master......"
But the old man, who had been emaciated by the vicissitudes of life, never responded to him again, and never again responded to him. The Crazy Knife Ancestor generation of masters ran out of oil.
Yang Zhan knelt in front of his master in agony for a day and a night, and this cry was heartbreaking, echoing in the vast valley.
"Master and Sumeru Zen Master for more than 30 years, although irritable Zen Master nagging, but always as a friend, now the disciple will bury you with Sumeru Zen Master as a companion, there are people under the nine springs to speak, so it is no longer lonely. After Yang Zhan buried the Crazy Knife Ancestor, he bowed to the two Ancestors three times, and then went to the grave of the white ape to worship again. Then put away the ghost-eyed mad knife and stepped on Lingyundu straight into the sky.
