Chapter 33: Coincidence
Yang Guo picked up the steamed bun and looked at it, and found that the steamed bun in his hand was black like an iron lump, it was estimated that it was made of inferior bran, and when he got closer, there was a musty smell, he couldn't help sighing, and said: "Father-in-law, don't eat this dry food." On the way here, I saw a river, not too far from here, why don't we eat grilled fish?"
Ouyang Feng nodded and said, "You have injuries on your body, just wait here, I'll catch the fish." He leaped to the top of a large tree, and then stepped on the branches and fell together in the air, up and down.
Yang Guo saw that his burly figure was as light as a bird, and he couldn't help but feel envious, and said in his heart: "It turns out that after practicing martial arts to a high level, it is such a situation, such a light martial arts body method is really worthy of the word 'light', I don't know when I will be able to reach such a realm?"
Ouyang Feng stood on the branch and looked around for a while, he quickly determined the direction of the river, he tapped down on his toes, bent the branch under his feet, and when the branch bounced back, his body had floated like a leaf to another tree outside the zhang, and then continued to borrow his strength to come to the third tree. So he walked on the branches, and in a moment disappeared from the distant treetops.
Yang Guo retracted his gaze, and there was an indescribable sense of loss in his heart. In the past year since he entered the Quanzhen Sect, whether it is internal or external strength, his progress has far exceeded that of his disciples of the same generation. Originally, he was still a little complacent about this, but when he compared it with a top master of Ouyang Feng's level today, this gap was revealed, and it was no exaggeration to say that there was a world of difference.
If he can cultivate Jin Yangong to the Dacheng realm of "Feiyan Stepping on Branches", he will not lose his luster compared to Ouyang Feng. But this requires him to improve his internal strength, otherwise it can only be a fantasy. However, the internal strength of the Quanzhen Sect is a steady and steady path, if he does not have a special opportunity, he will continue to practice step by step, and it is estimated that there will be twenty or thirty years of polishing and hard work to be boiled.
Although the light skills of the ancient tomb school are unique in the world, the key lies in the words "strange" and "skillful", which is not an upright way. Lin Chaoying is a genius of Tianzhong, she created the "Jade Girl Sword Technique" to crack the Quanzhen Sword Technique, and created the way of double cultivation to catch up with the internal strength of the Quanzhen School, all of which follow the idea of "winning the right with wonder". Xiaolongnu is far inferior to Qiu Qianren's internal strength, but she can still compete with her for a long time above the light work, which is also due to this reason.
"Why don't I change to the light skills of the Tomb Sect?" This thought flashed in Yang Guo's mind, and Yang Guo couldn't help but laugh and secretly blamed himself for not having concentration. Historically, "righteousness" is the way of nature, and "winning with wonder" is just a shortcut, and the hidden danger is very great.
It's like climbing a mountain, one person follows a rocky path and the other climbs over a wall. Although the former is slow, it is better to be stable, and the latter is certainly fast, but a negligence and mistake will be the end of broken bones, which is really not what Yang Guo wants.
What's more, the light skills of the Tomb School need to be accompanied by the foundation of the Tomb School's internal strength, and practicing the internal skills of the Tomb School not only requires restraint and desire, but also has many hidden dangers.
"Hey, forget it, it's better not to be too greedy, you can be happy if you are content. Why do I have to be that supreme master? As long as I have a skill, I can settle down in this troubled era, and there is nothing wrong with living an ordinary life, and besides, isn't this also the goal I have been fighting for in my previous life?" He cleared his thoughts, and soon regained his feelings, and no longer lingered on the level of martial arts.
At this time, there is still half a remnant sun left in the western sky, and the light through the trees has no scorching meaning, but it makes people feel warm in their hearts. Yang Guo lay down on the boulder, his head resting on his arms, lazily enjoying the afterglow of the sunset. I don't know how long it took, but he suddenly jumped up with an "ah".
"Oh no, I just thought that Zhao Zhijing would be fine if he didn't know his father-in-law, but I forgot that after Master Qiu and Uncle Qiu heard Zhao Zhijing's report, they would probably guess the identity of their father-in-law. After all, the physical characteristics of the stepfather are so obvious, and he has such a shocking kung fu, and when the two are combined, it is easy to be recognized. The righteous father has an inseparable life-and-death enmity with the Quanzhen Sect, once Master Qiu and Uncle Qiu learn that the righteous father is here, they will have to give up everything to find the righteous father? If this is the case, what should be done?" He shuddered a little when he thought of the scene when the two sides fought, and the six sons of Quanzhen all died one by one under Ouyang Feng's hands.
"No! I must not let this happen! My father-in-law came to Zhongnan Mountain to find me, and if this causes the Quanzhen Sect to suffer great calamity, my life will be uneasy!" The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and it was difficult for him to stay here for a moment.
"The most important thing now is not to let the two of them meet, as long as I can persuade my father-in-law to return before this, if Master Qiu and Uncle Qiu ask about it afterwards, I just bite the bullet and refuse to admit it, at most I will be punished, what's the big deal?" he made up his mind, and hurriedly ran in the direction that Ouyang Feng left.
But he had just taken a few steps before he turned back.
"If I didn't find my father-in-law, but missed him, with my father's temperament at this time, he would probably go directly to the Quanzhen Sect to find me, wouldn't it be a big deal?"
After turning more than a dozen times, he suddenly felt a pain in his leg, and it turned out that he was walking faster and faster in a hurry, and before he knew it, he had used internal force to affect the wound on his leg.
When he lowered his gaze to his lap, he couldn't help but pat his head and blame himself: "How can I be so stupid? Why didn't I think of such a simple method just now?" He casually plucked a large handful of grass from the ground, and wrote on the boulder with grass juice in a hurry, "Father, I forgot to bring the fire fold, now go back and get it, and I will be back soon." ”
After leaving the words, he felt a little calmer, didn't dare to delay any longer, and rushed into the forest again. At this time, he didn't care about the wounds on his body, and mobilized all the internal forces in his body, just trying to increase his speed to the fastest.
He ran like this, and he was not more than ten feet away, and blood began to ooze from the wounds on his back and legs, falling drop by drop, but in a moment it spilled all the way.
Yang Guo ran out for more than a mile, but he never met Ouyang Feng, and he couldn't help but feel even more anxious. But as he listened closely, he didn't hear the sound of a fight nearby, so he comforted himself: "This Zhongnan Mountain is so big, trying to find a person in it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, even if Master Qiu and Uncle Qiu mobilize all the disciples of the whole sect, they will not be able to find their righteous father in a moment and a half, so why should I worry too much? Although there are many coincidences in the world, it will never happen in this matter." ”
As he was thinking, there was a sudden noise in the woods in the other direction. This made his heart suddenly lift, and he couldn't help but pound wildly. He took a deep breath, forced himself not to be cranky, and turned to run back towards the woods.
As Yang Guo approached, the sound in his ears became much clearer, and he could still hear the sound of someone scolding. He was shocked in his heart, and thought in disbelief: "Could it be that the people of the Quanzhen Sect have really found their father-in-law, and they have already handed it over at this time?"
His face turned pale as soon as he brushed it, and he didn't have time to think about it in his eagerness, and shouted loudly as he ran: "Father-in-law, don't do it! Everyone stop! Don't fight anymore!"
