Chapter 491: A Generation of Grandmasters

In fact, Shen Yixian has his own plans, since their identities have been exposed, then let it be, say goodbye to Princess Liqisi, Shen Yixian left the inn and went straight to the Fuzhenguan Hall with the "red-faced Jiao" Jiang Qinghan and Shen Mengrui. Where is the main arena of the martial arts competition, it is said that Chengzu Zhu Di also came here to watch the game cordially, and he must be heavily guarded.

"Xiao Sheng" Shen Yixian understood Ou Lingtian's thoughts, "Tai Chi Whirlwind Sword" Ou Lingtian figured out that the guΓ² competition achieved the status of martial arts overlord, in fact, he thought that if he could get the "martial arts overlord" plaque issued by the saint himself, Zhu Di would not dare to take action against them, otherwise the prestige of the imperial court would no longer exist. Second, I want to sue Zhu Di, it is not so easy to easily exterminate the King of Huashan, you have to pay a great price, can the imperial court afford this price? Third, Ou Lingtian has already known from the "Narcissus" Xue Nanyan where Zhu Di is going to use the "Qin Saint" Chen Fengjiao to use strange tricks to put them to death, but if he wants to defeat the "Kunlun Xuanhan Knife", there is only one chance for Chen Fengjiao. This woman is very mysterious, people in the rivers and lakes only know that she is a stunning artist, and the rebound pipa skills of the "Qin Saint" even surpass that of the "Dance Saint" You Qianrou. As for whether she can do martial arts, and what kind of Cheng dΓΉ is powerful, it is not clear.

Shen Yixian understands that since Ming Chengzu Zhu Di chose her, it means that this Chen Fengjiao must have superhuman ability, otherwise a young woman takes on such a heavy responsibility and kills the "glacier saint" Ou Hanbing, isn't it a fool's dream.

Passing by Chen Fengjiao, Shen Yixian clearly felt the momentum emanating from this mysterious woman, her heart was in great contrast with her appearance, her appearance was calm and relaxed, fluttering like a fairy, but her heart was extremely restless, giving people an aggressive momentum, and the katana she carried on her body was not an ordinary knife, it was a divine product. You can feel the murderous aura hidden inside the scabbard.

"Qin Sheng" Chen Fengjiao will soon know who she is, the day when they meet again will not be too long, both sides are exploring each other's bottom, Chen Fengjiao's first shot will definitely not drag the mud and water, because she knows her relationship with Ou Hanbing, and the two sides will not fight each other to the death, at most it is just a close contest, from which to find out their weaknesses.

"Xiao Sheng" Shen Yixian felt the pressure.

"Red-faced Jiao" Jiang Qinghan looked at Shen Yixian and asked, "Shen Gongzi, you have something on your mind." ”

Shen Yixian smiled bitterly and did not answer.

Jiang Qinghan whispered: "Shen Gongzi, 'Qin Saint' Chen Fengjiao is already terrifying. The two people around her are not idle people, they both have deep martial arts, but they are hidden and others can't find out, those who come are not good, and those who are good don't come. ”

Shen Yixian nodded in admiration, "Red-faced Jiao" Jiang Qinghan is extremely calm-headed, sometimes it is amazing, you will have a sense of security with him, and he is a trustworthy friend. Shen Yixian also asked, "Can you know how their martial arts are?"

"It's not certain yet, but they all have deep internal skills, and you have to try to know. ”

This is the truth, Shen Yixian is not asking. turned around and said to Shen Mengrui: "Sister, I really warn you again, if you say too much, you will lose, although we escaped a catastrophe, we also exposed our identities." Mengrui you know we're not here to provoke, you'd better keep the 'Dragon Scale Knife' away and don't cause any more trouble. Otherwise, we'll send you back. ”

Shen Mengrui also knew that she was in trouble, so she obediently stopped talking.

In the afternoon, they came to the main hall of the Restoration Temple. The main hall of Fuzhenguan was built in the tenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, also known as the "Patriarch's Palace", which is the main building of the Fuzhenguan god area, and is also the climax of the entire building complex. Through the guΓ² Jiuqu Yellow River wall, Zhaobi, Dragon and Tiger Hall and other buildings of the foreshadowing rendering, in the second courtyard protrudes a high platform, on the high platform is the Fuzhen View Hall, the magnificent hall makes people feel mighty, solemn, solemn, suddenly born a sense of piety.

The area of the square on the high platform of the second courtyard of the Fuzhen Temple is not small, it can accommodate thousands of people, it has begun to set up the ring of the competition and the stands for watching the game, there is the Ming army guarding, do not recognize the idlers approaching, can only watch from afar, because Ming Chengzu Zhu Di wants to come in person, the defense measures are very strict, and then there are seven or eight days when the competition will officially begin, take precautions, and the defense work is very important.

It was getting late, Shen Yixian was looking for a quieter inn to stay, they were not worried about being harassed now, after all, this was the holy land of Wudang, and there were troops stationed in the Ming Dynasty, although many people from the rivers and lakes arrived in advance, but no one dared to mess around.

Early the next morning, Shen Yixian and the others came to the Yuxu Palace in Wudang Mountain. According to legend, Zhang Sanfeng has been familiar with reading scriptures since childhood, and went to Jintaiguan in Baoji, Shaanxi Province to learn the art of health preservation and life extension, and later came to Wudang Mountain Yuxu Palace Wubian Shujie Maoan to cultivate into the inner Dan Dafa, and created the Wudang inner boxing. The Wubian Tree Knot Thatched Nunnery is still there, and the Wudang faction is known as the Sect of the Inner Family, and its exercises are characterized by strong muscles and bones, and luck skills. Emphasizing the cultivation of internal strength, paying attention to static braking, overcoming rigidity with softness, winning long with short, fast with slow hitting, luck with intention, luck with qi, and biasing towards femininity. The main breath, with short hands, Wudang Gong is not the main attack, but it should not be lightly violated.

Naturally, this is just Zhang Sanfeng's wishful thinking, and later generations will carry forward Wudang Kung Fu, and then Taijiquan, Baguazhang, Xingyi Boxing and other internal boxing are all developed from Wudang internal boxing. The rule of not attacking was also completely destroyed, and Ou Lingtian's "Taiji Whirlwind Sword" and Wudang Taiji Sword Sect Li Yikun and other Wudang factions practiced one move to defeat the enemy, killing people invisibly.

Yuxu Palace is one of the largest palaces in the Wudang Mountain complex. Located at the foot of the South Mountain in Laoying, Taoism refers to Yuxu as the residence of the Jade Emperor. Because the true martial god is the "Jade Void Master". When the Ming Yongle period built Wudang Mountain, here is the base camp, so it is commonly known as the "old camp palace", there is an army stationed, and the Wudang who lives here is selected by the emperor to mention the official to the six products.

Due to the extraordinary period, there are more Ming troops in Yuxu Palace, and from time to time you can still see people from Jinyi Wei walking around patrolling, and there is also a Jinyi Wei official wearing a unicorn suit, which should be on duty. The costumes of Jinyiwei are strictly regulated, with first-grade bullfighting, second-grade flying fish, third-grade python, fourth, fifth-grade unicorn, sixth, seventh-grade tiger, and biao. The general soldiers wore blue cotton armor, and their appearance was majestic and proud, which was easy to distinguish from the ordinary Ming Military Region.

Jiang Qinghan said: "Even the Jinyi Guard is here, it seems that Zhu Di attaches great importance to this martial arts competition." ”

Shen Yixian nodded and said: "He is a drunkard, he doesn't mean to drink, the imperial court seems to have deployed heavy troops here, so he has to send out this information as much as possible, and tell the king of Huashan to be prepared." ”

"Sword God" Shen Mengrui shook his head and said: "Brother, are you a little nervous, the imperial court's deployment of heavy troops is not specifically aimed at us, at least they don't dare to act rashly before the competition, otherwise we would have been arrested a long time ago." Brother, did you find that someone is following us, you take a closer look, is it a little familiar? ”

Shen Yixian looked in the direction she hinted at, and sure enough, there was a person who flashed by, but Shen Yixian still saw it, it was one of the two under the "Qin Saint" Chen Fengjiao, who acted so fast that he disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

Shen Mengrui was right, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di had no intention of arresting them, Shen Yixian slowly began to understand that Zhu Di was playing a game of wanting to capture and indulge, he wanted Chen Fengjiao to know the details of his opponent, know himself and his opponent, and be invincible. So Zhu Di would not choose this time to do it, Shen Yixian smiled bitterly, he was a bit of a soldier.

Coming to the Wubian Shujie Thatched Nunnery, it still retains its original appearance, a simple thatched hut, leaking air everywhere, it is hard to imagine how the generation of grandmasters stayed in it and cultivated to become a master. Zhang Sanfeng has refined Taoist scriptures, and the names and numbers of the internal boxing techniques he founded, such as Taijiquan, Bagua Boxing, Xingyi Boxing, Five Elements Boxing, Pure Yang Boxing, Mixed Yuan Boxing, Xuanwu Stick, etc., are all derived from Taoist scriptures.

Legend has it that when Zhang Sanfeng cultivated Wudang Mountain, he was obsessed with the cultivation of the "teacher", but he never understood the principle of Taijitu, one day, Zhang Sanfeng was meditating in the cave behind Wudang, and heard the call of magpies outside. He followed the sound out of the hole and found a snake and a magpie wrestling. I couldn't help but sit down and take a closer look, and found that when the magpie attacked the snake's head, the snake used its tail to fight it back. When a magpie attacks the tail of a snake, the snake uses its head to attack the magpie. When a magpie attacks the middle of a snake, the head and tail of the snake come together to flank the magpie. Eventually, the magpie that wanted to eat snake meat had to flee.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Sanfeng seemed to have an understanding, isn't this the principle of the mutual transformation of Tai Chi Yin and Yang that I have repeatedly consulted. It turns out that the truth of Tai Chi is in nature. Nature, harmony, yin and yang interchange. And what could be better than this natural thing?

So, Zhang Sanfeng followed the truth of his natural changes, combined with his cultivation of the inner pill skill. With the Tai Chi Yin and Yang taught by Taoism as the body, the five elements of the eight trigrams for the use, the "River Map" and "Luo Shu" as the scriptures, the Bagua and the Nine Palaces as the weft, and the synthesis of the Tai Chi Boxing Five Elements Bagua and Thirteen Styles, highlighting the characteristics of "performing the Tao with martial arts, showing martial arts with the Tao". As a result, Taijiquan was established as the theoretical basis of Taoist Taiji, Yin and Yang, and Neidan Yuanqi. Ideologically, he advocates "double cultivation of life" and the combination of training and cultivation. Follow the natural laws of the human body, with movement and stillness, both form and spirit. It especially highlights the thoughts of being quiet and natural, weak and indisputable, and free and easy. It has formed a method of self-cultivation and leading to the avenue. It is also a martial art for physical fitness and self-defense

Looking at the thatched hut where the master lived, Shen Yixian thought about it, and his hands moved slowly and involuntarily, the inner fist was as quiet as Mount Tai and as soft as a spring willow, but it was soft and rigid, static and moving, implicit but not revealing, ever-changing. To put it bluntly, it is actually to use static braking, to overcome rigidity with softness, to combine rigidity and softness, and to strike later. (To be continued......)
