Chapter 12: The Cave of the Scriptures

The old patriarch's words contain a lot of information, like the 'Broken Void' Qin Dynasty has only been seen in Mr. Huang Yi's fantasy novels, and the 'Martial Dao', from ordinary fighting techniques to the 'Dao', even jumped out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements, no matter how you look at it, the old patriarch is telling mythological stories.

Qin Chao didn't think it was weird.

Although the words of the old patriarch are mysterious, there are already some records in the "History of Jianghu", and since he Qin Dynasty can be reborn and come to this world, what is the difference when he hears the broken void and jumps out of this world.

"Would you like to?" the old patriarch stared at the Qin Dynasty.

Qin Chao also stared at the old patriarch with big eyes.

Suddenly.

Qin Chao grinned.

"Okay, Grandpa Patriarch, if you don't have anything else, Xiao Chao is going to play. Qin Chao said crisply. The old patriarch was stunned: "Chao'er, don't mess around! Grandpa told you something big." Qin Chao rolled his eyes: "I said patriarch grandpa, we are all people with the identity of the head and face, is it good to save some face for both sides, why do you have to put it bluntly? Isn't this obvious, patriarch grandpa, you want to be coaxed, even bluffed, fool the little court, but you don't ask who the little brother is, that is the ancestor of the fool, can you fool it? Xuewen is to practice martial arts, do you really think that Xiaochao is very surprised? I am acting with you, I knew that this was a trick when I heard it for the first time. "You kid!" Old Patriarch Qin couldn't help but laugh with round eyes.

"Grandpa really didn't fool you. ”

"Well, stop making international jokes. As soon as Qin Chao turned around, he was about to go up the ladder.

The old patriarch grabbed him: "Child, don't be busy walking first, grandpa asks you, if grandpa doesn't laugh with you, are you willing to learn literature?" Qin Chao blinked and looked at the old patriarch with big eyes: "This answer has no meaning, learning those words, memorizing those poems, and reading those boring articles on benevolence, righteousness and morality, just to practice martial arts, patriarch grandpa, do you think you can really fool me?" Brother Xiao Chao refused to answer uselessly, unless he ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless there is evidence. ”

"Evidence?" the old patriarch frowned.

Qin Chao squinted and smiled: "Patriarch Grandpa, let me ask you, the first emperor ruled the world, before Qin, was there a martial arts?"

"Do you still know Qin Shi Huang?" the old patriarch first glanced at Qin Chao in surprise before he said, "Yes!" "Then did Confucius have internal exercises before?" Qin Chao asked again. "Yes!" "Before that, could the Zhou Dynasty have Shang or Wu, Yin before Shang and Wu, and Cangjie before making characters?"

The old patriarch looked at the Qin Dynasty even more strangely, Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were eight hundred years of Zhou, before Zhou was Shang, before Shang was Yin...... Not to mention that eight-year-olds don't know about these histories, even adults and elders know very little. "I'm afraid that the gentleman in the private school said that he showed his mouth, this kid has a good memory, and he remembers it all in his heart. The old patriarch nodded in his heart.

"Child, I know what you mean, but I'll let you learn to write, not just to read. The old patriarch squinted his eyes, "Literacy, memorization of the Four Books and Five Classics, reading through the Confucian classics, and most importantly, making you proficient in the use of the tool of writing." ”

"Do you know how the internal power comes from?"

"You ask me if Zhou can have martial arts, Yin Shang can have them, and Cangjie can have them before, I can tell you for sure, they also have internal skills, but those are extremely superficial internal skills, and the best exercises at that time are not even as powerful as one percent of the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife Exercises of my Qin family. ”

When the old patriarch said this, his eyes lit up, and his eyes stared at Qin Chao like a tiger: "The real great prosperity of martial arts is after the appearance of words. ”

Qin Chao nodded: "The text carries the Tao, and Brother Xiao Chao understands." ”

"It's not what you think!"

The old patriarch snorted and continued to say in a deep voice: "Do you think that writing can record martial arts and techniques, so that more people can learn martial arts, so martial arts can flourish?"

Qin Chao pretended to be stunned, isn't that so?

"Wrong!"

"You're completely wrong!" the old patriarch's eyes flashed, "Wen Yizai said, this is right, it can be loaded...... He is not a martial artist, but 'three graves, five classics, eight ropes and nine hills'. ”

"Three tombs, five classics, eight ropes and nine mounds?" Qin Chao looked at the old patriarch.

"The three tombs are the relics left by the ancient three emperors. The old patriarch said in a deep voice, "And the five classics are the knowledge of the five emperors of ancient times, and the nine hills are miscellaneous folk learning, which are all fragments, and as for the eight suo, it is based on the ancient emperor's "Hetuluo Book" to differentiate and evolve, and there are three "total eight suo", they are "Guizang Yi", "Lianshan Yi" and "Zhou Yi". ”

"Hetuluoshu?" and "Zhou Yi"?" Qin Chao blinked.

The Qin Dynasty has never heard of what the old patriarch said about "Returning to Tibet" and "Lianshan Yi", but the names of "Hetuluo Book" and "Zhou Yi" are like thunder, "Zhou Yi" is the "Book of Changes" in the previous life, and the Qin Dynasty knows a little bit about some of the contents, but this really has nothing to do with martial arts.

"Zhou Yi is valued by Confucianism!"

""Lianshan Yi" is valued by Taoists!"

""The Eternal Return to Tibet" is valued by Buddhism!"

"The fragments of "Nine Hills" are valued by all the sons and hundreds of schools!"

"But they ...... What is described is either the operation of the universe, or the nature of heaven and earth, or the cultivation of benevolence and righteousness, and the worship of virtue and propriety...... In short, it is by no means martial arts. When the old patriarch said this, he smiled slightly, and looked at the ancestral spiritual position next to him, "Come, child, grandpa will first take you to see my Qin family's scripture collection 'White Tiger Cave'." ”

"Qin Family's Scripture Collection?" Qin Chao's eyes lit up.

Shaolin Scripture Pavilion, Murong Family's Huanshi Water Pavilion, Wang's Lang Yu Cave, Tianlong Babu Many martial arts families have Scripture Pavilion, and most of this Scripture Pavilion is a martial arts secret, and the Qin family ...... Qin Chao suddenly looked forward to it.

"Follow me!"

The old patriarch took three steps to the left and passed through the gap between the ancestral spiritual positions, and came to the back of the shrine, Qin Chao's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a painting hanging on the wall behind the shrine, which was half a zhang high, and the end of the painting actually fell directly to the ground, which was a majestic picture of the white tiger descending the mountain.

"This white tiger painting is not just a painting, look at it, it is open like this. ”

The old patriarch stretched out his hand and pressed it on the two eyes of the white tiger, and with a strong push, the whole painting slowly moved, but it was a stone door.

"Come in!"

As soon as he entered the cave, the old patriarch lit the torches on the cave wall, and as soon as the three torches were lit, the whole cave suddenly lit up, the blue bricks were paved, and the walls of the cave were painted with yellow mud.

"So many books?"

The hole in front of me is the size of four rooms, and there are more than ten bookshelves in rows, and the shelves are full of rolled brocade silk, more than ten bookshelves, three rooms are the size, and in the previous life it was a small library, a small bookstore.

But this is the ancient times of the Northern Song Dynasty......

"Haha!" the old patriarch smiled, his face was full of pride, "My Qin family's scripture collection pavilion is almost comparable to the royal library in terms of size, but don't be too surprised, there are many of them here that are useless, and some of them are pictures and the like." The old patriarch held a torch and walked to the first bookshelf, and the Qin Dynasty also walked over, only to see a small yellow paper pasted at the end of each pavilion on the shelf, with small characters written on it.

"This is the book that my Qin family has collected over the generations. The old patriarch picked up a roll of brocade silk and spread it out and laid it on the table beside him. Qin Chaolian looked over, there were square inches of traditional Chinese characters written vertically on it, and there was no punctuation and teasing, and after a few glances, it was very jerky to read. "You can't read it. The old patriarch smiled and said, "It is a book from the Warring States Period, the original scroll is a bamboo slip, and it was copied on the brocade forging later, and here ......" The old patriarch pointed to a bookshelf on the right, "What era the articles recorded in the book here originally came from, no one can figure it out, in short, it is very ancient, and it is not something we can read lightly." ”

The Qin Dynasty turned around twice at random, flipped through several scrolls, and now each volume was very difficult to understand.

"Look here......" At this time, the old patriarch suddenly picked up a roll of brocade and spread it out. "Well, this ......" Qin Chao looked at the words on it, his mouth opened slightly, the words on it seemed to be drawing abstract line drawings, some could be recognized as 'birds, insects, fish', but many of them were simply ghost drawings.

"Do you know?" asked the old patriarch.

Qin Chao groaned slightly, then shook his head, and the old patriarch's eyes suddenly smiled: "These words are ancient words, and there are almost no people in the world who can understand them all, so it's strange if you know them." ”

Qin Chao's eyes narrowed and said, "This was originally written on the beast bone turtle shell, or the inscription, right?"

The old patriarch glanced at Qin Chao strangely.

"That's right, it's written on the bone shell, how can you see it, kid?" the old patriarch asked strangely, and then smiled, "These are all words unearthed from the Yin Shang cemetery, we have deciphered a few words, but most of them can't be deciphered at all, so we can only leave it to future generations to work hard." ”

The Qin Dynasty had a strange expression, the Qin family, an ancient martial arts family, actually wanted to decipher the oracle bone inscription.

"Although there are many books in this cave, they are all unorganized, and it is obscure to read. The old patriarch walked along the shelf.

"And a hole?"

Qin Chaolian followed, and there was a door in the innermost corner, and when he pushed it open, there was actually a lamp inside.

"Huh, Shuran is here?"

A figure walked out of the entrance of the cave, dressed in a long robe and green clothes, with a gray-white beard, an old man with a clear face, this old man saw the Qin Dynasty next to the old patriarch of Qin at a glance, and was slightly stunned.

The Qin Dynasty was also stunned.

"Grandpa Jing!" Qin Chaolian shouted, and there were some doubts in his heart.

There are many strange people in Qinjiazhai, but if you want to say the strangest, the most incomprehensible, Qin Shujing is one, it can be said that the people in the village have never seen him show his martial arts, and he always enters the main hall of the ancestral hall in a Confucian robe, and he has disappeared for many years, and many young people in the village, especially children, don't even know what to call this old man. The Qin Dynasty also has a good memory, I have seen it once, and I remember the name after hearing someone talk about it once, so I know the name of the old man.

"Doll, are you ......" Qin Shujing looked at Qin Chao suspiciously.

The old patriarch smiled: "He is Qin Sheng Dynasty. ”

"Qin Sheng Dynasty?" Qin Shujing was even more puzzled.

"This child's father is Qin Ledao, my Qin Jiale is the first good man, his mother is Dao Yufeng, the sister of Princess Zhennan. The old patriarch even said, and Qin Shujing showed a sudden look: "It seems to be a little impression, oh yes, that couplet of 'one township and two miles with three masters', the naughty doll that drove Zhou Wei away is called Qin Dynasty, right?

"Shujing!" shouted the old patriarch.

Qin Shujing then came to his senses: "Patriarch, you brought him here, isn't it ......." ”

The old patriarch nodded.

"Alright, kid, come in. "Qin Shujing made his debut.

This cave is about the size of two rooms, and there are seven bookshelves, not only brocade silk, but also paper books.

"Son, you know a lot of words now. The old patriarch put a book in front of the Qin Dynasty, and as soon as the Qin Dynasty opened it, it was still in traditional characters, without punctuation and teasing, and it was a little jerky to read, but the Qin Dynasty read it carefully, and still understood the meaning inside, which described natural phenomena such as mirages, wind, rain, and snow, and here attributed these natural phenomena to the manipulation of heavenly ghosts and gods.

"Look at this volume again!" the old patriarch put another book in his hand.

But it is a book that describes the laws of the sun, moon and stars, and the description of the laws is not too wrong, but the explanation is equally absurd.

And then-

Rites of passage!

The tide rises and falls!

Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness!

......

It is full of books describing everything in the world, which is like a small encyclopedia, except for novels and martial arts.
