Chapter 107: Yin-Yang Magical Kanli Sword Aura! (Thanks to the Cloud-Breaking Light Alliance!)
The people in the Lu Mansion were all shocked. They had never expected the situation to change like this.
Lu Wenrui, who brought Zhou Yi over, was even more surprised. He hurried over and patted Lu Zushang on the back.
"Dashang, is Benefactor the person you are looking for?"
"Uncle, that's right!"
Lu Zushang's voice was excited. Zhou Yi didn't understand the reason, but he stepped forward to help him up.
I've heard from people in the Kun Gang before that this Yiyang hero is generous in giving away his wealth, helping the weak, and is quite loyal. He is also a descendant of the Fanyang Lu family and is very famous locally.
As soon as the imperial edict for the third expedition against Goguryeo was issued by the Eastern Capital, the rebel armies in the Gushi and Dingcheng areas raised smoke and dust in Yiyang.
It was this person who recruited brave men and suppressed the chaos.
He also repelled the powerful bandits from Runan on the south bank of the Huai River, thus ensuring peace in Yiyang County.
If he wanted to be the leader of Yiyang, it would be easy.
"Master Lu, please get up. I'm new here, so you need to explain clearly. And what's going on with your master?"
Lu Zushang's emotions had not yet calmed down, so he grabbed Zhou Yi's arm and shook it up and down.
"My master's illness is incurable. Looking across the Central Plains, the only way to save him is through Master Yu's magical Yin-Yang technique."
"Where is your master now?"
"It was originally in Qingsong Temple, but that place is so remote, so I moved it to the backyard of my house."
He stretched out his hand to signal the inner court, his eyes fixed anxiously on Zhou Yi's face.
I only regret that I had a bad attitude just now. I was afraid that this person would get angry and leave, which would leave me with regrets for the rest of my life.
He still didn't make his words clear, but seeing how excited and flustered he was, Zhou Yi didn't expect him to sort out his confusion now.
"Let's go and see what's happening with your master."
"You know, if he crosses the Naihe Bridge, no matter how powerful I am, I won't be able to save him."
Lu Zushang was happy that he didn't care about the offense just now, but he was also worried about his master who had been so kind to him. He nodded repeatedly with a complicated expression.
Following the rumors, he randomly prayed:
"I just hope Lord Yan will give me some face."
Zhou Yi let out a breath, didn't answer, and followed Lu Zushang's messy steps towards the inner courtyard.
Lu Wenrui, who was traveling with them, heard their words clearly and felt very nervous.
Listen to Da Shang's opinion.
My benefactor is not an ordinary warrior, but some kind of immortal goddess who can communicate with the underworld?
This. This. This is outrageous.
My heart was in turmoil. I didn't expect that I would be saved by such a person.
It’s such a blessing, I must offer a tablet to the deceased when I get home.
Both the uncle and nephew were confused.
The house is deep and large, and after passing through several long corridors, we finally reach the place where Master Lu Zushang lives.
There were quite a few people in the compound, and several doctors were sitting in the pavilion, shaking their heads and sighing.
As soon as Lu Zushang arrived, eight or nine people surrounded him, all of whom seemed to be warriors. Their eyes passed by Lu Zushang and turned to Zhou Yi.
"Brother Lu, who is this?"
"It's Master Yi from Wuzhuang Monastery!"
Lu Zushang waved his hand and introduced.
Everyone was surprised and happy to hear this. They had been giving advice to Lu Zushang, and two of them suggested that he go to Nanyang.
Although this person is young, his reputation has long been spread from Nanyang.
Everyone was a wanderer and was quite interested in these things. After some inquiries, they found out that there was a lot of secrets. At this time, no one would underestimate someone just because of his young face.
They all came forward and raised their sleeves and clasped their fists: "Master!"
I greeted him warmly and wanted to get to know this strange man from Nanyang again.
Zhou Yi bowed, but before he could respond, Lu Zushang waved his hands towards both sides, asking everyone to disperse:
"Put aside your thoughts for now. We'll see you later. The King of Hell waits for no one. Let the Immortal take a look at my master's condition first."
"That's right, everyone, get out of the way."
"Master Song Yinzi's life hangs by a thread. He has been unconscious for a long time, and it is obvious that his soul has left his body. Please, Master, try to rescue him."
All the doctors who shook their heads and sighed stood up, as if a master had arrived, and they also came over.
I smelled medicine as soon as I entered the room. All the windows were open and the room was very bright.
An old Taoist priest lay on his back on the bed, his Taoist bun hanging down loosely, his eyes closed, and dark brown wrinkles at the corners of his eyes spreading like dead vines.
He is Lu Zushang's master, Song Yinzi.
Through the strong smell of medicine, Zhou Yi keenly sensed a familiar breath.
Come forward and take a look:
"How long has your master been unconscious?"
"Seven or eight days."
Lu Zushang said, "Master returned from Jiangdu. Initially, he was conscious and able to heal his injuries on his own. He seemed to be gradually getting better. But one day, his energy drastically declined. After two or three days, he fell into a coma."
"I never woke up again, and it's been like this until now."
"And the pulse is getting weaker and weaker. If this continues, I'm afraid that in a few days, Master's power will dissipate and he will pass away."
Although he was worried, he did not shy away from talking about life and death.
Zhou Yi responded softly, stepped forward and pointed his finger at the old Taoist priest's Danzhong acupoint.
What surprised him was
The evil aura that I felt was not here.
Zhou Laotan has made progress again?
Considering the time, it doesn't seem like it. After all, he and Zhou Laotan had just faced off against each other in the vicinity of Liuhe.
Even if Zhou Lao Tanxin had some new thoughts, he would not change the core of the Life and Death Acupoint all at once.
but
There is no doubt that this evil aura is within the old Taoist priest's body.
Things turned out as expected. To be on the safe side, after helping Song Yinzi up, he first used his true energy to protect his heart meridians, and then looked for the source of the evil.
Compared to Zhou Laotan's unbridled and domineering evil spirit, the evil spirit in the old Taoist priest's body can be said to be cunning and vicious.
but
No matter how things change, the essence remains the same. No matter how different the species is, it is still a method of planting demons in the heart of Tao.
Zhou Yi controlled his true energy and slowly explored the acupoints.
Lu Zushang and others didn't dare to breathe and just watched quietly.
At some point.
Taoist Master Song Yinzi, who was sitting, suddenly opened his eyes.
Everyone was secretly shocked, and suddenly they saw his white hair standing up in anger, and a strong gust of wind was blowing in all directions with Zhou Yisong Yinzi as the center!
The table next to the bed was completely overturned, and the various medicinal herbs, medicine utensils and teacups on the table broke the window paper.
Except for Lu Zushang, everyone else nearby fell backwards.
Lu Wenrui was standing at the back and, like the two doctors, fell backwards.
There were cries of surprise all around, and then the sounds stopped. Those who were not strong in internal energy all raised their hands to cover their faces to block the strong wind!
On the bed, Song Yinzi's eyebrows and beard flew diagonally to both sides of his cheeks.
The two men's clothes fluttered, and waves of energy burst out continuously!
suddenly
Lu Zushang shouted three times: "Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
The people around moved at the sound, and a chill and evil spirit mixed together, like a cold wind blowing from the underworld.
The wind was not strong.
But it affects people's spirit and seems to make everyone's soul tremble.
Especially for those who do not have deep internal strength and weak will, when the cold wind blows, they seem to hear the howling of ghosts and wolves, and sinister laughter.
I don’t know what kind of strange method it is, but it can actually awaken the fear deep in people’s hearts and make it materialize.
The more you think about it, the clearer you see.
For example, Lu Wenrui, who was trapped in an illusion for a moment, saw the young man in white shaking the black chains, binding the soul of Taoist Song Yinzi and pulling him back from the other side of the ghost gate.
The horrific scene inside the gates of hell was exactly the same as the scenes he had imagined in his previous fantasies, and Lu Wenrui was immediately sweating from head to toe.
It turns out that communicating between yin and yang is such a terrifying scene.
For the next period of time, he would definitely not dare to walk at night.
Lu Zushang is the second best master in Yiyang County, so his spirit and energy are naturally far superior to those of the other spectators.
He was also shocked by the scene.
I just feel that the world I have seen in the past is quite narrow.
The table was overturned just now, and the water that spilled on the ground actually solidified into ice under this cold wind. The ice melted quickly, emitting icy white mist, and in the depths of the white mist, there were flickering black smoke.
Even he felt horrified by this scene.
The room was filled with steam, and Master Yi switched his right hand to his left, pressing on the old Taoist priest's back.
At this time, another burst of energy flew out, suppressing all the mist so that they could not raise their heads and crawled out of the house close to the ground.
He changed his palm into fingers and moved them along his back to the top of his head.
Song Yinzi's cloudy eyes gradually became clear and he closed his eyes on his own.
Zhou Yi's true energy was hovering in the old Taoist priest's zenith.
This demonic energy was extremely unusual. Although it was not as strong and fierce as the demonic aura Zhou Laotan had, it was mixed with the power to confuse people's minds.
Like Subhārakān?
In order to eliminate the root of the evil, Zhou Yi took the evil root in the old Taoist priest's Tianding acupoint into his body and returned it to his own Tianding acupoint.
After careful testing, I found that it was completely honest.
At this time, he withdrew his strength and got off the bed.
Lu Zushang showed a look of joy when he found that although his master had his eyes closed, he was already meditating on the bed.
With his powerful skills, he will surely be fine after coming back to life.
"Master, how is my master doing?"
He still asked, seeking peace of mind.
"The hidden danger has been eliminated, and it will be fine after some recuperation."
After hearing this, Lu Zushang bowed deeply and said, "Thank you very much, Immortal. This kindness is too profound to be fully expressed. I will repay you slowly."
"Master Song Yinzi is also a friend of mine. Considering our friendship, I should do my best to help him."
How could anyone agree with Zhou Yi's humble words?
A bearded man sighed, "The Immortal's skills are truly eye-opening. Even the three great masters are not capable of this kind of Yin-Yang magic."
"Yeah yeah."
"In the martial arts world, there's a lot of fighting and killing. Killing is a science, and saving people is even more of a science."
Someone echoed: "No matter how high Ning Sanren's martial arts skills are, he can't pull people back from the underworld like a real person."
“…”
In order to let his master meditate quietly, Lu Zushang waved to everyone to go out.
Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
If he lets them continue to brag, I'm afraid Ning Sanren will lose his title as the number one person in the Taoist sect.
"Master Lu, can you give the Ju Kun Gang a chance to clear up this misunderstanding?"
Lu Zushang walked out of the compound with him and smiled bitterly when he heard this: “How dare I.”
"Even if this isn't a misunderstanding, with Master Yi's words, I won't bother Ju Kun again."
"I never use favors to do things, and I always follow the rules."
Zhou Yi suggested: "Let's talk it out face to face. If it's really the fault of the Ju Kun Gang, it's only natural for Hero Lu to cause trouble for them."
"All right."
Hearing his tone, Lu Zushang had no choice but to agree.
Song Yinzi was recovering from his injuries. When Zhou Yi sent Lu Wenrui out, he always felt that the other party was full of thoughts and looked at him strangely.
Lu Zushang thanked his uncle and sent someone to see him off. He then invited Zhou Yiyan to sit at the table in the living room of his mansion. Some friends from Yiyang County also came after hearing the news.
Not long.
The people from the Jukun Gang are here.
The leading man in brocade robe with a scar on the left side of his cheek was Bu Tianzhi.
Kun's men had already told him that "the Heavenly Master has arrived."
Looking towards the upper part of the living room at this moment, Bu Tianzhi felt relieved. He didn't want to have any conflict with Lu Zushang in the upper reaches of the Huai River at all.
"Guanzhu."
The deputy leader of the Kun Gang is a powerful figure, and there are many rumors about him on the river. But when he came here, he felt like he had to pay his respects to the mountain gate first.
but,
For those who have witnessed the method used to save Song Yinzi, Boss Bu's attitude is normal.
Zhou Yicai responded, and Lu Zushang stood up directly:
"Boss Bu is so powerful that he actually invited Master Yi here."
"My master is now safe and sound. There's no need to mention our misunderstanding anymore."
Bu Tianzhi said, "Our gang leader is selling information. If we don't have credibility, we won't be able to survive. Any information that comes out of our hands must be true."
"Besides, we have no grudges against Taoist Master Song Yinzi, so why would we deliberately spread false information to harm him?"
"Boss Bu is right."
Lu Zushang nodded: "But the disaster that my master suffered is indeed related to the news you spread."
"Not only did he fail to find the stone dragon in Anyi, but he ended up in the Demon Cave instead. It's simply too much of a coincidence."
Bu Tianzhi said: "What we gave Taoist Master Song Yinzi was only a rough location. Shilong is a living person, he can move, not to mention that there are many people tracking down his whereabouts."
"The Taoist priest is friends with Shilong and wanted to help him. It was just a coincidence that we ran into someone from the Demon Sect. It was definitely not an intentional plan by our gang."
"Although our two families had a conflict at the Rushui Ferry, we would never do something that would destroy our reputation."
Lu Zushang had already put the matter aside in his mind. If it was really done by the Jukun Gang, why did he need to invite the Master of Wuzhuang Temple to come?
This alone will probably cost a considerable price.
After all, not everyone can invite this temple master.
When the master suffered a disaster, he was anxious and angry, and thinking of the old grudges between the two sides, he took his anger out on the master, and naturally a conflict broke out with the Ju Kun Gang.
At this moment, in front of everyone, Lu Zushang was able to let go.
After hearing what Bu Tianzhi said, he immediately asked someone to bring tea cups.
"This matter was caused by Mr. Lu's recklessness. Boss Bu, please forgive me. I also appreciate your kindness and ask the real person to come to my house."
He glanced at Zhou Yi while speaking.
The general meaning may be: Master, you see, this is all to give you face.
Bu Tianzhi naturally would not be so arrogant as to agree to it.
He waved his hands repeatedly and said a few polite words.
Everyone smiled at each other, not only clearing up the misunderstanding but also making everyone look better.
Not long after, Lu Zushang heard from the guards in the mansion that Taoist Master Song Yinzi had woken up from his meditation and was calling him.
Lu Zushang apologized and left in a hurry.
All his friends in Yiyang County also followed him.
Zhou Yi and Bu Tianzhi walked together to the courtyard outside the hall.
"Is Lu Zushang important? Why are you wasting your time here?"
"actually."
Bu Tianzhi whispered, "This person is even more important to the Heavenly Master."
"oh?"
"From Tongbai Ferry in Huai'an County, the Huai River flows through Runan and Ruyin, and then to Shouchun in Huainan."
"In this upper reaches of the Huai River, Lu Zushang has a huge influence."
Bu Tianzhi said succinctly: "South of the Huai River are the Yiyang and Yiyang counties. Lu Zushang is well-known here as a hero. It can be said that he is the leader of these two counties."
"This man was frail and sickly as a child. It was only after he trained with his master, Song Yinzi, that he was saved from premature death and achieved what he has today. His personality was influenced by Taoism, and he behaves in a bold and unrestrained manner."
"So he doesn't like being called the Dragon Head, and calls himself the No. 1 Hero of the Fanyang Lu Clan."
"These two counties aren't very large, but they're united and strong, so bandits and foreign enemies dare not invade. The martial artists and major gangs in the county all look up to him as their leader."
After hearing what he said, Zhou Yi immediately had a deeper impression of Lu Zushang.
Bu Tianzhi smiled and said, "Lu Zushang has not yet repaid the favor he owes me this time."
"If the Runan bandits were destroyed by the Sui army, Yiyang would be able to influence the north bank of the Huai River from the south bank. With this relationship, it would be equivalent to the Heavenly Master controlling the upper reaches of the Huai River."
This is indeed good news.
"Who are the Runan bandits?" Zhou Yi stayed near Jiangdu for a while, and the news was a bit slow.
The world is changing every few days these days.
"Most of them are subordinates of the four major bandits, as well as scattered rebel forces from Lujiang and Ruyin counties, who have been integrated together."
"Some time ago, the charity granary in Huai'an County was defended, but the Rufeng granary in Runan was broken into by bandits. A large amount of rice was taken away by the bandits. They transported it along the Huai River to Xuyi and reunited with Meng Rang."
Zhou Yi combined the information from both sides and realized, "Meng Rang is fighting Lai Zheng in Xuyi. The rice grains would be useful to him."
"Yes, this rice can be sold at a high price."
Bu Tianzhi said: "But Meng Rang was played around by someone."
"I heard the latest rumor that Li Zitong has joined Meng Rang's army, and the two forces have joined forces to fight against the Sui army."
"However, Li Zitong's general Bai Xin appeared in Runan and colluded with the bandits."
"In other words, Li Zitong is collaborating with Meng Rang while making money from him. If Meng Rang were to buy information from me, I'd sell it to him for at least three hundred gold."
Li Zitong and Meng Rang are together. Did they get rejected by Lao Du?
However, what Li Zitong did was consistent with Zhou Yi's stereotype of him.
"How do you know so much about Runan's affairs?"
Bu Tianzhi looked regretful and said, "I was reselling information on both sides of the Huai River. If I hadn't been delayed by Lu Zushang, I would still be making a lot of money in Runan."
"Tianshi should know that the daughter of the Dugu family was working in Runan before, and I have to take care of the business of those families."
"You're already too busy, where's your Gang Leader Yun?"
Bu Tianzhi shrugged helplessly, "The gang leader was also in Runan a while ago, but she didn't stay. She and Dugu Ce followed the Yingshui River down from Dongdu, preparing to head to Danyang."
"This young master of the Dugu family is very conceited."
"If I had never seen the Heavenly Master, it would be fine. But after seeing him, I just feel that Master Dugu is unbearable to look at."
Zhou Yi smiled and patted his shoulder: "Children of wealthy families have hidden talents. Perhaps you, Old Bu, haven't seen their inner brilliance."
Bu Tianzhi said very truthfully: "There is no one else here, so Tianshi doesn't need to save face for him. If you want to say something nice, you can wait until you meet the grandmother of the Dugu family."
That really kind of sucks.
When facing Lao Du, this Mr. Dugu was able to take two moves without getting hurt, but he didn't dare to use the third move.
Chatted with Bu Tianzhi for a few more words.
Most of the news was related to Runan, and combined with the situation in the upper reaches of the Huai River, Zhou Yi had a lot of ideas in his mind.
"Master, my master wants to thank you."
Lu Zushang came running over in a hurry. Zhou Yi had already heard the footsteps and stepped forward to meet him.
The old Taoist priest had profound skills. After getting rid of the evil spirit and activating his qi and blood circulation, he was able to walk again.
"Meet Master Yi."
There was a hint of color on Song Yinzi's old face, which showed that he had recovered.
Zhou Yi looked at his complexion and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are exhausted. Why don't you rest for a while?"
"The old Taoist is able to survive thanks to his miraculous skills."
Song Yinzi's old eyes fixed on Zhou Yi's face: "This time, I was plotted against and almost lost my life, but it was a blessing in disguise to meet such a remarkable person as the real person."
Zhou Yi smiled, followed Lu Zushang's steps, and entered a quiet room with the old Taoist priest.
It can be seen that it was arranged by them, and the others did not follow.
"Who injured you, fellow Daoist?"
Zhou Yi was very concerned about this issue, but the old Taoist priest just shook his head.
"I was fighting with two people from the Demon Sect, so I didn't see his face. This person was very fast. He hit me with a palm and then turned and left."
"At that time, I suppressed my injuries and got rid of the two people I had fought before."
"Since I had no accurate information about Fellow Daoist Shilong and I was injured, I thought I would recover before going to look for him."
"I just returned to Guangshan. I don't think I was seriously injured. It's just that there's a strange kind of true energy in my body that's hard to get rid of."
"Suddenly one day, while meditating, my inner demons began to stir, and I felt an itch on the top of my head. This strange kind of true energy penetrated into the Baihui acupoint, and it was difficult to remove it."
"After that, I fell into a coma and nightmare, and my spirit became weaker and weaker until the real person took action and woke me up."
Thinking of this nightmarish day, Song Yinzi stroked his beard and sighed.
Zhou Yi thought about the four disciples of the Evil Emperor and felt that something didn't match.
"Those two people who fought with fellow Daoist, are they in the same group as him?"
"Definitely not."
"Otherwise, after his sneak attack, he can just pursue me. If the three of us attack together, there's no chance of me surviving."
At that moment, the two of them discussed the martial arts they used.
Those two people from the Demon Sect might be Zhou Laotan's subordinates.
The last person's origins were unclear.
Zhou Yi told him the news that the stone dragon had escaped, and a smile finally appeared on Song Yinzi's tired face.
After calming down, he thought about Zhou Yi's magical skills and couldn't help but ask Daocheng curiously.
"I wonder which classic the real person inherited from."
"The study of Huang-Lao is based on the Laozi Xianger Commentary."
Zhou Yi politely asked, "What kind of classics does Fellow Daoist Song study?"
Song Yinzi paused for a moment, and what he admitted was a little biased.
"The teachings of Huang-Lao are truly marvelous. My lineage may not have been heard of. My lineage comes from the Northern Wei Dynasty, and our founder is Yin Tong."
"Yin Tong?"
Zhou Yi's eyes lit up: "But Louguan Dao?"
Song Yinzi never expected that he would answer without thinking, it seemed that he had a deep understanding of the subject.
"It is considered a branch of Louguan Dao. Does the Master know the details?"
Lu Zushang, who was sitting on the side, did not say anything, because he felt inferior to his master for communicating with the master of Wuzhuang Temple in this way.
At least in this room, he is not of the same generation.
It is not appropriate for a half-worldly and half-Taoist person to interrupt when the two temple masters are discussing the Daocheng.
However, he also looked at Zhou Yi curiously.
No matter how miraculous this temple master is, it is impossible for him to tell them all the truths at once.
Zhou Yi pondered for a few breaths:
"It is said that Yin Tong is a descendant of Yin Gui, and entered the Louguan Dao before he was thirty. During the early years of Emperor Taiwu's Shiguang reign, he studied under Ma Jian and diligently worked for many years, receiving the Immortal's Secret Sutra, the Jade-lettered Golden Book. After that, he cultivated and practiced, and during the Taihe era, he ascended to heaven, shattering the void."
Both the master and the disciple were stunned, feeling as if their underwear had been seen through.
Zhou Yi continued, "The characteristics of Tao are emptiness, inaction, formlessness and shapelessness."
Song Yinzi sensed a familiarity and took a breath: "Could this be the Wenshi Sutra?"
"Exactly."
"I have read the Supreme Mystical Dao Wenshi Zhenjing written by Guan Yinzi. Fellow Daoist Song should be very familiar with it."
How could I not be familiar with him? He was one of the ten great heroes in the pre-Qin period and the founder of the Louguan School.
Song Yinzi's ancestor Yin Tong is here, and when he hears Guan Yinzi's name, he also calls him "Grandpa the ancestor."
"I see."
The old Taoist priest took a sip of tea to calm himself down.
"The Immortal is so knowledgeable in Taoism that even my own Taoist Master Yun has some knowledge of it."
"but."
He changed the subject, and a smile appeared on his old and tired face: "The classics I deal with are beyond the reach of real people."
Zhou Yiming realized: "It seems that it was created by Master Yin Tong."
"It is a self-created work, but it also draws on the Louguan classics such as Wenshi and Basu. It is called "Louguan Lingjian Secret Studies."
Song Yinzi said, "Back then, there was an ancient Taoism that gave rise to the True Transmission Dao, which then gave rise to the 'Laojun Temple' and the 'Daozu True Transmission'. I'm sure you also know that these two schools belong to the two sects of the Demon Sect and the Six Paths."
"Because they advocated the art of sexual intercourse between men and women, they were rejected by orthodox Taoism."
"My ancestor is somewhat related to the ancestor of the Daoist ancestor's true teachings, but because they dealt with different scriptures, they were revered differently. However, the martial arts they learned from the classics are somewhat similar."
Zhou Yi was very interested: "I wonder what kind of martial arts it is?"
"The power of Kan water and the sword technique of Li fire." Song Yinzi held his long beard with his hands.
Zhou Yi thought of Zuo Youxian's martial arts and said, "Sword energy flows together?"
Song Yinzi's white eyebrows moved slightly:
"It seems that the master of the temple is very familiar with the true teachings. If these two secret arts are practiced to a high level, they can be combined. This is how the powerful sword energy flows together."
"However, my family is a righteous inheritance, so there is no need to use the true teaching method of collecting and replenishing."
"The strength of the sword energy depends solely on the practice of orthodox Taoist profound skills."
Zhou Yi felt something was wrong, so he just asked casually.
How could one explain one's own kung fu so clearly to outsiders?
The old Taoist priest dispelled his doubts: "Are you interested in my family's martial arts?"
"this"
Zhou Yi couldn't lie. "I'm obsessed with martial arts and practice swordsmanship. How could I not be interested in advanced swordsmanship?"
"But the Dao is strictly inherited and never taught lightly. I dare not pry into the secrets of other families, and I don't want to repay a favor by asking for it, which is definitely not what I want to do."
"It's okay, as long as the real person is interested."
Song Yinzi said, "I want to exchange this sword technique with the Immortal for something."
"What is it?"
"Louguan's ancestral home, but I have a request, no copy."
Zhou Yi said: "But a single copy may not be complete."
Song Yinzi didn't care: "It doesn't matter."
Zhou Yi was puzzled: "Why is Fellow Daoist Song doing this? Does he want to rely on his ancestral home to deeply study martial arts?"
"I'm not obsessed with this. When Daoist Fellow Shilong invited me to Jiangdu to learn the Art of Immortality, I wasn't obsessed with it either."
The old Taoist priest said calmly, "My family's Taoist tradition is quite biased. Back then, Master was frustrated when discussing Taoism with others, and he was obsessed with this."
"Not everyone is like a true person and can speak out the inheritance of their own sect. In this regard, Brother Ning Dao is not as good as you. When I met Brother Ning Dao that year, he thought about it for a long time."
"So, I want to make up for the regrets left by my master. It can be regarded as a little obsession."
Zhou Yi understood.
This is not only a regret and obsession, but also a factor that affects his state of mind.
From Song Yinzi's perspective, he didn't lose out.
Zhou Yi felt that he had made a huge profit.
pity,
Many of the ancient books left by Master Jiao Wuzi were copied, and this Wenshi Sutra is a copy.
Just as I was feeling a headache and regret, suddenly an idea flashed in my mind.
At that time, a scroll of bamboo slips was found in the emperor's tomb.
Later, the little phoenix brought out the bamboo slips, which were very old and contained the Wenshi Sutra. Emperor Ding was interested in the method of true transmission of the teachings, so he studied the classics of the Louguan School.
Little Phoenix diligently holds the Tao.
Mr. Ding is a kind man who makes people cry.
Zhou Yi was always grateful and said to Song Yinzi, "My ancestors handed down a bamboo scroll. It is extremely old and its age is difficult to trace, but it records the essence of literature."
Song Yinzi's eyes lit up, "Is the master willing to exchange?"
"As long as Fellow Daoist Song doesn't feel like he's being taken advantage of, that's fine."
"I'm not at a disadvantage, and I want to thank the real person for fulfilling my wish."
The two of them each held a teacup and saluted each other.
Lu Zushang watched from the side, and in addition to his double gratitude to Zhou Yi, he also felt a sense of identification.
There is even a hint of respect from the younger generation for the elders.
There was also a gap in his normal communication with his master.
But this person, who was discussing Taoism with the master on an equal footing, seemed to have the upper hand.
From the perspective of Taoism, it is indeed not as profound as the other party's.
What’s more surprising is that he is from the Louguan Taoist family.
The two chatted for a while and their conversation was very interesting.
"Would you be willing to come to my Qingsong Temple, where I can show you my friendship?"
"I'm just worried that Fellow Daoist Song is mentally exhausted."
"Yes, I am a little weak, but it will be fine as long as I don't fight with others."
The old Taoist priest is protected by the mysterious internal skills, so he speaks with confidence.
Now Lu Zushang was anxious and said, "Master, once you and the real person leave, how can I have a feast at my house?"
"Besides, it's getting late."
"No need to be so ostentatious."
Song Yinzi said, "Master, please rest in my temple for a few days. You can ask someone to bring food over. After I entertain you, I will invite your most important friends to come to your house."
"If we add a small feast then, I will have the energy to thank them. I've worked so hard for you these days."
The master had already made all the arrangements, and Lu Zushang had nothing more to say.
Zhou Yi went out and said a few words to Bu Tianzhi, then said goodbye to Lu Zushang and went to the Taoist temple with Song Yinzi.
His small temple was quite remote. By the time they reached the southern outskirts of Guangshan, the sun had already set low in the west and sunk into the dense forest.
In the valley between the mountains, Zhou Yi saw a Taoist temple.
There are dense rows of ancient pines all around, all of which are as tall as a man's embrace. Their branches are intertwined, blocking out the clouds and the sun, leaving only a few spots of sunlight.
Although it is remote, the old Taoist priest is good at choosing places.
Zhou Yi walked closer and looked at the gate of the temple made of bamboo fences. Above the lintel hung a wooden plaque with peeling paint, on which were written the three words "Qingsong Temple".
"How is my handwriting?"
Zhou Yi saw that the last stroke of the word "松" was vigorous, as if there was a hidden sword energy.
"good."
"Among the Taoist friends from other sects that I have met, Daoist Fellow Song's calligraphy can be ranked among the top two."
Zhou Yi also saw a fellow Taoist writing on the door lintel, that was Taoist Crow.
So, it's just the two of them.
The old Taoist priest had witnessed Zhou Yi's magic and thought that he had Taoist friends all over the world. When he heard this praise, he felt a little proud.
After entering the door, he was pulled into a small hall.
He did not do anything else but went into the room and fetched an ancient book, a blank book, and some writing materials.
This is for him to copy down.
Faced with such a good thing, Zhou Yi naturally had no objection.
"Fellow Daoist, please see for yourself."
After he finished speaking, he smiled slightly and went to meditate aside.
Zhou Yi opened the "Louguan Lingjian Secret Learning". The front part was the meaning of the scriptures, and what it pursued was tranquility.
Later it was convenient to record the "Kan Water Gang and Li Fire Sword Technique".
Among all the罡气 in the world, the most common one is the external training罡气.
The method of combining Qi with Gang is extremely rare. The difference between Gang Qi and Zhen Qi is that Gang Qi is more dense, fierce and direct.
It is a different approach from the method that emphasizes subtle qi.
Therefore, when he fought with Qian Zhengrong last time, even though he used his true energy to attach to his fists and feet, he could not avoid suffering some external injuries.
To cultivate the Kan water罡, one must cultivate Huangting, Jinlu and Guanyuan. These three orifices are closely related to Dantian.
Adding the Danzhong point, this is the fourth level of Dantian.
It is the most commonly used practice method for people in the martial arts world to train Qi and gather true essence in the Ren and Du meridians.
It’s just different from Zhou Yi’s approach.
The method of Kanshui Gang is to let the Qi flow out of Dantian and go through Ren and Du meridians, and use the orthodox Xuanmen true Qi and the power of the three orifices to gather the true Qi into Gang.
As for understanding it, there is no problem at all.
However, the secret technique of Louguan Sect is not so easy to practice, especially the sword energy flow.
The Lihuo Sword Technique practices the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian, which requires innate subtle Qi and has a relatively high threshold.
Then use the Ren and Du energy to follow the Houxi acupoint to enter the Taiyang meridian, and when they flow together, it will form the Kan and Li sword energy.
Zhou Yi studied seriously.
Although he had never dealt with Zuo Youxian, he had already gained a preliminary understanding of his Ziwu Sword Energy with the help of this method.
This requirement of Taoist mysterious skills is not difficult, after all, he has the Xuanzhen Guanzang.
It is just practiced from the Twelve Meridians, which may not match the requirements of sword energy.
The Ren and Du meridians are the magic qi after the transformation of the Taoist heart. Although it is extraordinary, Zhou Yi is not sure whether he can practice this magical sword technique.
If the old Taoist priest had not been around, he would probably have been unable to resist trying it.
Don’t worry about it for now, just copy it down.
In case Xia Shu and Yan Qiu are not destined to learn the Art of Immortality, they can also practice this sword energy with him.
Zhou Yi was copying the Louguan Sutra, the old Taoist priest was meditating and regulating his energy, and everyone was busy with their own things.
In the evening, Lu Zushang came personally to deliver food.
He wanted to stay a little longer, but was driven away by Song Yinzi.
"Has your disciple also practiced this sword technique?"
"I practiced, but unfortunately I only learned half of it."
Song Yinzi shook his head while eating:
"He learned the Gang method well and possessed a strong internal Qi. Unfortunately, he was unable to learn the Lihuo Sword Technique, or perhaps he lacked the talent for swordsmanship, so he turned to knife techniques."
"Becoming a master is already a rare achievement, so there's no need to force it."
Zhou Yi asked again: "Can I teach this technique to others?"
"Can."
Song Yinzi was not worried at all: "Without the cultivation of Taoism, it is impossible to learn this sword energy."
Zhou Yi had a very leisurely time these past two days.
Discuss Taoism with the old Taoist priest and discuss the sword-wielding techniques.
Maybe they really get along well, plus he saved my life.
Song Yinzi then told him one by one some of the methods of practicing qigong, such as moving qi, gathering qi, combining qi, and using fire swordsmanship.
He has practiced this martial art for more than sixty years.
In just a few days, more and more knowledge was given to Zhou Yi.
On the fifth day, after Song Yinzi finished explaining how to overcome inner demons, Zhou Yi couldn't help but say:
"Fellow Daoist Song, you are no longer discussing the Dharma, you are preaching the truth."
The old Taoist priest said: "I just wanted to talk to you briefly, but you..."
He studied Zhou Yi's face carefully. "But you understand things so quickly, and sometimes the questions you ask inspire me."
"Firstly, you understand my unconventional Taoist tradition, which makes me feel very relieved."
"Secondly, it's difficult for me to pass on this art. Even I myself haven't been able to practice it to the final level of sword energy. It would be great if you could carry it forward."
"As for your kindness in saving my life, besides the friendship of the Dao sect, I will repay you in other ways."
Zhou Yi laughed and asked curiously, "What method is it?"
"When all the friends from the various Daoist sects gather together again, I will definitely nominate you as the number one in the Daoist sect."
The smile shifted from Zhou Yi's face to the old Taoist priest's:
"Although I know Ning Sanren, knowing him is knowing him."
"Don't."
Zhou Yi raised his palm to resist:
"I'm still far from being Ning Sanren, so don't do these things. If Ning Sanren comes to discuss Taoism with me, I can only talk to him about how to play the black game."
"I can't even imagine that scene."
Seeing the Taoist genius in front of him being humiliated, Song Yinzi grinned.
His mentality has always been good, but he has been a little hit in the past few days.
Before I even started practicing, I understood it immediately.
How can there be such a person? Really.
Fortunately, after laughing, I felt happy again.
On this day, Song Yinzi basically finished explaining the Louguan Sword Gang Tongliu.
Zhou Yi planned to stay for two more days before going down the mountain.
When night fell that day, the two were meditating in the temple.
suddenly
Their expressions changed and they opened their eyes. Song Yinzi was not in a position to use his skills, so Zhou Yi flew out of the hall and rushed straight to the pine forest on the west side!
“Quack, quack, quack~~!”
A flock of night crows flew out of the forest, breaking the quiet night in the mountains.
Zhou Yi stood on a tall pine tree. Song Yinzi walked out with a sword in hand and also jumped onto a branch.
The two looked down the mountain. It was a pitch-black night. Even with their best eyesight, they couldn't see anything in the darkness.
"This person's Qinggong is very high."
Zhou Yi shifted his gaze back from afar: "This murderous intent. Who did Fellow Daoist Song offend?"
"Maybe it's someone from the Demon Sect who I offended in the past. Knowing that I'm injured, they want to take advantage of me."
"But I didn't expect the real person to be here, so I fled without a fight."
"Fellow Daoist Song, please listen to my advice and don't stay here for the time being."
Zhou Yi said solemnly, "Let your disciple show some filial piety."
"Okay."
On the second day, the two of them went down the mountain together and returned to Guangshan City from Qingsong Temple.
At the city gate, Lu Zushang came to meet him.
Zhou Yi glanced back at Qingsong Temple.
I just felt that the person who climbed the mountain at night was not simple, but I couldn't guess his identity.
Lu Zushang held a banquet at the Lu Mansion today and also invited the leader Bu of the Jukun Gang, which was considered a public reconciliation.
As soon as Bu Tianzhi saw Zhou Yi, he immediately reported the news.
"As the abbot predicted, the rice and grain looted from the Rufeng warehouse have not yet been transported away."
Zhou Yi asked again: "Can you get it?"
“It’s difficult.”
Bu Tianzhi said: "We need a large number of troops, otherwise we won't be able to deal with these big bandits."
"Unless the abbot can convince Lu Zushang to mobilize the forces of the two counties, then it won't be difficult to reclaim the rice."
Zhou Yi thought about it and decided to give up.
It's just causing some trouble for Li Zitong, it's not worth it.
As he walked towards the Lu Mansion, he asked, "By the way, who are the Sui troops active in Runan?"
"Zhang Xutuo's."
"That's the general who killed so many people in Huai'an some time ago, You Hongda."
After Bu Tianzhi finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yi and saw that he had a strange expression.
"What's wrong?"
"No, just tell me where the rice is."
“…”
Lu Zushang followed his master's advice and did not hold a grand banquet, but he still invited several important friends.
At the first table in the Lu Mansion, he kept introducing the identities of the people around him.
There are two famous martial arts figures in the county, such as the two elders of Yingshan, Gu Lang, the number one water master of Shangming, as well as officials, such as Wang Honglie, the county magistrate of Yiyang County, and a heroic girl from Gushi.
She was Wei Jing, the daughter of Wei Qian, the Minister of the Central Secretariat of the Sui Dynasty.
Zhou Yi had some impression of her, after all, she was a celebrity who lived until the time of Wu Zetian.
In addition, there are two Taoist friends.
The person who set the table was Lu Zushang, but everyone knew it.
Come here today,
In order to make friends with the strange man from Nanyang, the master of Wuzhuang Temple who is well versed in yin and yang
