Chapter 52: The Ballad of the Wind



Chapter 52: The Ballad of the Wind

Dugu Feng's white skirt fluttered slightly as she landed lightly beside him.

She looked at him as if he were a monster.

"actually."

Her thoughts jumped: "Actually, you are a Turk?"

"No," Zhou Yi shook his head, "I'm from the Eastern Land Sui Dynasty."

Dugu Feng was of course joking, and said:

"If your skills were a little higher, maybe one day in the future, when the people of Western Turkestan see you, they will regard you as Yun Shuai."

"But you have to change into a white robe."

Zhou Yi asked, "Why?"

The girl tilted her head slightly and said, "Because there is a ballad about the wind in the Mobei grassland."

"It is said that Marshal Yun ran with all his Qinggong power, his white robes cutting through the wind."

"Because it was so fast, the wind was cut apart and whimpered around him, making a wonderful and moving sound, like an ancient ballad from the northern desert."

"Is there such a thing?" Zhou Yi took out the parchment scroll.

Dugu Feng also looked at the parchment scroll: "I only heard about it, I have never actually seen Yun Shuai."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Do you want to hear it?"

Dugu Feng said: "I'm just a little curious."

Zhou Yi said casually: "This is easy. When my Qinggong is perfected, I will let you listen to the ancient ballads of the Western Turks."

The girl was a little happy, her eyes curved and she smiled: "Okay."

"I just don't know when you can reach the level of Yun Shuai. He is a Persian martial arts master."

Then he asked:

"Have you opened up the Yongquan and Rangu acupoints?"

Zhou Yi did not hide it: "No."

Dugu Feng looked carefree: "Okay, I'll just assume you have the Taiping Hongbao."

Zhou Yi was very generous: "If you want to learn Taiping Hongbao, I can teach you, but you must start with the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian among the Twelve Meridians."

"Forget it, let's go and ask Emperor Ding for the Heart Planting Demon Method."

Dugu Feng smiled and told him another trick:

"The opening of the Qi acupoints is related to the spirit. When your skills are deep enough and your spirit is at its peak, you will naturally feel the wind gap hidden in the acupoints."

"Inject true qi into the gaps in the wind. Over time, the acupoints will be filled with true qi, and will expand, allowing the qi to erupt outwards."

"This process is called Qi generation."

"Like I said before, the power of the splitting palm and the sword energy are all released after the energy."

After hearing this, Zhou Yi thought for a while.

Then he bowed to the girl in front of him and said seriously, "Thank you."

Dugu Feng put his hands behind his back and accepted it with pleasure.

People in the martial arts world have different ways of breaking through the ordinary acupoints to the qi points. The method she mentioned was actually passed down by her grandmother.

This nearly 100-year-old man from the Dugu family not only has extraordinary vision, but is also a person who practices the Twelve Classics.

Her method not only reflects the Dugu family's philosophy of the blue sky and red dust, but also fits Zhou Yi's current situation very well.

Zhou Yi used to cross the river by feeling the stones, but what about now?

The water is clear.

Dugu Feng touched his arms and suddenly looked frustrated.

"I lost something I was going to give you."

Zhou Yi asked: "What is it?"

The girl chose to keep it secret: "I'll tell you next time."

Zhou Yi heard the hidden meaning: "You want to leave?"

"Ruyang's business is not finished yet, so of course I have to leave."

Seeing Zhou Yi was silent for a moment.

The girl covered her mouth and chuckled. She saw a large ship floating down the river and teased him before leaving: "Why, you don't want me to leave, Master Zhou~~"

As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't give Zhou Yi a chance to speak.

I saw a white shadow flash, riding the blue sky and red dust, crossing more than five meters, and lightly landing on the side of the big ship.

That moment.

All the people on the boat were horrified and retreated in all directions.

Dugu Feng held the long sword in her hand and turned into the flower of the Dugu family. If she did not speak, the icy temperament on her face was enough to keep people away from her.

Looking at the big ship sailing away, Zhou Yi did not stay any longer and returned to Shangcai City.

First go to the clothing store to buy a set of ready-made clothes, and then find a quieter inn to stay in.

He couldn't wear the white clothes for the time being, as this place was not far from the mass grave, so he wanted to avoid being noticed by Old Monster Ding.

When I arrived at the inn, I put a few things away first.

Zhou Yi took a look at "Overlord Fire Gang".

The system is different, so he is not suitable for training at the moment.

But it’s just right for the muscular men of Taiping Dao to practice!

By the way, Old Dan also practices both internal and external cultivation. I wonder if he would like this method.

There is also a diagram of Qi circulation, which was recorded on the stone tablet of Emperor Ding. It is speculated that it is a chapter in the Taoist Heart Demon Planting Method.

But this thing has no beginning or end, so I'll study it after I settle down.

Zhou Yi kept the parchment scroll close to him.

This "Shocking Cloud Divine Travel" was extraordinary, and it was extremely suitable for him. Just after his first experience, his originally mediocre lightness skills were greatly improved.

As for why Emperor Ding collected this kung fu, he had some guesses after listening to Little Phoenix's story.

"Before taming demons, one must first cultivate the Daoist body. Using the orthodox teachings of the Xuan Sect, one must establish one's Daoist body and heart. Then, one must condense one's essence, energy, and spirit, ignite Daoist power, and obtain the Yang within the Yin."

This is exactly what is engraved on the stone tablet.

The emphasis is on the "yang within yin", which, according to the Taoist understanding, is similar to "fire in water".

Although Zhou Yi had never seen the specific techniques of the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique, he knew it based on common sense.

This secret requires planting a demon. Planting a demon in the body and mind of Tao is like "fire in water."

The foundation of Jingyun Shenyou lies in the Yongquan and Rangu acupoints, one water and one fire, and water comes first and then fire. Doesn’t it correspond to the planting of demons in the heart of Taoism?

That is why Emperor Ding takes it seriously.

"The origin of the Xuanzhen Guanzang is mysterious. I wonder how Master got it."

"This technique must be related to the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence. Plus, the supplementary notes are exactly the same as those left by the Demon Sect senior."

Zhou Yi thought about it over and over again and wanted to ask his master.

but

Since the letter from Fuzi Mountain, there has been no news from Master Jiao Wuzi.

He took out the letter from home and read it again.

Nanyang, Wolonggang.

Although there are many sects and forces in this place, they can avoid war.

This is because the strength of several major sects and Taoist temples in Nanyang is quite amazing, and they mainly rely on the power of numbers.

The attitude of the vast majority of anti-kings towards them was mainly to win them over.

It's worth examining in detail.

If it is appropriate, call Lao Dan, Xia Shu, Yan Qiu and others to go and set up the Taiping Taoist Temple again.

Zhou Yi looked towards Nanyang with a burning gaze.

It was the third day since Emperor Ding's coffin was stolen.

Zhou Yi went to a paper shop in Shangcai City to buy hemp paper for the envelope, and then asked some martial artists and found the branch of the Jukun Gang.

It was an ordinary street shop that sold folding fans and oil-paper umbrellas.

Business is very quiet.

Compared with the Yongqiu branch, the Shangcai branch of the Jukun Gang is considered high-profile.

Zhou Yicai arrived at the door and saw the shopkeeper coming to greet him. He immediately took out a small wooden sign.

It was given by the old man from the Yongqiu branch.

"Distinguished guest!"

After taking a closer look at the wooden sign in his hand, the shopkeeper, who was in his forties, immediately became respectful.

He looked Zhou Yi up and down, but he couldn't be as familiar with him as the local spies in Yongqiu, and couldn't see Zhou Yi's true identity.

"Do you have any writing materials?"

"A place selling news wouldn't be complete without the four treasures of the study," the shopkeeper said with a laugh. "Are you planning to write or send a letter?"

"Do you do this business?"

"It's done. Our people are running around, and carrying letters is just a convenient thing to do."

The shopkeeper was very friendly: "If it's a VIP like you who holds our gang's cloud card, just send a letter and we will all send feathers to expedite the arrangements."

"If it's not too far, come back in a month and ask, and I'll let you know if it's been delivered. If there's a reply, I'll bring it back to you."

Letters can also be delivered to government offices within the city.

However, is it right for a government messenger to deliver a letter to a big rebel?

Forces like the Jukun Gang are more reliable, and Zhou Yi has worked with them before.

"Where are you sending it to?"

"Yang'e."

The shopkeeper nodded and smiled, holding up three fingers: "Three hundred coins. If you were someone without a cloud card, it would be at least five hundred coins."

It’s dark, so dark!

"send."

Zhou Yi did not bargain, as the confidence came from Emperor Ding.

The shopkeeper smiled and led him into the inner room and brought him writing brush and ink.

This letter was sent to Cao's residence. Although the Jukun Gang was more reliable than the government office, one had to be on guard against others, so the content of the letter was written in a more obscure manner.

The two little Taoist boys and Shan Xiongxin saw it and were able to understand it.

After writing and sealing it, he gave it to the shopkeeper.

"Do you have a branch in Nanyang?"

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, then, considering Zhou Yi's VIP status, said, "Yes, but it's in a rather remote location."

Zhou Yi casually asked, "But are you being ostracized by the local forces in Nanyang?"

"Not really."

The shopkeeper shook his head and explained, "The largest forces in Nanyang are the three sects, four gangs, and one association. There are also many other smaller sects and factions. They are not exclusive to outside forces."

"Because these forces jointly nominated a leader, the leader of the Nanyang Clan, Crescent Blade Yang Zhen."

"This great leader is not only highly respected, but also a man of great versatility. As long as you abide by their rules when entering Nanyang, you will be protected. As a result, several major sects have developed rapidly. For example, the Nanyang Tiankui Dojo has more than 10,000 people."

"The leader of Yangzhen has gathered the Nanyang forces into a fist, but has not expanded outward. With such a lack of desire, no one dares to provoke them easily."

"It would be great if we could do business in Nanyang."

Zhou Yi was delighted and looked forward to Nanyang even more.

What a great place!

We, the Taiping Dao, are the most disciplined.

"Then why does your gang keep a low profile in Nanyang?"

The shopkeeper frowned slightly, exchanged glances with Zhou Yi, and asked, "Your Excellency, are you going to Nanyang?"

Zhou Yi said: "Yes, maybe I can still cooperate with your gang."

Seeing his attitude, the shopkeeper said, "Our gang's main business is on the southeast coast, and we have two major rivals: the Water Dragon Society and the Sea Sand Gang."

"The Haisha Gang has close ties with the two major Nanyang factions in the illegal salt trade, so they are against us."

"Since the last leader of our gang was assassinated, we've lost our livelihood in the Central Plains. Our foundation in Nanyang is now far less profound than that of the Haisha Gang."

As if worried about being looked down upon by the distinguished guest, he added:

"However, our Jukun Gang is mainly engaged in the sale of information, so we don't need a large storefront. If you want to inquire about information in Nanyang, our gang is still the best choice."

Zhou Yi gave an excuse at the right time: "Of course, I have a very good impression of the Ju Kun Gang."

The shopkeeper grinned and listened to Zhou Yi say, "Please tell me the location of the Nanyang branch."

"Okay, I'll write it down for you."

He dipped a pen in ink, wrote down the location, and blew the ink dry.

Zhou Yi took a look at it, put the note away, and asked the shopkeeper to send the letter as soon as possible, then said goodbye and left.

I walked straight towards the inn as soon as I got out of the house, lost in thought all the way.

If the real situation is similar to what this person said, perhaps this is the best place to go right now.

Yang Zhen, the leader of Nanyang, gathered many sects to face the outside world in unison and implemented the strategy of "strengthening the foundation and securing the country."

As long as he has enough face and can command the respect of all the sects, he will be safe in today's chaotic world.

If Yongqiu had the same structure as Nanyang, how could Yuwen Chengdu dare to attack Fuzi Mountain?

only.

The three words "Taiping Dao" were forcibly embellished by Li Mi and his gang. Even if the leader of Nanyang was willing to accept it in order to maintain his image, it would probably still arouse the taboos of various forces.

Zhou Yi thought about it.

Never make a big fuss until your fist is strong enough.

'Store up food and wait until you become king'

After returning to the inn, Zhou Yi did not set off immediately, but practiced the light skill of Jingyun Shenyou.

Little Phoenix is ​​right.

The twelve main meridians tend to be related to various strange martial arts, and each acupoint has the opportunity to be trained into a qi point.

Each martial art differs in the type, number, and training methods of the Qi points, so it is difficult to count how many types of martial arts there are.

This light skill is practiced on the foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian.

This meridian is Zhou Yi's basic foundation, and he is very familiar with it.

In the ground room of the inn, he held a parchment scroll in his hand.

The exercise method clearly requires that the "Yongquan" and "Rangu" acupoints must be opened as qi orifices in order to practice the second level of the method.

Zhou Yi checked it several times to make sure he was not mistaken.

This light skill is very strange, there is no first level.

The divine wandering is like a dream, four steps into the sky.

There are only the second, third and fourth levels, and the threshold is extremely high.

The so-called second level is the two major water, fire and qi orifices of Yongquan and Rangu.

The third level is to train the Yin Gu acupoint and the Da He acupoint into Qi points. These two acupoints also correspond to water and fire in the Five Elements.

The image of Yin Valley Point is like a spring flowing into a deep valley. The spring is a gushing spring. This is the point where water meets water in the deep valley, which is a big water.

As for the Da He acupoint, the He is double red, which means big fire.

This third stage of water meeting fire is extremely domineering!

If Yun Shuai of Western Turkic really practiced this kind of light Kung Fu, it would be no wonder that he was the best light Kung Fu master in Mobei.

As for the fourth level, it is more related to the spirit in the orifice, and requires extremely subtle innate true qi to touch it.

Zhou Yi didn't open his Qi.

However, Yongquan and Rangu are the basic foundation of his kung fu. When the meridian qi and true qi are circulated together, he can exert an effect similar to the second level of light work.

Therefore, the parchment scroll records the contents related to the second level.

How to gather and release Qi,

Zhou Yi can learn how to circulate the energy in the various acupoints of the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian.

This time, the door to a new world is opened, which is really fascinating.

At noon nine days later.

Inside the Di-shaped house, Zhou Yi opened his eyes from meditation with a smile on his face.

At this time, he had already memorized all the techniques of the second level of Jingyun Shenyou.

These days, I really have to thank one person.

That’s right, it’s Emperor Ding!

The money for food and drink in Shangcai came from Emperor Ding.

The magic method of light Kung Fu that he practiced came from Emperor Ding.

Even the four bandits who were chasing him that day were killed by Emperor Ding.

this.

Nothing to say, he is truly a 'good man Ding'.

Zhou Yi was sighing with emotion when he suddenly heard a commotion on the street below.

There seemed to be the sound of horse hooves coming from the direction of the city gate.

"What happened outside?"

Zhou Yi went down to the lobby on the first floor and saw the innkeeper running back from the city gate with an excited look on his face. He asked him.

The man wiped the sweat off his face with the cloth on his shoulder and replied:

"Sir, I don't know the specifics of the matter. I only know that the prefect Zhao of Huaiyang Commandery has arrived with the commanding officers. I heard that General Zhang's troops are also here."

"Which General Zhang?"

The waiter shouted, "Of course it's General Zhang Xutuo!"

Zhou Yi said "oh" and paid the bill at the speed of light.

As he ran along, he heard the noise in the city getting louder and his steps quickened.

After coming out of the south city gate, he was completely freed from his restraints.

Find the southwest direction, gather your energy and run as fast as you can.

I saw a green shadow flying across the river and passing by the grass. If Lao Ma came again at this time, even if he used all his lightness skills, he would only be left behind and eating dust.

According to the Jingyun Shenyou method, the true energy bursts out from the Yongquan and Rangu acupoints, and the true fire is stimulated in the water, like a thunder dragon emerging from the abyss!

The strong wind blows in my face, and my ears are filled with the sound of wind!

Zhou Yi ignored the consumption of his true energy and felt an unprecedented sense of refreshment!

He looked towards Nanyang and smiled.

Crescent Blade Yang Dalongtou, please take care of me!
