Chapter 242 The Secret of Longevity

Chapter 242 The Secret of Longevity
Before setting off, Meng Xiuyuan briefly explained to the hundreds of villagers on Wudang Mountain, publicly stating that he was going down the mountain for a while.

Although it is common sense that the two parties have no relatives or reasons, Meng Xiuyuan has no responsibility to think about these people.

But I thought to myself, people dragged their families all the way to the mountains, built houses from scratch, plowed land and sowed seeds, all because they wanted to join him, a "superior", and seek a stable life in the troubled times. .

So from an emotional point of view, Meng Xiuyuan felt that it was necessary for him to explain clearly to them.

As expected, as soon as Meng Xiuyuan said these words, the expressions of these villagers changed dramatically, their bodies trembled, and they looked like the sky was falling.

However, these villagers are honest, responsible, sensible, and have always respected Meng Xiuyuan, so after only a little riot, they were suppressed by several elderly leaders among them.

They didn't pretend to be pitiful, begged Meng Xiuyuan to stay with moral kidnapping, but they all spoke out, sincerely thanking Meng Xiuyuan for his shelter this year.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel good about it.

In order to keep these villagers as safe as possible, he immediately called over the young men whom he had taught martial arts, and left a burst of true energy in their bodies respectively.

Although these young people haven't learned Meng Xiuyuan's true skills yet, relying on Meng Xiuyuan's true energy, they are far from a problem to deal with ordinary bandits, not to mention ordinary bandits.

……

After the simple explanation of the matter, Meng Xiuyuan immediately left Wudang Mountain.

Traveling to Yangzhou, the waterway is the most convenient. Meng Xiuyuan hired a small boat along the Han River to Hankou. After arriving in Hankou, he changed to a Yangtze River boat and sailed eastward along the river.

At this time, the world was in chaos. On this not too long journey, Meng Xiuyuan encountered three waves of water thieves.

However, since he was only in a simple boat and his clothes were very simple, he didn't attract any really powerful people, so he was dismissed casually.

When we arrived in Yangzhou, the night was getting dark, and we could see that the riverside wharf outside the city was full of ships of all sizes and lit up with lights. It was a bustling scene, but it seemed that it had not been affected by this world.

Meng Xiuyuan casually found an inn to settle down, and after dawn, he searched around the city for news about the "stone dragon" mentioned in the letter from Shifei Xuan.

The process was very smooth, because this Mr. Shi Long is quite famous in Yangzhou City.

According to passers-by, this stone dragon is nicknamed "Mountain Pusher" and is known as the number one master in Yangzhou. The Shilong Martial Arts Field he founded by himself is also well-known in the city, and he has many disciples under his sect.

However, in recent years, Shi Long seldom went to the gymnasium to manage affairs, and all business was handled by his disciples. However, because the martial arts field bears his name, there are still many people who come here admiringly come from far and near.

It is said that Shilong's internal and external skills have reached the realm of a first-rate master. In his early years, he made a huge name in the arena and maintained his reputation for decades.

If this young man in Yangzhou wants to practice martial arts, unless he has a family background, his first choice must be Shilong martial arts field.

When Meng Xiuyuan heard the news, he didn't feel any pressure, on the contrary, he was very happy. He only thought that since this person is so famous and has many disciples, it must not be easy to hide his traces.

Sure enough, that afternoon, Meng Xiuyuan went to Shilong Dojo, and secretly performed the "soul transfer method" on several of his disciples, and soon asked about Shilong's specific situation from them.

It is said that according to these Taoist disciples, this stone dragon has a good nature and is celibate. Since more than two years ago, he has lived in seclusion in a small farmyard on the outskirts of the city. send it.

Obviously, he should be studying the "Longevity Formula" wholeheartedly.

……

Speaking of it, Shi Long's personality is quite similar to Meng Xiuyuan's. In terms of his retreat, although it is not as remote as Wudang Mountain, it is still quite clean.

Meng Xiuyuan found the door, but saw that there was not even a doorman in charge, so he could only take a step forward, and said loudly:

"Meng Xiuyuan, a loose man from the countryside, came here today to pay a visit to Mr. Shi Long."

As soon as he said this, there was silence in the room, and after a while, there was a lamenting voice:
"The honored guest is here, please come in and have a cup of hot tea."

"excuse me……"

Meng Xiuyuan said softly, pushed the door open and entered, and across the hall, he saw a simple and elegant practice room, in the middle of which sat cross-legged a five or sixty-year-old martial artist with a gloomy complexion.

But compared to Shilong himself, what attracted Meng Xiuyuan's attention more was the inscription on his wall:
"If you are successful, you will benefit the world; if you are poor, you will be self-reliant."

The famous sentences through the ages have been simply changed in order and slightly adapted, but the meaning is quite different.

Meng Xiuyuan thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but smile in his heart, he only said that this old Mr. Shilong was really indifferent to the world, no wonder he could stay in this small courtyard for two or three years.

"Mr. Meng is so young, his essence is introverted, his breath is long, obviously he has good martial arts, it is really admirable.

It's just that I don't know what you can do when the young master comes to the door today? "

Shi Long's self-cultivation is quite good, seeing an uninvited guest like Meng Xiuyuan come to the door, his expression remains unchanged and his words are polite.

However, his eyes kept looking up and down Meng Xiuyuan's whole body. Obviously, his heart was not as peaceful as it looked.

Meng Xiuyuan heard that he didn't want to do more detours, and immediately said bluntly:
"Mr. Shi, I heard that one of the four great books, "The Secret of Longevity", is in your hands.

I want to borrow this book from you and..."

In the middle of speaking, Meng Xiuyuan's heart suddenly moved. He only felt that there was a faint sense of oppression in the surrounding space. Although it was insubstantial and threatening, it was still slightly noticeable.

Looking up, I saw Shi Long's eyes were sharp, looking straight at him, which was very different from the calm look just now.

Seeing this scene, Meng Xiu was far from feeling uncomfortable, on the contrary he was pleasantly surprised.

When discussing martial arts many years ago, Lu Miaozi once mentioned to Meng Xiuyuan that when a martial artist in this world reaches a certain level, he can use his mind to lock the opponent's aura when he is facing a big enemy and concentrates all his attention.

At that time, Lu Miaozi had experienced many years of torture and had just recovered from a serious injury. Her skills had not yet recovered, so she could not show it to Meng Xiuyuan.I didn't expect to see it for the first time here today.

Just when Meng Xiuyuan was curious and wanted to do some research, he suddenly heard that Shilong said:

"Young Master Meng's words are correct, the "Secret of Longevity" is indeed in my hands.

I just don't know, son, where did you hear this news? "

Shi Long's words were deep and majestic, and he was no longer indifferent and polite as before. Obviously, this "Secret of Longevity" is quite important to him.As soon as Meng Xiuyuan opened his mouth, he had already touched his bottom line.

Meng Xiuyuan paused for a while, but then he didn't tell the truth, but just said perfunctorily:

"I have always admired the name of "The Secret of Longevity" Taoism, so I have been asking people to look for it.

I got the news by chance this time, so I came to visit and asked Mr. Shi not to blame me for being abrupt..."

Meng Xiuyuan knew that if he truthfully mentioned the names of Cihang Jingzhai and Shi Feixuan, it might make it much easier to borrow "The Secret of Longevity".

But when he thought about what Shi Feixuan said and did during the conversation that day, he didn't want to get too deeply involved with her.

At this time, Lu Miaozi still lives in seclusion in the Pegasus Ranch in order to avoid Zhu Yuyan's pursuit, so Meng Xiuyuan is also not easy to mention his name.

As a result, Shi Long saw Meng Xiuyuan's concealed and unwillingness to speak clearly, and became more and more suspicious of his intention, and immediately said in a powerful voice:
"Master Meng, please go back.

No matter why you came here today, I'm afraid you won't be able to fulfill your wish..."

Speaking of this, Shi Long's voice paused for a moment, and the power in his body turned sharply, raising the energy of the whole person to the extreme, and a pair of eyes stared at Meng Xiuyuan:
"Mr. Meng, I think you also understand that since you can be locked by me, you are already at a disadvantage in terms of martial arts realm.

And Shi is dozens of years older than you, so he also has an advantage in skill.

I hope you see the situation clearly and don't force me to act. "

Meng Xiuyuan's heart was moved when he heard the words, he only thought that this Shilong was not a bad person, he didn't think of murdering people to silence the people and eradicate the future troubles when he had the upper hand, instead he made an analysis and persuaded Meng Xiuyuan to leave voluntarily.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan was not in a hurry with Shi Long, and explained in a gentle voice:
"Mr. Shi, in fact, I am not hostile this time, but to cooperate with you..."

Before he finished speaking, Shi Long shook his head abruptly, and said in a deep voice:

"You have to be so stubborn, no wonder I am!"

At this time, Shilong stood up suddenly, his clothes swelled up, a strong energy formed a vortex, and around Shilong as the center, the nearby furniture, tables and chairs tossed and burst like fallen leaves in the wind, rolling to all directions .

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan shook his head slightly, knowing that it was inevitable to move around, he simply stood with his hands behind his back, and gave Shilong enough time to improve his energy.

Shi Long spent his early years in the rivers and lakes and had rich experience in actual combat. Seeing Meng Xiuyuan's careless performance, he became more and more vigilant in his heart. He simply ignored the fact that the young man in front of him was dozens of years older, and used Meng Xiuyuan's initiative to give up this moment to accumulate his momentum. To the top, in order to give full play.

The next moment, Shi Long suddenly flew up, skimmed the Zhangxu space without touching the ground, and rushed towards Meng Xiuyuan in the air.Pushing forward with both palms, the energy surged wildly, and he used the stunt "Mountain Pusher" for which he became famous.

I don't want to, this palm has not yet been firmly struck, but he suddenly heard Meng Xiuyuan's soft sigh:
"Mr. Shi, you are impulsive, please sit down first."

Immediately, Meng Xiuyuan stretched out a palm lightly, and also went straight to Shilong's face.

"you……"

Shi Long only had time to utter a single word, and suddenly felt an aura as thick as a mountain and as turbulent as a great river.

The energy of the "Mountain Pusher" in his palm was blown away before he could resist for a moment.Shi Long himself also flew backwards under this incomparable force.

In the midst of spinning around, Shi Long's heart first flashed with endless fear, then it turned cold, and he sighed silently, thinking that this life is coming to an end so soon.

I don't want to, the next moment, the overwhelming terrifying energy suddenly disappeared, and the expected death did not come, only the buttocks felt a little pain all over the body.

Looking around in panic, Shi Long realized that he had fallen back to the original futon, and that Mr. Meng was smiling at him.

"Mr. Shi, can we have a good chat now?"

Shi Long trembled when he heard this, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

In fact, he still has a life-saving kung fu, which can stimulate his own potential and explode far beyond ordinary force in a short period of time.He practiced this kung fu for two years, in order to risk his life to keep the "Longevity Formula" at such a critical moment.

But sitting on the futon at the moment, looking at Meng Xiuyuan's delicate and handsome face, Shi Long suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, and felt that it was unnecessary.

"Yes, please ask Mr. Meng for advice..."

Shi Long nodded, said softly as if accepting his fate, and then took out a treasure book woven with gold thread from his bosom.

……

Shi Long originally thought that an uninvited visitor as powerful as Meng Xiuyuan, after defeating him, would definitely take away his "Secret of Longevity" and kill him to silence him.

Unexpectedly, this Young Master Meng is quite different, not only did he not make things difficult for him, he even did not borrow the "Longevity Formula" from his side, but chose to stay temporarily and study the divine book with him every day.

In such a situation, Shi Long still couldn't believe it at first, and kept thinking in his heart, what deeper intentions did the other party have, and even whether there was any conspiracy behind it.

But after a long time, he realized that he was completely superstitious.

This Mr. Meng has a clear heart, although he is very enthusiastic about the "Longevity Jue" and has studied it day and night, but he has no exclusive malicious intentions.

At this point, Shi Long was not only relieved, but also very happy in his heart. He only felt that it was a blessing from heaven to have another like-minded fellow Taoist who could study the divine scriptures together.

"Young Master Meng, if you want to practice this "Longevity Jue", you must be more careful.

I suggest you start with the oracle bone inscriptions and annotations in that book.

If you don’t get the point, you’ll hurry to follow the routes on the seven maps, and you’ll soon have blood churning, and then you’ll go mad and produce various visions, which is extremely dangerous..."

Shi Long has been studying this miraculous skill for two and a half years, but he has rarely made any progress, so facing Meng Xiuyuan, he can only advise him based on his own experience.

Hearing the sound, Meng Xiuyuan smiled and nodded, noncommittal, still obsessed with the divine book, obviously not paying much attention to this.

Seeing this situation, Shi Long had no choice but to stay by his side, and if he saw that he was going crazy, he could help luck to treat him as soon as possible.

Fortunately, after more than ten days, although Meng Xiuyuan didn't say that he had researched anything famous, he didn't have any problems, so Shi Long felt relieved.

At this time, when the Taoist disciples came to deliver the living supplies, Shi Long simply asked them to bring an extra copy of everything when they came next time.

It was because he felt that for a long time to come, this Mr. Meng would probably stay here to study the "Secret of Longevity" together.

I don't want to, before he had time to finish his instructions with his disciples, there was a sudden change.

A burst of chaotic noises came from the direction of the practice quiet room.

Seeing this, Shi Long feared that something was wrong with Meng Xiuyuan, so he hurried away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was pushed open, a gust of fresh wind blew out of the airtight quiet room.

Looking intently, Meng Xiuyuan could only see that he was sitting cross-legged, his clothes fluttering all over his body.

Obviously, the fresh air in the room came from him.

 There was a power outage for a long time at night, and I used my mobile phone to write part of it, which was very uncomfortable.

  It might change tomorrow depending on the situation.
