The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 6
"Ganzhou does not have aristocratic families or ancestors, because it is adjacent to hundreds of countries in the Western Regions. According to the records of my teacher, in ancient times... well, that is, the dynasty before the founding of my Great Xia. This place belongs to the 'Holy Land' I mentioned just now. 'The sphere of influence of the Kunlun faction.

"Although Zhangye's Li family has a long history, it is only a famous family and cannot be called a family. There is no 'Shengxuan' in the family, but since it can be called a famous family, I am afraid there is no shortage of 'Dongxuan' real people...

"Cang'er, it seems that your understanding of Jianghu is only half-knowledge, not much better than your junior brother." Hall Master Huang Xianjun replied with a smile.

Brother Feng didn't respond to the master's teasing. Firstly, he had a relatively thick skin. Secondly, the master has always been in this style, and he has long been used to it.

He just asked suspiciously: "Hundred countries of the Western Regions? What are the Hundred Kingdoms of the Western Regions? Master, go west from Yumen Pass, except for Dunhuang and some sporadic oases, is it not an endless desert where you will lose your way completely once you go deep, and you can never get out again?" ?"

Hearing this, Zhao Chen on the side also looked at Master Huang with questioning eyes. In the memory of the original owner, the "Endless Desert" west of Yumen was also a restricted area of ​​life, and even horse bandits dared not stay for a long time. Most of the activities are in the desert in the north, because the North Desert is connected to Beiting County of Jinzhou, and there are often caravans going back and forth.

Since the topic finally came back to the issue of "Kunlun School", the owner of Huang did not continue to play tricks, and organized a few sentences before saying to his two apprentices,

"In ancient times, the Western Regions were not endless deserts, but consisted of countless small countries, which were protected by the founder of Kunlun, Taichu Daojun... According to the records of the teacher's gate, at that time, our connection with the Western countries was not by sea. Instead, they can directly transit through the Western Regions.

"But in the last years of ancient times, a huge change happened to the Taoist ancestor of Taichu and the Kunlun faction, which caused hundreds of countries in the Western Regions to disappear overnight and turned into the endless desert of today!

"The ancient dynasty also perished, leading to chaos in the world, and the princes rose together... Until I swept away the world and established the Great Xia, the world was able to enjoy peace for more than [-] years..."

When Master Huang was talking happily, he was interrupted by Brother Feng "ruthlessly": "Master, don't use the content of "The Legend of the Great Ancestor" to show off. You said that the level of this passage is not as good as that of the teahouse storyteller. open……

"Quickly go back to the topic of how Kunlun and the Hundred Kingdoms of the Western Regions did not exist.

"Well, you should correct your problem of saying that things are easy to digress."

Master Huang's interest was swept away, he immediately glared at his apprentice, and cursed: "You are the only one who has too many things...it's not big or small!"

But scolding is nothing, he still accepted Senior Brother Feng's reminder, he glanced at Zhao Chen, who seemed to have completely ignored the quarrel between their master and apprentice, and continued:

"In the classics, there are no details about what happened at the beginning. Some people speculate that something went wrong with the Taoist Lord Taichu and he had to seal himself, which affected all the countries in the Western Regions;
"The Taixi cultivators who were stranded in Ganzhou and could not return thought that the Hundred Kingdoms of the Western Regions were dragged into the so-called 'subspace' they called...

"In short, there are various speculations, but there is no real evidence. It was not until Dunhuang reappeared hundreds of years ago that the 'seal theory' became the mainstream.

"It is said that Zhangye's Li family got the inheritance from Dunhuang, so they achieved the 'Dongxuan' and became a famous family in one fell swoop.

"After that, there was an endless stream of practitioners who came to Ganzhou to take risks, but except for a few oases that reappeared in reality at first, there were no subsequent discoveries, and the enthusiasm gradually dropped..."

Speaking of this, the owner of the Huang Pavilion changed the subject, pointed to the booklet of cheat books in Zhao Chen's hand, and said with a smile:
"And this "Secret Record of Qi Movement through the Twelve Gates of the Golden House and Jade Room" was obtained by a certain monk in one of the oases. According to legend, it is the basic Qi training method passed down by the Taoist monarch. Pass it on to you."

Such a precious classic is just given to me?Is it too childish?Zhao Chen, who was a little excited at first, felt something was wrong when he heard this.

Although he still doesn't know what Daojun means, he knows that it is a supreme existence just by listening to the title.

After looking at Master Huang, who was looking at him with a smile, and Senior Brother Feng, who had no greed or jealousy in his eyes, Zhao Chen "enlightened" instantly:

"Senior Brother Feng may not be ignorant of the stories of the Kunlun School and the Hundred Kingdoms of the Western Regions, and Master Huang is not simply giving us 'remedial lessons'...

"The master and apprentice are acting here!
"They sang and chorused, asked and answered, in fact, to emphasize the preciousness of this "Secret Record of the Twelve Doors of the Golden House and Jade Chamber", in return for Zhao Song's sending a firecracker team to escort the Golden Dart Martial Arts Hall to the county city Favor.

"After all, this cheap master also said that his own kung fu cannot be passed on to the outside world, so he can only use this book to make up the numbers...

"As expected of an old Jianghu, if the honest boy from the original owner was replaced, I'm afraid he would be grateful to Dade by now.

"In addition, they boasted so much about "Secret Records of Qi Xing of the Twelve Gates of the Golden House and Jade House", which on the contrary shows that there may be some problems with this book of the Daoist Monarch..."

In a flash of thought, Zhao Chen had already touched Huang Xianjun's thoughts, so he directly opened the cheat book in his hand and started to read it quickly.

The content of the previous body training is nothing, it is the "Taiyi Five Elements Boxing" that the original owner has practiced for a few days. As for the quality of the exercises, Zhao Chen still does not have the vision and level to judge.

However, the follow-up methods of visualizing the mind and promoting qi are written in a kind of rippling characters that look like clouds and water. Just looking at the brush strokes makes people feel a little upset, but it attracts people like a black hole. People's eyes seem to hide a wonderful mystery in those ripples.

At this time, Huang Xianjun, who noticed that Zhao Chen stayed on one page for too long, reminded:

"Don't read those words too much, it will affect your spirit after a long time."

These words sounded like thunder in Zhao Chen's mind, and he suddenly came back to his senses, and couldn't help being a little terrified, because the feeling just now was very similar to the feeling he had when he looked directly at those indescribable things before entering this world.

"Master, what kind of writing is this?" Zhao Chen asked dryly, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.

"This is the ancient Yunzhuan script, which is a kind of 'Da Dao', which contains the original principles of this exercise... but it is also very dangerous. If you read too much, you will easily fall into madness, or even turn into a monster!" Huang Xianjun looked at it He glanced at Zhao Chen a few times, and his tone was full of emotion.

Zhao Chen vaguely felt that the cheap master looked at him a little strangely, but his attention was still on the secret book in his hand, and he didn't pay much attention to it. He just asked: "Why is the Daoist script dangerous?"

"It's not that the words are dangerous, it's because 'knowledge is poisonous'! Any description and interpretation involving laws, rules, and essences is very dangerous, and can only be tolerated after reaching a certain level.

"Therefore, most of the classics only describe the methods and processes, and it is relatively safe for those who study the classics to summarize by themselves through repeated exercises.

"Of course, if it's just exercises at the level of body training, qi training, and mana, it's okay to use some agreed code words in key places. As long as you don't write them out directly, the danger will not be too great... For example, the book "" The Secret Record of Qi Xing of the Twelve Gates of the Golden Tower and Jade Room", followed by the translation and secret language annotations of the Yunzhuan script by famous interpreters.

"In fact, the 'Words of the Great Dao' are often used to explain the principles of heaven and earth, the origin of the Great Dao...it is both dangerous and a protection for ordinary people.

"Ordinary people feel dizzy at most when they see the 'Words of the Great Dao', just like your senior brother... But being able to be attracted by it shows that your soul is born with a strong soul and a high level of comprehension, which can be regarded as the seed of cultivation." Huang Xianjun said here, He sighed regretfully, "If I hadn't given the quota in my hand to your second senior brother, I should have recommended you to my 'Yu Wang Zong' to practice."

Knowledge is poisonous... Explaining the truth of the essence will make people crazy... No wonder the Great Xia Dynasty has developed for more than 8000 years, and science and technology are only at this level.

In other words, if only relying on experience summary and unable to study the principles in depth, it may be because of the existence of high-level monks who like technology to develop to the current level?
