The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 140

"Stop practicing, the little one is really no match for the officials now." In the martial arts hall, Xiao Qi begged for mercy.

"Hehe, what do you mean it's really not right now?" I smiled and withdrew my fist.

"Your Majesty's progress far surpasses Xiao Qi's. Whether it is speed or strength, his skills are superior to Xiao Qi's, so naturally he has the upper hand." Yuan Ji said with satisfaction, "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs. If not, you can concentrate on practicing martial arts, maybe Able to become an unprecedented master."

"Sir, if you specialize in martial arts, I may not be completely suitable for practicing martial arts."

"Your Majesty, all careers in the world are based on enlightenment, and martial arts is no exception, and your Majesty's heart is indeed the heart of a god and man. That's why I said this, not deliberately exaggerating."

Everyone loves to hear a good word, let alone a harmless one.

I said: "By the way, sir, I have been practicing the third section of Taizu Changquan for half a year, and my strength and speed have been greatly improved. When can I learn the fourth section?"

"Your Majesty, the Taizu Changquan that has been handed down to the world only has three sessions. The first session is practice of moves, the second session is focused on actual combat training, the third session is to cultivate one's own abilities, and the fourth session is not normal. There are only a few formulas. "

"There is no normality?"

"Exactly, there is another story here."

As soon as Xiao Qi heard a story, he said excitedly: "Sir, come and listen to it."

Yuan Zhi smiled slightly: "I also listened to what my master said. My master is the chief elder of the Emperor's Valley Martial Hall. About 300 years ago, Emperor Taizu brought down our country with a coiling dragon stick in his hand. After he ruled the world, Taizu did not Fighting in the arena again, when I have free time, I think about the martial arts I created. The long boxing is simple and practical, but it is too exposed. It is more than domineering but not kingly. Now that I am the emperor, I should have a set of Taizu long boxing that suits my status. Too My ancestor got all his martial arts from Shaolin, and Shaolin martial arts is based on subjugating demons and eliminating demons, and is mainly based on fierceness. After a long time, he will feel hostile in his heart, and the more skilled he is, the more hostile. Therefore, most of the real Shaolin masters are from Buddhism. Master, with the heart of a Bodhisattva who saves suffering and disasters, he can resolve the hostility. Only in this way can the yin and yang be harmonized. However, Emperor Taizu has been fighting all the year round and killed countless lives on the battlefield, which added to the hostility. The heart of compassion forcibly suppressed the hostility in the body, but it still could not be eliminated. In order to solve this problem, Emperor Taizu secretly entered the Valley of the Kings, and discussed with the elders of Wutang and Shutang for three days and three nights. After finding out the way to decipher it, he realized the fourth section of Taizu Changquan. Taizu Emperor himself named it Changquan Yihuijue, which means that it can only be understood, but cannot be explained in words. Everyone will come up with different ideas according to their own understanding. Answer."

"So that's how it is. In simple terms, there are only formulas and no moves. It's a typical example of winning without moves."

Yuan Ji praised: "Your Majesty's comprehension is really beyond ordinary people. It is exactly what martial arts masters say, there is no trick to win. In fact, there are similarities in the Longhushan Wuying Jue practiced by Your Majesty."

"How is this possible? How can you break the opponent's moves without using moves?" Xiao Qi didn't understand.

I thought to myself, I can't blame Xiao Qi, who told him not to be born 800 years later, so he should read more martial arts novels?

"Sir, did the hostility in Taizu's body dissipate later?"

"I don't know about this. At that time, Emperor Taizu hoped that Emperor Taizu could stay in the valley to practice for a period of time, and use the aura of heaven and earth in the valley and the good fortune of nature to resolve it. The minister is not clear."

Song Taizu was only 49 years old when he died. Even among the people, it is not considered a long life to go west at this age, let alone the king of a country, a founding emperor with strong martial arts.

It is no wonder that later generations are quite puzzled by the cause of Taizu's death. The saying "candle shadow and ax sound" is popular in the world, and they believe that Zhao Kuangyin was murdered by his younger brother Zhao Guangyi who intended to usurp the throne.It’s just that most of the records of the royal family in the Northern Song Dynasty were destroyed when Emperor Gaozong traveled to the south, and if Zhao Guangyi did it, then he would wipe off the traces, so that when I just traveled through, I read the royal family materials in the imperial study room, intending to find out There is no clue about the cause of Taizu's death.

Yuan Ji told me the formula of the fourth section of Changquan, and then said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Taizu passed away not long after he left the Valley of the Kings, so the theory of the fourth section has not been handed down to the world, only I have records in the Valley of the Kings, but it is unknown whether Emperor Taizu left any remains."

Xiao Qi said: "Sir, Xiao Qi has something to ask."

"Xiaoqi, what's the matter?"

"Sir, Emperor Valley's martial arts are the best in the world, why don't you teach it to officials?"

Yuan Ji smiled and said, "Your Majesty must also want to know the reason."

"Well, sir."

"Actually, the reason is very simple. Firstly, the Imperial Valley martial arts cannot be passed on to outsiders, and the humble officials will not accept His Majesty as a disciple, right? Of course, the most important thing is another point. Most of the Imperial Valley martial arts are based on gradual enlightenment, so the requirements for basic skills are too high. , just like Lan Yu and Shen Mo, who only learned the basic skills of the Valley of the Kings, and practiced in the valley for five full years, and then began to formally learn the martial arts of the Valley of the Kings.

Xiao Qi nodded and said: "What Mr. said makes sense."

"Sir, there is one more thing I've been wanting to ask, and I don't know if it's convenient."

Seeing how polite I was, Yuan Zhi hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please give me orders if you have anything to do."

"How did you know the late emperor? How did you become my martial arts professor?"

"There's no need to hide this matter from His Majesty. I'll tell you slowly, well, this matter has to start from 40 years ago."

"40 years ago, how old was Mr. then?" Xiao Qi said.

"Xiaoqi, don't interrupt, just listen to the teacher."

"Haha, it's okay." Yuan Ji smiled, "Your Majesty knows that I came from the Wutang of the Valley of the Emperors, but I don't know that the ancestor of the minister is proficient in both arts and martial arts. People, martial arts, and martial arts are both cultivated, and they are also the chief elders of the two halls. Needless to say, martial arts, the martial arts of the ancestors are even inferior to the contemporary Zhang Tianshi. More than 40 years ago, the ancestors took the position of elders of the two halls. They were passed on to the master and uncle of Weichen respectively. He traveled around the world alone and met the late emperor who was still a child in the Hongqiao area of ​​Kuaiji. The ancestor saw the strange appearance of the late emperor and was curious for a while, so he asked the late emperor's birth date at will. After a simple calculation, he did not expect that the child in front of him was ordered by the emperor. The ancestor was very surprised at that time and thought that the dynasty would change. So the ancestor lived in Hongqiao for three days and learned about the family background of the late emperor in detail. After a whole night of hard work, he carefully calculated the celestial phenomena and deduced the number of fate stars of the late emperor. Although his fate star was long and lasted for 40 years, it was always dim. What puzzled the master was that at the end of the fate star , there is a faint line of great vitality, which seems to break through the dimness of the star of life at any time. The ancestor could not deduce the meaning of this vitality at the time. When he left, the ancestor told the emperor that about 40 years later, the successor of the Valley of the Kings will visit again. Two Years ago, I was ordered by my teacher to come to Lin'an and paid a visit to the late emperor. The late emperor still had a fresh memory of meeting his ancestor that day, and said that he had done nothing in his life. He hoped that I could teach His Majesty martial arts so as to correct your majesty's congenital deficiencies and revitalize the world. My court. In this way, I became the prince's martial arts professor. Your majesty knew everything about it. It wasn't until after your majesty ascended the throne that I realized that your majesty is the vitality in the star that the ancestors said, although I don't know how to do it. However, I can also know that my fate has changed, and that faint vitality has begun to flourish, and it will surely shine."

"Sir, your master is also a god-man." Xiao Qi admired.

It is indeed miraculous to be able to calculate the fate of the emperor when the first emperor was living among the people, and also infer that the first emperor reigned for more than forty years and his political achievements were bleak.Moreover, Master Yuan Ji can count my arrival, which is even more unbelievable.

Could it be that my time travel is also predestined?
