I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Chapter 132: Refining a Hundred Jue, Searching for Demons in Xuanyin

Winter fishing has always been a custom in the northern counties, because it is most convenient to save fish after catching them in winter.

Moreover, the fish meat at this time is plump and tender. Due to weather conditions, most of the fish will gather in some deep water areas to spend the winter. Under the command of an experienced fish leader, it is easiest to catch them in large numbers.

However, the Nucang River is mighty and winding, with many tributaries.

Ordinary people usually fish in various lakes on the branches of the Nucang River. They drill holes with ice bolts, twist spears to remove hooks, travel nets under the ice, and use horse-drawn winches. Basically, hundreds of people in nearby villages and towns work together to catch large fish. The net was laid and finally the net was closed successfully.

On the main line of the Nucang River, because the river is vast and the water is turbulent, there are sometimes ghosts under the river who take advantage of the depth of winter to cause trouble. The thickness of the ice varies, making it extremely difficult and dangerous to lower the net, so There will be basically no human activity.

Su Hanshan and the others have been working in this area for more than a month. They use large fishing nets to catch big fish. So far, they are still getting a good harvest every day.

When the Chu Dynasty was unable to provide disaster relief in the nine counties of Liang Wang, it really made sense to let the refugees migrate to the northern counties.

These places are actually extremely rich in resources. The people who originally lived on these lands will never be able to use them all. As long as the refugees can survive the initial period and truly settle down, they will not have to worry about their livelihood in the future.

Although the territory of Dachu is so large that every place can be said to be vast and sparsely populated, some places are not suitable for raising people just because of their large territory, so they can only let the wilderness exist.

"The fish matter can be brought to an end, but we still lack firewood in each stove. We need to divide some people to chop firewood. In addition, we should allocate part of our original account budget to buy winter clothes."

Zhou Zifan said, "Although the county magistrate is very confident and has arranged everything in an orderly manner, there is still a lot of pressure. It will be good for us to settle these people who come near our martial arts school better in the future."

Su Hanshan nodded: "I will come back after all the money has been spent. Senior brother, you can take care of these things."

While he was talking, his eyes were still looking at the various disciples moving on the ice. He was holding a booklet in his left hand and a fine charcoal pencil in his right hand, lightly tracing and recording something.

The martial arts secrets Su Hanshan brought back from the Southern Song Dynasty were written in different words than those from Da Chu, and he needed to translate and copy them himself.

During the recent period, although he participated in fishing every day, he had to wait for several hours after setting off the net. In fact, he had plenty of time and had already completed the transfer.

These more than a hundred people move together every day, which also facilitates him to observe the advantages and disadvantages of each disciple's movements, roughly classify them, and then distribute the secret books.

Although there are many types of secret books, in general, there are two major ones. One is from Shaolin, which has a long inheritance and a deep foundation. The other is from the business gang alliance in the southeast, which is the real foundation of Fuyao Mountain and the most solid ally. .

Most of Shaolin's martial arts have integrated Zen and martial arts, combining martial arts with agriculture. There are many martial arts foundations that can be exercised in daily life, such as farming, chopping firewood, cooking pots, etc.

The martial arts of the Southeast Merchant Gang originated in the watery land since ancient times. Many of the unique martial arts skills are inseparable from the life of fishermen.

After Su Hanshan passed these things on to these disciples respectively, they could just allow them to practice while working, which not only alleviated the fatigue of work, but also completed the transition between the old martial arts and the new martial arts, and increased their skills.

"Are you... still trying to adjust the direction of their studies?!"

Zhou Zifan noticed the movements of Su Hanshan's hands, leaned over and took a look, and couldn't help but sigh.

"There are only more than a hundred of them in total, and they can be divided into more than a dozen groups. They practice different moves, which are all the skills that are most suitable for them to give full play to their own advantages. They are also extremely tempered by the stimulation of breaking through the ice and freezing in this ice and snow. Refining.”

"I think the recent progress alone is worth their hard work over the past year and a half. It is already a speed of progress that our martial arts school could not match in the past."

In the past, when Songhe Martial Arts Hall was in its heyday, the hall invited several instructors and had strong financial resources. All aspects of wound medicine were at the top level in Cangshui County.

However, in comparison with Zhou Zifan, who has experienced it personally, he suddenly felt that the recent progress rate of these martial arts disciples was much higher than that of the past.

Obviously now, there is still a slight gap in the configuration of various drugs compared to the past, but progress can be made faster.

This is the advantage of having enough unique martial arts and being able to prescribe the right medicine.

It is said that among the top sects in the world, the number of various practice books accumulated within their sects may be greater than the total number of contemporary disciples.

When Zhou Zifan heard about it in the past, he only lamented its long history and did not think about it deeply. Now he understands what this means and what amazing advantages those disciples of the major sects have.

“The previous grouping was still relatively rough.”

Su Hanshan turned the fine charcoal pen in his hand, "According to the results of my observations these days, for some people, my classification was wrong at the time, and I must adjust it."

Zhou Zifan looked at the names circled on the booklet, found the corresponding person, and stared at them for a while.

Chen Yingjie was wielding his sword to break the ice. He originally practiced the "Sword Technique of Misty Rain and Green Pines" and used his swords to move quickly and intensively. When breaking the ice, he should have been accustomed to a series of rapid thrusts.

But now, Zuo Xiangyun was pacing on the ice with his eyes closed. After choosing a position, he stretched out his hand and pointed slightly.

Chen Yingjie unsheathed his sword, but with a flash of sword light, it was sheathed again. Cross sword marks were opened on the ground, and then he punched a hole in the middle with a palm from the air.

This is the Bodhidharma Sword Technique of the Shaolin School. Silence produces concentration, and concentration produces wisdom. There is no warning before the sword is released, and it is withdrawn as soon as it is released, like dew or lightning.

If he were to fight against his former self, he would have already broken through the opponent's wrist with his sword as soon as he raised his sword.

Among the names circled on the booklet was Luo Ping, who was walking around on the ice with his upper body naked, knocking him down with a stick from time to time.

It seemed like he was joking, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that every time he struck the stick, a wave would rise under the ice, pushing the nearby fishing net and slightly adjusting its position.

Compared with the previous fierceness, when he used the stick now, the ice layer would not be damaged by him, and the strength was simply strong and soft.

Su Tieyi had never thought about teaching this bratty boy to be smarter and smarter before, but he really couldn't teach him. Now he actually adjusted himself because of the new secret book map.

There are also several martial arts disciples who used to learn swords, but now they simply switch to using broadswords. They are so powerful that they can cut through the ice with great pleasure.

Zhou Zifan browsed around, shook his head and said, "I can't see anything wrong with their current study direction. It's obviously better than before."

"That's because it was even less suitable before and I had no choice at all!"

Su Hanshan laughed out loud, "Now that we barely have a choice, of course we shouldn't delay them any longer."

"It seems that just having the secret book is not enough, I also need a vision like yours."

Zhou Zifan then thought about it and asked with concern, "But recently, you have been focusing on these things. Will it delay your own practice?"

Su Hanshan shook his head: "No, it's probably because I broke through with the Qi Sea Extreme Realm and completed the tempering of the tail vertebrae. Now it seems that I can continue to work with a natural and precise feeling without doing any exercises." If you continue to temper it, there will be no mistakes or omissions.”

"Sometimes when I wake up from sleep, I will review my progress while sleeping."

Su Hanshan said with a little pride, "So what I need now is to delve into these new techniques. It will be of great benefit to me to observe the cultivation process of everyone and compare their pros and cons."

"Great!"

Zhou Zifan praised and said with a smile, "Chunyang, Rama, and the book "Great Prajna Zen Skills" you recently showed me, I quite like them, but I have to read through so many secret books like you. ...I can only sigh with excitement at your mentality of meticulously studying martial arts."

Su Hanshan said seriously: "This is the difference in the direction of interest. Senior brother, you can handle all human interactions freely, understand the subtleties of people's hearts, praise without being frivolous, be cold without being depressed, have many thoughts without being mixed, and be honest." It is the best endowment for practicing the Mahaprajna Zen Kung Fu. If I practice this martial arts with you, I will definitely not be able to keep up with your progress."

The Great Prajna Zen Skill was specially selected by Su Hanshan for Zhou Zifan.

The Southern Shaolin in the Southern Song Dynasty was a bunch of business wizards. Even Li Qiumian was amazed by their methods in maritime business. However, their abbot, who wore many hats, still had extremely profound internal skills. It was because of this and the times. Ku Jin's "Great Prajna Zen Skill".

Moreover, this martial art is specially designed for minor training. It doesn’t matter what kind of martial arts you major in. As long as you are understanding of people and have many thoughts, you can absorb the vast amount of thoughts you have in a day and turn them into internal power to help your master. The foundation of the practice.

Zhou Zifan has many talents and abundant financial resources. As long as he is in good health and has a little support behind him, he can mediate between all parties, like a fish in water. He is a perfect match for this skill.

As for Su Hanshan, just seeing a lot of strangers gathering in his home would make him a little annoyed and unwilling to meet them.

"But the one who has benefited the most from these secrets recently may be my second uncle."

Su Hanshan closed the book, rolled up the charcoal pen inside the book, and tapped the palm of his hand, "Maybe the second uncle will break through the true form realm."

Judging from Su Hanshan's current perspective, the "Songhe Chunyang Three Magical Techniques" passed down by the founder actually has many unfinished things. It may be limited by the martial arts founder's own realm and the teaching qualifications he obtained in the past. Not enough.

For example, at this stage of transition from the ladder realm to the true form realm.

There is only one set of relevant mental techniques left in the martial arts school.

That is to say, after you understand this set of mental methods and successfully temper the ladder, when preparing to temper other parts, you will also rely on this set of mental methods.

Because at this time, the human body has undergone fundamental transformation and is extremely adaptable. With this universal mental method, it is not impossible to practice it.

But the efficiency can be imagined.

Strong universality means that the characteristics in all aspects are not obvious. When leaving the spine area and tempering other parts, how can it compare with the secret of developing each part of the body specifically?

Su Hanshan was limited to the Qi Sea realm at that time. When he got those secrets, the biggest use was to figure out the experience and carry out "Thousand Breaths Witnessing Together".

However, Su Tieyi is already close to the peak of the ladder, and he should have prepared for the True Form Realm long ago. After obtaining these secrets, he can use these crystallizations of martial arts wisdom to their fullest potential. "If my uncle really breaks through to this level, then at least the situation within a thousand miles radius will be really worry-free."

Zhou Zifan looked at the many disciples on the ice. The sun shone on the ice and reflected in his eyes. He let out a long feeling and said, "Everything is prosperous and prosperous!"

"Junior brother, we should really thank that senior."

Su Hanshan turned his wrist, looked at the mark, and nodded.

"Amitabha, you two are here. You have traveled farther and farther along the river these days."

Zen Master Guangming's figure flickered, floating from the ice on the river upstream. When he got close, he slowed down his pace, put his palms together, and bowed.

Su Hanshan and Zhou Zifan also raised their palms in front of their chests and returned the salute to him.

Zen Master Guangming said: "The poor monk has an extremely urgent matter and needs to discuss it secretly with Donor Su. I wonder if Donor Su is free now?"

"There happens to be nothing urgent at hand."

Su Hanshan handed the booklet to his senior brother and said, "Where do you want to have a secret conversation, master?"

Zen Master Guangming said: "The county government office, or the donor's own place can be used."

The martial arts gym hasn't been built yet, and there isn't much of an environment for confidential conversations in the restaurant.

Su Hanshan went to the county government office with Zen Master Guangming.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Gao Wenzhong personally led them outside a quiet room and invited them in.

When Su Hanshan saw this formation, he already guessed that this matter was probably related to the county: "Master, please tell me if you have anything to say."

Monk Guangming smiled and said: "Amitabha, it's not that the poor monk wants to talk about anything, it's the county captain who wants to ask the donor to talk in person."

There is no third person in this room, only a few futons, an incense burner, and some finely carved wooden swords hung on the walls.

Su Hanshan was slightly confused when he saw someone outside bringing a copper basin of water, then he retreated and closed the door.

Zen Master Guangming took out a small mirror from his pocket, threw it into the basin, and silently recited a few mantras.

The mirror faces upwards, and there are seven small holes on the frame of the mirror. As the incantation is finished, the small holes light up in sequence.

However, when it only lit up the sixth small hole, it shrank back, wandering between three bright spots and six bright spots, and it was always impossible to light up all seven small holes.

"Over at the county government, is the weather bad today, or are there still masters fighting?"

Zen Master Guangming murmured and changed two seals on his hand. A pure light emitted from his fingertips and shone on the small mirror.

All seven small holes lit up, the mirror surface emitted white light, and the water surface in the entire copper basin calmed down, and then a human-shaped shadow rose above the water surface.

He was a man in his prime with a majestic temperament, wearing a brocade robe, but with a copper belt around his waist. The accessories hanging from the belt included a jade pendant and what looked like fish charms and tiger charms.

There is a hint of military murderousness among the elegance.

"This is the lieutenant of Xueling County, Situ Yuntao."

Zen Master Guangming introduced the two parties, "This is Almsgiver Su Hanshan of Songhe Martial Arts School. While you two were chatting, the poor monk went out first."

After the monk went out and closed the door, Situ Yuntao spoke first.

"As expected, he looks dignified and has a good demeanor."

Situ Yuntao praised him and said, "You and I are both martial arts practitioners. Let's just say it bluntly. Wen Zhong and Guang Ming have both told me about your Songhe Martial Arts School recently."

"Especially you, dissatisfied with your weak years, actually broke through to the realm of heavenly ladder with the extreme realm of Qihai. In the past, you lured the enemy deep into the city and cooperated with you to surround and kill the bandits. Recently, you have eradicated the cancer in the local area and even killed a member of the True Form Realm of the Destiny Sect. The remnants, regardless of their potential and character, are full of praise.”

"Can you show me your method of condensing light and leather energy?"

Su Hanshan looked at the basin curiously. He didn't talk nonsense when he heard the words. He raised his left hand and the golden light from his fingertips illuminated the whole room.

He took two breaths before taking away the golden light.

"it is good!!"

Situ Yuntao was visibly refreshed, "I really used the foundation of "Songhe Chunyang Three Magical Techniques" to achieve the ultimate level and break through the ladder of heaven."

"With a pure yang foundation like yours, it is the most suitable person to practice the "Xuanyin Searching Demons and Six Evils Manual" at the same time. If the two prove each other, within a few months, you should be able to encounter few opponents in the realm of the ladder. "

"I also come from Tiandu Immortal Palace. Although I am a disciple of Liaoyuan Peak, I once obtained the skills from the Xuanyin Sutra before the Xuantai realm. I would like to use this set of skills to help you."

This Lord Commander was indeed a quick talker, or perhaps he had already learned enough about it from Gao Wenzhong and Zen Master Guangming.

After meeting for a while, he fully explained his purpose.

After the recent influx of refugees to various places, Cangshui County is under pressure, but it is still relatively safe. The situation in other counties is not very optimistic.

The people of Situ Yuntao's line were stymied by the Situ family and could only watch the local officials who were close to them miserable. However, they heard from Monk Guangming that there was actually a ladder in Cangshui County who was dissatisfied with the weak crown. Master, you have an idea.

The Northern Territory Shenwei Banquet entertains newly promoted ladder masters from the northern counties in the past ten years. Among them, those who can reach the top three will have the opportunity to enter the Shenwei Mansion's elixir treasure house to select elixirs.

However, there is also a precedent for exchanging this opportunity for other demands.

If the Shenwei Mansion could be invited to intervene, Situ Yuntao would have a chance to break the situation.

"Is there such a thing?"

Su Hanshan muttered, "Since Lord Commander-in-Chief wants to contact the Shenwei Mansion, it doesn't seem serious enough to ask me to go alone. Even if I win the top three, I am only at the Heavenly Ladder realm. I can really ask the Shenwei Mansion to interfere in the affairs of Xueling County. ?”

Situ Yuntao shook his head and said: "You and I are from the same sect. If you go to participate in the mountain gate trial, you will definitely be able to get started. Just call me senior brother."

Su Hanshan said in surprise: "Senior brother?"

Even if they are from the same sect, they should be called Master Uncle and Master Uncle.

"In the past hundred years, Tiandu Immortal Mansion has opened its gate ten times and accepted ten batches of disciples, but these ten batches of disciples are all of the same generation."

Situ Yuntao smiled and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. If you can win the top three, it would be most appropriate for you to hand this ladder to the Shenwei Mansion. I just want to see if you are willing to do this for me?"

Su Hanshan said calmly: "This matter can be done in one fell swoop. Of course I have no reason to refuse."

"Although you can kill many people with one stone, it also means that you may be in the sight of some people. Moreover, this opportunity to choose elixirs in Shenwei Mansion is also very precious."

Situ Yuntao said, "I can give you another ten days to go back and inquire about the value of Shenwei's chosen elixir and consider it carefully."

Su Hanshan smiled and said decisively: "No, my home is here. I can't escape the overall situation in the future, so I might as well seize the opportunity. In these ten days, with the new skills I have acquired, maybe I can Improve more."

Situ Yuntao's smile became even brighter: "You are still young, but you are not short of courage. Then I will teach you the Xuanyin Scripture. If things don't work out by then, you can still practice this set of martial arts. Don't worry too much. , if things come to pass, I will contact Shanmen directly and complete the exercises for you!"

"Listen up. Heaven is pure yang, qi refines yin and yang, and the three laws and six evil spirits work together to create heaven!"

Situ Yuntao's tone suddenly changed, it was deep and distant, cold and vast, "The good energy is good for the body, the evil energy is harmful to the body, search out the demons and destroy the evil ones, the body is like a bright mirror, it is mysterious yin in the sky, reflecting the sun, and spreading all over the world." Ji Da Di..."

"If you are successful in searching for demons, you can control the six evil spirits. The six evil spirits are on the ground, and the feng shui is in conflict. The six evil spirits are in people, and they are angry and punish the evil. The six evil spirits are in the sky, and there are six stars hanging in the sky: bell stars, sparks, earth and sky, and earth tribulations. Qingyang, Tuoluo, combined with the real body, mixed Xuanyin..."

These sounds did not spread out of the room, or even to the surrounding area.

But in Su Hanshan's ears, it was like the echoes of thousands of valleys, one after another, making him fascinated and swimming in it. Before he knew it, he was deeply impressed and remembered.

'I just think that the reason why Chunyang Gong is still unfinished is because the subsequent state of mind method is not complete enough. I have been trying to learn from the secrets of hundreds of schools of thought and improve them. But now it seems that even the detailed records in the previous part are not fully developed. joints. ’

Su Hanshan has sat down cross-legged, eyes slightly closed, immersed in the scriptures of the Xuanyin Sutra, his thoughts are whirling, and the skills in his body have also undergone subtle changes. Reviewing the old and learning the new, he vaguely feels the meaning of the skills. More context in .

‘Among the three pure yang methods, the three states of air, liquid and solid, it turns out that there is a secret trick in each of them, which can only be performed in combination with the Xuanyin Sutra? ! ’
