I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Wow! ! !

A basin of water was poured on the three people.

Sun Xingzu woke up with a start, as if his mind had not yet completely recovered from the absurd dream just now.

I actually dreamed that a young man who was still in his infancy defeated all three of their masters with just two strikes.

It was so ridiculous, he almost thought...

"woke up?"

Su Hanshan was sitting in the lobby, still drinking tea.

Sun Xingzu had to admit that what was just now was not a dream, but a reality more absurd than a nightmare.

He soon discovered that he could not move, and the clothes on his body were gone, covered only with a piece of tattered linen cloth. From the corner of his eye, he could catch a glimpse of Monk Benzhi on the right and an old man with smooth eyebrows, Benyin, on the left.

He didn't even need to look in the mirror to think that he was probably not much different from Monk Benyin now.

"I am really blind and blind."

Monk Benyin was the first to speak, with a loud voice, "The benefactor has deep roots of wisdom. Although he is not very old, his wisdom is as majestic as the sky is high and the sea is deep. I actually violated the precept before and am willing to follow the benefactor and do hard labor for ten years to redeem this deed." !”

"cough!"

Su Hanshan almost choked on his tea. He raised his eyes and saw the old monk's upright and sincere appearance. He couldn't help but admire, "Good work. Your facial skills are much better than your fists and feet."

After Monk Benzhi woke up, he was still looking at Su Hanshan with a look of surprise and dissatisfaction. After hearing the loud words next to him, his face turned green and white, and he suddenly closed his eyes, showing an expression of enlightenment. .

It seems like everything has suddenly faded away.

Sun Xingzu's face also twitched, he barely swallowed, and said in a harsh voice: "I wonder what the city lord has done to my men?"

"Those outside the City Lord's Mansion have all fallen asleep, sleeping like children, very sweetly."

Su Hanshan said casually, "Originally, there were more than two thousand people, which was really troublesome. Fortunately, they all gathered near the city lord's palace, fifty feet at a time, so it was very easy."

"Looking at the messy appearance of their clothes and armor, with dust and stains everywhere, they might as well be fleeing rather than doing business."

"You three should have some status. Tell the truth about why you are like this, lest I use some means to lose your dignity."

Sun Xingzu fell silent, thinking about his words.

Monk Benyin next to him had already spoken: "This matter is actually..."

"you shut up."

Su Hanshan flicked his fingers and sealed the two monks' mute points and hearing to prevent them from colluding in confession.

This old monk's mentality is too flexible and should not be underestimated.

Then he added another finger to Sun Xingzu.

Although these three people are not very good at fighting, their physical bodies are indeed extraordinary.

Based on the quality of Su Hanshan's Qi, if it were used to acupuncture acupuncture points at the peak of the normal ladder, it would be able to last for more than half an hour at least.

But after it was used to seal the acupuncture points of the three of them, it was quickly dissipated by physical instinct.

During this process, the three of them were even unconscious, but once they woke up, the process accelerated again.

Sun Xingzu had seen many acupuncture techniques. Logically speaking, for a strong person who had the soul in his body, it would be impossible to tap the acupuncture points unless he was beaten directly to death or crippled. Su Hanshan surprised him again.

But he had no time to think about it now. After all, the lives of two thousand close brothers were still in their hands.

After pondering for a moment, he began to tell the story.

A very simple thing. Following the internal fighting in Juma City more than half a year ago, there was another mutiny in Juma City not long ago.

The Wuxiong Sect from the Donghu tribe used a trick of hand-in-hand cooperation to seize control of Juma City. The original city lord and guard general were killed.

As the deputy city lord, Sun Xingzu received the support of the big temple in the city and took advantage of the chaos to flee, preparing to go to Jiangdong to find reinforcements.

But there was no food on the road, and they happened to encounter a group of cavalrymen under Chen Wanchuan who were escaping. Knowing the existence of Dongping City, they were ready to come and extort a sum of money.

"Koto?"

Su Hanshan didn't know much about the locations of Dongping City and Juma City, so he found out after asking carefully.

Juma City, which is rumored to be close to the river, is actually close to the Grand Canal. It is not too far from the territory of the Donghu tribe, but it is far away from Jiangdong.

In the past, business transactions between Jiangdong and Juma City relied on sea vessels and coastal navigation.

Sun Xingzu failed to grab the boat at that time, so he could only take the land route.

Su Hanshan asked: "Since it's so far away, why are you so confident that you can ask for help?"

Sun Xingzu said: "Those are Hu people. After the Hu people control Juma City, can the business with Jiangdong be so orderly in the future? This will also be a big loss to Jiangdong."

Moreover, Prince Wu's Mansion in Jiangdong is powerful and powerful. It is one of the few existences in the land of Kyushu today, occupying dozens of cities.

King Lao Wu even negotiated with Juma City last year and wanted to send two troops to clear out the living corpses along the way.

Open up safe roads for all the large and small cities between Juma City and Jiangdong, so that people can reconnect with news and travel between cities.

This shows how abundant Jiangdong's military strength is.

It's just that at the beginning, the cities where the canals entered the sea, with Juma City as the core, felt that it was enough to have the convenience of waterways, and there was no need to waste that energy.

Sun Xingzu feels a little regretful when he thinks about it now.

After Su Hanshan asked him a lot of questions, he sealed his mute acupoint and hearing, and asked about the root cause instead. Ben Yin's rhetoric is similar, but the difference is.

"Actually, the old King Wu may have already sent troops."

Monk Benyin said, "Our temple is involved in a lot of business. In the past six months, I have occasionally had long conversations with guests from Jiangdong. I learned that Prince Wu's Mansion had not waited for a response from the canal cities for a long time, so I might as well do it myself and calculate based on time. It’s not far from Dongping City.”

Su Hanshan raised his eyebrows: "Since we are not far away, you still come here to extort food from our city. Do you really not know what the city is like?"

Monk Benyin quickly said: "It is precisely because it is not far away that I thought that after contacting the people in Jiangdong, we can report back to Dongping City soon. Otherwise, if the news is not transmitted, the Hu people will continue to go south in the future. , Dongping may also suffer a disaster."

"Oh, because I witnessed the barbarians' cruelty and fled all the way, I accumulated a lot of resentment in my heart, so I disrespected the city lord."

In fact, he didn't think much about it at the time. He just thought that getting some food would be beneficial without any harm.

It's a pity that I encountered an evil star.

Su Hanshan said: "Don't Sun Xingzu know that Prince Wu's palace sent troops alone?"

"Except for those of us who do business directly, the city lord is mainly responsible for shipping matters. The deputy city lord has no control over this aspect."

Monk Benyin said, "When we are on the way to ask for help, we will go straight to Jiangdong anyway, so there is no need to mention this matter specifically."

Su Hanshan thought about it, then asked about the details of the practice of entering the soul into the body, then sealed the old monk's acupoints, and then asked Ben Zhi.

It turns out that warriors in this world can choose some living things after entering the realm of fist spirit.

Use your own psychic fist to refine it every day so that its volume remains unchanged, and a certain internal characteristic that is valued gradually transforms until ordinary things become pure spiritual things, transcendent and refined, and can be integrated into the body and step into the realm of the spirit. .

Because, even for insects, seedlings, and bird eggs, it will take three to ten years to refine them to the point of pure spirituality with fist intention. For those with mediocre qualifications, it may be extended to more than twenty years.

Therefore, the vast majority of warriors choose insects.

The standard for pure spiritual things is to refine bugs that originally have entities into a state of pure spirituality that is half virtual and half real.

However, only the pure spiritual beings cultivated by oneself can be regarded as the place of one's own soul. If it is faked by others, it will not be in line with the true meaning of martial arts, all previous efforts will be wasted, and you need to start from scratch.

Su Hanshan said: "What the three of you have is the kind of high-frequency oscillating martial arts physique. What kind of spiritual energy have you condensed?"

Benzhi said: "Cicada!"

"Cicada."

Su Hanshan said leisurely, "The cicada woke up before the golden wind moved. You chose the cicada, but you only developed its vibration characteristics, and you didn't get any of its hidden specialties of induction."

Ben Zhi hummed: "Although the characteristics after cultivation of Shenpo Martial Arts are very different from the original appearance, it still has this foundation. The most distinctive feature of Cicada is actually vibration, not induction. "

"The so-called golden wind has not moved, etc., are just the involuntary changes caused by the seasonal climate of heaven and earth. They are not foreseeable at all. The images in the poems are just far-fetched interpretations by literati."

Su Hanshan smiled: "Really?"

Although what he has come into contact with in this world is only some relatively common techniques, he has deeply felt a kind of spiritual cultivation from the context of those techniques.

The martial arts of the Chu Dynasty have been perfected for too long. The path trodden by the predecessors was originally intended to allow more ordinary people to follow it well, so there are details everywhere, and everything is consistent with common sense, and Be reasonable.

Taking the aura of all things from all eternity as the starting point before all living beings existed, the human spirit and body are only latecomers.

The martial arts in this world, with the human god as the starting point and the human body as the axis, are obviously taking a more solipsistic approach.

Far-fetched, not the way things are? That doesn't matter at all.

Human culture has already endowed it with such characteristics, and people's hearts are like this, so it is completely possible to change that thing into the advantages recognized by people's hearts.

That should be regarded as the transformation of ordinary things into extraordinary things.

"If you only know this about the realm of souls, but you are already able to step into this realm, then I can only say that you should really thank the sages."

Su Hanshan said this with emotion, and saw Ben Zhi's expression obviously changed.

Huh? He originally just lamented that maybe the skills of these people were advanced enough, and the creators had begun to consider their universal applicability, and the difficulty of practicing them was lower than other local skills.

Although this also conceals some advantages, it is indeed the behavior of sages.

However, this subtle change in Benzhi's expression felt more like a secret being revealed.

It should be normal for a person in a high position to practice a powerful skill, and his mood changes should not be so obvious.

"you……"

Su Hanshan's eyes were a little subtle, "Didn't you rely on common sense to enter the spiritual realm?"

Ben Zhi pursed his lips tightly and kept silent.

Su Hanshan laughed, sealed his acupuncture points, and opened Sun Xingzu: "I didn't expect you to have such a treasure. I also want to train a few spiritual masters, so hand over the things."

"Why are you talking about this?"

Sun Xingzu's face changed dramatically, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Well, it has come to this point anyway, so it doesn't hurt to tell you. At that time, the great general monk Tan Xuanzang led thirteen stick monks to join Emperor Taizong's army and work together to quell the troubled times. "

"Later Emperor Taizong ascended the throne and created a prosperous world. Master Tan Xuanzang was also listed as one of the twenty-four heroes, and he passed down the golden cicada, one of the twenty-four holy spirits."

"A few years ago, this golden cicada did belong to our Juma City, but when we escaped, we were not able to take it away. It was still hidden in an absolutely secret place."

"If you want to get Jin Chanzi, I'm afraid you have to think of a way to repel the barbarians first."
