Chapter 25 Two or three past events (1)
"This first story is about a weapon." Monk Yu said leisurely, "300 years ago, there was an amazing place in Middle-earth called Tianji Palace. There are hundreds of millions of books in the palace, and the capable people in the palace Most of them are called fortune-tellers, they study heaven and man, and their wisdom is outstanding. Unfortunately, this wisdom did not make them worry-free forever, and one day it led to a great disaster."

"At that time, it was the time when the Song Dynasty was destroying the Yuan Dynasty, and the soldiers and horses were in power, and their clothes were poor. With their unique skills and abilities and the wealth of the enemy's country, the Tianji Palace became the only hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty. Among the disciples of the Tianji Palace, there are many outstanding people. , in the south repeatedly raised rebel armies to fight against the Yuan court. But because of the spies in the palace, the Yuan court finally knew the location of the Tianji Palace and sent an army of water and land to attack. That battle was extremely tragic, and more than half of the [-] elite soldiers of the Yuan army were killed Even the son of the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty died in battle in the palace. But in the end, they were outnumbered, and the hundreds of millions of books in Tianji Palace were finally burned to ashes..."

Lu Jian couldn't help but ask, "Where are the people in the palace?" Monk Yu said, "The ancestors in Tianxing Palace had already taken precautions and left a secret path. Most of the people in the Forbidden City escaped." Lu Jian breathed a sigh of relief. , nodding again and again.

"At that time, the barbarians were rampant in the middle land, and the surviving operators could not gain a foothold, so they had to retreat to an island in the East China Sea by boat. They were outstanding in wisdom and harbored the hatred of destroying the palace, so they unanimously decided to take revenge on the Yuan people. Among the fortune tellers, there is another great fortune teller who is the most outstanding. This talent is both intelligent and martial arts. It is a pity that he was seriously injured when he destroyed the palace. After he recovered from his injuries, the matter of revenge has already been decided."

"This great accountant knows well that grievances will be repaid, and there will never be any retribution. He was originally unwilling to participate in this matter, but he is very affectionate. After many twists and turns, he finally couldn't resist the begging of relatives and friends, and joined the ranks of revenge. At this time, the power of the people of Yuan Dynasty was at its peak. However, the Tianji Palace has recently been severely damaged, and if it is fought with manpower, it will be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Therefore, after careful consideration, the great calculator proposed to build a powerful magic weapon. It took 15 years to build this."

Lu Jian was surprised and said, "15 years? So long?"

"It's not too long." Monk Yu said, "In the Spring and Autumn Period, King Goujian of Yue took revenge, and it took ten years to get together and ten years to learn. It took 20 years before and after. Tianji Palace is much weaker than the Yue Kingdom back then. What's more The weapon is huge in scale and precise in structure, even if wise men gather together and famous craftsmen gather together, it will be difficult to make it in a hurry."

Lu Jian asked curiously, "What exactly does that weapon look like?" Monk Yu shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before, but I just heard it vaguely mentioned by the ancestors of the ancestors. It is said that it can burst underground springs, reverse the flow of rivers on land, and form a torrential flood. , engulfing the city; it can also trigger tornadoes and hurricanes, blowing from the sea to the land, and even gather clouds to form rain, which lasts for several months."

Lu Jian was dumbfounded when he heard it. If these words hadn't come from Monk Yu, he would have taken them as overseas stories that Lu Haihai boasted about.But Monk Yu is so solemn, which shows that it is definitely not a lie, but a fact.

Monk Yu continued: "On that day, the weapon was finally completed, and three uninhabited islands were destroyed in a small trial at sea. After 15 years of hard work, everyone cheered and cheered. Only the big operator was depressed, From the beginning of designing the weapon, he felt very hesitant, because the weapon is too powerful, and once used, the casualties will be astonishing. He is a peerless wise man, addicted to exploring wisdom, knowing this, he still can't help but want to create a weapon. Take a peek at what’s going on, and when you look at it at this moment, you don’t feel fear in your heart.”

"Now that the weapon is ready, everyone is determined to retaliate with an eye. First, destroy the capital city of the Yuan people. If the capital is wiped out, the world will inevitably be in chaos. At that time, they can take the opportunity to revive the Han Dynasty. You must know that the Yuan Dynasty has millions of soldiers and civilians. Once weapons are used, almost no one in the city People can be spared. It's a pity that everyone is obsessed with the idea of ​​revenge, and they have long since ignored these things." Speaking of this, Monk Yu couldn't help but sighed.

Lu Jian couldn't help but asked, "Is this weapon really used?" Monk Yu said, "If it were you, would you know how to use it?" Lu Jian shook his head and said, "I won't." No need, others will use it after all, if so, how will you deal with it?" Lu Jian thought for a while and said in a low voice, "I'll either destroy the weapon or hide it."

Monk Yu was silent for a long time, then sighed: "It's rare that you have this insight, and it coincides with that great fortune teller. When he saw the power of the weapon, he thought of destroying it, but after 15 years of painstaking efforts, he finally couldn't bear to lose it." Destroyed. He had repeated conflicts. After discussing with his wife, he set up a scam to lure everyone away from the weapon. Then, his husband and wife drove the weapon and left the island. At that time, everyone realized that they had been deceived and chased after them by boat. , any giant rushing boat would never approach them, and everyone could only watch them sail away into the distance, and they never came back from then on.”

After hearing this, Lu Jian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but his heart was filled with disappointment. He didn't know what kind of feelings he had when he thought about the couple abandoning their relatives and friends and leaving their homeland.After thinking for a while, he asked again: "The couple took away the weapon, didn't the rest make another one?"

"It was made." Monk Yu sighed, "but that master planner took away all the blueprints. What's more, without his magical calculations, the weapons made by everyone would be useless. After more than ten years, Everyone on the island failed to achieve anything, and finally became disheartened and gave up the idea of ​​revenge. It's just that the big planner has received countless infamys since then, and has been hated by the world throughout his life."

When Monk Yu said this, he got up and headed west without further words.The two walked for a while, and the sun was already high. Lu Jianyao saw a hotel by the roadside, with bamboo walls and low eaves, and the front door was deserted. He immediately proposed to rest here.

When the two came to the door, Lu Jian raised his voice, "Is anyone there?" He called twice, and an old woman walked out of the door. Her back was bent, her face was wrinkled, her eyes were cloudy, and she seemed a little afraid of light.She glanced at the two of them, took half a step back, shrank to the eaves and said, "It turned out to be a monk begging for food." The Japanese country believes in Buddhism, and monks walk in the country, never suffering from hunger and starvation, so the old woman was always there. Seeing Monk Yu's attire, he knew what he was here for, snorted and said, "Come in."

Monk Yu saluted and said: "Female benefactor, there is trouble." The old woman fell silent and then backed away.When the two of them entered, there was a stale air lingering in their nostrils, it was expected that no one came for a long time, and there was dust all over the window sills and corners.The old woman turned into the inner room and brought out a bamboo plate with several snow-white rice balls on it.

Lu Jian saw that the old woman was so poor and still treated her guests so hospitablely, she was grateful in her heart, groped for a few coins on her body, handed them to her and said, "Take it, ma'am."

The old woman held onto the money without raising her eyes, and muttered: "Monks are the only ones who ask for money. Is there any monk who gives money?" Lu Jian said, "I'm not a monk, so I naturally want to give money." It's not a monk, but he is. If you follow the monk, you are the monk." Lu Jian saw that she was old and faint, and had no way to explain it. When the old woman stepped back, he reached out to take a rice ball. The monk wanted to get the rice balls, and said anxiously, "Master, I can't eat these rice balls."

Monk Yu was stunned at the sound, and suddenly saw Lu Jian throwing the rice ball on the table, the rice burst and a three-inch centipede crawled out of it, the color was purple and golden, it was a very poisonous thing.

Monk Yu's face darkened, and he looked at the old woman in a blink of an eye, and there was a sly smile on the old woman's face.Lu Jian yelled, grabbed a rice ball and threw it at her.The rice ball hit the old woman, and there was only a "swipe", and the old woman's body collapsed in response to the rice ball, turning into a thin piece.

This incident was extremely strange, Lu Jian was taken aback, and rushed forward, but saw that there was only a set of underwear and a human skin mask left on the ground.He picked up the mask, wet his hands, turned around and felt like vomiting, but the mask was bloody and bloody, it was just peeled off from a person.

"Be careful." Monk Yu yelled, and Lu Jian lightened the back of his neck, and he had already lifted it up in the air. Out of the corner of his eye, a ray of bright knife light broke through the ground. If he was in place, his feet would be severed by the knife .

He sank down and was already on the beam. Lu Jian turned his eyes and looked down. Monk Yu looked down with a serious expression on his face.Lu Jian pressed his hand on the wooden beam, and suddenly his heart moved, and he shouted, "The beam is empty!"

The cry came to an end, several streaks of light came out through the beam, Monk Yu was prepared when he heard the sound, he swept the three steel darts away with a flick of his sleeve, his right fist struck the beam like thunder.

The wooden beam shattered, and a black shadow shot out, hitting the wall heavily.A big hole was knocked out of the bamboo wall, and the black shadow only flashed before disappearing.

After the beam was destroyed, Monk Yu and Lu Jian fell to the ground, their foothold was uncertain, white light flashed in the soil, and the long knife was stretched out.Monk Yu shouted loudly, without dodging or evading, his left foot stepped on the tip of the knife, and there was a crackling sound, and the long knife snapped every inch of it.Monk Yu's feet went straight into the ground half a foot, the huge inn shook, a groan came from the ground, a black shadow jumped out of the ground two feet away, and flew away like lightning.

Lu Jian tried to chase after him, but Yu Monk held him back and said, "Don't chase, go to the inner room and have a look." Lu Jian had to follow him into the inner room, and when he entered, he felt bloody.Looking fixedly, there was a bloody man's corpse near the door. Beside the man's corpse was the corpse of an old woman. The old woman was completely naked, and her face had been stripped from her forehead to her neck.

Lu Jian just glanced at it, and couldn't help throwing up holding the door frame.The fish monk even claimed the crime.Lu Jian calmed down a bit, and said angrily, "These people are too hateful, does Master recognize them?"

"The monk recognizes it." Monk Yu showed a sad look, "These people have been chasing the monk for nearly ten years. I don't think they are so cruel today, even the old man will not be spared."

Lu Jian looked at Monk Yu, full of doubts, and was about to ask, Monk Yu said, "Let these two people be buried first." Lu Jian agreed, leaning over to hug the man's body, touching the man's clothes, fingers Suddenly feel strange.In an instant, the corpse moved slightly, and a blade of light shot out from under the crotch, stabbing directly at Lu Jian's lower abdomen.

Lu Jian felt strange all his life, so he resorted to the technique of "jumping hemp", and stretched a few feet behind him.The knife flashed, and the corpse turned over in a somersault. It turned out to be a masked man, who was about to stab the fish monk with a knife, but Lu Jian kicked him in the air and kicked him hard on the wrist.

The man who feigned death suffered pain and let go of the long knife.Seeing that the situation was not good, he fell short, half of his body fell to the ground, and suddenly he heard a sharp drink in his ears, his waist and abdomen were slightly cold, followed by a sharp pain, his upper body rolled out close to the ground, and hit the room with a "dang" sound. Corner rice jar.

The man died before he stared at Monk Yu and hissed, "Monk, you kill me...you kill me..." Blood gushed out of his mouth as he shouted.

Monk Yu shook his head and said, "Nin Saburo, this knife was not cut by the monk." The man endured the pain and turned his eyes, seeing Lu Jian holding a long knife with blood dripping down the blade, he couldn't help but suddenly realized, and said with a miserable smile: "Who are you, can you kill me? Shinobu Saburo?"

Lu Jian said: "My name is Lu Jian." Ren Saburo said: "Good man, please intervene for me." Intervention is to cut off the head of a Japanese warrior who is about to die by caesarean section, and help him die.Lu Jian had never made mistakes for others, he hesitated for a moment, and saw Ren Saburo's head tilted, and he died of anger.

The two looked around and found that there was no enemy hiding, so they buried the corpses in the room and found some rice noodles to satisfy their hunger.After the meal, the two set off to the east. On the way, Monk Yu looked indifferent and said nothing. Lu Jian guessed that he must be angry at himself for killing the man. If the monk wants to complain, there is nothing he can do.

At night, the two found a cave to shelter.Monk Yu sat cross-legged for a long time and sighed, "Lu Jian, do you know that if you use Jieli one more time, you will owe an extra debt. According to the second law of "Hei Tian Shu", you must pay back in the future, and the more you borrow Jieli, the more debt you will owe. The more, the more painful the Heitian Tribulation will be."

Lu Jiandao: "I know this, Ning Bukong said it." Monk Yu said: "Since you know, why do you still want to kill Saburo Ninja? The speed of the knife is a lot of calamity."

Lu Jian said without hesitation: "These people are cruel and hateful, even the old lady will not be spared. If they are not killed, will they kill more people?" Monk Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Lu Jian, you are finally People in the world are too obsessed with good and evil. Anyway, the monk taught you a kung fu, and if you encounter a strong enemy in the future, you may be able to save your life."

He stood up, crossed his arms, reversed his left hand to just under his right armpit, and brought his right hand straight down to hold his right knee.Lu Jian was stunned to see his body so weirdly twisted.

Monk Yu said slowly: "Remember, this is 'I look'." After finishing speaking, he assumed a strange posture, kicked the back of the head with his right foot, and grabbed the neck of his left foot with his right hand, saying, "This It's called 'human appearance'." Later, the limbs were twisted, and successively changed into "shouzhe appearance", "horse king appearance", "monkey king appearance", "sparrow mother appearance", "male pig appearance", "spiritual fish appearance" and "half-lion appearance". Sixteen phases, including phases, phases of white hairs, and phases of the heavens, have been demonstrated, and Lu Jian is ordered to practice accordingly.

At the beginning, Lu Jian found it very difficult to practice, but with the help of calamity, it gradually became easier. By midnight, he had learned a dozen or so signs.Monk Yu suddenly said: "That's it for today, go to sleep." Lu Jian was excited and said, "It's not too late to go to bed if you practice the two phases again."

Monk Yu said lightly: "Once the "Book of Hei Tian" is mastered, no matter whether it is practicing kung fu or using martial arts, it will be extremely fast. For example, even if you are extremely talented, it will take several years to practice the twelve phases, but you can do it in three hours. Xiaocheng, all because of borrowing the robbery power from the "Book of Hei Tian". According to the second law of "the four laws of existence and non-existence", the robbery power in your body is empty and needs to be repaid urgently. But if you continue to practice, it will eventually damage your body." Lu Jian had no choice but to give up, adjusted his breath for a while, and fell asleep.

In his sleep, Lu Jian suddenly felt his body lighten, and he floated up from the ground. Looking up, he came to that half-light and half-dark place again. In the darkness, the stars remained the same, only "Ziwei", "Taiwei", Tianshi" Sanyuan was shrouded in a gray mist.

"Lu Jian..." A voice rang in his ear.Lu Jian heard it familiarly, and looked around, but there was no one there, only to hear the voice calling again: "Lu Jian..." Lu Jian couldn't help following the sound.Hearing the cries incessantly, up and down, east and west, Lu Jian also walked in a daze.After walking for an unknown distance, suddenly my whole body seemed to be on fire, with pain and heat.Lu Jian let out a scream, and suddenly felt that the sky was spinning, the stars disappeared, and his feet fell back to the ground again.He opened his eyes and looked, the surroundings were pitch black, the shadows of the trees were uneven, his body was soaked in cold sweat, suddenly a gust of evening wind blew by, and he shivered unknowingly.

He twisted his thigh fiercely, the pain piercing his mind, and slowly recalled in his mind, he was supposed to be sleeping soundly in the cave, why did he come here suddenly?Just as he was puzzled, he suddenly heard a cat meowing, and looked up, Fomalhaut was squatting in the distance, licking his paws.Lu Jian was puzzled, and said to himself, "How did I get here?"

Suddenly, Monk Yu's voice came from behind him: "You ran for more than twenty miles, don't you know it?" Lu Jian turned around and saw Monk Yu standing behind him, and asked in a daze, "Master, I ...I've been dreaming! Someone called me in the dream." Now he explained the things in the dream in detail.

Monk Yu said, "Do you still remember the voice that called you?" Lu Jian pondered, "It sounds familiar, like, like..." Suddenly his face turned pale.Seeing his expression, Monk Yu asked, "Who do you look like?" Lu Jian said with difficulty, "Like...like Ning Bukong."

Monk Yu was not surprised, nodded and said: "Sure enough, it is the art of 'summoning slaves', according to the first law of "Hei Tian Shu", 'no master, no slave', if the master lives, the slave will live, if the master dies, the slave will die , That’s why the robber master is in danger, you can summon the robber slave with your spiritual consciousness. I have heard of this method, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. At this moment, Ning Bukong must be using this method to call you back.”

Lu Jian broke out in cold sweat when he heard it, and said in surprise, "Wouldn't he be able to call me back at any time?" Monk Yu shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, I have my own way to break him." After finishing speaking, he walked silently.Soon after the two returned to the cave, Lu Jianzhong lay down again.In his dream, he ran for twenty miles, exhausted, fell asleep in a moment, and there was no other dream, and he faintly felt a huge warm current slowly flowing in his body.

This sleep was comfortable, and it was three poles in the sun before waking up.Looking up, Monk Yu was sitting with his back facing him, looking at his back, he was getting thinner and thinner.
