The catcher was left speechless by the question. He looked at Xu Huaiyi and said, "Mr. Xu, it's not that we don't want to help, but this matter is of great importance and we have to stop!" After that, he ordered the local government officials All stop.
I saw a skinny old man suddenly jumped out and shouted to Master Qingwu: "Master Qingwu, do you dare to come out and fight with me? If you win, hey, we will go down the mountain; if you lose, you have to let us Search it!"
He Ziran took a look and realized that this person was a ghost from the Western Regions. I felt strange in my heart that even if this old man had superb martial arts skills, he might not be able to defeat Taoist Master Qingwu. If he is so confident, he may resort to conspiracy and tricks again. Since Taoist Master Qingwu is trying to clear my name, I can’t just sit back and watch!
He Ziran drew his sword, jumped to the front of the formation, pointed the sword at the ghosts of the Western Regions, and shouted: "Xiao Shuai Ximen, I heard that you were a flower-picking thief back then. What's wrong, now that you are old, you have turned into a court eagle dog?"
The Ghost of the Western Regions squinted his eyes and said, "Where are you from, little ghost? Have you recognized the wrong person? Call me 'Ghost of the Western Regions'!"
"Hahahaha!" He Ziran looked up to the sky and laughed, saying: "It's ridiculous! It's ridiculous! Only a despicable and shameless person would deny his past. Thief Zhong San, don't you think so?"
Zhong San next to the Ghost of the Western Region seemed unconcerned and said: "You little guy, how dare you be disrespectful to our seniors. I, Zhong San, will not argue with you. What's the matter, do you want to take the lead for the Wudang faction?"
"If you, Zhong San, are not convinced, then come up and try. If you lose, get out!"
"What if you lose?" Zhong San asked.
"If I lose, I'll get out of here!"
"Ghost of the Western Regions, come up and I'll plunder the formation for you!" Zhong San knew that He Ziran had strong martial arts and was good at using needles, but he was scared, so he encouraged the Ghosts of the Western Regions to come forward first.
The ghost of the Western Regions relied on his strong martial arts skills, and it was unbearable for this kid to insult him like this, so he "cut his flesh and fed it to the eagle" with a move, and slashed He Ziran's neck with the full moon scimitar horizontally!
He Ziran saw that his sword skills were fierce and vicious, so he used the "heat wave rolling" move, the sword from bottom to top, to chop off the opponent's wrist!
The ghost of the Western Region was terrified. How could this happen? He knew that his martial arts came from the West. The Western element belongs to metal, and fire overcomes metal. The opponent's internal energy is filled with fire. I'm afraid he will look ugly today! So he jumped up, fell upside down from the air, and slashed at He Ziran's back with his knife!
He Ziran used Qingfeng Sword to block. The two of them went back and forth, back and forth, fighting for more than a hundred rounds, and it was hard to tell the winner.
Taoist priest Qing Wu thought, this ghost from the Western Regions has very strange martial arts, and only He Langzhong's tricks can fight it. If you fight by yourself, you are not sure you can win. He Langzhong absorbed the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought and applied the techniques of Yin Yang and Five Elements to martial arts, so he was able to use all kinds of magic to block the attack of this old man from the Western Regions.
Zhong San was secretly glad that he didn't get involved, otherwise, he would definitely not be a match for He Ziran. So he scratched his bald head and shouted: "Brother Ximen, come on, kill this kid!"
The ghost of the Western Regions was getting tired, and I thought to myself, if you guys are making sarcastic remarks next to me and you don't come to help me, it seems that I have to use a trick and wait for an opportunity to escape first! So his sword skills sped up, and he kept turning back to tease He Ziran. This move is called "turning back to attack". Although the superficial meaning is to turn back to attack, in fact it is to turn around and run quickly to save your life.
He Ziran saw what he meant, so he used the "soft wave through the air" palm technique with his left hand and flicked his index finger to the opponent's face three times, forcing the ghost from the Western Regions to take three steps back. He Ziran took the opportunity to use his left hand to shoot a needle. Until the silver light flew towards the Yintang point where the ghosts of the Western Regions were located!
With sharp eyes, Zhong San shouted: "Be careful!" The ghost from the Western Regions did a backflip, and the silver needle passed by the tip of his nose, causing him to break into a cold sweat!
Wherever the ghosts from the Western Regions dared to stay, they immediately jumped into the air, hit the ground with both palms, and with the power of their palms, flew more than a foot away, shouting: "Mr. Xu, I have to retreat first!" Then he climbed up to the treetop and disappeared. trace.
Xu Huaiyi saw that the ghosts from the Western Regions had escaped first, and thought that the remaining masters were no match for He Ziran and the Wudang Clan, so he hurriedly hid behind a few masters and sergeants and said, "Let's retreat first and come back another day!"
He Ziran shouted: "Xu Huaiyi, return the scripture to me first, otherwise I will see you again in the future. Hehe, then don't blame me for being rude!"
Xu Huaiyi said while retreating: "What scripture? Don't listen to the nonsense of Qingwu Lao Tao!" As he spoke, he covered his left eye and hugged everyone down the mountain.
Taoist Priest Qingwu clasped his hands and said, "Mr. He, it's fortunate that you came and resolved this fight. Otherwise, we would have lost a lot of people on both sides."
He Ziran returned the courtesy and said: "Taoist Priest, you are too polite. Why did Taoist Ziran come forward? How could He Ziran still stand by and watch?"
Taoist Master Qingwu said: "Mr. He, please come to the temple and talk about it."
After the two parties sat down, He Ziran asked: "Taoist Priest, I heard that you knew the whereabouts of the scriptures, so I looked for them. I didn't expect to meet Xu Huaiyi and the ghosts of the Western Regions."
Taoist priest Qingwu said: "Mr. He, I just heard that the scriptures fell into the hands of Xu Huaiyi's father, Magistrate Xu, and this magistrate Xu had two ideas. One was to dedicate the scriptures to the court in exchange for titles; the other was to give the scriptures to the court in exchange for titles; The scriptures were sold to foreigners in exchange for money. While I was hesitating, the scriptures were stolen by others."
He Ziran stood up suddenly and said: "I didn't expect that this Magistrate Xu is more sinister than his son. He just wants to buy an official position, but he wants to sell my scriptures to foreigners. This is intolerable!"
Taoist Master Qingwu said: "Mr. He, you must be careful when meeting these villains. They have long been coveted for your scriptures."
"Taoist Priest Qingwu, how did you know that the scriptures were in the hands of Magistrate Xu? And why did Xu Huaiyi ask you for the scriptures?"
"Mr. He, some time ago, Junior Brother Qingshu and I went on a wandering trip to see if we could find you."
"I don't know why you are looking for me?"
"Pindao's younger brother, Taoist Master Qingshu, has a nephew who has been fond of Qihuang's art since childhood. After hearing about your deeds, Mr. He, they must worship you as their teacher. They found Wudang Mountain and knelt in front of Qingshu, unable to get up. , until Junior Brother Qingshu agrees to find you."
"There are still children who love Qihuang's skills like this? Then there is hope for the inheritance of our medical skills!" He Ziran sighed.
"So when we were traveling, we also came to see you. One day, we were resting on the roadside and met two officials from the government talking about this book. One said: 'This book is a strange book in the world. How can we naturally travel through it? "Thousands of years ago, the medical classics were brought from the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan." Another said: "So we adults feel like we have found a treasure, and we plan to give it to the imperial court to be promoted to an official position."
Taoist priest Qingshu interrupted: "Brother, the official also said that Magistrate Xu might sell the scriptures to foreigners, and he could get countless gold and silver treasures."
Taoist Master Qingwu said: "Yes, that person did say that. Mr. He, you said that if such an important scripture fell into the hands of foreigners, it would be a loss to us Chinese descendants. Right?"
He Ziran said: "I would rather destroy it than fall into the hands of foreigners!"
Taoist Master Qingwu continued: "My junior brother suggested that we go and get the scriptures and give them to you, so that his nephew can become a disciple of you." I thought, this is a good suggestion. I would like to give you a petition. I don’t attach much importance to it, what I value is that such a good classic cannot be left aside.”
He Ziran said: "The Taoist priest is right. What happened next? Why did they blame you again?"
"Pindao and his junior brother have always been ashamed of being thieves. But for the sake of justice, we also risked our lives. That night, my junior brother and I came to the study room of Magistrate Xu and saw Magistrate Xu burning the midnight oil to read. Pindao was very surprised. , This corrupt official actually studies very hard? We waited for a long time, but this dog official still had no intention of going to sleep. My junior brother was about to fall asleep next to me. "
"Taoist Priest, what happened next? Did you enter his study?" He Ziran asked.
"At midnight, Magistrate Xu finally yawned, blew out the lamp, walked out of the study, and went to bed."
"Then you can succeed!"
"After we waited for him to leave, we opened the window and looked for it on the bookshelf. My junior brother's book had been burned, but we couldn't find this book."
"Did Magistrate Xu actually arrange a scam?"
"Actually, that's not the case. We were so anxious that we forgot about the book that Magistrate Xu had just read!"
"So Magistrate Xu was reading "The Art of Qihuang" just now? Can he understand it?" He Ziran couldn't help but wonder.
"Junior Brother said, Senior Brother, see if the book he just read is right!"
"I took out the fire seal, lit Xu Zhifu's oil lamp, and saw a bamboo stick spread out on his desk. I saw the first piece of bamboo stick, and sure enough, there were four words "Qi Huang Zhi Shu" on it. "
