When it was late, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. On the way, Lan Ling'er said to Zhu Yu: "I also want to check out the cliff. I think the place where the poem is carved on the cliff is a little different. Maybe there is something different behind the cliff." It’s a space that someone made.”
"Yes, I think so too. Let's go there early tomorrow and find out what's going on." Zhu Yu replied.
Early the next morning, Zhu Yu heard Lan Ling'er's cry: "Zhu Yu, get up quickly, it's time to go."
"Okay, here we come." Zhu Yu replied.
Zhu Yu called Lan Tian, and Lan Tian said "hmm" and muttered: "You'd better go, I want to sleep for a while longer."
After Lan Tian finished speaking, he turned around and fell asleep again.
Zhu Yu got dressed and opened the door, only to find that the moon had set and the sun had not risen yet. It was still dark, but through the starlight, she could vaguely see Lan Ling'er and Ling Yazi standing at the door with swords on their backs.
"Just the three of us will go, Lan Tian wants to sleep for a while longer." Zhu Yu whispered.
The three of them walked out of the Taoist temple lightly, raised their spirits, and flew towards the mountains behind in the dark.
When I was in Shaolin Temple, Lan Ling'er was in front of me on the way to Bodhidharma Academy during morning classes. I followed her in the dark. Unknowingly, many years passed and everyone became adults. But I always feel that the comfort I had back then is gone.
Yesterday, the six people walked to the cliff, which took more than two hours. Today, the three of them gathered their strength and flew upwards. In less than an hour, they arrived in front of yesterday's cliff.
At this moment, the sun has risen. Although the side of the cliff is facing away from the sun, the rising temperature has caused water drops to drip on the stone wall and the vines and plants clinging to it.
"Since this poem was carved two or three hundred years ago, the soil must have buried a lot of the cliffs that were exposed at that time. Let's dig down first and see what we find."
As soon as Lingyazi expressed his thoughts, Zhu Yu and Lan Ling'er agreed. They said almost in unison: "Yes, let's dig down and take a look."
Lan Ling'er was weak in martial arts and lacked internal strength, so Zhu Yu pulled out the sword from Lan Ling'er, and together with Ling Yazi, dug down the soil under the poem, while Lan Ling'er watched from the side and looked at the newly dug soil. There is something strange about the stone wall.
"Wait a minute, I saw the numbers." Lan Linger shouted as she stared at the stone wall.
Zhu Yu and Ling Yazi stopped their swords and looked carefully. They saw a series of numbers under the word "Guo" that Zuo Ri had dug out, which read the seventh day of July, 1150.
"This year is 13990, so this poem happened to be carved two hundred and fifty years ago." Lingyazi said in surprise.
"Two hundred and fifty years ago, it should be the late Southern Song Dynasty. At that time, wars were frequent in the Central Plains and the people were in dire straits. It was inevitable that heroes would appear." Zhu Yu learned some history from Master Kongkong. He knew about the Song and Yuan dynasties over the past few hundred years. Clear as day.
"Dig further down, and carving words at such a low place means that the place where this person is standing is still further down." Lan Ling'er said.
Zhu Yu and Ling Yazi used their swords to dig hard again, until they dug down to a depth of almost six feet, and finally saw clearly that the carvings were on a single stone wall.
"This stone wall should be movable, but I don't know where the mechanism is." Lingyazi put down his sword and gasped.
Lan Ling'er took Ling Yazi's sword and dug around again. She couldn't find any special protrusions or concavities on the stone wall. She was hesitating when she suddenly discovered that there was something on the smooth stone wall with the carvings and the rough stone wall. There are small gaps. The gaps are so small that you can't even notice them without looking carefully.
"I think this stone wall is basically a door. You can push it open as long as you use force." Lan Ling'er said happily.
"Let me give it a try." When Lingyazi saw the crack in the stone, she was already sure that there was indeed a stone door here, so she stretched out her palms against the stone wall, and with a stroke of luck, she pushed towards the stone wall, but how could she I tried hard, but the imaginary stone door didn't move at all.
"Perhaps this stone gate is too heavy-bearing and has not been opened for two hundred and fifty years, so it is difficult to push it. I will try it with the Tathagata Hercules Palm." Zhu Yu said at the side.
"Senior Brother Zhu Yu, if there are really ancestors buried inside, I'm afraid you will break the stone wall and be disrespectful to them." Lan Ling'er said worriedly.
"Ling'er, it's okay. Master Kongkong and I learned the Tathagata's Powerful Palm. It can not only hit people with force, but also spit out static energy. It will not damage the stone wall." After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he stood in front of the stone wall and moved up With the power of Tathagata Hercules' palms, he gently pressed his palms against the stone wall. When he said "open", a huge force spat out towards the stone wall.
Lingyazi saw that Zhu Yu's palms were pressed against the stone wall, but his feet were diagonally sinking into the soil. He hurriedly said, Brother Zhu Yu, stop quickly. Your strength is indeed very strong, but it has bounced back to your feet. You need to find a few pieces. Just put stones under your feet.
After Zhu Yu tried it, he also found that his feet were too soft, so the three of them found a large flat stone aside, carried it to the stone wall, and leveled it.
Zhu Yu stood on the big stone, used the power of Tathagata Hercules Palm again, and pushed towards the stone wall.
This palm hit the stone wall firmly, and there was only a "crunch" sound. A crack opened in the stone wall. Zhu Yu applied another force, and the stone wall was slowly opened like a door. Behind the stone wall, a huge stone chamber appeared. .
Zhu Yu took the lead, followed closely by Lan Ling'er and Ling Yazi, and the three of them entered the stone chamber together.
The light in the stone room is very good, and the three of them can see everything in the room clearly.
The stone chamber is more than ten feet square. The most eye-catching ones are the five covered sarcophagi on the inside. In the stone chamber, there are also stone beds, tables, stone chairs, and even rusty pots and pans. Obviously, , someone once lived here, and the people who lived here are most likely already contained in sarcophagi.
After checking the stone house, the three of them couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. What they wanted was to find a few martial arts secret books or papers containing information about the owner, but there was no trace of these.
"It seems that we can only check on the stone wall to see if there is any description of the owner of the stone room."
The three of them each lit up the fire seals they had prepared and searched carefully on the stone wall. Finally, Zhu Yu first discovered the writing on a very smooth stone wall.
Zhu Yu raised a fire to illuminate the stone wall, and Lan Ling'er stepped forward and read: "Now I will burn the method of practicing the Palm of Sadness and Ecstasy on this wall. A hundred years from now, my wife and I, if anyone is able to enter this room, please copy the following secret book and pass it on to future generations. , please leave the bones of the two of us and our ancestors intact. Yang Guo and Long Nu thank you."
"It turns out that there is indeed a martial art called Sadness and Ecstasy Palm. Let's rub it out for future study." It turned out that Lan Ling'er had already prepared it. As she said this, she took out a few rubbing papers from her arms and spread them on the On the stone carving, and then using a small stick to roll it up and down on the rubbing paper several times, a piece of sad ecstasy palm was carved.
"Senior Brother Zhu Yu, please keep this secret book and take some time to practice it." Lan Ling'er handed several pieces of paper to Zhu Yu.
"Okay, I'll teach you after I've practiced." Zhu Yu took the paper and put it in his arms.
"I heard that there are many poisonous bacteria in secret rooms or caves that have been closed for too long. If you stay in them for a long time, you will easily get poisoned. Let's leave quickly." Lingyazi urged.
The three of them knelt before the five sarcophagi, stood up, and walked out of the secret room.
It was much easier to close the door of the secret room than to open it. When Zhu Yu pulled the door over, there was still a gap as wide as a fist, and the stone door closed with a "hula" thanks to gravity.
At this moment, the sun was close to the top of the head. Under the warm sunshine, several people felt warm and harmonious, and their spirits were lifted.
Zhu Yu couldn't wait and took out the secret book to check it out. He found that what was written in the secret book was very similar to the general palm training method. He couldn't help but doubt the power of this palm method. When he saw the last sentence, he couldn't help being surprised, but saw that it said: "This palm technique must be practiced when you are frustrated, otherwise it will only destroy your internal strength. Remember, remember.
Master Kongkong has the deepest research on martial arts. It seems that he has to let the master study carefully before proceeding. Otherwise, if he blindly practices on his own, he may really destroy his internal strength.
"This secret book is too strange. Let's tell Master Kongkong about this important discovery first. Maybe only he can understand this secret book."
After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he took Lan Ling'er and Ling Yazi with him, boosted his energy and flew down the mountain.
