"Chief Immortal, Chief Immortal, can you teach me martial arts?"
A child of only six or seven years old said childishly.
The old man looked at the children beside him and said with a smile: "Then tell me first, why are you learning martial arts?"
The child rubbed his fat head, thought for a while and said, "You will become more powerful after learning martial arts, and you won't be afraid of being bullied by others!"
"Wouldn't you do the same now?"
"Hmm... um... um! My father taught me not to be very good, but the immortal is more powerful!" the child said coquettishly.
Young children like to run around and play alone, and one time they accidentally ran to the foot of Weishan Mountain in the west of Wushuang City.
The countless high mountains made the child feel timid. When he was about to run back, he was stopped by a monster.
A black monster, resembling a human figure, but without ears, nose or mouth.
A voice came from nowhere: "Hee hee hee hee!"
As soon as the black monster appeared, it ran towards the child, and the child kept running back out of fear.
Although the black monster moves very quickly, it has no eyes and cannot see its surroundings. It often falls down and fails to catch children.
Just when the child was about to go away, the black monster tore its body apart angrily and grew a pair of eyes.
The monster with eyes saw the child and ran to the child in a few seconds.
A pair of black hands pinched the child's neck tightly. The child tried his best but did not cause any harm to the monster. Seeing the child's pain, the monster was extremely excited and the strength in his hands became stronger and stronger.
Just when the child was about to die, an invisible sword energy cut the black monster into two pieces.
The monster struggled desperately, trying to strangle the child before death, but when it saw the figure behind it, it completely lost its energy due to fear.
An old man dressed in gray appeared in front of the child.
From then on, children often came to Weishan to visit the old man, and even pestered him to teach him martial arts.
Young children do not know right and wrong, do not know what is right and wrong in the world, they just simply want to become more powerful.
The old man seemed dissatisfied with the child's answer and never taught him martial arts.
By the time the child turned seven, his answers were different.
"I want to protect myself, and even more, I want to protect my father and mother!"
The moment he spoke, the old man was slightly moved, knowing in his heart that something must have happened to cause the child to change.
"To teach you martial arts, you have to worship me as your teacher, and you have to do something for me!"
The child was extremely happy and nodded hurriedly in agreement.
Then came the apprenticeship ceremony, which was just a simple kowtow three times.
"My child, martial arts is the most difficult path in the world. If you choose this path, you must be prepared."
Looking at the child's determined eyes, the old man began to slowly teach him martial arts.
“There are one hundred and eight acupoints in the human body, which are in charge of the circulation of Qi. There are also twelve main acupoints that work together to control various parts of the human body. By refining and integrating the twelve main acupoints into the whole body, the full potential of the human body can be stimulated. , creation and rebirth, any martial arts comes from the heart and is transformed into reality. Your martial arts will be as strong as your heart is!"
"This is the Twelve Capital Tianmen Formation!"
The child was ignorant and didn't understand what the Twelve Capital Tianmen Formation was. He only listened to the master's words and slowly refined the twelve main acupuncture points in his body.
In the following years, the child relied on firm perseverance to feel the acupuncture points in his body bit by bit.
First, press the Zuowei acupoint and Youwei acupoint under the left and right palms with your fingers. You can feel the beating of the acupoints, and slowly control them, causing chaos, restlessness, collapse, and finally bursting and disappearing into the body.
When the first acupuncture point was opened, the child felt an invisible energy wrapping around him and even in his heart.
Surprise, surprise, the huge pain of the acupoints exploding did not affect the child's determination to continue practicing.
Then there are the Zuoyuan and Right Yuan acupoints on the left and right elbows. Compared with the Zuowei acupoint and Youwei acupoint, they are not as difficult to feel, but the bursting pain is twice as much.
Next are the left and right branch points on the left and right ankles, and the left and right deep points on the thighs.
There are three important acupuncture points on the head, the Tianxuan point on the top of the head, the Moxuan point on the back of the head, and the Yuanxuan point in the middle and upper part of the eyebrows.
It only took the child three years to open all eight acupuncture points on his hands and feet, and then eight years to open three acupuncture points on his head. The difficulty and pain far exceeded the acupuncture points on his hands and feet.
The last acupoint is the heart acupoint, which controls the power of blood vessels throughout the body.
Originally, this acupoint was the core of the "Twelve Capitals Tianmen Formation", which was the eye of the formation. It required a long period of training and polishing before it could be impacted. A slight mistake would lead to a collapse of Qi and blood, leading to violent death. But the child's time is running out, and the pain in just one year has begun to hit his heart.
Different from other acupuncture points, when the acupoints are opened, it does not cause bleeding, but the acupoints are agitated and spit out from the mouth. Each failed impact will cause physical weakness and increase the difficulty and success of the next impact.
There is another huge difficulty in practicing the "Twelve Capital Tianmen Formation", that is, you cannot practice other martial arts at the same time. The acupuncture points that are opened do not allow any Qi and blood to circulate at all. From the moment the first acupoint is opened, the body will be weaker than ordinary people. As more and more acupuncture points are opened, the body will become weaker and weaker. Until the last heart acupoint, the body's functions are basically similar to those of a dying person.
The old man only taught the child how to practice the "Twelve Capitals Tianmen Formation" in the beginning, and told the child some things. After three years, he left and never appeared again.
When parting, the child was reluctant to leave and asked his master when he would be able to see him again. The answer he got was that maybe there would be a time to see him again when he succeeds in the future.
The child's diligent practice has his own purpose, but seeing his teacher invisibly also becomes his motivation.
When the child grows up to be nineteen years old, he can already follow the beating of the heart to find the location of the heart point, which is full of life and death.
He should have gradually mastered the rules of the heart acupoint's smooth blood transfusion in order to explode it and complete the "Twelve Capital Tianmen Formation", but the situation in the court was in turmoil, and there was no time to wait.
At this time, it was already the fourth impact for the child. His weak body had no strength at all. Even walking began to tremble. The strength was not enough. When he felt the heart point in his body, the huge pain immediately disturbed the child. breath.
This child is - Long Yun.
"Failed again!"
"Still haven't found that feeling yet!"
Unlike the previous three times, Long Yun still had the strength to sit on the chair. This time, he spit out twelve mouthfuls of blood and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Si Yemingli hurriedly got out of bed and helped Long Yun up.
"Why on earth are you practicing martial arts again, and you are so injured!"
Anyone could see that Long Yun was in extremely poor condition at this time, almost to the point of running out of gas.
The beauty's arms were as warm as jade. This was the first physical contact between Long Yun and Si Ye Mingli.
"You rest here, I'll call the doctor!"
Si Ye Mingli helped Long Yun to the bed and was about to get up when Long Yun suddenly grabbed him: "No, you can't go out. I can't let anyone know about my martial arts training!"
"But, this..."
"Leave it to fate!"
Then, Long Yun fainted.
Si Yemingli was at a loss and stood there, chanting repeatedly: "Let God do it, let God do it!"
Who is not resigned to fate?
Isn't that how I got married to the Dragon Mansion?
………………
In the Biluo Hall of the imperial palace, Taoist Mao was enjoying fine wine and delicacies, while two attendants outside the hall were whispering.
"Is Taoist Master Mao really the legendary virtual warrior?"
"This can still be false. I was on duty at Wushuang Hall that day and heard it with my own ears!"
"Shouldn't the Xushi's arrival in our palace be decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations to announce it to the world? Why are you so cautious and strictly prohibit external rumors?"
"I don't know. It is said to be Taoist Master Mao's request that outsiders are strictly prohibited from knowing about his arrival!"
"Is there any lie in this?" the guard said cautiously as he glanced into the room.
"Probably not. Even Mr. Lu is not his enemy. How can he cheat?"
"That's weird!"
On the night Taoist Mao entered the court, the palace was sealed and no one was allowed to leave. Except for the Three Thousand Ax Guards, Lu Yu and Yu Deqi, only some guards knew about it, and these guards were sent to the Biluo Palace to serve Taoist Mao.
Before the news spread, some outsiders had no idea that there was a virtual warrior living in the palace.
Of course, concealing information like this has attracted some criticism.
……………………
The weather is unbearably hot and the slightest movement will make you sweat profusely. No one is willing to travel far at this time if it is not necessary, even those who practice martial arts.
Huang Ling was sitting in the sedan chair, filled with resentment and irritation. Few people were so ignorant. She had heard of Long Yu's name many years ago, but most of them were chivalrous and righteous. She didn't expect that after entering the dynasty, she would be so bold. Even Jinghai Even Cihangzhai dared to offend.
What's even more irritating is that the four of his apprentices didn't even win the battle together, and they were kicked back, making themselves embarrassed in front of the pavilion master.
Only by killing Long Yu can the evil spirit in his heart be calmed.
"Bing'er, where are you?"
"Master Qi, we have just passed Tianshan Mountain and are almost at Yumen Mansion!"
Since Han Bing was defeated by Long Yu last time, he has lost all his pride. Not only is his martial arts gradually declining, he even loses the confidence to speak.
Hearing Han Bing's words, Huang Ling didn't know what to do. She had been like this since she came back. Her most beloved apprentice couldn't recover, so she felt extremely uncomfortable as a master.
"We can only kill Long Yu first, and then enlighten him slowly!" Huang Ling sighed in her heart.
Song Ling, who was on the side, felt uncomfortable. She also saw the situation at that time. Long Yu's martial arts was at its peak, so it was understandable that he couldn't beat him. It was just that Han Bing was too proud and looked down on outsiders, which made him feel uncomfortable and depressed. , I am afraid it will be difficult to make further progress in martial arts in the long run.
The four showmen followed behind the sedan, and the ones carrying the sedan were four strong men. Sitting in the sedan was Huang Ling, one of the four elders of Jinghai Cihangzhai, and the group of people walked slowly towards Wushuang City.
……………………
It was already daybreak, Long Yun woke up slowly, his face turned pale, and he tried his best to get up from the bed. In his daze, he saw Si Ye Mingli lying on the table. He had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know how to wake up the person in front of him. .
I was worried and scared all night, and I couldn't sleep peacefully. I woke up at the slightest movement.
Seeing Long Yun sit up, Si Yemingli breathed a sigh of relief. If Long Yun had some shortcomings, not to mention Long Yu's actions, I'm afraid the marriage would be over.
"Are you okay?" Si Yemingli asked carefully.
"It's okay. You can rest. You don't have to go to say hello today. I'll tell my mother."
After saying that, he stood up tremblingly. Si Yemingli wanted to help him, but he never moved. He didn't get up and close the door until Long Yun opened the door and left.
Both of them knew in their hearts the reason for marriage, and there were some things and words that were difficult to talk about.
This situation seems a little more remote than strangers.
