I don’t know if the relationship between Cheng Baiqiu and Shao Xi can be regarded as a falling flower and a ruthless relationship?
Perhaps Cheng Baiqiu grew up on Yingyue Island and had never been exposed to young men, nor had he left Yingyue Island to see the colorful world outside, so he was so easily moved.
But this is not a strange thing. In modern terms, the social contact area is relatively narrow, and the options are relatively small, not to mention that Shao Xi is so good.
It's a pity that for Cheng Baiqiu, all this has always been just a mirror, a dream.
The two of them walked in the valley and chatted among the vanilla bushes for an unknown amount of time. Old Wu finally ran back while wiping his tears and snot from his nose. It seemed that he had cried enough at once.
Shao Xi understood Lao Wu's mood at the moment and stopped teasing him like before, so they planned to continue on their way to Luoxing River.
He pulled Wu Qiu'er, who was drooling at the large beehive on the tree, to continue on his way, otherwise this guy would probably be planning to poke the huge hornet's nest.
Due to the delay on the road, it was almost dusk when the few people arrived at the Luoxing River. Wangshu Pavilion built several simple residences nearby. There was a pavilion called Xiyue Pavilion outside the residence.
According to Cheng Baiqiu, the disciples of Wangshu Pavilion often go to the Luoxing River to practice their mental skills. Cheng Baiqiu himself often comes here to practice, so he built a residence here. In the next month, Shao Xi A few people were arranged to live here, so as not to waste time running around every day, Wu Qiu'er could concentrate on practicing the hammer technique.
When Cheng Baiqiu brought a few people to the Luoxing River, Shao Xi realized that the scenery here was excellent.
There is a waterfall hanging on the upper reaches of the river. The water is flowing down, the water is splashing, and the mist is lingering. It is a sight like flowing clouds and waterfalls!
The water from the waterfall continues to flow downstream along the river, forming several waterfalls flowing down the mountain. Although the river is fast-flowing, it is not particularly deep. It is so clear that you can see the colorful stones at the bottom of the river, and there are large and small stones among them. fish are playing in the water.
The river bank is lined with green trees and flocks of birds on both sides, making it full of life.
The stone wall that Cheng Baiqiu mentioned was under the cliff near the waterfall. When Shao Xi and others saw the stone wall, they secretly groaned in their hearts.
I saw that the stone wall was already covered with moss, a thick layer of green. I could only vaguely see the words and graphics on the stone wall, but they were really blurry and difficult to distinguish. If you want to see the contents on the stone wall clearly, you must first Clean the moss off the stone walls.
Looking at this huge stone wall, Shao Xi and Lao Wu couldn't help but have a headache, but Wu Qiu'er was very excited at this time. He rushed to the stone wall and raised two palms as big as cattail fans to wipe them vigorously on the stone wall. , a large area was wiped out in just a moment.
This made Shao Xi happy all of a sudden. These things that were originally difficult to clean could be easily handled by Wu Qiu'er. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about this anymore.
Wu Qiu'er lay on the stone wall and wiped the moss piece by piece, while Shao Xi and Lao Wu followed Cheng Baiqiu to carefully look at the words and graphics on the stone wall.
Judging from the fonts of the text and the form of the graphics, I am afraid that the person who left behind this set of hammering techniques was a certain senior from a hundred years ago. Although the text and graphics are very blurry, I can still barely make them out, but it will not affect my practice. .
So Shao Xi asked Lao Wu to take out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone he carried with him, and began to copy and copy the formulas and moves of this set of hammer techniques according to the records on the stone wall. Cheng Baiqiu stood aside and pointed out Shao Xi's mistakes at any time. at.
After such tossing and turning, the sky turned dark, and the moss on the entire stone wall had been cleared away by Wu Qiu'er. Shao Xi had also copied a lot of the above hammering techniques, because the sky was too dark, and almost all the moss on the stone wall was gone. People then return to their residences to rest and wait until tomorrow to continue.
Lao Wu and Wu Qiu'er caught some fish in the river, and picked some wild fruits nearby. After a few people filled their stomachs, Lao Wu took Wu Qiu'er and ran over with the copied hammering moves and formulas. While practicing, Shao Xi and Cheng Baiqiu sat in the Xiyue Pavilion chatting, and the conversation went into the night unknowingly.
"Miss Cheng, I heard that Wangshu Pavilion was founded nearly a hundred years ago, so I guess I have a profound knowledge of martial arts. Ten years ago, Old Wu stole Master's weapons and swordsmanship secret books, but he only dug them out from the grave, that is, It is said that the martial arts that the girl has practiced over the years is not the Qiu Shui Sword Technique created by the respected master. It seems that the loss of the secret book has not had any fundamental impact on the martial arts practice of Wangshu Pavilion on Yingyue Island. Then the girl's current martial arts realm should have reached Is it the 'Qi Transformation Realm'? As far as I know, if a famous martial arts sect wants to truly gain a foothold in the martial arts, if the leader's martial arts fails to reach the 'Qi Transformation Realm', he will be ridiculed by his fellow martial artists, and his status in the martial arts will also be affected. There has been a decline, and Wangshu Pavilion's reputation in the martial arts world has been unshakable over the years. I guess it has something to do with the girl's current martial arts level, right?"
Shao Xi recalled that he saw the Tongshan Five Ghosts in Wulong Mountain laughing at the Taichang Sect for missing the "Taichang Heart Sutra". After the leader Sun was gone, he was only at the peak of the sixth level. The Taichang Sect was already the first martial arts sect in vain, and now he still feels that Some self-blame.
If Lao Wu hadn't stolen someone else's "Taichang Heart Sutra", Sun might have cultivated to the "Qi Transformation Realm" long ago. It can be seen how much impact the loss of the sect's martial arts secrets will have on a martial arts sect?
However, Wangshu Pavilion did not seem to be affected by this matter. Therefore, according to Shao Xi's guess, Cheng Baiqiu, as the master of Wangshu Pavilion, must have reached the "Qi Transformation Realm". Otherwise, Shen Linyue had passed away for many years, and Wangshu Pavilion's martial arts status How could it not be affected at all?
After hearing Shao Xi's question, Cheng Baiqiu still smiled lightly and nodded to confirm Shao Xi's idea, but the explanation he gave was slightly different.
"I have indeed advanced to the 'Qi Transformation Realm', but it was only a month ago. I stopped at the sixth level for three years. As for you saying that Wangshu Pavilion's martial arts status has not been affected in any way in the past ten years? It's not because of me, it's just because there were two uncles who were still alive before. As the pavilion master, I naturally had a much easier time. However, these two uncles also passed away two years ago. It was just because Yingyue Island was isolated overseas. , the news is relatively unavailable, and many people don’t know that there are no masters of the ‘Qi Transformation Realm’ in Wangshu Pavilion in the past two years. Fortunately, after working hard in the past two years, I finally advanced to the ‘Qi Transformation Realm’, which can be regarded as Fortunately, you have lived up to your fate! I wonder what state Mr. Shao has reached now?"
Shao Xi was secretly shocked when he heard that Cheng Baiqiu had really advanced to the "Qi Transformation Realm"!
Originally it was just a casual guess, but I didn't expect it to be true.
Shao Xi has always felt that his martial arts talent is already very high. Cheng Baiqiu looks about the same age as him, but it is unbelievable to think that his martial arts level is far beyond his own.
As everyone knows, Cheng Baiqiu has been carefully taught by Shen Linyue in martial arts since the day he could walk. He started practicing martial arts much earlier than Shao Xi, who started practicing martial arts at the age of seven. In addition, he is six years older than Shao Xi. In other words, he has practiced for six more years than Shao Xi. In addition, his martial arts talent is no worse than Shao Xi's. Even if he does not surpass Shao Xi, it is natural that his current level can be equal to Shao Xi's.
"I see that the girl is about the same age as me, but I didn't expect that she actually entered the 'Qi Transformation Realm'. It's really amazing! Even after Lao Wu obtained the "Taichang Heart Sutra", he practiced hard for ten years, and later in Wulongshan experienced an unexpected encounter and accidentally ate the Nine Dragon Holding Pillar. Now he is only at the peak of the sixth level. Breaking through the seventh level and entering the 'Qi Transformation Realm' is still far away. I think that such an advancement in cultivation has surpassed 99% of the people in this world. Man, I didn’t expect that the girl actually left me far behind. I really admire you. However, I am very curious about your secret practice. Is there any secret method that can quickly improve the level of martial arts? Or does the girl have the same skills as me? Is it because of unexpected encounters that the martial arts realm has advanced so quickly?"
Cheng Baiqiu felt embarrassed for a moment when Shao Xi asked her. She knew very well that she had practiced martial arts earlier than Shao Xi and had practiced martial arts for more years than Shao Xi. But how could a woman have the nerve to say that she was six years old?
It was a happy thing for Cheng Baiqiu that Shao Xi thought that the two were of the same age, but now that they were talking about martial arts training, if he told the other person that he had practiced for more than ten years more than him, wouldn't he have exposed his own secrets? age?
Now Shao Xi is still calling him girl, open and shut, by then he will not be able to call himself sister or sister every day? How awkward must that be, and how uncomfortable must it feel?
So Cheng Baiqiu decided to bypass the sensitive topic of age and start talking elsewhere.
"I have never left Yingyue Island since I was a child. How could I have any adventures? But if we talk about the secret method of cultivation, it is not really a secret method. There are only two water pools just above this waterfall. It is called Xingyuetan. One place is the Star Pool and the other is the Moon Pool. The water quality is unique and contains the unknown energy of heaven and earth. When the whole person is immersed in the water and practices, it has the magical effect of improving the internal strength. The Star Pool helps to improve the meridians. , and the Moon Pool is conducive to the cultivation and improvement of the Qi Sea. I have practiced alternately in these two pools since I was a child. Therefore, the meridians and Qi Sea improve much faster than ordinary people. The most qualified disciples in the pavilion passed by me. With your permission, I will come here regularly to practice to improve my internal strength. Maybe it is because of this that my martial arts progress will be faster than yours, right?"
Having said this, Shao Xi understood why a temporary residence was built near the Luoxing River. It was originally provided for the disciples in Wangshu Pavilion to live temporarily while practicing here. This Yingyue Island is indeed the land of the Immortal Mansion. No wonder Wangshu Pavilion was originally founded here. It seems to be precisely because of the many unique features of this island.
This is a big surprise for Shao Xi. The biggest bottleneck that he cannot break through now that he is at the peak of the sixth level is that his meridians have not yet broken through to the seventh star position. As long as his meridians break through, he can break through to the seventh level in the shortest time. Advance to the "Qi Transformation Realm".
Isn't the Xingyue Lake on this island the perfect place to help one's meridians break through?
