Only then did Zhitong realize that he had met an expert, and a cold sweat immediately broke out on his back. He was experienced in facing the enemy, and since he knew that the opponent's internal strength was stronger than his own, the stick could not be drawn out no matter what, he simply gave up and threw the stick and rushed towards Jiang Shuo. , this move is not found in the Shaolin Thirty-six Bodhidharma Sticks, but it is indeed a trump card for turning defeat into victory. Only disciples who are skilled in stick skills and the elders of the Bodhidharma Hall will teach this trick.
Zhitong suddenly threw his stick and rushed forward, avoiding the tip of the stick. Naturally, his opponent could not use the tip of the stick to poke him. When he moved forward, he tucked the stick under his arm. The most powerful moves in the stick technique were swinging and smashing. Unable to use it, it seems that the weapon is left to the opponent. In fact, the opponent has taken the stick but it is useless and has become a burden. If the same disciples in the Shaolin Temple were trying to fight, then they should also throw away the stick at this moment, and the two will compete in fist and kick skills.
Zhitong is a disciple of the Bodhidharma Hall. In addition to being outstanding in the Bodhidharma Stick Technique, he also has a set of Bodhidharma Palm Techniques. He is also regarded as the leader among the younger generation of Shaolin. He slapped Jiang Shuo with the sound of wind and thunder with both palms. He used this exact trick. Bodhidharma Palm Technique.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuo didn't throw the stick as he wanted to do, but turned around and walked away, still holding the long stick in his hand. Jiang Shuo's movement through the stars was so fast that Zhitong felt that the long stick was empty under his arm. Having been pulled out by Jiang Shuo, Jiang Shuo suddenly turned his wrist and pointed the tip of the stick at the Jimen point on Zhitong's thigh. It was quite similar to the move Zhitong had just used to drag the stick at Xiao Dayou.
Zhitong was really amazing. He shouted loudly, jumped up on the ground, and barely avoided the poke. Jiang Shuo turned around, raised the tip of his stick, and poked his Zhangmen point. Zhitong was unable to avoid it in the air. , and had no choice but to slap the stick with his palm, trying to deflect the stick.
However, Zhitong changed his moves quickly, and Jiang Shuo struck faster. With a flick of his wrist, the long stick was not as flexible as Zhitong in his hand, but it slipped upward to avoid Zhitong's palm, and stabbed Zhitong's Qimen with a "pop" sound. He secretly used magic skills to press the acupoint, and a sticky force was generated on the stick, and it fell back to the ground with Zhitong.
Jiang Shuo's three moves are exactly the same as Zhitong's moves, except that Zhitong points to Qimen and hits Zhangmen, while Jiang Shuo points to Zhangmen and hits Qimen, and as expected, his stick has internal energy and strength. Everywhere, the Zhitong acupuncture points were immediately closed, and the pestle remained motionless.
Jiang Shuo defeated Zhitong with three moves. Compared with Fang Caitong's victory over Xiao Dayou, Jiang Shuo was more clean and neat. Xiao Dayou was greatly relieved and took the lead in applauding. The heroes of Jianghu League and Caogang also did not hesitate to cheer.
Seeing this, Monk Yu said angrily: "What a little thief, he secretly learned our Shaolin Kung Fu!"
Jiang Shuo said hurriedly: "I didn't learn it secretly, I just saw that Master Zhitong's stick technique was exquisite, so I unknowingly used the long stick in my hand."
Zhitong Zhangmen's acupuncture point was sealed, and his energy and blood were blocked and he could not move, but he could still speak. He sneered: "The little thief just learned some evil skills from the old thief at a young age, and he still used the same method as me. You are using this trick to humiliate me. It is really abominable. If you want to kill me, then kill me. I, a monk in Shaolin Temple, are not afraid of death!"
Zhitong really misunderstood Jiang Shuo. Jiang Shuo had never seen anyone use a stick. Apart from the few moves Zhitong used today, he couldn't do any more moves. And his martial arts understanding was extremely strong. When facing the enemy, he naturally used the tricks he had just seen, but he did not expect that it aroused the anger of the Shaolin monks. He hurriedly removed his stick and stepped forward to relieve Zhitong's acupoints. He then handed the long stick and said, "Master Zhitong, I really didn't mean it. Please forgive me for the humiliation and offensiveness."
Zhitong only said that Jiang Shuo was pretending to return the long stick to him. If he reached out to take it but was humiliated by him, he would not take the stick. He said bitterly to the group of heroes: "Okay, since you want to enter the temple, there is no need to do it secretly. I will take it with you." You can go ahead, Zhitong is just an unknown person in the Shaolin Temple, but don’t think that if you defeat me, you can win the first place in each academy."
Xiao Dayou stared with big eyes and pointed his halberd at the wisdom passage: "Hey... Bald thief, where do you mean this? Who wants to enter your Shaolin Temple?"
Dugu Xiang also said: "Exactly, what fun is there in the monk temple? I heard that if you see a monk or nun, you will lose in a bet, so I don't want to go."
She learned this slang from the people when she was playing money with the sergeants in Penglai Water City during the Chinese New Year. However, Ge Ruliang knew that the Shaolin Temple was a master of martial arts and should not be insulted. He angrily said: "Young girl is talking nonsense! Where did you learn such vulgar language?" Yes! It’s becoming more and more undisciplined!” As he raised his hand to hit her, Dugu Xiang hurriedly hid behind Mrs. A Chu and begged Ge Ruliang, “My daughter doesn’t dare anymore, please spare her life.”
Zhitong did not bother with them, saying: "Pretend to be crazy...you guys
If you want to enter the temple, come with me. After saying that, he turned around and left with the monks.
Xiao Dayou wanted to scold him again, but Lu Yuxuan held him back and said to Jiang Shuo: "Young Master, what did this monk just say? I'm afraid some big enemy came to Shaolin Temple today. They regard us as being the same as that enemy." We’ve been on the road all the way, so for the current plan, I’d better follow him into the temple first, and I’ll be able to explain it clearly when I meet the abbot.”
Jiang Shuo said: "Okay, then let's go into the temple and have a look. If there are really evil people breaking into the temple, we will help Shaolin and drive them away together!"
He deliberately said it loudly, but Zhitong couldn't help shaking his head and snoring in front of him, obviously not believing his words. Jiang Shuo still had a long stick in his hand. He wanted to give it back to Zhitong but he didn't want it. It seemed inappropriate to throw it away. Awkward.
Hun Weiming walked up and took the long stick and said, "Young master, look at it." Then he pointed the stick at Zhitong and threw it at him, shouting: "Bald thief, be careful of your head blossoming!"
Zhitong let out a long laugh, jumped up on the ground and grabbed the stick without looking back. Sure enough, Hun Weiming understood people's hearts and knew that if he returned the stick respectfully, Zhitong would be suspicious and unwilling to accept it. It would be better to use words to encourage him. But in this way, the antagonistic relationship between the people and the Shaolin monks could not be bridged for a while.
The group of heroes said that Shaolin should not be insulted lightly, but they were not afraid of offending Shaolin. They all said in their hearts: Today it was you, the Shaolin monk, who came up first and insulted you unreasonably, and also took action first. Young Master Jiang only gave me a light punishment, but there was nothing wrong. Is it possible that the abbot and elders of Shaolin Temple are so unreasonable?
Zhitong led everyone down the mountainside. It turned out that there was another wide corridor in Shaolin Temple leading to the mountain gate. Lu Yuxuan originally wanted to take the mountain path to Songyang Temple, but took the wrong way, so everyone accidentally avoided the corridor and arrived. Halfway up the mountain, no wonder the Shaolin monks thought they were trying to sneak into the temple.
I bumped into Shaolin stick monks several times along the way, but when I saw Zhitong leading the way, I didn't say anything to stop them, I just raised my palms and saluted.
When we arrived at the mountain gate, there were many stick monks guarding us. A middle-aged monk led by him said to Zhitong: "Zhitong, why did you come down the mountain? These people are..."
Before Zhitong could speak, Lu Yuxuan said first, "Master Zhitong has misunderstood us. We are definitely not enemies of Shaolin."
Zhitong said, "Senior Brother Zhiguang, what these people say is not entirely true, but their ideas are very hard. I can't deal with them, so I have to lead them here first."
Zhiguang nodded and said: "Okay." As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at the stick monks on the left and right. The stick monks understood and moved quietly. Zhiguang suddenly shouted: "Set up the formation!" The stick monks immediately held long sticks and surrounded them. They formed a circle and surrounded the heroes in the center of Gai.
The monks obviously often set up this formation. Zhiguang and Zhitong each led one, and the remaining monks stood in a circle according to their directions. The monks were far apart, presumably to facilitate the use of the long stick. It looked loose, but in fact it was very complicated. .
It turned out that Zhitong had no intention of taking them into the temple, but he thought that the stick monks under him could not win, so he led everyone to the mountain gate, and formed an Arhat subduing demon formation with Zhiguang in order to surround the heroes.
This time, it was Lu Jiong who got angry first. He was an upright person, and he felt very rude when he saw the Shaolin monks being so unreasonable. He was a disciple of Taoism, and unlike Hun Weiming and Nan Jiyun who had a close relationship with Shaolin, he immediately responded to Shaolin. Jiang Shuo said: "Young Master, let me teach you the Shaolin formations!"
Jiang Shuo said: "Master Lu, be careful not to hurt the monk."
Lu Jiong snorted and said, "Of course!" As he spoke, he attacked Zhiguang. Seeing that all the monks were holding sticks in their hands, he was not polite and drew out his long sword to stab him.
Zhiguang saw him coming, but did not take the move, and took a step back. Lu Jiong had seen Zhitong's counterattack technique of dragging a stick, so he immediately became more careful and did not dare to rush forward. However, the monks on both sides swung their long sticks and struck him at them. It seems that the stick has no edge, but if it is hit by the thunder blow of the monks, it will break the bones and muscles, and the power is no less than that of swords and guns.
Lu Jiong's kung fu was much better than Xiao Dayou's. He had mastered the Xuanmen Golden Goose Kung Fu. When he saw the monks on both sides coming at him with their sticks, his long sword vibrated and split into two. Swinging both sides, it turned out that his long sword was a double-pronged sword that could be separated or closed.
The two swords passed by, and the internal force vibrated, just like the wings of a golden goose. The monks surrounding him felt that their breath was stagnant. The sticks they swung into the air could not hit them, and they were forced to retreat by the sword energy.
Zhiguang shouted: "What a handsome kung fu!" He waved his stick and stepped forward.
Lu Jiong did not answer, but combined his two swords into one and stabbed Zhiguang. Zhiguang used the long stick as a spear to stab him. The tip of the stick collided with the tip of the long sword. Even though Lu Jiong's long sword was sharp, it was impossible to cut him open vertically. The long stick only penetrated the tip of the stick a little. At this time, another group of stick monks on both sides passed through the retreating stick monks and swung their sticks towards Lu Jiong.
Lu Jiong didn't have Jiang Shuo's ability to transmit his internal energy through the entire weapon. He couldn't move forward with his long sword. He could only shake the long sword, take off the tip of Zhiguang's stick, take a step back, and use the move of flying geese from the north to the south. He feinted to the left but pounced to the right. Unexpectedly, the stick monks on both sides did not take the move and dragged their sticks away in unison. Lu Jiong's move of alternating between false and real was completely useless. Zhiguang went straight into the palace and chased after him. Lu Jiong hit him with a blow.
The group of heroes were surrounded by stick monks. If Lu Jiong retreated further, he would have hit Lu Yuxuan behind him. He could only jump to the side to avoid the blow. Zhiguang flew away with his stick and hit the ground hard, immediately knocking him down. The bluestone bricks on the ground were smashed to pieces, and another monk with a stick came in from the other side like he was arranging flowers and struck with his stick. Lu Jiong swung his sword to chop, and these monks immediately retreated, but another group of monks came with their stick and hit them.
Lu Jiong's moves were old and he didn't have time to change them, so he had to retreat and walk around the group of heroes. The monks also turned around and divided into two teams, inside and outside. One team chased Lu Jiong and moved in the same direction, while the other team turned in the opposite direction. . When Lu Jiong saw the formation turning in a circle, he didn't know where to apply his force. He was stunned for a moment. The monks in the two circles suddenly stood still and swung their sticks together to hit him.
Lu Jiong was afraid that if they did not attack, there would be a flaw if they attacked, so he advanced instead of retreating, penetrated forward into the stick formation, and stabbed the two monks in two directions with his sword. The two monks immediately moved away, and in the gap they made, two monks swung their sticks horizontally. One of them struck three lines, and the other hit three lines. Lu Jiong divided his long sword, and drew a circle each on the upper left and right. Arc, and at the same time, his body flew up, and with a move of "Yan Shadow Split Flying", he avoided the two sticks and attacked the stick monks on both sides separately.
