"The little girl is neither old nor young. Well, since I know that Tianji is fine, there is no need to rush to find him. Let me help you get rid of the poison in your body first."
Chen Mobai felt relieved when he learned that there was help over there and said, "Thank you, Senior Tan."
The two of them were exorcising the poison, and Ding Diandian could only watch boredly, thinking to himself: This old man is actually the head of the Star Sword Sect. The feeling at the moment when I fought with him just now seemed familiar, like being beaten by the master. During the lesson, I had the feeling that no matter how much I tossed and turned, I could not escape from the opponent's grasp. I was worthy of being a master at the master level...
"Dot."
Chen Mobai interrupted Ding Diandian's thoughts.
"Huh? Cheapskate, is this good?"
"Well, Senior Tan said that I was not poisoned for a long time and it is easy to remove it. It's just because I was poisoned by turbid poison, so I need to take a short rest and it's not suitable to use my true energy."
"Wow! The old man from Star Sword Sect..."
"Um?"
"Hehe, Senior Tan really deserves to be a master."
"The little girl is really unbecoming." Ding Diandian is naughty by nature, so Tan Songhe didn't care too much, and said to Chen Mobai: "Originally, I was quite interested in the little girl's body skills, but after exorcising the poison for you, now I am more interested in you. The boy is more curious.”
Chen Mobai was puzzled: "I wonder what the senior is referring to?"
"The true energy in the kid's body feels like it's ready to go out, and it's also faintly suppressing the poison. However, when I was exorcising the poison for you, I didn't feel any signs of your true energy. Usually, the true energy doesn't show any signs. The most you can do is reach the Qi Traveling Realm, but how can the Qi Traveling Realm suppress the poison of the Life Form Realm?"
"Ready to go? What do you mean?" Ding Dian did not understand what Tan Songhe said.
"It means that the true energy in this kid's body seems to be far higher than his realm."
Tan Songhe thought for a moment and then said: "I wonder if you would like to show off your martial arts skills? Don't use your true energy."
"Can."
After Chen Mobai finished speaking, he lifted up the iron rod and performed a set of martial arts. Tan Songhe frowned as he watched.
Before the set was finished, Tan Songhe interrupted: "You promised so happily, why did you deliberately hide it?"
Chen Mobai replied slightly innocently: "Senior, this is the martial arts I practice. In addition, I also know one move, but it may be difficult to use it in my current state."
"It doesn't matter, walking around the world, it's understandable to hide everything."
"The junior has nothing to hide, not to mention that the senior has detoxified me first, so how can I deceive the senior? My grandfather said that when practicing martial arts, you should not be trapped by the moves. There are countless martial arts in the world, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Fighting with others It's just a matter of trying to see who is better."
Tan Songhe smiled slightly and said: "As you said, aren't the moves of each sect all fake and superficial?"
"That's not what he means. What he means is that the ultimate path of martial arts in the world is unified. If you want to explore a higher peak of martial arts, you should not be trapped in one move or another. The so-called exquisite martial arts techniques only allow people to move forward on the path of martial arts. It’s just faster to walk up.”
"If that's the case, then why are your moves so unorganized? Does the martial arts you just performed have a name?"
"Grandpa said it's called Baijia Gong. The process of practicing martial arts is nothing more than fighting with grandpa every day. He taught me how to deal with each of his moves, from being beaten without the ability to fight back to gradually being able to live with him for more than ten or several years. Ten hands.”
The more Chen Mobai said, the more curious Tan Songhe became. He had never heard of anyone teaching martial arts like this. He couldn't help but murmur something while pinching his hands to make calculations, sometimes frowning slightly, sometimes showing surprise.
After a while, he looked at Chen Mobai and said, "Boy, how about you and I try our best? We still don't use true energy, just moves."
"Ah? When a master like you fights with a stingy guy, you are clearly bullying the smaller one!" Ding Diandian complained dissatisfiedly.
Tan Songhe smiled and said: "Don't worry, little girl. I'm just curious about the boy's martial arts. And since we don't use Qi, we won't really hurt him."
Chen Mobai responded generously: "Okay, please give me some advice, senior."
After saying that, Tan Songhe came over with a test palm, and Chen Mobai responded with the same palm. Although neither party activated their true energy, Tan Songhe's own strength was not small, and he still forced Chen Mobai to take a few steps back.
"Boy, don't worry, you can use the weapon."
"Okay, senior, I'm offended."
With a palm strike, Chen Mobai immediately understood that in terms of strength alone, he and the opponent were not at the same level, so he immediately took out the iron rod to deal with it. Tan Songhe slightly increased his strength this time, using his fingers as swords to strike quickly. Chen Mobai raised the iron rod to parry. Unexpectedly, the opponent changed his move and clamped the iron rod between his fingers, and then stabbed himself with the sword. Chen Mobai did not hesitate to let go of the iron rod and dodge backwards, and kicked the iron rod in the direction of the opponent. At the end, he kicked it away from Tan Songhe's hand. After he pulled away, the iron rod fell into his hand again. Tan Songhe just showed some surprise, but saw that Chen Mobai didn't hesitate at all. He leaned forward and turned from defense to offense, taking the initiative to fight back.
Tan Songhe also became interested, his hands turned into swords, and he observed Chen Mobai while making moves.
As the two of them went back and forth, Tan Songhe became more and more surprised the longer the fight lasted. Just now, this kid's martial arts, which at first glance seemed to be unorganized, turned out to be so sophisticated once he fought with others. At the same time, I also felt strange. I kept changing my moves between the fights, and even left some backup moves in the middle. Unexpectedly, this kid was able to resolve the situation without any danger. To say it was because of his amazing insight, it was better to say that he knew about himself. His moves have been predicted. The problem is, if this young man is not related to the Star Sword Sect, how can he deal with it so easily, unless... he is really familiar with the martial arts moves of various sects.
After dozens of moves, Tan Songhe retracted his hand with some hesitation, and said with a smile: "This is very interesting, boy. Can you tell me your grandfather's name?"
"My grandfather?"
"That's right, I can't tell from you that you belong to any martial arts school, but you have the shadow of a master in one. I guess your grandfather must be an expert, maybe I don't know him."
"Senior Tan, please forgive me. It's not because I don't want to tell you, but I don't know my grandfather's name either."
"You don't know? What's the point?"
"Although I have grown up with my grandpa, it seems that I have never asked my grandpa's name, and he has never told me."
"What about your parents?"
"I was raised by my grandfather..."
Tan Songhe saw the change in Chen Mobai's expression, and just sighed, then changed the subject and said: "Life is like this, everyone has his destiny, there is no need to be sad, kid. But your foundation is very good... very good, and your martial arts foundation is even better You are no ordinary disciple of the sect, and your grandpa is no ordinary person. I think your character is pretty good. I wonder if you would like to join our Star Sword Sect?"
Tan Songhe's sudden question caught Chen Mobai off guard, and he declined politely: "It's an honor for me to be appreciated by my seniors, but my grandfather won't let me join any sect."
"Why is this?"
"Grandpa didn't say anything, he just told me not to join any sect."
"This...well, with your grandfather's magical powers, you really don't need to join any sect to practice martial arts. In that case, how many days would you like to be taught by me?"
Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment and said: "It's a good thing to get guidance from seniors, but Brother Murong and I have an appointment to meet in Beiguhou."
"It won't take long."
"All right."
Tan Songhe smiled contentedly.
Tan Songhe hadn't finished speaking here, but Ding Diandian stopped and said hurriedly: "Hey, no, no, no, you are here to teach martial arts, what should I do! Besides, why should you teach a stingy guy but not me!"
"Dian Dian, don't you like practicing martial arts?"
"Hmph! If you don't love, you don't love. If you don't teach, you don't teach. I don't have to like to learn, but why should I teach you but not me?"
Tan Songhe chuckled and said: "You little girl doesn't know any martial arts, how can I teach you. And I didn't say that I wanted to teach him the martial arts of our Star Sword Sect. It's just that the boy liked me so much that I wanted to give him some advice. , I also hope that the boy can keep his righteous thoughts in his heart and not go astray in the future."
"You should remember the teachings of your predecessors."
Ding Diandian hugged his hands unconvinced and said with a pout, "Hey, you're so verbose, you want to teach me but you don't want to learn yet, your Xingjian Sect's martial arts are far inferior to ours from Liangfeng Mountain. "
Tan Songhe was shocked when he heard this and said, "Are you from Liangfeng Mountain?"
"Hmph, that's right! How about it, not worse than you, right?"
"Who are Meng Suhe and Xia Xingyan?"
"They are my first master and second master."
The proud look on Ding Diandian's face didn't look like a lie. Tan Songhe pondered for a moment and said, "Although Meng Xia and Meng Xia have left the mountain gate and are not interested in worldly affairs, there is still something they should know."
"What's the matter? When you hear my master's name, you won't dare to underestimate me."
"You little girl, do you know that your two masters are from the Suyi Sect?"
"Of course I do!"
"Then did you know that the leader of the Suyi Sect was killed a few days ago?"
"Really or not? I heard my master say that the current leader of the Suyi Sect is their former senior sister. Even if her cultivation level is not as good as my master's, she is still not bad. How could she be killed?"
Although Chen Mobai didn't know much about the Suyi Sect, he couldn't help but ask: "Senior, what on earth is going on?"
Tan Songhe said solemnly: "There are two reasons why I came to northern Sichuan this time. One is to learn that Tianji came to help because he had trouble with the Yishen Sect here, and the other is because the head of the Suyi Sect and the Tianyun Sect A pavilion master and two guardian elders of the Chijin Sect were killed, and the clues all point to northern Sichuan, so we need to come here to investigate."
This time it was Ding Diandian who said in surprise: "People from three of the eight major sects in southern Sichuan were killed, and they were all masters of the mountain sect!"
"So the impact of this matter is not trivial. Little girl, although Meng Xia has left the Suyi Sect and lives deep in the mountains, they may not know about it. Even though you are from Liangfeng Mountain, I still inform your two masters about this matter. Just say it."
The little bit of shock still lingered, and he was stunned for a moment before replying: "You should really tell the first master and the second master, then, I will prepare to go back to Liangfeng Mountain right now."
"Diandian..."
Chen Mobai called Ding Diandian a little worried.
"Stingy guy, it seems we have to say goodbye first. After I tell Master what happened, I will find an opportunity to sneak out and play with you. You are stupid and stupid. Be more careful when traveling on your own and don't always cause trouble."
"...Okay, please pay attention to your own safety."
Chen Mobai said in his heart that he was originally worried about her being alone, but instead she warned me.
Although Ding Diandian was young and usually playful and noisy, she knew the seriousness of what Tan Songhe said, so she did not dare to delay and immediately used her body skills to run towards Liangfeng Mountain.
"It turns out that the little girl's movement skills are from the Mayfly Skill, and they are pretty good." Tan Songhe said while looking at the movement skills that Ding Diandian used when he left.
After Ding Diandian had gone away, Chen Mobai continued to ask: "Senior Tan, are Diandian's two masters also reclusive martial arts masters?"
"You guys met that little girl and you still don't know her identity?"
"I seem to have heard it mentioned some time ago, but I don't know the details."
"Have you ever heard of the saying that the Luan Bird is hidden in Liangfeng Mountain?"
"I've heard of it...could this Luan Bird refer to one of Diandian's masters?"
"Yes, but it does not refer to one person, but two people, so that mountain is called Liangfeng Mountain. Alas, it is a pity that the Suyi Sect, three proud girls of heaven were born in that year, and finally one of them fell into the trap of Jianghu. Love leads to misfortune, and the other two angrily left the Suyi Sect and retired to the mountains and forests. Otherwise, with Meng Wenxia's talent, how could these three people have suffered such a disaster if they were in charge of the Suyi Sect."
"Senior Wen is the heroine Wen Ruoxi?"
"Yes, I also met Miss Wen a few times when I was young. At that time, she already looked like everyone."
"Then the two seniors Meng and Xia you mentioned are not bad at martial arts, right?"
"They were already in the realm of transformation when they left the Suyi Sect. Over the years, although I have never seen these two people again, I have heard a lot of rumors in the world that their realm is no longer what it used to be."
Chen Mobai was puzzled: "According to Diandian, even if the martial arts cultivation of the leader of the Suyi Sect is not as good as that of the two seniors Meng and Xia, he is by no means an ordinary person. How could he die an unexpected death?"
Tan Songhe sighed deeply when he heard this and said: "There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. Masters from the three sects are involved, and judging from the traces left by the murderer, it seems to be the work of the same group of people, so it is very strange."
"Same group of people?"
"Well, judging from the traces, there was more than one person responsible."
"Even masters at the master level..."
"Silly boy, even if they are both in the realm of masters, there are still differences in martial arts cultivation. What's more, the strength of a person's martial arts is not only determined by his cultivation, but also by the quality of the techniques he has learned. There is also mutual restraint between personalities. Take the fire element's true energy as an example. What's important is the majesty and majesty of the element. You have to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum before you even make a move. The fire element's true energy is unparalleled and domineering. When it comes to the water element's true energy, it will To lose first, the true energy of the water element is mainly based on the softness and cleverness, using softness to overcome hardness, and using the impermanent energy of cotton wool to resolve the arrogance of fire energy. Even if the cultivation level and skills are between the same, it is difficult to win if the nature is restrained. Easy."
Chen Mobai pondered for a moment and then asked: "Senior, has there ever been a master in the world whose true energy has no characteristics?"
"I heard that there have been people who have reached the state of masters with the formless true energy, but in the end they were still unable to compare with other masters. This is just a legend and cannot be verified. Usually, people who have not developed the form of nature cannot be like you, and their cultivation level can only be as high as Staying in the Qi Traveling Realm. This is also what I am confused about. Your situation is indeed the only one I have seen in my life."
Chen Mobai remained silent.
Tan Songhe continued: "But since you are a little different, you must have a destiny."
"Thank you, senior, for clarifying my doubts. I am not worried about this matter. In addition, although I cannot join your sect, I am lucky to be able to receive some guidance from my senior."
"Since your grandfather won't let you join any sect, will he allow others to teach you martial arts?"
Chen Mobai said with some shame: "It seems that I didn't say no. Brother Murong once said that my martial arts foundation is not bad, but what I lack is the experience of fighting with others."
"Well, what Tianji said is true. That's all, I gave you the advice intentionally, just think of it as fate."
