[69 Book Bar-www.] At that time, the waning moon was like blood, the wind and clouds were bleak, and the bamboo forest was quiet and empty.

Qiangzi asked Master excitedly, "Master, when will we start practicing?"

Master looked up at the sky and said, "Let's start now!"

Master asked Qiangzi and I to find many broken bamboos and insert them into the soil. When Master had inserted them, Qiangzi and I looked at the broken bamboos in front of us in amazement and found that they seemed to be able to move.

Master smiled at us, "This is called the Five Elements Formation. It produces countless changes according to the changes of the Five Elements. This formation is used to trap the enemy. Once something breaks into the Five Elements Formation, the Five Elements Formation will open on its own, all the time.

Everything is constantly changing, and unless the enemy has wings, he will never be able to get out again!"

"It's amazing. It seems that there is a lot of knowledge in this Maoshan technique." Qiangzi and I looked happy.

Master said: "This formation is not the most brilliant. In addition, there are Bagua formation and Four Elephant formation. The most powerful ones are Xuantian Demon Subduing Formation and Earthly Branch Ghost Fighting Formation, which are specially used to deal with extremely vicious evil spirits."

The devil."

I asked Master what formations I should learn first, and Master said: "Everything must be down-to-earth. If you don't even understand the introductory knowledge and want to learn how to set up formations, you should memorize the formulas first!"

"Fashion?"

"Yes, the five elements formula is actually very simple. Just follow me and recite it. One is water, the second is fire, the third is wood, the fourth is gold, and the fifth is earth. Water is called moistening, fire is called inflammation, wood is called straight, and gold is called earth.

From leather, soil is associated with crops. Moisturized soil is salty, inflammation is bitter, curves are sour, leather is pungent, and crops are sweet. The five elements are interdependent: metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, and earth generates metal.

The five elements are in conflict: metal is in conflict with wood, wood is in conflict with earth, earth is in conflict with water, water is in conflict with fire, and fire is in conflict with metal. The five elements are in conflict with each other: metal is in conflict with earth, earth is in conflict with fire, fire is in conflict with wood, wood is in conflict with water, and water is in conflict with metal. The five elements are in conflict with each other: metal evaporates.

Water, water drowns wood, wood drowns fire, fire dries earth, and earth covers gold.”

Master recited this long series of formulas in one breath, and I listened at a loss, unable to keep up with the rhythm. Master was not angry, and took the trouble to repeat these lengthy formulas. After memorizing them for about half an hour, I was able to fully understand them.

Having memorized the Five Elements Jue by heart, Qiangzi fell asleep early in the morning, snoring loudly.

At three o'clock in the morning, I was sitting in the bamboo forest, memorizing the obscure Five Elements formula over and over again. To be honest, if it weren't for saving my own life, I wouldn't be a Maoshan disciple if I were beaten to death.
