Su Hongzhen was about to come forward and thank Gui Wujiu for helping him, but Gui Wujiu stopped him with a wave of his hand.
According to the normal way, if an unfathomable big shot takes the initiative to express his kindness, you should naturally catch it and seize it, maybe it will be a big opportunity.
But Su Hongzhen knew very well that the personalities and temperaments of people in the Immortal Way were extraordinary and had profound meanings. Perhaps the Immortal Master saw that he acted bravely when he saw justice, so he felt sympathy; if he took the initiative to cling to him, he would not be able to point out and would only create resentment.
I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Gui Wujiu smiled slightly and said, "I would like to go to Jianyang Martial Arts Society to have a look, and also pay a visit to Jingyang Martial Saint. Is that okay?"
Su Hongzhen was overjoyed and said: "Your honor, please wait a moment. Su will prepare a car for you."
Gui Wujiu said: "That's not necessary. You are not weak in martial arts, so just lead the way. I expect that since you are a powerful force in Yuchang City, we won't be too far apart."
Su Hongzhen nodded quickly.
Gui Wujiu went down the stairs, and was about to make an account, when his thoughts suddenly struck him, but he realized that although there were many spiritual stones and rare treasures in his holding ring, there was no silver.
Seeing the opportunity, the shopkeeper quickly shook his hands, trying to refuse.
With his mortal eyes, the shopkeeper didn't see clearly how Gui Wujiu helped Su Hongzhen fight off the enemy. However, he was a powerful person in "Tianranju", and Gui Wujiu alone quietly cured his back injury, thus avoiding the risk of injury.
The pain of raising him for more than a month is enough to outweigh this meal.
However, before the shopkeeper could open his mouth, he threw a small porcelain bottle over and said: "These pills also have some effects on strengthening the body, curing diseases and prolonging life. If you are willing, you can use them as deductions
If you don't want to, wait until I go to the bank to exchange the money and then pay."
A flash of red flashed across the shopkeeper's face, he stopped his joy, thanked her profusely, and walked him twenty or thirty steps out the door.
He is also a wise man and does not dare to force him to stay.
Su Hongzhen's footsteps were really strong. It only took about a quarter of an hour to walk from the middle of Yuchang City to a deserted mountain courtyard twenty or thirty miles away.
Because Huang Xiyin didn't enjoy her lunch to the fullest and refused to eat and walk at the same time, he picked her up without any blame and followed her closely.
"Green Pocket Beast" falls asleep as soon as it enters the spirit beast ring. With such a short journey, there is no need to wake it up again.
In the country of ordinary people, everything is restricted by imperial power.
For example, there are strict regulations on the height of the eaves, the size of the courtyard, the depth of the wall base, and even the number of copper nails on the gate. Therefore, the foundation of the "Jianyang Martial Arts Society" is not as grand as imagined.
It is spacious and looks very fresh and simple, just like a villa belonging to a wealthy family.
Of course, if Jingyang claims to be a disciple of Jianyue Xuanzong, or if he truly cultivates to a level that is indistinguishable from that of a Jindan monk, this level of restriction can be completely removed, and he will be free from imperial power.
What you can see when you welcome the door is a large-scale martial arts performance field with a length and width of one hundred and twenty feet. It is divided into one large field and twenty-four small fields. Weapons and instruments are arranged vertically and horizontally. The disciples who are practicing are really not.
few.
Su Hongzhen led the way. In the martial arts arena, all the disciples within ten feet of the two swords between each other would step forward to clasp their fists and call them "senior brother"; but beyond the range of ten feet, even if their skills were extremely high
Qian, the young and humble disciples all turned a blind eye to Su Hongzhen and just focused on their own cultivation.
It can be seen that this "Jianyang Martial Arts Club" has its own special rules.
Gui Wujiu made a clear distinction. Those who practiced martial arts in the martial arts arena practiced another type of secular martial arts, which did not evolve from the sword tablets they left behind.
Asking Su Hongzhen about this, Su Hongzhen said: "The secret technique of the Sword Stele that my mentor learned six years ago has only been passed down to six disciples so far. Even the three most recent direct disciples have not been taught it."
After entering the main hall and serving tea, Su Hongzhen went to the back hall, but when he came back, he looked troubled.
Gui Wujiu asked why, and found out that his master Jing Yang was practicing in the back mountain at this time.
Gui Wujiu had already seen it clearly when he entered the martial arts club. Because the martial arts club occupies a large area, it cannot occupy the center of Yuchang City; the location where it is located is actually on the edge of the outer city.
However, the outer city of Yuchang City is not closed and connected. You can see from a distance that a solitary peak towers into the clouds in the northwest corner, as if it is a natural city wall with inlaid partitions.
This peak is called "Ci Quan Peak". From time to time, Jingyang Wusheng practiced in the thatched cottage on the top of the peak, and there was no fixed rule on where to live.
Today, a distinguished guest is coming. Su Hongzhen was supposed to invite the master to come down the mountain to meet him. However, although his skills are similar to those of a foundation-building monk, he does not have the flying escape magic weapon with him. He comes and goes, which will inevitably delay his efforts. The guest's cultivation level is expected.
, it’s easy to fly in the clouds and mist; but it would be rude to ask him to carry you instead.
Gui Wujiu smiled when he heard this and said, "What's so difficult about this?"
He immediately took out a small Dharma boat and carried Su Hongzhen to the top of the mountain in the north.
As soon as the light disappeared, it soared hundreds of feet into the sky; in an instant, only the sound of exclamations of surprise was left on the martial arts field.
We reached the top of the mountain in an instant.
The cold mist drifts back and forth, as if a solitary boat is floating on the top of the sea of clouds, and the exquisite mountains below are completely invisible.
After Su Hongzhen entered the thatched cottage, after waiting for a while, someone came out.
This man was wearing a short linen jacket, bare arms, and had a very square face. His two-inch hair was shaved into a flat top, which was neat and tidy. He came up to him, looked at Gui Wujiu and Huang Xiyin briefly, and said: "
When a distinguished guest comes, I am not welcomed from afar, but I still beg for forgiveness." The sound is like a yellow bell, penetrating through the clouds and mist, without attenuating at all.
At a glance, Gui Wujiu knew that this man had mastered martial arts to the highest level.
I learned from the shopkeeper of "Tiantianju" that the "Martial Saint" Jingyang achieved great success in martial arts when he was thirty years old, and he became a member of the Jianyue Xuanzong two years later.
Time. Then this person’s age should be thirty-eight.
But now the person in front of Gui Wujiu, no matter the muscles and bones, or the spirit exuding from his body, he has the appearance of an eighteen-year-old, and he is real. This is not something that can be compared with "the art of maintaining appearance", it is the way to walk.
Before Shou Yuan, he is approaching the state that can be achieved by refining Qi and staying in form.
It's just that on another level, this "Jingyang" Martial Saint has greatly exceeded Gui Wu's expectations.
This person does have spiritual roots, which is one of the prerequisites for "entering Taoism from martial arts", and it is not abnormal. What is really strange is that his qualifications are not very high - that is, he is at the sixth or seventh level.
Although Jingyang's attitude was calm and unhurried, it still showed that he was very cautious. When he was enlightening the stele in Jianyue Xuanzong, he came into contact with more than one Taoist senior who was also involved in metaphysics. At this time, with his superb attainments in martial arts, Jingyang's heart
I have an intuition: those seniors in the Nascent Soul Realm who realized the stele together are far inferior to the young man in front of me.
Gui Wujiu turned to Su Hongzhen and said, "You should go down the mountain first. Your master and I have something to say."
When Su Hongzhen saw his master, he also gave him a look, bowed respectfully, and retreated from the mountain path.
Gui Wujiu put Huang Xiyin down smoothly; she was like a little monkey, running around the mountain looking for strange things, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
After thinking about it, Gui Wujiu took out a white scroll from his sleeve. As the golden light flowed from his fingertips, it instantly condensed into more than ten lines of handwriting, and then a gust of breeze blew it down in front of Jing Yang.
Jingyang frowned into the character "Chuan" and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean?"
Gui Wujiu said with a smile: "I guess you have had many opportunities since you entered martial arts. What An Zhi sees in front of you may not be a new opportunity?"
Jing Yang's expression softened, and then he took the long scroll in front of him. However, once the writing in this scroll came into view and he appreciated its meaning, he could no longer erase it.
At this glance, it lasted two full hours.
Two hours later, Jing Yang suddenly let out a sigh of relief.
Gui Wujiu suddenly asked: "One qi is divided into three qi: Xuan, Yuan, and Shi, which are the masters of heaven and earth. Which one is the top, which one is the middle, and which one is the bottom?"
Jing Yang replied unknowingly: "The initial Qi is the top, the Yuan Qi is the middle, and the Xuan Qi is the bottom."
Gui Wujiu said again: "One birth is two, two is giving birth to three, how do you create the Dharma?"
…
The two of them kept asking and answering questions for half an hour before they knew it.
There is no blame, if you think about it.
Back then, he intended to test Qin Menglin's depth, and he also used the "Nine Yuan Book" as a matchmaker. Today, he is just repeating the same trick.
After seeing Jingyang's spiritual root qualifications, Gui Wujiu's first thought was whether this person was as talented as himself, with a "Jade Cauldron slip". But now through this question-and-answer test, he discovered that Jingyang
His understanding is roughly consistent with his spiritual qualifications, and there is nothing surprising about it.
After a while of silence, Gui Wujiu suddenly said: "I wonder how Jing Wu Sheng got to where he is today?"
Jing Yang's expression remained unchanged and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"
Gui Wujiu said calmly: "There are no coincidences in the world. What's more, even if there are truly unparalleled talents from ancient times to the present, Gui has not seen it. Frankly speaking, Taoist friend Jing does not seem to have the cultivation level he has today."
"You have been given an opportunity, but it was not something you could comprehend based on your qualifications."
Jing Yang lowered his head and did not answer.
Gui Wujiu suddenly laughed and made a sword with his parallel fingers.
I saw a flash of green light, and suddenly the peak of the mountain, which was about 50 to 60 feet away, about 6 to 7 feet high and more than 10 feet wide, fell with a sword, and fell into the valley behind.
Among them, only a blue stone platform as smooth as a mirror was left.
Gui Wujiu slowly walked forward, drew his sword, and sheathed it. It seemed that something was left on the smooth stone platform.
Jingyang Martial Saint thought that he had reached the pinnacle of martial arts cultivation, but he didn't see Gui Wu's actions clearly. He walked forward unconsciously and watched carefully.
However, after seeing the answer to the riddle, Jing Yang's expression finally changed.
The three small sword-shaped flowers are just like those seen on the monument six years ago, with the same atmosphere and charm.
Jiang Xin glanced at Gui Wujiu suspiciously, and whispered: "Are you the master who left the "Guide" monument to Jian Yue Xuan Zong?"
Gui Wujiu smiled and said leisurely: "So, you understand? Gui just wants to have a look. The opportunity passed down must not be unclear. I am not coveting any treasures from you."
Jing Yang bowed solemnly and immediately closed his eyes.
Gui Wujiu could tell that he was trying to stimulate his Dantian, secretly getting lucky.
After a few breaths, three maple leaves appeared on Jingyang's forehead.
