Xu Zhenren looked at Xu Lang. He had never thought that Xu Lang was so straightforward. He asked for martial arts knowledge and advice as soon as he met him. He couldn't help laughing. He didn't look at Xu Lang for the moment, but looked at Wang Yangming next to him.
"This little brother is called Xu Lang."
Wang Yangming extended his hand to introduce and said: "I have only been studying martial arts for more than a month. Liu Jin was chasing me because of me. The two of us escaped from Hangzhou together."
"You can't learn martial arts for more than a month?"
Hearing this, Zhenren Xu looked at Xu Lang seriously and said: "Looking at your entry, you have worked hard, but you haven't met a famous teacher. No wonder you are like this..."
Study hard and practice hard, but you don’t have a good teacher.
It’s no wonder that after meeting someone, he would ask for advice.
"If you sincerely want to learn, I can naturally teach you some self-defense methods."
Xu Zhenren has a kind-hearted nature. He was able to reveal the profound inner-gong practice methods during the conversation when he first met Wang Yangming. Naturally, he was kind-hearted to someone like Xu Lang who came to learn the skills.
What's more, according to Wang Yangming, Xu Lang was implicated and was being hunted by Liu Jin.
"Seeing that you are here in such a hurry and there is no place to stay, how about you come with me to the Taoist temple to rest?"
Xu Zhenren asked with a smile.
"That would be perfect."
Wang Yangming bowed his hands and said with a hearty smile.
Xu Zhenren smiled casually, turned around, took Wang Yangming and Xu Lang, and headed towards the slightly remote mountain road.
"Where will Master Xu settle down?"
Xu Lang followed behind and asked aloud.
Wang Yangming was a generous gentleman. He suddenly met an old friend here, and he was unprepared. However, Xu Lang didn't know the details of the Taoist in front of him, so he still asked.
"The boy is quite wary."
Xu Zhenren looked back at Xu Lang and said with a smile: "Shouren, if you trust people so easily, you will inevitably suffer losses when traveling in the world."
Wang Yangming smiled when he heard this, followed Xu Zhenren, and said: "Good thoughts arise and people know them, evil thoughts arise and people control them. Yangming always has this heart, so the good and evil in people's hearts are mostly clear."
When Xu Zhenren heard this, he laughed and said: "This is the principle of Confucian self-cultivation."
It was almost dusk, and the mountains and forests were deep and dark.
Xu Zhenren walked in front unhurriedly, and at the same time talked about himself to Xu Lang and Wang Yangming, saying: "The lineage I inherited is the Quanzhen lineage of the Song Dynasty, and the founder of the sect is Wang Chongyang.
Wang Chongyang passed down the Seven Quanzhen disciples, and after that, they spread their branches and established seven sects, among which I am a member of the Longmen sect."
Dragon Gate Sect?
Xu Lang thought for a while, but felt that he had been watching Swordsman for a long time, and he still knew about the Five Mountains Sword Sect, the Sun and Moon Sect, and Shaolin Wudang, but the Longmen Sect was very vague, and it was not clear whether there was any record of this sect.
"Dragon Gate Sect?"
Wang Yangming was surprised, raised his hands and said, "It turns out to be the inheritance of Qiu Chuji, a real person from Changchun."
When Master Xu heard this, he nodded repeatedly.
Xu Lang knew Qiu Chuji's name quite well. Among the Quanzhen Seven Sons in The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Condor Heroes, although their martial arts were not top-notch, Jin Yong also used a lot of literary ink on Qiu Chuji, and he was regarded as one of the Quanzhen Seven Sons.
The one with the best martial arts skills and the most outstanding among the Seven Sons.
"Yes, it is the Longmen sect passed down by the founder of Changchun."
Xu Zhenren smiled happily and said: "After the Longmen sect was passed down, the first patriarch was Yin Zhiping. Grandmaster Yin collected the bones of the Changchun patriarch and taught for eight years, and then returned to Zhongnan Mountain to repair the Quanzhen ancestral court.
The founder Li Zhichang succeeded to the throne. After the death of the founder Li Zhichang, the Longmen sect was lost. They moved the sect to the capital, interacted with the powerful people in the dynasty, built palaces and temples, and even destroyed many Buddhist temples.
Smashed the Buddha statue..."
Speaking of these past events, Xu Zhenren sighed with regret and said: "Later, there were twenty years of debate between Buddhism and Taoism, the most important of which was around the "Laozi Hua Hu Jing" published by the Longmen Sect. In the end, the Longmen Sect failed and lost the Mongolian authorities.
With the support, he escaped into the mountains and forests again, restored the teachings of Patriarch Qiu Chuji, and became a hermit monk in Longmen."
After hearing these words, Xu Lang had a clearer understanding of the Quanzhen Sect.
Originally, in his opinion, this Quanzhen lineage was the Shooting Condor, which existed during the period of the Divine Condor and was no longer viable in Yitian. However, according to Xu Zhenren's words, this Quanzhen lineage has existed until now.
And based on what Xu Zhenren said, Xu Lang thought that the bastard from the period of the Divine Eagle was probably Zhen Zhibing.
"Grandmaster Wang Chongyang is really amazing. All the seven Quanzhen disciples under his sect have inherited the same lineage."
Wang Yangming heard this and said: "Liu Chuxuan founded the Suishan sect, Tan Chuduan founded the Nanwu sect, Ma Yu founded the Yushan sect, Hao Datong founded the Huashan sect, Wang Chuyi founded the Yushan sect, and Sun Buer founded
The Purity Sect was established, and these sects still exist one by one to this day..."
"Xu Zhenren."
Wang Yangming looked at Master Xu and said, "My official career is not going well and I am discouraged. I want to escape into the mountains to practice with Master Xu. Are you willing to accept me?"
When Xu Zhenren heard this, he just smiled, looked at Wang Yangming, and asked: "Have you forgotten your ideal of cultivating yourself, harmonizing your family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world?"
When Wang Yangming heard this, he choked for a moment.
"When the great righteousness fails, there is benevolence and righteousness; when wisdom emerges, there is great hypocrisy; when relatives are in discord, there is filial piety and kindness; when the country is in confusion, there are loyal ministers."
Xu Zhenren quoted a line from the Tao Te Ching, looked at Wang Yangming, and said: "The country now needs people like you. How can you give up so easily?"
When Wang Yangming heard this, he immediately had a look of shame on his face. He raised his hands and saluted Master Xu, indicating that he had been taught.
The three of them were talking and walking together. Even though they were all going up the mountain steps, their steps were steady. Even Xu Lang had the lowest martial arts skills among them. With the blessing of Zhuang Kung Fu, his foot was steady, and it wasn't long before he was gone.
We reached the top of the mountain and came to the Taoist temple here.
"This place is somewhat similar to the Longevity Palace."
Wang Yangming looked at the layout of the Taoist temple and said aloud.
"My disciple presides over the Wanshou Palace."
Xu Zhenren smiled and said: "I traveled there and lived there for some time, and it happened to be where I met you. We hit it off and chatted with each other. Although you are a Confucian scholar, these three teachings
, are basically the same, and I also received a lot of inspiration from you."
Wang Yangming clasped his fists in shame and said, "It was only because of your inspiration that I was able to save my life in prison."
Xu Zhenren smiled and nodded, and said, "Do you know the origin of the scripture that you and I were talking about at that time?"
Wang Yangming shook his head in confusion.
"That scroll of scriptures is the innate skill passed down by Patriarch Qiu Chuji and passed down from Patriarch Wang Chongyang. Although it is only a fragment, it has also benefited us a lot."
