Chapter 83: The Secret of Snake Island
The kite was huge, and Gu Shengchao felt uneasy lying on it. When he reached the sky above Snake Island, he felt frightened again. The inexplicable surprise and panic were mixed in his heart.
He was shocked to find that Snake Island was like a supine giant lying there quietly, complete with head, body, arms and legs.
The kite carrying Gu Shengchao slid over the "giant"'s belly, and the streams were clearly identifiable. From a bird's-eye view from a high altitude, the streams were clearly the meridians on the "giant", clearly telling people above that the meaning of each meridian was
The relationship between the direction and meridians.
The ancient sage did not dare to be careless and carefully wrote down everything he saw.
A strong wind passed by, and the big kite moved with the air current, slowly crossed the Snake Island, and finally landed on the river on the other side of the Snake Island.
Wanruo was worried about the safety of Gu Shengchao, so he led many disciples around Snake Island and came to the river to watch nervously. But he was relieved when he saw him swimming in the river.
After landing, he didn't bother to wipe himself off and was wearing wet clothes. Gu Shengchao and Wu Jun asked for pen and ink to briefly describe the scene he observed on a piece of paper. Wan Ruo was also pleasantly surprised after reading it.
"I didn't look carefully in many places. There is also a kite, which I just wanted to try out for the last time." Gu Shengchao pointed at the picture and said.
Knowing the whole story, Wan Ruo immediately refused: "No, what if you are injured? Anyway, there is enough time, we can go to Snake Island to check it out slowly." She turned around and ordered loudly to her disciples: "You all
Go back, we don't need the kite, you can do whatever you want with it."
The disciples took the order and rode back under the leadership of Wu Jun and Yu Ji. After a while, Gu Shengchao and Wan Ruo saw the kite rising high and flying away amidst the cheers of the disciples.
There was no one else around. Gu Shengchao went to the hut on Chijin Mountain to change into clean clothes. Wanruo applied medicinal mud to his naked body, and the two joined hands to set foot on Snake Island again.
This time they had a direction, so the two of them focused on observing the direction of each stream and marked them one by one on the paper. After three days of busy work, they finally figured out the starting positions of all the springs and the paths through which they flowed.
Back in the wooden house in Chijin Mountain, the two posted the drawings on the wall and sat side by side to ponder them carefully.
Gu Shengchao watched, and the true energy in the meridians inadvertently began to move as shown in the picture. The more he practiced, the more surprised he became. This was not the secret of Fengwu swordsmanship. It was clearly the core secret of the Five Soul Array. Really
The way Qi moves through the meridians is exactly the same as the Five Soul Formation taught to him by Lu Chuan.
Noticing the changes in Gu Shengchao's expression, she was sometimes pleased and sometimes surprised. Wan Ruo thought he was possessed, so she touched him lightly and said worriedly: "Mr. sir, are you okay?"
Gu Shengchao shook his head: "I'm fine. We are not the first ones to discover this secret."
"What, who else could it be?" If Wan didn't believe it, how could anyone know the secret earlier that they had worked so hard to obtain by chance?
Gu Shengchao told her: "It's Senior Lu Chuan. He knew it earlier than all of us."
"Brother Lu, what proof do you have?" Wan Ruo couldn't believe it. Lu Chuan left the Four Kings Valley more than 20 years ago and has never returned, which she absolutely cannot understand.
Keeping the mental methods and formulas of the Five Soul Array in mind, he told Wan Ruo word for word, and finally said: "I suddenly understood just now that Senior Lu should have discovered this secret very early, and then he found it in the valley under Qixing Cliff
I realized something during the healing process, and created the Five Soul Array based on this secret. In this way, the woman in black I met on the boat on Luoxian Lake in the capital, and the Five Soul Array did not trap her, must be Feng
Sword Dance and Phoenix-Seeking Sword Technique have the same source. If that woman is really from the Phoenix-Seeking Sword Technique, it will be easier to understand that she can resolve the Five Soul Formation."
Wan Ruo pondered for a moment and said with admiration: "You are right. Brother Lu Chuan's views on martial arts are inherently unique. When collecting medicine on Snake Island and seeing the strange appearance of springs and streams, we must have doubts. Let's work hard to do this.
It takes a lot of effort to figure it out. I guess Brother Lu has already figured it out, and he can find it just by walking around."
At that moment, Wanruo practiced the Five Soul Formation.
The ancient sage Chaoyue admired her understanding and racked his brains. Later, he taught him the skills step by step in Luchuan, the capital, and Wanruo mastered them all easily.
After practicing, Wanruo waved the sword with his left hand, and the figure and the shadow of the sword merged into one. The phoenix dance sword skills made him perfect. The ancient saint was stunned. He had never seen someone so skilled in sword skills. She had a set of swords.
After finishing the magic, he slashed at the big tree in front with his sword diagonally. The big tree was immediately dislocated from the middle, and the upper part slid down and fell to the side.
"This, how did you do this?" Gu Shengchao's eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
Withdrawing the sword, Wan Ruoyun Danfeng said lightly: "The set of internal skills and mental techniques on Snake Island that I just learned can not only be used in the Five Soul Formation, but can also be used in sword techniques and palm techniques. It depends on your skills."
Are talent and wisdom the same thing?"
"But, I don't seem to be connected yet." Gu Shengchao scratched his head, feeling a little regretful.
Holding Gu Shengchao's hand, Wanruo stared at him with a doting look on her face and said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? I know your wife, are you still afraid of her?"
The ancient sage was very happy: "Teach me quickly."
Rolling her eyes, Wan Ruo said charmingly: "If you want me to teach you something simple, you have to satisfy me first."
"Can we change the method?" Gu Shengchao discussed.
"No." Seeing that the ancient sage was about to run away, she used the Five Soul Formation to trap him. She stepped forward and pushed him down before riding on him...
After staying in Chijin Mountain for a few days, the two mastered the Five Soul Formation and Fengwu Sword Techniques, and became even more proficient in Jiutian Biluo Palm. Under Wan Ruo's guidance, Gu Shengchao finally understood a truth.
Kung Fu is dead, but people are alive.
In Gu Shengchao's understanding, all martial arts moves must be completed in strict accordance with mental methods and formulas. For example, in the Five Soul Formation, Lu Chuan originally planted five swords in his Dantian because the Dantian was destroyed and he used the sword.
The array was used to nourish the true energy. Later, his Dantian was repaired, and Jingcheng told him the final use of the Five Soul Array, but he just used it mechanically, not daring to let the five swords come out again.
He was inspired when he saw Wan Ruo using the Five Soul Formation as he wished, and realized that the sword formation in his Dantian had long since lost its original function and could be used for other purposes.
There was also the Fengwu Sword Technique. He only knew how to practice it by copying the formulas from the Luo Ya Bay Cave. Who would have expected that Wan Ruo would have mixed in her own mental techniques to apply them. With the discovery on Snake Island, she immediately innovated.
And the actual power is much higher than that of the ancient sage.
Gu Shengchao also thought about the fact that there are many people who have passed down the Qiuhuang Sword Technique, why only the Beihu Three Demons sect has developed powerful perception. The reason is that the same content, different people using different methods, can derive completely different things.
.
Wan Ruo reminded him: "I have many disciples, why do I only value Wu Jun and Yu Ji?"
"They are obedient and please you!" Gu Shengchao said without hesitation.
"Wrong." Wan Ruo corrected his wrong view, "I treated everyone equally at first, but later I found out that they were teaching the same thing. When others were still confused and confused, these two people had already taken the lead in understanding it. The same goes for arranging tasks on weekdays.
Some disciples can just muddle along, and some disciples work hard but always have difficulties and need to be taught step by step to finish it. These two people can immediately understand my intention without much effort, and they are more thoughtful."
The look in Gu Shengchao's eyes became determined. Wan Ruo was like a big sister who taught Zun Zun: "The gap between people is like this. Some seem to be almost the same, and some are actually very different. It depends on how you distinguish them."
Already."
On the way back, Gu Shengchao asked: "We spent a lot of time on Snake Island, and now there are definitely rumors in the valley. How should we report it to the valley owner when we get back?"
Wan Ruo said without hesitation: "Just tell the truth, but it is limited to the three chapters of Phoenix Dance Sword Technique and the direction of springs and streams seen on Snake Island. The rest depends on their fate and is not our responsibility."
She was afraid that Gu Shengchao wouldn't understand, so she explained: "For smart people like Brother Lu Chuan, they can understand without saying much; but for some stupid people, you just put your thoughts and thoughts into
If you give everything you earn with both hands, the other party will not appreciate it and will discard it like worn out shoes. In the end, it will be used as a wedding dress for others. It is not worth it."
When they returned to the Four Kings Valley, they did not go home to rest, but went directly to the owner of the valley, Qiu Xiao, to report what they had discovered on Snake Island. Qiu Xiao was calm after listening to their stories, showing the calmness and wisdom that a leader should have, and he immediately ordered
, first sent a pair of troops to block the entry and exit of Snake Island, and did not allow drug farmers to go to Snake Island to capture venomous snakes to refine medicinal materials, in order to prevent the scene from being destroyed by criminals with ulterior motives.
The owner of the valley, Qiu Zhu, then assigned a task to the two of them. Recently, many unidentified strangers had appeared in the town outside. He asked them to stay in the town for a period of time to deter those outsiders with malicious intentions.
After that, he handed Gu Shengchao a jade pendant: "This is your unique certificate. With this, you can pass freely even if the guards don't know you when entering and leaving the Four Kings Valley."
Gu Shengchao carefully took it with both hands. There were complicated patterns on the jade pendant, with the word "Chao" in the middle. He instantly understood why Lu Chuan also had such a jade pendant. It was the proof that they belonged to the Four Kings Valley.
Gu Shengchao came to the Four Kings Valley for his first mission. He was so happy that he accompanied Wan Ruo on a boat out of the valley that day.
After landing, Gu Shengchao looked at the way he came from again, and then noticed that although the cave at the entrance was hidden, it extended to both sides in a herringbone shape. Blindly climbing over the dangerous peaks above would only lead him farther and farther away from the valley. No wonder that day
Can't find it anywhere.
The river was flowing clear, and Wan Ruo held Gu Shengchao's arm, and the two of them walked down the pebbles on the river bank.
Gu Shengchao worriedly asked: "The Valley Master sent people to blockade Snake Island. Will they make kites and fly up to check it out like us?"
After thinking for a moment, Wan Ruo shook his head and said: "Impossible. As far as I know, no one in the Four Kings Valley can freely enter and exit Snake Island like you. They all have to be naked and smeared with medicinal mud before they can go up. If you go up rashly, you will definitely escape death.
.I guess the valley owners will definitely want to check it out for themselves, let them do it, anyway, what we are telling you is the truth, unless they are lucky enough to make new discoveries."
"Is it possible? We have visited every corner of Snake Island." Gu Shengchao didn't believe that others could make new discoveries.
The breeze blows across the river, the water ripples, and the mountains and trees are reflected in the water, blending in with the mountains on the shore, making them even more towering and majestic.
