Chapter 120 How many floors are there in the Zhutian Wild Goose Pagoda?
Jiang Wen still clearly remembered that he came to this city of Fuzhou because of a few scraps of paper in the construction album.
Those pieces of paper looked light and dirty, but they clearly represented something that had disappeared, and a corner of the picture quietly unfolded in front of him.
"Netherworld..."
Hiding the piece of paper in his sleeve, Jiang Wen faced the suddenly revealed old alley, hesitated for a moment, and prepared to step into it with his head held high.
No matter how gloomy, no matter how quiet, no matter how bottomless, it is just an alley - compared with Jiang Wen's curiosity, the alley is still too shallow after all.
"Be careful not to enter."
"Please stay."
Two faint voices suddenly sounded from behind, as if there were figures vaguely looking at each other, hanging in the air next to the short tower, accompanied by the cold water of the cold canal of the Baima River, and the hazy moonlight, slowly passing by.
The human tower moves back and forth.
Jiang Wen's eyesight was astounding, and he saw two people in the distance, each wearing long black and white clothes. Their figures were slim and their movements were strange, swinging up and down in the wind as if they were flying through space.
However, not only did the two of them pretend to be weird, but they also looked scary. They looked as straight as a hanged ghost. Their eyes were whiter than black, and the corners of their mouths were drooped. If it weren't for the lantern that could still shine out their shadows, Jiang Wen would have thought they were the black and white impermanent people of the underworld.
Came to chat with him.
What's even more coincidental is that Jiang Wen has met these two people.
"It turns out to be Kunzhong of the Chang family! Why don't you even recognize me?"
Needless to say, these two people were clearly Jiang Wen's tablemates at the banquet, brothers Chang Hezhi and Chang Bozhi from the Qingcheng Sect in Sichuan.
The two people who were suddenly called out and hung on the side of the tower with flying claws to pretend to be ghosts were immediately embarrassed. Fortunately, a person came out from behind the tower to resolve the embarrassment.
"It turns out to be Director Jiang of the Lin family. Just now I saw that you were about to stray into a ghost alley, so I asked my disciple to remind you not to take offense."
The tall and thin Taoist said polite words without emotion, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Wen and the alley behind him. It was not clear whether he was referring to a reminder for safety or a warning.
"Priest Changqingzi, Your Majesty has been away from the banquet for a few hours, and you still look as charming as ever!"
Jiang Wen complimented the other party without any sincerity.
This alley could not be some kind of ghost alley, but these three people must have evil intentions. They were guarding the entrance of the alley late at night and did not call out to Jiang Wen until he appeared. This means that they must be aware of the problem inside.
Several ruthless people were hiding in the Tower of Savior just now, but Jiang Wen didn't notice anything unusual - this Tower of Savior made Jiang Wen feel extremely uncomfortable, and he almost ran away after just taking a closer look.
Even the noisy alleys are more lovable than this one.
The Tower of Savior is not about fear, it is about the feeling of discomfort in the heart.
This tower-like building is surrounded by bricks and stones and only has two small openings. It may be difficult to imagine just by its name and appearance. This place, which looks not much different from a pagoda, has buried endless sins and dead souls.
The openings in the tower are not used for ventilation, but for discarding children.
This tower is not used for daily prayers, but it is a baby's grave made of piled bones.
The small blurry Buddha statue on the top of the tower is simply a mockery and provocation to the gods and Buddhas in the world.
"Chief Jiang, there is so much injustice here and ghosts everywhere. I have been searching for this place for a long time, and it is expected that this is the place that caused the disaster in the city. This time, the Crown Prince appreciates our Qingcheng sect, so my master and disciple are making sacrifices. You'd better leave as soon as possible.
Bar."
Chang Qingzi issued an eviction order without ceremony, and seemed to intend to stay at the entrance of the alley until dawn.
But Jiang Wen burst into laughter.
"Isn't this a coincidence? In fact, I am also good at saving the souls of the dead and resolving grievances. As a righteous person, Jiang, how could I stand by and watch?"
After saying that, he shook the scabbard, revealing the polished and gleaming blade of the ancient bronze sword, and said directly, "There have been many disasters in Fuzhou City, and I can't bear it. I will help you this time."
deal!"
Jiang Wen's eyes were full of amusement, but Chang Qingzi didn't know why, but he always felt that the young man in front of him, who was only a few years older than his apprentice, suddenly exuded a biting anger.
Jiang Wen also didn't understand Chang Qingzi's doubts.
He just had a strong feeling of disgust, hating the other party for blaming the misfortunes in the city on the dead baby.
Could it be that these little things, who were unable to resist adults or fate at all during their lives, would be able to have all-powerful abilities after death and cause all kinds of misfortunes in the world? If ghosts and gods really have spirits, then who should be blamed for these things?
Can the sins on one's body be wiped out by burning paper candles?
"Don't be rude to your teacher!"
"Leave Netherworld Alley quickly!"
The two brothers Chang Hezhi and Chang Bozhi always complemented each other when talking, and they were obviously unhappy with Jiang Wen's offense. They slowly walked forward, one black and one white like a netherworld, and the lightness skills on their bodies were unexpectedly beyond their own kind.
The two of them undoubtedly planned to use force to expel Jiang Wen from here.
Chang Qingzi and Lin Zhennan were both martial arts men recruited by Geng Jingzhong, so for him to directly engage Jiang Wen was to give others the excuse and lower his status.
But if two apprentices took action on the grounds of their dignity as teachers, everything would be a matter of course. Even if they sued the Prince of Jingnan, no one would be able to say a typo.
I saw the palms of the two men suddenly protruding from under the long sleeves of their broad robes. They were practicing attacks with one left and one right hand, grabbing Jiang Wen's shoulders with a bone-crossing technique. If Jiang Wen was just an ordinary swordsman in the world, no matter whether he used a left-handed sword or a right-handed sword,
Sword, this journey will definitely give up all the swordsmanship in your body.
It's no wonder they misunderstood. After all, Jiang Wen was carrying two swords, a long one and a short one, when they met at the banquet.
But suddenly, Jiang Wen's body suddenly took two steps back even though his feet were still moving, and the Chang brothers' grasp was immediately in vain.
At this moment, Jiang Wen's body swayed back to its original position, his shoulders naturally leaned forward, and an overwhelming force surged towards the two of them, uniting their waists and horses.
The martial arts master was knocked back.
The two people who were suddenly deflated were shocked and angry, but their expressions were expressionless. Their movements had been transformed into palm movements in unison, instantly treating Jiang Wen, who was unknown in the world, as a powerful enemy.
The two men struck out in anger, both palms out, with the middle door wide open. It seemed that they wanted to use their four hands to force down their fists, so that Jiang Wen would learn a big lesson.
Black Sand Palm is a martial art that emphasizes the distinction between the inside and outside. The inner mind is in the hand, and it is transported by the mind. The path of Qi travels from the Dantian, lower abdomen, Tanzhong, and Jianjing from the inside of the hand to the Hand Lao Palace, so that the power is filled in the palm;
On the outside, the energy is carried together, and the strength penetrates the sand and stones. The palm force emitted flows down through the palms. During practice, it has the power to break through the sandbags and smash the hard platform.
Once a person in the world is hit by the black sand palm, a black palm mark will be left on the wound quickly, and the blood will clot and stasis, blocking his own blood vessels. Therefore, it is difficult to treat and save those who are infected, and it is difficult to survive by chance.
He is worthy of being a character in Jin Yong’s world.
Jiang Wen secretly admired in his heart that the Chang brothers appeared as the heads of the Red Flower Club in "The Book of Swords and Enmities". It is said that after the death of their master, Taoist Hui Lv, they were unrivaled in the martial arts world with their black sand palm skills, and the two brothers became even more famous.
Cruel and ruthless.
After the real fight started, Jiang Wen's mood calmed down a lot. Just now, the fire of ignorance slowly dissipated with 10% of his internal energy, and he decided to have a good time with these two characters who were invaded by Jin Yong's Jianghu.
Although Black Sand Palm is cunning and ruthless, how could Jiang Wen, who has countless martial arts knowledge, be so lacking in such a skill?
"Well done!"
Jiang Wen stood with his legs still, and swung his palms forward accurately. The force in his palms was not leaking out, tearing the air at an extraordinary speed, making a strange sound of chirping geese, and it was as if he was about to shoot out a door.
It is not very similar to the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, but it also focuses on fierce and unrivaled palm techniques.
I saw two palms facing each other, one person fighting two people. The same sharpness and ruthlessness, the same strength, but Jiang Wen used a completely different and subtle move. There were endless subtle moves in his swings. In an instant,
There was a difference in this duel.
Jiang Wen's five fingers were like knives, and just looking at the palm of his hand stirred up waves of energy. If his current internal strength wasn't so poor, the arms of the two people on the opposite side would have been cut off.
The Chang brothers, who were extremely lucky, were once again defeated. Jiang Wen used the iron palm technique to knock him back three meters away. It was not until their master boldly stepped forward to support them that the two of them could stop their retreat.
"Stand back and let me come."
Chang Qingzi stepped forward with a solemn expression, and Jiang Wen naturally faced each other with swords. He wanted to test the strength of the man in front of him who was "the best in swordsmanship west of the Three Gorges." If the opponent's attack was a sword that was as fast as loose and fast, then Jiang Wen would
He took care of him smoothly.
"Why……"
But Chang Qingzi stared at Jiang Wen for a long time, but did not draw his sword. Instead, he let out a long sigh, which made Jiang Wen stunned.
"...Taoist Priest Chang Qingzi, what kind of lion roaring skill do you have?"
Chang Qingzi stopped sighing with an embarrassed look and said slowly.
"Dao Zhang Jiang, I stopped you from going tonight because the enemy of our Qingcheng faction is hiding in this ghost alley. Our master and disciple have been guarding it for several days, and we really don't want you to wander into it by mistake."
As soon as he heard this tone, Jiang Wen knew that the fight was not going to work, so he simply tied the sword back to his waist.
"Taoist Priest Chang Qingzi, why is the Qingcheng Sect's great enemy in Fuzhou City?"
Chang Qingzi said without changing his expression, his posture was very awkward.
"Ten years ago, a thief sneaked into the Qingcheng sect and stole two secret martial arts of our sect. The master pursued him for a long time but was unable to bring him to justice. Finally, he died in depression. Before I die, I must do it.
This matter."
Approaching the eerie ghost alley, several people fell silent for different reasons.
Chang Qingzi said it implicitly, but the obvious meaning was that his master could not defeat the opponent, so that the thief was at large. He took a step back and became more and more angry, and finally made himself angry to death.
After this sect scandal was brought out, Jiang Wen also somewhat understood the other party's mentality.
"Taoist Priest Chang Qingzi, I know that it is not convenient to disclose martial arts secrets, so can you tell me a little bit about the identity of the other party? I am really curious."
Jiang Wen admitted very simply that I was just a gossip.
Changqingzi doesn’t cover up much either.
"The other party was unknown at first, but now he is also a notorious figure in the world. He even joined the White Lotus Sect and became the 'Red Sun Holy Child' in the sect..."
Jiang Wen was stunned for a while when he heard this familiar name.
Chang Qingzi thought that the other party was frightened. After all, the White Lotus Sect was secretive and cruel, and ordinary people in the world were not willing to provoke him. Hongyang Saint Child had a eccentric personality and killed people like crazy. It was reasonable for Jiang Wen to feel frightened.
This idea is correct to a certain extent - if the Hongyang Holy Child who was so dead on the Manting Peak that he could not even see his human form really came out of the alley to say hello, then Jiang Wen would be the first one to run away.
road people.
But Jiang Wen suddenly understood the origin of the authentic Taoist martial arts - Tianshi Danxifa - in the Hongyang Holy Child and the four stone lions of the Wuyi Sect!
By the way, the Iron Sand Palm used by Hongyang Holy Child to attack Yuan Ziyi was probably also derived from the Black Sand Palm of the Qingcheng Sect.
What's even more outrageous is that if Hong Yang Shengtong's method of practicing Tianshi Danxi Method is correct, then this Chang Qing Zi in the Ming and Qing Dynasties seems to be the same as the Chang Qing Zi in "The Swordsman".
Martial arts that are beneficial to future generations have led to entanglements in fate...
