After leaving Lin'an, Wang Liangyu went all the way north to the riverside.
Take a ferry and go up the river to Ezhou, then transfer to a ferry and enter the Han River.
After running all the way, half a month later, we arrived in Xiangyang.
In the world of Jin Yong's martial arts, Xiangyang is a very important place. In the future, Guo Jing and Huang Rong defend Xiangyang City and eventually both die for their country, which can be described as heroic.
In addition, the most famous one is the Dugu Sword Tomb outside Xiangyang City.
There are two more treasures hidden in the Dugu Sword Tomb, one is Dugu Qiufei's sword technique, and the other is the Bodhisattva Snake that can increase internal strength.
However, in the original novel, it is only said that the Dugu Sword Tomb is located in an unknown valley outside Xiangyang City, and if you search aimlessly, you will not find it in the Year of the Monkey, Horse and Moon.
Therefore, as soon as he entered the city, Wang Liangyu found some old hunters, asked them about the Bodhisattva Snake, and described the image of the Bodhisattva Snake to them.
The Bodhisattva snake has a faint golden light all over its body. It has horns on its head and walks like the wind.
The old hunters all shook their heads when they heard this: "Sir, you are talking about this snake, but I have never seen it before!"
Wang Liangyu was not surprised. He took out a handful of broken silver from his arms, played with it and said, "I hope the old gentleman can help with the search. If you get anything, you will be rewarded heavily!" After saying that, he put down another piece of broken silver and said, "This is the deposit.
!”
The old hunter immediately agreed, his old face unable to conceal his greed.
Wang Liangyu didn't say much, turned around and left Xiangyang City, continuing north.
In a corner of the Southern Song Dynasty, Xiangyang was the border between the two countries and the front line against the Jin Dynasty.
After leaving Xiangyang, we soon entered the Kingdom of Jin.
Zhongnan Mountain, we have to go north.
There were ruined villages and towns along the way, with countless Song people fleeing for their lives, and countless corpses lying in the weeds beside the road.
Along the way, Wang Liangyu was almost killed, and none of the golden soldiers who burned, killed, and looted were left behind.
Unknowingly, Wang Liangyu came to the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
Wang Liangyu was about to move forward when suddenly a baby cried in his ears.
Following the sound, Wang Liangyu saw a baby wrapped in rags in the grass beside the mountain road. His whole body was blue and blue from the cold, and he was crying loudly.
Seeing this, Wang Liangyu quickly picked up the baby, wrapped it in clothes and held it in his arms. He gently coaxed the baby while looking around.
After searching for a long time, there was no sign of anyone!
"This kid has a hard life!" Wang Liangyu sighed softly, hesitating a little.
The villages and towns at the foot of the mountain are all dilapidated and deserted. It may not be easy to find someone to adopt this baby. The nearest village is still half a day away!
Just when he was anxious, Wang Liangyu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought that there was an ancient tomb sect in Zhongnan Mountain, headed by a woman, and he must be willing to take in this child.
While he was talking, Wang Liangyu couldn't help but look down at the baby in his arms.
"It's just right. I don't think there is any reason for the Ancient Tomb Sect to reject you!" Wang Liangyu reached out and touched it. The little girl who stopped crying because her body temperature gradually recovered started laughing.
While he was talking, Wang Liangyu's steps were not slow at all, just like an ape playing in the mountains, lively and carefree.
After running for a long time, when the new moon rose from the horizon, Wang Liangyu turned around a mountain road and saw a huge round flat in front of him, surrounded by mountains. There was a large pool at the foot of the mountain. The water reflected the moon, and the silver light shone.
There were three or five Taoists guarding the area.
Looking further inside, there is a loft.
Wang Liangyu guessed that it was the Chongyang Palace, but the purpose of his trip was not pure, so it was not easy to expose his whereabouts.
Looking down at his arms, Wang Liangyu was about to speak when he suddenly saw that the little girl whose eyes had been closed before now had her round eyes open and was looking at him curiously.
"Little one, don't make any noise later!" Wang Liangyu couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, stretched out his hand to play with the little girl's pink face, and whispered in a low voice.
The little girl seemed to understand, opening her mouth and babbling.
Wang Liangyu laughed, tightly wrapped his clothes, jumped up, and dived along the ridge towards the depths of Chongyang Palace.
The Ancient Tomb Sect is located deep in the Chongyang Palace and is a forbidden area of the Chongyang Festival.
A moment later, Wang Liangyu found a large tomb on the mountain behind Chongyang Palace. On the tombstone were engraved five characters, "Tomb of the Living Dead."
“We found the right place!”
Wang Liangyu gently patted the girl in his arms, flew to the tomb, stretched out his hand and patted the tombstone, and shouted loudly: "Wang Liangyu, who is a junior student, asks to see the senior from the ancient tomb!"
Unfortunately, no one cared about it for a long time.
Wang Liangyu had no choice but to say: "This junior picked up a baby girl at the foot of the mountain, but couldn't find anyone to adopt her, so she urgently had to ask the seniors from the ancient tomb to take her in!"
At the right time, the baby girl in her arms suddenly started crying, and the shrill voice was particularly loud in the dark night.
After a while, the tombstone was opened, and a woman with a cold face walked out of the tomb, followed by a mother-in-law who described the vicissitudes of life.
"Junior Wang Liangyu, I have met the senior Tombs!" Wang Liangyu glanced at the two of them and guessed that this cold woman should be the second generation head of the Tombs sect, Lin Chaoying's personal maid, and that mother-in-law was Granny Sun.
The cold woman glanced at Wang Liangyu indifferently, and then looked into Wang Liangyu's arms.
Seeing this, Wang Liangyu carefully stretched out his hand to hug the girl in his arms, and said, "I picked her up at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain. She was only wrapped in this rag, and her body was blue and blue from the cold." She paused.
, and added, "I originally wanted to find a good family to adopt in the villages and towns at the foot of the mountain, but when I came, the villages and towns were almost deserted. I had no choice but to come here to try my luck!"
While talking, Wang Liangyu handed over the baby girl.
The cold woman did not take over, but Granny Sun behind her hurriedly stepped forward and gently hugged the girl. Listening to the girl's shrill cries, she felt heartbroken: "How long have you been hungry for?" As she said,
He turned to look at the cold woman and said sadly, "Girl, why don't I feed her something first?"
"What is your purpose in coming to Zhongnan Mountain?" The cold woman did not answer. She looked up at Wang Liangyu and asked in a cold voice.
Wang Liangyu hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "I don't know the secrets of internal energy. I heard that the Quanzhen Sect is the authentic Taoist sect, so I came here to visit!"
"You want to steal a master?!" The cold woman was startled when she heard this, and there was a hint of pleasure on her expressionless face.
Because of Lin Chaoying, she had no good impression of Wang Chongyang and Quanzhen.
Hearing this, Wang Liangyu quickly waved his hands and explained: "I used to practice external skills. I didn't understand internal skills, adjust my breath, meditate, and how internal energy circulates around the sky. So I came to Quanzhen Sect for further training. I only learned the basics of internal skills. It's not considered stealing."
division!"
The cold woman was stunned again, said nothing, turned around and walked into the ancient tomb.
Grandma Sun held the girl in her arms, smiled kindly at Wang Liangyu, and followed her into the ancient tomb.
When the two of them disappeared into the deep tomb passage, the tombstone at the door was quickly closed, and it was a tight seal, leaving no trace at all.
After solving a major incident, Wang Liangyu turned around and entered Chongyang Palace again, found an unoccupied room and stayed there.
The next day, early in the morning.
Wang Liangyu woke up early and followed a group of young Taoist priests to a main hall. He originally thought he was going to teach martial arts, but he didn't expect it to be an early morning lesson.
Listening to a group of Taoist priests reciting Taoist scriptures, Wang Liangyu almost fell asleep while reciting the scriptures and fell from the beam.
After finally waiting until the morning class was over, a group of Taoist priests went to have breakfast again, and then went to practice martial arts.
However, when I walked around, I was either practicing swordsmanship or boxing.
There are also people who are meditating silently, presumably practicing internal strength.
But people practice silently, so how can Wang Liangyu further his studies?
After turning around, Wang Liangyu's face was full of disappointment: "It seems that I won't be able to complete my studies in a day or two!"
Thinking of this, Wang Liangyu turned around and left Chongyang Palace and returned to the vicinity of the Ancient Tomb Sect.
After finding a place nearby and building a wooden house, Wang Liangyu was ready for a protracted war.
In the ancient tomb, Grandma Sun came to the cold woman with her baby girl in her arms, and whispered: "Girl, that man came back last night and built a wooden house near the ancient tomb. It seems that he wants to stay for a long time!"
After a pause, he glanced at the girl in his arms and said hesitantly, "Does he have some conspiracy?"
The cold woman frowned slightly. Thinking of Wang Liangyu's words last night, she muttered: "Never mind him!" After saying that, she turned to look at the baby in Grandma Sun's arms and asked, "How is she?"
"After drinking royal jelly, I was finally saved!" Grandma Sun heard the sound, looked at the cold woman, and said gratefully, "Thanks to the girl for protecting her with her true energy, otherwise she would not have survived!"
"In this case, she will be a disciple of the ancient tomb from now on, and let Granny Sun take care of her for the time being!"
Grandma Sun was overjoyed when she heard this and agreed repeatedly.
On the other side, after Wang Liangyu built the wooden house, he entered the Chongyang Palace.
After staying until late at night, Wang Liangyu ran back with a disappointed look on his face.
After falling asleep, Wang Liangyu entered the Chongyang Palace again the next day.
One day later, Wang Liangyu returned without success again.
On the third day, it was still the same.
On the fourth day, Wang Liangyu finally heard a few words about the cultivation of internal energy, which was revealed by a third-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect when he was teaching his disciples.
Unfortunately, just a few words and practicing inner strength with Wang Liangyu did not help.
"Could it be that internal strength teaching is one-to-one?" Wang Liangyu couldn't help but wonder, thinking of the "harvest" in the past few days.
Fortunately, on the fifth day, a big lesson appeared, which broke Wang Liangyu's guess.
This was a large class on internal strength instruction, with three and four generations of Quanzhen disciples present. The person sitting at the head as the teacher was an old Taoist, presumably one of the Seven Quanzhen disciples.
Wang Liangyu did not dare to get too close and hid far away for fear of being spied by the Seven Quanzhen Sons.
Fortunately, Wang Liangyu's ears were sensitive enough and he could hear clearly.
There is a difference between being taught by a teacher and not being taught by a teacher. Wang Liangyu benefited a lot from the teachings of one of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen.
For the next month, Wang Liangyu would go to Chongyang Palace every day.
Under the intermittent teachings of the second and third generation disciples of the Quanzhen Sect, Wang Liangyu gained a little bit of inner strength.
From the Quanzhen Seventh Son, Wang Liangyu finally confirmed that internal strength and true energy actually refer to the same thing.
In addition, whether it is internal or external skills, you can actually cultivate true energy, and the true energy produced by different martial arts will have different characteristics. For example, the true energy of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is famous for its fierceness.
The true energy of the Nine Yang Divine Art can be generated by itself and is immune to all poisons.
However, external skills work from the outside to the inside, and the movement of true energy must comply with the movements of external skills. Therefore, the meridians that are tempered and opened are limited. This results in the internal strength of external skills practitioners having an upper limit, and it is difficult to improve after practicing to a certain level.
If you want to make a breakthrough, you can only contact other external skills and temper and open up the meridians.
But in this way, different external skills will produce different Qi, and different Qi have different characteristics. Unless the characteristics are compatible, there is a risk of going crazy if you are not careful.
Therefore, even Hong Qigong, who only practiced external martial arts all his life, only practiced four external martial arts, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Dog Fighting Stick Technique, Xiaoyaoyou and Fuhu Fist. Later, he lost his martial arts skills and retired from Guo Jing.
Learn the Nine Yin Sutra everywhere.
Of course, the above mentioned are most of the external skills, White Ape Sword Technique is no longer included in this list!
White Ape's Taoism is natural, and White Ape's sword skills never have fixed moves. Therefore, if you practice to the extreme, you can unblock hundreds of meridians, and eventually form a great cycle of heaven and earth, reaching the realm where true energy is endless.
The White Ape Sword Technique was originally Wang Liangyu's best cultivation technique. Unfortunately, Wang Liangyu's talent was limited and he did not have hundreds of years to reach the realm of the White Ape.
With no choice, Wang Liangyu wanted to find another way during the Spring and Autumn Period.
Returning to internal strength, it is different from external strength. To practice internal strength, you need to open up and connect the eight meridians from the eight meridians to the two meridians of Ren and Du, and then carry the true energy to circulate around the sky. In this way, the meridians and the physical body are fed back. This is a process from the inside to the outside.
.
Of course, there are levels of internal strength.
The more top-level internal energy, the more meridians will be opened and tempered, and the more meridians will be penetrated, the smoother the external energy will be performed.
After mastering it, you can develop the Nine-Yang Divine Skill, which can be used by all martial arts schools in the world. This is the principle.
The same principle applies to the inner strength and mental methods of the great sects.
The internal skills of these sects are highly compatible with the external skills of the sect. The Qi cultivated in one internal skill can be adapted to multiple external skills. Martial arts training is naturally twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, the disciples of sects with internal skills and mental methods are stronger than those without internal skills.
The sect of Dharma will be superior.
Wang Liangyu thought about what he had gained recently, and couldn't help but feel a little scared. He was glad that he did not practice external skills such as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms after he came to this world. Otherwise, if the true energy of many external skills filled the body, big problems would occur.
After being frightened, Wang Liangyu felt endless worries in her heart.
Nowadays, Wang Liangyu now has the true energy in his body that he has cultivated with the White Ape Sword Technique, as well as the true energy that he has gained from practicing the Jintai Boxing Manual in the Marvel era. If he continues to practice the Nine Yang Divine Art, when the three strands of true energy become entangled again, what will happen?
Not going crazy?
"Could it be that I can only fight the White Ape Sword Technique to the death?" Wang Liangyu couldn't decide what to pay attention to and muttered, "Or maybe I can learn from Hong Qigong and destroy my internal strength first, and then rebuild it again?"
In fact, it is not impossible to defeat the White Ape swordsmanship to death.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, Wang Liangyu was worried that he would not live long enough to achieve the perfection of White Ape's swordsmanship, and he was also worried that he would not have the natural talent that day.
But now, Wang Liangyu has swallowed the longevity pill and extended his life by two hundred years. He will definitely be able to extend his life in the future. If he insists on using the White Ape sword technique, he may not be able to catch up with the White Ape in time.
However, Wang Liangyu was really reluctant to give up internal strength like this. The help of internal strength to martial arts practice cannot be ignored.
Wang Liangyu is still very envious of the characteristics of the Nine Yang Magic.
When hesitating, Wang Liangyu decided to find someone for consultation.
Thinking of this, Wang Liangyu stood up and went straight to the ancient tomb.
Knocking on the tombstone and calling the door.
After a while, Grandma Sun opened the tombstone, looked at Wang Liangyu in surprise, and asked, "Master, what can I do?"
"I have some questions about martial arts, and I would like to ask the seniors of the Ancient Tomb Sect to teach me!" Wang Liangyu asked straightforwardly.
Grandma Sun was startled when she heard this, and looked at Wang Liangyu in surprise. Just as she was about to reply, from the deep tomb passage behind her, the current leader of the Ancient Tomb Sect floated out like a ghost.
"It seems that you succeeded in stealing the master!" The head of the ancient tomb said calmly as if he was looking Wang Liangyu up and down.
"Wang Liangyu has met senior!" Wang Liangyu saw this and did not respond. He bowed and asked immediately, "May I ask senior, how do the external Qi and internal Qi blend?"
The head of the ancient tomb had a look of astonishment on his face, and Granny Sun on the side had a similar expression.
Neither of them are martial arts wizards. They practice martial arts according to Lin Chaoying's teachings. They first practice some basic martial arts of the sect. Once they have a foundation, they will learn internal martial arts. Then they will practice internal and external martial arts. This is also the practice of most martial arts sects.
process.
After all, not everyone is Hong Qigong, and not everyone has internal skills. If they have better and faster internal skills, they will have to practice external skills throughout their lives.
There are very few people like Wang Liangyu who can develop a strong body of Qi through practicing external martial arts.
More convenient and faster internal strength is the choice of most martial arts practitioners.
Therefore, upon hearing Wang Liangyu's question, both the head of the ancient tomb and Granny Sun looked at Wang Liangyu with puzzled faces.
Wang Liangyu coughed lightly and explained in detail again.
This time, both the head of the ancient tomb and Granny Sun understood it, but neither of them could explain Wang Liangyu's confusion. Their understanding of martial arts practice was still at the level of "knowing it but not knowing why"!
Wang Liangyu looked disappointed when he saw this, and couldn't help but secretly sigh: "It would be great if there was an internal skill that could take in all the elements and integrate the true energy of each family!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Wang Liangyu suddenly woke up and his eyes lit up. Isn't this the Beiming Magic Skill?
In the world of metal martial arts, there are many magical skills. In terms of internal skills, Beiming Divine Skill can definitely be ranked among the top three.
The biggest function of the Beiming Magic is not to absorb people's internal energy, but to absorb all kinds of energy into the sea. It can absorb any true energy into the body and use it for one's own use. Isn't this what Wang Liangyu wants most now?
"At this point in time, the Beiming Magic Technique should have been lost!" Wang Liangyu reacted in a flash, with a look of disappointment on his face, and secretly prayed in his heart, "It would be perfect if we could travel to the Eight Tribes of Heaven and Dragon!"
