Behind Xiangma Town, there is a stretch of mountains.
Lingben has no name. It was only because bandits gathered after the town was completed that it was called "Qiangren Ling". The meaning is very clear. Strongmen are infested here, so please be careful!
In the dense forest halfway up the mountain, there is a dilapidated ancient Buddhist temple. Most of the ruins have been swallowed up by the wilderness, leaving only the ruins of a few temples, broken walls, and overgrown vines and weeds.
Liu Shuzhu spent most of his childhood in this temple.
Robbers do not worship ghosts and gods, so they are naturally not afraid of the so-called Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. But even if they do not believe in them, few are willing to enter temples to seek bad luck.
He did the opposite and hid the small treasury that he thought was foolproof under the Buddhist niche in the main hall.
As everyone knows, more than half of the people in the town know the location of his treasure, but they are too lazy to find out. The gangster came here secretly before, inspected his newly snatched things, and put them away intact.
go back.
Before Liu Shuzhu, there had never been a child in Xiangma Town. It can be said that he grew up under the care of the gangsters and was the son of the entire Xiangma Town. The little lolita's name was 'Xuan'er', and both her parents came from afar to be famous.
The robber came. Two years ago, he encountered an accident while hunting in the mountains, and unfortunately both of them died.
Therefore, these two guys are both living treasures in the town and grew up in special circumstances.
The education they both received since childhood was based on the bandit theory of 'if you don't rob others, others will rob you'.
One is full of evil, and everything he goes by is like flying, causing even the gangsters to feel a headache and unable to guard against it; the other is weird, even though he has not learned all the words, he is already vying to do something.'
"Big Business" is a rare diligence in this industry. As he grows older, he will not be inferior to Liu Shuzhu.
The next day, Liu Shuzhu took the little Lolita, rode on the black tiger, and rushed to the ancient temple on the mountain early. He couldn't worry about his secret treasure, so he went to the mountain to 'inspect' it almost every day. When he felt like it, he would occasionally
He would light a fire in the temple and spend the night. With the black tiger by his side, no one else would have to worry about his safety.
The little loli sat on the black tiger's neck, swung her legs, and munched on a purple ginseng plant. Liu Shuzhu looked angry and distressed.
Thousand-year-old wild ginseng is the ultimate tonic. Ziyang ginseng is also known as the "king of ginseng". It contains extraordinary medicinal power. The amount of intake must be careful. The way she eats it is just like eating arsenic.
Even Liu Shuzhu, who boasts himself as ‘the number one martial arts wizard in Xiangma Town’, doesn’t dare to use it as a carrot to gnaw on!
But the little loli's physique is like a bottomless pit, as if nothing can be filled!
"What a waste of natural resources!" Liu Shuzhu gave her a slap in the face out of habit, "You lose money, the way you eat, no matter how much I steal, you won't be able to waste it!"
"Stingy little brat!" the little loli pouted angrily, "Without the support of others, you are just a walk-in. How can you show up so gorgeously like yesterday to show off? This is someone's fault.
You deserve it!" She said confidently, thinking that what she said made sense.
Without her, Liu Shuzhu would be just one person, also known as a "walker".
When bandits gather together, they become bandits, and when they are alone, they are called thieves. 'Giant bandit' and 'thieves', the former sounds comfortable. After having her, age is put aside for now, and the two of them can be regarded as brothers.
'Gangs commit crimes'.
As she spoke, she did not forget to break off a piece of the black tiger and threw it to the person sitting next to her.
The black tiger opened his mouth to catch it and swallowed it whole. He probably didn't bother to tell the difference between purple sun ginseng and ordinary mountain ginseng.
"You are so cruel to your own people, don't expect to be the leader in the future." Little Loli rubbed the back of her head, "You can't just let it go after beating Xuan'er, they will have to eat it soon!"
"How dare you talk back!" Liu Shuzhu couldn't quibble with her, so he had to give her another blow.
It is difficult to walk in the dense forest. If it were not for the black tiger, it would have taken at least half a day to climb to the location of the ancient temple.
The ancient temple is not small in scale, but its glory is now gone.
Most of the bricks and stones on the ground are missing corners, and half of the remaining main hall has collapsed. Fortunately, the remaining parts are still strong. After years of wind, sun, and soil erosion, there are no signs of collapse for the time being.
After arriving here, Liu Shuzhu hurriedly got off the tiger's back, ran into the main hall, moved the bluestone slab from the hiding place under the Buddhist niche, and checked whether all the private things were still there.
"Dahei, go hunt a yellow sheep and ask Brother Shuzhu to roast it for us to eat!"
The black tiger seemed to be able to understand human speech, and turned around and disappeared into the forest again. The little Lolita was beside Liu Shuzhu, rubbing her hands and feet, either asking him to taste this or to smell that, which made Liu Shuzhu helpless and had to take out some spiritual essence.
Send her away.
The hall is very empty, with a clay statue of Bodhisattva placed on the ground in the middle.
The clay sculpture is sitting cross-legged in the lotus position, with its chin and hands folded, its posture is elegant, and its body is dignified. It is about the same size as an ordinary person. The original red paint has almost fallen off, and there is only this statue in the entire hall.
The Bodhisattva statue was originally enshrined in the Buddhist niche, but was 'invited' to it by Liu Shuzhu. He usually used it as a stone lock and tossed it around to exercise his strength.
Buddhism is an ancient religion with a long inheritance and is rare in the world. Temples and temples are spread all over Zhongzhou.
Regarding the origin of this ancient temple, there are some rumors from nearby mountain people, saying that this ancient temple is very old, at least tens of thousands of years old. What's more, it is said that the time when the ancient temple was built can be traced back to
In ancient times, it was earlier than the entire Shengwu era.
The ancient years were an extremely majestic era, an ancient time when human sages dominated Zhongzhou. It was so long ago that it is almost impossible to verify.
Legend has it that at the end of ancient times, a Bodhisattva descended from the sky on a blood lotus and sat on the mountainside!
At that time, the bloody wind was raging, the blood waves surged into the sky, hundreds of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains were swallowed up by the sea of blood, and the entire Yongliang Mountains also sank to the bottom of the sea.
It was not until thousands of years later that the sea of blood slowly receded, and the earth regained its light. It took thousands more years, and when the remaining blood energy dissipated, all things were able to flourish, and vitality gradually recovered, but it could no longer be as vigorous as before.
The ancestors were in awe and believed that it was human sin that offended God and caused such a disaster.
Therefore, temples were built here, mountains were dug and roads were opened, cattle and horses were slaughtered every year, and souls were sacrificed in order to seek the mighty grace of the Buddha!
The Bodhisattva who sat here was called the Blood Bodhisattva by later generations!
Liu Shuzhu was still young when he first heard this legend. He was quite frightened at that time and he doubtfully asked the storyteller: "Do you believe it?"
"Whoever believes in it is a grandson!"
Zhongzhou is a vast territory with vast resources and vast resources. What is most indispensable is its miraculous legends.
The Yongliang Mountains have not been peaceful since ancient times. Things have gone through vicissitudes and changes over time. Even if there was a wild monk who wiped his neck and hanged himself here, and a woodcutter who collected firewood happened to see it, after so many years, the mystery has been exaggerated.
In his opinion, the greater possibility is that there was a group of ruthless bandits once entrenched on the mountainside, pretending to be monks as a cover, killing people and selling goods in the mountains. The bandits were so powerful and notorious that they even built temples to make things mysterious.
There is no way, the Luyang Mountain area produces thousand-year-old purple ginseng, antlers and striped beasts, and the sect is good at refining strange medicines; the cavalry of Yuewang City is invincible and is the best in the world; and the specialty of Yongliang Mountain is the bandits and robbers who fight against it.
They can't fight them all, they can't kill them all.
The ancients always liked to brag, and would record even the biggest events as the end of the world, so there was this absurd and uninhibited legend.
The same is true for today's people. In the market, it is said that the image of a ruffian is as high as a hill, and he is a Cyclops when he is born;
Fuyi was said to be a monster, transformed from a goat spirit in disguise.
The rights and wrongs among them can be seen as normal.
Although Liu Shuzhu didn’t know much about Buddhism, he had never heard of a ‘Blood Bodhisattva’ in Buddhism. Besides, Bodhisattvas are compassionate. Where have you ever seen cows and horses slaughtered as blood sacrifices to Bodhisattvas?
If the Bodhisattva knew this, he would be angry to death!
He had no respect for the Buddha at all. When he was ten years old, he had achieved some success in martial arts. He felt that the weight of this clay sculpture was just right to use to stretch his arm strength, so he committed the most treasonous and blasphemous act against the Buddha.
After more than three years, I have not accidentally dropped the clay sculpture. I have become worthy of the Bodhisattva, and I am not afraid of being punished by God.
Whenever the gangsters in the town asked him, he had his own theory - if the Bodhisattva was so petty and caressing with a little robber, what kind of Bodhisattva could he be? He might as well come to the town and join the gang together!
The clay sculpture weighs about two hundred kilograms.
People who practice martial arts can cultivate their own true energy internally, temper their muscles, bones, hair and skin externally, and assist with martial arts moves. They can burst out with combat power that ordinary people can't imagine. And strength is directly proportional to the cultivation level. After the cultivation level reaches a certain level, the martial artist's strength will be reduced.
It is long and can be divided into high and low levels accordingly.
A person with a strength of 100 kilograms is a junior martial artist; a person with a strength of 300 kilograms is an intermediate martial artist; a person with a strength of 500 kilograms has a higher status, strong Qi, and can be called the first-class in the world, that is, a high-level martial artist; and further up,
He is a strong person in the Bigu stage.
The inner strength of a strong person has entered the state of transformation, and his true energy can travel as he pleases, and he can gather his energy as a soldier, and his military force is extraordinary!
For example, the three leaders in Thieves Town all possess the Bigu Stage cultivation level. Tian Pi's fists and Xiao Fuyi's palms are both powerful enough to weigh a thousand kilograms, and Xie Erniang's weapons are also very heavy.
Despite her young age, Liu Shuzhu had already entered the beginner level at the age of eight, and was able to lift two hundred kilograms by the age of ten!
He has learned a lot of the unique skills of the tough gangsters, and by combining tricks here and there, plus the guidance of the three gang leaders and the secret elixirs and supplements, he may be able to enter the ranks of mid-level warriors in half a year.
"The great master of martial arts can almost fly through the air!"
This sentence is like a curse. Every time he hears it, Liu Shuzhu's blood surges.
It has always been his dream to walk on the clouds and walk on the heavenly road, with a sword and a loud song.
But the Grandmaster does not represent the end of martial arts. Above the Great Grandmaster, there is the Great Warrior Emperor, whose reputation is unparalleled in the world. His martial arts skills have shocked the past and present.
In the ancient times, saints and sages were all-powerful and glorious. After the ancient times, the saints and sages became extinct and the era of prosperity came, and Zhongzhou became the stage for the warrior emperors.
It can be said that every great emperor is a god-like existence!
