The dream of a lonely hero

Lu Xingde, the"Big Belly Amitabha" of the Four Heroes, watched as his third brother Yan Shuda became more and more stiff as he talked. He stuffed his stomach and shook his fan, then stood up to smooth things over,"Haha! The way the Taoist repays his kindness is quite unique. My third brother is reckless, don't blame me! But what I said is The reason is not rough. Yan Yun, who you repay your kindness by accepting as a disciple, is the nephew of my eighth brother. For example, my eighth brother has some good intentions and accepts you as a disciple of Taihe Sect. Martial Arts Master, are you willing? To put it lightly".

Yan Shuda said impatiently:"It's easy to say poaching, and worst to say, you bully me for being incompetent as the 'Eight Immortals'. I really don't understand this common sense after traveling around the world for so many years! Are you just provoking by repaying a favor and showing the martial arts world that you are provoking me?" The Eight Immortals are all idiots, and their apprentices and nephews all worship under the Taihe Sect. You are taking this opportunity to become famous again, and your intentions are so sinister!"

Wu Tianzhen explained again:"I am eager to repay my kindness and do not consider it carefully, but I have no intention of looking down on all the heroes."

Yan Shuda was sensible and said:"Isn't this a lack of consideration? What else is it if it's not looking down on my 'Eight Immortals'?"

Wu Tianzhen repeatedly gave in, while Yan Shuda pressed forward step by step. Wu Tianzhen was so angry that his face turned livid and his eyebrows stood up. He clenched the tea cup in his left hand with a squeaking sound. Then he let go and a pile of porcelain cup crumbs the size of peas fell on the table:"As you said, what can I do?"？

"The"Eight Immortals" were all secretly surprised when they saw this.

Yan Shuda was furious:"Finally told the truth!" Today, the Sa family wants to see whether Wu Tianzun, the 'Tianzun of the Clouds' or the 'Tianzun of the Earth'!" He took out a two-foot-long bronze fishing drum and a three-foot-long bronze bamboo slip from his waist and jumped out of the front hall. He was steady in the center of the courtyard.

Wu Tianzhen saw that Yan Shuda was struggling and couldn't do anything."Today I can experience the extraordinary skills of the 'Eight Immortals'. It's a worthwhile trip." But there is a condition. If Pindao loses, he will never accept Yan Yun as his disciple. If Pindao wins, what do you say, Shang Daxia?" Shang Yuanzhong saw that the two sides had reached a point of tit-for-tat confrontation. Only when Pindao won The result was revealed in Kungfu:"Master Wu, if you defeat Yan Yun, I will be your disciple."

Wu Tianzhen said:"One word".

Shang Yuanzhong said:"A horse is hard to catch.""

"Empty words"

"High-five as an oath."

Wu Tianzhen and Shang Yuanzhong each extended their right hands to strike each other.

Wu Tianzhen said:"I have no ill intentions when Meng Lang comes here. I hurt your house by competing here. I can't afford it. It's better to come here." In the wheat field at the east end of Zhuangzi, are you fighting alone, or two, three, or eight together?"Pindao is waiting in the wheat field" and jumped up onto the courtyard wall. The courtyard wall was more than ten feet away from the house. The"Eight Immortals" were all secretly amazed when they saw Wu Tianzhen's light skills.

Wu Tianzhen's words gave the"Eight Immortals" time to think about it. The"Eight Immortals" are really in a dilemma. No one is Wu Tianzhen's opponent one on one. If all eight of them fight together, no matter whether they win or lose, they will destroy the"Eight Immortals" brand. Miao Yanjun, the"Falling Leaves Scholar" of the Five Heroes, was born with a lot of strategy. After thinking for a moment, he said,"Brother, let's fight in rounds. Our eight brothers are divided into four groups, two in each group. Each group only fights Wu Laodao for twenty rounds. After the four groups fight, the competition ends. Within twenty rounds, one group wins. Let us win, and if one group loses, we will admit defeat."

Shang Yuanzhong thought for a while and said:"It has to be like this, but what are the chances of winning?"

Yan Shuda was not convinced:"Brother, don't let others' ambitions destroy your own prestige. He doesn’t have three heads and six arms, so why are you afraid of him?"

Miao Yanjundao knew that Wu Tianzhen was by no means an easy person:"Third brother, the eldest brother is not talking about being afraid of anyone. Who have my eight brothers been afraid of since they were born? Although today's battle is not a life and death duel, it is related to our reputation. If we lose to Wu Tianzhen, we must not be careless about how to gain a foothold in the martial arts world in the future. Brother, how about we do this? The second brother Qian and the third brother Yan are in a group, the fourth brother Lu and the sixth brother Daiying are in a group, the seventh sister and I are in a group, and the eldest brother and the eighth brother Yuntong are in a group. They are not complementary. No matter how sophisticated the Taoist priest is, I'm afraid he won't be able to gain any advantage."

Shang Yuanzhong knew that his third brother Yan Shuda had a fiery temper and didn't care about it. He said to his fifth brother Miao Yanjun:"It's a pity that our 'Eight Immortals Making the Sea' formation is useless."

Miao Yanjun:"The 'Eight Immortals in the Sea' formation consists of eight people and two people. We have also practiced it on weekdays. Although it has shortcomings, it is still powerful. Each group should be able to withstand Wu Tianzhen for twenty rounds. If they perform well, Well, there is still hope of defeating the Taoist priest within eighty rounds."

The Xie family was originally a strong person. She was known as hardworking and virtuous in the Yan family in Bo Township, and she was even more hardworking when she stayed in the Shang family. The Ma family, son, daughter and" The"Eight Immortals" took over all the sewing work. Ma was afraid that Xie would be tired and insisted not to let her do it. Xie was stubborn and Ma couldn't stand her, so she had to let Xie do it. Xie's ingenuity and good needlework were loved by everyone in the Shang family.

One day, Mr. Xie was doing needlework in her room."No - no, Aunt Yan, there's a fight, there's a fight"! Shang Feiyan ran in shouting.

Xie looked at the panicked Feiyan and asked hurriedly:"Child, what's the matter? Tell me slowly."

Shang Feiyan gasped:"Auntie, my father, uncles and a Taoist priest got into a fight."

"What's the matter"？

"In order to fight for Yanyun, they"

""What?" Xie asked, fearing that she heard wrongly,"Zheng Yanyun""

"Um! Zheng Yanyun - Become an apprentice"

"Where did the fight start?"？

""Wheat field".

Shang Feiyan heard the conversation between Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" in the front hall of Guiyun Village outside the door, and hurriedly looked for Mr. Xie. Upon hearing this, Ms. Xie felt uneasy, worried about what her son Yanyun would do He left his needlework and ran to the school, grabbed Yan Yun and ran towards the wheat field.

He returned to Yunzhuang to fight the wheat field.

Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" were killing each other inextricably.

Seeing Wu Tianzhen fluttering his robe sleeves in the breeze, The body technique is soft and graceful, the footwork is light and steady, the palm technique is stretched and soft, the movement is like a spiritual snake, the strength is like a silkworm cocoon, the heart and breath are dependent on each other, the flash is skillful, the softness is strong, the needle is hidden in the cotton, the strength is transformed into softness, Use strength and strength. This is the unique skill of Taihe Sect,"Huntian Tai Chi Palm Technique"""The"Eight Immortals' Sea Formation" has been famous in the world for a long time, Wu Tianzhen dared not to take it lightly and not use his special skills.

Before Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" began to compete, Wu Tianzhen thought to himself that this trip was only for the sake of friendship, not enmity. To reduce the damage to both sides to the minimum, it is recommended not to compete with weapons but only with fists and kicks. The"Eight Immortals" went into battle in twos, fighting on wheels. After a fierce battle, Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" ended in a draw. The three heroes"Slim Face Lei Jun" Yan Shuda was still unwilling to give in and asked Wu Tianzhen to learn the power of the"Eight Immortals Making a Sea Formation". Shang Yuanzhong and other heroes were also in the ascendant. After discussion, they decided that Wu Tianzhen could not defeat Wu Tianzhen within ten rounds of the"Eight Immortals Making a Sea Formation". admit defeat

"The"Eight Immortals Haohai Formation" is by no means a rumor in the world. Although it also evolved from Wuhou's Bagua Formation, it is completely different from the"Eight Ghosts Suotian Formation". For example, military academies all learn"Sun Tzu's Art of War", but their actual combat applications are quite different. The same is true for the Wuhou Bagua array. The diagram of the Bagua array is dead, but how to deduce it is alive. It can be said that benevolence sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom.

""Eight Immortals" are all concentrating on making the most of the"Eight Immortals making sea formation" and"holding sand to fill the sea.""、""Hei Feng Nie Hai" pressed forward with every move, Yan Shuda's fist was like a shooting star and as powerful as a galloping horse, one move"shattered the mountain into the sea" and one punch rushed towards Wu Tianzhen's heart. Wu Tianzhen used the move"Push the boat along with the current" to avoid it with the right palm of his body. The fist was close to Yan Shuda's right arm and was lightly lifted. Yan Shuda was taken away a foot away and staggered almost falling. The"Huntian Tai Chi Palm Technique" of the Taihe Sect emphasizes braking with calmness, waiting for work with ease, and then developing Come first, fight with wits but not with strength. If the opponent does not understand the secret, the more fierce the attack, the less advantageous it will be. Take advantage of the situation and use the strength to fight. Immediately afterwards, Shang Yuanzhong flew into the air. The move"Strike Huashan" slashed Wu Tianzhen's head with both palms. Wu Tianzhen used the"Old Lord to seal the door" to resolve it. Shang Yuanzhong's martial arts was so great that he could change his moves even while hanging in mid-air. He hit Wu Tianzhen with his"Black Dragon Out of the Cave" move. Wu Tianzhen felt deep in his heart. Wu Tianzhen saw that the oncoming force was too fierce and too fast to be resolved instantly, so he immediately"turned around" to avoid it. Qian Zhuotong's"Sweeping Wind Sweeping Fallen Leaves" swept his legs and ran towards Wu Tianzhen from three directions, and Xiao Daiying jumped up The"scissor kick" forced Wu Tianzhen to hit the three-way, Lu Xingde leaped in the air and"forced to split Huashan" and forced Wu Tianzhen to chop off the forehead with his right foot. Shang Yuanzhong, Qian Zhuotong, Xiao Daiying, and Lu Xingde used consecutive and fast moves to"turn the river and stir the sea.""、""Crossing the mountains and crushing the sea", this is the extremely fierce formation of the"Eight Immortals Making Sea Formation". Wu Tianzhen used the pinnacle skill of"Huntian Tai Chi Palm Technique""Refining Stone to Mend the Sky""、"Qionglian body protection"、""White ape moves" to resolve"turning rivers and seas""、"Crossing the mountains and pressing the sea", he broke into a cold sweat. Seeing that he could not win against Wu Tianzhen, Shang Yuanzhong was furious, and planned to make a desperate move to use the trump card of the"Eight Immortals Making a Sea Formation""Lu Lian Crossing the Sea". Is this the"Eight Immortals Making a Sea Formation"? When the fish dies, the net is broken, and he shouts to the brothers,"Lu Lian is crossing the sea." When the brothers heard the eldest brother's instructions, they looked very attentive and moved to change the formation. Originally, the"Eight Immortals" andAlthough he thought innocently, he didn't want to make a grudge, but due to inertia, he refused to admit defeat and couldn't help but escalate from a martial arts contest to a life-and-death contest. Wu Tianzhen also noticed from the expressions of the"Eight Immortals" that a storm was coming. At this point, Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" have both reached the forefront of the storm. They are riding a tiger and it is difficult to get off. As a result, one of the two tigers will be injured or both will be injured.

"stop! stop! Stop it, I beg you, I beg you! Please! -" Mr. Xie shouted hoarsely. Wu Tianzhen and the"Eight Immortals" heard the shouts and jumped out of the circle and put away their moves. Yan Shuda stepped forward and complained:"I'm a woman, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Tianzhen stepped forward and gave him Xie saluted:"Supreme Lord! Dare you ask the high school?"

Mr. Xie hurriedly replied:"I am the Xie family of Yanmen, and Yan Yun is my son."

Wu Tianzhen bowed and saluted again:"Mrs. Yan has taught her son well, making him chivalrous and courageous at a young age. People are in trouble and saving people is in trouble. If it weren't for your son's rescue, Pindao would have died long ago. Please accept Pindao's worship."

"It can't be done, it can't be done! It is natural to save others when they are in danger, so there is no need for a big gift!"

Yan Shuda said to Wu Tianzhen:"If the red tape is sour, how can we calculate our competition?"

Wu Tianzhen replied:"The 'Eight Immortals of Yanzhao' is indeed well-deserved. , the 'Eight Immortals Making Sea Formation' really learned the lesson. Let's do this, you will still teach Yan Yun's martial arts."

Yan Shuda interjected:"Then it's time for you, Master Wu, to return to the Immortal Mountain."

Wu Tianzhen said,"How can Master Yan just leave without repaying his life-saving grace?"？

"The Eight Immortals were all shocked when they heard this.

Yan Shuda asked:"What else do you want?""？

"You taught Yan Yun martial arts, while the poor Taoist taught him literature."

Yan Shuda seemed to have misheard,"What the hell! You, you are from Wu Lao Taoism, haha! Listen clearly - my nephew doesn't study the Tao Te Ching and he doesn't know how to do anything."！

"Yan Sanxia, ​​I misunderstood, Pindao taught him the Four Books and Five Classics."

Yan Shuda laughed mockingly,"Haha! Just you, just you"！

"To be honest, Pindao was the second best person in the Xiande period of the previous dynasty." He casually took out a fist-sized Tianhuang stone from his arms. It is clean and moist, has a rich color, is smooth and translucent, and is actually of the highest quality. An inch of Tianhuang and an inch of gold are priceless.. Passed it to Yan Shuda.

Yan Shuda took it and looked at it. It was engraved with the words"Wu Yuanheng, the second in the civil and military rankings in the first year of Dazhou Xiande" in regular script, and asked:"Wu Yuanheng, could it be you?""？

"It is the name of a poor Taoist layman"

"Don't try to deceive others! Do we have people who can read and write? Fifth brother, fifth brother,

Miao Xiucai takes the test on him." Miao Yanjun, the"Falling Leaf Scholar" of the Five Heroes, saw that his third brother asked him to test Wu Tianzhen's literary talent, so he gave Wu Tianzhen a question:"Master Wu, please ask"Mencius——" Gongsun Chou》"

Wu Tianzhen thought about it for a moment and opened his mouth:"'Gongsun Chou asked: Master, I was on the road to Qi. Can the achievements of Guan Zhong and Yanzi be restored? Mencius said: I am a native of Qi, and I only know Guan Zhong and Yanzi. Or ask Zeng Xi said,"Which one is wiser, my son or Zi Lu?" Zeng Xi said.

Yan Shuda couldn't understand the text and became upset when he heard it:"What the hell? Don't read it! Is Miao Xiucai and Wu Laodao right?"

Miao Yanjun admired Wu Tianzhen. Wu Tianzhen was a strange person and versatile in both civil and military affairs. He said to Yan Shuda:"Third brother, what the martial artist recited is correct."

Shang Yuanzhong also deeply admired Wu Tianzhen's talents and learning. He was sincere in repaying his kindness by imparting knowledge. If he did not follow his wishes, it would appear that the"Eight Immortals" were too unkind."Since the martial arts master has such good intentions, it is Yan Yun's blessing. Yun'er! Why don’t you come over and become a disciple?"

Yan Yun walked up to Wu Tianzhen and hesitated:"Master Taoist, I'm stupid, very stupid. I can't recite an article in two days. Don't - don't teach me. If you don't learn well, your third uncle will laugh at you.". Xie and the"Eight Immortals" looked unhappy when they heard this and thought: This child Taimu actually told the truth.

When Wu Tianzhen saw Yan Yun, he loved to caress Yan Yun's head, and said with a pleasant expression:"Oh! This is not stupid. I am as old as you and I can't recite an article in ten days."

After that, Wu Tianzhen officially accepted Yan Yun as his disciple and taught him literature. Wu Tianzhen gave the field yellow stone to Shang Yuanzhong for his own expenses, but Shang Yuanzhong refused to accept it. Wu Tianzhen insisted on sending it to Shang Yuanzhong, but Shang Yuanzhong refused. Shang Yuanzhong specially prepared a separate courtyard for Wu Tianzhen and Yan Yun as Yan Yun's school. Yan Yun practiced writing with Wu Tianzhen on both days, and practiced martial arts with the"Eight Immortals" on one day.

Yanyun Academy.

Wu Tianzhen asked Yan Yun kindly:"Yun'er, why are you studying?"

Yan Yun clenched his fists and his eyes were filled with anger,"Avenging my father and my second uncle. They were both killed by the corrupt and ruthless official Jin Huarong."

Wu Tianzhen was confused:"Should we learn martial arts to take revenge?"

Yan Yun:"You can't avenge yourself by learning martial arts, my mother said"

"What"？

"My mother said that Jin Huarong is the official of the imperial court. If you kill him, you will offend the imperial court and you will violate the royal law. If you violate the royal law, you will be punished and the Zhulian family will be punished."

Wu Tianzhen thought a little:"Reading can Can you get revenge?"

Yan Yun was very determined,"Yes! In studying, if you are promoted to Jinshi or Zhuangyuan, you can become an official, a high official, a bigger official than the dog official Jin Huarong, and then use the court's laws to peel off the dog official. Pi, chop off that dog official's head to pay homage to the souls of his father and second uncle."

"oh! Then why are you learning kung fu from Uncle Shang and the others?"？

"revenge"

"revenge"？

"Yes, revenge! My grandparents, brothers and sisters, as well as hundreds of Yanjiazhuang teachers Yan Gang, Yan Zhao, Yan Hu, Yan Ye and Zhu were all killed by the barbarians. Before he died, my father said, 'Kill the slaves! Defend the country and protect the family'. I want to learn martial arts well and take revenge!"Revenge"! Yan Yun waved his fist passionately and angrily

"good! A good boy, if he has ambition, he will definitely be able to take revenge."

"But, but, I'm so useless"

"No nonsense! The earth does not produce useless trees, and the sky does not produce useless people."

"I can never recite it"

"what reason"？

"I'm afraid, afraid of Yan Feng and Shang Quan's jokes, afraid of Teacher Hua's slap in the face, afraid of my mother being angry"

"Now that they are not here, what are you afraid of? Master will not punish you."？

"I'm afraid that if I don't learn well, my third uncle will laugh at my master for not being able to teach me well."

"Yuner! remember. If you are afraid of words, you will accomplish nothing. As long as you work hard, there's nothing you can't learn"！

"Master, am I really stupid? You taught me for a long time and I still can’t memorize it."

"There are no stupid children in this world. As long as you study hard with the master, if you can’t do it once, if you try it again, you will definitely memorize it."
