After Yan Wushi left, Shen Qiao was eager to open the acupoints, and worried that if Yan Wushi's current martial arts fell into the hands of Sang Jingxing, he didn't know how he would be tortured. After breaking out of his body, he only felt that his heart was suddenly hot like fire, and suddenly cold like falling into an ice cave.
On the one hand, there is a body that has been tortured alternately by ice and fire, and on the other hand, it is a mind that is free from the outside. She was running around, making her chest tight and nauseous, and her limbs numb.
The first half of Shen Qiao's life was smooth, and Xuandu Mountain was like a barrier, isolating all external dangers.
Not only him or the other people on Xuandu Mountain, even the ambitious Yu Ai, they have already half detached from this world, and it is inevitable to take a bit of innocence and naturalness when looking at people. However, because of Xuandu Mountain, Qifeng Pavilion stands in it. Ahead, to shield them from the wind and rain, everyone did not realize what the world under the mountain was like.
After that, Shen Qiao's life seemed to be split into two distinct sections by the battle of Banbufeng. The first half was as comfortable as the second half was turbulent.
He has experienced many situations where life is worse than death, and he has seen the good and evil of people in the world. In the end, there is no resentment left in his heart. Five's apprentices, along with the Bixiazong and others advancing and retreating together, and Yan Wushi, in order to lure Sang Jingxing away, the moment he parted with him in this way, all disappeared, and there was nothing left.
This thought was like a bit of ice water, slowly spreading out at the spiritual platform.
At that moment, the mind seemed to be completely separated from the body, from the Buddha statue in which he lived, from this small temple, and came to a vast world with no name and no words. And suddenly bright, like the sun and the moon hanging high, the mountains and seas are bright, the fish leaping over the waves, the rain shining on the stars.
The stagnant acupoints are slowly being cleared, and the true qi flowing through the whole body is like a warm current, which gradually restores the strength of the numb and painful limbs.
Shen Qiao felt as if he had turned into a small fish. With a flick of his tail, he jumped into the star-filled world. There was a ticking sound above his head. Can't wait to get rid of the leaves, slip down from above, merge into the deep pool, and break the peace.
He raised his head and saw the outside world through the transparent and rippling water. The feeling was quite mysterious, which could only be understood, not described in words.
That drop of dew fell into the pool, more like falling in his heart.
The world changed accordingly.
In an instant, the severe winter turned into a warm spring, and the water flowing around him also became warm and warm. Countless small fish like him ran past him, shaking their heads and waving their tails, and swam forward happily. Delivering such a lustrous beauty to the water, the surroundings seem to be shining, like a galaxy.
Shen Qiao closed her eyes and felt as if she had finished her life as a fish, and was reincarnated as this deep pool. Day after day, she waited for the rain to fill it up, waited for the flowers on the edge of the pool to talk to herself about her troubles, and waited for the flowers to fall. I was buried under water, the clouds turned into spring, the rain covered the autumn, the clear bells heard far, and the trees were full of green peaches.
He suddenly remembered a sentence in "Zhu Yangce".
Nothing but self.
Shen Qiao still remembered that when he first saw this sentence, it was in the volume of "Zhu Yangce" given to him by the master. Even if he later died and reborn, using Zhu Yangce's true energy to reshape his bones, it was not against "Zhu Yangce". Every sentence in Zhu Yangce can be thoroughly figured out.
At that time, before this sentence, there was another sentence: You have entered its heart and you can do whatever you want.
This sentence is easy to understand. To put it bluntly, when practicing a sword, you must figure out the heart of the sword, when you practice the sword, you must figure out the heart of the sword. When fighting the enemy, you must know yourself and the enemy, so that you can survive a hundred battles.
But in this way, "it" and "self" are also integrated into one, why should they be separated and say "there is nothing other than self"
Shen Qiao once thought that maybe it was a typo, or that Tao Hongjing didn't even think about it that much when he was writing.
However, at this moment, he suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence, and felt that he had fallen into a rut and took a detour.
People stand between heaven and earth, first of all is "self", and then "it", to save people and things with oneself, if there is no joy in oneself, there will be no joy in heaven and earth; My heart is happy, plain words become spring, my heart is sad, and the mountains and rivers are eclipsed.
After realizing this, not only does the state of mind immediately open up, but even the body expands infinitely, as if it can accommodate endless infuriating qi. , no more stagnation and blockage.
The mountains and rivers vibrated slightly with the Sword of Sadness, as if sensing the owner's mood and progress, the excitement was unbearable, and they were eager to unscabbard and sweep the enemy.
The four people outside the Buddha statue had just stepped into this small temple at this time.
Yan Shou said coldly: "You look around."
Xiao Se walked heavily because of the injury, and he walked slowly, but Bai Rong was unscathed, and he didn't seem to have any interest in charging, just following Xiao Se.
The two turned around behind the small temple, and bleak came back and said, "Elder Yan, there is no trace of Shen Qiao, will the other party see that we are so numerous and leave Yan Wushi and go first?"
Yan Shou: "It's unlikely, he was exhausted when he fought with us, and it's hard to recover in a short time. Even if he wants to run, he can't run far. Since he didn't walk with Yan Wushi, he must find a place first. Hiding, this is a suitable place, have you all searched for it?"
Xiao Se: "I have searched for it. This temple is very small. There is only one wing at the back. There is no place to hide people. A well can still be used. There is water below, and people can't hide in it. kind of agency."
He glanced at Bai Rong: "But Junior Sister Bai seems to have mercy on Shen Qiao, obstructing and urging her everywhere. I don't know what her intentions are?"
Bai Rong Jiao dripped: "Senior Brother Xiao is really giving me eye drops all the time. Could it be that if you knock me down, Master will look at you differently? Don't forget that you are from Sect Master Yuan, if you want to change the court, You have to show some sincerity, what's the use of just targeting me as a little girl?"
Baoyun, who was standing beside Yan Shou, suddenly said, "You guys have started fighting before you can find them. Sect Master Yuan and Elder Sang just teach your disciples like this?"
His tone was gloomy, completely inconsistent with the image of a dignified monk.
But the effect was obvious, Bai Rong and Xiao Se immediately closed their mouths and stopped talking.
Yan Shou looked around for a week, and finally his eyes fell on the huge Buddha statue. After a pause, he walked towards the Buddha statue.
His movements caught the attention of the others, and Baoyun also snorted: "This Buddha statue is very tall, if the center is empty, it can still hide people."
Yan Shou looked at the Buddha statue from top to bottom, from the top of his head to the stone platform where the Buddha statue was placed, suddenly reached out and pulled the cloth curtain on the stone platform, his eyes touched the traces under the cloth curtain, he sneered, and slapped the Buddha statue with a sudden palm!
Centering on the place where the palm wind fell, the cracks spread rapidly on the Buddha statue, and with a bang, the Buddha statue was torn apart!
There is indeed someone in there!
Everyone saw the figure hidden in the Buddha statue, Yan Shou laughed and jumped up, like an eagle hunting, and rushed towards the opponent first!
Before the person arrived, the palm wind had already swept in, and suddenly it was like a violent storm, with blood shadows all over the sky, the chill was biting to the bone, and it was pouring out. The loopholes can be escaped, and I can't help but tremble with fear and despair.
Not to mention that Shen Qiao was already exhausted from fighting the four of them, even if his strength was still there, he couldn't be caught off guard in the face of Yan Shou's overwhelming palm.
When he fought before, although Yan Shou was deterred by Shen Qiao's sword heart, he also found out the details of Shen Qiao and found that his internal strength was not enough to support the sword state. In short, the opponent was walking too fast on the kendo. , but the foundation of internal strength cannot keep up, and this fatal flaw can never be changed in a period of time.
Therefore, he believed that even if he could not inflict heavy damage on the opponent, he would be able to hold Shen Qiao firmly in place and be in a passive situation.
Between the thoughts of the electric turn, the palm of the hand floated, Yan Shou and Shen Qiao were only a short distance away, and the other party didn't even have time to turn around and block!
Suddenly, the white light rose sharply in front of him, and Sen Han's murderous aura rushed towards his face, and he actually suppressed Yan Shou's palm wind, and the sword qi even flowed through the blood shadow and approached Yan Shou's face!
"Elder Yan, be careful!" Xiao Se shouted.
There was no need for him to shout this voice, and Yan Shou had already retreated in a hurry.
The others didn't stand by, Baoyun jumped up and grabbed the top of Shen Qiao's head from another direction.
Shen Qiao swept the sword across, and the sword qi gushed out along the sword body. In the purging of true qi, the blue clothes were elegant and almost turned into a blue rainbow, which complemented the sword light, making it dazzling and impossible to distinguish.
Yan Shou's face changed, and he retreated dozens of steps until the temple wall was behind, and there was no way to retreat.
He could see that Shen Qiao was clearly coming for him, so even Bao Yun left him aside and only used his sword energy to build a sword curtain, which directly isolated other people's offensive, and only dealt with himself wholeheartedly.
But the other party is obviously already weak before, why can he recover like this in a short period of time? !
Yan Shou didn't have time to think about it, he rose directly into the sky, the roof tile was pierced by a palm, and Shen Qiao followed closely.
The two hit the roof from the temple, their figures floating like ghosts, holding the sword light and palming the wind, the wind was fierce and violent, like a cold winter and twelfth lunar month, the vegetation withered, and everything was silent. Accompanied by blood and rain, the forest is cool and cold, and the murderous aura is heavy, but the sword light suddenly rises, and it looks like a cloud and a sculpted color, a spring stone and a flower, and the divine light pours out, thriving.
In contrast, even the bright moon seems to have lost its color a little, hiding in the clouds in shame, never to be seen again.
Among the heaven and earth, there is only Jianguang, the mountains and rivers are in grief, and the golden stone grows loudly!
Seeing that he couldn't get in, he didn't force himself, he just stood by the side to watch the battle, he glanced from the corner of his eye and saw that Bai Rong was motionless, he couldn't help but said coldly: "Junior Sister Bai has no more affection for Shen Qiao, and she is reluctant to even deal with him with her own hands. already?"
Bai Rong said with a smile: "If I can't take down Elder Yan and Elder Baoyun together, I'll just add to the chaos. If Senior Brother Xiao has the ability, the little sister will take care of you!"
This is not a false statement. Shen Qiao has fought against one another, and so far he has not been defeated. Not only Baoyun can't help him, but even Yan Shou is faintly showing signs of defeat.
How can a person suddenly become so strong? !
Xiao Se was in shock, and even wondered if Yan Wushi had copied the double cultivation practice in the Hehuan Sect, but even if it was double cultivation, it would never be possible to complete it in such a short period of time.
He snorted coldly, too lazy to fight with Bairong, and turned to look at the battle situation on the roof.
But in the gap between them just a few words, the two on the roof seem to have already divided the competition.
