You TanZhi carried the gourd and travelled rapidly again to Nanjing, he reported again to AhZi, saying that he has caught the frost silkworm.
AhZi was overjoyed, she ordered him to rear the silkworm within the clay urn, at present it’s mid-summer, the climate is burning scorching, however when the frost silkworm is being stored within the urn, the Palace step by step bought colder and colder, not lengthy after, even the teapots, cups and the tea water all flip into ice. Throughout one evening You TanZhi shivered in his mattress, he was freezing and couldn’t sleep, he thought: “This silkworm is actually unusual, it not often seen on this world. If Miss actually let it suck my blood, even when i do not get poison, i may also freeze to demise.”
AhZi caught a number of toxic snakes and bugs to battle with the silkworm, the silkworm merely transfer round and all of the bugs freeze to demise, the silkworm feasted on their juice, this went on for ten days, not a single toxic bug was in a position to withstand. Someday AhZi got here into the primary corridor of the Palace and mentioned: “Iron Clown, we’ll kill this silkworm immediately, go stick your hand into the urn and let the silkworm suck your blood!”
You TanZhi was fearful about this present day, when his dreaming at evening, he feared this precise second, ultimately AhZi didn’t present any mercy and needed to sacrifice him together with the frost silkworm, his coronary heart is dejected, he stare upon AhZi, he didn’t transfer or reply.
AhZi contemplated: “I acquired this treasure by chance, the poison palm ability i’m coaching now, it is perhaps much more highly effective than my grasp.” She mentioned: “Stick your hand into the urn!” You TanZhi was tearful, he knelt and kowtow, he mentioned: “Miss, if you mastered this poison palm, please remember your subordinate who died for you. My surname is You, my identify is TanZhi, i’m not Iron Clown.” AhZi smiled and mentioned: “Tremendous, you’re referred to as You TanZhi, i’ll bear in mind it, you’re very loyal to me, excellent, you’re a loyal and devoted lackey!”
You TanZhi hearken to her reward, he felt comforted, he gave one other two kowtow and mentioned: “Thanks Miss!” however he was not prepared to surrender with no battle, instantly he flipped his physique the wrong way up, his head went between his legs, his left hand clutched his leg, proper hand reached into the urn, in his thoughts he is considering the small arrowheads on the 2 phrases beside the monk within the guide’s drawing, all of the sudden he felt an itch on his index finger, a stream of chilly power shot out like an arrow, it began from his arm and swiftly went to his chest, You TanZhi stored enthusiastic about the course of the small arrowheads, the stream of chilly power adopted the meridian path directed by his ideas, it went from his finger to his arm, and from his chest to the highest of his head, the chilly power chilled him to his bones wherever it goes.
AhZi noticed his odd posture, she discovered it humorous, after a very long time, he nonetheless maintained the posture, she turned curious and method his physique, the frost silkworm remains to be biting his index finger. The frost silkworm physique is clear like crystal, she noticed a thread of blood coming into its mouth, it move by its left physique , made a u-turn, and move by its proper physique and again to its mouth, flowing again into You TanZhi index finger.
After some time, a skinny layer of frost shaped on You TanZhi’s iron masks, garments and limbs, AhZi contemplated: “He have to be lifeless. A residing individual could have physique warmth, how can frost type on him?” however she noticed blood nonetheless circulating inside the frost silkworm, apparently it is nonetheless sucking blood, all of the sudden, wisps of scorching steam issued from the frost silkworm.
Within the midst of her shock, there was a delicate clattering sound, the frost silkworm fell off You TanZhi index finger. AhZi had already ready a stick, she ram down laborious. She thought this tremendous pure frost silkworm wouldn’t die with this one stroke, however who knew that when it fell into the urn, its stomach face the sky, it simply stayed there and didn’t flip round. The silkworm was pounded into pulp in a single transfer.
AhZi rejoiced and rapidly caught her hand into the urn, she stuffed the silkworm’s fluid and blood onto each her palm, closed her eyes, circulated her power and absorbed all of the blood and fluids.
She channeled for half a day, stretch out her palms and stood up, she noticed You TanZhi was nonetheless the wrong way up his head between his legs, physique coated with frost. She is extraordinarily astonished, she attain out and contact his physique, his palms emit an odd coldness, his garments frozen stiff. She is shocked however discovered it humorous on the identical time, she summoned the attendant and ordered him to bury You TanZhi.
The attendant led just a few Khitan troopers they usually put You TanZhi corpse on a horse carriage, they went outdoors the town. AhZi didn’t instruct them to provide a correct burial, thus the attendant didn’t hassle to dig a grave and easily threw the corpse right into a small brook, they went again to the town.
This act of laziness from the attendant really saved You TanZhi’s life. When You TanZhi was bitten by the silkworm, he instantly used the power circulation methodology from the [Tendon-Changing Sutra], the poison fuel was neutralized, his blood was suck by the frost silkworm and return again into his finger and the lethal frost poison of the silkworm was absorbed by him. Thus, the blood and fluids absorbed by AhZi was utterly ineffective and she or he wasted her effort. If You TanZhi had utterly mastered the power circulation methodology of [Tendon-Changing Sutra], he would have the ability to slowly neutralize the frost poison absorbed by him and drastically improve his inner power, however he solely learnt one methodology, thus he cannot expel the poison. The unusual frost poison is the primary most Yin and chilly component on this planet, it froze his physique strong instantly.
If the attendant actually buried him within the soil, even after just a few hundred years, he may not defrost and may not really die. At present his physique is submerged in water, it slowly stream downwards, after round 10 li, the creek made a flip and his physique was trapped by reeds on the facet. After some time, the water surrounding his physique all flip into ice, forming a crystal coffin. Water continued to hurry and wash over him, little by little the chilly air wash away, ultimately the ice overlaying his physique began to soften.
Fortunately, his sporting an iron masks on his head. Iron transfers warmth and chilly rapidly, thus ice overlaying his masks melted first. Water rush onto his head and he began coughing, he was aware and clear headed once more, he climb out of the brook, “Ding Dang” sound got here from his physique, evidently he nonetheless carried a variety of ice on his physique. Initially when his physique froze, he didn’t lose consciousness, however he was caught within the ice and couldn’t transfer. After being frozen for a protracted time period he misplaced consciousness, now that he safely escaped, he felt as if he simply awoke from a protracted dream.
He sat by the facet of the brook, he considered his loyalty and devotion to AhZi, he willingly danger his physique to feed toxic bugs to assist her observe her abilities, however when he died, AhZi didn’t even give a sigh, looking from inside the ice, he noticed her beam with pleasure and took all of the silkworm’s fluid and blood, unfold it on her palm and observe her abilities, she solely look sideways at him, considering that he died in a enjoyable and unusual means, there wasn’t the slightest little bit of pity from her.
He contemplated: “This frost silkworm is exceptionally toxic, it is price greater than a thousand toxic bugs and snakes, after absorbing the poison into her palm, Miss will naturally grasp her poison palm. If i am going again and see her …” Out of the blue, his physique trembled, his coronary heart grew chilly and he thought: “As soon as she sees me, she will certainly take a look at her poison on me. If she mastered the poison palm, she’s going to naturally kill me with one stroke. If she has but to grasp it, she will certainly ask me to catch extra toxic bugs and snake till she mastered her palm, till she will kill me with a single palm stroke. I’ll die both means, why ought to i even return?”
He stood up and bounce just a few occasions, shaking off all of the ice on his physique, he thought: “The place ought to i am going?”
He dare not search Qiao Feng for revenge anymore. In the mean time his undecided, he wandered across the wilderness and mountains, choosing wild berries and catching birds and small beasts for meals. In the course of the evening on the second day, he felt bored, he took out the Sanskrit [Tendon-Changing Sutra], he considered following the posture of the monk within the drawing.
The guide is totally soaked, he flipped the web page cautiously for worry that he would possibly injury the web page, however he was shocked as he noticed drawings of the monk on each single web page, their postures all totally different. After some deep contemplation, he lastly understood, the drawings will solely seem when moist, he was not save by Buddha. Ranging from the primary web page, he copied the posture, when he thought concerning the small purple arrowhead on the unusual phrases, he felt a faint thread of chilly ice touring round his limbs and bones, it was as if the frost silkworm was alive and crawling in his physique. He turned fearful and rapidly stood up, the frost silkworm inside his physique vanished instantly.
For 4 hours he stored considering: “The frost silkworm inside my physique, has it left?” however he cannot contact, really feel and even monitor it, he could not bear it anymore and began to mimic the odd posture and ponder on the small purple arrowhead on the unusual phrases, after some time, the frost silkworm begin crawling inside his physique once more. He gave a loud cry and stopped considering on the arrowhead, the frost silkworm vanish once more, when he begin to consider the arrowhead, the frost silkworm crawls once more.
Each time, when the frost silkworm crawls, his physique felt comfy and unrestricted. The guide comprises many alternative postures of bare monk, the small arrowhead on the unusual phrases twist and switch, its variation difficult. He adopted the varied totally different postures to activate the frost silkworm, his felt cool but heat, he was comfy and comfortable.
Time flies and some month move, when capturing beasts he felt his palms and ft turning into lighter and extra nimble, he leap and bounce additional, his operating velocity drastically exceeds what he was able to previously.
On a sure night, a hungry wolf got here out to hunt for meals, it pounced in the direction of him. You TanZhi was shock and fled rapidly, the claws of the wolf had already reached his shoulders, it uncovered its fangs and chew in the direction of his throat. He panic and randomly threw out a palm, hitting the wolf on the highest of its head. The wolf roll and twisted just a few occasions and stopped shifting. You TanZhi flip round and transfer again just a few zhang, he noticed the wolf didn’t transfer in any respect, feeling curious he picked up a stone and forged it out, the stone hit the wolf’s physique however it nonetheless didn’t transfer in any respect. He was pleasantly shocked and went over to examine, the wolf was lifeless. He by no means anticipate this easy palm stroke from him had this a lot energy, he flip and inspected his palm repeatedly however didn’t see something particular, he can not assist however cry out: “The spirit of frost silkworm has proven itself!”
He thought that when the frost silkworm died, its spirit resided inside his physique, leading to his wonderful feat, he didn’t understand it was purely resulting from his [Tendon-Changing Sutra], as well as the frost silkworm possess one of many deadliest poison on this planet, this Yin-poison had been absorbed by him, mixed with the superior inner power cultivated by the [Tendon-Changing Sutra], his inner power comprises an especially fierce Yin-strength.
The [Tendon-Changing Sutra] is probably the most treasured supreme guide of martial research, however its cultivation methodology is extraordinarily troublesome, it requires the dissolution of distinction between self and others, as well as, the practitioner should not have the slightest need to study the martial arts of the sutra. However solely first-class martial monks will get the prospect to observe the sutra, all of them are valiant and keen for fulfillment, who would not wish to grasp the sutra as quickly as doable and reap its advantages? Therefore, it is extraordinarily troublesome for them to not have the slightest need to study the sutra.
For a number of hundred years, many Shaolin eminent monks practiced the [Tendon-Changing Sutra], however years after years of diligent observe yielded negligible outcomes, thus all of the monks thought the sutra was wholly ineffective, when the sutra was stolen by AhZhu, though the eminent monks had been extraordinarily indignant, however they didn’t take into account it to be a significant loss.
100 years in the past, Shaolin Temple had a monk, this individual turned a monk since childhood, his dull-witted and loopy. His instructor couldn’t grasp the [Tendon-Changing Sutra] and threw it away in anger. The loopy monk picked up the guide thrown by his instructor, he snigger and observe the contents, ultimately he turned a high martial artwork professional of his technology. Though his martial arts had been excellent, until his demise, he didn’t know the precise motive, and no one knew it was because of the [Tendon-Changing Sutra]. You TanZhi didn’t have the need to study martial arts, he adopted the strategies within the sutra purely for the sake of activating the frost silkworm inside his physique as he discovered it enjoyable and attention-grabbing, unwittingly his martial arts improved daily, he adopted the very same route taken by the loopy monk a few years in the past.
Days after, he killed a number of extra wild beasts, he knew his palm power was exceedingly robust and he turned bolder, he stored on travelling south, he feared that if he doesn’t summon the frost silkworm spirit for a single day, the “silkworm spirit” will routinely depart him, thus he use his palm on a regular basis and dare not cease. The “silkworm spirit” was marvelous and unusual and at all times got here when summoned.
You TanZhi drifted south, on this present day he reached the borders of Henan province in Central Plains. He knew his iron head will scare individuals off, thus throughout the day he relaxation in caves inside wild forest, as evening falls, he got here out and stole meals from houses. His physique is exceptionally agile and no one detected him.
On this present day, he’s sleeping in a small dilapidated temple beside the street, all of the sudden, he heard the sound of footsteps, three individuals entered the temple.
He rapidly hid behind a shrine as he dare not let others see his look. When the trio entered the temple, they sat down instantly and begin chatting. The trio rambled and talked about gossips within the martial world, all of the sudden an individual ask: “The place do you assume Qiao Feng is hiding, one 12 months has move however we did not even hear single information about him?”
When You TanZhi heard the phrase “Qiao Feng”, his coronary heart grew chilly, he instantly paid consideration to their dialog. One other individual replied: “He dedicated all kinds of evils, he felt responsible and hid himself, i assume we’ll by no means see him once more.” The primary individual mentioned: “It may not be true. His biding his time, as soon as somebody is down and out, he’ll strike instantly. Do your math, after the battle at JuXian manor, he killed how many individuals? Elder Xu, Grandpa and Grandma Tan, Zhao QianSun, Taishan Iron-Face Decide and his whole household, Tiantai Mountain Monk ZhiGuang, Beggars Clan Madam Ma, Elder Bai ShiJing, sigh, numerous lives!”
When You TanZhi heard the phrase “Battle at JuXian Manor”, his coronary heart ached and he misplaced his curiosity within the dialog, after some time, he heard a hoarse voice mentioned: “Clan chief Qiao has at all times been benevolent and righteous, i by no means anticipate…sigh…i by no means anticipate, that is all predestined destiny. Allow us to simply go.” He end talking and stood up.
One other individual mentioned: “Previous Wang, you mentioned our Clan is recommending somebody to be the brand new Clan chief, who’s it?” the hoarse voice replied: “I do not know! We been recommending quite a few individuals for over a month, however we simply cannot discover a appropriate hero that may acquire the respect of your complete Clan, sigh, we will solely wait and see.” one other individual mentioned: “I can learn your thoughts, you’re hoping that Qiao Feng will come again and be our Clan chief once more. You higher abandon that concept and cease dreaming, if these phrases attain Corridor-Grasp Quan, your life can’t be assured.” Previous Wang bought anxious, he mentioned: “Xiao Bi, you mentioned these phrases your self, when did i say i need Clan chief Qiao to be our Clan chief once more?” Xiao Bi sneered: “You continue to tackle him at Clan chief Qiao, you dare say you do not need him to be the Clan chief once more?” Previous Wang raged: “In case you maintain spewing nonsense i’ll beat you to demise.” The third individual step in and mediated: “Sufficient, sufficient, we’re all brothers, let’s not spoil the connection. How can Qiao Feng turn into our Clan chief once more? His a Khitan canine, everybody will battle until demise in the event that they sees him once more. Furthermore, even when we invite him to be our Clan chief, you assume he’ll agree?” Previous Wang sigh and mentioned: “You might be proper.” As he end the trio left the temple.
You TanZhi contemplated: “The Beggar Clan is looking out in all places for Qiao Feng however they cannot discover him, how would they know his already the Lord of Southern Chancellery in Liao Empire. I’ll inform them this info. The Beggar Clan have overwhelming numbers, together with just a few consultants from Central Plains, we would have the ability to kill that traitor. I’ll observe them and kill Qiao Feng.” When he considered returning to Nanjing he considered seeing AhZi once more, his chest instantly warmth up like an oven.
He tiptoed out of the temple, he noticed the three Beggar Clan members stroll on the street and heading west, he adopted behind quietly. It is already nightfall, there isn’t a one round, he travelled for just a few li and got here to a low-lying land, he look to the distant and noticed a bonfire inside the mountain valley, You TanZhi contemplated: “My iron masks may be very unusual, they are going to make a mountain out of a molehill in the event that they see me, i ought to conceal inside the vegetation and eavesdrop.” He bounce into the grass bush and slowly crawled in the direction of the bonfire. He crawled for just a few zhang and cease, he step by step crawled nearer once more, however he heard an enormous commotion, a lot of individuals gathered on the bonfire. You TanZhi expertise nice sufferings just lately, he dare not be careless, as he bought nearer to the bonfire he crawled even slower, he crawled behind a big rock and was separated just a few zhang from the bonfire, he dare not transfer nearer anymore, he laid low and pay attention.
Among the many crowd by the bonfire, somebody spoke. You TanZhi pay attention for some time, it appears to be members from the Corridor of Nice Knowledge of the Beggar Clan, they gathered right here to debate who to suggest as the following Clan chief. Some push for Elder Music, some push for Elder Wu. One other individual mentioned: “Talking of wits and braveness, we should always suggest Corridor-Grasp Quan, sadly Corridor-Grasp Quan was expelled by Qiao Feng, we nonetheless have not settle learn how to let him rejoin the Clan once more.” One other individual replied: “The treacherous affair of Qiao Feng was uncovered by Corridor-Grasp Quan, he rendered an enormous service to our Clan, it ought to be straightforward to let him rejoin. As soon as the Normal Meeting begins, we’ll first settle the matter of letting Corridor-Grasp Quan rejoin the Clan, we’ll carry up his nice contribution after which suggest him as the following Clan chief.”
A cool and shiny voice mentioned: “It is doable for me to rejoin the Clan. However you can’t suggest me for the place of Clan chief, individuals would possibly gossip and say that i expose Qiao Feng for egocentric motive of displacing him as the following Clan chief.” An individual mentioned loudly: “Corridor-Grasp Quan is an individual who doesn’t shirk accountability. Though our Clan Elders have higher martial arts, however in the case of resourcefulness, nobody will be in comparison with you. In opposition to Qiao Feng, we will solely pit our wits in opposition to him, not drive, so Corridor-Grasp Quan ……” Corridor-Grasp Quan replied: “Brother Shi, i’ve but to formally rejoin the Clan, you possibly can’t name me Corridor-Grasp Quan.”
200 beggars across the bonfire chip in: “Elder Music has instructed, quickly, you’re nonetheless Corridor-Grasp, so why cannot we name you Corridor-Grasp Quan? Sooner or later if you turn into the Clan chief, you not must care about this Corridor-Grasp place.”
“Even when Corridor-Grasp Quan doesn’t turn into the Clan chief, no less than you will be promoted to Clan Elder, and you’ll nonetheless proceed to steer your former Corridor.”
“Right, even when Corridor-Grasp Quan turns into the Clan chief, you possibly can nonetheless take up extra accountability as Nice Knowledge Corridor-Grasp.”
As the group was getting full of life, a Clan member got here from the doorway of the valley and mentioned: “Reporting to Corridor-Grasp, Prince Duan from Dali Kingdom is requesting an viewers.” Corridor-Grasp Quan instantly stood up and mentioned: “Prince Duan from Dali Kingdom? Our Clan usually doesn’t have dealings with Dali Kingdom. Brothers, the Duan household from Dali is well-known for its martial arts, since Prince Duan is personally requesting an viewers, everybody ought to go and greet him.” He led all of the members to the valley’s entrance.
A younger man stood smiling on the entrance, his accompanied by seven to eight individuals. This younger man is Duan Yu. Each males cupped their palms and paid their respects, they met one another earlier than on the apricots forest in WuXi. At the moment, Quan GuanQing didn’t know Duan Yu’s id, however his embarrassingly affair of being expelled by Qiao Feng was seen by Duan Yu, he can not assist however really feel barely embarrass, however he instantly settle down, salute and mentioned: “I did not anticipate Prince Duan to return go to, you got here from such a far place, i ask on your forgiveness.”
Duan Yu smiled and mentioned: “Its fantastic, its fantastic. Junior receives orders from my father to tell your honourable Clan of a sure matter, i hope it will not be an inconvenience.”
Each of them change just a few pleasantries, Duan Yuan was accompanied by Gu DuCheng, Fu SiGui and Zhu DanChen. Quan GuanQing invited Duan Yu to take a seat down on a rock by the bonfire, Clan members introduced and served wine.
Duan Yu took a drink and mentioned: “A couple of months in the past, my father was on the residence of Deputy-leader Ma in XinYang, he encountered an odd affair, he personally witnessed the demise of Bai ShiJing out of your honourable Clan. However my father had sustained some accidents, he’s nonetheless recuperating, the motion of your Clan’s Elders will not be repair and we didn’t have the chance to satisfy them, thus my father couldn’t current the letter he wrote. A couple of days in the past, we heard that your Corridor is gathering right here and i used to be ordered to return right here rapidly.” He retrieved a letter from inside his sleeve, rapidly stood up and introduced it.
Quan GuanQing additionally stood up instantly and obtain it with each palms, he mentioned: “I’m sorry to have troubled Gentleman Duan to personally ship this letter, I thank Prince Duan for exhibiting nice concern to my humble Clan.” He noticed the letter is sealed, it bears the phrase: “To Be Personally Opened By Beggar Clan’s Elders”, he knew that it was not acceptable for him to open the letter, he mentioned: “Our Clan shall be holding a Normal Meeting quickly, all the young and old shall be coming, i’ll then personally current Prince Duan’s letter to our Clan’s Elders.” Duan Yu mentioned: “I’m sorry to bother you, junior will take his depart now.”
Quan GuanQing rapidly mentioned his thanks and mentioned: “Our Clan’s Elder Bai and Madam Ma died beneath the treacherous palms of Qiao Feng, Prince Duan personally witness this matter?” Duan Yu shook his head and mentioned: “Elder Bai and Madam Ma was not killed by my large brother Qiao, Deputy-leader Ma was harmed by another person. My father defined all these within the letter, Corridor-Grasp Quan will know the complete particulars sooner or later after studying the letter.” Duan Yu thought: “This matter can’t be defined with just some phrases, you aren’t a great individual, i needn’t waste time and clarify it to you. I do not assume you will have the heart to cover my father’s letter.” He cupped his palms in the direction of Quan GuanQing and mentioned: “Until subsequent time, you do not have to see us off.”
He flip round and stroll to the valley’s entrance, he met two Beggar Clan members and two males.
The 2 males gave one another a glance, the transfer just a few steps ahead and bow in the direction of Duan Yu, they introduced a purple invitation card.
Duan Yu took it and peruse it, the cardboard wrote the phrases:
“Su XingHe respectfully invitations all of the world’s most gifted chess participant, on the eighth day of the 2nd lunar month, to be at Henan’s LeiGu Mountain to play chess” he mentioned: “Glorious, junior will not be burdened with any necessary issues, i’ll undoubtedly be on the chess meet. However how did you two discover out that i can play chess?” the expression of the 2 man had been delighted, “Yi Yi Ya Ya” sound got here from their mouth, they made enormous gestures, it appears each of them are mute. Duan Yu couldn’t perceive their gestures, he smiled and ask Zhu DanChen: “LeiGu Mountain will not be removed from right here proper?” and he handed the invitation card to him.
Zhu DanChen took a take a look at the cardboard, he cupped his palms in the direction of the 2 man and mentioned: “The son of Prince ZhenNan of Dali pays his respect to Mr Clever, he categorical his gratitude and he’ll promptly go to on the appointed date.” He pointed his hand at Duan Yu and made just a few gestures.
The 2 man bow once more to pay their respects to Duan Yu, they took out one other purple invitation card and introduced it to Quan GuanQing.
Quan GuanQing took a take a look at the cardboard, he respectfully gave it again to the person, he wave his palms and mentioned: “Quan GuanQing from the Corridor of Nice Knowledge of the Beggar Clan pays his respects to Mr Clever, my chess ability is shoddy and laughable, i dare not go to the chess meet, i hope that Mr Clever shall be understanding.” The 2 man bow in the direction of him, the bow in the direction of Duan Yu once more they usually left.
Solely now did Zhu DanChen reply Duan Yu’s query: ” LeiGu Mountain is to the south of SongXian, North-east of QuYuan Ridge, it isn’t removed from right here.”
Duan Yuan took his depart from Quan GuanQing and exit the valley, he ask Zhu DanChen: “What sort of individual is Mr Clever Su XingHe? Is he the nationwide Go (Chess) champion of Central Plains?” Zhu DanChen replied: “Mr Clever is also referred to as the Deaf Mute Previous Man.”
Duan Yu gave an “Ah” sound, he heard his father and uncle discussing concerning the ‘Deaf Mute Previous Man’ earlier than, his a prestigious professional inside Central Plains, his deaf and mute however his martial arts is exceedingly excessive, his uncle was extraordinarily respectful when mentioning him. Zhu DanChen continued: “The Deaf Mute Previous Man is disabled, however he insist on calling himself Mr Clever, it appears he thinks his wits and penmanship will beat individuals’s listening to and debating abilities.” Duan Yu nods his head and mentioned: “It appears cheap.” After strolling just a few steps he gave a protracted sigh.
He listened to Zhu DanChen say that the Deaf Mute Previous Man’s wits and penmanship will beat individuals’s listening to and debating abilities, he can not assist however considered Wang YuYan’s “Narration Martial Artwork” beating individuals’s fist and weaponry abilities.
After rescuing the Beggar Clan members in WuXi with AhZhu, Bao BuTong and Feng BoE arrived and met up with them, the 5 of them headed north to seek for their Younger Grasp Murong. Duan Yu naturally needed to observe them. Feng BoE was grateful in the direction of him for sucking the scorpion’s poison and he welcome Duan Yu. However Bao BuTong was extraordinarily unforgiving, he blamed Duan Yu for disguising as Younger Grasp Murong and tarnishing his nice repute, later he even threatened to beat him up until he scram, Wang YuYan was solely fascinated by discovering her cousin and mentioned endlessly with Feng BoE, she turned a blind eye to Duan Yu’s scenario.
Duan Yu was helpless and will solely grudgingly half with Wang YuYan, however he nonetheless travelled north and thought: “You guys wish to go to Henan to seek for Murong Fu, it so occurs that i’m additionally going to Henan, Henan province doesn’t belong to your Murong Household, if Murong Fu and Bao BuTong can go, why cannot Duan Yu go as nicely? If it so occurs that i run into you guys once more, then it have to be destiny and Mr Bao can not blame me.”
However destiny didn’t need him to satisfy Wang YuYan simply shortly after their current parting. Throughout your complete month, Duan Yu wandered round Henan, he termed it sightseeing tour however in precise truth his simply wanting round in all course, hoping to see a strand of hair from Wang YuYang, or only a nook of her garments, as for the attractive mountains and sceneries he did not even give it a look.
Someday, Duan Yu was on the White Horse Temple in LuoYang, he was discussing “Agama” with the abbot, they mentioned about Buddhist teachings on “Seven Treasures of the Chakravartin”. Duan Yu was within the Jade Maiden treasure that’s mentioned to be “Neither lengthy nor brief, neither black nor white, a physique that’s heat throughout winter and funky throughout summer season”. The abbot shook his head repeatedly and mentioned: “Buddhist Duan, that is an analogy in Buddhist teachings, furthermore Buddha mentioned that the seven treasures is in impermanence … ” however he didn’t end as three males all of the sudden entered the temple, they had been Fu SiGui, Gu DuCheng and Zhu DanChen.
When Duan ZhenChun left the residence of Ma in XinYang, he met up with Ruan XingZhu and recuperated beneath her care, when he considered how Xiao Feng was wronged by the Beggar Clan for killing Ma DaYuan, he needed to vindicate him, thus he wrote a letter and ordered the trio to ship it to the Beggar Clan.
Fu SiGui and firm got here to LuoYang, they didn’t see any main figures at Beggar Clan’s major Corridor, they gathered info and knew that the Corridor of Nice Knowledge of the Beggar Clan is gathering close by, they hope to ship the letter there, however in a restaurant they heard one other amusing information a couple of daydreaming gentleman, the outline of the looks and habits of the person appears to be similar to Duan Yu, they ask the whereabouts of this gentleman they usually got here looking out within the White Horse Temple.
The 4 of them met up and was very comfortable, Duan Yu mentioned: “I’ll accompany you to ship the letter, after that rapidly carry me to see my father.” When he study that his father is at present in Henan, naturally his anxious to satisfy him, however all lately he hope to listen to the slightest information about Wang YuYan, he stored enthusiastic about her day and evening, he pray that he would possibly have the ability to meet her on the Beggar Clan’s gathering, however this hope ultimately got here to nothing.
Zhu DanChen noticed him sighing, he assume his enthusiastic about Mu WanQing however he can provide no comfort, he considered diverting his consideration and mentioned: “That Mr Clever is broadly distributing these playing cards and alluring individuals to play chess, his chess abilities have to be extraordinarily excessive. Younger Grasp, after assembly Prince ZhenNan, why do not you go and meet this Mr Clever and play just a few rounds with him?”
Duan Yu nodded: “Sure, taking part in chess can reduction your worries. However though she is conversant in all of the martial arts and all of the weaponries, she will’t play chess. She undoubtedly will not go to Mr Clever’s chess meet.”
Zhu DanChen was baffled, he didn’t know who Duan Yu is referring to, alongside the best way Duan Yu was absent-minded, his speech incoherent, and he dare not inquire anymore.
The group travelled north-west. Duan Yu was frowning and all of the sudden he nod and smiled, muttering: “There is a saying in Buddhist scripture: Serious about magnificence, her physique crammed with blood, 100 years later, turning into bone and mud’, though the saying is true however even when she turns into bones after 100 years, she’s nonetheless an extremely stunning bone.” As he fantasized about Wang YuYan’s skeleton, he all of the sudden heard the sound of horse’s hoof behind him, two individuals got here galloping on horses, however he cannot see their look clearly within the darkness.
The 2 horses appeared to be uncontrolled, they rushed in the direction of the group. Fu SiGui and Gu DuCheng stretch out their palms they usually every rein within the horses, the riders of the horses had been immobile. Fu SiGui was barely shocked, he lean over to verify, the primary rider end up to the messenger of Mr Clever, his face revealed a faint smile however he died way back. Just some moments in the past, this man had personally delivered the invitation card to Duan Yu, how did he die for no motive? The opposite lifeless rider can be the messenger of Mr Clever, he additionally died with an odd smile. When Fu SiGui and the remainder noticed this they knew these two males will need to have been killed by an especially lethal poison, they rapidly rein of their horses and transfer again two steps, they dare not contact the corpses.
Duan Yu was livid: “That Corridor-Grasp Quan from Beggar Clan is actually vicious, why did he hurt these males? Let’s go and motive it out with him.” He flip his horse round and was about to go discover Quan GuanQing and interrogate him.
Out of the blue a voice spoke out inside the darkness: “Little boy you’re ignorant, in your complete world apart from the Divine Elder of XingXiu and his sect, who has the power to kill with out leaving a hint? It is going to be fantastic if the Deaf Mute Previous Man obediently hides himself, if he dares come out, Divine Elder of XingXiu won’t ever let him survive, child, this matter is none of your concern, its finest should you depart rapidly.”
Zhu DanChen whispered: “Younger Grasp, that is the affair of XingXiu Sect, it doesn’t concern us, let’s go.”
Duan Yu already misplaced his curiosity when he cannot discover Wang YuYan, if these messengers had been at risk he would undoubtedly step in and save them, however since they already died he didn’t wish to fire up extra bother, he sigh and mentioned: “It isn’t ample to be deaf, their eyes should not see something, their nostril cannot odor any scent, their thoughts incapable of any thought, solely then can they break free from their bother.”
His speech was referring to Wang YuYan, since he already heard her voice, noticed her smile and motion, all these etched deeply into his thoughts, even when he was deaf and mute, he nonetheless cannot break free from enthusiastic about her. Unexpectedly, the person laughed and applauded: “Sure, Sure! You might be proper, i ought to prod their eyes blind, lower off their nostril, and beat them up so badly that they cannot even assume.”
Duan Yu gave one other sigh: “It is ineffective to make use of exterior drive. It is advisable domesticate your internal self, ‘Don’t permit color, sound and odor to stir your coronary heart’, however should you can let go of all self, you already reached Buddhahood. I’m solely a layman, how am i able to attain such attainment? Resentment, hate, love, parting, powerless, the 5 evil, the good sufferings of life.”
You TanZhi was hiding behind the vegetation, he noticed Duan Yu and his entourage come and go, somebody was shouting in entrance, two Beggars Clan members rapidly ran over and quietly reported to Quan GuanQing: “Corridor-Grasp Quan, the 2 mute males died for no motive, the perpetrator claims his from XingXiu Sect and his a subordinate of somebody referred to as Divine Elder of XingXiu.”
Quan GuanQing bought an enormous shock, his expression change immediately. He heard of Previous Freak of XingXiu, this individual employs lethal poison, his martial artwork can be exceedingly excessive, he contemplated: “He killed the messenger of Deaf Mute Previous Man, this matter doesn’t concern us, its finest if we do not fire up any bother.” He replied: “Okay, they’re ghost, combating one other ghost, we’d like not hassle.”
Out of the blue, somebody spoke in entrance of him: “Scoundrel speaking nonsense, how dare you curse me as ghost when i’m the subordinate of Divine Elder of XingXiu? You might be bored with residing.” Quan GuanQing was shocked and he can not chorus from taking a step again, beneath the sunshine from the torch, he noticed somebody standing upright in entrance of him however it was his personal subordinate from Beggar Clan, he fastened his focus and at last noticed him, the individual had a faint smile, his look unusual, he was standing proper behind one other individual, he shouted: “Who’re you, pretending to be a ghost, what are you doing right here?”
The individual behind the Beggar Clan member replied: “You might be actually daring, you mentioned the phrase ghost once more! I’m the subordinate of Divine Elder of XingXiu. Divine Elder of XingXiu is arriving in Central Plains, he wants 200 poison snakes and 100 poison bugs. Your Beggar Clan is at all times well-stocked with poison snakes and bugs, provide them instantly. Divine Elder of XingXiu will spare you lot of beggars should you respectfully current the objects to him. Or else, heng heng, you’ll turn into like this individual!”
Bang, the Beggar Clan member in entrance of him instantly flew off and fell beside the bonfire, his immobile, apparently he died way back. When the Beggar Clan member flew off, a dwarf sporting poplin shirt was revealed, no one is aware of how he killed the Beggar Clan member after which conceal himself behind the Clan member.
Quan GuanQing was startled and indignant, in a break up second, many ideas got here into his thoughts: “Previous Freak of XingXiu mess with our Beggar Clan, if we do not give in to their calls for now we have to battle it out. Though it is harmful, but when i collapse to his threats and provide the poison snakes and bugs, my Clan members will eternally look down on me. My hopes of turning into Clan chief shall be sprint, i can not even keep my present standings within the Clan. Fortunately the Previous Freak of XingXiu has but to reach, this individual is alone, i do not must be afraid of him.” Instantly he laughs and mentioned: “So you’re from XingXiu Sect, could i do know your identify?”
The dwarf mentioned: “I’m referred to as Tian LangZi. Rapidly go and put together the toxic snakes and bugs.”
Quan GuanQing smiled and mentioned: “It is solely toxic snakes and bugs, small matter, we do not want any main preparation.” He picked up a bag from the bottom and mentioned: “There’s just a few snakes right here, please verify it, is it appropriate for Divine Elder of XingXiu?”
The dwarf heard Quan GuanQing mentioned “Divine Elder of XingXiu”, he was very happy, seeing his expression respectful he thought: “It is mentioned that Beggar Clan is the primary clan in Central Plains, however after they heard my grasp’s identify they instantly flip limp. I’ll take these poison snakes, grasp will certainly prefer it, he will certainly reward me for being competent. Nonetheless, it is all because of the fierce repute of grasp.” He instantly stretch his neck to look into the bag.
Out of the blue all he noticed was darkness, the material bag had already coated his head, Tian LangZi was shocked, he instantly strike out together with his palm however he hit nothing, however at this second, his cheek and neck felt a slight ache, he was bitten by the toxic bugs within the bag. Tian LangZi didn’t have time to take away the material bag, he ferociously despatched out each his palm and retreated rapidly. As his head was coated with the material bag he cannot see a factor, each his palms had been attacking randomly, his face and head acquired one other sequence of bites, he panicked, he prolonged his legs and fled, however his legs threaded on empty air, he misplaced his footing and roll down the steep slope, with a splashing sound he fell into the river on the backside of the mountain and bought wash away by the present.
Quan GuanQing considered killing him, he did not anticipate him to flee, however the individual was stung by toxic scorpion and subsequently fell into the river, his principally most likely lifeless, however since members of XingXiu sect are poison consultants they may have particular cleansing methodology, since they dwell at XingXiu Sea they might additionally know learn how to swim, if the individual handle to outlive, XingXiu sect will certainly come again and search revenge. He mentioned to everybody: “At this second, we will solely deploy the enormous python formation and stake it out in opposition to Previous Freak of XingXiu. Might or not it’s doable that we won’t fend for ourselves with out Qiao Feng and need to be humiliated by others? XingXiu Sect are consultants in utilizing lethal poison, we won’t use our weapons and fists in opposition to them, now we have to make use of poison to counter their poison.”
The Beggar Clan members shouted out in settlement, instantly they disperse, they prepare into their battle formation just a few zhang away from the bonfire, everybody sat down and cross their legs.
You TanZhi noticed Quan GuanQing use the material bag to defeat Tian LangZi, he contemplated: “There’s most likely quite a few toxic bugs within the bag, they’ve so many luggage right here, are all of them crammed with toxic bugs? It isn’t stunning for the beggars to be proficient in catching poison bugs. If i can steal just a few of those luggage and current them to Miss AhZi, she will certainly prefer it very a lot.”
As soon as the Clan members sat down, they didn’t make any sound, everybody had just a few material luggage beside them, among the luggage are extraordinarily enormous, some had creatures squirming and shifting inside, You TanZhi’s hair stood on its finish when he noticed all these. The ambiance was silent, if he transfer now he will certainly be detected by the group, he thought: “I will not be afraid in the event that they cowl me with these luggage, i’ve the safety of the iron masks, but when they stuff my whole physique into the bag then i shall be in bother.”
After just a few hours, nothing occur, after some time the solar began to rise, overlaying the hills and vegetation with shiny mild. Birds had been chirping on the bushes, all of the sudden Quan GuanQing mentioned softly: “They’re right here! Everybody watch out!” he was kneeling on a rock outdoors the formation, holding onto an iron flute.
Music got here from the north course, a bunch of individuals stroll unhurriedly, they had been taking part in their wooden devices and drums, the music was melodious and nice. You TanZhi contemplated: “It’s a wedding ceremony procession?”
The music bought nearer and nearer, when it was 10 zhang away it stopped, a number of individuals mentioned in unison: “Divine Elder of XingXiu arriving in Central Plains, Beggar Clan members, kneel down and greet him!” as soon as they end, the drums begin thundering. After 3 rounds of drum roll, there was a gong sound, the drums stopped, ten individuals mentioned in unison: “We respectfully invite Divine Elder of XingXiu to show your nice abilities, subdue these demons and clowns from Beggar Clan!”
You TanZhi contemplated: “It is fairly just like Taoist ritual.” He quietly peered out from the rock, he noticed twenty individuals lining up within the northwest nook, some holding percussion devices, some armed with lengthy streamers and banners, purple and inexperienced color pleasing to the attention, from afar the banners had been embroidered with phrases corresponding to, “Divine Elder of XingXiu “,”Almighty”, “Limitless Energy”, “Inspiring Awe All through The World”, and so on. Because the music performed out, an previous man slowly stroll out, a dozen individuals organized into two rows, they adopted behind him, separated by just a few zhang.
The previous man was waving a goose feathered fan, solar shine on his face, his face was ruddy, head stuffed with white hair, three silver whiskers on his chin, he actually appear like an immortal depicted in footage. The previous man stroll in the direction of the Beggar Clan crowd and cease shifting when he is 3 zhang away, all of the sudden he issued just a few sharp whistle, he flick his fan and wave away the whistle sound, 4 Beggar Clan members sitting on the bottom instantly collapsed.
You TanZhi had an enormous shock: “This Divine Elder of XingXiu actually have highly effective magic!”
The previous man’s face revealed a faint smile, with one other “Zi” sound, he wave his feathered fan and one other group of beggars collapsed. The previous man’s whistle appears to be hiding some form of deadly poison, straight away, one other 6-7 beggars collapsed.
The gang behind the previous man cried out their praises: “Grasp’s ability shall be remembered all through all ages! These beggars pit themselves in opposition to us, it is akin to a firefly pitting its mild in opposition to the solar! Or a mantis blocking a cart, they vastly overrated themselves, laughable, laughable!”
“Grasp you solely must snigger and chitchat and these demons and clowns will die instantly, such easy crushing victory, disciple has by no means seen or heard such factor earlier than.”
“This can be a nice achievement by no means seen earlier than on this planet, if Grasp didn’t reveal it, the individuals from Central Plains won’t ever know such abilities exists.” They maintain singing their praises, feeling very smug, they begin taking part in their devices once more.
Out of the blue there was a “Xu” sound, Quan GuanQing introduced the iron flute to his mouth and began blowing. You TanZhi contemplated: “What’s he taking part in the flute for? Supporting the Divine Elder of XingXiu?” all of the sudden noise got here from the bottom, just a few brightly colored massive snakes slithered in the direction of the previous man. The group of disciples beside the previous man shouted: “Snakes, there are toxic snakes! Grasp, these snakes appears to be heading in the direction of us!” quite a few toxic snakes got here slithering out of the material luggage, some are large whereas others are small, all of them rush in the direction of the previous man and his disciples. The gang panic and begin screaming and howling randomly.
The disciples of XingXiu sect raised their metal workers, they pounded on the oncoming snakes, the previous man’s expression was calm, he nonetheless carried on whistling and waving his fan to repel his enemies. Quan GuanQing didn’t cease blowing his flue, his clan members all shouted to indicate their help.
Increasingly snakes gathered, inside moments, XingXiu sect members had been surrounded by just a few hundred snakes, 5-6 of those snakes are large python. A couple of large python transfer close to, they coil their tails and instantly trapped two individuals, one other two males was lure subsequently. If these XingXiu members flip their again and flee the snakes will be unable to catch them, however their Grasp remains to be combating they usually dare not depart, they will solely brandish their weapons and pound randomly, they killed 8-10 snakes however 7-8 of them was additionally bitten by the snakes. The large pythons are much more harmful, their skins are tough and their physique thick, they behave as if nothing had occurred when caught by the metal workers, they coil their physique across the males and constricted, not letting them go. Because the flute maintain blowing, extra large python got here out of the material luggage, there’s already 27-28 of them.
The previous man noticed the scenario was unfavourable, he needed to maneuver again and assault Quan GuanQing, all of the sudden two small snakes chew in the direction of his face. He shouted angrily: “How dare you!” he wave his fan and introduced down the 2 snakes, all of the sudden he felt one thing tender coiling round his ankle. He knew he’s in bother and rapidly leap into the air. He heard one other “Xu” sound from the flute, 4 pythons raised their tails and coil in the direction of him. The previous man was in mid-air, he strike out with each palms, it hit the snake in entrance and to his left, his physique flash and he landed 2 zhang away. At this second, the tail of the third and 4th large python assault him concurrently. Beneath such urgent scenario he exerted his power and ship out one other palm, the palm drive arrive and one large python was struck on its head and its mind flip into pulp.
The mass of snakes gush in like flowing river. The previous man killed one other three python, however his waist and proper leg was trapped by two large python. He gathered his inner power and gave a loud cry, he clawed open the stomach of the python on his waist, his physique was splash with blood. However the python may be very resilient, though its stomach is break up open it endured the ache and constricted much more, the previous man’s pelvic bone was about to fracture beneath the stress. He struggled to interrupt free, however one other two large python wrap themselves round his physique, even his arm was trapped, he couldn’t wrestle anymore. Seeing such horrifying scene, You TanZhi was so shock that he might hardly breathe.
Quan GuanQing was very comfortable, his enemies had been all trapped and certain by the enormous python, they will not resist they usually cursed in rage, he cease taking part in his flute, he snigger and mentioned: “Previous Freak Of XingXiu, your XingXiu Sect and my Beggar Clan usually do not mess with one another, why did you provoke us for no motive? What ought to we settle this?”
This wholesome previous man is probably the most hated individual in Central Plains, the Previous Freak of XingXiu Ding ChunQiu. One of many three treasures of his Sect the [Divine Wooden King Tripod] was stolen by AhZi, he despatched out quite a few disciples to hunt her down, even his head-disciple Zhai XingZi was dispatched. However the returning information was at all times very discouraging. He final heard that AhZi had the backing of Qiao Feng they usually closely injure Zhai XingZi, Ding ChuQiu was shock and indignant, Ding Chunqiu knew the Beggar Clan is the primary clan in Central Plains and they aren’t straightforward to cope with, he additionally heard the Deaf Mute Previous Man is especially lively round Xing Lake in recent times, the Deaf Mute Previous Man is a thorn in his facet and he can by no means relaxation in peace with him round, thus he considered retrieving the [Divine Wooden King Tripod] after which resolve all these issues as soon as and for all, therefore he introduced his disciples and personally travelled east to Central Plains.
He practiced the [Great Energy Dissolving Skill] and he regularly require toxic fluids of poison creatures to be smeared on his palm and absorbed into his physique, if he doesn’t take in any poison fluids for seven days, not solely will his inner power lower, the poison gathered in his physique may also step by step flare up as its not suppressed by new poison, the repercussion is lethal, the [Divine Wooden King Tripod] has a really particular scent, coupled with the incense burnt, it will likely be capable of instantly appeal to toxic bugs, all toxic creatures inside 10 li radius will be unable to withstand being attracted by the perfume.
With this tripod, Ding ChunQiu can catch toxic bugs with none effort, his [Great Energy Dissolving Skill] naturally turn into increasingly more profound. Beforehand, Ding ChunQiu had a really gifted disciple, he imparted his abilities to him and taught him the [Great Energy Dissolving Skill], however after some achievements within the ability the disciple turned self-conceited and was very disrespectful in the direction of him. Ding ChunQiu subdued the disciple, he didn’t torture him however merely imprison him inside a stone home in order that he cannot seize any poison bugs, ultimately the poison inside his physique flare up, it was extraordinarily insufferable and he can not assist however tear his personal muscle mass off to reduction himself, he moaned and wailed and ultimately died after 40 days. Though Ding ChunQiu was delighted, he can not assist however really feel worry, he guarded himself and by no means imparted his [Great Energy Dissolving Skill] to anybody. Thus, Zhai XingZi and the remainder of the disciple didn’t know the ability, AhZi needed to study the ability and she or he needed to eavesdrop secretly and likewise steal the tripod.
AhZi was adept at scheming, when her grasp had end absorbing contemporary poison she bid him farewell and travelled east, when the Previous Freak of XingXiu realized the tripod was stolen, it was already 7 days later and AhZi had escape to a faraway place. She solely travelled on distant route, though the disciples pursuing her had increased martial arts, their resourcefulness is means inferior to hers and she or he managed to bluff her means by way of, she employed quite a few decoy techniques and threw off all her pursuers.
The residence of the Previous Freak of XingXiu is a depressing and damp ravine, the realm is wealthy with toxic bugs and snakes, though the tripod was misplaced, it nonetheless not too troublesome to catch toxic bugs and replenish his provide of poison, nonetheless he can solely hope to catch frequent poison bugs, with out assistance from the tripod he can not catch uncommon bugs which possess lethal poison. One matter trigger him limitless worries, his afraid that consultants from Central Plains would possibly uncover the origin of the tripod and they’re going to search to destroy it, thus he hope to resolve this matter rapidly in order that he can cease worrying.
He met a bunch of his disciples on the borders of ShanXi. His head-disciple Zhai XingZi was lucky to protect his life however he misplaced all his martial arts, he was overwhelmed and humiliated by fellow martial-brothers, his second disciple Shi BiRen quickly took over the publish of head-disciple, all of the disciples noticed their grasp and was frightened of being punished as they failed to finish their job, luckily the Previous Freak of XingXiu wants all the assistance he can get and he postponed all punishments and hope his disciples can redeem themselves by performing a great service.
Alongside the best way, the group inquired concerning the Beggar Clan. However firstly, their look was unusual and their behaviors deplorable, nobody was willingly to disclose the data to them. Secondly, Xiao Feng was in Liao Empire and have become the Lord of Southern Chancellery, however individuals from the martial world didn’t find out about this matter, thus they might not discover any information concerning the Beggar Clan they usually cannot even discover the primary department of the clan.
On this present day, Tian LiangZi inadvertently discovered concerning the gathering of the Nice Knowledge Corridor of Beggar Clan, he needed to say credit score for this piece of data and he infiltrated the Beggar Clan alone, however he ultimately fall prey to Quan GuanQing’s schemes. Fortunately his physique already contained essence of poison and the scorpion’s poison didn’t kill him, he escaped and reported the matter to his grasp. Ding ChunQiu instantly rush over, however he didn’t anticipate that together with his lethal poison and profound martial arts, he was subdued by large python and immobilized.
Ding Chunqiu didn’t reply Quan GuanQing’s query, he mentioned coldly: “There’s an individual referred to as Qiao Feng in your Beggar Clan, the place is he? Rapidly ask him to return out and see me.”Quan GuanQing coronary heart was shaken, he ask: “You wish to see Qiao Feng, what for?” Ding ChunQiu mentioned proudly: “Divine Elder of XingXiu is asking you a query why aren’t you answering? You retain asking ineffective questions, the place is Qiao Feng?”
Quan GuanQing noticed Ding ChunQiu was immobilized by the python, he had already misplaced the ability to withstand, however his method remains to be conceited and ferocious, such braveness is actually uncommon on this world, he mentioned: “It is mentioned that the Previous Freak of XingXiu is all figuring out, however i believe it is simply undeserved repute, you possibly can’t even deal with just a few small snakes. I’m sorry, now we have to assist the world eliminate an incredible evil immediately.”
Ding ChunQiu smiled and mentioned: “Previous man is careless, i fell into the lure of those cold-blooded reptiles, i’ll die immediately, its actually destiny……”
However he didn’t end as certainly one of his disciple who’s trapped by the python all of the sudden shouted: “Heroes of Beggar Clan, please launch me, you should have nice profit. My grasp is proficient in trickery, you possibly can by no means guard in opposition to him. Only a minor slip-up and you’ll fall into his lure.” Quan GuanQing mentioned coldly: “And the way will we profit by releasing you?” The individual replied: “There are three treasures in my XingXiu Sect, they’re referred to as XingXiu Three Treasures. Solely the Previous Freak of XingXiu and me is aware of its hidden location. In case you launch me, i’ll allow you to kill the Previous Freak of XingXiu and give you the treasures. In case you kill me, you’ll by no means discover the treasures.”
One other XingXiu disciple cried out: “Nice hero, nice hero, do not be fooled by him! One of many three treasures is already stolen. It is higher so that you can launch me. I’m the loyal one, i’ll by no means deceive you.”
Immediately, quite a few XingXiu disciples clamoured: “Heroes of Beggar Clan, its finest should you spare me, neither of them are loyal, i’ll serve you wholeheartedly.”
“Nice hero, i do know a lot of the martial arts of XingXiu Sect, i’ll let you know every thing, i will not conceal them from you.”
“There’s an incredible conspiracy surrounding our arrival in Central Plains, the primary goal is to cope with Beggar Clan. Nice heroes, do you wish to know all the within info?”
“Our XingXiu Sea hides limitless gold, silvers and uncommon treasure, i do know the hiding spot of each treasure. I’ll lead all of you there and dig it out, heroes of Beggar Clan you not must beg for meals anymore.”
These individuals stored boot-licking and tried to pledge their loyalty, some tried to supply treasures, some tried to fire up curiosity by revealing secret plans, a few of their phrases are outright lies and utterly absurd. Some XingXiu disciples are on the verge of demise resulting from being poisoned and constricted by the snakes, they struggled for air to beg for forgiveness.
Members of Beggar Clan didn’t anticipate that the disciples of XingXiu are so spineless, thus they despise them, however their sense of curiosity was aroused they usually transfer nearer to pay attention attentively. Quan GuanQing mentioned coldly: “You aren’t loyal to even your personal grasp, how are you going to pledge loyalty to complete strangers? Aren’t you ridiculous?”
A XingXiu disciple replied: “No its totally different, very totally different. The Previous Freak of XingXiu has awful abilities, what is the future prospect in following him? What the profit in following him? How can the Previous Freak of XingXiu be a match for Beggar Clan?”
“Yea, Beggar Clan taking in disciples of XingXiu Sect, Western and Central Plains shall be in shock, who dare not admire the heroes of Beggar Clan?”
“The phrase ‘Hero’ will not be ample to explain you, now we have to refer you as ‘Chivalrous Hero’ ,’Saint’, ‘Saviour of commoner’!”
“I’m articulate and good with phrases, i’ll journey to the 4 corners of the earth and unfold the phrases about your nice kindness, the chivalrous heroes of Beggar Clan shall be renown all through your complete world.”
“Pei, the chivalrous heroes of Beggar Clan is already well-known all through the world, why do they even want you to promote? I considered the title of ‘Saint’ and ‘Saviour of commoner’ for them. They bestow intelligence upon me.”
A five-pouch Beggar Clan disciple frowned and mentioned: “You lot of scumbags, making a lot racket, listening to you lot made us fed up. Previous Freak of XingXiu, you’re actually good for nothing, why did you settle for these shameless individuals as disciples? I will ship you to heaven first, after which i let these lot of scumbags observe you, i’m going to slaughter you entire lot immediately!” as he end, he gave a shout and ship his palm in the direction of Ding ChunQiu.
This palm strike was accompanied by fast wind, the power behind it extraordinarily robust and fierce, it landed on Ding ChunQiu’s chest. However Ding ChunQiu was utterly unhurt, the beggar felt his knees soften and he collapsed onto the bottom, he curled up and began twitching, after some time he was immobile. The gang of Beggar Clan members had been shock, they shouted: “What occur?”, two beggars got here out to assist him up. When the 2 males touched his physique, they began shaking and likewise collapsed after some time. Three close by beggar clan disciples naturally stretch out their palms to help them, however after they contact the 2 males, additionally they collapsed. The remainder of the group was surprised, they not dare to the touch their fallen comrades.
Quan GuanQing shouted: “There poison on this previous man’s physique, we won’t contact his physique, launch the projectiles!”
Eighty 9 4-5 pouch disciples pulled out their hidden weapons, metal darts, flying knives, sleeve arrows, cobblestones, they threw all these weapons at Ding ChunQiu. Ding ChunQiu gave a loud shout and switch his head sharply, he swung his white hair out, his hairs had been like tender whiskers and repelled 10 of the projectiles thrown at him. However there was a number of “Ah Yo” cries, 6-7 beggars had been struck by hidden projectiles. These projectiles didn’t hit their important spots, some was gazed on their flesh, however these males instantly collapsed and died.
Quan GuanQing shouted: “Transfer again, transfer again!” all of the sudden there was a swishing sound, it was attributable to the capturing of a metal dart, Ding ChunQiu used his hairs to grip the dart and shoot it in the direction of him. Quan GuanQing unexpectedly use his iron flute to deflect it, there was a ringing sound and the dart was repelled far-off. He thought this Previous Freak of XingXiu is actually highly effective, he can solely depend on his large python to kill him, he introduced his flute to his mouth, as he was about to blow, his lips all of the sudden felt numb and he immediately turned dizzy, he knew one thing was unsuitable and unexpectedly threw away the iron flute, there was a thud sound and he collapsed. The Clan members was shock, instantly two males transfer ahead to assist him up. Quan GuanQing mentioned drowsily: “I … I’m poisoned, Each … everybody…fast…rapidly…depart” the Clan members had been scared out of their wits, they carried him and fled, abandoning all of the our bodies, snakes and material luggage.
You TanZhi remains to be squatting within the bushes, his so shock by the continued that he dare no transfer an inch. The encompassing was a complete silence, a dozen poisoned Clan members curled right into a ball like porcupine, apparently they’d already died.
The remaining large python are not any lengthy beneath the management of Quan GuanQing’s flute sound, they won’t hurt anybody and solely immobilized Ding ChunQiu and his disciples. Nobody within the XingXiu Sect dared to maneuver or wrestle for worry of scary the vicious nature of the snakes and getting bitten.
The silence stay for some time, lastly somebody spoke: “Grasp, your divine ability is unrivalled all through the world, you simply slaughtered all these evil and cruel beggars and drive all of them away …”
Earlier than he might end one other disciple interrupt him and mentioned: “Grasp, do not hearken to his bullshit, his the one which praised the beggars as ‘Chivalrous Heroes’ and ‘Saints'”
One other disciple mentioned: “We adopted Grasp for therefore a few years, how can we not know his capacity to separate the heaven and earth? We discuss nonsense and fooled the beggars simply now to distract them in order that Grasp can show his unparalleled abilities.”
Out of the blue somebody burst into tears and wailed: “Grasp, Grasp! Disciple deserves to die, disciple is confused, i used to be afraid of demise and surrendered to the enemy, i sincerely remorse it now and i’m willingly to die with the poison snakes, i dare not ask Grasp for mercy anymore.”
The remainder of the disciples instantly got here to an understanding: Their Grasp hated individuals who clarify away and whitewash their errors, solely by condemning themselves and admitting to all kinds of errors can they hope to obtain their Grasp’s mercy and forgiveness. Immediately, all of the disciples begin cursing themselves, they curse their very own evil intentions and the way they need to die. You TanZhi eavesdrop from the bushes, he was completely baffled by them.
Ding ChunQiu gathered his inner power, he considered bursting by way of the three large python binding him by utilizing pure drive. Sadly, the python’s physique is elastic and versatile. When Ding ChunQiu exerted his power, the snakes solely lengthen, their our bodies didn’t break. Ding ChunQiu was coated with poison, his hair and garments all contained lethal toxin. When the beggars attacked him with their weapons, all of them got here into contact together with his poison, nonetheless the python’s pores and skin is thick, robust and slippery, his poison couldn’t penetrate it. As he hearken to his disciples endlessly speaking, he raged: “If somebody can give you an thought to drive away the snakes, i’ll spare him. You lot nonetheless do not perceive my mood? I’ll by no means kill people who find themselves helpful to me. You individuals solely know learn how to discuss nonsense and crap, what use is it?”
As he mentioned this, the group of disciples instantly quieten down. After some time, somebody mentioned: “We want somebody to make use of a torch and burn the our bodies of those snakes, they are going to undoubtedly run off.” Ding ChunQiu scolded him: “You might be farting! We’re out right here within the wilderness, there is not any village or store close by, who will come by? Even when somebody did come by, as soon as they see so many snakes, they are going to get scared and run off, why would they even hassle to carry a torch and burn them?” the remainder of the disciples stored suggesting concepts, however all of the concepts had been awful and restricted, everybody simply stored on speaking. They hope to curry favour with their grasp and present that they observe his orders and make themselves helpful by suggesting concepts.
After a very long time, a disciple was certain so tightly that he couldn’t breathe anymore, in his dizzy state he randomly chew the snake. The python felt ache and retaliate by biting his throat, that disciple gave a tragic cry and died.
Ding ChunQiu was getting increasingly more anxious. If he was surrounded by quite a few enemies, he might make use of devious methods and schemes, however these snakes are utterly proof against methods and schemes, he feared the snakes would possibly get hungry and ultimately swallow him.
His worry is certainly correct, after not being affect by the flute sound for a very long time a large python is extraordinarily hungry, it open its mouth and chew a XingXiu disciple. The disciples cried out: “Grasp save me, Grasp save me!” his two legs had already been swallowed by the snake. His physique was additionally swallowed, his waist entered first and it slowly transfer to his chest, as his nonetheless not but lifeless he cried out loudly, his cry shook the wilderness.
Everybody knew the identical factor was about to occur to them, the sight frightened them drastically. One disciple noticed the Previous Freak of XingXiu can be at his wits finish, his resentment rose and he overtly derided him, he blame Ding ChunQiu for implicating him, he was initially a shepherd at XingXiu Sea however was threatened and coerced into becoming a member of XingXiu Sect, since his about to die, he poured out all his resentment and dissatisfaction in opposition to Ding ChunQiu.
As he started cursing, the remainder of the disciples additionally joined in. All of the disciples suffered common ill-treatment beneath Ding ChunQiu, they held the grudge of their coronary heart and dare not voice it out. Since everyone seems to be about to die collectively, they began to scold him to vent their frustrations. One disciple was cursing loudly and his physique stirred, this provoke the python and it retaliate by biting him on the shoulder, the person scream: “Ah Yo, Ah Yo! Save me, save me!”
You TanZhi noticed these persons are utterly immobilized by the python, his coronary heart didn’t have anymore misgivings and he stood up, the place will not be appropriate for staying and he needed to go away rapidly.
The XingXiu disciples all of the sudden noticed his iron masks, they’d a shock, however somebody remembered that he can assist save them, he exclaimed: “Nice hero, chivalrous man, please collect some dried leaves and lightweight a hearth to drive away these snakes, I instantly provide you with … provide you with 1000 taels of silver.” one other individual mentioned: “1000 tael is inadequate, now we have to provide 10 000 taels” and one other individual mentioned: “This gentleman is a chivalrous individual, his conscience is the perfect, he will certainly perform righteous act, furthermore there’s nothing harmful about lighting a hearth to burn the snakes.” Immediately their reward bought louder and louder, the earlier rewards rapidly elevated to 1 million taels of gold.
The cursing capacity of those disciples is firstclass, their flattering and bootlicking capacity is even higher and nicely honed. You TanZhi has by no means heard anybody name him “Hero”, “Chivalrous”, “Benevolent and Righteous”, “Peerless Hero”. Beneath their reward, his physique felt mild, as if he was floating, he all of the sudden felt he possess the spirit of “Nice Hero” and “Chivalrous Individual”, he didn’t take care of the gold, he solely felt remorse that AhZi didn’t hear these individuals immortalize him.
Directly he set off and begin choosing up dried leaves, however he noticed there’s many fierce python, he was frightened of by accident scary these snakes and getting trapped by them, after considering for some time, he gathered dried twigs and made an enormous hearth in entrance of him, he picked up one burning twig and threw it on the nearest python. He conceal behind the fireplace, his physique poised, if the snake rush in the direction of him, he’ll instantly run and escape, no matter “Nice Hero” or “Chivalrous Individual”, he did not care about it anymore.
The python is certainly afraid of fireplace, as soon as it noticed the fireplace burning, it launched the XingXiu individuals and slithered into the bushes. You TanZhi noticed his preliminary try was profitable, together with the cheering of the XingXiu disciples, he lit a number of extra twigs and threw them on the python. All of the snakes began to flee, even the enormous pythons cannot face up to the fireplace, it launched its captives and slithered away. Moments later, tons of of snakes and large pythons all fled the scene, not a single one remained.
The XingXiu disciples celebrated and cheered loudly: “Grasp is excessive smart. Grasp has nice foresight, the fireplace methodology is certainly the best.”
“Grasp has nice fortune, he flip sick luck into good!”
“Its all resulting from Grasp sleek method, he directed with good ease. He saved out insignificant lives!”
They stored praising and piling credit on Ding ChunQiu, they didn’t point out about You TanZhi’s effort in liberating them.
You TanZhi stood rooted to the bottom, he felt unusual, he contemplated: “Just some moments in the past you individuals curse your Grasp, however now you praised him to the heavens, and now you utterly forgotten about me, what occur to the ‘Nice Hero’ and ‘Chivalrous Individual’?”
Ding ChunQiu wave his hand to beckon him over and mentioned: “Iron-head man, come over right here, what’s your identify?” You TanZhi was used to being humiliated, though Ding ChunQiu was impolite he didn’t care and reply: “My identify is You TanZhi.” And he stroll just a few steps in the direction of him. Ding ChunQiu mentioned: “Are these beggars lifeless? Go verify to see if they’re nonetheless respiratory.”
You TanZhi mentioned: “Okay” he bend over his physique and stretch out his hand to verify the breath of a beggar, he did not really feel any breath, the individual was lengthy lifeless. He tried one other beggar, his breath additionally stopped way back, he mentioned: “All of them are lifeless, they aren’t respiratory.” He noticed the expressions of the XingXiu disciples are unusual, they appear to be gloating at his misfortune. He didn’t perceive the rationale behind it, he repeated his phrases: “All of them are lifeless, they aren’t respiratory.” After some time the smug look on their faces slowly died off, changed by expression of shock and disbelief.
Ding ChunQiu mentioned: “Go look at each single beggar, see if any certainly one of them will be saved.” You TanZhi mentioned: “Okay” he examined all of the beggars, he shake his head and mentioned: “All of them are lifeless. Elder’s ability is certainly formidable.” Ding ChunQiu smile sarcastically and mentioned: “You poison-resisting ability can be formidable.” You TanZhi felt curious and mentioned: “My…what…poison resisting ability?”
He was very puzzled, he didn’t perceive the which means of Ding ChunQiu’s phrase. He didn’t understand that when he checked the beggar for breath, it was the identical as going to the gates of hell. When Ding ChunQiu was immobilized by the python, he couldn’t escape and needed to be rescued by You TanZhi, if information of this unfold out he will certainly lose face, thus when the snakes left he instantly considered silencing You TanZhi. Unexpectedly, for the previous few months, You TanZhi stored on working towards the [Tendon-Changing Sutra], the poison of the frost silkworm had additionally merged flawlessly inside his physique, thus the poison on the beggars couldn’t hurt him in any respect.
Ding ChunQiu contemplated: ” his pores and skin and listening to his voice, his extraordinarily younger, he undoubtedly will not have any actual ability or capacity, principally most likely his carrying anti-poison pearl or another treasures that repel poison, or he had beforehand consumed some miracle antidote.” He mentioned: “Brother You, come over right here, i’ve one thing to say.”
You TanZhi noticed his speech was honest, however he personally witnessed how he viciously killed all of the beggars, his disciples additionally cursed and flattered randomly, he felt these persons are extraordinarily troublesome to cope with and its finest to remain far-off from them, he mentioned: “Junior has one thing to do, i can not keep, i’ve to go now.” He cupped his fists and stroll away.
He solely stroll just a few steps, a light-weight breeze swept previous his physique, each his wrist was caught by somebody. You TanZhi increase his head, he noticed the individual was a big man from the XingXiu Sect. He didn’t know his intention, however noticed him snigger grimly, he knew he was in bother and cried: “Let me go!” and he gave a tug.
There was a whooshing sound over his head, a big physique flew over his head, with a loud bang the physique slam onto the alternative cliff, the cranium was crushed instantly, the mind and cranium combined right into a slurry.
You TanZhi noticed the individual slam the cliff with an especially violent drive, he discovered it laborious to consider, he was much more astounded that the individual was the one holding his wrist moments in the past, he was puzzled: “This man is completely fantastic, why did he bang his head on the cliff and commit suicide? Is he mad?” He by no means suspected that when he gave a tug, his fierce power threw the big man out onto the cliff.
The group of XingXiu disciple gave an “Ah” sound, their faces change colour.
Ding ChunQiu noticed the best way You TanZhi threw his disciple, it was flimsy, not first-class ability, however the bodily power is extremely uncommon, he thought You TanZhi have to be gifted with innate superhuman power, however his martial arts is mediocre, his physique flash and he prolonged his hand to push down on You TanZhi’s head. You TanZhi was caught off guard, he was pressured to kneel on the bottom, he tried to straighten his physique to face up however he felt as if a ten thousand pound stone mountain is sitting on his head, he couldn’t transfer in any respect, he pleaded: “Elder please spare my life.”
Ding ChunQiu heard him plead for mercy, he felt assured and ask: “Who’s your instructor? You might be actually daring, how dare you kill my disciple?” You TanZhi mentioned: ” I …… I’ve no grasp, i dare not kill Elder’s disciple.”
Ding ChunQiu didn’t wish to waste time speaking to him, it will likely be simpler to easily kill him, he launch his hand to let You TanZhi rise up, instantly he wave his palm and strike in the direction of You TanZhi’s chest. You TanZhi had an enormous shock and he unexpectedly prolonged his proper hand to deflect the palm. Ding ChuQiu’s palm was sluggish, You TanZhi prolonged his proper hand and each their palms met. Ding ChunQiu needed their palms to satisfy, he gathered his inner power and despatched it out along with the poison in his hand, that is his well-known [Great Energy Dissolving Skill], the sufferer will both contract lethal poison, or maintain injury to his meridians and turn into incapable of exerting inner power, the sufferer will really feel as if all his inner power is dissolved, the result is totally managed by Ding ChunQiu. Ding ChunQiu killed numerous individuals with this ability. When martial artists hear the phrase [Great Energy Dissolving Skill], they are going to really feel nice loathing and worry.
Each their palms clashed, You TanZhi’s physique shook and he retreated 6-7 steps, he tried to face his floor however was pressured to take a seat down, however the opponent’s drive didn’t dissipate, his arm hit the bottom and his again additionally adopted, his head additionally hit the bottom and he somersaulted 3 times, he lastly managed to stabilize himself and he kowtow and mentioned: “Elder please spare my life.”
When Ding ChunQiu conflict palms with him, he felt his inner power is extraordinarily robust, the power possess an odd coldness which additionally comprises lethal poison, though You TanZhi fell down pathetically, however the poison palm from Ding ChunQiu cannot hurt his opponent meridians, he cannot cease him from exerting inner power, by way of inner power and poison, You TanZhi was not at an obstacle, why the necessity to beg for mercy? Might or not it’s that he intentionally ridiculed him? He stroll just a few steps in the direction of You TanZhi and ask: “You might be asking me to spare you life, is it the reality or your faking it?”
You TanZhi kowtow and mentioned: “Junior is honest, i urge Elder to spare my life.”
Ding ChunQiu contemplated: “I do not know what unusual encounter this man met, he gathered extra poison than me, his a uncommon treasure. I must recruit this man learn the way he how he observe his abilities, after which take in all of the poison from his physique, after which kill him. Will not or not it’s a waste if i simply kill him like this?” He press his palm on You TanZhi’s iron head, channeled his inner power and mentioned: “Except you settle for me as your Grasp, else why ought to i spare you life?”
You TanZhi felt as if his head was being roasted, his face felt extraordinarily scorching, he was very scared. After being tortured by AhZi, he had lengthy resigned himself to adversity, no matter good or evil, unyielding integrity, he forgotten all about them, he solely hope to protect his life, he rapidly mentioned: “Grasp, You TanZhi is prepared to be your disciple, i urge Grasp to just accept me.”
Ding ChunQiu was overjoyed and mentioned: “You need me to be your Grasp, why not. However our Sect has many guidelines and regulation, are you able to abide all of them? Do you wholeheartedly settle for my orders and by no means dare to defy?” You TanZhi mentioned: “Disciple is prepared to abide by the principles and observe Grasp.” Ding ChunQiu mentioned: “If i wish to take your life, you’re prepared to provide it up?” You TanZhi mentioned: “This … this … … ” Ding ChunQiu mentioned: “Assume by way of it correctly, in case you are prepared simply say you’re prepared, in case you are not prepared simply say so.”
You TanZhi contemplated: “You wish to take my life, in fact i’m not prepared. If it actually attain such a state, then i’ll merely escape, if i fail to flee then even when i’m not prepared there’s nothing i can do about it.” He replied: “Disciple is prepared to die for Grasp.” Ding ChunQiu snigger and mentioned: “Very Good, excellent. Inform me all about your life experiences.”
You TanZhi didn’t want to discuss his life experiences or current misfortune, he mentioned his a farm boy, he was captured by the Liao throughout their raid they usually put a iron masks on his head. Ding ChunQiu inquired concerning the unusual poison in his physique, You TanZhi solely revealed how he met the frost silkworm and Monk HuiJing, how he stole the frost silkworm, he lied that he was by accident bitten by the silkworm, thus his physique was frozen strong and the silkworm simply died, he didn’t point out about AhZi or how she use him to coach her poison palm. Ding ChunQiu press for extra particulars concerning the look and form of the frost silkworm, his face revealed envy and admiration. You TanZhi contemplated: “If i discuss concerning the guide with unusual drawings, he will certainly snatch it and never return it.” Ding ChunQiu ask him about his unusual martial arts however he didn’t reveal the reality.
Ding ChunQiu didn’t know concerning the martial arts of the [Tendon-Changing Sutra], he noticed You TanZhi martial artwork was solely mediocre, however his Yin-Frost inner power is only because of the miraculous impact of the frost silkworm, he cursed in his coronary heart: “This divine silkworm, to assume it was absorbed by some unusual coincidence, its actually a pity.” After considering for some time, he ask: “The monk who captured this frost silkworm, his from MinZhong Temple in Nanjing?” You TanZhi mentioned: “Sure.”
Ding ChunQiu mentioned: “This HuiJing monk mentioned the frost silkworm originated from the summit of KunLun Mountains. Superb, since 1 frost silkworm got here from there, there have to be 2 or 3 extra. However KunLun Mountain’s radius is just a few thousand li, with out an expertise information to level the best way it will be troublesome to catch the frost silkworm.” He personally skilled the divine impact of the frost silkworm, he felt it was much more priceless than the [Divine Wooden King Tripod], the prime job is to first seize Monk HuiJing and ask him to cleared the path to KunLun Mountain to seize the frost silkworm. Monk HuiJing is from Shaolin, initially its a messy affair to mess with him however fortunately his at present primarily based in Nanjing and this makes it simpler to seize him. Directly he ordered You TanZhi to carry out the rites and formally take him in as his disciple.
The remainder of the disciples noticed their Grasp particularly attentive in the direction of You TanZhi, naturally they heap tons of praises and tried to get into his good books. These bunch of disciples had overtly curse their Grasp and surrendered to the enemy, Ding ChunQiu nonetheless have makes use of for them and thus he pretended to overlook about their betrayal, furthermore he had foresaw their betrayal and he was not too indignant about it.
The group travelled north east. You TanZhi adopted behind Ding ChunQiu, he noticed his sleeves fluttering within the wind his footsteps mild, he appear like a god, he felt his admiration rising: “I’ve such an unimaginable Grasp, it is actually because of the success gathered by my earlier life.”

Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “third youthful brother, keep your hand!” Bao BuTong didn’t assault, his eyes shifted in the direction of his elder brother. Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “Our Gusu Murong household has no feud with XingXiu Sect, our 4th youthful brother has good intentions in eradicating the iron masks, why did your XingXiu Sect injure him?

The poison contracted by Feng BoE is the lethal poison of the frost silkworm, drive out by the inner power of You TanZhi’s [Tendon-Changing Sutra], to not point out that Ding ChunQiu didn’t have the antidote for it, even when he did had it why would he give up it? Ding ChunQiu increase his head and snigger in the direction of the heaven and shouted: “Ah Wu Liu Lu Gong! Ah Wu Liu Lu Gong!” and flick his sleeves, producing a burst of wind. Out of the blue the XingXiu disciples all rush out of the pavilion and rapidly ran away.
Deng BaiChuan and the remainder of the Shaolin monks felt this gust of wind irritated their eyes, it is actually laborious to bear and their tears rolled down endlessly, they might not open their eyes, they secretly curse: “Not good!” they knew Ding ChunQiu’s sleeve comprises poison powder, with this flick of his sleeves, all of the poison bought scattered.

As he was getting scared and anxious, he heard the sound of footsteps, GongYe Gan increase his head, he noticed Deng BaiChuan supporting Bao BuTong, they stroll rapidly. GongYe Gan had an enormous shock, he mentioned: “Large brother, third youthful brother is injured?” Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “He bought poisoned by that iron-head man.” After some time XuanNan and the remainder of the monks additionally return to the pavilion. XuanTong was leaning on Xu Zhu’s again, his enamel was making chattering sounds. XuanNan, Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan take a look at one another in worry, they had been at a loss on what to do.
Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “That iron-head man and third youthful brother conflict palm, after that he additionally conflict palm with Grasp XuanTong. We did not anticipate….did not anticipate the poison of XingXiu Sect to be so highly effective.”
XuanNan took out a small field from his bosom, he mentioned: “Our college’s [Six Solar Energy Pill] is efficient in countering frost poison.” He take away the lid of the field and took out 3 blood-red tablets, he gave 2 of them to Deng BaiChuan and fed the third capsule to XuanTong.

Out of the blue, XuanTong’s physique swayed, his enamel begin chattering once more, he instantly sat down and channelled his inner power and mentioned: “Martial….martial brother, this frost…..frost poison is…..may be very odd….” XuanNan rapidly channelled his inner power to help him. The three of them circulated their inner power repeatedly, the frost poison felt higher for a second, however it flare up once more instantly, this went on till nightfall, the three of them had already devour 3 [Six Solar Energy Pill], however the frost poison was not repelled in any respect. XuanNan introduced 10 tablets with him and his left with 1, he divided it into three elements and gave the three of them 1 every. Bao BuTong refuse to take it, he mentioned: “Even when i devour 100 tablets, it….it will not….”
XuanNan was at his wits finish, he mentioned: “Benefactor Bao is right, this [Six Solar Energy Pill] will not be the right treatment, our inner power can also’t suppress this Yin-poison. For my part, now we have to ask Divine Doctor Xue, nickname ‘Enemy of King of Hell’, he can cured no matter troublesome sickness.” Bao BuTong mentioned: “Nice Grasp, the whereabouts of this Divine Doctor?” XuanNan mentioned: “Divine Doctor Xue dwell in Ancestor-Willow City at YangZhiXi, its not removed from right here.

Nonetheless, everyone seems to be afraid of my younger grasp’s ‘Returning you with your personal transfer’, however Divine Doctor Xue will not be afraid. Sooner or later, if the Divine Doctor is dying, he solely have to search out my younger grasp and together with his ‘Returning you with your personal transfer’, his…..his…his previous life will be saved.”
Everybody snigger out loud, they left the pavilion. They attain a small city and employed 3 carriages to let the three injured males to relaxation and recuperate. Deng BaiChuan additionally purchased just a few horses and gave them to Shaolin monks to trip.
After travelling for 4-6 hours, they group need to cease and help XuanTong and the opposite injured males to fight the frost poison. Ultimately, XuanNan didn’t have any inhibition and he used the divine abilities of Shaolin to assist Bao BuTong and Feng BoE to fight the poison. Though the path to Ancestor-Willow City will not be too far, however it move by way of rugged mountain path they usually had quite a few delays, they lastly attain the city at nightfall on the 4th day. Divine Doctor Xue lived inside the distant mountain 30 li north of the Ancestor-Willow City, fortunately the Divine Doctor clarify the route intimately to XuanNan after they met at JuXian Manor. They group didn’t spend an excessive amount of effort looking out they usually arrived outdoors the house of Divine Doctor Xue.
XuanNan noticed a number of massive homes erected beside the river, there’s an enormous drugs backyard in entrance of the homes, he knew he had arrived on the dwelling of Divine Doctor Xue. He dismounted and step ahead, he noticed two massive white lanterns hanging by the door. He was shocked: “The Xue household has a sick member of the family?” he rush forwards just a few zhang, he noticed just a few sackcloth hanging over the door, a paper streamer to name again the spirit of the lifeless was inserted beside the door, it appears the household is holding a funeral. He noticed two rows of phrases written on the paper lanterns: “The funeral of Xue MuHua, died on the age of 55.” XuanNan had an enormous shock: “Divine Doctor Xue cannot remedy himself and therefore he move away, that is horrible.” As he thought concerning the passing of this previous good friend, any more they’re separated by the nether world, he can not assist however really feel sentimental and sorrowful.
Following behind him is Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan, they got here using on horses, each of them gasp in unison: “Ah Ya!”
Out of the blue they heard cries from inside the home, its the widow: “My husband, you will have divine medical abilities, who would have anticipate you to contract this acute illness, you abandon me and left alone. Husband, though you’re referred to as ‘Enemy of King of Hell’, you continue to cannot beat the King of Hell, if you go to the nether world, the King of Hell will settle this rating with you, you’re in for a tough time!”
After some time, the three carriages and 6 Shaolin monks arrived. Deng BaiChuan dismounted and mentioned loudly: “Grasp XuanNan from Shaolin Temple, together with some mates, now we have some issues and search the assistance of Divine Doctor Xue.” His voice rang out like a big bell, the cries from inside the home stopped.
After some time, an elder step out of the home, his dressed like a servant, tears flowing down his face, his may be very unhappy, he beat his chest and mentioned: “Previous grasp died yesterday afternoon, you all…..you all cannot see him anymore.”
XuanNan press his palms collectively and ask: “What’s the sickness contracted by Mr Xue?” the previous servant replied: “I do not know, he simply all of the sudden cease respiratory. Previous grasp supplies therapy for others, no matter drugs he prescribes the sickness shall be cured….however….however….for himself….” XuanNan ask once more: “Is there anybody left in Mr Xue’s household?” the previous servant replied: “None, nobody.” Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan gave one another a look, they felt the servant’s tone didn’t include any disappointment when he mentioned it. Furthermore, they heard the cries of the widow simply now. XuanNan sigh and mentioned: “Life and demise is predestined, please lead us to his coffin and let pay our final respect.” The previous servant mentioned: “This…..this…..okay.” he led the group and entered the home.
GongYe Gan was 1 step behind, he whispered to Deng BaiChuan: “Large brother, i believe there’s one thing odd about this incident, that previous servant’s behaviour is suspicious.” Deng BaiChuan nod his head and adopted the previous servant to the mourning corridor.
The furnishings within the mourning corridor is crude, some objects weren’t place appropriately, the spirit pill comprises the phrases: “Memorial pill of Xue MuHua”, the phrases had been robust and forceful, clearly its written by somebody with deep studying, undoubtedly not written by the previous servant. Deng BaiChuan famous all these particulars however he didn’t remark. All of them paid their respects earlier than the memorial pill. GongYe Gan flip his head, he noticed over 10 garments hanging on a bamboo pole within the courtyard, there may be garments for married lady and some garments for youngsters, he thought: “Divine Doctor Xue clearly had a spouse and youngsters, why did that previous servant say there is not any one within the household?”
XuanNan mentioned: “We got here from afar to hunt therapy from Divine Doctor Xue, we by no means anticipate Mr Xue to move away, that is actually unhappy. It is getting late now, we want to keep for the evening in your esteemed dwelling.” The previous servant look very reluctant, he mentioned: “This…..this……en, fantastic! I invite all of you relaxation within the corridor, i’ll go put together the meals.” XuanNan mentioned: “Housekeeper you do not have to spend an excessive amount of effort, easy rice and greens is sufficient.” The previous servant replied: “Sure, sure! Everybody please sit down and relaxation.” He led the group to the outer corridor, he then entered the internal corridor.
After a very long time, the previous servant didn’t come out to serve tea. XuanNan contemplated: “This previous servant simply expertise the demise of his grasp, its unavoidable that his confuse. Sigh, my martial brother XuanTong contracted this frost poison, how ought to we cope with it?” the group waited for over an hour, however the previous servant nonetheless didn’t seem. Bao BuTong felt stressed, he mentioned: “I’ll go discover some water to drink” Xu Zhu mentioned: “Mr Bao, please sit down and relaxation. I’ll go assist the previous servant to boil the water.” He stood up and entered the internal corridor. GongYe Gan needed to look at the actions round the home, he mentioned: “I’ll accompany you.”
Each of them entered the internal corridor. The residence of Xue is kind of massive, they’ve 5 corridor, however they didn’t see the slightest hint of an individual’s persence. Each of them entered the kitchen however the previous servant couldn’t be discovered anyplace.
GongYe Gan knew one thing will not be proper, he rapidly went again to the outer corridor and mentioned: “One thing will not be proper on this home, i believe Divine Doctor Xue is perhaps faking his demise.” XuanNan stood up and ask: “What ought to we do about this?” GongYe Gan mentioned: “Nice Grasp, i wish to look at the coffin.” The group rush to the mourning corridor, he prolonged his hand to raise the coffin, all of the sudden he had an odd thought, he rapidly withdraw his hand, he took a shirt hanging on the bamboo pole and wrap it round his palms. He gathered his inner power and lifted the coffin, he felt it was very heavy, the coffin undoubtedly didn’t include a corpse. He mentioned: “Divine Doctor Xue actually faked his demise.”
Feng BoE took out his blade and mentioned: “Pry open the coffin lid and look inside.” GongYe Gan mentioned: “This individual is named Divine Doctor, his undoubtedly an professional in poison, 4th youthful brother, you must watch out.” Feng BoE mentioned: “I’ll maintain that in thoughts.” He inserted the tip of the blade between the lid and the coffin, he push upward, there was a creaking sound and the coffin lid is slowly lifted. Feng BoE held his breath, his afraid poison powder would possibly come out of the coffin.
Bao BuTong stroll to the courtyard and caught two hen, he return to the mourning corridor, he increase his palms and threw the 2 hen, the chickens crow loudly and transfer move the coffin and landed in entrance of the memorial pill. The chickens transfer in the direction of the course of the courtyard, however after just a few steps it collapsed, their ft twitch just a few occasions and it cease shifting and died. The wind blew from the hall, the feathers on the chickens all scattered and flew up within the air. Everybody was dumbstruck after they noticed this. The chickens simply died of poisoning and all its feathers instantly drop off, it may be mentioned that the poison is actually violent. Nobody dare to go close to the coffin.
XuanNan mentioned: “Benefactor Deng, what’s the motive behind this? Why did Divine Doctor Xue faux his personal demise?” as he end he leap upward, his left hand seize the crossbeam, he look contained in the coffin, the coffin is crammed with rocks, inside the rocks is an enormous bowl, the bowl is crammed with clear water. This bowl of clear water is clearly the poison. XuanNan shook his head and bounce down, he mentioned: “Even when Benefactor Xue refuses to supply therapy, there is not any want to put such elaborate lure to hurt us. Shaolin had no grievance with him, this type of behaviour, is not it unjustifiable? Might or not it’s…..might or not it’s…..” he mentioned ‘might or not it’s’ twice and shut his mouth, he thought: “might or not it’s he has some enormous grievances with Gusu Murong household?”
Bao BuTong mentioned: “There no want so that you can guess, my younger grasp Murong has by no means met Divine Doctor Xue, there is not any must even point out hatred or vengeance. If his our enemy, even when our poison is 10 occasions extra insufferable, we’ll by no means come right here and beg him for therapy. You assume the one surname Bao and surname Feng is rubbish?” XuanNan place his palms collectively and mentioned: “Benefactor Bao is right, previous monk guess wrongly.” His an eminent monk, since his coronary heart did suspect them, even when he didn’t say it out loud, he ought to nonetheless shoulder the blame.
Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “Poison fuel is filling your complete space, its not handy to remain right here, let’s return to the internal corridor.” The group went to the internal corridor, they talk about with one another however nonetheless couldn’t guess why Divine Doctor Xue faux his personal demise and lay down the poison lure. Bao BuTong mentioned: “This Divine Doctor Xue is so vicious, let’s simply use hearth and torch this complete place down.” Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “We won’t try this, Divine Doctor Xue remains to be thought-about to be a good friend of Shaolin, since Grasp XuanNan is right here we can not act rashly.”
At present, the environment is pitch black, there is not any mild within the corridor, everyone seems to be thirsty and hungry however they dare not drink the tea and water present in the home. XuanNan mentioned: “Let’s go to a close-by farm home to ask for some water and meals. Benefactors what do you consider this concept?” Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “Sure. However its finest that we do not eat any meals or drink inside 3 li radius. This Divine Doctor Xue put alot of effort in his schemes, he will not cease at simply placing a coffin, we’ll really feel terribly apologetic if nice grasp will get implicated once more.” Though he and GongYe Gan knew the difficulty was not attributable to them, however the repute of Gusu Murong’s ‘Returning you with your personal transfer’ is just too nice, they made numerous enemies within the martial arts franity, some family of Divine Doctor Xue may need been by accident killed and this blood-debt is place on Gusu Murong’s household.
All of them stood up and stroll in the direction of the entrance door, all of the sudden they noticed shiny mild flashing within the west, a stream of flame dispersed and switch into inexperienced color, it coated your complete sky and got here raining down, its magnificent and exquisite. Feng BoE mentioned: “Yi, who launch this firework? Now will not be the Lantern pageant or the Mid-autumn pageant, why are individuals releasing fireworks?” after some time, orange-yellow fireworks rise as much as the sky, it appear like hundreds of flying stars colliding with one another.
GongYe Gan considered it and mentioned: “This isn’t fireworks, it the sign from the enemy to execute a shock assault.” Feng BoE shouted: “Great, great, great! Let’s battle to our hearts content material!”
Deng BaiChuan mentioned: “third brother and 4th brother, go wait within the corridor, i’ll block the doorway, 2nd brother will block the rear. Grasp XuanNan, this matter doesn’t concern Shaolin, please simply stand apart and watch, there is not any want to assist, our Murong household thanks on your nice kindness.”
XuanNan mentioned: “Benefactor Deng why are you saying this? Even when the enemy has some hatred in the direction of you, there have to be some fact and falsehood or misunderstanding, now we have to be neutral, we can not permit them to reap the benefits of your misfortune and depend on their numbers to win. If it is the gang of individuals dispatch by Divine Doctor Xue, they lay down this lure and tried to poison us, we share a standard enemy, how can we stand by and do nothing? Everybody, put together your self to satisfy the enemy!” HuiFang, Xu Zhu and the remainder of the monks agreed in unison. XuanTong mentioned: “Benefactor Deng, i and your two brothers share the identical poison, we should always collaborate and repel the enemy.”
As they had been speaking, one other two fireworks stand up into the sky, this time it was a lot nearer. After some time, one other two fireworks seem, a complete of six fireworks had been fired. The form and color of the fireworks had been totally different, some appear like a big pen, some look chessboard, some appear like an axe, some appear like massive peony. After the fireworks had been fired, the sky was pitch black once more.
XuanNan ordered the six Shaolin disciples to protect all 4 sides of the home. However after a very long time, they didn’t hear any motion from the enemy.
Everybody held their breath and focus their consideration, after the time taken to eat a meal, they all of the sudden hear a feminine voice singing to the east: “For days my eyebrows are unpainted, and my handkerchief soaked in tears. Since your Majesty cares nothing for me, why ought to I take care of my seems? How can a mere chest of pearls carry solace to my lonely existence?”
When the voice end singing the tune, instantly it flip into the voice of a person and mentioned: “AiYo, Woman Jiang, I’ve not seen you for a very long time, i miss you very a lot, i bestow you a string of pearls, Woman Jiang please settle for it.” After ending, the voice flip right into a feminine and mentioned: “Your Majesty have already got Consort Yang as your companion, you even abandon your courtroom classes, when did you ever place this ill-fated lady in your coronary heart, sigh……” as she mentioned this, she beginning crying.
Xu Zhu and the remainder of the monks are unfamiliar with worldly affairs, the individual all of the sudden turned female and male, not figuring out what sort of trick it’s, they felt depressing. Deng BaiChun and the remainder knew the individual was performing out the story between Emperor Ming of Tang and the Plum Consort, all of the sudden turning into Plum Consort, all of the sudden turning into the Emperor, the voice and tone remarkably correct, however this individual all of the sudden seem at this juncture, they’ve some misgivings and uncertain concerning the individual’s intentions.
The individual mentioned: “My girl, do not cry, rapidly put together a feast, you’ll play the flute and i’ll personally sing a tune so that you can relieve your worries.” The individual’s voice change to a feminine and mentioned: “Lowly concubine wash her face with tears each night, i solely hope to see your Majesty once more, now that i get to see you once more, i’ll die contented, goodbye, *cough*……*cough*…..”
Bao BuTong shouted loudly: “I’m An Lushan! Tang Emperor Li Longji, you’re a muddleheaded emperor, rapidly hand over Yang Yuhuan!”
The individual cease crying instantly and gave an “Ah” sound, apparently he had an enormous shock.
The environment is silent once more.
