After some time, they odor a faint flowery scent. XuanNan shouted: “The enemy is releasing poison, shortly maintain your breath, odor the antidote.” However after some time, he felt unusual, he was clear-headed and refreshed, it appears the flowery scent didn’t carry any poison.
The individual stated: “seventh sister, is that you just? There some unusual individual in fifth brother’s home, he claims his An Lushan.” A feminine voice stated: “Solely massive brother has but to reach. 2nd brother, third brother, 4th brother, sixth brother, eighth brother, allow us to reveal ourselves!”
When she end, there was a shiny gentle outdoors the door, an odd ball of sunshine shone on 5 males and 1 lady. A black beard previous man amongst them stated: “fifth brother, shortly come out.” His proper hand-held onto a sq. picket board. The feminine is a reasonably middle-age married lady. For the opposite 4 males, 2 of them are dressed as students, 1 of them appears to be a carpenter, hand holding onto an axe and carrying an extended noticed on his again. The opposite man is green-faced and long-toothed, pink hair and inexperienced beard, his look extraordinarily scary, he seem like a monster, his carrying a shiny shining brocade gown.
Deng BaiChuan repair his focus, he noticed the individual oil painted his face, it was not his unique look, he costume himself like an opera actor, thus the one appearing as Tang Emperor and Plum Consort is clearly this individual, Deng BaiChuan stated loudly: “Could i request the honorable names of girls and gents? I’m Deng BaiChuan from Gusu Murong household.”
The opposite occasion didn’t have the prospect to answer as a black determine rush out from the principle corridor, his blade shining, he chop 7 occasions in direction of the opera actor, it was Feng BoE. The opera actor was caught off guard, he conceal to the east and dodge to the west, he was in a clumsy scenario. The opera actor began singing: “My energy plucked up the hills, my would possibly shadowed the world; However the occasions have been towards me, and Dapple (identify of warhorse) runs no extra; when Dapple runs no extra, what then can ……” however Feng BoE assault was too fast and he couldn’t end the third sentence.
The black bearded man cursed: “Hey you’re too unreasonable, speeding out and hacking and chopping randomly, eat my [Big Iron Net]” the picket board in his palms flashed and he whack straight in direction of the highest of Feng BoE’s head.
Feng BoE felt some misgivings: “I’ve fought over a whole lot of main and minor battle, however i’ve by no means seen such sq. wooden board getting used as a weapon.” He increase his broadsword and chop in direction of the board. There was a ringing sound, the broadsword hit the sting of the board, however the board was motionlessly, though the board might appear to be it is product of wooden however its really product of metal, the outside of the board is painted to make it resemble wooden. Feng BoE promptly withdraw his broadsword, unexpectedly when he contract his arm the broadsword couldn’t be withdrawn, it was caught firmly on the metal board. Feng BoE was shock, he channeled his inside vitality and exerted his drive, solely now did the broadsword separate from the metal board, he shouted: “What an irregular object! Is that this metal board product of lodestone?”
That individual smiled and stated: “Probably not, not likely! That is my working device.”Feng BoE shot one other look at it, he noticed many horizontal and vertical strains on the board, it is a Go (Chess) board, he stated: “What a bizarre object, come i’ll combat with you!” he swing his broadsword just like the wind, attacking sooner and sooner, however he dare not let the broadsword contact the magnetic chess board.
The opera actor regain his breath and sing once more: “When Dapple runs no extra, what then am i able to do? Ah, Yu, my Yu, what is going to your destiny be?” all of a sudden he imitated the voice of a feminine, he stated in a delicate coy voice: “Fear not my Lord, though in the present day’s battle is unsuccessful, lowly concubine will observe you and combat our means out of this encirclement.”
Bao BuTong stated: “Shameless King of Chu and Consort Yu, shortly commit suicide, i’m Han Xin.” He soar and prolonged his palm, making an attempt to seize the shoulder of the opera actor. The opera actor prevented it and sing: “An awesome wind got here fourth, the clouds rose on excessive. The place will i discover…..AiYa, my Gaozu of Han killed your Han Xin.” His left hand went to his waist and took out a mushy whip and he lash it out in direction of Bao BuTong.
XuanNan noticed each side are appearing like youngsters, however their martial arts are strong, solely that they do not know one another, his eyebrows narrowed barely and stated: “Everybody please quickly keep your palms, allow us to make clear the matter first.”
However asking Feng BoE to remain his palms and cease combating is nearly unimaginable, when he contracted the frost poison, his bodily energy and stamina was not the identical as earlier than, as well as the frost poison can flare up anytime, it is extraordinarily harmful, his broadsword flash about as if it was shredding the wind, he wished to realize victory shortly.
Because the 4 of them engaged in fierce battle, somebody got here out of the principle corridor, there was a clashing sound as two Buddhist monk’s knife collided, an awe-inspiring entrance, it was XuanTong. He shouted: “You bunch of depraved thieves, utilizing poison and harming folks, previous monk will break his taboo and kill you all!” he was affected by the frost poison for a lot of days, he couldn’t vent his frustration, thus he didn’t hassle to make clear and assault the 2 students along with his twin-knife. One scholar dodge and prevented, the opposite scholar took out a judge-pen weapon from his bosom, he executed his abilities and begin combating with XuanTong.
The opposite scholar shakes his head back and forth and stated: “That is so unusual! Why is that this monk so scorching tempered, i ponder the place he comes from?” he prolonged his palms into his bosom and felt round, he stated: “Yi, the place did it go?” he contact his left and proper pockets, shake his sleeves, and pat his chest, he cannot discover it anyplace.
Xu Zhu was sympathetic, he ask: “Benefactor, what are you in search of?” the scholar stated: “This massive monk’s martial arts is extraordinarily excessive, my brother shouldn’t be his match, i wish to discover my weapon and be a part of the combat, Yi, unusual, unusual! The place did my weapon go?” he knock his brow and contemplated deeply. Xu Zhu can’t assist however giggle, he thought: “Popping out for a combat however forgetting the place you place your weapon, that is fascinating.” He ask once more: “Benefactor, what sort of weapon you employ?”
The scholar stated: “Diplomacy is best than violence, my primary weapon is a e book.” Xu Zhu stated: “What sort of e book? Martial arts guide?” the scholar stated: “No, no. It is the Analects of Confucius, i wish to use the phrases of sage to reform my opponent.” Bao BuTong interrupted: “You’re a scholar, you’ll be able to’t even memorize the Analects of Confucius, what is the level of finding out?” The scholar stated: “Elder brother, you solely know a part of the knowledge. The ‘Analects of Confucius’, ‘Mencius’, ‘Spring and Autumn Annals’, ‘E-book of Songs’, i do know all of them by coronary heart. However a Buddhist monk solely research Buddhist scriptures, they won’t learn about Confucius literature, i can recite it out by coronary heart but when he has no data about it, will not or not it’s ineffective? Thus, i need to present him the unique textual content as proof, then he cannot deny it or attempt to dispute it, solely then will or not it’s helpful. There’s a widespread saying, ‘Use e book as proof’.” As he stated this, he saved on looking and patting round his physique.
Bao BuTong shouted: “Little grasp, shortly assault him!” Xu Zhu stated: “I’ll look ahead to Benefactor to search out his weapon, after that we are able to combat.” The scholar stated: “The Track and Chu fought at a deep river, the Chu folks has but to cross the river, their formation not prepared, its a very good alternative to assault, however Duke Xiang of Track stated: It isn’t the best way of nobleman to benefit from the plight of others. Little grasp, your coronary heart is benevolent, the identical as Duke Xiang.”
The carpenter noticed XuanTong’s twin-knife flying and twisting round, his strikes are extraordinarily fast and highly effective, the 2 students shall be at risk if the combat drags on additional, he raised his axe and wished to help them in battle. GongYe Gan wave his palm and strike in direction of him. GongYe Gan’s look is refine and cultured, however his palm energy is vigorous and forceful, his nicknamed ‘Jiangnan Quantity Two’, final time he competed wine consuming and match palm with Xiao Feng, though he misplaced, Xiao Feng had deep respect for him, it may be seen that his inside vitality is extraordinary, the carpenter slanted his physique to keep away from the palm and hack his axe horizontally.
The scholar nonetheless couldn’t discover his ‘Analects of Confucius’, he noticed his companion judge-pen motion is absolutely messy, it actually is not a match towards XuanTong’s twin-knife, he stated to XuanTong: “Hey, massive monk. Confucius says: [The superior man does not, even for the space of a single meal, act contrary to virtue. In moments of haste, he cleaves to it. In seasons of danger, he cleaves to it.] Confucius says: [To subdue one’s self and return to propriety, is perfect virtue. If a man can for one day subdue himself and return to propriety, all under heaven will ascribe perfect virtue to him.] Confucius additionally says: [Look not at what is contrary to propriety; listen not to what is contrary to propriety; speak not what is contrary to propriety; make no movement which is contrary to propriety.] You wave your twin-knife randomly, you’re ruthless and solely thinks about killing folks, you didn’t present self-restraint, that is opposite to propriety.”
Xu Zhu whispered to Shaolin monk HuiFang: “Martial uncle, is that this individual pretending to be dumb?” HuiFang shook his head and stated: “I do not know. Our grasp instructed us to watch out when going out of Shaolin Temple, martial artists are crafty and sly, they will come up all kinds of humorous concepts and traps.”
The bookworm stated to XuanTong once more: “Large monk, Confucius says: [Men of principle are sure to be bold, but those who are bold may not always be men of principle.] You’re courageous and daring, however you may not be benevolent, you can’t be thought-about to be a real gentleman. Confucius says: [What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others] If different folks wish to kill you, you’ll naturally be unwillingly to die, since you’re unwillingly to die, how are you going to kill different folks?”
XuanTong have interaction this bookworm and each of them soar about, he wave his twin-knife to assault, the bookworm observe XuanTong and all of a sudden transfer east and west, generally left and proper, his at all times inside 3 foot of XuanTong, continually advising and persuading, it may be seen that his martial artwork shouldn’t be weak. XuanTong was secretly vigilant: “This rascal is spouting nonsense, clearly his making an attempt to distract me and divert my focus, as soon as he discover a hole in my strikes, he will certainly exploit it and assault. This individual’s martial artwork is above the scholar with the judge-pen, i positively have to protect towards him.” Thus, he spent 60% of his focus to protect towards the bookworm and spent 40% to give attention to attacking the scholar with the judge-pen. The scenario of the scholar with the judge-pen improved significantly.
After exchanging 10 strikes, XuanTong was getting impatient, he shouted: “Get misplaced!” and flip his Buddhist monk’s knife, smashing the deal with of the knife in direction of the chest of the bookworm. The bookworm prevented it and stated: “Nice grasp your martial artwork is extraordinarily sturdy, my 4th brother and that i, though its two towards one we’d not be your match, thus i counsel you with smart phrases and hope that we are able to cease combating, Confucius says: [Tsang, my doctrine is that of an all-pervading unity.] Tsang stated: [The doctrine of master is to be true to the principles of our nature and the benevolent exercise of them to others – this and nothing more.] As human-beings, we should be ready to forgive, we can’t be unreasonable and barbaric.”
XuanTong felt indignant, he slash his knife horizontally and curse: “Be ready to forgive? Be compassionate? Why did you place lethal poison within the coffin to hurt others? If previous monk shouldn’t be cautious, he would have died way back, you continue to dare say: [What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others], you wish to die of poisoning?”
The bookworm shortly retreated two steps and stated: “Unusual! Unusual! Who put poison within the coffin? The coffin is for corpses. Confucius says: [Li died, he had a coffin but no outer shell.] There may be poison within the coffin, will not the corpse die of poisoning? Oh wait, the corpse died way back.”
Bao BuTong interrupted: “Not true, Not true. You didn’t put any corpse within the coffin, solely poison, you wished to poison us, the residing folks.” The bookworm shook his head and stated: “You gauge the center of a gentleman with your individual imply measures. Since there isn’t a coffin right here, there isn’t a poison.”
Bao BuTong stated: “Confucius says: [Of all people, female and vile people are the most difficult people.] You’re a vile individual.” He pointed on the middle-age lady and stated: “You’re a feminine, each of you’re certainly tough folks. Are the phrases of Confucius improper?” the bookworm was stumped for phrases, he lastly stated: “You digress from the principle matter, i haven’t got to hassle about your phrases or give a reply.”
The bookworm is debating with Bao BuTong, XuanTong had one much less individual to take care of and he intensified his assaults, the judge-pen scholar was immediately in dire scenario. The bookworm transfer nearer to XuanTong and stated: “Confucius says: [If a man be without the virtues proper to humanity, what has he to do with the rites of propriety? If a man be without the virtues proper to humanity, what has he to do with music?] Large monk, you’re with out the virtues correct to humanity, you’re actually disappointing to the acute.”
XuanTong was livid, he stated: “I’m a Buddhist, detach from worldly affairs, you rotten scholar speaking about literature, etiquette and music, benevolent or not, you can not sway my coronary heart.”
The bookworm increase his knuckles and knocks his brow, he stated: “Very true! Very true! I studied an excessive amount of and have become silly, i’m actually a bookworm. Large monk is clearly a Buddhist, however i counsel you with phrases from Confucius and the standard virtues, naturally you will not perceive it.”
Feng BoE fought for a very long time with the chessboard-wielding individual, it arduous to foretell who will win, after a time frame, he begin to really feel the frost poison appearing up in his decrease stomach. Bao BuTong in contrast himself with the opera actor, he felt his opponent’s martial artwork shouldn’t be excessive, however his strikes is extraordinarily sophisticated, generally he acted as Xi Shi (one of many famend 4 Beauties of historical China), his speech and laughter coy, his frown infectious, his steps lithe and sleek, it was the precise method of a lady of peerless class, right away, he began to behave as a tipsy and romantic Li Bai (famend poet), his drunken state unpredictable, his footsteps unsteady. The miraculous factor was that when he acted as completely different character, he at all times had a novel set of martial arts to suit the character, generally he used his versatile whip or flick his lengthy sleeves when appearing as a magnificence, or wave his pen when appearing as a scholar, and Bao BuTong couldn’t take care of him for the second.
The bookworm was immobile for some time, all of a sudden he hum: “Because you gave up immersing in music, you coronary heart ought to have gained benevolence, should you didn’t achieve it shortly, it is already ingrained in your coronary heart?” XuanNan and XuanTong each had an enormous shock, they thought: “This bookworm is extraordinarily educated, he may even recite verses by Easter Jin eminent monk, Kumarajiva.” The bookworm continued buzzing: “In spite of everything, in vacancy, there isn’t a music in coronary heart, in case you are happy with data on Buddhism, you aren’t enlightened by its teachings. Falsehood lies and deceit, it is not going to cease close to your coronary heart. Large monk, what’s the subsequent two verse, i forgot.” XuanTong stated: “Buddhist teachings acquired by a humane individual, it’ll reveal itself when desired by the center.”
The bookworm giggle heartily and stated: “Enlightening! Enlightening! You’re a nice Buddhist grasp, how are you going to not be humane? Ethical rules beneath the heaven, all of them are the identical. I counsel you to let go of your hatred and switch again to appropriate path.”
XuanTong coronary heart was shaken, he all of a sudden obtain enlightenment and stated: “Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Namo Amituofo, Namo Amituofo.” There was two clanking sound, the twin-Buddhist monk’s knife was thrown on the ground, he sat down on the ground, his face revealed a smile, his eyes closed.
The judge-pen scholar was getting excited within the combat, however all of a sudden seeing this behaviour, he had an enormous shock and didn’t assault with this judge-pen.
Xu Zhu stated: “Martial grandfather, did your frost poison flare up?” he prolonged his arm to help him, XuanNan stated: “Do not transfer!” he checked XuanTong’s breath, however he had cease respiratory, he had handed away. XuanNan press each his palms collectively, he chanted the ‘Afterlife Prayer’. The remainder of the Shaolin monk noticed XuanTong had handed away, they began crying, they seize their Buddhist’s workers and Buddhist’s knife, eager to go all out towards the 2 students. XuanNan stated: “Cease! Martial brother XuanTong perceived Tathata in his meditation, his in Nirvana, he has achieved enlightenment, we’ve got to be pleased for him.”
After witnessing this stunning occasion, everybody cease combating instantly and retreated concurrently.
The bookworm shouted: “fifth brother, fifth brother Xue, shortly come out, somebody obtained excited to demise by my phrases. Shortly come out and save him! Rattling Divine Doctor Xue, should you do not come out shortly, this individual will actually die for sure!” Deng BaiChuan stated: “Divine Doctor Xue shouldn’t be in his home, Mr you’re……” the bookworm continues to be shouting hurriedly on the high of his voice: “Xue MuHua, fifth brother Xue, Enemy of King of Hell, Divine Doctor Xue, shortly come out and save him! Your third brother excited somebody until demise, they’re going to make life tough for us.”
Bao BuTong was livid: “You brought on his demise, nonetheless pretending to be a very good man and shedding crocodile tears.” With a ‘Hu’ sound he ship his palm at him, his left hand cross beneath his proper palm, with this transfer [Dragon Searching For Pearl], he made a seize for the beard. The bookworm shortly dodged it. Feng BoE and GongYe Gan was aroused from their earlier combat, they didn’t want to cease and therefore they begin combating once more.
Deng BaiChuan shouted: “Lie down!” his left hand stretch out and seize the again of the opera actor. Deng BaiChuan is chief among the many subordinates of Gusu Murong household, his martial artwork is powerful, inside vitality highly effective and vigorous, though his status is not spectacular, however of those that knew him they can not assist however deeply respect him. He simply caught maintain of the again of the opera actor, he press him down in direction of the ground. The opera actor is sort of agile and nimble, when his left shoulder contact the bottom, he spin his physique on the ground and sweep his proper leg out, kicking in direction of Deng BaiChuan’s leg. This transfer is extraordinarily unusual and fast, Deng BaiChuan is stout and powerful therefore its not handy for him to show or rotate shortly, he noticed this transfer is tough to keep away from, he instantly gathered his inside vitality into his decrease physique to forcibly obtain the kick to his leg, there was a ‘Ka La’ sound, the 2 legs collided and one of many leg broke.
The opera actor saved rolling about and his already just a few zhang away, he shouted: “You treacherous bandit, injuring an trustworthy man, ouch my leg!” plainly when the 2 legs met and the drive collided, the opera actor was not a match towards his opponent’s drive, his leg broke instantly.
The beautiful middle-age lady solely stood courteously by the facet and didn’t take part, when she noticed the opera actor suffered a damaged leg and her different companions additionally at risk, she stated: “Who’re you folks, what’s the motive for occupying my fifth brother’s home? You didn’t make clear the scenario and injure folks?” though she’s questioning the opposite occasion, her tone and method continues to be mushy and refined. The opera actor is mendacity on the bottom, he look upward and noticed two lanterns hanging by the door of the home. He pointed on the lantern and name out in shock: “What? What is that this? What ‘Funeral of Xue MuHua’, my fifth brother died?”
The individual wielding the chessboard, the 2 students, the axe-wielding carpenter, the gorgeous middle-age lady, their gaze adopted the finger and so they noticed the lantern. The candle flame within the lantern had lengthy die out, the encompassing is pitch-black, as everybody was busy combating, nobody paid any consideration to the lantern, solely when the opera actor fell onto the ground did he lastly increase his head and see the wordings on the lantern.
The opera actor burst into tears, he sang: “Alas, alas, my good brother, we swore brotherhood on the peach backyard, we agreed to satisfy on the historical metropolis, you cross the 5 passes, slay six generals, such awe-inspiring would possibly …..” his singing the opera ‘Weeping GuanYu’, however his too agitated and his accent is wrong. The opposite 5 additionally bellowed their grievances:
“Who killed my fifth brother?”
“fifth brother, fifth brother, which damnable assassin hurt you?”
“We’ll combat to the demise with you in the present day!”
XuanNan and Deng BaiChuan gave one another a look, each of them had the identical thought: “These folks appears to be the sworn brothers of Divine Doctor Xue.” Deng BaiChuan stated: “A few of our companions suffered some accidents, we got here right here to request Divine Doctor Xue for medical therapy, however unexpectedly….” the middle-age lady replied: “However unexpectedly he refuse to deal with and also you folks killed him, appropriate?” Deng BaiChuan stated: “No……” he didn’t get the prospect to complete as he noticed the middle-age lady flick her sleeves, all of a sudden he odor a powerful perfume and he instantly turned dizzy, he appears to be standing on mushy cloud and shrouded in mist, he cannot keep his footing. The beautiful middle-age lady stated: “Collapse, collapse!”
Deng BaiChuan was indignant, he shouted: “Depraved witch!” he gathered his vitality into his palm and despatched his palm out. The beautiful middle-age lady noticed Deng BaiChuan shaking and swaying about, his already affected by her assault, unexpectedly he nonetheless handle to ship out his palm. As she was about to dodge the assault, it was too late, the earth-shattering drive got here crashing onto her, her respiratory was quickly obstructed, her physique flew up. There’s a ‘Ka la Ka la’ sound, just a few of her ribs obtained damaged, she fainted earlier than her physique had landed on the bottom. Deng BaiChuan’s imaginative and prescient flip black and he collapsed onto the bottom.
Each side misplaced one in all their fighters, the remaining folks begin combating with one another. XuanNan contemplated: “There may be some unusual issues on this incident, we’ve got to first captured the remainder in order to prevented pointless casualties for each facet.” He stated: “Get my workers!” HuiFang flip round and picked up the Buddhist monk’s workers leaning towards the door, he cross it over to XuanNan. The judge-pen scholar vaulted over and wave his proper hand to assault HuiFang’s chest. XuanNan strike out along with his left palm, his palm had but to reach however the palm drive had already attain his opponent’s again, the scholar was hit and collapsed.

A number of Shaolin monk jumped over and held him down.
The Head-Monk of Shaolin Damo-Corridor is absolutely excellent, as soon as he begin combating, he instantly subdued 3 specialists from the opposing facet.
The axe-wielding carpenter is combating Feng BoE and Bao BuTong, his in dire scenario and is about to undergo a defeat, the chessboard-wielding individual stated: “Overlook it, overlook it! sixth brother, allow us to simply admit defeat, we do not have to hold on enjoying this chess match anymore. Large monk, i wish to ask you, how did my fifth brother offend you, why did you folks kill him?” XuanNan stated: “There isn’t a such matter……”
Earlier than he might end, all of a sudden there may be two ‘Zheng Zheng’ sound of zither, it was transmitted from afar. When the sound is transmitted to their eardrum, everybody’s coronary heart violently palpitated two occasions. XuanNan was startled for the length, one other two ‘Zheng Zheng’ sound rang out. This time the sound is even nearer, and everybody’s coronary heart palpitated much more violently.

Fortunately Bao BuTong shortly wave his palm and guarded him, else the enemy’s axe would have cut up open his shoulder. The bookworm shouted: “Elder brother come over shortly, elder brother come over shortly! The scenario is extraordinarily severe! Why are you shifting so slowly and nonetheless enjoying that silly zither? Confucius says: [When the prince summoned him, without waiting for his carriage to be yoked, he went at once.]”
The sound of zither saved on ringing, an aged man with massive sleeves stroll in direction of them, his brow excessive and protruding, his look odd and historical, his beaming and his expression is extraordinarily amiable, he carried a jade zither in his hand.
When the bookworm and the remainder of his brothers noticed this man, they shouted: “Elder brother!” the aged man stroll in direction of XuanNan, cupped his fists and stated: “Previous man is missing in manners, might i do know the identify of this Shaolin eminent monk?” XuanNan press his palms collectively and stated: “Previous monk is XuanNan.” The person stated: “Hehe, so you’re martial brother XuanNan. Shaolin’s XuanKu should be your youthful martial brother appropriate? Previous man met him a number of occasions earlier than, our dialog is extraordinarily congenial, he should nonetheless be fairly wholesome and powerful.” XuanNan stated sadly: “Martial brother XuanKu was plotted towards by a treacherous disciple, he had handed away and return to Western Paradise.”
The individual stood picket for fairly some time, all of a sudden he leap upwards, it was a zhang excessive, his physique has but to succeed in the bottom however his sorrowful voice might be heard in mid-air, he was crying.

My youthful martial brother XuanNan, he may not have your stage of comprehension, if i play zither for him, most likely its like enjoying zither to a cow, preaching to deaf ears! Alas!

Initially, when XuanNan heard him cry, he thought he was a sentimental individual, overcome by his grief he cried out in sorrow, however subsequently, he came upon that his grieving over the lack of an individual who understands his music, unexpectedly he even stated his enjoying zither to a cow if he needed to play for him. XuanNan is an eminent monk of excessive advantage, he wasn’t offended in any respect, he solely gave a slight smile and thought: “These bunch of persons are loopy and wild. The temperament of this individual is notoriously much like the remainder of his group, birds of a feather flock collectively.”
The individual continued crying: “XuanKu ah, XuanKu, to repay you for being my soul-mate, i put in nice effort and created this new tune for you, its known as ‘Buzzing of A Reed’, this tune is to reward your Shaolin founder Grasp Damo for his nice achievement in crossing the river with a reed.

I’ll play this new tune at his tomb, possibly it will probably assist him to calm down and be carefree, he may even revive from the useless.”
XuanNan stated: “Benefactor, please do not babble nonsense, after my martial brother cross away, his physique had been cremated and switch to ashes.”
The individual was expressionless, all of a sudden he soar up and stated: “Excellent, then it’s a must to give me his ashes.

To chop the lengthy story quick, whoever injure seventh sister is the one at fault. Oh my goodness, eighth brother can be injured, the one who injure him shouldn’t be a very good individual, what number of unhealthy individual are right here? Shortly step up and confess, we’ll brazenly talk about it, there isn’t a room for concession.”
The opera actor name out: “Elder brother, they killed fifth brother, shortly take revenge for fifth brother.” The expression of the individual turned grave, he shouted: “Preposterous! fifth brother is the ‘Enemy of King of Hell’, what can the King of Hell do towards him?” XuanNan stated: “Divine Doctor Xue faked his personal demise, there may be solely poison within the coffin, there isn’t a corpse.” The aged man and the remainder of his brothers have been elated, all of them ask in fast succession:
“Why did fifth brother faux his demise?”
“The place is his useless physique?”
“He did not die, how can there be a useless physique?”
All of the sudden a mushy voice floated from afar: “Xue MuHua, Xue MuHua, your martial uncle is arriving, shortly come out and welcome him.” the voice appears to be breaking but persevering with, the gap could be very far, however the voice is evident and distinct, clearly it transmitted by somebody with very profound inside vitality, its actually no small matter.

The aged man all of a sudden prolonged his hand, he caught maintain of Bao BuTong’s chest acupoints. This transfer is extraordinarily fast, Bao BuTong couldn’t guard towards it in any respect, his already subdued, his physique was lifted up and was shortly carried into the home.
XuanNan and GongYe Gan have been astonished, as they have been about to talk the chessboard wielding individual whispered: “Nice grasp and everybody please go into the home shortly, an especially highly effective satan is coming quickly.” XuanNan possess divine abilities, he hardly ever meet any match within the martial arts fraternity, he isn’t afraid of any massive or small satan, he ask: “Which massive satan?

It is Previous Freak of XingXiu.” XuanNan stated: “If it is the Previous Freak of XingXiu then it could not be a lot better, previous monk is in search of him.” The individual stated: “Nice grasp, you martial artwork is powerful, naturally you aren’t afraid. However everybody right here shall be tortured until demise by him and you’ll the one one left alive, you’re actually merciful.”
His phrases are sarcastic and meant to ridicule, but it surely was additionally correct and true, XuanNan was quickly stumped, he lastly stated: “Good, everybody allow us to go in the home!”
At this second, the zither aged man had hidden Bao BuTong and got here speeding out of the home, he saved urging: “Fast, fast! Nonetheless ready for what?” Feng BoE query him loudly: “The place is my third brother?” the aged man flip his left hand and ship his palm horizontally in direction of Feng BoE proper cheek. The frost poison in Feng BoE had already flare up, its actually arduous to bear, when he noticed the palm coming he shortly decrease his head to keep away from it. Unexpectedly, the aged man didn’t totally execute his palm transfer, all of a sudden he diverted his vitality downwards and he caught Feng BoE’s nape, he stated: “Fast, fast, go in shortly!” he lifted Feng BoE like a rooster and carried him into the home.
GongYe Gan noticed the aged man didn’t have any evil intentions, however each his sworn brothers have been subdued by him with a single transfer, he shouted loudly and was about to combat with him, however the aged man transfer just like the wind, he already rush into the home. The bookworm carried the opera actor, the carpenter supported the gorgeous lady and all of them shortly rush into the home.
XuanNan felt in the present day’s affair is absolutely unusual and bizarre, he didn’t wish to be reckless to keep away from inflicting extra confusion, he stated: “Benefactor GongYe, allow us to simply go in first after which take our time to determine what to do.”
Instantly, Xu Zhu and HuiFang lifted the corpse of XuanTong, GongYe Gan carried Deng BaiChuan and all of them entered the home.
The zither previous man got here out to induce them, however he noticed everybody had entered the home, he shortly shut the entrance door, he went to fetch the door latch. The chessboard wielding individual stated: “Elder brother, it finest if we left this door extensive open, this transfer is named strong but empty, empty but strong. This fashion, he will not dare to enter the home with out cautious consideration.” The aged man stated: “What? Effective, i’ll take heed to you. This……will this work?” he didn’t have any self-confidence in any respect whereas talking.
XuanNan and GongYe Gan gave one another a look, each of them had the identical thought: “This previous man has superior martial arts, how can he be so flustered when coping with necessary issues? This door, it will probably’t even maintain again widespread robbers, how can it cease the Previous Freak of XingXiu, what distinction does it make if the door is open or shut? It appears this individual suffered nice loss towards the Previous Freak of XingXiu, he turned like a hen startled by a bowshot, his terror-stricken as soon as he is aware of the Previous Freak of XingXiu is close by.”
The aged man stated repeatedly: “sixth brother, consider an concept, shortly consider an concept.”
Though XuanNan possess appreciable self-restraint, he was riled up by the fearful method of the previous man, he stated: “Sir, there’s a widespread saying ‘counter troopers with arms, water with earth’, undertake measures applicable to the scenario. Irrespective of how vicious this Previous Freak of XingXiu is, we’ll be a part of palms and combat him collectively, we’d not lose, there is no must be so….so….hei….so cautious and timid.” The candles within the corridor had been lighted, he glimpse his environment, the aged man is terrified, the chessboard wielding man, the bookworm, carpenter, judge-pen wielding scholar, all of them carrying fearful expression. XuanNan personally witness the martial arts of those folks, they don’t seem to be weak, they’re wild and unrestrained, they seem like elegant and unconventional warriors, however now they flip into youngsters and ineffective cowards, it is actually inconceivable.
GongYe Gan noticed Bao BuTong and Feng BoE are positive, each of them sitting on a chair, however their frost poison had flare up and so they shivered continually, he supported Deng BaiChuan to a chair and made him sit down, happily Deng BaiChuan’s pulse is even, his solely in some type of drunken state and he carried on sleeping, his life shouldn’t be in any hazard.
Everybody have a look at one another in dismay, after a brief time frame, the axe-wielding carpenter took out a set sq. from his bosom, he measured the corners of the corridor and shakes his head, he picked up a candlestick and stroll to the rear corridor. Everybody adopted him, they noticed him measuring the 4 corners, all of a sudden he leap up onto the beam and began measuring it, he shakes his head once more and stroll to the rear, stopping in entrance of Divine Doctor Xue’s faux coffin, he have a look at the coffin just a few occasions, shakes his head and stated: “What a pity, what a pity!” the zither aged man stated: “Its ineffective?” the carpenter stated: “It will not work, martial uncle will certainly see by means of it.” the zither man stated in anger: “You…..you continue to name him martial uncle?” the carpenter shakes his head and didn’t reply, he continued strolling to the rear.
GongYe Gan thought: “This individual appears to solely know methods to shake his head, he would not do anything.”
The carpenter measured the corners of the wall, he counted his footsteps and made some calculation along with his fingers, it appears as if his making an attempt to construct a home, he saved counting his steps and stroll to the rear backyard. He held onto the candlestick and contemplated for fairly a while, the hall of the backyard had 5 stone mortars, he grasps just a few dried husks and soil and put them within the mortar, he lifted the big stone pestle by the facet and began pounding the mortar, ‘Peng Peng’, the stone is dense and is forceful because it landed on the mortar.
GongYe Gan gave a sigh and thought: “We’re actually down on luck, assembly these bunch of lunatics, he nonetheless has the temper to pound grains in this sort of dire scenario. It is nonetheless acceptable if his actually pounding grains, however the mortar comprises grain husk and soil, alas!” Bao BuTong and Feng BoE are resting within the corridor as a result of their frost poison, however after some time, additionally they rush to the rear backyard.
‘Peng’, ‘Peng’, ‘Peng’,’Peng’, ‘Peng’, ‘Peng’! The pounding sound uninterrupted.
Bao BuTong stated: “Buddy, you’re pounding the grains for cooking? However you are not pounding grains. I counsel we higher plow the sphere and plant corn seeds, once they develop…..” all of a sudden the southeast nook of the backyard, round 7-8 zhang away, gave a squeaking sound. The sound is mushy however slightly distinctive, XuanNan, GongYe Gan and the remainder look in direction of the path of the sound, they noticed 4 dwarf cassia tree.
‘Peng’, ‘Peng’, the carpenter saved on pounding, however the unusual factor was that the 2nd cassia tree from proper began shaking, little by little it transfer. After some time, everybody understood, when the carpenter pound the mortar, the cassia tree will transfer round an inch. The zither man cheered and rush in direction of the cassia tree, he stated in a low voice: “Not unhealthy, not unhealthy!” everybody adopted him and ran over. The cassia tree had transfer apart, revealing a giant stone slab, an iron ring is hooked up to the slab.
GongYe Gan was impressed and he felt ashamed, he stated: “This secret underground mechanism is ingeniously organized, it is actually incredible. My expensive good friend, you found it inside such a short while, you’re actually clever and smart, no much less inferior than the creator of the mechanism.” Bao BuTong stated: “Not true, not true, how you recognize this mechanism is not created by him?” GongYe Gan stated: “I stated his skill and knowledge is not inferior to the creator, if he’s the creator, then his skill and knowledge is of course not inferior to himself.” Bao BuTong stated: “Not true, not true. His not inferior, however possibly he’s superior. However how can his skill and knowledge be superior to himself?”
The carpenter pounded one other ten occasions, the large stone slab is totally uncovered. The zither aged man grip the iron ring and pulled it, but it surely didn’t transfer an inch, as he was about to channel his inside vitality and provides it one other pull, the carpenter cry out in worry: “Elder brother, cease!” he soar up and put the stone pestle on one other mortar, he pulled down his pants and began urinating, he shouted: “Everybody, shortly come over, allow us to urinate collectively!” The aged man was began and shortly put down the iron ring, in a cut up second, the chessboard wielding man, bookworm, judge-pen wielding scholar, all of them went over and began urinating into the mortar.
GongYe Gan noticed these 5 folks urinate like mad, it was actually humorous and he couldn’t chorus from laughing, however immediately, everybody caught a whiff of gunpowder. The carpenter stated: “Sufficient, the hazard is over!” the zither aged man had quite a lot of urine, he saved on urinating continuous, he mumbled to himself: “Rattling it, rattling it, i mess up one other mechanism. sixth brother, fortunately you noticed it fast, else everybody would have been blown into meat pastes.”
GongYe Gan trembled with worry, he turned conscious that he had simply got here again from the gates of hell, clearly a flint is linked to the iron ring, when the ring is pulled, the fuse is lighted and it advance to the hidden explosive, happily the carpenter is extraordinarily vigilant, everybody urinated and so they managed to moist the fuse and thus averted a giant catastrophe.
The carpenter stroll to the first stone mortar to the fitting, he exerted his energy and switch the mortar 3 times to the fitting, he increase his head in direction of the sky and recited one thing, after a very long time, he flip the mortar six and a half occasions to the left. All of the sudden, they heard one other small squeaking sound, the large stone slab transfer apart, revealing a gap. This time the zither elder dare not rush in, he wave his palms on the carpenter and signalled him to prepared the ground. The carpenter knelt down on the ground, he look fastidiously on the 1st mortar to the left.
All of the sudden they heard somebody cursed from underground: “Previous Freak of XingXiu, you evil bastard! Excellent, superb! You lastly discovered me, your sensible! You dedicated all kinds of crime, retribution will finally come. Come, come! Are available in and kill me!”
The bookworm, carpenter, opera actor and the remainder all cheered in unison: “fifth brother is alive!” the zither elder stated loudly: “fifth brother, all of us arrive.” the voice from underground was silent for a second then it shouted: “It is actually elder brother?” the tone was joyous.
There was a laughing sound and somebody got here out of the opening, it’s the ‘Enemy of King of Hell’, Divine Doctor Xue.
Unexpectedly, aside from the zither elder and the remainder of his sworn brothers, there’s additionally fairly just a few strangers, he can’t assist however stare blankly, he stated to XuanNan: “Nice grasp, you got here out of your temple, these few persons are your mates?”
XuanNan hesitated after which stated: “Sure, they’re all associates.” Initially, Shaolin had maintained that Grasp XuanBei was killed by Gusu Murong household, they thought-about Murong household as their nemesis. This time, he got here along with Deng BaiChuan to hunt medical therapy, alongside the best way Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan insist that Grasp XuanBei was not killed by their younger grasp Murong, XuanNan was round 70-80% satisfied, as well as they braved risks collectively and collaborated in direction of a typical purpose, he lastly handled them as associates. When GongYe Gan heard his phrases, he flip and nod in direction of him.
Divine Doctor Xue stated: “Since we’re all associates then it could not be a lot better, everybody please go underground, Grasp XuanNan please prepared the ground.” Though he stated these phrases, he nonetheless rush forward and prepared the ground. The underground cellar is pitch-black, its a really harmful place to be in, the martial arts fraternity is filled with lethal secrets and techniques and traps, nobody belief one another, thus to indicate respect for guests he has to personally prepared the ground and enter first.
As Divine Doctor Xue entered the opening, XuanNan adopted him and entered as effectively, everybody supported the injured and adopted quickly after, they even carried the corpse of XuanTong in. Divine Doctor Xue operated a motor and the large stone slab transfer and lined the opening, he operated the motor once more and everybody heard a faint squeaking sound, the cassia tree transfer again to its unique place and lined the stone slab.
The inside is a stretch of stone steps, everybody has to stoop right down to journey, after travelling for some time, the ceiling step by step obtained larger, they reached a pure tunnel. They travelled for round 10 zhang and arrive at a spacious cavern. Over 20 persons are seated by the nook beside a torch, the folks encompass male, feminine, younger and previous. When these folks heard footsteps, they flip their head and have a look at them.
Divine Doctor Xue stated: “These persons are my members of the family, the present scenario is pressing, i will not ask them to return over and pay their respects, please forgive my lack of manners. Large brother, 2nd brother, how did your come right here?” he didn’t wait for his or her reply and instantly begin analyzing everybody’s accidents. He examined XuanTong first, Divine Doctor Xue stated: “This nice grasp achieved enlightenment and cross away, it gratifying and joyous.” He examined Deng BaiChuan, smiled and stated: “My seventh sister’s flower pollen will solely make you drunk and intoxicated, there isn’t a poison, he’ll get up after some time.” The center-age lady and opera actor suffered exterior accidents, though the accidents usually are not gentle however its a small matter for Divine Doctor Xue. He took Bao BuTong and Feng BoE pulse, closed his eyes and contemplated deeply.
After a very long time, Divine Doctor Xue shakes his head and stated: “Unusual, unusual! Who injured these two folks?” GongYe Gan stated: “It is a bizarre trying teenager.” Divine Doctor Xue shakes his head and stated: “Teenager? This individual’s martial arts possess each extremes of fine and evil, his inside vitality is extraordinarily profound, it has a least 30 years of cultivation, how can he be a teenager?” XuanNan stated: “It actually is a teenager, however his palm energy is deep and profound, my martial brother XuanTong conflict palms with him and likewise suffered this frost poison. His the disciple of Previous Freak of XingXiu.”
Divine Doctor Xue was startled: “Even the disciple of Previous Freak of XingXiu is that this highly effective? Wonderful, superb!” he shakes his head and stated: “Regrettable, regrettable, the frost poison of those two senior brothers, i’m actually powerless towards it. Any longer, i do not dare to be generally known as ‘Divine Doctor’.”
All of the sudden a shiny resonant voice stated: “Since that is the evaluation of Divine Doctor Xue, we’ll take our go away instantly.” The voice got here from Deng BaiChuan, he lastly wakened after being intoxicated by the flower pollen, he heard Divine Doctor Xue’s analysis. Bao BuTong stated: “That is proper, that is proper! Disguise underground for what? Life and demise is fated, how can we imitate tortoise and mole and conceal in underground cavern?”
Divine Doctor Xue giggle grimly: “You’re extraordinarily boastful! Are you aware who’s ready outdoors?” Feng BoE stated: “You all are frightened of Previous Freak of XingXiu, however i’m not afraid. You all have superior martial arts however its all in useless, you folks get scared out of your wits if you hear the identify of Previous Freak of XingXiu.” The zither elder stated: “You’re no match for me. Previous Freak of XingXiu is my martial uncle, you inform me whether or not his highly effective or not?”
XuanNan change the topic and stated: “Previous monk has issues he do not perceive, i want to search clarification.” Divine Doctor Xue stated: “The eight of us are fellow apprentice, we’re generally known as ‘Eight Buddies of HanGu’.”
He pointed on the zither elder and stated: “That is our elder brother, i’m quantity 5. The remainder of the issues are actually sophisticated and never straightforward to clarify, furthermore, it ineffective to inform outsiders…..”
Earlier than he might end, everybody all of a sudden heard a skinny and mushy voice calling: “Xue MuHua, why aren’t you popping out to see me?”
The voice is skinny but balanced, it appears to be faint and vague however everybody within the tunnel heard it clearly, the voice is sort of a lengthy string, penetrating 10 zhang by means of the bottom and adopted the sophisticated winding tunnel earlier than coming into the ear.
The zither elder was so shocked that he leap up, he stated in a trembling voice: “Previous….Previous Freak of XingXiu!” Feng BoE stated loudly: “Large brother, 2nd brother, third brother, allow us to all exit and combat to the demise with him.” The zither elder stated: “No you can not do this, you could by no means do this. It would not matter should you exit and die a silly demise! However you’ll reveal this hiding place and the lives of all of the folks right here shall be sacrificed by your silly bravery.” Bao BuTong stated: “His voice can penetrate this underground cave, will not he know we’re hiding right here? Even should you grow to be a tortoise he’ll nonetheless drive you out, you can not hope to keep away from him.” The judge-pen scholar and the bookworm stated: “He will not have the ability to enter this place for some time, everybody allow us to consider a very good technique to take care of him.”
The carpenter saved silent all through, at this second he interrupted: “Though martial uncle Ding is extremely expert, however he would require no less than 4 hours to interrupt by means of this underground mechanism. He’ll want one other 4 hours to think about a technique to assault into this cave.” The zither elder stated: “Wonderful! We’ve eight hours, we are able to think about fastidiously and take our time, appropriate?” the carpenter stated: “9 hours.” The zither elder stated: “The place did the additional one hour come from?” the carpenter stated: “Inside this eight hours i can prepare one other three mechanism, it will probably delay him for one more hour.”
The zither elder stated: “Excellent! Nice grasp XuanNan, when that massive satan is available in on the scheduled time, we eight fellow apprentices will most likely not have the ability to escape his evil clutches. All of you’re outsiders. The massive satan will focus his consideration on us martial nephews, all of it is best to have the ability to escape. You shouldn’t attempt to be a hero and combat to the demise with him. Having the ability to escape the Previous Freak of XingXiu is already thought-about to be a really heroic motion.”
Bao BuTong stated: “Your farting, farting!” everybody began sniffing however they didn’t detect any stench, they gaze questioningly at Bao BuTong. Bao BuTong pointed on the zither elder and stated: “This individual is bullshitting, its stinks so unhealthy.” Beforehand he was subdued by the zither elder in a single transfer, he felt resentment in his coronary heart, though his frost poison had flare up at the moment and he didn’t have any energy to withstand, however he was effectively conscious that his martial artwork is vastly inferior to his, the stronger his opponent, the extra he wished to curse.
The chessboard wielding man gave him one look and stated: “You may’t even escape from my senior martial brother’s palm, my martial uncle’s martial artwork is 10 occasions higher than his, now you inform me who’s the one bullshitting right here?” Bao BuTong stated: “Not true, not true! Superior martial artwork shouldn’t be associated to bullshitting. In case your martial artwork is excessive, you’ll be able to’t bullshit? For those who do not bullshit, your martial artwork is excessive? Confucius would not know martial arts, possibly he makes a speciality of bulllshitting………”
Deng BaiChuan contemplated: “The phrases of those folks aren’t unreasonable, third brother is simply debating and joking round with them, we must always not waste the time we’ve got right here.” He interrupted: “Everybody, i didn’t know your origin and this led to quite a few misunderstandings, i even by accident injure this woman, i really feel terribly apologetic. Since we met a typical enemy in the present day, we’re one massive household. Later when this highly effective enemy is available in, though the subordinates of younger grasp Murong are unworthy, we’ll by no means run away, if we won’t resist him then we’ll merely simply die collectively.”
XuanNan stated: “HuiFang, Xu Zhu, in a while if each of you see the chance, you could attempt to escape and return again to Shaolin Temple to report this matter to the abbot. Within the occasion that everybody is eradicated by that satan no less than we are able to get essential info delivered.” 6 Shaolin monks stated in unison: “We respectfully obey your orders.” Xue MuHua and Deng BaiChuan heard the speech by XuanNan, they knew his thoughts is ready and everybody will stay or die collectively, despite the fact that they now have one other sturdy helper towards the Previous Freak of XingXiu they nonetheless didn’t really feel assured in profitable.
The zither elder was expressionless all through, all of a sudden he clap his hand and giggle: “Everybody goes to die in the present day. Even when martial brother XuanKu didn’t die, he is not going to get the prospect to listen to my great tune, ‘Buzzing of A Reed’, why do i have to really feel unhappy for his demise? Alas! Alas! Somebody instructed me that i, Kang GuangLing is a giant fool, i at all times refuse to just accept. However now, it appears even when i’m not a giant fool, i’m nonetheless a small fool.”
Bao BuTong stated: “You actually are a real massive fool, massive silly idiot!” the zither elder Kang GuangLing stated: “I do not assume i’m extra silly than you!” Bao BuTong stated: “You’re ten occasions extra silly than me!” Kang GuangLing stated: “You’re hundred occasions extra silly than me!” Bao BuTong stated: “You’re thousand occasions extra silly than me!” Kang GuangLing stated: “You’re ten thousand occasions extra silly than me!” Bao BuTong stated: “You’re hundred thousand occasions extra silly than me, one million occasions, ten million occasions!”
Xue MuHua stated: “You two are about the identical, each of you’re equally silly. All of the masters from Shaolin, if you safely return again to your temple your abbot will certainly ask in regards to the trigger and impact of this matter, i’m afraid you will not have the ability to reply. This matter is a shameful incident in my sect, it isn’t associated to outsiders. However to get rid of this scourge from the martial arts fraternity, we want the assistance of senior monks from Shaolin. Thus, i’ll now narrate in particulars your complete matter, however after listening to it please solely report again to your abbot, don’t leak or reveal it to a different individual.”
HuiFang, Xu Zhu and the remainder of the monks stated in unison: “The phrases of Divine Doctor Xue, junior monk will solely report it to our abbot, we’ll by no means leak half a phrase to different folks.”
Xue MuHua stated to Kang GuangLing: “Senior martial brother, i’ll now narrate the intermediate particulars of this affair.”
Though Kang GuangLing is essentially the most senior apprentice among the many eight of them and his martial arts vastly exceeds his friends, however his character could be very infantile and naive. Xue MuHua is simply making an attempt to protect Kang GuangLing’s standing and status by asking him for permission in entrance of outsiders. Kang GuangLing stated: “That is so unusual, your mouth is your individual, simply say it should you like, why the necessity to ask me for permission?”
Xue MuHua stated: “Nice Grasp XuanNan, Grasp Deng, our grasp is called Mr Clever…..”
XuanNan, Deng BaiChuan and the remainder have been all startled, they stated in unison: “What? Mr Clever is the Deaf Mute Previous Man, this individual is born deaf and mute, he adopted a nickname and known as himself Mr Clever. All his disciples and followers had their eardrums pierced and their tongue minimize off, this reality is understood by everybody. However Kang GuangLing and the remainder of you’re completely regular, that is extraordinarily unusual.”
Xue MuHua stated: “My grasp’s disciples and followers are deaf and mute, however that is just for the previous 10 years. My grasp shouldn’t be deaf, and he’s actually not mute, he was agitated by his youthful martial brother the Previous Freak of XingXiu Ding ChunQiu and have become deaf and mute.” XuanNan and the remainder gave an ‘Oh’ sound. Xue MuHua continued: “My Grand-Grasp took in two disciples, the senior disciple is surname Su, named XingHe, naturally his our Grasp, the second disciple is Ding ChunQiu. Their martial arts have been initially on par with one another, however finally, one in all them turned barely higher……”
Bao BuTong interrupted: “Haha, say no additional, your martial uncle Ding ChunQiu will need to have surpassed your Grasp.” Xue MuHua stated: “You may’t say that, my Grand-Grasp is a celestial being of data, his abilities all encompassing……” Bao BuTong stated: “Not essentially, not essentially.” Xue MuHua knew Bao BuTong wish to argue for the sake of arguing, he ignored him and continued: “Initially, my Grasp and Ding ChuanQiu each focus solely on martial arts, however afterwards, my Grasp’s consideration was divided, he learnt music and zither from my Grand-Grasp…..”
Bao BuTong pointed at Kang GuanLing and stated: “Haha, your silly zither abilities will need to have been acquired out of your Grasp.”
Kang GuangLing glared at him and stated: “Clearly my abilities got here from my Grasp, don’ inform me it got here from you?”
Xue MuHua stated: “It isn’t a lot of a hindrance if my Grasp solely learnt zither abilities, however my Grand-Grasp’s data is just too huge, zither, chess, calligraphy, portray, medication, divination and astrology, arts and crafts, finance and commerce, crops and pottery, he is aware of all the things, he mastered all of them. Initially, my Grasp solely learnt zither abilities, however quickly after he began to be taught chess, after which calligraphy, after which portray. Everybody please assume for a second, all these abilities require pain-staking time and effort, initially Ding ChunQiu pretended to have an interest and tried to be taught all these abilities, however after 10-15 days, he claims his aptitude is low and his too silly, it is tough for him to be taught, thus he focus solely on martial arts. After 8-10 years, their martial arts have been at completely different ranges.”
XuanNan nod his head repeatedly, he stated: “Studying zither or chess alone would require half a lifetime of effort and vitality, though Mr Clever is sensible and gifted, it is tough for him to undertake such duties. Ding ChunQiu gave his undivided consideration to martial arts, its not shocking that his martial arts would finally surpass his senior martial brother.”
Kang GuangLing stated: “fifth brother, there’s something much more necessary, why aren’t you telling them? Shortly inform them.”
Xue MuHua stated: “Ding ChunQiu focus solely on martial arts, it ought to be a very good factor, however…..however….sigh…..if i narrate this matter, it will be actually shameful for our sect. Ding ChunQiu took benefit of the truth that his youthful than Grand-Grasp by 20-30 years, his additionally good-looking and chic, unexpectedly he seduced Grand-Grasp’s lover. This matter actually disgraced my Grand-Grasp, we have been sympathetic and did not say something, we pretended to be deaf and mute. To chop the lengthy story quick, Ding ChunQiu used numerous despicable methods, he additionally mastered some extraordinarily evil abilities, Grand-Grasp tried to kill him in his match of rage however Ding ChunQiu made the primary transfer and managed to inflict severe accidents on my Grand-Grasp. Fortunately, my Grand-Grasp possess peerless abilities, though he was backstabbed, he managed to withstand till my Grasp arrive to save lots of him. My Grasp’s martial arts have been no match towards that evil traitor, after a fierce battle my Grasp was injured and Grand-Grasp fell into deep ravine, his whereabouts unknown. My Grasp uncared for his martial arts as he learnt numerous miscellaneous abilities, however these miscellaneous abilities weren’t fully ineffective. Within the midst of hazard, my Grasp deployed his eight divinatory trigrams and sophisticated metaphysical artwork, Ding ChunQiu’s sight and listening to was disturbed, each of them deadlocked in stalemate.”
“Ding ChunQiu was unable to interrupt by means of the formation or kill my Grasp, furthermore, he knew there are fairly just a few divine abilities within the sect and Grand-Grasp didn’t impart these abilities to both disciples, he anticipated Grand-Grasp to cross on the manuals of those divine abilities to my Grasp and he would slowly coerce my Grasp at hand them over. Thus, he made a pact with my Grasp, so long as my Grasp stays silent and never communicate, he is not going to bother him. At the moment, my Grasp had the eight of us as his nugatory disciples. My Grasp wrote a letter and expelled us, and from that time onwards he pretended to be deaf and mute, by no means talking or listening to a phrase, his subsequent disciples and followers all had their eardrums pierced and tongues minimize off, his sect turned generally known as Deaf-Mute Sect. For my part, Grasp will need to have remorse getting distracted and studying all kinds of miscellaneous abilities, his martial arts suffered and he fell quick towards Ding ChunQiu, thus he turned deaf and mute in order that he would by no means get distracted and be taught these miscellaneous abilities.”
“The eight of us, aside from studying martial arts, every one in all us additionally picked up a novel miscellaneous talent. At the moment, Ding ChunQiu had but to revolt, my Grasp had but to know the ill-effects of being distracted, thus he didn’t forbid us to be taught the miscellaneous abilities, he even encourage us and frolicked to specifically instruct us. Senior martial brother Kang GuangLing learnt zither from him.”
Bao BuTong stated: “He solely is aware of methods to play zither to cows, no person understands.”
Kang GuangLing was livid: “My zither talent is poor? Come, i’ll play it for you now.” And he took out his jade zither and positioned it horizontally on his kneecaps.
Xue MuHua shortly held out his hand to cease him, he pointed on the chessboard wielding individual and stated: “That is my 2nd brother Fan BaiLing, he learnt the sport of Go (Chess), his one of the expert chess participant round and barely meets his match.”
Bao BuTong gave a glace at Fan BaiLing and stated: “Its not shocking that you just use chessboard as your weapon, however the chessboard is product of magnetic steel, it entice and take away your opponent’s weapon, it is an affordable trick, not the actions of upright gentleman.” Fan BaiLing stated: “When enjoying chess, there are magnificent moments and orderly deployment of chess items, however there are additionally moments the place you want to make use of sly techniques and ambush.”
Xue MuHua stated: “The chessboard of 2nd brother Fan is product of magnetic steel, initially it is for his analysis in chess. When his strolling, sitting or sleeping, he could have all of a sudden inspirations and he’ll arrange his chessboard to check out the strikes. For the reason that chessboard is product of magnetic steel, when he put the chess piece on it, even when his travelling on horse, the chess piece won’t ever transfer or drop off. Afterwards, he discovered the chessboard to be fairly handy and therefore made it as his weapon, the chess piece turned his hidden projectile. He didn’t purposely make use of magnet to benefit from his opponents.”
Though Bao BuTong was satisfied, he nonetheless argued: “The reason being not justified, actually not justified. Base on 2nd brother Fan abilities, he can merely use a picket chessboard and smack the steel chess piece onto the board to embed it, do not inform me the chess piece will nonetheless drop off?”
Xue MuHua stated: “Its nonetheless not as handy as utilizing a steel chessboard. My third brother Gou, his identify is Du, it represents his fondness in studying, the hundred colleges of thought he learn all of them, his an especially educated scholar, i feel everybody will need to have witnessed it.”
Bao BuTong stated: “His only a lowly scholar, not value mentioning.” Gou Du was livid: “What? You name me a lowly scholar, do not inform me you’re a noble scholar?” Bao BuTong stated: “I do not deserve such reward, i do not deserve such reward.”
Xue MuHua knew that if these two begin debating, they will not cease even after 3 days and three evening, he shortly interrupted and alter the topic, he pointed on the judge-pen wielding scholar and stated: “That is my 4th brother, his an knowledgeable in portray, panorama or folks, animals or flowers, he can draw them elaborately. His surname is Wu, earlier than he got here beneath the tutelage of our Grasp, he was a common of Nice Track and led the military, thus everybody known as him Wu LingJun”
Bao BuTong stated: “I’m afraid he led the military to its defeat, as for his work, you’ll be able to’t distinguish between human or ghost.” Wu LingJun stated: “For those who ask me to explain your face, it is actually arduous to distinguish you from a ghost.” Bao BuTong burst out into loud laughter: “Buddy when you’ve got time, are you able to please draw my face for example, a ghost image, it is going to be actually great.”
Xue MuHua giggle and stated: “Brother Bao is good-looking and chic, why so modest? I’m ranked quantity 5, i learnt medication and medical procedures, i’ve some minor status within the martial arts fraternity, i nonetheless remembered the martial arts taught by my Grasp.”
Bao BuTong stated: “You may barely deal with widespread cough and chilly, as for my frost poison, you’ll be able to’t do something in any respect. You may’t deal with any severe sickness, anybody in search of therapy will simply die. Hey hey, this title of ‘Divine Doctor’, it certainly is effectively deserved.”
Kang GuangLing smoothen his lengthy sleeves, his seems askance, he stated: “Hey previous chap your mood is absolutely odd, you actually stand out from the plenty.” Bao BuTong stated: “Haha, my surname is Bao, named BuTong, naturally i stand out from the plenty (pun on his identify).” Kang GuangLing giggle heartily: “Your surname is absolutely Bao? Named BuTong?” Bao BuTong stated: “How can my identify be faux? En, this previous chap who makes a speciality of making mechanism, your expert in building and industrial arts, you should be beneath the tutelage of Mr Lu Ban? (legendary Chinese language craftsman)”
Xue MuHua stated: “Precisely as you said, sixth brother Feng ASan, earlier than becoming a member of the sect, his already a talented carpenter, after coming into into our Grasp tutelage, he turned much more skilful. seventh sister Shi is expert in rising flowers, she has cultivated all kinds of unique flowers and uncommon herbs, all of them flourishing.”
Deng BaiChuan stated: “The drug which made me dizzy, Miss Shi will need to have gotten them from flower pollens, not poison.”
The beautiful middle-age lady is called Shi QingFeng, she gave a faint smile: “I offended you simply now, instructor Deng please forgive me.” Deng BaiChuan stated: “I’m much more impertinent, i exerted an excessive amount of energy and injure you, Miss please forgive me.”
Xue MuHua pointed on the opera actor and stated: “eighth brother Li KuiLei, all through his complete life his hooked on appearing opera, his wild and unrestrained, as for martial arts, he inevitably uncared for it as a result of his ardour for opera. Alas, its not solely him, the eight of us all uncared for our martial arts. The martial arts imparted by my Grasp, i’ll by no means have the ability to grasp it throughout my lifetime, however i used to be grasping and went round to be taught different folks’s distinctive strikes, consequently…..sigh…..”
Li KuiLei was mendacity down on the ground, he stated: “I’m lonely Emperor Li CunXu, i do not love my nation however i like opera, sigh, effectively performed, effectively performed!”
Bao BuTong stated: “I’m lonely Emperor Li SiYuan, i overthrow and took over your nation, i chop off your head.”
Bookworm Gou Du interrupted: “Li CunXu was killed by his personal subordinate Guo CongQian, he didn’t die by Li SiYuan’s palms.”
Bao BuTong shouldn’t be conversant in such issues, he knew he positively cannot attempt to faux info and bluff Gou Du, he stated: “Bah! So what if its Guo CongQian, yawn, i’m Qin ShiHuang, i burn the books and bury alive the Confucian students, i makes a speciality of coping with lowly students.”
Xue MuHua stated: “After the eight of us was expelled from the sect, we didn’t overlook our Grasp’s benevolence and directions, we known as ourselves ‘Eight Buddies of HanGu’ to commemorate the occasions when Grasp imparted the abilities to us at HanGu Cross. Outsiders solely know we share vile habits……” Bao BuTong sniff just a few occasions along with his nostril, he stated: “Very smelly, very smelly!” Gou Du stated: “The E-book of Modifications says: [The unanimous opinion of people, its as strong as the smell of orchid] the odor is good perfume, previous chap you actually lack any data.” Bao BuTong stated: “You phrases are so aromatic that’s smells like fart!”
Xue MuHua smiled and stated: “Nobody is aware of that we got here from the identical sect and are fellow apprentices. To protect towards the Previous Freak of XingXiu when he returns to Central Plains, and to keep away from letting him kill all of us in a single fell swoop, we solely meet as soon as each 2 years, usually we scatter all around the world and stay aside.”
“Not way back, Ding ChunQiu despatched his disciple right here, he ask me to deal with a giant stomach monk. The one surnamed Xue has a bizarre mood, if somebody desires medical therapy, he positively must ask me properly, furthermore the one that got here to hunt therapy is a disciple of Previous Freak Ding, naturally i do not wish to deal with. The individual is unable to coerce me and left in rage. I knew Previous Freak Ding will come eventually, thus, i feign my demise and put lethal poison within the coffin, hoping that he’ll take the bait. My complete household, younger and previous, all hid on this underground cave.”
Bao BuTong stated: “You need somebody to ask you properly when requesting therapy, how is that this bizarre? The one surnamed Bao additionally has a bizarre mood, if somebody desires to deal with my sickness, he has to ask me properly and never strain or coerce me, else i’ll slightly die of sickness than let him deal with it.”
Kang GuangLing burst into loud laughter: “You assume you’re some sort of uncommon treasure? Folks offer you therapy and so they nonetheless must plead you, except……except…..” and he could not consider the situation.
Bao BuTong stated: “Except you’re my son.” Kang GuanLing was startled and thought the phrases have been fairly true, if a father had a son who refuse to see a health care provider, he has to beg and plead persistently. His an affordable individual, however he did not count on Bao BuTong to benefit from him with wordplay, he stated: “AiYa, i’m not your son.” Bao BuTong stated: “Solely your mom is aware of whether or not your my son or not, how you recognize your not?” Kang GuangLing was startled, he nod his head and stated: “Fairly true.” Bao BuTong giggle and thought: “This individual is mostly a massive fool, this may simply be a one-sided contest if i proceed to benefit from him.”
Xue MuHua stated: “There may be an excessive amount of coincidence, the eight of us are suppose to satisfy once more after 2 years. My previous servant mistook all of you because the enemy, the scenario was pressing, he didn’t seek the advice of me and instantly set off the fireworks sign. The fireworks have been made by my sixth brother, when set off, they illuminate the skies for a number of li, there are eight of us and each has a novel firework sign. This matter is absolutely lucky and but unlucky, the lucky factor is that the ‘Eight Buddies of HanGu’ can assemble in occasions of hazard to withstand the enemy collectively. However the unlucky factor is that the Previous Freak of XingXiu can clear up his downside in a single fell swoop and kill the eight of us.”
Bao BuTong stated: “Despite the fact that the Previous Freak of XingXiu is extremely expert, he may not be superior to Grasp XuanNan from Shaolin. As well as, there may be all of us the minor troops, we’ll shout loudly to indicate our energy and do our utmost and combat with them, we’d not lose. There isn’t any must be so……so…..so…” as he stated ‘so’ 3 times, his tooth begins clattering with one another, his frost poison flared up and he can now not discuss.
Li KuiLei sang loudly: “I’m Jing Ke who tried to assassinate Qin ShiHuang. Feng XiaoXiao contracted a chilly, the courageous warrior shivered and might’t communicate!” All of the sudden a shadow of a human flew up and rammed head-first at Li KuiLei’s chest. Li KuiLei cried out ‘Ayo’ and wave his arm to push the individual away. The individual grabbed onto him and so they began combating, the individual is ‘Gust of Wind’ Feng BoE. Deng BaiChuan shortly stated: “4th brother, do not be impolite!” and he prolonged his palms to tug Feng BoE away.
Deng Bai Chuan stated: “Everybody could be very frank, you didn’t cowl the reality, you’re actually a real good friend. We face a strong enemy, we do not know if we’ll stay or die, we Gusu Murong will even inform you all the things we all know. Beforehand, our previous grasp Murong talk about one thing with us, he stated the Grand-Grasp of Ding ChunQiu follow a talent known as [Eternal Youth Never Ageing Skill]. Previous grasp Murong instructed us, this everlasting youth and by no means ageing is faux, everybody should die finally. However with the proper cultivation of inside vitality you’ll be able to delay ageing, 30-40 years previous lady can seem as if she is 18-19 years previous, 50-60 years previous married lady could make their pores and skin radiant and flesh supple, face snow-white and lips pink, as if she is 20-30 years previous. All girls desires to take care of their youthfulness, however aren’t males the identical? Ding ChunQiu didn’t kill your Grand-Grasp, principally doubtless his making an attempt to coerce him to impart this set of everlasting youth talent. Ding ChunQiu most likely tried to follow this talent however its not very efficient and his slowly displaying indicators of ageing. If he is aware of his everlasting youth talent is shedding its effectiveness he’ll principally like come to Suzhou and attempt to seek for a e book.”
Gou Du stated: “Search for e book? That is unusual, he ought to come and ask me.” Deng BaiChuan stated: “Mr Gou, though you’re a scholar with nice erudition, however the secrets and techniques to the everlasting youth talent most likely cannot be discovered within the books you learn. Ding ChunQiu seduced your Grand-Grasp’s lover, the 2 of them escape to Suzhou and stay in seclusion in a village close to Lake Tai. The big portions of martial artwork manuals which they stolen are additionally hidden at Suzhou.”
XuanNan stated: “In the event that they wish to search for e book, then merely allow them to look.” Deng BaiChuan stated: “We knew the ambition of Previous Freak Ding shouldn’t be small. If he purely desires to make use of that everlasting youth talent to delay ageing, not matter how good-looking he’s we’ll merely not have a look at his sickening face. However i’m afraid his actual intention is to strengthen his [Great Energy Dissolving Skill].” XuanNan trembled with worry, he stated: “I wish to ask Divine Doctor Xue, the [Great Energy Dissolving Skill], how precisely does it work? Everybody in martial arts fraternity all flip pale once they hear in regards to the talent and so they detest it bitterly.”
Xue MuHua stated: “Its rumoured that this demonic talent requires alot of venom fluid from toxic snakes and bugs, this fluid shall be absorbed into the palm, when combating with an opponent, this lethal poison shall be transferred to the opposite occasion. Once we follow martial arts, out inside vitality circulate from the meridians channel, for instance, the ‘Guankang’ acupoint is linked to the three yin meridian, the ‘Dazhui’ acupoint is linked to the three yang meridian of hand and ft, if these two acupoint comes into contact with poison, the inner vitality inside these meridians would appear to vanish with no hint. Peculiar folks unfold lies and claims that Ding ChunQiu can dissolve inside vitality. However for my part, for the reason that inside vitality is already cultivated it can’t be dissolved, Previous Freak Ding sends his lethal poison into his opponent’s meridians channel and cease his opponent from exerting inside vitality, the sufferer will assume that his inside vitality is gone. Its the identical logic as contracting regular poison, the poison will unfold to the mind and the sufferer will really feel numbness in his hand and ft, but it surely does not imply the muscle energy is dissolved. I invite Nice Grasp to appropriate me if i’m improper.”
XuanNan nod his head and stated: “Divine Doctor is appropriate, you cleared all my doubts and suspicions.”
At this second, a skinny slender voice transmitted into the cave: “Disciples of Su XingHe, shortly come out and give up, possibly i can nonetheless spare your life, should you nonetheless delay do not blame me for disregarding Sect relations.”
Kang GuangLing was livid and cursed: “His actually shameless, nonetheless dare to speak about Sect relations.”
Feng ASan stated to Xue MuHua: “fifth brother, trying on the wooden markings and stone high quality, this cave is round for 300 years, which expert workman made it?” Xue MuHua stated: “This property is cross down by my ancestors, it’s handed on from era to era, it may be use for refuge in occasions of hazard however i do not know who constructed it……”
He didn’t full his sentence as a loud exploding sound was heard, it was like earthquake, everybody felt the bottom sway and vibrate, their footing unstable. Feng ASan expression turns pale, he stated: “Not good! Previous Freak Ding used explosives to forcibly blow open the doorway, his going to assault quickly!”
Kang GuangLing was livid: “Despicable to the acute, shameless. Our Grand-Grasp and Grasp are expert in constructing and crafting, mechanism and traps our Sect’s specialty. Previous Freak of XingXiu didn’t even make investments effort to attempt to unravel the mechanism, he merely use explosives and blow all the things to bits, how can he be thought-about a disciple of our Sect?” Bao BuTong shivered and stated: “He killed his Grasp, injure his fellow martial brother, you continue to think about him as your martial uncle?” Kang GuangLing stated: “This……..”
All of the sudden there was one other loud explosion, the mud within the cavern fly about and irritated everybody’s eyes. The cave is sealed off and doesn’t enable air circulate, after this explosion, draft of contemporary air surge in, everybody felt their eardrum ache.
XuanNan stated: “Fairly than enable him to blow open this cave and assault in, we shall be higher off going out and assault him.” Deng BaiChuan, GongYe Gan, Bao BuTong and Feng BoE all agreed in unison.
Fan BaiLing knew XuanNan is a senior eminent monk from Shaolin, asking him to cover in a cave to keep away from the enemy is mostly a shame to the celebrity of Shaolin, since this battle is unavoidable he stated: “If that is the case allow us to all exit collectively, we’ll danger our lives and combat that Previous Freak.”
Xue MuHua stated: “Nice Grasp XuanNan you have no enmity with this Previous Freak, its finest that you aren’t getting contain and stand apart and watch.” XuanNan stated: “Shaolin will intervene in all issues associated to martial arts in Central Plains, you lot must forgive me for interfering. Furthermore, my martial brother XuanTong’s demise is because of the poison of the disciple of XingXiu, thus Shaolin has deep enmity with XingXiu Sect.”
Feng ASan stated: “Nice Grasp is prepared to assist us, your sense of justice, we fellow apprentices are extraordinarily grateful. Allow us to exit by the unique path and shock that Previous Freak.” Everybody nod their head and agreed.
Feng ASan stated: “The household of fifth brother Xue, Mr Bao and Mr Feng can keep on this cave, i do not assume the Previous Freak will are available in and search.” Bao BuTong gave him a look and stated: “Its higher that you just keep right here.” Feng ASan shortly stated: “I do not dare to look down on you two, however each of you carry severe accidents, its not handy so that you can combat.” Bao BuTong stated: “The heavier the damage, once we begin combating the extra vitality we’ve got!” Fan BaiLing and the remainder all shake their head, this individual is absolutely impervious to motive. Feng ASan operated the cave motor.
Within the midst of working the motor, 3 cannon hearth rang out, ‘Peng’ ‘Peng’ ‘Peng’ they exploded and white smoke pervade the realm. After the cannon hearth, the stone slab lastly transfer away, revealing a gap large enough for an individual to cross, Feng ASan shortly crawl out.
Feng ASan had but to face up when a black determine emerge from the white smoke, the determine transfer previous him and rush out in direction of a crowd of individuals outdoors and shouted: “Which one in all you is Previous Freak of XingXiu, the one surnamed Feng will combat with you.” the individual is ‘Gust of Wind’ Feng BoE.
He noticed a person standing in entrance, his carrying hemp garments, Feng BoE shouted loudly: “Eat my fist!” ‘Peng’ his fist already hit the individual’s chest. The individual is the ninth disciple of XingXiu Sect, his physique sway and Feng BoE second fist hit him on his shoulder. Chopping and slapping sound rang out endlessly, Feng BoE executed his strikes shortly, it appears all his fists and palms landed on his opponent’s physique, however his devoid of energy after contracting the poison, he couldn’t topple the XingXiu disciple. XuanNan, Deng BaiChuan, Kang GuangLing and Xue MuHua all got here out of the cave.
They noticed a tall and large previous man standing on the south-west nook, to his left and proper is one quick man and one tall man, the iron-head man is one in all them. Kang GuangLing shouted: “Previous Traitor Ding, you continue to not useless but? Keep in mind me?”
The tall and large previous man is the Previous Freak of XingXiu Ding ChunQiu. When he captured HuiJing he wished to drive him to search for the frost silkworm, however he discovered that the monk is extraordinarily sick, he shortly seek for Xue MuHua to ask him to supply therapy. Xue MuHua tried to faux demise however he finally nonetheless cannot escape Ding ChunQiu. Ding ChunQiu gave a fast look and acknowledge all his opponents, his wave his feathered fan and stated: “Nephew MuHua, should you can remedy that fats Shaolin monk, i’ll spare you life, however it’s a must to take me as your Grasp and be a part of XingXiu Sect.” initially he wished Xue MuHua to simply remedy monk HuiJing and he’ll carry them to Kunlun Mountain to catch the frost silkworm, however afterwards he wished to recruit Xue MuHua in order that each of them can analysis the secrets and techniques to the [Eternal Youth Never Ageing Skill].
Xue MuHua take heed to his tone and expression, Ding ChunQiu disregarded all of the opponents earlier than him, he appears assured of controlling everybody’s life and demise and do as he pleases. Xue MuHua knew his martial uncle could be very highly effective, he felt actually scared, he stated: “Previous Traitor Ding, i solely take heed to the orders of 1 individual, whoever he ask me to deal with i’ll do it, its straightforward so that you can kill me, however to deal with somebody, you’ll have to go beg that individual.”
Ding ChunQiu stated coldly: “You solely take heed to orders from Su XingHe appropriate?”
Xue MuHua stated: “Solely scoundrels who’re worse than beast will dare to deceive and exterminate their Grasp.” As he stated this, Kang GuangLing, Fan BaiLing and Li KuiLei all cheered.
Ding ChunQiu stated: “Excellent, all of you’re obedient disciples of Su XingHe, however Su XingHe already despatched somebody to tell me that he had lengthy expelled the eight of you, you persons are not longer his disciples. Do not me inform that one surnamed Su lied and secretly keep this Grasp and disciple relationship?”
Fan BaiLing stated: “Grasp for a day, father for a lifetime. Grasp did expel the eight of us. All these years we by no means noticed him in any respect, once we drop by to pay our respects he refused to see us. However our love and respect for our Grasp has by no means lower in any respect. The one surnamed Ding, you’re the motive why the eight of us turned lonely souls and wandering ghosts, with no Sect to rely upon.”
Ding ChunQiu smile and stated: “You phrases are fairly true. Su XingHe was afraid that i’d kill all of you. He expelled the eight of you to protect your insignificant lives. His not willingly to pierce your eardrum or minimize off your tongue, his actually has deep emotions for you folks, humph, what nice issues can he obtain by being so indecisive and fainthearted? Hey, superb, all of you inform me, you continue to think about Su XingHe as your Grasp?”
When Kang GuangLing and the remainder heard his phrases, they knew that in the event that they declare that they’re nonetheless ‘Disciples of Su XingHe’, Ding ChunQiu will instantly kill them, however the relationship between Grasp and disciple is deep, how can they be cowardly and betray their Grasp, out of the eight, solely Shi QingFeng is severely injured and has to remain behind within the cave, the seven of them shouted in unison: “Though we’re expelled, however the relationship between Grasp and disciple is everlasting and can by no means change.”
Li KuiLei all of a sudden shouted: “I’m the mom of Previous Freak of XingXiu, i had an affair with the canine of ErLang Shen and gave beginning to this little bastard. I’ll break your canine leg!” he imitated the accent of an previous woman after which he bark 3 occasions like a canine.

The quite a few disciples of Ding ChunQiu praised: “Grasp solely shows his little trick and also you all flip into roasted pigs, shortly give up now!”
“Grasp has the power to shift the heaven and cut up the bottom, nobody has ever executed it earlier than him and nobody will have the ability to replicate it sooner or later, you all pigs and canines actually get to see the ability of XingXiu Sect in the present day.”
“Grasp triumph in each battle and win each combat, his the hero of historical and fashionable occasions, be swept away by his would possibly and energy!”
Bao BuTong shouted loudly: “Bullshit! Bullshit! Aiyo, that is so corny! Previous Thief Ding, you’re actually thick-skinned!”
Bao BuTong simply barely end talking when 2 meteor-flame swiftly got here at him. Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan each despatched out a palm and deflected the flames, however each of them felt a as if a large hammer smash their chest, they groan and shortly took three steps again. Ding ChunQiu used his highly effective inside vitality to ship out the meteor-flame, XuanNan and Kang GuangLing have excessive inside vitality and they didn’t undergo any damage once they deflected the flame, Deng BaiChuan and GongYe Gan usually are not on the identical stage and so they couldn’t stand up to it.

XuanNan ship out one other two palm and extinguished the flame on Fan BaiLing and Feng ASan, at this second, Deng BaiChuan, GongYe Gan, Kang GuangLing and the remainder had thrown themselves into the gang and attacked the disciples of XingXiu Sect.
Ding ChunQiu stroke his lengthy beard and stated: “Senior monk from Shaolin is certainly extraordinary, little brother will ask you for recommendation in the present day.” As he end talking he took a step ahead, his left palm floated frivolously in direction of XuanNan. He thought-about himself to be a younger man, he didn’t name himself ‘previous man’ however ‘little brother’.
XuanNan is aware of Previous Freak Ding has lethal poison overlaying his complete physique, his additionally proficient in [Great Energy Dissolving Skill], thus he dare not be complacent, each his palm dance about, instantly he ship out 18 palm strikes at Ding ChunQiu, this 18 palm strikes got here out consecutively in a series, his left palm has but to withdraw however his proper palm already strike out, its incomparably quick, he didn’t give Ding ChunQiu any time to make use of his poison.

As he channel his inside vitality, he felt his vitality scatter and disappear into skinny air, he couldn’t collect his inside vitality, as he heard the reason from Xue MuHua earlier than he knew his meridian is poisoned.
Ding ChunQiu giggle out loudly, his shrug his shoulder, there was a slapping sound and XuanNan collapsed onto the bottom.
After beating XuanNan, Ding ChunQiu surveyed his environment, GongYe Gan and Fan BaiLing had collapsed and so they saved shivering, they have been overwhelmed by You TanZhi’s frost poison palm, Deng BaiChuan, Xue MuHua and the remainder are nonetheless combating fiercely along with his disciples, from his XingXiu Sect he had round 7 disciples both useless or injured.

In a brief time frame, all of the subordinates of Murong household, XuanNan and the remainder of the Shaolin monks, Kang GuangLing and the remainder of ‘Eight Buddies of HanGu’, all of them have been defeated by Ding ChunQiu and You TanZhi. You TanZhi had extraordinarily deep and profound inside vitality, however his martial artwork is mediocre and weak, beneath just a few days of steerage beneath Ding ChunQiu he learnt 7-8 palm strikes, though his martial artwork continues to be weak in comparison with widespread fighters, however together with the frost poison amassed in his physique, his energy is formidable and extraordinary. When GongYe Gan attacked You TanZhi along with his palm, he hit him on the primary strike, however he obtained counter-attack by the frost poison and ended up injured.
The one one that didn’t maintain any damage is Xue MuHua, he attacked numerously occasions however the XingXiu disciples solely sniggered and ran away from him, they didn’t combat again in any respect.

Xue MuHua noticed his fellow martial brothers collapsing one after the other, solely he was left unscathed, clearly Ding ChunQiu was being lenient and let him off. He gave an extended sigh and stated: “Previous Traitor Ding, the exterior accidents of that fats monk is straightforward to deal with however his inside accidents is tough, he cannot stay for quite a lot of days, you wish to drive me to remedy him, dream on!”
Ding ChunQiu wave his hand and beckon him: “Nephew Xue, come over right here!”
Xue MuHua stated: “Kill me if you’d like, i will not take heed to what you say.”
Li KuiLei shouted: “fifth brother Xue devotion to righteousness conjures up reverence, you’re Su Wu, exiled for 19 years and remained loyal to the Han.”
Ding ChunQiu gave a slight smile, he stood 3 steps away from Xue MuHua, frivolously resting his left palm on his shoulder, he smile and ask: “Nephew Xue, how lengthy have you ever been studying martial arts?” Xue MuHua stated: “45 years.” Ding ChunQiu stated: “Practising day and evening for 45 years, its actually not straightforward.

For those who be a part of my sect, i can impart you matchless inside vitality cultivation technique, afterwards it straightforward so that you can dominate Central Plains.”
Xue MuHua was livid: “I’ve my very own Grasp, you ask Xue MuHua to affix your sect, i’d slightly bang my head and die!”
Ding ChunQiu smile and stated: “You want vitality and energy to bang your head until demise. For those who lose all of your inside vitality, you should have issue strolling, why the necessity to discuss banging your head? 45 years of arduous work, hei hei, what a pity, what a pity.”
Sweat stream down endlessly from his brow when he heard this, Xue MuHua felt the hand on his shoulder step by step heat up, Ding ChunQiu solely have to will it and his [Great Energy Dissolving Skill] would come forth, 45 years of arduous work would instantly vanish and disappear with no hint, he clenched his tooth and stated: “You’re heartless sufficient to kill your individual Grasp, martial brother and now the eight of us, do you even care? Its a pity if i lose 45 years of arduous work, however i’ll die anyway, why do i care about arduous work or not?”
Bao BuTong cheered: “Nicely stated, you’ve got ethical spine and integrity. Does XingXiu sect have such a hero?”
Ding ChunQiu stated: “Nephew Xue, i will not kill you now, however i’ll ask you 8 occasions: ‘Will you deal with that fats monk?’, should you reply that you just will not deal with, i’ll kill your senior elder brother Kang GuangLing. The 2nd time you reply that you just will not deal with, i’ll kill your 2nd brother Fan BaiLing. You martial sister, the one which is aware of methods to domesticate flowers, the place is she hiding? I’ll finally discover her. The sixth time you reply that you just will not deal with, i’ll kill that fairly martial sister of yours. The seventh time, i’ll kill your eighth brother Li KuiLei. If i ask the eighth time and you continue to refuse to deal with, make a guess, who will i kill?”
Xue MuHua heard him narrate his ruthless technique, he flip pale and trembled: “At the moment you’ll kill me, no massive deal. All eight of us will simply die collectively.”
Ding ChunQiu smiled and stated: “There isn’t a hurry to kill you, the eighth time you reply that you just will not deal with, i’ll go kill ‘Mr Clever’ Su XingHe.” Xue MuHua shouted loudly: “Previous Traitor Ding, you dare contact a single hair on my Grasp!”

However you dare offend me and make me offended, the errors made by a disciple would naturally be borne by the Grasp, i wish to kill him, who can cease me?”
Xue MuHua thoughts was in a large number, he knew this previous traitor is coercing him to deal with HuiJing, his function should be very sinister, if he comply with deal with he could be aiding a tyrant, but when he refuse to deal with, the lives of his fellow martial brothers and sister could be misplaced, even their grasp Mr Clever would die for positive. He muttered to himself for a very long time and eventually stated: “Effective, i’ll yield, however after treating that fats monk you could not bother all my associates, martial brothers and sister and my Grasp.”
Ding ChunQiu was overjoyed, he shortly stated: “Positive, positive! I promise to spare their canine life.”
Deng BaiChuan stated: “The honourable gentleman fell into the evil scheme of a treacherous villain, he deserves to die, who wants you to indicate mercy?” initially his voice is powerful and shiny, however his inside vitality had dissipated, though his indignant, his voice inevitably turned breathless and devoid of energy. Bao BuTong shouted: “Xue MuHua, do not fall into his entice, this swindler admit it himself, his phrases can’t be trusted.”
Xue MuHua stated: “Right, you stated it earlier than: ‘the phrases i stated in the present day, i would overlook them tomorrow’.”
