A knife in love

Chapter 230

Li Qiufeng has practiced martial arts with his master since he was a child, but he never knew that his own martial arts had such a history. Now he listened to Sun Ze's detailed account of the past, but his heart was shaken by it.

At this time, everyone has already walked up to the top of the slope, and they will arrive at the stone archway not far away.Sun Chi still walked slowly and said: "The man surnamed Liu kept shaking his head after hearing what the head of Song said, and said: 'A few years ago, Zhenren Zhang accidentally created a set of martial arts. At that time I traveled upstream along the Yangtze River in a boat with a real person, and encountered wind and rain at night in Wuxia. At that time, Zhang Zhenren’s martial arts had reached the point where he could do whatever he wanted, and even pick flowers and leaves to hurt people. In the bitter wind and rain, I saw the dangerous peaks on both sides of the river, and the rain was blown by the wind. It moved and fell from the sky like a river, and it was like the shadow of a sword and sword, suppressing the surging river water. Standing on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, Zhang Zhenren realized a set of martial arts moves when he saw the changes of ghosts and gods shaking the earth. It's just that this set of martial arts is known for its fierceness and ferocity, which is different from the Wudang Taiji swordsmanship. Therefore, after we got off the boat in Baidi City, Zhang Zhenren found a knife and tried a few moves, which turned out to be extremely powerful , then abandoned the sword and took the knife, and named this set of martial arts Xuanxu Saber Technique. It's just that the old man once said that this set of knife technique moves aggressively, strikes fiercely, and spares no effort, which is far from the purpose of Taoism's tranquility and indifference It’s just that in terms of martial arts, this sword technique is unique. It’s a great innovation in martial arts. The method is extremely fierce, and it runs counter to the Wudang School's swordsmanship, and should not be passed on to Wudang School's disciples. It's just that I thought this set of martial arts was done by Master Zhang after all, and should be carried forward by the Wudang School, so I want to hand over this set of martial arts To the head of Song and all the priests.'

"Master Song and the others heard this, but they refused to agree. They only said that since the master had instructed, Wudang disciples would never dare to disobey the will of the ancestor. The man had no choice, so he said to Master Song and the others. : "Since several Taoist priests have such intentions, I will try out the Xuanxu sword technique and ask several Taoist priests for advice."

"Master Song and the others know that he used this mysterious saber technique in front of everyone to let the masters of the Wudang sect watch the moves, so as to benefit the martial arts of the Wudang sect, but it will not violate Zhenren Zhang's will. He remained silent. In fact, Master Song and other Wudang masters also had some plans in their hearts. The Wudang sword formation was created by them with great effort. Since the formation was completed, no one has been able to break it. But this man surnamed Liu can actually To break through the Wudang Sword Formation, one must use this mysterious sword technique created by the master. If you can watch this man surnamed Liu practice the sword technique, it will be of great benefit to make up for the loopholes in the Wudang Sword Formation.

"After the man surnamed Liu finished speaking, he pulled out his long saber and practiced the Xuanxu saber technique twice in the courtyard of Zhenwu Temple. During the first rehearsal, he drew the saber extremely fast, which can really be called as fast as it is. Lightning. According to the real ancestor and grandson, this set of swordsmanship moves and attacks, and the direction of each sword is unthinkable, making it impossible to guard against. After the second rehearsal, the man surnamed Liu was slow to move Many, every move and style can be clearly seen by everyone. Moreover, he concentrated his internal energy on the saber, and when he drew the saber, there was a scoffing sound. Only then did the ancestors know the meaning of this set of saber techniques after seeing him make such a saber. The power lies not only in the moves, but also in the fact that it is based on the internal strength of the Wudang School. Although others have seen the moves, if they have not practiced the inner strength and mental methods of the Wudang School, the power of this set of saber techniques will be greatly reduced.

"The ancestors watched this man surnamed Liu try out the Xuanxu Saber Technique, and he remembered some moves, which were later passed down. It's just that he has never practiced the Wudang School's internal skills. He only practiced these moves, but he didn't have the slightest bit of them when he was facing the enemy. Useful. However, I remember these moves very well, so when I saw this unknown swordsman making moves, I immediately knew that he was using the mysterious sword technique. It's just that this person's sword technique is somewhat specious, as if he learned it secretly.

"After the man surnamed Liu tried out the Xuanxu saber technique, he put the saber back into its sheath and said to Sect Leader Song: "I want to teach Sect Leader Song that I broke through the Wudang sword formation, not because of my Xuanxu saber technique. It's just that my knife was passed down by someone else, and it's extremely sharp. Just now, outside the Zhenwu Temple, I cut off 24 long swords in the sword formation with this knife, and then I broke through the sword formation. If I didn't have this knife , I'm afraid I'm lost in the sword array.'

"Master Song was relieved when he heard that the man surnamed Liu admitted his shortcomings, not because of any flaws in the sword array. The ancestor said from the side: 'Could it be that the knife in your hand is the Puyuan knife?' The man surnamed Liu didn't expect his ancestors to see the origin of this knife, and he was also shocked, so he had to reply respectfully: 'Yes.'"

When Sun Ze said this, he said to everyone: "Do you know the origin of this Pu Yuan Saber?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Li Qiufeng thought to himself: "Master does have a sword, but he has never seen him use it. When teaching himself sword skills, he only used two wooden swords to attack and defend against each other. It was only before he was ordered to the capital five years ago that he started using the special sword for Jinyiwei. According to what Sun Ze said, my master probably has a lot to do with this man surnamed Liu, and the knife beside him is very likely to be the Puyuan knife that Sun Ze mentioned.

Seeing the blank faces of the crowd, Sun Ze continued, "Pu Yuan is the name of a man. He was born in the Three Kingdoms period and was a master swordsmith. Pu Yuan has an extremely eccentric temper, but he was tamed by the Prime Minister of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang. Therefore, according to old legend, when Zhuge Liang attacked Cao Wei in the north and sent troops out of Qishan Mountain, in order to confuse the Cao army, he took general Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong as the commander-in-chief. Stationed in Xiegu, he accidentally discovered that the river water in Xiegu is much colder than other rivers. If it is used to forge swords, the quenching speed will be doubled, and the sharpness of the swords will be unparalleled. He reported to the commander Zhao Yun and built 33 in Xiegu. A furnace for casting swords, harvesting water from inclined valleys, and casting swords and swords with metal. At that time, Zhao Yun said that when two armies confront each other, the sword is more powerful than the sword. Therefore, Pu Yuan only cast seven long swords, but made Three thousand knives were made. On the day when the knife was completed, I tested the knife with a bamboo tube filled with iron beads. When I slashed down with the knife, the bamboo tube was broken, and the end was extremely sharp. Zhao Yun once fought in Dangyang Changban in a bloody battle, beheading Cao Mengde's tent. Xia Houen, a general with a lower-backed sword, snatched the Qinghong sword that Xia Houen carried for Cao Mengde. After Pu Yuan made the sword, he used the sword to fight against Zhao Zilong's Qinghong sword. He slashed each other three times before being cut off by the Qinghong sword. Zhao Yun Amazed, he sent the 99 knives and seven long swords to Zhuge Liang's camp. Afterwards, Zhuge Liang wore a long sword himself, and distributed the other six long swords to Jiang Wei and other generals of Shu Han. The 99 knives were handed over to the most elite Baiyu soldiers in the Shu army.

"Afterwards, the Shu Han and Cao Wei battled for years, and the Bailong soldiers suffered constant casualties. Finally, Deng Ai destroyed Shu, and all the remaining Bailong soldiers died in the battle of Mianzhu. The Puyuan knife was lost. The ancestor lived in Jinguan City for a long time, and once saw it in a wealthy merchant. A Puyuan sword is really sharp and incomparable to the long sword used by this man surnamed Liu, so he recognized this knife. If the unknown swordsman you saw had this knife in his hand Pu Yuan Dao, Xuan Xu Dao Skill will come out to double its power, Tang He and others will be defeated if they can't take ten moves under his hands. However, with the sharpness of Pu Yuan Dao and Xuan Xu Dao Skill's unparalleled sharpness, it is possible to make a move At this time, there will be no mercy..."

When Li Qiufeng heard this, he suddenly realized.It turned out that the reason why Master didn't use the long saber was because he was worried that the saber would be extremely sharp. If he used the Xuanxu saber technique, he would not only decide victory or defeat, but also determine life and death.In order not to hurt people's lives, the knife was only kept in the sheath, and it was not allowed to cause harm to the world.

When he was thinking, he didn't pay attention to what Sun Ze said again.When I was startled, I had already arrived under the archway.Sun Ze was very excited about the conversation, and he chattered endlessly: "The man surnamed Liu disappeared after he left Wudang Mountain in the air. The head of Song and others passed on the Taijiquan, Taijijian and inner strength and mental methods that Zhang Zhenren had severely injured. With his disciples, the Wudang School became more famous and eventually became one of the two major sects in the Central Plains with the same reputation as the Shaolin School. At that time, Ye Yang, the strongest swordsman in the Wudang School, was greatly inspired by the Xuanxu Sword Technique and created a This set of swordsmanship is the Qijue Swordsmanship of the Wudang School. This set of swordsmanship is completely different from Taiji Swordsmanship. Its moves are fierce and strange. It is influenced by the Xuanxu Swordsmanship, but it is also a martial art. It's a unique skill. It's just that this set of swordsmanship is contrary to the main purpose of Wudang School's martial arts, Song Yuanqiao, Sun Biyun and other Taoist priests don't think so, so only Ye Yang's direct disciples of Taoist priest Ye can practice this swordsmanship."
