Chapter 14 The Vision of Mount Hua on the Sword

Shaoshi Mountain in Songshan Mountain is majestic, but the mountain path is a long series of wide stone steps. It is a grand scale and a huge project. It was dug by Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty to visit the Shaolin Temple. It is eight miles long.

On this day, a monk wearing moon-white robes suddenly appeared on the mountain road, walking towards the Shaolin Temple on the mountain.

This person is Ji Ran. Ever since Ji Ran received the mission of delivering the letter, he has stopped and stopped along the way, shuttled among the trees, and wandered among the mountains and rivers. He has a feeling of imitating nature.

After a few months of walking, he has completely mastered his current cultivation level, but the way of martial arts is not done behind closed doors after all.

So Ji Ran thought about the story of the Five Bests in the World and the Sword Huashan. Could Ji Ran contact her three or five friends to recreate this scene? Firstly, she could further understand the gap between herself and the best in the world, and secondly, she would also have a better understanding of martial arts on this matter. Summarize and summarize.

Stepping up, Ji Ran saw five waterfalls on the opposite mountain with flying beads and splashing jade, rushing down. Looking down at the mountains again, they were like ants and leeches.After turning a corner along the mountain road, I saw a huge temple with yellow walls and blue tiles in the distance.

Seeing this scene, he was filled with emotions. The last time Ji Ran came to Shaolin Temple, she was still a child.My parents were still farmers down the mountain. Times have changed, and I don’t know what is happening to them now.

Ji Ran still has some confidence in whether he can invite Master Sanzang of Shaolin Temple to participate in the Huashan Sword Discussion on this trip.

After all, Shaolin Temple is known as the source of martial arts in the world. At the same time, due to the incident of Senior Brother Wu Hua, its reputation suffered heavy losses and its reputation in the world declined.If you participate in the Huashan Sword Discussion, regardless of success or failure, your prestige will increase to a higher level, after all, the participants are all top-notch.

Although he has been in this life for many years and most of his past life memories have been blurred, Ji Ran remembers that the Tripitaka abbot should be the Shaolin abbot in "Chinese Boy". The masters of swordsmanship in Huashan can also be used as help against the Black Fox King in the future.

At the same time, Master Tianfeng not only showed respect for this visit.I just want Ji Ran to communicate with the masters in the temple to see if he can gain anything.

Shaolin Temple's martial arts were famous all over the world as early as the Sui and Tang Dynasties. For hundreds of years, I don't know how many masters have hidden in it. There must be something to learn from.After all, Southern Shaolin is not as good as Northern Shaolin.

While thinking about it, I suddenly saw the temple door open, and several rows of old monks walked out from left to right.

Abbot Sanzang walked out slowly, with the first Zen Master Wuxiang in the Bodhidharma Hall on the left, and the first Zen Master Wuxu in the Arhat Hall on the right.Abbot Sanzang is the uncle of Zen Master Tianming, the previous abbot, so he is not from an unknown generation. Although he is only fifty this year, his Dharma cultivation is earth-shattering.

"I think this is the uncle of Tripitaka, the so-called holy monk. This young monk met him for the first time and begged for forgiveness." He bowed to Tripitaka and said.

"Amitabha. Please come in and have a chat." The person in front of me is a few years younger than me, but he looks like he is only in his early thirties.Zen Master Tripitaka, a monk with extraordinary bearing, could never call him grandnephew.

On the surface, he came here to deliver a message, but in fact Ji Ran also wanted to see what this uncle Taishi, who was not much older than herself but had a frightening seniority, was like. Ever since his skill greatly improved, Ji Ran seemed to have a sense of inadequacy. The mentality that the heroes of the world put in their eyes.

After Ji Ran and everyone sat down in the main hall, he said to Abbot Sanzang: "Uncle Sanzang, there is a personal letter here from our master Tianfeng Zen Master. Please check it." As he said that, he took out something and moved his wrist slightly. Abbot Sanzang flew away flatly.

This was a letter written by Master Tianfeng himself. The two of them were nearly two feet apart, but the letter was written slowly and unhurriedly, as if someone was controlling it.

The hall is small, with only seven monks from the Heart Meditation Hall, eighteen monks from the Prajna Hall, and three monks including Tripitaka, Wuse, and Wuxiang.These people are all first-class and almost first-class masters, so they can naturally see the difficulty of Ji Ran's skill.

Ji Ran transported the letter paper slowly like this, which was much more rare than throwing it vigorously. If he fired the hidden weapon in this way, it could really be called "flying flowers to attack the enemy, picking leaves to hurt people".

Although the people present had extraordinary martial arts skills, they all thought it would be difficult to do it. They all watched the letter flying towards Abbot Tripitaka and watched how he responded.

Abbot Tripitaka faced this letter and understood.He has practiced one of Shaolin's special skills, the flower fingering, and naturally understands the difficulties of this skill. He knows that even if he practices the flower fingering to the extreme, it will only be like this.

Seeing the letter slowly flying towards him, less than two feet away from him, he used all his strength and copied it forward with his right hand.This hand hinted at the technique of grasping flowers, which was quite ingenious, and he successfully caught the letter that flew over.

After taking the letter, Abbot Sanzang did not relax. Sure enough, he suddenly felt his hand heavy and heavy, as if he couldn't hold it.Feeling that he was affected by this, he slowly exercised his skills, and then held the letter firmly in his hand. It was obvious that Ji Ran did not take advantage.

"Good monk, you have trained my Shaolin Kung Fu so weakly!" Everyone was amazed when they suddenly saw Zen Master Sanzang standing up with a dry and skinny head, took a step forward, and said loudly.His voice was resonant, his energy was abundant, and his inner strength was deep. He was the first Wuxiang Zen Master in Bodhidharma Hall.

The Bodhidharma Academy in Shaolin Temple studies martial arts intensively, and those who can be admitted to the temple are considered top-notch masters in the world. As the head of the Bodhidharma Academy, Wuxiang Zen Master has an amazing career.

He had just seen this hand transmit energy through the air. Although he admired Ji Ran's use of internal power, he also felt that the other party was probably not good at Kung Fu and was playing tricks.Seeing that Abbot Sanzang looked calm, he immediately jumped out and wanted to teach him a lesson.

Ji Ran spread his strength through the air and tried his hand, but was unable to detect Abbot Sanzang's martial arts skills.Listen to Zen Master Wuxiang speak.

Seeing him sitting on the left side of Tripitaka Abbot, with eighteen monks from the Prajna Hall behind him, he already guessed his identity, so he stood up and said, "Senior brother is the head of Bodhidharma Academy. His martial arts must be extraordinary. I am deeply honored to be taught this." !”

One of the main purposes of his coming to Shaolin is to learn more from others, so he doesn't care about Wu Xiang's "kung fu practice is so weak", instead he takes advantage of the situation and invites him to fight in order to understand himself more directly.

At this time, in addition to Ji Ran, there were 28 Shaolin Temple monks in the Main Hall.

Although these people have different martial arts skills, they can all be regarded as first-class and near-first-class masters, enough to defeat anyone in the world.If formed into a formation, the power would be even greater.Looking at Ji Ran together at this time, the pressure brought by it was really as big as a mountain or an ocean.

However, when Ji Ran faced the gazes of these people, her expression did not change at all, and she said calmly: "I have heard for a long time that my Arhat Formation in Shaolin Temple is so powerful in the world, but this little monk has never seen it before!"

There will never be a shortage of first-class masters in Shaolin Temple. Speaking of top masters, among the monks present, only Abbot Sanzang and a few old monks behind him should be the top ones.

When martial arts has reached Ji Ran's level, ordinary first-class masters can no longer perform a single move in his hands. As a result, Ji Ran naturally doesn't care about these people.Only the formation of these people can make him feel the pressure.

When Zen Master Wuxiang heard this, he was even more furious. He was about to fight Ji Ran. Suddenly, a tall and thin old monk came over and said, "I am the head of the Arhat Hall. Junior Brother Wu Zhen wants to learn about the Arhat Formation." , you still need to pass the test of being a poor monk!"

The voice was calm but quite heroic. He was none other than Zen Master Wuse of Shaolin Temple.He was born in the green forest when he was young. Although he has been practicing in Zen for decades and has mastered Buddhism, his former heroic spirit has not diminished. Hearing Ji Ran's clear words to challenge the Arhat formation, he can still hold back.

Besides, the Luohan Hall is in charge of protecting the temple. In the past, when people came to Shaolin to challenge their skills, it was the Luohan Hall who usually came forward. Zen Master Wu Se was present, so he had no shirk of responsibility.

Abbot Sanzang and Ji Ran tried a little trick, already knowing that the other party was at least one step behind them.Zen Master Tianfeng also said in his letter just now that Ji Ran had just made a breakthrough and needed to be polished. Abbot Sanzang intended to make it happen. While he was meditating in his heart, he saw Wuse jumping out.

I thought I would like Wu Se to try Ji Ran's martial arts skills.He said to Wu Se, "Grand nephew of Master Wu Se, you've got to work!" Then he said to Ji Ran, "Wuzhen. Come to the martial arts arena!"

Without further ado, Wu Shi moved his right foot forward into a lunge, punched forward with both fists, and launched a "double punch" move like a hammer.This move is a basic skill of the Shaolin School. Although it is simple, it is extremely powerful in the hands of a master.

The rest of the people in the hall cheered loudly when they saw Wu Se using this move so skillfully.Ji Ran also cheered, but did not resist with his hands.He leaned back and avoided this move.He knew that Wu Se's move did not show his true skill.

So don't make a move.Wu Se didn't want people to say that he made a strong attack, so he only used such a simple move at the beginning.But after fighting Ji Ran, he had no other thoughts.

Seeing the opponent retreating, he stepped forward with his right foot, stepped up with his left foot into a left lunge, punched first with the right fist, then with the left fist, then with the right fist, and struck Ji Ran with three hammer blows.

This move, "Three Hammers in a Step," is the follow-up move to the "Double Punch Hammer." Although it is simple, it is extremely practical and powerful.

Ji Ran made a move of "step backwards and push the palm", then moved backward to avoid this move, and said: "Arhat Fist is the mother of Shaolin's magical boxing techniques. Today, the young monk will use Shaolin Fist against Shaolin Fist. Please give me some advice from my senior brother!"

Immediately afterwards, he made a move of "jumping and punching", hitting Wu Se.This stance and "Push the Palm Backwards", one attack and one defense, are the least simple tricks of Lin Temple.He saw that Wu Se was using Arhat Fist, the basic Shaolin martial art, so he also used Arhat Fist to counter him.

As the head seat of the Arhat Hall, Zen Master Wuse has a deep understanding of Arhat Fist. He heard that Ji Ran also used Arhat Fist to deal with it. He didn't need any other skills, just used this Arhat Fist.

Although this Arhat boxing seems simple, it is upright and ordinary, but when it is practiced to the deepest level, it is really powerful.

Wu Se became a monk halfway through, and his martial arts skills are quite complex. In order to convert to Shaolin Kung Fu, he really worked hard on Arhat Boxing. He can be said to be a master of the previous generation. At this time, he will use it. Each move is like the Yangtze River. He is truly a famous master. The demeanor of a senior citizen.

Seeing this, everyone in the hall felt that even if they played, they would not be able to use it better.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of moves have been made. Although the moves are simple, they are not less powerful at all.

Arhat Fist comes from the postures of the Eighteen Arhats. It basically has eighteen moves. Although there are many variations, it never departs from its origin.Zen Master Wu Se and Ji Ran passed a dozen moves. During this period, if the moves were even slightly complicated, Ji Ran would hit him hard.

Under this pressure, he had no choice but to abandon other fancy moves derived from them, and only used simple moves such as "stretch and pull the bow", "Danfeng Chaoyang", "Erlang Danshan", and more than ten moves in a row. , the strength is unprecedented.

Realizing the wonders of boxing has reached its peak.

However, despite this, Zen Master Wuse still felt restricted in every aspect, as if what he was using was derived from Ji Ran.

At the nineteenth move, the basic moves of Luohan Fist were completed. He drew an arc with his palms and launched a move of "Seven Stars". His palms were like electricity, cutting towards Ji Ran's chest.

This Shaolin style's basic Kung Fu "Pian Hua Qixing" seems slow but actually fast, seems light but is actually heavy. Although it is a posture of "breaking into Shaolin", its inner strength comes from "Deified Shaolin", which is the highest level in Shaolin boxing. Realm also comes from Luohan Boxing.

The onlookers cheered loudly when they saw that he suddenly changed his rhythm and used it so skillfully.

The fists and palms of the two people met, and there was only a bang. Ji Ran did not move, but Zen Master Wu Se took three steps back.

He forced himself to stand still and took five steps back. When he was about to step back again, an old monk from the Xin Chan Hall had already stepped forward, stretched out his hand to support him, and then pulled him into the crowd. Only then did the force finally dissipate. force.

But it was Ji Ran who mobilized his inner strength and concealed softness in the strength, which made it hard for Wu Se to disappear.

Before the crowd had finished applauding, they saw Wu Se step back in a hurry, they were startled, and their voice was stuck in their throats, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Ji Ran and Wu Se fought each other for more than ten moves. This was the first time that their fists and palms met. Unexpectedly, Wu Se was so weak that he was defeated in one move.

From this point of view, doesn't it mean that as long as Ji Ran is determined to fight Wu Se, he can defeat him with one move.Thinking of this, everyone in the palace was really surprised.

If Ji Ranchun wins with force, everyone may still be dissatisfied.But the boxing technique used by Ji Ran just now was clearly Luohan Fist. Even each move was much more calm than Wu Se. As for the last move, it was even more superb. Anyone who stepped forward to attack would be blocked by it.

Although some of the people in the field thought that there were more subtle moves, when thinking about this move, they felt that even if they were to take action, they would probably be stopped by Ji Ran with this move, and they would inevitably be forced to retreat by fists and palms intersecting.

As the leader of the Luohan Hall, Wu Se is also the best in Shaolin Temple in terms of skill. He is far inferior to him, not to mention the others.

"Junior brother has profound skills, but the young monk is far behind. I am defeated this time!" After Wu Se stood still, his skills were running, and he felt that his whole body was not damaged. Knowing that Ji Ran was showing mercy just now, he calmed down and said to Ji Ran.

Of course, in his words, he only admitted that his skill was not as good as Ji Ran's, not that of Shaolin Luohan Boxing.

Abbot Sanzang and Ji Ran tried a few moves, knowing that Ji Ran's skill was far beyond the reach of his peers, but seeing that Ji Ran was able to force Wu Zi back with one punch, and even needed the help of Master Xinchantang to eliminate the follow-up power, he knew that among the Wu Zi generation, In terms of skill, he is far from Ji Ran.

Thinking of this, he looked towards the seven elders of Xin Chan Hall, wanting them to take action.As for the Arhat Formation, Abbot Sanzang plans to use it last.

Just as he was thinking to himself, Zen Master Wuxiang suddenly took a step forward and asked for orders: "Master Abbot, I would like to have a try."

Abbot Sanzang Xinzhi knew that although Zen Master Wuxiang was trained by the Shaolin Temple since childhood, in terms of skill, he was only slightly better than Zen Master Wuse. He was not as good as the other senior monks in the Xin Chan Hall, and naturally he was far inferior to Ji Ran.

Just as he was about to refuse, he suddenly remembered a unique skill practiced by Zen Master Wuxiang. He pondered for a while, nodded, and said: "Since you asked for your order, then ask Master Wuzhen's grandnephew for advice. If you are defeated, retreat quickly." Down!"

Although he expressed some expectations in his words, he did not feel that Zen Master Wuxiang could take advantage.He knew that Zen Master Wuxiang's skill focused on suddenness. If one move was ineffective, the next one would probably have no effect, so he only decided on one move.

Zen Master Wuxiang was also aware of this. After hearing what Abbot Tripitaka said, he did not feel that he was being underestimated and walked calmly to the field.Seeing this scene, Abbot Sanzang and others secretly nodded in their hearts, and looked forward to Zen Master Wuxiang more.

Although I don’t expect Master Wuxiang to defeat Ji Ran, as long as he can bring some trouble to Ji Ran, Master Wuxiang’s battle will be worthwhile.

"Junior Brother Wu Zhen, be careful!" Master Wu Xiang stood four feet away from Ji Ran and said to him.

Wu Zhen heard what several people said and saw the movements of Zen Master Wu Xiang. He remembered his Dharma name and roughly guessed the skills used by Zen Master Wu Xiang. He said, "Could it be the Wu Xiang Jie Finger? The young monk has always had it." I’ve heard it, but I haven’t seen it yet, so please give me some advice, senior brother!”

Wuxiang Jiezhi is one of the most profound fingerings in Shaolin Temple, and it is one soft and one firm with Vajra Finger.It has always been difficult to distinguish between top and bottom, and when it comes to the difficulty of training, it is much more difficult than the Vajra Finger.Zen master Wuxiang can practice this fingering technique.No wonder he was able to sit on the first seat of the Bodhidharma Academy.

I'm afraid that the next head of Shaolin Temple will probably be in this person's pocket.After the two of them finished talking.They bowed to each other and then stood still. Master Wuxiang put his hands into his sleeves and stood still.Everyone in the palace was well aware of the danger of such a confrontation, and they did not dare to express their anger.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zen Master Wuxiang suddenly flicked his sleeves, swayed slightly, and clasped his hands together.Xiang Jiran said: "Junior brother, I am ashamed of myself for my magical skills. I have learned from you!" He put his feet back and returned to the formation of the Shaolin Temple.

"The Wuxiang Jiezhi Finger really deserves its reputation, and I learned the lesson today!" Ji Ran Youyou said.When the two confronted each other just now, Zen Master Wuxiang had already quietly issued a finger force from the bottom of his sleeve at some point, without a trace, although it was far from invisible, it was still extremely difficult to detect.

Ji Ran Ruofei is extremely alert.It is also extremely sensitive to changes in the airflow, so it may be difficult to detect the opponent's finger force.Then he did not dodge or evade, and used a body-protecting technique created by combining the body-protecting method of Arhat's demon-subduing technique and the magical properties of Vajra's indestructible body.

When the finger force reaches the body, it returns to the opponent again. This makes Zen Master Wuxiang feel ashamed and calls it a magical skill.It was also Ji Ran's skill that had not been fully perfected. Not only was it not fully returned, but it also showed traces. This made Zen Master Wuxiang aware of this and waved his sleeves to block it.

If this were not the case, I am afraid that Zen Master Wuxiang would be injured by his own Wuxiang Tribulation Finger.

Although everyone around them didn't know the details of the confrontation.But Ji Ran didn't move, but Zen Master Wuxiang stepped back.It can be seen that it was not successful.And those with sharp eyes will even find Zen Master Wuxiang on his sleeves.I don't know when an extra round hole appeared, and it was obviously defeated.

Abbot Sanzang looked at the seven old monks in the Xinchan Hall and said, "Juniors, please take action!"
