Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 423: Coming to the country proudly

According to Zhang Miao's research, this Aolai country was once a large country on the coast of Dongsheng Shenzhou. There was a big mountain in the country called Huaguo Mountain. Now it seems that this mountain should be the mountain in the water that he dived down.

Aolai Country was also a prosperous place in ancient times, with prosperous trade and a large population.

Zhang Miao dived more than a hundred feet in one breath. Once here, the light is very dim, and the sea is dark, which makes people feel frightened.

However, Zhang Miao can see. Even in the sea, he can see the scenery three to five miles away. In the sand below him was the ancient city of Aolai. Now that we're here, where should we go to find things related to ancient Qi refining techniques?

Zhang Miao thought for a while and decided to look for any stone tablets or carvings. After soaking in this seabed for countless thousands of years, only this kind of thing can be preserved.

It's just that as time goes by, these things are buried under the thick silt and sea sand. It is not easy to reveal their traces...

Zhang Miao thought for a moment, then slowly landed on the seabed. Then, he slowly raised his hand and started to punch.

When boxing on the bottom of the sea, what the punch moves is not the air or the wind, but the water it stirs and the undercurrent it stirs up. Zhang Miao's punch was so powerful that the sea water was stirred up like a thick paste by his stirring. As the seawater rolled, it also picked up the silt and sand on the seabed and flowed outward along with the current.

With this punch, all the mud within dozens of feet around Zhang Miao was rolled up. In just a moment, the undercurrent mixed with the mud spread out, blowing away the mud at Zhang Miao's feet.

Zhang Miao looked down and saw that this was just a stone road like a street, and it didn't look like there was anything good. So he walked forward slowly. As he walked, he stirred the sea water with his fists, just like a sweeping robot, clearing away all the mud and sand around him.

If someone sees it, they can see that there seems to be a waterspout cleaning the mud on the bottom of the sea. The entire sea water is stirred up, the mud is turned out, and the fish and clam shells under the mud are all disturbed. Get out of this sea area.

Zhang Miao is like a big catfish on the bottom of the sea. Under his push, the sea beads on the bottom of the sea are also swept up with the sand. The sea beads roll upward along the sea water and adhere to the aquatic plants and corals on the surface of the ocean.

Xing Xiaorong, who was looking for sea beads, suddenly felt a strange movement in the sea water. She was startled and thought it was some kind of sea beast or sea monster swimming in the sea. This kind of movement would only occur if sea monsters or sea monsters were making trouble below.

However, she did not see the black shadow of the sea monster Siren, but she saw some dots of light coming out of the sea and falling on the surrounding water plants and corals. Seeing this, she felt happy again, because these shiny things were sea beads!
She swam over quickly, cut open a handful of water plants, and pulled out a sea pearl the size of a thumb. Although she didn't know what was going on under the sea, it was a good thing for her.

The churning sea water turned up the sea beads on the bottom of the sea!

Not only her, but other female pearl divers scattered around her also observed this. After a brief period of suspicion, these pearl divers who wanted money at the risk of their lives immediately went to work and searched for sea beads more carefully...

An hour later, several Haizhu girls surfaced for air. Several people gathered together to talk about this matter to each other. They all had expressions of surprise on their faces. One sister said: "With the strange movement of the sea water, could there be a sea monster or sea monster?"

The other sister also nodded. Although the sea pearls they collected just now are more than what they usually work for a whole day, this situation also represents danger.

The third sister thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Rong, Brother Zhang is also under the sea. He will protect us. After all, he can even defeat the sea monster."

Xing Xiaorong nodded hesitantly and said, "I guess we can. As long as we are careful, we should be fine..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw a person suddenly appear next to her, but Zhang Miao couldn't hold on and came up for air. Seeing Zhang Miao appear, several pearl divers immediately gathered around him, and then talked about what they saw.

Zhang Miao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, this is probably the noise I made. You don't have to worry. If there are sea beasts, I will drive them away."

The women looked at him doubtfully, how could his normal body make such a movement. But the thought that he could make a sea bull cry with a hammer seems to be believable.

Zhang Miao didn't care about them. After he took a deep breath, he plunged into the sea and swam towards the bottom of the sea.

Several pearl divers looked at each other and dived into the water. No matter what, it is still important to make money.

Zhang Miao continued to clean up the seafloor with his fists. The seafloor was turned up wherever he walked. Although the sediment would eventually fall after he left, it would not affect anything.

Suddenly, Zhang Miao's eyes lit up because he saw a stone tablet. This stone monument stood in a place similar to a large courtyard. Zhang Miao quickly swam over and took a look and found that the courtyard seemed to be the martial arts academy of Aolai Kingdom. This large courtyard should be the school grounds.

Thinking of this, he felt refreshed and quickly looked at the stone tablet. The stone tablet was corroded by sea water, and it was actually so pitted that it was difficult to see the writing. But Zhang Miao has an exquisite mind, and with his sharp thinking, he can still know what is written on the stone tablet. After all, the inscriptions are still there.

After looking at it for a while, Zhang Miao felt a little frustrated. The words on the stone tablet did not seem to be any boxing practice methods, but some rules and regulations. It's like a monument to encourage learning.

Zhang Miao was a little disappointed, but he immediately cheered up. This inscription is not a cultivation method, but this is a martial arts academy, so there should be other gains!
Although Aolai is a small overseas country, it admires the big inland countries and imitates the big countries, establishing martial arts and liberal arts academies. Studying literature in the liberal arts academy and practicing martial arts in the martial arts academy. There should be some basic martial arts to strengthen the body here.

With this thought, Zhang Miao started searching more seriously. At this time, the Wuyuan had been buried under the sea for who knows how many years. The houses had no roofs and the remaining ruins could not preserve anything. There are several large holes in the remains of the east wing. It can be vaguely distinguished that these are the large holes left by the stove. This should be the kitchen...

The west wing only has some rotten wood and a few masonry platforms, which look like they might be beds. This should be a dormitory.

There is a main hall to the north, but the main hall is empty, and I don't know what was there before.

After looking around, Zhang Miao was very disappointed. There was nothing here. The sea water and time had consumed everything here, and it seemed that nothing was left...

But at this moment, Zhang Miao suddenly seemed to catch something from the corner of his eye. In a remote part of the main hall, there seemed to be some words carved on the corner of the wall. Zhang Miao went over to take a look, only to find a few crooked small characters. These small characters were carved into the corner of the wall with the force of someone's finger. In human terms, someone here cut out a few characters on the wall.

'Learning is boring, but even if you don't learn, you won't live forever, and learning is useless. It’s time to go! ——The master of Shuiliandong stayed. '

This thing is like the small characters that were secretly carved on the table when I was studying in the past. It seems that no matter who it is, it will destroy the teaching supplies.

Zhang Miao couldn't help but smile. But he quickly realized that the handwriting had been corroded by sea water and ravaged by time, so why could he still see it so clearly? Although the handwriting is ugly and ridiculous, it is three-quarters of the way into the wall and is vigorous and powerful. It is not something that ordinary people can leave behind.

"If you can't live forever, learning is useless" This clearly means that you don't like what is taught here! This is the handwriting left by a seeker from ancient times!

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao became a little excited. He has studied Buddhism and knows that Buddha has a theory of cause and effect. This word will last for millions of years, the sea water can do nothing, and time cannot change it. What does this mean? It means that the person who wrote this word must have achieved great success in spiritual practice and become a person with great supernatural powers. This is why this word has power, which cannot be destroyed by time and naturally cannot be worn away.

This country of Aolai has also produced famous supernatural powers?
Zhang Miao thought about it carefully, but this ancient Aolai country disappeared so long ago. Apart from such a name, there are almost no records of it. As for any famous magical powers, Zhang Miao is not aware of it. Can't remember.

But just because he couldn't remember it didn't mean that Zhang Miao had nothing to do.

He held his breath and read this line of small words carefully. He didn't know how long he had been watching, but when he saw that he couldn't hold his breath, suddenly, he saw a thin line leading into the distance.

Seeing this, Zhang Miao was refreshed. This line is the line of cause and effect! Although Zhang Miao has no magic power, he does not need magic power to see the line of cause and effect. This is an ability that comes automatically when Buddhist monks practice Buddhism to a certain advanced level. Although Zhang Miao separated the cause and effect from Ksitigarbha, this ability has been retained. Maybe the world thinks that he is still the "sage" who has practiced Buddhism very deeply.

With this thin line of cause and effect, Zhang Miao looked at the other end of the line. The other end of the thread is connected to the mountain in the sea, and seems to be directly submerged into the mountain...

'Well, this shows that the person with great supernatural powers is also destined to this mountain. Is this mountain his dojo? Or is it his place of enlightenment? With this thought in mind, Zhang Miao quickly swam towards the mountain.

After half an hour, he finally swam to the mountain, and then he began to search carefully.

After so many years, the mountains have long been filled with thick silt and sea sand, and there are also a large number of corals and aquatic plants growing there. The light here is dim, but these marine creatures are still very tenacious in their survival.

Zhang Miao searched for a long time. After changing his breath several times, he finally found a cave entrance blocked by aquatic plants and corals on the mountainside.

When he saw the entrance of the cave, Zhang Miao suddenly had a feeling that his opportunity might be inside it! So he swam in quickly, and after passing through a short passage, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a stone hall appeared in front of him.

The stone hall is quite clean, with no aquatic plants or rocks. There are stone tables, stone chairs, and stone bridges and caves on the stone hall. If it were not flooded by sea water, this should be a unique small courtyard. At least there should be mountains and water here, otherwise why build this stone bridge?

Looking left and right, I found that there was a couplet at the door, "Blessed Land in Huaguo Mountain, Water Curtain Cave and Heaven". The font was strong, simple and elegant. This word was obviously not left by the great supernatural being. The handwriting of the great supernatural being was not so beautiful.

Could this place be the place of cultivation for that great person with supernatural powers?

This idea came to Zhang Miao's mind again. He immediately started searching in the cave, searched around, and actually found a stone wall for him.

There is a set of boxing skills carved on this stone wall, and its name is Houerquan. The mural on the stone wall also shows a monkey practicing boxing. Monkey Boxing paintings have many words but few words, and the writing is easy to understand. It seems that it is for children with low intelligence to learn.

And this boxing method is an excellent boxing method that strengthens the body, grows muscles and bones, polishes strength, and cultivates fundamentals! This boxing technique is much better than the boat boxing that Zhang Miao learned. If you insist on comparing it, it would be like a textbook written by an old farmer in the countryside and a textbook written by a peerless scholar.

Zhang Miao looked at the mural for a long time and remembered the monkey fist in his heart. I couldn't help but think: "This boxing technique may seem simple, but it is also extraordinary. That person with great supernatural powers must have learned this boxing technique to lay a good foundation..."

As he was thinking this, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

'No, if a person with great supernatural powers learned this boxing technique, then why would he go to a martial arts academy to learn it? It is impossible for Aolai National Martial Arts Academy to have such martial arts scriptures. 'If you want to say that a small country in Sail has profound martial arts scriptures, Zhang Miao will definitely not believe it. If it has such knowledge, can Aolai country still be a small country? If the Aolai country, which possesses this peerless martial arts, can only live as a small country, eating and waiting to die on the beach, then what kind of terrifying place will those big countries on the land be?
Thousands of years of time have passed away. Zhang Miao thought about it for a while and was amused by himself.

'Why do you think so? Am I still worried about my old friend? No matter whose it is, it's mine now! '

Zhang Miao comforted herself in this way, and then searched carefully. Unfortunately, apart from the Monkey Boxing on this mural, Zhang Miao can no longer find any other inheritance. Although I am a little disappointed, this is normal. What you can't get is normal. Where can you find so many adventures?

Zhang Miao swam out of the water curtain cave and headed towards the sea. And after he swam away, the entrance of the Water Curtain Cave swayed slightly, and aquatic plants and corals suddenly grew wildly, blocking the entrance of the cave tightly, making it impossible to tell that there had been a cave entrance here.

Some opportunities are single opportunities. As long as someone gets them, they will disappear.

Zhang Miao, who knew nothing about all this, returned to the water, but she was also satisfied.

The Monkey Boxing he obtained is indeed a good way to strengthen the body. As long as he practices hard for a while, he should be able to accumulate enough energy, and then step into the realm of refining energy.

There are not too many realms in the ancient cultivation techniques, which are to refine the essence into Qi, refine the Qi into spirit, refine the spirit to reverse the void, and refine the void to combine with the Tao. The realms are both distinct and blurred, and they can coexist and be superimposed together. The masters of refining the spirit and counteracting the void are also refining the spirit and transforming the energy. Refining the energy and transforming the energy will not affect the practice of refining the void. The main point is that once it is achieved, it will be achieved. If it is not achieved, it will not be achieved.
