Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Zhengde was not in Yingtai today, but went to an ordinary courtyard.

The terrain in this area is wide and flat, although it is dilapidated, it is very secluded.

Emperor Zhengde also liked the new and hated the old, so it was undoubtedly a kind of torture for him to stay in one place to work all the time.This is also the reason why he later sent people to build the Leopard House. The Leopard House was actually just a name, and he didn't want the leopards in it as the posterity imagined.

When the three of Su Mu went, they happened to see Emperor Zhengde and Liu Jin playing in the garden.

Seeing Su Mu and Zhang Yong together, a trace of vigilance flashed across Liu Jin's face.

Zhengde yelled: "Su Mu, yesterday you asked someone to tell me that you met a great master, but this Taoist? I don't know how it compares to you? Hurry up, hurry up, play a few tricks on me. Put on a fist, let everyone open their eyes."

Su Mu groaned in his heart, based on his observations yesterday, this Taoist Chongxu looked modest, he was a master of Taoism, and his self-cultivation was also very good.But a person like Fan was a little arrogant. Emperor Zhengde was absurd and nonsense, and he didn't have the slightest respect when he saw him. I was afraid that this Chongxu would see the emperor's rudeness and say something he shouldn't say, which would offend Zhengde.

While worried, Chongxu made a arrest: "Xiaodao Wudang Chongxu, I have met His Majesty the Emperor."

"It turned out to be you, you really are immortal!" I had to admit that Chongxu's appearance looked very good, Emperor Zhengde's eyes lit up, and he helped him up: "Su Mu said that you are very good at martial arts, I want to see it."

Chongxu sternly said: "When a monk cultivates the Dao of Longevity, what he pays attention to is peace of mind and sense of the truth between heaven and earth. Martial arts are just a small way, but poor people don't know it."

As soon as these words came out, not only Su Mu was startled, but the expressions of the others also changed, especially Zhang Yong's face turned pale.

Liu Jin was waiting for this opportunity, and shouted sharply: "Zhang Yong, Su Mu, you are so bold. You keep saying that Chongxu is a master of martial arts, and I want to recommend him to serve you in front of you. But this Chongxu is just a Ordinary Taoists, aren’t you deceiving the emperor? Your Majesty, you can order someone to take it down and severely punish it!”

Zhang Yong's legs softened, and he knelt down: "Long Live Lord, this..."

Zhengde didn't take it seriously: "What is the crime of deceiving the emperor? It's serious. Su Mu, tell me, what's going on?"

Liu Jin shouted sharply: "Su Mu, say it!" The emperor will be in charge for more than a month, and he is now in the hands of the supervisor of ceremonies, and also the governor of the East Factory. .

Since this Chongxu was so sincere, Su Mu was speechless for a while.At this time, he could only bite the bullet and say: "Your Majesty, Taoist Chongxu's cultivation is profound. I have personally verified it. He is just modest."

The so-called cultivation base, who said it was the cultivation base of martial arts.Can't Taoism and metaphysics?

When Su Mu said so, he gave himself room to make amends.

"Ah, did you check it yourself?" Zhengde is fond of martial arts, and he really admires Su Mu, a master, since Su Mu said so.Then, it is certain that Chongxu must be a real master: "In this way, the Taoist priest must be a real master. I am really lucky today! Yes, the Taoist priest and Su Qing fought, what was the final result?"

Chongxu said calmly: "Your Majesty's absurd praise, Xiaodao is ashamed. Xiaodao admires Mr. Su's talents and abilities very much, how can he be his opponent?"

Zhengde laughed loudly: "Yes, yes, Su Munai is the number one expert in the world. There are not many people in the world who can beat him. Naturally, you are not his opponent. However, there must be a real expert who can be admired by him." .”

No one knows more about Su Mu's martial arts than Liu Jin, and he is stronger than ordinary people, without any martial arts skills.This Taoist couldn't even beat Sumu, so he was probably a parallel importer.He didn't know how much money he spent, so he asked Su Mu to introduce him, in order to fool the emperor.

Hmph, where is it so easy?

Today, let you, a Taoist, show your original shape.

Liu Jin interjected immediately: "Long live, since Chongxu's martial arts are so strong, you can send the guards over to fight him."

Zhengde: "That's exactly what it should be."

As soon as these words were said, Su Mu was also shocked.正德身边侍卫可都是真正的高手，哪一个不是刀口舔血杀出来的富贵，冲虚道人一点武功夫也无，遇到侍卫不被揍成猪头才怪。

It doesn't matter if he gets beaten, why don't I, Su Mu, be implicated.There is no other way to deal with the matter that Ms. Hu explained.

Su Mu hurriedly said: "But there is no need to let the guards come over. Daoist Chongxu's martial arts are very fierce. A light hand can break a person's tendons and bones, and a serious one can kill a person. It is the kung fu of killing people. It is not beautiful to hurt someone in front of His Majesty."

Liu Jin sneered softly: "But I didn't dare to try. Just now this Taoist confessed that he doesn't know martial arts anymore. What else do you have to say?"

Su Mu looked deeply at Liu Jin, and suddenly his heart moved. It was Liu Jin's suggestion that he pretended to be a master and fought with Emperor Zhengde, and said that it was to make him happy together.

He asked back: "Taoist Chongxu's martial art Su Mu has been tried by himself, don't you believe me, Eunuch Liu?"

Liu Jin was stunned, thinking of the joints involved, and suddenly couldn't speak.If Chongxu was exposed on the spot, it would definitely expose Su Mu's lack of martial arts.After debunking Su Mu, if he continues to investigate, he will inevitably commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.

When the time comes, both myself and Su Mu will be unlucky, and the birdman Zhang Yong will take advantage in the end.

After thinking about it, he said angrily, "Since you have Su Mu, you don't need to try."

Hearing Liu Jin soften his mouth, Zhang Yong let out a big sigh of relief and stood up from the ground.

Several people talked for a long time, Zhengde, a bastard, didn't understand, and said: "Speaking so much, it's so boring, Daoist Chongxu, quickly show me a set of martial arts!"

Chongxu still said indifferently: "The small way of martial arts, what's the use for a practitioner to learn these things, but the small way doesn't know it."

Zhengde: "Really not?"

Chongxu: "Xiao Dao really doesn't know any martial arts, one is one, two is two, this thing can't be faked. Practitioners, cultivating the Dao of Longevity, the first thing is to be magnanimous in heart, and you can't tell lies."

Seeing that Chongxu kept refusing to admit that he knew martial arts, Su Mu almost cried angrily: "Well, you Chongxu, Emperor Zhengde made it clear that you are a bastard, you fooled it by dancing a few poses indiscriminately, what are you doing so seriously, It's not a matter of principle.

According to his vague memory, he said: "Daoist Chongxu, don't be humble. Excessive modesty is pride. I remember that you Wudang has a set of Hunyuan Kung Fu, which is very good. Why don't you hurry up and show it to Your Majesty. "

"Excessive modesty is pride. It's interesting." Emperor Zhengde laughed, and his eyes lit up again: "What, Hunyuan Gong, this martial art sounds like a very good name, hurry up, I can't wait!"

"Hunyuan Kung Fu, we have this set of kung fu in Wudang Mountain, but it's just for training the alchemy of the physical body, but it's not a martial art?" Chongxu explained with a serious face.

Su Mu couldn't hold back any longer, and grabbed Chongxu: "Master Daoist, you don't need to be humble before, just show your true skills!" As he spoke, he gave him a hard wink and exerted force on his hands.

Chongxu shook his head, very helpless, so he had to come up with a starting gesture, and practiced slowly.

"Wait." Su Mu's heart moved again, he hurriedly stopped rushing, and pointed to the muddy ground in the garden, "Go there."

"What's the matter?" Emperor Zhengde asked curiously.

Su Mu said sternly: "Taoist martial art emphasizes connecting the heaven and the earth. Here are all stone slabs, not grounded. You still have to step on the loess to show the beauty of this martial art."

Liu Jin was speechless by Su Mu's rhetorical question just now, and felt aggrieved. Hearing this, she sneered: "Will you take off your shoes and stand barefoot on the ground later?"

Su Mu: "No need."

Chongxu: "There is no such thing as saying!"

Su Mu shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, Priest, let's go!"

Chongxu had no choice but to walk into the flower bed, step on the loess, and slowly use the set of moving exercises.

In fact, this set of Hunyuan Kung Fu is the famous moving kung fu in Taoist Inner Alchemy Kung Fu, and it is also the most basic opening and closing Kung Fu.At its root, it's just breathing, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to exercise the strength of the physical body, making the body an indestructible furnace.The tripod is solid, but the dan is self-sustaining.

The truth is a bit idealistic, but from the standpoint of performance, it really has the taste of Taijiquan for health preservation of later generations.

The left and right are just a few moves of "high exploring horse", "grabbing sparrow tail", "oblique flying style" and "single whip".

It was slow and soft, and after only a few glances, Zhengde's eyes widened: "This thing is so slow, can it hit people? You haven't made a move yet, and they have already punched you ten times. Su Mu, you You are not fooling me, are you?"

There was strong dissatisfaction after being deceived in the voice.

Taijiquan has not yet appeared in the Ming Dynasty, not to mention Taiji, even internal boxing, this era is just beginning, it is not as popular as it is in later generations, and it is boasted as the highest form of Chinese martial arts.

The martial arts of the Ming Dynasty paid attention to strength, speed, and skill. Hitting the enemy's vitals with the shortest time and no matter how powerful the force is, this is the real skill of killing people. It has nothing to do with philosophy, Chinese studies, or health preservation.

Zhengde is also exposed to this kind of martial arts on weekdays. Seeing that Chongxu's health-preserving exercises make him slow like a snail, suddenly a kind of evil fire flares up.

Zhang Yong also realized something was wrong, his body softened, and he wanted to kneel down again.

As for Liu Jin, one thing is joyful. The happy thing is that if this miscellaneous Taoist priest offends the emperor, even Zhang Yong and Su Mu will be killed; To be involved.
