Chapter 112 Sword to Sword
Zhang Liheng went on to say: "Although the boy was fortunate enough to learn a few percent of the sword skills passed down by the inexplicable hero back then, he never dared to rely on it. If the boy wants to win three rounds of competitions with all the eminent monks in the Bodhidharma Hall, it is impossible to do it no matter what. , Zen Master Mingkong, do you think so?" Zhang Liheng spoke very appropriately, he only said that his swordsmanship could not be mastered at home, but he was better than the monks in Bodhidharma Hall. The face of Shaolin.

Mingkong nodded slightly, and said: "Benefactor Zhang is modest, everyone knows that the inexplicable hero's swordsmanship was the best in the world, and his knowledge is enough to be proud of the world; the inexplicable hero has nothing but swordsmanship. , Boxing Kung Fu is also hard to find an opponent in the world, although I don't know how much you can pass it on, Master Zhang, but I, Shaolin, will not take advantage of this, and the rest will be determined by you, Master Zhang."

Hearing this, Zhang Liheng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. If the other party decides the rules of the competition, it would be uncertain.So he said: "Competitions are about fairness. It's the same who sets the rules, right? But since Zen Master Mingkong said that the boy dare not refuse, let's mention it. The boy also said just now that he wants the boy to win. It is impossible for all the eminent monks of the Bodhidharma Hall to have three rounds, if this is the case, the boy will win this competition, I am afraid there is no need to fight, the boy just admit defeat here."

When Zhang Liheng said this, he saw that Mingyin and Mingxu were both showing complacency, and he didn't care about it, and then said: "I guess the intentions of all the eminent monks are not the same, then I thought to myself, if the boy is lucky enough to win two games , then even if I won this competition, I wonder if the eminent monks have any objections?"

Ming Kong said: "Amitabha, the martial arts competition proves that two victories in three games, it should be Zhang benefactor, as you said!"

Zhang Liheng said again: "That's very good, that kid is cheeky to mention one more point, the kid only has a little success in swordsmanship, I hope that in the three competitions, I will be lucky enough to compare swordsmanship with an eminent monk from the Shaolin Dharma Hall ;The rest of the two competitions will be decided by Zen Master Mingkong, and the winner of the competition will have to be resigned to fate."

After listening to Zhang Liheng, Ming Kong replied: "The two things that benefactor Zhang said are very reasonable. If the benefactor doesn't say anything, he should act like this. The inexplicable swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world. Unfortunately, it has disappeared for more than a hundred years. It is rare today. If there is an opportunity, there is no reason to miss it. For the competition of swordsmanship, I plan to ask Junior Brother Mingxu to ask Master Zhang for advice; and for the remaining two rounds, I will wait for Master Zhang and Junior Brother Mingxu to compete. Is there any disciple in the Bodhidharma hall who is willing to ask benefactor Zhang for advice, benefactor Zhang, do you think this is good?"

Zhang Liheng had already made up his mind, no matter what, he had to win the sword competition first, and he would not necessarily lose in the other competitions, so he didn't care about anything else, so he replied: "Everything should be arranged by Zen Master Mingkong." Liu Wuxin who was beside him was still a little worried all the time, and said in a low voice: "Brother Liheng, after you have tried the swordsmanship in the competition, if you lose in the remaining two rounds, don't force yourself to lose." Zhang Liheng only replied: "I understand, Brother Wuxin, don't worry."

Zhang Liheng took two steps forward with his sword in his arms, and said, "Since that's the case, let's start the first competition now, but I don't know how Master Mingxu wants to compare?" Mingxu dragged his fat body like Maitreya Buddha together Said: "The old monk and Master Zhang have a swordsmanship competition. It seems that this Buddhist hall can't use it well. Master Zhang and the old monk went to the martial arts training ground of Damo Hall to compete. When you click, you will have your own conclusion."

After finishing speaking, he went to the training ground first, Zhang Liheng immediately followed, followed by Mingkong and Mingyin.The martial arts training ground in Bodhidharma Hall is an empty stone field with a length and width of nearly ten feet. At that time, monks and disciples practicing martial arts had already vacated a large area for Zhang Liheng and Ming Xu to compete swords.

Ming Xu asked his disciples to bring a long sword that was not sharpened. It was more than three feet long and less than four feet long. The bronze body of the sword was smooth and bright.At this time, most of the disciples in the Shaolin Temple knew that Uncle Mingxu of Bodhidharma Hall was going to compete with others in sword moves, and they all rushed to the martial arts field. For a while, many Shaolin monks or lay disciples surrounded the martial arts field. .

Zhang Liheng held his sword in his arms and said: "Master Mingxu, can we start?" Mingxu said with a broad and fat face: "Master Zhang, we can start anytime!" After finishing speaking, he held the ancient sword with his big hand and pinched it With a sword formula, Zhang Liheng casually swiped across it. Upon seeing this, the long sword Wentianjian was unsheathed in his hand, and pointed obliquely at the ground, making an extremely ordinary swordsmanship opening gesture.

At this time, it was just after noon, the sun was slanting slightly, but the sunlight was still fierce. The Wentian sword and the ancient sword in Ming Xu's hand were facing each other, and two different sword lights flashed.Seeing that the battle between the two of them was about to strike at any time, the noisy training ground fell silent in an instant. The Shaolin disciples around either looked curiously at Zhang Liheng, a young man who had not reached the weak crown, or looked at him with reverence. The kind monk Mingxu.

At this moment, the confrontation between Zhang Liheng and Mingxu was on the verge of breaking out, but when he heard the Buddha's name "Amitabha" resounding in the field, Zhang Liheng couldn't help being startled, why would someone come out to interrupt at this time, from the voice, it can be heard that this person is very powerful , but not the monks of Mingkong Mingyin, these Bodhidharma halls.

Looking at the sound, the Shaolin disciples at that place had already given way to a path several people wide. A big monk with a face full of Buddha's light slowly walked towards Zhang Liheng and the others. Ming Kong and Ming Yin, two Bodhidharma The old monk in the hall also frowned.

I saw that great monk walked up to Ming Kong, made a Namaste salute, and said: "Minghui has seen two senior brothers, Ming Kong and Ming Yin, and today I heard that our Shaolin Dharma Hall is going to compete in martial arts with that little benefactor on the stage. , come and enjoy it.”

Ming Kong said to the great monk: "Junior Brother is the abbot of this temple, and all matters in the temple need to be adjusted by Junior Brother. It is difficult to get this today, so please have a good look at Junior Brother Mingxu's Bodhidharma swordsmanship and the inexplicable tricks of that little benefactor Zhang." It's a competition between swordsmanship."

It turned out that the great monk Minghui was not only Mingkong's younger brother, but also the abbot of Shaolin Temple. When he heard that Zhang Liheng was using an inexplicable sword technique, he didn't have much reaction, he just let out an "oh" and said, "Senior Brother Mingxu is He is the monk with the highest attainment in swordsmanship in our Shaolin Temple, and this little benefactor Zhang possesses an inexplicable swordsmanship that is unparalleled in the world more than a hundred years ago, so this competition must be very exciting."

Then Minghui walked a few steps into the arena and said: "This is also a rare competition in Shaolin in recent years. Little benefactor Zhang and senior brother Mingxu, why don't you let me be a witness?" At this time, Mingkong His complexion changed slightly, as if he was somewhat displeased with Minghui's appearance.

Mingxu chuckled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Abbot!" Zhang Liheng saw that the great monk Minghui was much younger than Mingkong and the others, and unexpectedly he was also a Shaolin monk of the same generation. No longer thinking about it, he bowed his hands to Minghui and said, "Thank you, Master Minghui!"

After Minghui made a Namaste salute to Zhang Liheng, he retreated to the side, and the sword fight between Zhang Liheng and Mingxu resumed.Zhang Liheng saw that Ming Xu was holding his sword in place, so he was not polite, he stepped forward and made the first move towards him.

Zhang Liheng's first inexplicable sword technique was "following the shape like a shadow", which he had just learned. He moved with the sword, and the sword became powerful in an instant. Mingxu, who had always had a kind expression on his face, finally had a slight change.But seeing the man and the sword approaching in a blink of an eye, Mingxu faced Zhang Liheng's sword, his face became solemn, his wrist was turned, and a sword slanted out, as fast as lightning, and the tip of the sword pierced Zhang Liheng's chest as if it had eyes. point, this move is exactly the "little ghost knocking on the door" in Bodhidharma's swordsmanship

Zhang Liheng was already a master of swordsmanship, so he could naturally see the unusualness of Mingxu's "little ghost knocking on the door" move, which suddenly revealed the direction of his body.And the moment Ming Xu drew his sword, he also felt a powerful sword force that was about to be released, and he couldn't help being awe-inspiring. The power of this sword wielder was incomparable to the Shura swordsmen on the banks of the Yangtze River back then.

Zhang Liheng's figure changed direction as soon as Ming Xu's sword came out. With the blade of the sword, he flicked away a little bit of Ming Xu's ancient sword. Immediately, his steps were staggered, followed by a move of "Long "Smoke falling into the sun" is still a sword move that he has just learned.

At this time, Ming Xu who had been using static to move finally moved, and saw his broad body stepping away with extraordinary sensitivity, and what he was stepping on was the Shaolin School's "Great Move and Move".While Mingxu's figure was moving rapidly, the ancient sword in his hand also "swish, swish" three swords in a row, creating a burst of light and shadow.

As soon as Zhang Liheng's "Long Smoke and Sunset" came out, it immediately collided with Ming Xu's three sharp swords, and there were three crisp sounds of "Ding Ding Ding". This round, the two sides just fought evenly.After this move, Ming Xu's tall figure leaped away, Shaolin disciples didn't dare to express their anger when they saw this scene, they only thought that Ming Xu was forced to retreat by the young man's sword move and suffered a disadvantage.

But only Zhang Liheng and the eminent monks of the Ming Dynasty who watched the battle knew that Zhang Liheng's "Long River Sunset" just had the advantage of making the first move. If Ming Xu made the first move, Zhang Liheng would have to jump away at the end.But this already surprised Zhang Liheng enough, the swordsmanship of Ming Xu, the most accomplished swordsman in Shaolin Temple, is really extremely high, and he was able to calmly resolve his own inexplicable swordsmanship.

Faced with such a master of swordsmanship as Ming Xu, Zhang Liheng not only did not feel timid at all, but was excited and eager to win.When Mingxu landed and stood firm, Zhang Liheng said in his mouth: "Master, pay attention to receiving the move!" The human sword flew up, drawing three sword circles, one circle after another, this move he had already used "Drawing the Earth Circle".

Hearing Zhang Liheng's voice, Mingxu's eyes flashed, and he replied: "Good time!" He showed a heroic spirit that is rarely seen among monks, and at the same time, the ancient sword in his hand went straight into the palace, and he wedged the sword into it without hesitation. Go among Zhang Liheng's three sword circles!
