Chapter 5 Bodhidharma’s Remains, Sanfeng Blood Meridian
Hearing the name Zhu Polong, Inoue Jushiro suddenly raised his head, his temperament still as cold as a sword unsheathed.
"You dare to call the crocodile by his first name?!"
Xu Xing just shook his head and sighed:
"This boxing move aims to unite the body and mind. The strength should be ups and downs, hiding the law in the void, and the mind is like a dragon entering the sea. In the end, there will be no taboos and no restraints.
You have only strengthened your skin and muscles, but have not even strengthened your muscles and collaterals. How can you reach your whole body and control your breathing, ups and downs?
Such a good punch is used in your hands, it is really a shining pearl, and it is unsightly. ”
Xu Xing understood the secret of Jushiro Inoue's movement just by looking at it. His vision was not unsightly.
His tone was like a senior teacher evaluating a junior's skills, naturally revealing his deep insights and understanding of martial arts, and giving him the majestic bearing of a martial arts master.
Everyone knows that what Prince Baolong relies on to conquer the four seas is not his unparalleled wealth or the tens of thousands of pirates, but his domineering boxing skills that are unparalleled in the world.
Zhu Polong is the successor and adopted son who inherited Zhu Tiandu's mantle.
It is said that this man was originally a Southeast Boxer. After being adopted by Zhu Tiandu as his adopted son, he changed his name to Zhu Polong.
Since the bombardment of Jiangning Mansion in the past year, Prince Baolong has gradually lived in seclusion and handed over all the specific affairs of his subordinates to this loyal and adopted son.
The imperial court suspected that Zhu Tiandu had been seriously injured by several great masters in that war. They sent assassins many times to find out the truth, but they never returned.
It is said that these killers did not even see Zhu Tiandu in person, so they all died in the hands of Zhu Polong. Therefore, he was listed in the imperial court's "Wuzhilu".
"Wuzhilu" was produced by the late Emperor Zhengde and recorded the 108 most famous boxing techniques in the world, as well as the most threatening folk boxers.
Most of these people are senior masters of martial arts in various places, and the fact that Zhu Polong is ranked among them as a junior shows how unfathomable this person's boxing skills are.
But from what Xu Xing said, he not only learned the boxing skills of this sea master, but he was also able to escape unscathed?
When Jushiro Inoue heard this, he calmed down and sneered:
"People from the Central Plains, although your boxing skills are high, you have not become a master after all. How can you save your life under the young master?"
Facing the Japanese slave’s doubts, Xu Xing looked calm and unmoved:
"Zhu Polong is indeed a great master of the generation. When we met on a narrow road, I was seriously injured before my martial arts was complete. I lay in bed for three months and narrowly escaped death.
Even though I have been catching up over the years, he has not stood still, which is good. If I have the chance, I will verify it with him again. ”
Although Inoue Jushiro wanted to refute, deep down he had to admit that with the means and magnanimity of the man in front of him, there was no need to deceive him.
He slowly opened his mouth:
"You..."
As soon as the word came out of his mouth, Jushiro Inoue took action.
Even though he knew he was defeated, Inoue Jushiro would never sit back and wait for death. Instead, he would try every means to find a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation.
No matter what happens, he will fight Xu Xing to the death!
He Maocai felt a strong force pulling up his collar, and his whole body flew into the air, like a human cannonball, and flew towards Xu Xingfei.
Jushiro Inoue leaned down and used He Maocai's body to hide his figure.
He held the broken blade that Xu Xing had crushed just now, and held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands. His whole body seemed to be attached to the knife, spinning with the help of his waist, and slashed out with a determination that would kill both jade and stone.
This move is a sacrificial sword skill in the Shinyin-ryu, and it is combined with the "step up, turn over and chop" in the swordsmanship of the Central Plains. It requires all the strength of the whole body to be exploded in the attack. If it fails, it will be a benevolence.
Seeing He Maocai flying towards him, Xu Xing didn't even think about it. He crushed his feet with such force that it seemed to shake the entire dungeon, making a dull and loud noise.
With a roar, Xu Xing rushed in front of He Maocai. He stepped forward with his left foot, twisted his waist and abdomen, and used his right leg with all his strength, like a gun rod, to catch He Maocai's body, then shook it aside and threw it to the ground.
Before Jushiro Inoue had time to feel happy about Xu Xing's move, he saw that Xu Xing's right leg didn't even touch the ground. He shook, bent, and bounced, and then he immediately changed his stance and kicked again.
Although it went through many changes of force, the speed was still incredibly fast. It was like a straight kick without any changes.
Jushiro Inoue didn't expect Xu Xing's moves to be so fast. He couldn't react at all and was kicked in the chest from the front. His eyes bulged out, his sternum was completely shattered, and his ribs were inserted into his internal organs. His body flew straight back, without any breath.
——Northern faction stabs the feet and shoots the feet!
The authentic foot-piercing technique is known as Five Steps and Thirteen Spears. This style of "piercing the spear's feet" trains the power of penetrating a big pole.
This force is not thrust straight out, but is broken out by the bounce. To develop this kind of strength, one must first activate the muscles and collaterals throughout the body. In boxing theory, it is said that "the spine is like a hanging snake."
Xu Xing started standing at the age of four, and now he has stepped on countless floor tiles and worn out many pairs of cloth shoes before he has developed this strong north leg, which evolved from battlefield killing methods, to a superior strength that is both strong and soft. situation.
This kind of powerful killing move, which has been tempered for many times, can easily kill a small Japanese slave swordsman.
In the darkness, He Maocai, who was thrown to the ground by Xu Xing, was so painful that his eyes were black. As soon as he groaned, a big hand picked him up by the collar.
With the help of a little light seeping in from the entrance of the dungeon, He Maocai reluctantly raised his head, looked at Xu Xing, and said tremblingly:
"Who are you?"
"Who am I?" Xu Xing looked at him with strange eyes, "First arrest my apprentice, then send people to invade the house, and find Japanese pirates to frame him..."
At this point, Xu Xing felt a little ridiculous and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Now, you ask me, who am I?"
Although he was smiling, his eyes were extremely cold, as cold as a sword blade across the sky, passing by He Maocai's throat.
This sense of imminent danger made He Maocai's thoughts race rapidly. His eyes suddenly opened wide and he growled incoherently:
"You, you are Xu Xing?!"
This can't be blamed on He Maocai. He originally thought it was Japanese pirates who brought people in.
Who would have thought that a "country boxer" in the report would be so courageous and capable of doing such a heinous thing as breaking into the prison?
And it was really done for him!
Looking at He Maocai's expression, Xu Xing knew that the Zhejiang inspector really didn't take such a "little thing" to heart. The style of the Zhesi Yamen can be imagined.
He shook his head and didn't want to talk nonsense to this kind of person, so he pointed directly:
"Tell me, where are Zheng Michang and that Ma Ningyuan?"
Before He Maocai could speak, Xu Xing had pinched off the fingers of his right hand, causing him to scream in agony.
As soon as the sound reached his throat, it was suppressed by Xu Xing's punch, turning into a low groan that echoed in the dark dungeon.
"Believe me and tell the truth, it will be good for you and me."
He Maocai is an old criminal, so he is naturally no stranger to these methods of torture to extract confessions.
To be honest, in his opinion, Xu Xing's methods were still a little immature and could not deal with those tough guys.
If you serve as an errand under him, you may be in trouble all the time.
But when this trick really happened to him, He Maocai couldn't say the word "childish" no matter what.
What's more, how many people working in the yamen are worthy of the title of "hard bones"?
Even if there was such a person, he would not be able to sit in the position of third grade.
Obviously, He Maocai is not the exception. Therefore, there was no need for Xu Xing to pinch off his second finger before He Maocai informed Zheng Mi Chang's whereabouts.
He also clearly explained the plans of the Hangzhou government and Shen Yishi to destroy the dikes and flood the fields.
But He Maocai is a man with a big heart after all. Although common sense tells him that there should be no madman in the world who is so bold as to sneak into and assassinate another third-grade official after breaking into the prison.
But he also kept a cautious eye and did not reveal all the information about the Black Stone people.
Although he looked down on the Blackstone Organization, He Maocai had to admit that the methods used by those masters were indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.
If this man is really a life-threatening thief, then let him be buried with him!
But what kind of person is Xu Xing?
After practicing boxing to his level, his eyesight is so high that ordinary people can't even imagine it.
Even in the dark, Xu Xing could clearly see the subtle movements of the muscles on He Maocai's face.
Sensing that trace of hesitation, Xu Xing immediately crushed He Maocai's second finger, and the white bone stubble pierced the flesh.
Stronger pain surged like lava, hitting every part of He Maocai's body, suppressing all his little thoughts, causing him to scream miserably:
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"I say! I say! There are people in Black Stone and Black Stone, stay with them!"
Blackstone?
Hearing this name, Xu Xing suddenly became alert.
When he went north to hone his boxing skills in the past, he heard about the unfathomable depth of this organization from a friend who was a fellow warrior.
It seems that half of the remains of Bodhidharma, the founder of Zen Buddhism, fell into the hands of the leader of this organization.
In the martial arts, there have always been rumors that when the spirit and body are polished to perfection, a martial artist can use the realm of boxing to break the void, trigger the real fire to burn the body, burn out the turbid air, prove the innateness, and completely fade away from the mortal body. , to become a real immortal.
Although this statement has never been confirmed, it has been recognized by the martial arts for thousands of years that there are two people who are closest to, or even suspected of, entering this realm.
One of them is Bodhidharma who came from afar during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. There is another person, Zhang Sanfeng, a sloppy Taoist who once established a sect in Wudang Mountain.
The remains of Bodhidharma and the Sanfeng Blood Meridian they left behind are the two "immortal treasures" rumored in the world. Countless boxers believe that these two treasures contain the great secret of how nurture can reverse nature and how humans can become immortals.
Xu Xing's friend was named Lu Zhu, who was born in Shaolin. He was determined to find this ancestor's treasure and settle all the disputes caused by it.
During this process, Lu Zhu encountered the masters of the Black Stone Organization many times. However, after a certain encounter, the Black Stone members no longer showed interest in Bodhidharma's body.
Lu Zhu guessed that it might be because half of Bodhidharma's body had fallen into the hands of Black Stone.
He also discovered that all of these people had advanced boxing skills, at least to the level of a great boxer, and most of them were famous masters who had hidden their identities.
There seem to be two masters who don't know the details, and their power is not inferior to that of established forces such as Qingcheng and Emei that have been established for a long time.
Hey, this is really interesting. Blackstone also wants to get involved in this kind of thing?
After being surprised, Xu Xing's eyes immediately filled with excitement. If there was a black stone master here, he would really like to see it.
Martial arts rarely classify the strengths and weaknesses of warriors in detail, because this is inaccurate and can lead to trouble.
But regardless of what is said on the table, the conventional wisdom still exists.
The way of martial arts, to put it bluntly, can be summed up in four words: strengthening one's strength and training one's body.
Through pile skills, breathing techniques and other methods, you can develop unique strength and be able to apply it in actual combat as you wish, which is considered a master's degree in boxing.
For example, the yellow-faced man's Eagle Claw Fanzi Fist. The sign of practicing it to this point is to "see the sound at will and never forget it in the air."
This is a great achievement in fighting style. It is exciting and not limited to boxing.
In the old saying, this is also called boxing on the body, which can be called a martial artist.
After gaining strength, you need to use this strength to train your body.
Practicing boxing and pile skills requires hard work, so it is "practiced" by winding silk, but training the body requires hard work, so it is "refined" by burning with fire.
The so-called body training is to forge an inhuman body from the mortal body with copper skin, iron bones, golden muscles and jade skin. The ferocity and cruelty in it can be imagined.
In the practice of body training, every step forward is extremely dangerous. It can range from going crazy and becoming a cripple to losing your life.
The process is certainly dangerous, but once you succeed, with a flick of your arms, you will have thousands of pounds of divine power, and your physical body is strong enough to withstand the guns of the Shenji Battalion without dying. In the martial arts world, you are also respected as the "Great Boxer".
Xu Xing is now a peak boxer who has perfected his skin, flesh, muscles and bones, and his body is close to "inhuman".
If he could go one step further and refine his boxing skills into his internal organs, cut bones and cleanse the marrow, he would be able to achieve the status of "grandmaster".
The master of martial arts regulates the five internal organs, locks in vitality, restrains and refines Qi and blood, and can nourish all parts of the body. It can kill enemies dozens of steps away, moving like ghosts and gods.
If a martial artist of this level joins the army, he will become an unparalleled general in a horse-riding company. If he becomes a bandit, he will be a great bandit who dominates the world. If he takes root in martial arts, he will become the founder of a sect.
As for the masters above, they are already the first-class saints in martial arts. They are like hidden dragons in the clouds, easily invisible.
When Xu Xing was silent, He Maocai struggled to raise his head and said sadly:
"There is no record of a person like you in "Wuzhilu". What is your origin?!"
Xu Xing said calmly:
"Now that I've asked, I want you to be clear. My master's surname is Yue, with the upper and lower characters being taboo and the lower characters being sea."
Yue Danhai?
He Maocai was obviously very impressed by this name and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Eight-armed Shura?"
Immediately, his face turned gloomy and he smiled miserably:
"I have been convicting people in the name of Japanese pirates all day long. Unexpectedly, I was actually exposed to the truth..."
As early as thirty years ago, the name of Yue Cuo Hai was already known all over the world.
He was Zhu Tiandu's best friend since he was young. He was nicknamed "Eight-Armed Shura" because of his fast boxing skills. He was also listed in the "Wuzhilu" and was known as "the second person in the world".
Yue Buhai was a descendant of Yue Wumu, and he had the Yue family's Sanshou Kung Fu passed down from his family. Although he rebelled because his fields were flooded and the government forcibly annexed him, he was also very strict and only allowed his subordinates to plunder. Official ships are not allowed to harass coastal people.
Zhu Tiandu, on the other hand, had no taboos and would do anything. Even if he united with the Japanese slaves to invade the southeastern coast, he could do it.
Both of them are martial arts masters with strong hearts. Although they could tolerate each other at first, the matter of colluding with the Japanese pirates has touched Yue Duhai's bottom line, and they can only use fists to resolve the conflict.
In the end, Yue Duhai's "Dapeng Mingwang Fist" was unable to compete with Zhu Tiandu's "Sudden Thunder Jia Tianshashou". Several big tendons were broken by the shock, and his energy was blown away. From then on, he changed his name to Liu Guo and went ashore to practice martial arts. Pavilion, prepared for this remaining life.
Although He Maocai didn't know the whole story, he knew Yue Duhai's identity.
Over the years, he had punished many people for "collaborating with the Japanese and conspiring to rebel". Unexpectedly, he encountered a real rebel.
For a moment, He Maocai felt a feeling of emotion in his heart, "The cycle of nature brings unsatisfactory retribution."
