The wind blows the plum blossoms over Guanshan

At night, warm winds blow from the south.Changsheng wanted to go to bed early, but couldn't fall asleep because of his excitement, so he put on his clothes and planned to go for a stroll in the backyard.Unexpectedly, on the side of the corridor, Jian Chilu was leaning on the railing and looking into the distance.Changsheng approached slowly, and Chi Lu turned his head, still looking gentle and harmless.Changsheng felt that even if Chi Lu was a Miao, there was nothing to be afraid of.Miao people are not monsters, they have three heads and six arms, besides, isn't Chi Lu very good-looking.

"Chi Lu, you haven't slept yet?" Chang Sheng walked slowly behind Chi Lu and asked softly.

"When you're away from home, it's always difficult to fall asleep in a strange place. By the way, this is what I promised to give you. When I came back, I saw that the light in your room was turned off. I'm afraid it will disturb your sleep."

Chi Lu took out two pieces of paper from his arms.Changsheng took a look, it was a map of the acupuncture points of the human body, it was drawn very delicately, and the handwriting on it was also graceful and elegant, really like a person, and another piece of paper was written with formulas for acupoint acupuncture.

"Changsheng, acupuncture seems to be easy to learn, but it is not easy to really master it. It is best to learn acupuncture with the help of internal strength, and you seem to only have a little light work, and the dantian is empty. Although you can learn acupuncture without internal strength, you must master the strength It's very difficult to get it right." Chi Lu took the pulse of Changsheng and concluded so.

"Chi Lu, your internal strength should be pretty good, right?" Chang Sheng listened to Chi Lu's explanation, his eyes lit up again, full of yearning for learning internal strength.When he first learned Qinggong, he also paid attention to the use of breath, but he only knew how to do it a little bit, so a little bit can only make him run more briskly and jump higher.The master who taught him was only a little bit better than him.If he had learned the internal skills well, he might be able to fly up and down as freely as Chi Lu, like a bird.

"My internal strength is not very good, and most of the martial arts I learn are based on cleverness. With exquisite moves and a little internal strength, martial arts are much better than ordinary people. The school with the best internal strength is Baguamen, Baguamen The disciples have solid internal skills and ordinary martial arts, and they have won championships in martial arts competitions all the year round."

"Is inner strength difficult to learn?"

Chi Lu said in a deep voice: "That's right, whether you can learn internal energy or not depends on your physical condition, comprehension ability and opportunity. It is within the Bagua sect, there are only a few people who can learn internal energy well, and many people have entered the Eight Diagrams If you want to learn it, I will copy the simplest inner method tomorrow Here you are." Chang Sheng nodded quickly.

"Changsheng, do you want to participate in the martial arts competition?"

"Yes."

"Your kung fu should not be a problem against ordinary swordsmen. If you meet someone who has both internal and external kung fu, you may have some difficulties. Remember, sometimes people who look strong are often easier to deal with. On the contrary, it is better to look thin Those who deal with it often have their own tricks."

After hearing Chi Lu's words, Chang Sheng couldn't help nodding his head in agreement.He felt that Chi Lu was a rare good person, and Miao Min would not attack innocent people for no reason.But thinking of what Murong Zhaohui said, Chang Sheng wanted to know more about Chi Lu, after all he didn't know anything about Chi Lu other than his name.

"By the way, Chi Lu. You said that you will not be able to sleep in a strange place. Where is Chi Lu's hometown? I came from Jingzhou City."

"My hometown is not too far away, it's in Wuling County. In the depths of the mountains to the west of Wuling County, I need to trek across mountains and rivers."

"Chi Lu, are you... Miao people?"

Chi Lu chuckled: "Wuling County is the territory of Miao people and Ba people. My father is from Miao people and my mother is from Ba people. Chi Lu is just my first name, and Long is my surname."

Chi Lu answered very frankly, without any intention of covering up, but Chang Sheng felt embarrassed.He felt that the Miao people were fine, they were just a little more mysterious.If all the Miao people were like Chi Lu, he would think that the Miao people were cute, and they would give everything to a person who met him by chance.

"It turns out that your full name is Longchi Lu. I thought your surname was Chi and your name was Lu."

"Most people with the surname Long in the Chu region are Miao people. People always have scruples about Miao people when they travel around the rivers and lakes, so I will hide the surname and only say the first name."

"The rumors about the Miao people in the world... are they true?"

Chi Lu chuckled and rubbed Chang Sheng's messy hair: "A lot of them are true, but don't worry, the Miao people won't target you for no reason for a pure little brother like you."

Changsheng lowered his head slightly, blushing a little.

The bright red flag was fluttering, and the shouts and drums were thunderous.Although Changsheng was very excited, he could only watch from the tea house next to the martial arts arena.This building is called Tingyu Building, and it is located near the martial arts field, with an excellent location.They were on the highest floor of the Tingyu Building, overlooking the six arenas, all of which were missed.The Tingyu Building has an excellent view, bidding has been made before the martial arts competition, and the highest bidder wins.Murong Zhaohui bought the top floor of Tingyu Building and spent a lot of money in order to allow Chang Sheng to watch the situation on the field from the excellent location of Tingyu Building.Chang Sheng felt that if he hadn't wanted to participate in the competition, Murong Zhaohui, who has always been frugal, would have saved the expense.

After the martial arts competition started, Murong Zhaohui drank tea calmly, only occasionally glanced at the battle situation downstairs, and didn't seem to care.Chang Sheng was a little impatient, and when he didn't know how many times he looked back at Murong Zhaohui, Murong Zhaohui finally put down the teacup.

"Changsheng, it's just the beginning, don't worry."

"But the people who stand on the ring at the back are stronger, aren't they more difficult to deal with?"

"Wait a minute, Chief Jiang and I will check the situation for you."

There are a total of six arenas in the Wulin Club. Since the start of the competition in the morning, there has not been a warrior who has defeated ten players in a row.One man fighting against ten men requires a lot of physical strength. Although many chivalrous fighters are good at martial arts, they are all defeated by physical strength.Looking at the fierce fighting on the field, Changsheng was a little excited, but also a little anxious.Most of the people who played just now are reckless, with brute force but no wits, strong explosive power, and weak stamina.If you fight with them and use your skill, maybe ten of them can be solved in a short time.

"Jiangling, first ask a hidden guard to go up and try it out, it's right in front of us in the arena."

"Yes." Jiang Ling cupped his fists and went down, Chang Sheng looked at Murong Zhaohui eagerly.

"Changsheng, I asked the dark guard to go up to let you take a good look at the process of the competition and how to win more easily. Of course, even the dark guard may be defeated by a master of the rivers and lakes. You have to fight against him Learn from the experience in the competition, watch it carefully."

The dark guards, the most special group of guards, are extremely skilled in martial arts and have treacherous actions.When Murong Zhaohui left the palace, Emperor Cheng allocated Jiangling to him, and sent ten dark guards with high martial arts skills to protect him.The dark guards are very mysterious, Changsheng can't even feel their existence, and can't find anyone.Changsheng wanted to discuss with them, but was rejected by Jiangling, saying that he was messing around.He knew that they might be accompanied by hidden guards every time they traveled, but he couldn't feel it.To be honest, Changsheng has not met any of these ten people so far.He mentioned to Murong Zhaohui that he wanted to learn kung fu from the dark guards. Murong Zhaohui only said that the special training received by the dark guards was too cruel. The normal procedure is to learn some sword and stick techniques.

Right in front of them is a burly man guarding the arena.That big man is nine feet tall, his eyes are like copper bells, he has defeated six people in a row.After the sixth man was kicked off the court by him, the big man looked a little tired and his breath was messed up.Someone tried to capture him while he was tired, but he held on until the seventh man fell.The martial arts people below were a little uncertain how long this big man could last, and no one came up to challenge for a while.

At this time, a young man in black cupped his fists to signal to come to the stage, and said loudly, "I'm Li Qing from Jingzhou."

Changsheng's eyesight was so good that he could see the plum blossom pattern embroidered on his collar, and he immediately knew that he was from the Palace of Chu.Murong Zhaohui loves plums. Since the beginning of this year, the guards in the palace of Chu, including the hidden guards, have used plum blossoms as identification marks, and most of the clothes Changsheng wears are embroidered with plum blossom patterns in the open or inconspicuous collars.The young man called Li Qing was probably in his early twenties, with a mediocre appearance and no special features, and he was completely unremarkable in the crowd. This kind of appearance was a good material for a secret guard.

That big man was not bad at martial arts, besides his brute strength, he also had a bit of wit, so he defeated all seven of them, and only three of them would be able to enter the next round.At this time, I saw a young man enter the field. Although I had never heard of the name in the newspaper, he did not dare to underestimate the enemy.Li Qing stood still in the distance. After waiting for a while, the big man seemed a little impatient, and took the initiative to attack him.Li Qing saw the flaw in an instant, and threw the big man to the ground.

There was a burst of exclamation from the audience, the big man got up from the ground, and attacked Li Qing again, but his physical strength and agility were not as good as that blow just now, he was at the end of his strength, and after a few moves, he was defeated by Li Qing.Seeing that the big man was restrained and unable to move, the referee pointed to the plain-looking Li Qing and said, "Li Qing of Jingzhou wins!" Hearing the referee's announcement of victory, applause erupted immediately.

Chang Sheng watched everything on the field without blinking, until Murong Zhaohui patted him on the shoulder before he regained his composure.The match on the field continued, and people continued to challenge Li Qing, but he won within three strokes.Except for the last two challengers who took him a bit of trouble and fought for a while, the rest almost all won easily.Li Qing defeated ten people and only received one slap, so there was no serious problem.The referee announced that Li Qing was qualified for the next match, and asked someone to take him to get the certificate on board. He clasped his fists as a signal, and left the game calmly, without saying a word.

"Changsheng, did you see that? You have to be fast when you are fighting on the field, and you have to know where your opponent's weaknesses are. Solving your opponent as soon as possible can maintain your strength. It is not so easy to fight against ten people in a row." Changsheng nodded. He felt that his His kung fu should not be as good as that of the hidden guard who just played.If you play, I am afraid that some fighting will be indispensable.

On the first day of the martial arts competition, less than ten people were qualified to board the boat. Changsheng spent the whole day watching in the teahouse, carefully studying the martial arts routines of various schools, and thinking about them in his heart.On the one hand, he also practiced swordsmanship a little. Jiang Ling and Chi Lu gave him guidance these two days, and Chang Sheng felt that he had made a lot of progress in the battle.

After one day's competition, Murong Zhaohui and Jiang Ling discussed the issue of Changsheng's playing, and it was not until midnight that they decided to let Changsheng play in the evening of the second day.After watching the battle on the first day, Changsheng already knew the martial arts routines of many schools and the fighting methods that some people in the Jianghu are accustomed to. On the third day, there are usually many masters, and I am afraid that Changsheng will not be able to break through, so it is safer to choose the second day.In the evening, when the game is about to end, there are not many people ready to play at this time, and the chance of winning the game should be greater.
